Behind the Rain and Memories

66. One Plan

Alina looked at the ceiling of the room with a restless feeling. It's past midnight, but Max hasn't come home yet. He repeatedly went in and out of the room to make sure all he found was silence. Adrian suddenly came home because there was a problem that he had to overcome, Alina had asked what the problem was, he said personal problems had nothing to do with Max.

Adrian asks Alina to be calm, because Max must be okay, he also advised Alina not to open the door if anyone comes. Because Max will enter with a password without having to wake the person inside. Alina understands.

But a few hours passed the figure awaited has not also appeared the trunk of his nose. Alina's anxiety becomes further compounded by Max's inactive phone.

Alina had thought of asking Max to mommy, where she knew the man had gone home to the mansion, but stopped him from doing so, if it turns out that Max is not there mommy and her family will follow her anxiously as she is now. After all, if you are in the mansion, Max will definitely be patient.

For the umpteenth time the girl went back from sleep, did not want to wake up Retno's bike that was already slumbering next to her he moved slowly. His goal now was the kitchen, he made a cup of warm chocolate. Hopefully after this drink he will relax. The distinctive aroma rattles the sense of smell, smoke billowing from the mug reads I love U.

" It looks like it will be more delicious while looking at the scenery of the capital." muttered Alina to herself.

He also walked to the balcony. Tonight the bright star-studded sky that flashes coupled with the glittering lights in the distance adds to the darkness of the night.

Almost half an hour Alina was standing there, the contents of the mug were also toilet. He comes to the conclusion that Max is not coming home. I don't know where the guy is right now, I hope Max doesn't do anything that could be dangerous. Alina believes Max can take care of himself.

Alin turned to sit on the sofa.

" Dear Happy Anniversary, it doesn't feel like it's the fourth year now" said the girl, looking at a picture of the two of them on her phone with a big smile.

Not once did Alina forget their anniversary, even while still being cared for first. He doesn't forget to include prayers for Max as well as their relationship. Given how Max struggled all this time for him, it did not feel clear bulir rolling from the corner of the eye.

" I'm sorry baby, I was always selfish, lost without news and so back often troublesome and also disappointing you, "sorry to yourself.

Now it was time for Alina to take steps for this relationship. He doesn't want to keep hanging Max without certainty.

An idea flashed through his mind. Rushing the girl inside and into Max's study, with a smile that could not be separated the girl borrowed Max's laptop and typed something there.

Alina stretched out a body that felt a little sore. He glanced at the wall clock that was already showing at four in the morning.

" There was still time for a break, "Alina hurriedly tidied up Max's desk then walked out of the room.

In the morning, Bik Retno was surprised when she turned to her bedside.

" Is non-Alina awake? " the middle-aged woman muttered hurriedly up, as quickly as she could make her bed and look for the girl to the bathroom, but Alina was not there.

Bik Retno exited the room to look for Alina's whereabouts and breathed a sigh of relief when she found the girl asleep on the living room couch.

" It looks like he's waiting for Mr. Max's return, I should have told him that Mr. Max isn't coming home, but I fell asleep, "the woman muttered again.

Last night before leaving Mr. Max had told Bik Retno that after midnight he did not return, no need to wait. Max does not convey to Alina directly because he does not want to disturb her break.

Bik Retno rushed to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. As soon as breakfast was over, he woke Alina up.

" Non Alina, breakfast used to be non, from last night non Alina did not eat anything, "call her soft. Alina rubbed her eyes, stretching her hands up. His body is always sore when he stays up.

" Good bi, what does aunt cook? "

"Non macem-macem cooking, there is rice and side dishes, if you don't like aunts also make sandwiches, "

Lucky Mr. Max had asked him to shop for food stocks before going to the apartment yesterday afternoon.

Alina swallowed the salivary, tempted by the menu mentioned. Especially his stomach. He woke up .

After finishing a plate of rice a complete portion and also a slice of sandwich. Alini got ready, took a shower and changed clothes. Audrey was able to leave a change of clothes through Adrian.

This morning he'll do all the planning he's been thinking about from last night. A new press conference will be held after lunch, the news he got from Gladys via chat message just now. There's still time.

Not to forget the girl told Audrey and Aditya to come to Mulia Jaya this afternoon. He wanted his family there too. It is not the good name of the two of them that must be restored. But also the name Aditya. The news must have greatly affected the credibility of his brother. Her sister's company will be destroyed because of the loss of clients. He can't just let it go. He knows very well how Aditya's struggle to pioneer his favorite business from the beginning.

" Why not ask to be picked up Mas Adrian aja non, or the driver Mr. Max, "ask Bik Retno as soon as he said goodbye. I'm worried that Alina is okay. Last night's news spread quickly. Surely people will realize the existence of Alina.

" Don't be bi, I'll go alone, don't papa, "

" When anyone recognizes non Alina how? "

" There will be this bik, "Alina shows the mask and then puts it up.

Bik Retno nodded in understanding.

Meanwhile..

" About what they're going to do is dit, why am I stubborn"

" Max must have thought about it, don't worry. "

Tok.

The two looked towards the entrance that was indeed open.

" Assalamu'alaikum mbak, mas"

" Greetings waalaikum, please enter RT sir, "greet Audrey kindly after realizing who came to their house this early.

" Thank you, ma'am" said the middle-aged man as he sat down.

" So, mas, I apologize in advance, about the news that is going viral, I do not believe in the news because I know the family Buk Ranti from the first time living in our neighborhood, he said, It's just that some residents continue to talk about this problem and ask me to ask you directly here, they don't want the environment here bad in the eyes of people, " said Mr. RT with a condescending expression, fear offending.

" I thank you, because RT sir does not believe, and I understand the unrest of the people here, " replied Aditya wisely.

"I'm sorry, I just don't want people to act alone, so I have to hear the truth from my family and I hope they understand"

Aditya nodded in understanding.

" What is certain is that the story is a lie, RT sir,

because actually Maxime Arlingga Yogatama is Alina's fiance and soon they will get married. I don't know who can spread hoax information. We're still looking for tau, "

"So they're engaged! thank goodness then."

" Yes sir, for more clarity we will do a press conference this afternoon and will be broadcast live on the TV station, " added Audrey again.

Mr. RT was bearded for the explanation of the brothers. Feel enough with what was conveyed by Mr. RT was saying goodbye.

" Maybe we have a wrong answer" said Audrey

Aditya frowned

" Alina hasn't agreed to marriage, you know how she's doing, we can be labeled liars if Alina and Max don't get married" Audrey continued

"Don't think of something that hasn't happened yet, drey, "

Alina paid some money to the online taxi driver she was riding in. Then get off the black car.

The girl's move was intercepted by the guard who was on duty in front of the mansion's gate. Since yesterday's incident, the guard at the mansion has tightened.

" I'm sorry, ma'am, who do you want to meet? " ask the man in safari clothes.

" I want to meet mommy widya, " said Alina as she opened the mask. But it seems like the man doesn't know Alina. Of course, because some of them were newly assigned.

" Have an appointment before? " ask the man again.

Alina shakes.

"Tell me if Alina wants to see you, sir, "Alina said kindly. He understood the man was just running errands.

" Then I ask for his identification, mbak, "

Alina opened the bag and gave what was requested. The guard went straight into the post and called someone. While waiting for , Alina put the mask back on. He sat in a chair provided.

The mansion gate opened and a white sports car came out, passing through Alina just like that. Because the girl's sitting position is turned back to the gate. Not a few meters back the car.

" Al, what are you doing here? "
