The Tough Trio And Elena
Chapter 90 After the Funeral

Steven and Jade's funeral was completed by noon. Elena was then escorted home by Mr. Hemp. In the afternoon, after finishing the Ashar prayer, Elena was still curled up in her grandmother's arm. He is still very saddened by Steven's passing.

Around 5pm, a car came in front of Elena's grandfather's house. Elena recognizes the car as Steven's family car. 'Who is coming? Is that Steven's papi?' Elena wondered in her heart. But all that came was Mr. Sofyan, the driver of Steven's family. He was carrying a large, well-draped object. After giving up the item, he resigned.

Elena immediately opened the parcel which turned out to be a complete Barbie Dream house doll house and its contents. There are Barbie, Ken, Barbie's father and mother, until the three Barbie sisters named Skipper, Stacy and Chelsea. Inside was a piece of paper that Elena recognized as Steven's handwriting. It is very short :

You can change Ken's name to Stevie and Barbie to Elena.

Be happy

Love, though,

Stevie

Steven ended his writing by listing the emoticon wink (blinking). Elena came back crying. Even while dying Steven was still thinking about giving this special gift to Elena. 'I'll never forget you, Stevie' Elena's inner self.

Steven died on Saturday. On Sunday afternoon, Dimas and Arya were seen at the airport delivering Sylvia to Germany. Sylvia will attend a conference attended by several representatives of doctors from around the world.

The conference will discuss the rare diseases that exist in the world. Sylvia is one of the doctors who will be presenting together with one of her patients who has the rare disease. The patient was on board with Sylvia on the same flight. The patient in the wheelchair was assisted by Mr. Hemp.

Mr's Plan. Rami will take Sylvia with her patients until Germany, after which she will return to her hometown. Mr. Rami is Singaporean. He is a former security guard at one of the star hotels in Singapore. He met Steven when Steven was attacked by a group of strangers while he was in Singapore. It was recently discovered that this group of people were Aldo's men.

After Steven's death, Mr. Rami no longer wants to work for Steven's family. It's actually dear, because Dimas and Arya want Mr. Rami continues to work as Hans's protector. But Mr. Rami who from the beginning met Steven was determined to serve him, after Steven's death he was no longer willing to work for Steven's family.

"Mrs. Rami, thank you for all your help during this time. We really owe it to you" Dimas said

"Don't mention it. I have enjoyed my work all this time. But now I can no longer serve Mr. Steven. I pray you are always healthy and happy, Mr. Dimas and Mr. Aryan"

"We also pray the same for you, Mr. Rami" said Arya and Dimas while greeting Mr. Hemp.

When it was time to board the plane, Dimas and Arya alternately hugged Sylvia.

"Good luck with the conference, Syl. Thank you for everything you've done for Tev" Arya said, hugging Sylvia. Dimas just hugged Sylvia without saying anything, as his eyes had already started to look glassy.

"Hopefully successful for you too, sir" This time Dimas spoke to Sylvia's patient while patting her shoulder gently. While Arya just squeezed her shoulders at a glance. The patient wearing the beanie and the mask just nodded his head without making a sound, because Sylvia told him that her patient had started to have difficulty speaking because her vocal cords had problems.

After confirming Mr. Rami, Sylvia, and her patients have gotten on the plane, Dimas and Arya then head to the car park to get home.

"Would you like to drive or should I, Dims?"

"You go, yeah'. I don't seem to have the energy to drive"

Arya just took a deep breath. He was just as sad as Dimas. But they have to be strong for Steven.

"Dims, looks like we're gonna have to find a new bodyguard specifically for papi"

"I agree ya'. I'll try asking my men later"

"Okay, Dims."

"You need to actually. Especially so far you are the one who is most often lost. Or lose yourself"

Arya rolled her eyeballs.

"Don't be a brave ass, yeah'. I know you can defend yourself. If your opponent is only one or two people, no problem, how much? I'll still find a bodyguard for you. Point. Don't argue anymore"

Besides Steven, Dimas also has several bodyguards whose existence is not known by ordinary people. They just watch from far away. Although Dimas likes to bring his own car, actually from a safe distance there is always someone following him to take care of him. Prakash, his older brother, lives and works in Singapore. Only Lili whose bodyguards are always visible, there are two people in total. One is in charge of carrying a car with his partner who always sits in the front seat with him.

After talking about the bodyguard, strangely on Monday morning, Dimas and Arya who were supposed to enter the office disappeared. Elena's permission because of illness. He told Dimas and Arya, and Cindy.

Now in the room Dimas there is only Cindy and Redi.

"Pak Dimas had a chat with me last night, mba. He said today he's the same Mr. Knight didn't come in, but he didn't tell me if it was because of illness or what. Probably still mourning the loss of Mr. Steven, his best friend."

"Yes probably too. Elena got sick too probably because she was too sad about the departure of Mr. Steven. He's Mr. Steven's girlfriend"

"really? How did I just know? I thought Elena was dating Knight"

"Yes, not many people know that Elena is dating Mr. Steven. But you don't talk to anyone, I'm not good with Elena!"

"Yes mba, safe. I'm not a gossip"

"Eh, but how can you think Elena's dating a Knight anyway?"

"Mba, what don't you see from every Elena seeing Mr. Knight? I think the Knight likes him too, but maybe because he's a man so he can hide his own feelings"

"Oh, you know what!"

"Yes, if you don't believe. But later if they have entered the work mba Cindy try to see them deh. I'd say if I thought"

Mba Cindy just nodded her head thinking maybe Redi has a point too.

Dimas and Arya are at an altitude of 3,048 meters in one of the highest mountain peaks that ranks 10th in Indonesia. They seemed to be sitting pensively together, while the four bodyguards stood around them while watching the surroundings.

This mountain was the first mountain they climbed with Steven. At that time Steven had just been appointed as CEO at Simmons Corp replacing his Papi who was then suffering from a stroke. At a young age, Steven has to take on a big responsibility. He became depressed and it made his two best friends worried.

During a long holiday, Arya takes the initiative to invite Steven to go up the mountain in three with Dimas. When he reached the highest peak of the mountain, Steven shouted loudly to release the burden that had been on his own shoulder.

Now, Steven's gone. Dimas and Arya reminisced about Steven with sadness.

"You know what people say when they lose someone like there's a hole in our chest?" Ask Dimas

"Yes, I've heard that term"

"More or less that's what I think it is now. We are everywhere always three, even though now we have busy and not every day can meet. Now we both live. Yesterday the tough trio turned into a tough duo anyway?" Dimas covered his face with both hands to cover his grief.

"Ga there's such a thing as a tough duo, Dims. If one does not exist, it means that the tough trio has no more. Because we were three of us. We have to move on for Tev, Dims. There are additional responsibilities from Tev that we have to live with as well. If you were him, he would do the same, right? Who else can help Tev if not us? What's Aldo's time?"

"Yes too. Yes, now we go home!"

"Yuk"

*So you know the name of the mountain that was climbed by Dimas and Arya? 😊
