The String of Destiny
Father and son talk

Erwin looked at Alex's motor. He saw a hole in the body of the engine and also a pile of sand mixed with oil in a container. Seeing his father go silent, Alex felt even more guilty.

Not long after, Bang Herman was Tamrin's uncle came. Seeing the man wearing a suit, Bang Herman immediately tidied up his clothes.

"Good afternoon, you must be Alex's father" said Bang Herman welcoming Erwin.

"Sir, does the father take care of my son's motorcycle?"

"It's very important, I take care of your son's motorbike" he said and smiled kindly.

Tamrin speechlessly gawked at the attitude of her uncle of one hundred and eighty degrees. Usually, Bang Herman always speaks the regional language and at will to his customers. Now, he saw his uncle acting and speaking so politely.

"Can we talk somewhere else?"

"Sure!" bang Herman's reply.

Bang Herman took Erwin, to a seat some distance away from Alexander and his three companions. From a distance, Tamrin watched her uncle and sat down and folded his arms.

"Bang Herman, his cloaked-behave turn is auto polite," Tamrin told his own uncle.

"Maclum, the Boss' father is not an indiscriminate person," Wulan said.

"You're right Wulan, the aura of a leader is really visible. I'm sure he's very respected at work" Tiara said.

Tamrin turned to Alex, she saw Alexander bowed limp. Then he said, "Why Boss? From the beginning, it seemed limp on."

"I was just wondering what my dad was talking about. This incident really made me feel guilty. If you know early, it is better to go to school by public transport only. Besides, what will my father say later? Will I not, my pocket money will be reduced?!"

"Already the Boss, what has happened let it happen. All of that was God's will, after all not yet what the Boss thought happened. Relax, stay positive thinking Boss," replied Tamrin.

Tiara hugged Alex tightly, she smiled sweetly at her lover. Then he said, "Flame said Tamrin. I'm sure, everything's gonna be fine."

Alexander smiled and said, "Thanks guys."

Tiara looked at Alex's bike and said, "But I swear, the person who did this is really evil. If I see you, I'll make them regret it!" he said with annoyance.

In the heart of Alexander and his two companions said, "If he had known."

Ten minutes had passed, Bang Herman and Erwin had finished talking. The two of them, again walked towards where Alexander and the others were.

Seeing his father walking with a smile, made Alexander curious about what they were really talking about. So was the thinking of Tamrin and the others.

"Alex, while your bike is pinned here. Hearing the damage, inevitably you have to ride in public transportation.

"Alexander resignedly said, "Yes Dad."

"It's getting dark soon. Come on, we'll get Dad's food to take you home" Erwin told Alex.

Erwin walked into his car. Alexander paid tribute to the others. He said to Tiara, so as not to go home and he would let him know if the situation was safe.

Afterwards, Alexander followed his father into the car. In the car they both stayed silent. Only the sound of music enlivened the atmosphere in the car.

Alexander prefers to enjoy the trip.

So long on the way, they all arrived at the Chiki Mall. Alexander and his father went inside the Mall while the driver waited outside. Erwin invites his second son to visit a restaurant that is familiar to Alex.

"Steak restaurant" Alex said as he looked at the restaurant in front of him.

Erwin turned to his son and asked, "Have you ever been here?"

"Yes, Dad. Once," he answered.

The two of them, went inside and sat down at the dining table inside the VIP room. Inside the room, it was full of unique and interesting decorations. In addition, the temperature inside feels cooler than outside the restaurant.

"How was your life at school?" asked Erwin to his son.

Alexander smiled then replied, "Interesting, much better than his previous school life."

"Thank God, I'm glad to hear that. Did someone bully you?"

Seeing the look on his father's face made Alexander speechless. He remembered the quarrels and the bad deeds done by Inspiration.

Alexander smiled and replied, "No Dad," he replied lying and acting as if nothing had happened.

Alexander's reply did not fool the Father. He felt that Alexander was hiding something let alone the incident that hit his bike.

"Your worm is sand, it's impossible for sand to enter by itself. Someone must have put it in on purpose. You don't have to lie to me. If someone does something bad, just tell Dad."

Alexander looked at his father with guilt. He said, "Yes, Dad. I'm sorry Dad, because Alex is off guard now that Dad's motorbike has become damaged. The bike was my first gift. Again, Alex is really sorry for not being able to keep Dad's stuff."

Erwin smiled then said, "You don't have to apologize. What happened to your bike, purely because of a disaster. I'm proud of your responsibility on the bike Dad gave me. Never mind, no need to be sad. I can buy you a new bike."

"No need, Dad."

"Why? I want to buy you the coolest bike."

Alexander smiled and replied, "Indeed, there are a lot of bikes out there that are so much cooler. But for Alex, Dad's bike is so much more valuable and cool than any bike. As much as possible, Alex wants to keep taking care of her to the end."

The answer of the son to the second, makes the Father touched and proud. In contrast to the first child always replace damaged goods with new items. Alexander prefers, takes care of and looks after him as much as possible.

Two servants came to bring the order on the tray. After putting the order on the table, Alexander and his father began to enjoy dinner.

Erwin was delighted, seeing Alexander's expression eat so enjoying his meal. It is very different when inside the house always eat in a hurry and go straight into the room. He wondered what kind of life Alexander lived in school.

"Alex, I want to know. Now what kind of busyness in school?"

"Commissive? Yes, most in school learning continue to participate Extraculricular. If there are no extracurricular activities, go home and sleep."

Erwin smiled then asked again, "Interesting, are you going to follow what Exkul?"

"Excule Band," replied Alex.

"Great, I didn't think you had any interest in the Exchul Band" the Father praised his son.

"Thank you, Dad. Actually, rather than being attracted more to the forced."

"Forced? Whatchu mean?" erwin asked so curiously.

Alexander began to tell about the search for his interest in following Ekskul. He had approached every Exkul, but because he was too nervous and bad luck he experienced made Alexander not find his bright spot. As he walked down the school hallway, he saw the door of the music hall open.

He walked into the music room. Later, he began playing two guitars that had been available at once. Alexander played it, he enjoyed it too.

A few days later, Alexander returned to the music room. This time, he brought his friends. They saw Alexander playing the guitar.

Unexpectedly, Kak Tigor is a member of OSIS as well as the Chairman of Extracurricular see it all. He gives two options, first out or join the Exckul Band. Because it has already been, inevitably they join the Exkul Band.

"According to Dad, actually you did not join because you had to. Joined because of destiny. Maybe the gods have shown you the way. Who knows in the future, your band and your friends will become famous" Erwin told his second son.

"Amin," reply briefly.

"Keep, what's your band's name?"

Alexander smiled then replied, "Single Band."

"Any name, I love it. I want to see your band perform" Praise The Father makes Alexander very happy.
