...~Happy Reading~...
In another part of the earth; after thinking about his bad good, Darel decides to meet with Lanna to finish what happened between them. Because he wanted to concentrate on the preparation of the Melo Mini Album.
Darel contacted Micah to arrange their meeting at Cafe Relkha Hotel. Because Darel had sent a message to Lanna, and she was willing to meet with Darel according to the time and place that Darel had determined.
Towards the time of the meeting, Darel sat down and talked to Micah in his study. "You ready?" Micah asked as he held Darel's shoulder. Darel nodded.
"If I can choose, I don't want to see him." Darel was not excited.
"But there are things that can't be left alone. One day it could be a snowball blocking the road or hitting ourselves." Say Darel again.
"I agree with you, so let's get ready to finish this. Before this thing annoys or hits us." Micah said as he stood up.
After that they walked out of Micah's office towards the cafe. Darel was sitting at the table like on the night of his meeting with Lanna before. He had come earlier than the time that had been conveyed to Lanna. Because he wanted to see the situation and check all the preparations.
The atmosphere of the cafe is not too crowded, because everything has been arranged by Micah. Lanna came over with a happy smile, according to the time Darel had set.
Lanna was so happy to see Darel again. So she wanted to kiss Darel, when she met him. "I told you, keep your attitude." Said Darel coldly, telling him to sit down.
Seeing Darel's demeanor and voice, Lanna immediately sat down without a sound. Darel called the waiter to ask for a mineral water drink. After the drink came, Darel took the drink and drank it. Darel also allows Lanna to drink.
Darel looked at Lanna calmly, but seriously. "Lanna, now for the second time we meet at this table. Do you remember that?" Ask Darel.
"Ooh yeah, Darel. How I forgot. By the time I got back from the toilet you were gone. I called looking for you but you didn't take my call." Lanna explained unsuspectingly, Darel nodded.
"Now I want to ask and you have to answer honestly. What did you do with my drink that night?" Darel stared at Lanna's face, remaining calm, but focused on seeing her reaction. Just for a moment his eyes panicked and calmed down.
"I didn't do anything to your drink, Darel. I just ordered the drinks you asked for." Lanna said trying to stay calm, but her heart started to dag dig dug.
"Lannaa, maybe you don't know me very well. I don't like dishonest people. Because to me, dishonest people are like snakes." Darel said, continuing to look at Lanna calmly.
"So once again I'm giving you a chance to be honest. What did you put in my drink that night?" Ask Darel calmly.
"Yes, Darel. I didn't put anything in your drink. I swear." Lanna said as she raised her two fingers to convince Darel. 'If I were to speak the truth, Darel would be furious and would never see me again. I don't want to lose him.' Lanna.
"Well, if that's your truth." Darel gave Mikha a code to get the cafe employees to come to his desk. As the man stood beside the table and greeted Darel, Lanna froze.
"Do you know this woman in front of me?" Darel asked coldly to the bar employee.
"Know, sir. This woman who put something in your drink a while ago." Said the cafe employee, reassuring Darel.
"He's lying, Darel. How could I do that to you. I can't do such a lowly thing." Lanna's still trying to dodge.
"This woman is lying sir. He gave me money to be quiet, because I rebuked him when I saw him put something in the drink. Here I return your money, miss. I'm sorry sir, please don't fire me." Pinta employees cafe, while bowing his body.
"He lied and slandered me, Darel. Where could I possibly want to harm you." Lanna said evasively again, while putting away the money with her hands until it was scattered on the floor.
...°-° Dishonesty will give birth to a lie °-°...
"Because you accuse each other, it means that some of you are dishonest. Then you go back to the bar and bring me the laptop and the cctv tape that night." Darel's orders were already furious, and stared at the cafe employees. Hearing that, Lanna's face immediately paled.
"Eeeh, no need." Lanna said in a trembling voice while preventing the cafe employee from stepping up. Darel remained silent waiting for what Lanna would say.
"Yeah Darel, I did it. Because I like you, I want to be with you. Please forgive me." Lanna said softly, pleading.
"You can go back to work." The cafe employee bowed his body, saluted and thanked. When he was about to collect the money scattered on the floor, Darel forbade him.
"Let the money be there and from now on enjoy the money from the right work." Darel.
"Good, sir. Thank you." Thank you." He said again, bending over and returning to the bar.
"And for you, I think you're a good woman. Until I made you a friend. I am willing to help you in various ways. Whether it's your life or your career." Said Darel and Lanna speechless, lowered her head and started crying.
"But what did you do to me? Remove your tears, for they make me sicker. Now, please take your money. If you get the money in a way that is not right, just enjoy yourself. Don't give it to anyone else." Cold Darel.
Hearing Darel's voice, Lanna immediately picked up the money scattered on the floor with shame and tears. He kept thinking, however he should not be too ugly in Darel's eyes. If possible, I can see him again.
"Darel, I'm sorry. I'm not actually the one who's gonna do that, but Baek told me to do that. He said that way I could get you and he would make a song for me. I've taken his advice wrong." Lanna said as she sobbed.
"Now you're under Baek? You know what the risk is with your words, if you're lying?" Darel asked as he looked at Lanna sharply.
"I'm not lying, Darel. I'm willing to meet him or I can call him right now." Lanna said while taking her phone.
"No need." Darel snapped, making Lanna shocked and frozen still.
"And also, you don't have to tell Baek that you've told me this. Youunderstand?" Darel asked as he looked at Lanna sharply. Lanna nodded in silence. Because he had only seen Darel's face so solemn and cold.
"I'm sorry, Darel." Lanna said slowly full of regret. He realized he had lost Darel.
"You're religious, aren't you?" Darel asked, and Lanna nodded back in agreement.
"Then do not apologize to me, but ask your Lord for forgiveness. Because you've humiliated him with your shameful deeds." Darel.
"From now on, get out of my sight. And if we meet later, we never know. I hope you understand what I mean." Darel said firmly and coldly.
"If you try acting with me again, I don't hesitate to drop you with this tape." Darel said again, because people like Lanna cannot be trusted. Lanna flinched and only realized that the cafe was in a quiet state. Just playing a slow piano game. It turns out Darel has recorded everything.
Darel stood up and before leaving Lanna, he said: "Remember these words of mine. If your goal is good, do it in a good way to achieve your goal. Because something that is obtained in a bad way, will end in a bad way." Said Darel, then immediately left the silent Lanna, bowed in shame and sorrow.
...°-° If start lying, will give birth to the next lie and will end embarrassing °-°...
