20. Your Existence

"Huh? You bet?"

"Yeah, and you made me lose my favorite thing."

"Yes, sorry, I didn't know," Dara said, pouting her lips.

Calvin snorted "It's that easy for you to apologize."

"You're a rich man, you can definitely buy a new one. What do you want to do with your sports car anyway?"

Calvin gasped. "It...."

"The bet is he's asking for billions of investment in his private company."

"I see.. are you crazy, Vin? Want to bankrupt other people?" Dara asked sarcastically.

"Not like that."

"What's not like that?! You'd better pay off your bet, sports car? Throw it away!"

"Tsk."

Arka chuckled. "I won't take your sports car, but we have to beat me in the next game."

"Your bet?"

"No, this game is only for your car. If you lose, your car is still mine and if you win your car is still yours."

"Tsk."

"Do not want?" asked Arka defiantly.

"I will play for Calvin," said Dara.

"Are you sure you can beat me?"

"Yeah, I've never disappointed my friends."

"You are smart, but I won't lose to a girl."

Dara snorted. "Don't look at gender."

"How's it going, Vin? Are you all right?"

"Just play you two."

"Okay."

Dara and Arka prepared to play the game and finally they fought in the game, attacking each other and neither of them wanted to give up.

The lives of both of their characters in the game are both almost finished, they seem to be tied in the game and can't find the winner. Calvin who saw it also felt bored, because their game was too relentless.

Calvin went to look for food outside because he was hungry and shortly after Calvin's departure, Arka stopped his game by succumbing to Dara as the winner.

"Why? Tired?" Dara asked confused.

"You know what I bet?"

Dara chuckled. "To the point, Ar. You just know that if something goes wrong, we're getting smarter."

"As a friend of a Dara.. I should be able to match her genius."

"Oh yeah? Now what do you want to know?"

"Why doesn't Calvin know who you are?"

"Guess why."

"I'm serious, Dara."

"I'm serious too!"

"Dara."

"Huh... yes, yes...."

"So?"

"Actually, ever since I left you, I've always been hiding. I was more focused on revenge and during that time.. I don't want anyone to know who I am, this is also the reason I don't show myself in front of you. I need solitude, Ar, if Calvin knows who I am, he must know something else that you also don't know. I really don't want you to find me, because everything could be exposed. I just want to live comfortably until my revenge is complete, and maybe then I'll let it all out, "explained Long maiden.

"Why should you hide?"

"Because of dad."

"Hn?"

"If I come out of hiding, dad can immediately know where I am. The strength of the Calvin family is equivalent to that of a father, where bad things can happen if the Calvin family finds out who I am. And you, I'm actually really worried, Ar. But I believe the same You, I know you won't bring me down, your family won't care anyways."

"Ra...."

"So don't bring up my name before it's all settled."

"Sorry about the bet."

"It's okay," Dara stood up. "You wait for Calvin here, now I have to go to other things."

"Hn."

"You don't need to do more, Ar, I can do it myself. You know that I am strong."

"Hn."

Dara went out of the internet cafe and left Arka who looked at where Dara had gone, Arka didn't understand what Dara had said earlier. But Arka could no longer tell Calvin anything, because what Arka got from Dara's words was that it was all about Dara's family.

"Where's the Dara?"

Arka gasped. "Eh? Already gone."

"Where? Didn't tell me."

"I don't know either, Vin, if you want to know just look there."

"Angel."

"You go. You don't have to give me your car, I know it's your favorite car."

Calvin snorted. "Just say you lost to Dara."

Arka chuckled, actually it wasn't a defeat because Arka gave in to talk to Dara. After all, Dara and Arka's game will never end, because Arka knows that they both have the same strategy in playing.

In fact, if Dara and Arka played together, neither would win or lose because they played the same game. One of them will relent if they feel tired.

It's not that they give in because of a feeling, it's because they really feel tired or have played too long to lose track of time.

Turning from Dara and Arka's game, now Calvin has gone to find where Dara is. Actually, Calvin was very curious when he heard the secret word about Dara from Arka, but it seemed he had to find out for himself.

Continuing to find out where Dara is, Calvin goes around the city and all the available alleys to find Dara. Until Calvin arrived at his house, made him stop and choose to rest.

.

In the classroom, Arka looked at Dhian who ran so fast on the field with Calvin in carrying out her punishment. It was a sight that Arka was used to seeing, but he didn't get tired of seeing her two friends at all.

The girl who had made him curious for the past few days, Arka couldn't forget his personal secretary's explanation about the girl's unknown identity. Calvin himself had given up on knowing her identity.

Seeing Dhian for so long, suddenly the image of a smiling Dara crossed his mind. It reminded him of Calvin who couldn't find out Dara's identity, now Arka knew why Calvin couldn't find out.

Arka doesn't exaggerate anything about Dara, but he can't forget how genius Dara he can't match. Even though Arka knows Calvin is far above him, but seeing Calvin's efforts so far, Arka can guess that Calvin is the same as in dealing with Dara.

"Dhian!" call Calvin.

"Hm?"

"Let's go to the cafeteria, I'm hungry after being punished."

Dhian shook her head. "I have to take my first lesson."

"Too late."

"It's okay, the important thing is that you can come."

"You are huh...."

"Why?" asked Dhian confused.

Calvin shook his head with a smile and his hand touched Dhian's head, gently ruffling Dhian's hair and making the girl look down in shame because of Calvin's treatment.

"I also go to class, but at break time you have to go to the canteen."

"No, I have a presentation tomorrow."

"Hah..."

"You're angry?"

"No, I can't be angry with you. That's fine, I'll see you later at the library, eager to learn."

"Yes you too."

"Thanks."
