The Tippingback of Rania's World
Episode 74 - Accompany Me

"This novel. Tumben you like fantasy novels?"

Anjani placed two thick novel books on Rania's desk.

"Ah... Want to read again. It looks interesting" replied Rania. "Can I take it home?" continued.

"Just bring. I also want to focus on learning in the next few days. The Olympics are two weeks away" Anjani said.

"Well, we'll both be lonely, dong," Alvi said.

"Overr... I will miss you too, you know.." Anjani replied.

Alvi and Anjani look at each other.

"Hey, Rania. You immediately forget us after getting a novel, yes," said Alvi.

Rania was busy flipping back the brownish-yellow sheet of paper. He seems to care nothing for his two friends.

"Ehem! How's it? What a thrill is the novel?" Anjani draws the novel that Rania is holding.

"Hehehe... Sorry... What was?"

...🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺...

Still at school, first break.

"Mikko, can you come to my house tomorrow? My parents are not home" Qiandra asked.

"Well?" chirping Mikko. Her lips formed a sweet smile.

Then Qiandra realized something. His face was red with embarrassment.

"Ah, I don't mean like that" he exclaimed, covering his face.

"Qiandra is brave now, yes..." Tempt Mikko again.

"Ih... That's not what I meant... But like this... Hm.." suddenly Qiandra forgot what she was willing to say.

"You must want something from me, right?" guess Mikko.

"No! I mean yes. But it's not what you think it is" Qiandra said.

"Then what? Well... I'm a little disappointed, huh." Mikko smiled as she winked.

"Mikko...!" Qiandra hit Mikko's shoulder in annoyance.

"Adoohs... This chick or a boxing athlete, anyway? Da... Da... What's the?"

"Huh, be careful if you get to me again" Qiandra threatened.

"Yes... Da... This time I'm serious."

"Well... You recall? The weird room and the basement I told you about? I found it, but.."

"Aren't you brave?" Mikko interrupted Qiandra's remark.

Qiandra.

"So you want me to come with you to investigate?" guess Mikko again.

Once again, Qiandra nodded.

"Can aja. How much do you dare pay for this expensive detective?

Why don't you take the goddess and the nurul?"

"Roof. Males baget took them. How much do you want to be paid? I can do it, though."

Mikko frowned, "Emang anyway, since Qiandra was close to me, she rarely got together with Nurul and Dewi. Qiandra also never bullied again," Mikko thought.

"Qian, is it okay for me to come home? Does your friend come home often?"

"Never. I think it's even the first. I'm rarely at home" Qiandra replied as she finished her potato snack.

"Yes anyway. Your family is often out of the country for business. You rarely go to school first" Mikko commented.

"But I'm still a champion, right?" qiandra was proud.

"Yes... You've been the queen of IPAs for a long time."

"But aren't you afraid of me? I can tell you when you are in the dark room again" Mikko said.

"Before that happens, then my bodyguards will finish you first."

Gluey!

"This is the son of a businessman or a mobster, huh?" mengko.

...🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺...

Rania continued to observe every carved curve in her bracelet. He even copied it onto a paper. The teenager then matched it with carving images or symbols found in the novel book.

Of course not exactly the same. The novel is a fictional story. And the symbol is only the work of the author of the book.

"But if this is what does it mean to try? More like writing in ancient inscriptions that's it. What language... Try it?"

Rania thought hard to solve the puzzle of the bracelet.

"But why am I so crazy, huh? Novels with reality are very different. Who would bother to write a spell on a bracelet like this. Where the language is no longer detected."

Rania is desperate. It is like walking on the surface of a ball that takes it to the same side again.

"But I used to dream about magic, and how to explain the full moon?" Rania was thinking.

"Aah! In the dream I heard them speaking Romanian. And if this bracelet is from my mother, then it's also from Romania, my grandmother's hometown."

"Is this also Romanian?"

Rania took her phone and opened the search engine gugel. In an instant, he felt he was a geologist and historian who researched historical objects in the world.

After an hour of surfing in gugel...

"Why doesn't anything fit, anyway? Starting from Romania, Russia, Germany, Greece... Until ancient languages such as Celtic, Germanic, Balto Slavic and others..."

The spirit that Rania had built, collapsed instantly. Though he was pretty sure he could solve one of his mysteries this time.

"Arrh... I'd go crazy if I were gini. Audrey's mediation failed, Mikko's business was getting run down. Do I have to live my gini life until I get old?"

"When do I have to find Grandma Esther again in the wilderness?"

Rania is having a terrible inner war.

"Is it not a writing or a symbol, but images that have meaning in each image?"

"Hmmm... Like Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics or inscriptions belonging to the Mayans and Incas of the Americas?"

Drrt... Drrtt... The sound of a cell phone ringing. But it's not Rania's.

Rania also checked every room in the small house, "Ah, it turns out the mother's HP. I haven't come home from the market yet, have I?"

Rania's pupils shook to see the number on the mother's HP.

"I didn't see it wrong, did I? I couldn't forget to recognize the number of my assistant. What's your mom calling here?"

Rania picked up her phone immediately.

"Hello?" greet someone across there.

"God! It's the voice of mama" cried Rania in the heart.

"Yes, Ha-hello?" rania's voice was shaking so nervously.

"Is this really Jenia Princess? I'm Chloe Eilaria Austeen," asked Chloe again.

"This is Jennia Putri's phone number. But I'm his daughter. Mom's back at the market. W-there needs to be a-what yes, Ma.. Um... Auntie," replied Rania carefully.

It is strange to call my mom a aunt.

"Oh, this is Livy Talisa, yes." Chloe's voice sounded excited.

"Why do you know Livy? Is it because of the design contract yesterday?" Rania feels a little jealous, because she knows Livy better than she does.

"No, Aunt. I am Rania em... Brother of Livy." Rania refrained from mentioning her true identity, even though her heart was screaming.

"Oh, so. Greetings, Son. Say hello to your mother. Next time I'll call again" Chloe hung up.

"It's the first time I've talked to my mom in months. Oh my... I'm so happy. But also at the same time sad," said Rania. "Greetings? It means your mom doesn't really know me anymore."

His heart was still beating fast, his head was processing and digesting the incident just now which was arguably very impossible.

Even all of his thoughts about the bracelet had disappeared instantly.

"Mama? First time calling mom? What do you mean Rania?"

Rania's blood flowed profusely hearing that remark.

"I don't think she's home," Rania's mind was terrified.

What does Rania have to answer to avoid suspicion?
