A few days after the Budi betrayal incident, Luky felt the need for a pause. The pressure of the consortium and massive business operational burden began to be felt. He needs time to relax his mind and, what is more important, spending quality time with the closest people who have been neglected.
That morning, he was having breakfast with his mother, Nana, and his two younger siblings, Sisi and Adi, at Mansion Kemang.
"Brother finally can have breakfast with us," said Sisi.
"Yes, sorry if lately it's very busy," Luky answered.
"Already, the important thing is you are healthy. But don't forget your family, Luky," advised Mrs. Nana.
"Yes, ma'am. Actually, I have a plan. I want to invite you to vacation."
Adi who was still in high school was immediately excited. "Where's the vacation, Sis? To Disneyland again?"
"More than that. We will vacation with a cruise ship."
Side and Adi's eyes sparkle. Ms. Nana looks doubtful.
"Cruise ship? That's not an ordinary vacation, Luky. That's very luxurious."
"Mrs. Delerve is the best. And this is also for a little business interest."

Luky immediately agreed to the mission. He called his assistant.
"I need to buy a cruise ship. Budget 50 trillion. Look for the ready to sail, complete facilities, and professional crew."
"There is a brand or model preference, Mr. Luky?"
"The important thing is comfortable for the family. Find the one who has a Master Suite cabin for mothers, VIP cabin for younger siblings, and ... a separate cabin for me and special guests."
"Special guests?" asked his assistant.
"Natasha. He will also participate."
"Understand. I will process immediately."
The process of purchasing a cruise ship was faster than estimates. A luxury cruise boat branded feadship, named "Serenity", was in the port of Bali and the owner was willing to sell at a price of 48 trillion rupiah. The 100 meter long ship has 6 luxury cabins, swimming pool decks, cinema rooms, spas, and helipads.
Luky made a video call with the captain of the ship to make sure everything was ready.
"All systems are in top condition, Mr. Luky. Our crew consists of 15 people who are very experienced. We are ready to serve you and your family."
"Good. I will come tomorrow with my family."
Luky then called Natasha.
"Nat, is there a holiday next week?"
"Holidays? Looks like I can set it. Why?"
"I want to invite you, my mother, and younger siblings on vacation with a cruise ship. Want?"
"Cruise ship? Luky, that ... Wow. Yes, I want to! But I have to ask permission to go to campus first."
"I have taken care of it. I have told the Chancellor. This is also part of a special project for the university," Luky said with a smile. He had already asked the Chancellor to give a special permit to Natasha.
The next day, a car fleet picked up Ms. Nana, Sisi, Adi, and Natasha to the airport. From there, they took Luky's private jet to Bali.
When they arrived at the Port of Benoa, Bali, they were welcomed by the captain of the ship and the entire crew that lined up neatly.
"Welcome to the ship Serenity, Mrs. Nana, Mrs. Sisi, Mr. Adi, and Mrs. Natasha," said the captain.
Ms. Nana was fascinated. "The ship is very big, Luky."
"This is for us, ma'am. Let's go up."
They were invited to tour. Sisi and Adi immediately ran to the pool deck.
"So cool, sis! There is a swimming pool on the ship!" Exclaimed Adi.
"And see, there is a slide that goes directly to the sea!" added side.
Natasha approached Luky. "This is all extraordinary, Luky. Thank you for inviting me."
"You're part of the people closest to me now, Nat. It should be."
After all the items were lowered, the ship sailed leaving Bali to Labuan Bajo. The trip will take several days by stopping at snorkeling spots and private islands.
On the first day, they spent time on the deck. Ms. Nana was willing to sunbathe while reading a book. Side and Adi Fun Swimming. Luky and Natasha sat on a lounge while enjoying juice.
"This is exactly what I need," Luky said. "Far from all the pressure."
"Sometimes we really need to reset. Especially after the incident with Budi," answered Natasha. "How about the family?"
"They are fine. I place it in a safe location. The consortium hasn't dared to act anymore."
In the evening, they had a luxurious dinner prepared by a professional chef on the ship. The table was beautifully decorated, accompanied by lights and starry.
"This seafood is very fresh," said Mrs. Nana.
"Yes, ma'am. Arrested today too," Luky answered.
After dinner, Luky took Natasha to take a walk in the top deck.
"Seriously, Luky. Thank you. This is my first experience on a cruise ship."
"You're welcome. Actually, there are other reasons I invite you."
"What reason?" Natasha asked curiously.
