THE TRAP OF LOVE

THE TRAP OF LOVE
#16


Gavin almost never returned to his home. He asks Lio and Poppy to take care of him, because Poppy has not taken care of Elle anymore because Elle has been taken away by Elisha.


"Son, lately it seems like you've been lacking concentration in your work."


"Sorry Dad, maybe I'm just exhausted."


"Do you not want to visit Grandpa and Grandma? Let's just say you're on vacation. They miss you too."


"Content Dad ... "


"Daddy!!!" yelled Gia who ran from her room towards the sitting room.


"What's up, baby? What are you shouting like that?" ask Dad Chris.


Mom Clara who heard Gia's screams also looked towards the sitting room and approached. He wondered what made his daughter run away screaming.


"Can I go to Indonesia?" ask Gia.


"What wind do you suddenly want to go there? It's always difficult to ask" asked Mom Clara.


"Look at this, Daddy," Gia showed me a magazine.


"Why this magazine?"


Gia went page by page, and showed a picture of a woman.


"Isn't this Anna, your best friend?" ask Mom Clara.


"Yes Mom, look she's so beautiful, now she's a model."


"Arianna Howard," muttered Gavin, "wasn't her father Joe Harland."


"I will accompany Gia to Indonesia," Gavin said suddenly.


"If your brother comes along, Daddy will let you, baby" Kris said.


"really? Thank you Daddy, thank you Kak, just this time I am glad you came with me,” said Gia while twisting one eye.

They have arrived at Soekarno Hatta airport, the time has already shown at 5 pm. Their journey was exhausting. Lexy, Nicholas' personal assistant is waiting for them and will escort them to Ginea's residence.


"Uncle Lexy!" call Gia.


"Gift .. ," Lexy replied to Gia's call.


Lexy did call Givanie with Gift, her favorite call to the little girl who helped her when she was almost hit by gunfire while helping the kidnapped Niel.


"Uncle," Gavin greets Lexy.


"Gavin, you've grown up. Handsome and handsome."


"Sister mah is old, not mature," ledek Gia.


Without further ado, Gavin ruffled Gia's hair.


"Brandk .... "


"Let's get in the car. Mr. Brandon is waiting for your arrival,” Lexy said.


They entered the car immediately after putting their luggage in the trunk, heading to Ginea's residence.


Gia sat in the front seat, next to Lexy. Gavin was in the back seat. He opened his phone, opened his photo gallery and looked at Anna's face.


Would you be angry if you met me again? - Inner Gavin. Ever since Gavin learned that Anna was Gia's best friend, his mind had always been filled with Anna.

"Grandpa!!!" Gia hugged Grandpa Brandon tightly, while Gavin greeted Grandma Kezia.


"Well, the more beautiful this is Grandpa's grandson," said Grandpa Brandon as he pinched Gia's cheek.


"Grandpa, pain .... "


"Aren't you missing Grandma, honey?" grandma Kezia asked Gia.


"Of course Gia kangen, let alone the same Grandma cuisine," smiled Gia while hugging GrandmaKezia.


"Lexy, Nic told you to get back to the office, there are some things that need to be done. Besides, Niel needs you too."


"Good, Sir. Excuse me first then."


"See you, Uncle!" said Gia, replied with a smile and a wave of hands by Lexy.


"How long are you guys gonna stay here?" ask Grandpa Brandon.


"Grandpa how long does it take?" ask Gia.


"If you can, forever" Grandpa Brandon laughed.


"Mr Grandpa ..."


"Not 100% yet, Grandpa. Daddy is helping to restore the company's reputation because indirectly the problems I face are always associated with the company."


"You should rest first, let your mind clear again. Chris can definitely return the company as it used to."


My mind won't be clear before I meet him. This guilt is killing me even more - Gavin.

Gavin, who had a hard time sleeping overnight, and had just fallen asleep before the morning, had to wake up with a pain in his head and stomach that felt full so he felt nauseous.


He ran to the bathroom and vomited his stomach. His body felt weak, because he had felt nauseous several times and had to go back and forth to the bathroom.


"Sister, Grandma called sister down for breakfast," Gia went inside Gavin's bedroom without knocking on the door, "Sister, brother is sick?"


"Let's know, brother's head hurts and it feels really nauseous. Looks like brother got in the wind. Maybe because of the long trip yesterday and brother forgot to fill up the stomach."


"Ahhh, ordinary sister. Nasihatin me but brother himself so. Yeah, I'm down first. I'll bring my sister's breakfast to the room, yes" said Gia.


"Yes, thank you," Gavin closed his eyes again, he needed rest.


After a while, there was a knock on the door.


"Vin, Grandma entered yes," but there was no answer from inside.


Grandma Kezia entered, bringing her a bowl of chicken porridge and a glass of warm tea.


"Vin ... ," Grandma Kezia moved slightly over her grandson's shoulder.


"Grandma," Gavin's eyes blinked little by little, his eyes felt extremely heavy.


"What's wrong with you?" ask Grandma Kezia.


"What's wrong Grandma, it just seems to catch a cold."


"Eat first. Grandma made you chicken porridge."


"Yes Grandma, I'll eat. Now I want to take a little nap because I couldn't sleep last night."


"Alright, Grandma came out first."

"Sir Nisa," call Gia.


"Gia, you came here?" Nisa who saw that Gia was there was very happy because they had not met for a long time.


Nisa is now a doctor and was married a year ago. She often stopped by her parents' place if her husband was going out of town for work.


“Sister, I'm sorry for not coming to sister's wedding. Understand that at that time I was busy.”


“Kak Nisa understands, it's okay. But instead, later tract Kak Nisa eat yes,” Goda Nisa.


"Ready!! If we need to go shopping. I was longing for a walk" Gia said with a smile.


"You alone?"


"Of course not. I came with Brother Gavin, only he was sprawled from illness."


"illness?" ask Nisa.


"Yes, he complained of headaches and nausea, he said he caught a cold because he forgot to eat during our trip yesterday."


"Later I'll check it out."


"Oiya, Sister Nisa is a doctor, yes" said Gia while laughing, "Sister, may I ask you something"


"Yes, what's wrong?"


"Did you know Arianna Howard?"


"I don't know, just know."


"Is he famous enough?"


"Lately it seems like his name is on the rise, but I rarely see him because I rarely watch television or read magazines."


"Ouuu .... "


"What's the matter?” ask Nisa.


"I want to meet him."


"You want to meet an artist like you're meeting a friend. It's not easy to meet him, let alone a famous artist."


"He was my friend, my lost friend." Gia pursed her lips while folding her hands in front of her chest.


Nisa who saw him could only shake her head. It was like seeing a little boy struggling.
