The Tippingback of Rania's World
Episode 95 - Then Who Am I?

Geck! Geck! Geck!

"Qiandra's? What are you doing again, son? Already eaten?" call Nico.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

There was no answer from the room. But Nico faintly heard the chatter of two women.

"Ah, maybe Qiandra is with her friend."

Nico turned his body towards the room. He stopped visiting his grandson.

"Mr Nico? Is there a need with Miss?" ask one of the servants.

"Ah, no. I just want to eat with Qiandra. But he seems to be busy" said Nico.

"Miss is not busy, sir. He was just chatting with his new assistant" the waiter said.

He knew that their parents had been very lonely since their son and son-in-law had been arrested for drug use and distribution.

To this day, they are still in detention. Rehabilitation studies were also rejected, because they circulated the prohibited items in large quantities.

Decades of prison sentences await them. Court after trial they will also face later.

So right now, the grandson is the one who can comfort him.

Just like this, the waiter helped Nico to meet his granddaughter.

Chequek! The door to the room is open.

Two girls of the same age were sitting opposite. Their faces looked unfriendly. Like the color of their opposite hair, black and white blond.

Nico focused on the owner of the black hair.

"God! Rania's grandson!" nico in front of the door.

Simultaneously, Rania and Qiandra turned to the door.

"Campus me! Just now I was thinking, how can they both not meet each other," Qiandra thought inwardly.

Nico continued to step into the room. His eyes did not blink at all looking at the crossbred girl.

"Grandfather?" qiandra. "Why is Grandpa here?" qiandra said kindly.

"Ah, my grandfather wanted to take you out to eat together, Qian. I can't believe you brought Rania here" replied Nico with a face of sumringah.

"How's this? Why isn't Grandpa in Ireland, even here? I should pretend I don't know him, or say hello to Grandpa as his granddaughter?" Rania glanced towards Qiandra to ask for a response.

But it seemed, Qiandra was even more confused than Rania.

"Son, thank you. You fulfilled my grandfather's request. You really brought Rania here."

"It looks like grandfather misunderstood," Qiandra said with her tight teeth. Her eyes are red. It was obvious that he was holding back the crying.

"I'm sorry grandpa. What did Grandpa's words just offend you?" nico said he was sorry.

"I'm not as good as Grandpa thought. I didn't bring Rania here. It was precisely he who came to work as my assistant," Qiandra explained.

"Ah... Sorry, Son. But no matter what your attitude is, Grandpa still sees you as a good boy."

"I'm grandpa's granddaughter! I am the daughter of this family! If he's grandfather's grandson, then who's my family? Who are my parents? Where's my family? And why am I here?"

Qiandra's crying broke. He was hysterical while crying.

I don't know why, Rania was crying. Shouldn't he be happy? One of his family knew him.

"Son, whoever you are, you're still grandpa's granddaughter. You're also part of this family." Nico rubbed Qiandra's shoulder to calm the girl down.

"I'm sorry grandpa. Let's talk about this next time. Now we'll just eat, okay?" persuade grandpa.

Some servants who accidentally heard it also became excited. Rania rushed out of the room and met them.

"Agni, Riska, Ay... Here for a second," call Rania.

"I know, you hear everything. But I hope you don't say it to anyone, if you still want your head and body to be together" Rania said.

The deg! Scary.

The three maids then nodded and immediately left the place.

...🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺...

"Qiandra, I'm sorry. I don't know if Grandpa is here" Rania said.

Qiandra was already a little calmer than earlier, and grandfather was calling the servants to bring a snack to the room.

"I told my grandfather I have a friend named Rania" Qiandra said.

"Eh?" Rania does not believe.

"Grandfather kept saying, if Edlyn Rania Princess is his grandson. I wasn't. But I kept denying it. And again, the one I know is Princess Rania," Qiandra explained.

"Qian, I know your heart is very good. But somehow, the environment is forced to change you" Rania said.

"You've met and you know Edlyn Rania Princess very well, long before we switched places" Rania told the publication. "But, just like now, our relationship can't be said to be good."

"Without you acknowledging your status as an Austeen family, I've also felt the strangeness from a long time ago. Even though I can't remember anything" Qiandra said.

"Do you know how much my heart hurts? Everyone says, why am I different from my parents? Why am I incompetent? And why-why others," confided Qiandra.

"Then what can I do but live my life now? I don't know who my parents are, if they're not this family. I also don't know where to go, if you take back this place of mine."

"Not to mention the sycophants here and there. Which one should I trust, and which one should I follow?"

Qiandra looked extremely frustrated. His eyes were soft and his body was trembling.

Rania only realized one thing, after having a closer conversation with Qiandra. The girl looked much thinner than she used to be. Until the bones protrude out. What really happened to him, anyway?

"I can't answer all those questions, Qian. But all I can do right now is support you from behind. Like our original plan," said Rania.

Nico looked at the two teenagers with pride. Qiandra is able to control her emotions, even though she is currently at a low point. While Rani is able to think maturely, for the common good.

A few minutes ago, they looked like two tigresses fighting over one male. Rough and brutal.

Nico did not mind if the two girls became his grandchildren.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

"Excuse me, Miss."

"Yes, please come in."

"There was news from Jupri and Hendra about Fania" Sania said.

"What's that?"

"They found Fania's husband who had been in hiding for almost a year. Now he reappears with his own company, and immediately launches a new brand."

"What's the strange news?" qiandra asked impatiently.

"Huh, Qiandra investigated Lady Fania and Mr Malfoy? It's a danger" Rania thought to herself.

"The car is the same car in the hit-and-run case report one knew of ago in the lake. At that time Fania seemed to be alone with her husband. From then on Malfoy disappeared without a trace" Fania said.

"What does this have to do with our problems?"

"We suspect the accident was a fabrication, to disguise their tracks in other activities" Sania said.

"That's not true. The accident was real and the beginning of all these problems" Rania said.