"I want our relationship to be more serious, Nat. I know my world is full of risk and complexity, but I want you to be in it."
Natasha smiled. "I also want to, Luky. But we have to slowly. I am still a lecturer, you are a university owner. That could be a conflict of interest."
"Let's arrange it. The important thing is to be honest."
The next day, the ship arrived at Labuan Bajo. They ride a small speedboat to explore small islands and snorkeling to see beautiful fish and turtles.
"Look, sis! The clown fish! Like Nemo!" Adi shouted while snorkeling.
Luky held Natasha's hand as they both floated in the water, enjoying the charming underwater scenery.
"This is heaven," Natasha whispered.
"With you, indeed heaven," Luky answered.
In the afternoon, Luky held a barbecue at the deck. Family and Natasha enjoy a relaxed atmosphere.
"Brother, when else can we vacation like this?" asked side.
"We repeat sometime. Mother must also be on vacation often," Luky answered.
"Yes, but don't always be luxurious, Luky. The important thing is we are together," said Mrs. Nana.
On the third day, Luky got a call from Colonel Bernard via Satellite Phone.
"Luky, we got information. The Consortium knew you were on vacation and they might try something. Increase vigilance."
"In the middle of the sea like this, they will be difficult. But thank you for the info. I will tighten security."
Luky immediately ordered the captain of the ship to stay away from the usual route and asked his security team to disguise as a crew to be fully vigilant.
Natasha saw a change in Luky's attitude.
"What is it?" he asked.
"Safety routine reports. There is nothing serious," Luky answered trying to calm down.
That night, when the ship sailed calmly, suddenly the lights went out. The ship becomes pitch black.
"What happened?" shouted Mrs. Nana.
"Calm down, ma'am. Maybe temporary electricity disorders," Luky said while reaching for an emergency flashlight.
He immediately headed to the control room. There, the captain of the ship was panicked.
"The navigation system totally died, Mr. Luky. And communication was also cut off."
"This is not a coincidence. Check a backup generator!"
Suddenly, the sound of the motor boat approached quickly. Some small boats approached the ship.
"Pirate!" shouted one of the crew.
Luky's security team was immediately alert. They took out a firearm.
"Don't shoot except forced!" Luky's command. "Protect family and Natasha!"
Luky ran to the cabin where his family. He found that they had been collected by two guards.
"Stay here! Don't get out!" he commanded.
He and his security team went up to the deck. Some armed people have tried to go up to the ship.
"This is a robbery! Submit a valuable item!" shouted one of the pirates.
Luky uses his Strategic Foresight skill.
[Possibilities 80%: This is not an ordinary pirate. They were hired by The Consortium. Purpose: Capture or kill the target.]
Luky took a megaphone.
"We will give what you want. Don't hurt anyone."
One of the pirates onwar, "We want Luky Pratama! Leave ourselves, or we shoot everything!"
Luky knows this is a trap. He gave the code to his team to take a position.
"I'm Luky Pratama! I will give up, but don't touch others!"
He walked slowly forward with his hands lifted. When he reached the edge of the deck, he gave the eye code to his safety head.
Suddenly, the ship's spotlights brought in bright, dazzling the pirates. At the same time, Luky's security team hiding in the lifeboat attacked from behind.
Luky, with his premium fighting skills, seized weapons from the nearest pirate and paralyzed it. A short battle occurred. Luky's more trained and professional security team managed to paralyze all attackers in a few minutes.
"Secure them! Interrogation!" Luky's command.
After the situation was safe, Luky immediately checked his family. They are all fine, just scared.
"It's finished, ma'am. They are just ordinary robbers," Luky lied to calm his mother and younger siblings.
Natasha looked at Luky with a look of tofu. "This is not an ordinary robber, right?"
"No. But now it's safe."
The next day, after the ship system was repaired, they continued the vacation with tightened security supervision. Luky ensured that the incident did not damage the atmosphere of the holiday.
On the last day, when the sun set, Luky gathered everyone in the deck.
"Sorry, the vacation is disturbed."
"The important thing is we all survived," said Mrs. Nana. "But please next time don't have a dangerous vacation, Luky."
"Yes, ma'am. Promise."
Luky looked at Natasha. "Still want to continue the relationship with people whose vacation can be attacked?"
Natasha smiled. "That is precisely making you more interesting. But please don't often."
They laughed. Luky feels this is a successful vacation, despite disturbance. He managed to make the family happy and his relationship with Natasha was getting stronger.
