The Throne Of The Heart
Section 36

Lashira tightened the sweater lining her body as the night wind again blew with her firmness. He is currently sitting on the balcony of his room while looking at the star-studded night sky.

In the past, he would have waited for a shooting star in a situation like this. But ever since her mother died she realized that such things would not change anything.

Fear of the reality that was happening around him made Lashira shut herself tightly from the outside world. And when did it all start? Thought Lashira who realized herself started to open up.

Drrt! Drrta!

The vibration of the mobile phone in his hand made Lashira aware of all her thoughts. He smiled happily to see the name of the contact on his phone screen.

“You can't sleep?” ask Greyson across the street.

Lashira cleared her throat slowly. “When back?” ask Lashira quickly.

“I haven't left you long enough and now you miss me?”

Lashira's face flushed in embarrassment hearing him, she was grateful that this was not a video call. “Stop talking nonsense. I don't miss you, okay?”

“OK, you don't have to confess because I'm being kind today. How are you doing? Did something happen there? Norbert and Severin take good care of you, right?”

“Tuh! Ew! Your exaggerated attitude is crumbling again!” lashira said in an irritated tone.

“Then something happened there. Then I'll finish my business here and come back sooner.”

Lashira exhaled a rough breath. Not not at times like these, Lashira thought. He didn't want Greyson to ruin someone's life just because of him. He was not so valuable that Greyson had to shoulder the hatred of those whose lives the man destroyed.

“I'm okay Grey. I do want you to come back quickly, but I also do not want you to be in trouble because of me.” lirih Lashira.

“Alright .. but you have to tell me if something happens.”

“Wait, you are not in your room?”

“Woah! How do you know?” ask Lashira.

“The sound of the wind is very disturbing, come in I want to hear your voice more clearly.”

Lashira's face heated up again after hearing Greyson's sweet words. And according to Greyson's orders, the girl went straight into the room. “I'm already inside...”.

“I know.”

On the other side..

“You're done talking to ‘your girl’ it?”

Greyson only cleared his throat but his eyes were so sharp that he did not like the tone of the man in front of him.

“Why?”

“You must be careful with your tone, son.” Greyson warned the boy before him sternly.

“Alright, old man. So now you're here to pick me up?”

Greyson nodded in confirming. “You know that I sent you not free?” greyson said to the boy.

“Of course, so what should I do?”

“Close with me move to Indonesia, I will watch you directly there.” The man agreed.

“So you came straight here as soon as?” asked the man and was taken in by Greyson.

“Listen to David, I have a little time. After your school today is over you should come with me to Indonesia. My men are taking care of your belongings in the apartment, and I have also told my men to prepare all the necessary files for your move.”

Greyson patted David's shoulder slowly. “You should get used to it even having to be faster than this if you get a task from me. That way you'll be able to survive in this world.”

After that Greyson just left, leaving the annoyed David half dead. His appetite disappeared instantly.

“I have to say what to the girl?” david muttered to himself.

And sure enough, once he got home from school, Greyson's men dragged him into a car that would drive him straight to the airport. There was Greyson waiting for his arrival.

There was really no rest at all, even he had not changed clothes and was still wearing a school bag on his back.

“Stop looking at me like that. You better sleep because this trip takes a very long time,” Greyson said casually.

With a slow step Lashira out of her room was about to go down to the kitchen. “You sleep well?” norbert asked as Lashira passed the dining table.

Lashira simply raised her thumb in exchange for her answer. The girl filled a teapot and joined Norbert at the dinner table. “Where's Sven?”

“Sven?” ask Norbert.

“Severin, I called him that because he just kept calling me ‘si sebastian’. Who is sebastian? My name is Lashira Ardiansyah, why did she even call me that?” lashira said while scowling annoyed.

Norbert smiled amusedly at Lashira's chattering. “You don't know what sebastian is? Sebastian means to be a friend without certainty and he calls you that because he says your status on Greyson's side is very unclear.”

“It's not clear how? Greyson even proposed to me, even though it wasn't romantic at all.” Lashira scowled angrily as she recalled Greyson's extremely vague proposal last time.

“Your application? Greyson?” Norbert almost choked on his own food after hearing Lashira's words.

Lashira nodded. “He proposed to me in his office, I myself am not sure of what he said at that time.”

“Then, you received it?” ask Nobert.

“Considered? Can I refuse?” ask Lashira back.

“Eh I have to go to the office immediately, if you need anything, just tell the waiter or one of Greyson's men. Severin's still backwoods, so be fine until Severin comes.” Norbert hurriedly finished his meal and left there as quickly as possible.

After Norbert left, Lashira ran an activity that some people found very boring but very fun for her. After finishing her meal, Lashira read the new book she bought together with Severin last time on the balcony of her room.

And when the waiter told him that he was now entering lunchtime, he kept the book and went downstairs to eat. After that he will relax in the gazebo at the edge of the pool while waiting for a message from Greyson.

As the day wore on, Lashira changed her clothes and swam around to spend some time somehow walking a little longer than usual. Satisfied swimming he cleans himself by soaking while waiting for dinner to be ready.

After finishing the bath he went down to dinner, there was Severin and Norbert who seemed to have just returned home. “You will continue working again? Can you guys take some time to have dinner with me? I felt weird eating alone this afternoon.”

Norbert and Severin looked at each other, they agreed and went to dinner with them.

“Greyson contact you?” lashira asked curiously because today she had not received a single message from Greyson.

“No. Did he not contact you either?” tanya Norbert who was instantly taken in by Lashira.

“Of course he didn't contact you, maybe he was busy with his women who were there. You know that, right? Need a guy of Greyson's age?” the Severin fishing rod that actually managed to tear apart Lashira's feelings.

Nah!

Lashira put down her cutlery very tightly, her appetite disappeared instantly. In his heart he cursed Severin who said such irresponsible things to him.

“After Greyson returns, finish your history.” Norbert said after Lashira went back to her room.
