(POV JOHAN)
Right after the briefing with the café employees, I found Senyo's silhouette on the roadside. My only son seemed to be pointing at a woman with long hair. It seems that there is a heated argument between them. It makes my hair goosebumps instantly.
"Sen, why the fuss?" I asked after I managed to land my feet right in front of them.
Senyo spontaneously turned around. A glint of anger flashed across his face. Without waiting long, the old man told the story of how he first met the strange figure in front of him. Senyo firmly accused the woman of being a car thief.
"Hah? N-no, sir. I- I hid down there to avoid the bad guys. When I got out, I suddenly bumped into the owner of this car." said someone whose name I did not know. He tried to defend himself.
This heart was suddenly touched when he saw that innocent and holy expression. Who knows? Her face reminded me of someone from the past. There's no need to talk about it because it's certain that it will break my soul again.
I'm just getting curious about the virgin's story. Therefore, I asked him why he was being chased by bad people. Something that made my heart shake. He said that he had just been sold by his father.
After much deliberation, I finally decided to take the child home. Although initially, Senyo refused, gradually he also obeyed my orders. Yes, I'm John. The figure of the head of the household, who did not even have a family member, dared to refute my words.
The beautiful girl named Kenara is I'm also confused as to why it is so reckless to bring strangers into our house. even though Senyo had warned. It could be that Nara is just a thief wearing a mask.
When I got home, I called my wife, Runi, to be introduced to Nara. However, expectations do not match reality. It turned out that Runi balked at the arrival of the white woman at our residence. Runi scolds Nara. Starting from the way he dresses to his unclear origins, I felt so guilty that I threatened my wife and son not to spend a dime on them. And so the two of them fell silent without rebuttal.
The next day, I was dizzy because of our house assistant who was never found. I don't know where he is. I was usually perched in the kitchen at this time of the morning. I was about to ask him to wake up Nara, who was sleeping in the guest room. However, what power? I also don't intend to order Runi or Senyo, because they certainly won't.
"I can have breakfast in the kitchen, sir. No need to go to the dining table, "said Nara politely, after I managed to knock on the bedroom door and wake him up.
I do not know who the child's mother and father are. I think his parents raised him very well. Nara is so gentle and full of manners. very different from Senyo, which does not reflect social etiquette.
Nara refused my invitation to have breakfast together, but his name wouldn't be Johan if he couldn't get what I wanted. After forcing Nara a bit, the thin-lipped woman finally complied and took steps towards the dining table. Don't forget that my wife and son were there too. We had breakfast together, even though the atmosphere was only enhanced by the clinking of the spoons against the plates.

Twilight is slowly coming. Greet earth creatures with a million yellow shimmers. I found Runi reading a magazine on the veranda of the house. Not like this morning. This evening, my wife looks more cheerful.
"Are you home, sir?" he said, tugging at the corners of his lips.
I immediately nodded and rushed into the house. I see that the room here is so empty without occupants.
"Where's our maid? Why haven't you seen it since this morning? " I asked after seeing Runi again.
A few seconds passed. Runi put her table on the round table. His legs are crossed. Look at his slowly narrowing eyes. Runi's smile spread across her face.
"Our assistant thought that the naughty boy, brought last night would work here. So, he resigned first without asking." Runi's words warmed my ears.
"That's the name. Why don't you just keep our maid from leaving? "
"No time, Mr. That's enough. "Finding people to work here is very easy. Runi waved her hand. My wife is known for her arrogance.
I was just about to leave Runi when suddenly I remembered Nara. My heart hasn't been at ease since I left the cafe. if Runi did something to the poor woman.
"Where's Nora?" I exclaimed as I unbuttoned the shirt collar.
"Go,"
All the organs in my body felt like they were not functioning. I looked closely at Runi's bead, which implied seriousness.
"What do you mean?"
"Am I not speaking clearly? The bum was gone. He's the one who wants to get out of this house."
Instantly, my heartbeat fast. When I turned back to the rest of the house, this building did look so quiet. The last time I met Nara, it seemed that the child was comfortable. Was it Runi who kicked him out while I was working?
"Where did you go? Why don't you ban it? What if something happened to him?" A barrage of questions came out of my mouth. I just threw away the bag that was clutched in my left hand. Go to the guest room and break down the door, which turns out to be unlocked.
My eyes swept the entire empty room. For a moment, I turned to the kitchen and the back porch of the house. nothing. It seems that Runi was telling the truth.
I met the stocky woman again. He seemed indifferent to the departure of Nara. I'm still confused about what happened to Nara. Doesn't he feel embarrassed because I've been kind enough to save him from the jock?
Three days have passed since Nora left. My mood at work is getting worse and worse. confusing. The girl I just met seemed to have managed to break into my heart. I could feel the kindness radiating from him. Something that made me want to raise him as my child.
I want to teach Runi a lesson. I know he is happy with Nara's disappearance from our residence. I suspect that it was my wife who kicked out Nara. He just didn't admit it. But now that I think about it, it's inappropriate for me to judge Runi for Nara's sake. Even so, Nara is still a foreign girl I just met.
The peak of my anxiety occurred tonight. Runi is too busy with branded goods which she will order online. Meanwhile, Senyo had not yet returned home. It's an okay boy. He must be hanging out with his friends out there.
I decided to leave the house to calm myself. I stopped the car at the crossroads and stopped for a moment at Pertamina. I played jazz while waiting for my turn to refuel the car. My gaze swept across the city. I also accidentally saw a woman with long hair and white skin who was serving customers at the fried duck stall.
Hey, hold on!
What was? A woman with long hair and white skin?
I was very surprised when I realized which figure I had just seen. I rubbed my eyes repeatedly. Confused and not expecting. Yes, the girl I mean is Nara. He seemed busy taking orders from visitors.
"Oh Lord, Nora! " I quickly turned around and let my car not be filled with fuel. After making sure that what I saw was Nara, I immediately went downstairs to greet the girl.
Finally, I found you, "I said," after successfully choking on his right side.
