Kanaya glanced at the man beside her who was now driving with a straight face, but there was also anger implied. It's now seven o'clock in the evening, after an incident that allowed him to be here Kanaya did her online lecture first and that too with Bryan waiting for her.
And now Kanaya doesn't know where Bryan will take her, for sure right now her heart is beating fast. Not because he was nervous being around the person he liked, but Kanaya was afraid of what the man would do to her, especially since Bryan had not opened his voice.
"Sir-"
The girl closed her mouth again when she saw the sharp gaze shown by the man, again and again she mispronounced the call for the man. Kanaya herself is confused as to what to call Bryan, even though they are only one year apart, but it doesn't feel good if Kanaya has to call the man by name.
"Wh-where are we actually going?"
Glancing at the man briefly, there seemed to be no sign that the man would answer his question. It would have been better if he didn't have to bother composing sentences for him to ask Bryan.
Kanaya quietly took out her cellphone from her tote bag, but it seemed that her movement couldn't be separated from Bryan's view. The proof is that the man immediately stopped his activities.
"Don't you dare contact someone to help you at this time."
"Who else wants to contact people?" Kanaya asked angrily.
"You think I'm crazy? You haven't forgotten that I'm one year older than you, you're still in college while I already have my own company."
Hearing the narrative from Bryan who had started to wander everywhere made Kanaya immediately sure to reply to Bryan's words, it seemed that the man was not angry as before.
"Yes, if you already have your own company, what can I do? It's just a burden on my parents."
"You know," said Bryan casually. "Just so you know, all this time Pak Roy has always told me about this only child."
"Huh? Seriously, sir?!"
Bryan rolled his eyes lazily. "Once again you call me like that, I will immediately send the recording to Mr. Roy."
"Eh, uh, uh, don't, P—eh," Kanaya covered her mouth when the call wanted to escape her lips. "Then what should I call you then?"
"Name."
Hearing that made Kanaya nod in understanding. "Okay, name."
"Name, so what did my Papa talk about me to you."
Cittt!
The man stomped on the brakes of his car firmly, causing Kanaya's body to stumble forward, making her eyes widen immediately.
"WHAT THE HELL?! IF YOU WANT TO DIE, YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE ME WITH ME!"
Bryan grimaced at the screams from the people beside him, who was really at fault right now? Because she felt that Kanaya was wrong, the girl actually called her 'name', really the name she wanted, even though she didn't mean it like that.
"Heh! You're even more silent!" Kanaya snapped when she saw the man just stared at her silently. Realizing one thing, that at this time the car he was driving had stopped. Then Kanaya smiled a little, this is a good opportunity for her to get out of this car.
Just as Kanaya's hand touched the car door, the man's voice made Kanaya discouraged and made her immediately curse Bryan.
"If you dare to get out of my car, I will make sure that the tape reaches Mr. Roy."
Kanaya immediately looked up with her hands that had been released from the car door. "Why is your life working only to intimidate people, right? Or maybe the client who met you and formed a partnership was because you were threatened by you, eh..." the girl hung her words.
"Don't tell me you're also bullying my Daddy?!" Kanaya screamed, realizing that her father was working with the man beside her.
"Watch your mouth, Kanaya!" Bryan growled, starting to get annoyed with the words that came out of the girl's mouth.
Maybe if Kanaya was a boy, which meant that she was her match. But the truth was the opposite, Kanaya was a woman and he couldn't possibly play hands with a woman.
Without another word, Bryan drove his car back to his destination, ignoring Kanaya who was cursing him, it was evident from the girl's lips that didn't stop moving.
**
Bryan stopped his car, he turned to the left and as soon as he saw the girl beside him who was fast asleep made Bryan chuckle in disgust. The man's gaze turned to the outside of the car, even though now the girl's big house beside his car was clearly visible.
He didn't know how to wake this girl up, and he certainly couldn't have carried her either. After raging with his thoughts, Bryan decided to just wake Kanaya up instead of having to bother carrying her.
His hand began to reach out to hold the girl's arm, after which Bryan shook her. "Get up!" the order is firm.
And thankfully Kanaya immediately blinked her eyes making Bryan breathe a sigh of relief and immediately took his hand away from the girl's arm.
"Eh, I'm sorry I overslept, didn't we? Have we arrived? Dima—" Kanaya's words stopped when she looked to the left, right there her house was making Kanaya widen her lips. Didn't think that Bryan would deliver it to the front of the house.
"Don't be happy just yet, because something will happen," said the man who immediately got out of his car.
Hearing the words that came out of Bryan's lips made Kanaya's heart skip a beat, there's no way Bryan would show the tape to his father, right? Yes, definitely not possible.
Kanaya tried to smile then got out of the car and stepped into her house, the house security guard who knew it was her then immediately opened all the gates of her house.
"That's Naya's boyfriend, isn't it?"
Suddenly, Kanaya rolled her eyes and shook her head. "That's Papa's client, sir. You shouldn't have opened the gate for him, sir," Kanaya glanced sarcastically at Bryan.
Bryan nodded in agreement with Kanaya's words, making the girl frown in surprise. "Yes, no need, sir. I only took a moment, I just wanted to report something to Mr. Roy. Has Mr. Roy arrived home?"
Kanaya's reflex immediately turned her gaze to the yard of her house, immediately her face felt calmer because she didn't find her father's car parked there, it meant that her father had not come home from work.
"My dad isn't home yet, so you better go home now!"
"Pak Roy has come home, Neng."
Kanaya stifled a laugh. "How are you getting home, sir? Even Papa's car is not in front."
"Today is the time for Mr. Roy's car to go to the garage for a monthly check, Neng. So Mr. Roy was picked up by Erwin."
