When The Sky Fall
Chapter 11's

Flashbacks

Alex hung up. He frowned and looked confused. Renald saw him from a distance and came to him

"What's? Why else? Is there any more mistake?" ask Renald. "We haven't even finished what's there."

"Ahhhhh... Uhm... No, not about work."

"I didn't know there was anything else that could make your face wrinkle apart from work."

"My face is always tangled so don't question it. It's about your wife."

Renald's turn was staring confusedly. "Why else with him? Ahh do I have to know? I don't want to know about him. We have a video call meeting with a partner in Japan. Let's go." Renald is gone.

"It seems serious" said Alex stopped Renald's steps. Renald sighed then turned around and came to Alex again.

"Okay, okay. Whatisit? Don't tell me she's shopping too much or she's already in New York. I'm really going to kill you." Renald threatened with a sharp look.

"Oh I'd love to do it. Say your wife has arrived safely. But that's the thing, he never leaves."

Renald's sharp gaze turned into a look of confusion with the frown on his forehead. "What does that mean?"

"His jet pilot just called me, he said Dance never came."

"Maybe he's just late."

"They waited for three hours, Ren. Maybe there's something."

Renald rubbed his face rough. "He's a real hassle."

"Do you want me to cancel the meeting?" haggar Alex.

"Don't you dare! It's an important meeting. More important than him. I'll attend the meeting, you'll track him down. Use the CCTV from home and follow him."

"I asked for his phone number. I'll track him down using that, too."

"I don't even have his number." Renald's answer earned him a look of disbelief from Alex.

"She's your wife, Ren. How can you not know your wife's number?"

"On paper only okay? Only on paper. Should we discuss this? The meeting will begin soon."

"It's up to you to take it on paper but he's still your responsibility. You go get ready, I'll check the CCTV."

Alex walked away from Renald, leaving Renald still in his place.

Throughout the meeting Renald could not concentrate. He always seems to be busy with his own thoughts. She certainly cursed Dance because she felt the childish attitude of Dance. Escape? Really childish!

Renald waits, it's possible that Tari got lost and deliberately diverted him. Alex already said that the last dance is at the airport. But Renald wasn't looking right away, he was waiting. After absolutely no news, Renald immediately flew to Indonesia.

Meeting up on the grounds of visiting a sick Dance father was the only reason. He couldn't possibly say if Dance escaped. He did not want to be seen as an irresponsible man. So he said there was a need in the city and that Dance was in New York. Because of that visit, he knew, Tari never set foot in Indonesia.

Renald twisted the brain, how else to find it. Alex suggested to tell everything to both parents Dance to be able to find it faster but of course Renald refused. Renald was quickly able to scrape information about his friends. Sure, it's thanks to her stepmother Tari who looks really into it. Although it felt uncomfortable, Renald still asked.

With reason to invite Tari to where Tari wants, Renald knows about South Korea and some other cities of course. But Renald always believed his instincts were never wrong, corrections, rarely wrong. Without explaining anything to Alex, Renald flew to South Korea. She went to her sister when she arrived in Korea.

"Your wife's missing? You kidding?!" Andy was quite surprised by Renald's statement.

"If I was joking, I wouldn't be here." Renald sipped his coffee.

"But how can? Renald she's your wife, not the women you used to carry."

"Of course I know she's my wife. If not, you think I'm going to have a hard time looking for her." Renald answered casually.

Andy shook his head looking at his sister that one. Stubborn, cold and unconcerned about everything but the person he cares about. And of course, Andi is very sure his own wife does not belong to the category of people he cares about. Andy was one of the people who knew about the true story behind Renald's marriage.

"I'll check all my data and acquaintances. I'll let you know if I get it." Andy stands. But before he left, he said again. "This is the first and last time. If it happens again, I won't help you. She's your wife Renald, like it or not. He's your responsibility. If you don't love him, but that doesn't mean you can't be a good husband to him. And I need to make it clear, I'm involved in looking for her not for you, but for your wife. I'm afraid he'll be in danger. She's my sister-in-law anyway."

"Is the talk still long? Why so long? When's it?"

Andy sighed. For a moment he forgot the stubborn Renald and cursed him for it.

After learning that Dari is indeed in Korea and gets all the information, Renald decides to let Dance in Korea. He wanted to see how far his life would go without her.

...***...

"This is your key, madam. You will stay one room with the master. Top suit room. I'll park the car" Alex said. Dance takes the room key out of Alex's hand and gets out of the car. Dance walked inside. The hotel was very luxurious and large, one of Renald's properties and under the auspices of the G.I Corporation.

Dance stopped in front of the room suites door. He didn't come in right away. Just stay in his place.

Click!

Dance surprised. A hand suddenly passed by and opened the door. Dance and stay away.

"Why are you staying there?" asked Renald and stared at Dari for a moment. Renald opened the door wide. "Come in."

Dance step inside. Inside there was another rather long hallway then another door. They went inside. The room is very spacious and looks luxurious.

"My room's there." Renald pointed to his right. "And you're there." Renald pointed to his left. "Rest."

Renald loosened his tie and walked towards his room. Dance a little confused. The room is too big. Dance found the door again. He's unlocked. In the spacious room again with a bed. He saw his suitcase was already there.

"This is his room." Dari put her bag on the table and laid her body on the mattress. He thought about what Alex said. He knew even very confident Alex was exaggerating his story. Maybe Tari doesn't know Renald well but it's enough for him to know him. Dance sighed and closed her eyes.

...***...

