Your Spirit from the Water of My Eyes
S2 Chapter 134. Graduation Day.
Keanu smiled sinisterly upon hearing that. "What do you mean by drug?"
Deg.
Nico's face turned pias with a surprised look when he heard Keanu's words, but a moment later he tried to behave as usual.
"I'm a merchant, so I sell a lot of things" Nico said, trying to be relaxed. However, unfortunately Keanu had seen his face that changed pias.
"Yes, narc*oba is also one of the items you sell," Keanu continued sharply. "So he's one of your customers, yeah." He nodded his head with a cynical smirk.
Nico clenched both his hands tightly. Damn*, why did the man know that he was trading the forbidden goods? No one knew he was a dealer other than his customers.
"I've never bullied you, so shouldn't you also not bother me?" nico said with great emphasis.
It's also free if he denies the man's words, because Keanu is not a random person. Obviously his rebuttal would have even backfired for himself.
"Of course" said Keanu, clasping his chest, showing arrogance that his power was far greater than that of the man. "You never bothered me, but that man had troubled me so much that I wanted to kill him."
Glug.
Nico swallowed his saliva violently. He felt goosebumps with what Keanu said, especially when he saw the sharp look of the male's eyes like an eagle.
"I'm sorry, but I have nothing to do with-"
"Give me all the evidence of the purchase Rian made, or you'll be the one I'm gonna drag into jail," Keanu quickly cut, knowing that Nico would be in favor.
Nico speechless. No, he couldn't break the agreement with Rian. However, he could not fight Keanu either. What should he do now?
"I'll give it until tomorrow. If you don't hand over proof of the transaction and the man's use, then don't blame me if your company breaks overnight" Keanu threatened to return playfully, causing Nico's body to shake. "And if you tell him about my arrival, then just wait a few seconds for your life to disappear from this world." He glanced at the man standing behind him, making Nico shudder in horror at the sight of his men.
Nico could only be speechless with a deathly pale face hearing the threat after threat that Keanu had withered, until he finally nodded as the man continued to stare cynically.
Keanu then left the place with his men, a man who was very close to him before he married Nindi.
"Don't tell my wife anything about what we're doing, I don't want her to worry" Keanu said as he got into the car.
The man named Aryan nodded. "Good, Sir. But, without being told anything I think Madam already knows about what we're doing, let alone you being with me."
"You're right." Keanu rubbed his face violently. Obviously Nindi knew that she was doing something illegal to be with Aryan, because that man was one of the people closely related to the black world. "Here you go, think about it later." He felt tired while leaning his body against the back of the chair.
It was enough work for today, so it was time for Keanu to return home and be with his wife. It's up to Nindi to get angry when she finds out what she's doing.

A few days later, Ayun was preparing to go to school together with Adel. After three years of junior high school, the girl finally received the results of the exam stating whether she graduated or not.
"Let's go, we'll be late!" take a swing while wearing a pansus that is very well-fitted on his leg.
"But, Mom," cried Adel who was still in the kitchen. Suddenly his stomach was mules, so he had to report first to the bathroom.
Once everything is ready, Ayun and Adel rush to school with the driver. There was no conversation between them along the way, let alone Ayun looking daydreaming because he thought of something.
"Did he come to school today?" Swing sighed harshly. Last night he forgot to ask Fathir if today came to school or not, especially since last night the man had no news.
During these few days, Fathir had absolutely nothing to say about what happened in the hospital at that time, and Ayun did not know how to discuss it either. They communicate, but only about marriage. He had not even been able to return to the hospital to see the doctor.
"Y-yes, Adel?" Swing gasped in shock upon hearing Adel's call. He turned his head towards the princess who was staring confusedly.
"Why do you daydream, do you have a problem?" adel asked worriedly. She called her mother, but her mother was daydreaming.
"Nothing, dear. Mother was just thinking about the wedding preparations," Ayun replied by lying, there was no way she was telling the truth.
Adel nodded in understanding. He looked at her sharply, like he wanted to say something serious.
"What's up, kid? Do you want anything?" ask Ayun who really understands if Adel currently wants to talk about something.
Adel nodded. "I, I just want to say something about Dad." He spoke with doubt.
Swing smile. "Tell me, son. Why are you hesitating like that?" He rubbed Adel's shoulder so that his daughter did not feel doubt, especially this is the first time Adel returned to discuss about Evan after a long time.
Adel nodded. He then said that if it had been two days that the father continued to send messages to him, namely asking how he was doing at this time, and may if the father visited it see his condition.
"Then, what did Adel reply?" ask Ayun.
Adel fell silent, a moment later he shook his head because he did not reply to the message from the father at all.
In fact, Evan has sent messages several times or called Adel. However, it never got a reply from the girl. Then two days later, he kept asking to see Adel and Ezra, because he wanted to see their situation.
"You didn't return a message from Dad, honey?" and Ayun asked again, and answered with Adel's head.
Swing sighed harshly. "Listen to me, son." He grasped Adel's hands gently, accompanied by an affectionate look. "Mom knows what has happened in the past hurts your heart so much, so does mother and sister Ezra. But, if we keep that pain, how can we pick up happy?"
Adel fell silent with a sad look. He actually missed his father too, but his heart also could not lie that it still held a great anger on his father.
"Health is not good, son. Do not let happiness not come to us just because it still holds a grudge," continued Ayun. "Mom will soon be married to Fathir. Does Adel love Fathir?"
Adel nodded immediately. "I love Fathir, Mom. I love dad too. But, but my heart hurts when I see you."
Swing to stare softly, even tears have been stirred in the eyes. "Sorry, Son. I'm sorry, Mom." She immediately hugged Adel tightly, feeling guilty for not being able to treat the pain in her daughter's heart.
Adel sobbed in the arms of his mother. He felt very confused and did not know what to do. On the one hand he misses his father a lot, but on the other he hates him too. Isn't this feeling really excruciating?
"It's okay, son. It's okay if you're angry with dad, but don't hate him or take revenge on him" Ayun said softly. "Stay close to God, pray and pray. If you are close to God, your heart will be calm. It's okay, honey. Just slow. There's Mom here, I'll definitely continue to support you." He rubbed the top of Adel's head gently.
Adel nodded in understanding. He then stretched out the embrace while rubbing his wet face, as they had now reached their destination.
"Come on, don't cry anymore, baby! Today we want to take the announcement of graduation, so soon Adel will go to High School" said Ayun while inviting Adel to go down.
Adel nodded while commenting on a thin smile. "Yes, I'm going to graduate and get into my favorite high school." Instantly he came back cheerful.
Swing also smiled happily when he saw the cheerful smile on Adel's face, as well as a man who had arrived at the school and had been watching them since.
"Adel."
