Beautiful Affair
BA #54 - the truth

It's been three days since Alira left, and it's been three days that Daniel has searched but there's still no clue about Alira's whereabouts.

"Is Alira still unaccounted for?" jill asked Daniel, and Jill looked sad and anxious as Daniel shook his head weakly.

"I guess he did leave on purpose, though," Jill said later.

"Whatchu mean? Do you know anything about Alira?" Daniel asked, he looked at Jill curiously.

"I don't know anything, Alira's been closed about her personal life to us. But not Linda's mother, she must know something."

"Perhaps because Alira hates me so much, I think she deliberately left to leave me" said Daniel sadly. He contacted his men, asking them to stop the search.

"Why did you stop the search?" Ask Jill wonder.

"I think Alira left on purpose, Jill. Just let him go, maybe it's time I give up on Alira." Daniel said resignedly, he was tired of trying to keep Alira by his side where it did not provide happiness for anyone. Moreover, Daniel knows, it all started and because of him.

"I'm going back to the office, Jill. Call me if there's anything," Daniel and Jill said, nodding.

Daniel came out of the hospital holding Alira's phone, his lips smiling thinly but the wound was evident in the glare of his sharp eyes. Daniel turns off Alira's phone and puts it in her pocket.

.........

Meanwhile, without Daniel knowing, Ryan came home from Paris and now he was in a hotel not far from where Daniel lived.

Ryan's only coming to see Alira, to confirm the message Alira sent him. Because Ryan still can not accept himself just made an impingement during this time, while Ryan is so sincere in love with Alira.

Alira's phone has been out of touch for three days now, and it makes Ryan confused about who else to contact.

"Tessa.." murmured Ryan later. "God, why did I forget to ask her, when all this time I always asked her about Alira."

"How could you not know?" Ryan asked with a deep frown.

"He's missing, sir. It's been three days" Tessa replied to Ryan's surprise.

"missing? Lost how?" Screeched Ryan.

"I don't know either, sir. But it's been three days now Mr. Daniel is looking for Ms. Alira who he says is missing," replied Tessa who made Ryan immediately sit limp on the edge of the bed.

"So this is what you mean go, Al? You escaped?" Sizzle Ryan.

"Then what did you and we get with you run away, Alira? You want to make me and Daniel wait and look for you like fools? Or is it just your wits? Goddamnit!"

Ryan didn't know how to control his anger at the moment, but Alira had really driven him crazy.

.........

When it was night, Daniel went home and he was very surprised to see Ryan in front of his house while smoking and drinking alcohol.

Daniel got out of the car and approached his brother. "Ryan! How can you be here?" Daniel asked but Ryan only smiled slanted and looked at Daniel cynically, he looked very drunk.

"Jeez, Ryan...." Daniel tries to get Ryan into the house but Ryan pushes Daniel's body away from him.

"Ryan! Comein! You're drunk!" Daniel was upset. "And since when have you been here? Why didn't you tell me you wanted to go home?"

"I just came home to pick up Alira, Daniel!"