Dance walked quickly towards the entrance, she was misfortune. He overslept. He shouldn't have slept. But foolishly in bed. He is too tired from having to work and then he gets a call from Chae Ri's parents, asking him to take care of her temporarily because his parents have needs that can not be delayed. Finally after returning home from the Convenience store, he went straight to the hospital guarding Chae Ri.

It's been a few days since Tari lived in a room with Renald in suits but she barely met him. Yup, he's playing cat-slinging again. The normal day is over. She wants to stay with Na Eun again. He's planning on saying that to Renald tonight.

But Tari got to the lobby, from afar she could already see Renald talking to Alex. Dance regulated her breathing, she prepared herself. He would walk quickly to avoid it. Renald saw Dance from a distance. He wanted to come to her but she just passed by. Yeah, she realized that Dance was avoiding her again like in New York.

Today Dance had to take the morning sif at the store. The shopkeeper, who is usually morning, will have a job interview. So inevitably Tari relented. Fortunately at three hours Dance can already go to Na Eun's cafe.

"Tumben you're here."

Dance was a little surprised to see Na Eun who was in the cafe. He usually refuses to go to his own cafe. He said there was too much pressure and his hands would not stop working. Why would he pay people if he works? That's what he always said.

"I don't know where else to go. I've been in the office one day and my girlfriend's still at her parents' house." Na Eun puts the ice cubes into the plastic glass she holds.

"Is Chae Ri gone?" tanya Dance. Today Chae Ri was discharged from the hospital and her parents immediately brought her back to the village.

"It has. I'm the one who drove them to the terminal."

"I really wish there were no more distractions. Especially from that jerk and psycho guy. I hope she will be in jail for a very long time" Tari said while wearing her apron.

"Hmm me too. Have you asked your husband about the development of that jerk guy? Thank you." Thank you." Na Eun gave the glass that had been filled with coffee to one woman.

"I haven't even spoken a single word since that incident. Good day, what message would you like?" Dance begins to serve the customer. Today was busy, even though it was Friday. Na Eun's cafe not only sells coffee and cake, but sells spiced chicken with her melted mozzarella cheese and macaroni meat paste sauce with mozarela cheese as well.

At eleven o'clock in the evening the cafe was starting to fall. Dance starts cleaning all the tables. Take dirty glasses and dishes and wash them.

"You're seriously not talking to him yet? You live on a roof with him! How can you not meet each other?" Na Eun bombards Tari with questions when the new Dance comes out after changing clothes.

"I'm avoiding it, okay?"

"But why?"

"Don't ask me why. You know why. I don't want to meet her anyway, let alone talk to her." Dance starts locking some windows.

"Hey! Your husband is very handsome. He's really handsome. And you avoided it? Who are you?"

Dance laughs. "Yes, yeah I know. I am not beautiful and attractive. But why can't I avoid it? Ask it yourself. Just come to the hotel. I'm sure he'll see you."

"Your relationship is really very strange." Na Eun muttered and shook her head.

"Gee! Can I move to your apartment again? I don't want to stay with her any longer." said Tari. "At least until I have a place for me to escape again."

"You're going to run away again? Seriously? Don'tcrazy. Just here enough. There I am, you hear me? And I'm sorry, you can't stay in my apartment anymore. Hae Joon oppa has been discharged from the military, you forgot? Unless you want to stay three."

"You crazy? Of course I don't want to. I forgot, sorry."

"Just leave with your husband. After all you live in a luxurious and free place."

"No, thank you. But I'll stay there at least until I get a place to stay. Help me find, will you?"

"You're so stubborn. Let's go home."

All the officers left the cafe. The cafe's in the meeting lock.

"Whooaahh Daebak!" praise one female officer. Everyone turned to the direction the female official saw. Renalds.

"You said you avoided him, but why are you being picked up now?" na Eun asked in a whisper.

"I don't even know."

"Okay, okay stop. He already has one. You can disperse." said Na Eun disbanding all of her employees.

"See you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

"Is it done?" asked Renald who was already standing near Tari and Na Eun. "Hi." say hello to Renald to Na Eun.

"Hi." Na Eun said hello back.

"Se... What are you here for?" tanya Dance was still confused.

"Fetch you."

"And how do you know I'm here?"

"I don't know, actually. I went to the store before I got here. Seeing you're not working, so I'm straight here."

"Okay, okay. Hear me. Na Eun knows about the true state of our household. The truth. So you don't have to pretend like this." said Tari. He was too tired to act.

"But I'm not pretending. I did come to pick you up." Renald said. Dance looking for lies on Renald's face. But Renald looks relaxed and doesn't seem to lie. Butwhy?

"Hmmm... Na Eun-na I go home first huh." said Tari

"See you later." Renald added.

"Ahh wait! Tomorrow I have a date with my girlfriend. What if we double date? Me and my boyfriend and you two?"

Dance was surprised, She looked at Na Eun with her murderous gaze.

"Na Eun has gone completely insane!"

Na Eun ignored Tari's gaze and continued.

"Come on. Tomorrow you're off. Than at home. We double date, from morning, how?"

"Na Eun-na, I may be off but Renald sangaaatt is busy. So there's no need." Dari turned and pushed Renald's body into his car.

"But he can get permission or take a day off" said Na Eun stopped her steps. "No problem? He's the owner anyway. How's it?"

"No. whoa.". "All right."

Dari and Renald both answered but with different answers. Dari looked at Renald in surprise. He said all right?

"I agree. Let's have a double date tomorrow" Renald said.

Whats??
