While walking into a cafe with a classic feel with antique interiors and furniture inside, Keenan saw a man he knew, he immediately approached the man to eat together.
"Hey, Bro, it's a coincidence that we meet here," said Keenan in a friendly manner.
"Eh, Keenan, I haven't had breakfast yet and my dad has asked me to accompany him to the office. So, I just ran off here for breakfast," replied the handsome man with a very thin beard, as if he hadn't been shaved for a long time or he hadn't grown much because he was still Keenan's age.
"Hem, uncle Arsha is like my dad. today I was decided as the second CEO, this will be both a burden and a challenge," said Keenan who was already sitting in a chair opposite the man who turned out to be the son of Shandra and Arsha called Aldric.
"Wow, that means we'll see each other less often, I'm sure you'll be very busy," Aldric replied.
"Indeed, you have not been given a position by your dad?" Keenan asked while looking at the catalog of the list of food menus available on the table.
"No, I'm not ready and I haven't graduated yet," Aldric replied then ate the last piece of his Burger.
Keenan nodded in understanding then turned to call the waiter to order food. while waiting for the food to come, the man talked with his cousin, they talked about the style of the car, motorbike, occasionally talking about the criteria for the girl they liked.

the driver stopped the car right in front of Ethan's house, Keyra immediately got off with Aaron who immediately took her suitcase in the trunk.
"Don't you want to stop by for a little to drink tea with me and my mom?" Keyra asked with a friendly smile.
"No, I have to get to my uncle's house soon, he must be waiting for me," Aaron replied with a smile as well.
"Okay then, maybe another time." Keyra quickly grabbed her suitcase. "I'll go in now," she said goodbye.
Aaron only responded by smiling and nodding, letting Keyra enter through the gate the security guard had opened.
'So this is the house of someone named Ethan, he seems very rich and I must admit that Keyra is very beautiful,' Aaron thought as he looked at Keenan's house from where he was standing, then he immediately returned to the car and asked the driver to take him home call his uncle's house

Keyra dragged her suitcase across the terrace to the living room where her mother was sitting on the sofa holding her smartphone.
"Mommy, I'm coming!" Keyra immediately rushed to hug her mother.
"Keyra, who did you come with? Why not with Mr. Toni?" Luna immediately charged at her daughter with a question as she let go of the hug.
"I'm with my friend, Mom," answered Keyra.
Luna sighed, looking at Keyra which made her panic because when Toni arrived at the airport, Keyra was gone and Toni informed her. it made her panic and think about Keyra's unclear whereabouts because she didn't pick up the phone either.
"You made me worried, I thought you were lost because Mr. Toni didn't find you at the airport," said Luna with a bit of annoyance.
"Oh my gosh, Mom...I'm a grown girl, it's impossible to lose or get lost, I've even dared to go abroad alone," Keyra replied while glaring at the orange juice on the table.
"Yeah, it's just that I'm worried that someone will do something bad to you." luna remembers that she has been a victim of Viona, Edward, and Sarah's crimes, it makes it easy for her to feel scared when her child is not in the news.
"Is this juice for me?" Keyra asked, interrupting her mother's thoughts.
Luna gasped then responded
Keyra's question. "Of course, Mommy also cooked your favorite food."
Keyra immediately took the glass of juice and then drank it, she drank like it had been half a century not drinking her favorite juice.
"Mommy's juices are the best," said Keyra with a smile towards her mother.
"Well, we should eat now," replied Luna.
"Are Keenan and Kevin not home?" asked Keyra who remembered her twin and brother whom she loved very much.
"Keenan started work today and Kevin is on his way to college," answered Luna.
"Then I will ask dad to build or buy a building for me to make a boutique because I will immediately start my mission," said Keyra ambitiously.
Luna look at her daughter, who seemed like just yesterday she was cuddling, now 23 years old and transformed into a beautiful girl more than she was when she was young.
"What's your mission? It's just something."
"Hem, I want to be a famous designer, my outfits will be exhibited by famous models. I can't wait to start achieving that mission," said Keyra dreaming.
"Later, mommy will help talk to dad about your request, or you can just seduce your dad," said Luna and then got up from the sofa. "Let's eat, I'm sure you must be hungry."
"Okay, but I have to change clothes first," Keyra replied then got up from the sofa, she immediately walked to her room which was upstairs adjacent to Keenan and Kevin's room, while Luna immediately went to the dining room.

after eating with Aldric, Keenan rushed back to the office before his father would be angry if he was late. The man drove his blue sports car to his father's office at high speed.
while crossing a less crowded street, Keenan's gaze shifted to the figure of a girl who was running from being chased by several thug-looking men. Feeling pity, the man blocked the girl who was being chased and then opened the car door.
"Hurry in!" Keenan.
the girl looked doubtful, then looked back at the thugs who were already close to her.
"Hurry in or they will catch you!" Keenan angrily because the girl seemed afraid of him.
without thinking, the girl immediately got into Keenan's car before the thugs managed to get to her. Keenan immediately drove his car at high speed in a steady direction towards his father's office.
"Why have they chased you?" Keenan asked occasionally glaring at the girl he was helping.
"There is a problem that they have to catch me," replied the girl with a bent face, she was very innocent and seemed to be afraid of Keenan too.
Keenan nodded understandingly and didn't want to interfere with the girl's problems, he remembered that it was impossible to bring the girl to her father's office.
"Where's your house? Let me take you home."
"If I go home, I'll just be in trouble and the thugs will pick me up at home," said the girl sadly.
"Why?" asked Keenan while slowing down the car.
"Because my mom will sell me to be the second wife of a rich man," explained the girl, then turned to look at Keenan. "Better drop me off here, I'll find a place to stay that's safe from their pursuit."
Keenan stopped the car, then looked at the poor girl intensely. the girl is naturally beautiful even though there is not the slightest amount of make-up covering her face, the lips are a bit sexy, the nose is sharp and the eyebrows are a bit thick. even though her hair was a little messy and wearing only a pink t-shirt and a knee-length skirt, the girl looks stunning." I will take you to a safe place," said Keenan seriously.
The girl immediately shook her head and said, "No need, I'll just look for rent, I don't want you to get involved in my troubles if you help me."
"You will be safe with me, don't worry, I will even free you from your troubles," Keenan coaxed with a pitying look at the girl.
"If you just live in a rented house and will work odd jobs, I'm sure they will catch you easily. So, stay in my apartment for a while, coincidentally no one occupies the apartment because I live at my parent's house," explained Keenan with full confidence.
seeing Keenan's sincerity and Keenan's face that showed no sign of being a bad person, the girl finally nodded in agreement because she had no choice. After all, living in the apartment alone, because the owner still lives at his parent's house.
