"This is definitely not Papa Kevin's orders, Dad. I'm sure Papa couldn't have done something this cruel," Joon snapped, not accepting the accusations made by Jaya.
Jaya's gentle expression, now drastically changed. He looked coldly at Joon.
"Don't be so naive, Joon! The human heart is scarier than even the God of Death. Nothing is impossible in this world. It's also not impossible that Big Boss Kevin has changed." Jaya spoke emphatically. In fact, he no longer embeds the word 'brother' in front of Kevin's name.
Actually, this is a form of protest from Jaya as well. He wanted to vent his frustration. However, Jaya did not know who to vent her anger on.
Joon looked down at his father's words. If the human heart is that scary, it's not impossible that one day his father will also change. In the end, Joon will return to having no one in this world to lean on.
Joon realizes that blood ties are necessary for a relationship. Joon retracts his earlier words when he said it doesn't require blood relations to form a bond.
"Is dad---" Joon took a deep breath "---someday will also turn out like papa?" asked Joon, timidly.
Slap!!
Instead of an answer, it was a hard slap that Joon received in response to his question.
"What nonsense, Joon! If you don't want to rest anymore, you better help me with your clothes!" said Jaya. He gripped his fist. He regretted slapping Joon earlier, but Joon's words made him so annoyed. In fact, it never crossed his mind to leave Joon. He seemed to be able to leave anything in this world, except Joon. The son of a woman he truly loves sincerely.
Joon's eyes felt hot. He looked up to keep the tears from falling. Not because of his father's slap, but because he is still so worried about his Papa Kevin.
During these 11 years, Joon lived with 3 young men who took care of Joon like a child. There's Papa Kevin, Dad Kenichi and Father Jaya.
What if something bad happened to his papa? Joon can only pray for the safety of his Papa Kevin wherever he is. It doesn't matter if it's possible that his Papa Kevin is also behind this expulsion. To be sure, Joon's affection will not change towards his three parents. Joon promises that.
Joon flinched as he remembered something. He sprinted out of his room.
Jaya frowns at Joon's sudden movement. Ah, Jaya thinks maybe Joon is angry because of the slap earlier. Even so, Jaya has no intention of following Joon. He refocused on arranging Joon's clothes and put them in a large suitcase. Before tomorrow comes, they must have vacated this house. That's what the man in the vest ordered.
Jaya remembers a dozen years ago, when he was kicked out of her cafe. At that time, Jaya had debts to moneylenders and used the cafe building certificate as collateral. That was also the first time Jaya met Kevin.
Jaya's eyes widened when he remembered about the cafe building certificate. He got up and ran to Kevin's room. Hopefully the certificate is still there, so after this Jaya still has a place to live.
While in front of Kevin's room, Jaya collided with Kenichi who suddenly appeared from Kevin's room. Their bodies both bounced and fell on the floor.
Jaya rubbed his forehead which was red from stumbling on Kenichi's forehead.
"Hassh! Why did you appear all of a sudden, Ken!" snapped Jaya. He got up and passed Kenichi who was still sitting on the floor.
There was no time, Jaya ran back to Kevin's closet. He found a large safe box that Kevin used to store his valuables.
"What are you looking for, Jay?" Kenichi asked. He was already behind Jaya at this time. He had previously also searched for the remnants of money that Kevin might have left behind. However, he was just looking on the nightstand earlier. He missed checking the safe in Kevin's closet.
With difficulty, Jaya took out the safe made of iron from the cupboard. He frowned when he saw that the safe needed a code to open it.
"I'm sure Boss Kevin must have hidden his securities here," said Jaya. He was still trying to dial the codes. But, still all guesses wrong.
Kenichi also sat in front of the safe. He looked at the safe carefully.
"Try to dial the code according to Joon's birthday, Jay!" Kenichi suggested. He said it was real.
However, like a miracle. The safe was opened when Jaya dialed the code according to the date, month and year of Joon's birth. Jaya smiled with satisfaction because he managed to open the safe.
"I told you, Sis Kevin's love for Joon is far beyond our affection. So, it's impossible for him to do all of this. Surely at this time, Sis Kevin also doesn't know that we were kicked out of his house." Kenichi revealed his analysis.
"Don't be happy just yet, Ken! It doesn't mean that this safe contains important things either." Jaya said with a cold look. He is still on the conviction that Kevin must be behind all of this.
"But I'm sure, the contents of Sis Kevin's safe are more important than yours, which only contains Iron Man's underwear, Jay," Kenichi whispered, followed by giggling which made Jaya immediately give him a cruel slap.
"Damn you, Ken!" Jaya grumbled. He was unpacking the entire contents of Kevin's safe, which only had photos of Joon's clothes and clothes when he was young. Jaya threw the contents of the safe into the air. "What is Boss Kevin, huh? Why is there only Joon's childhood stuff in the vault, you see?" mumbled Jaya.
"Look closely, Jae! Who knows there is a black card between Joon's underwear." Kenichi said. He helped rummage through the contents of the owner's safe in this house, but the contents were only photos and clothes of Joon as a child. "Huuft, maybe that Boss Kevin was deliberately pranking us, Jay!" Kenichi snorted, annoyed.
"You look elsewhere, Jay! I want to see Joon first. Looks like he was running in a hurry to his mini studio." After saying that, Kenichi left Jaya alone in Kevin's room.
Jaya doesn't seem desperate. He rummaged through all the cupboards and nightstands in his adoptive brother's room.
***
Joon is in a soundproof music room which he usually calls a mini studio. This place used to be a room when Joon was a kid, but his father turned it into a music room. There are various types of musical instruments here. Starting from guitar, bass, keyboard, drums and others. This is the place Joon used to practice with his bandmates, Gilang, Miryu and Mario in middle school.
Joon holds each instrument. He did not think that he would finally leave all of his favorite musical instruments.
"What are you doing, Joon?" The sound from the studio doorway.
