Playing Pretend

Indra saw Leon hesitated and he smiled assuringly. “Leon, please accept it. This painting will be of great value in the future. It is a painting by the gifted Basuki Abdullah.”

Sucyanti showed her objection.

“Grandpa, are you sure to give him this painting? It is extremely valuable!”

Sucyanti knew the painting by Basuki Abdullah was ten million dollars! Its value isn’t entirely measurable by money; the painting is very hard to find.

She pouted and said to Leon, “You don’t deserve this! I object!”

Sucyanti thought what she said would bother Leon. When she looked closer into his eyes, she could see he was offended.

This is a fake painting and you’re saying I don’t deserve to have it? Even the original Basuki Abdullah painting is a plain ornament to me! Not some kind of national treasure.

“Are you still pretending? You must’ve really wanted this painting!” Sucyanti continued firing at Leon. “Why are you pretending like you don’t care? I know your dirty tricks!”

Indra exploded in anger right there.

“Sucyanti! I’ve countlessly told you to behave yourself in front of Leon! I have decided to give him that authentic Basuki Abdullah painting the moment we met, and nothing is going to stop me from doing so!”

Judging from Indra’s seriousness, he must’ve have not known that the painting is fake.

Leon was torn at the current situation.

Indra came to Oregon to set up his antiquities trade. How would Indra, a professional in antiquities and culture, be attracted to the painting?

Indra turned to Leon and said in a friendly voice, “Leon… I was wrong to not discipline my granddaughter properly. Sucyanti is young and unwise, thus her arrogant and harsh behavior. Please just accept the painting. The gift would be much precious and meaningful if you do.”

Leon’s heart felt heavy. He gave his hand and accepted the painting.

Although Leon accepted Indra’s good will, it didn’t change the fact that the painting is fake!

“Grandfather Indra… I must be honest. There is something wrong with this painting.”

Sucyanti became even more annoyed at what she heard.
