"It's not my room." Cleo walked out, she saw that there was still one room she had not entered. Cleo walked over and opened the door. Cleo was very sure it was her room, because she saw her suitcase was there. Cleo walked in and looked around the room. The sound of his cell phone.
"Hallo!" the answer.
"What are you again?"
"Just come home." Cleo replied.
"Why is your voice like that?"
"I'm tired, Mas!" Cleo threw her body on the soft mattress.
"Did your husband cause any more trouble?"
"What kind of Earth? Why are you talking about him?" it turns out that the one who contacted him was Bumi, his cousin's brother.
"You don't have to lie. From the way you talk, I know that you are not happy right now." replied Earth.
"Ah, that's just a guess." Cleo lied back. He didn't want Earth to know what was going on in his life.
"Be aware that the man dares to hurt you." he threatened.
"What the hell, Mas? That's not gonna happen." Cleo didn't want Earth to make a fuss if she knew what Andreas' attitude was like to her. From the beginning the Earth has been against this matchmaking. Because he thinks Cleo has the right to determine her own life path. "Mas, I'm hungry! I ate first!" they ended the conversation. Cleo just reasoned. He did not want Earth to pry any further regarding his relationship with Andreas. "I'm sorry, Mom!" he said while staring at the wallpaper on his phone. There's the longest she's ever been and the Earth looks so happy.
Earth Arkana, Cleo's cousin. Since living in London, the Earth has taken care of her. The earth never let anything happen to him. Especially after Adam died, Earth took over his duty to guard and protect Cleo. Their relationship is like a sibling. They fill each other up.
"I'd better take a shower." Cleo picked up her change of clothes and walked towards the bathroom.

"Where's your boss?" andreas asked when he reached a boutique.
"He's coming out, sir." replied the woman.
"What the fuck? He asked me to come, but he's not here himself?" Andreas looks upset.
"He told you to just wait in his room." Andreas immediately headed for Gilang's room, his best friend.
"TOK TOK." Andreas turned his head when he heard someone knocking on the door.
"Please drink, sir." said the boutique waiter to her. Andrew said nothing. He was busy with his cell phone. "Sir, do you remember me?" ask the woman who was none other than Nayla. Andreas looked over and looked at him.
"You ....?"
"Yes, I was at the club yesterday" replied Nayla.
"Oh..., so you work here?" tanyakanya.
"Yes." answered Nayla.
"What are you doing here? Do you need a suit?" tanyakanya.
"No. I have an appointment with Gilang." he replied.
"Oh yes, sir, I haven't had time to thank you yesterday." Nayla blushed in shame.
"No problem" he answered.
"But, thanks to you that night I survived. If there's no you, I don't know what my fate is." Nayla was being very friendly to him.
"What are you guys talking about? Are you flirting with my staff?" Gilang who had just come immediately approached them.
"Where have you been?" ask Andreas.
"Sorry, I had a little business" he replied. He sits at his desk. Andrew stood up and approached him.
"I don't like waiting the most. You know that." he said.
"Why are you still here?" instead of answering, Gilang asked where Nayla was.
"Pardon me, sir." Nayla rushed out of there.
"Why did you ask me to come here?" ask Andreas.
"It's about Mahen" he replied.
"Mahen? Why with?" ask Andreas.
"Do you know that Mahen loves Yuna?" ask Gilang. Andreas nodded. "Then, what's your response?" tanyakanya.
"That's the right, we can't stop people's feelings" Andreas replied.
"That's not gonna happen. Mahen will not do anything that will harm himself." he said.
"I'm just worried." Glazed looks anxious.
"Easy! Let's just trust Al. I'm sure Alvaro can solve all of this." Andreas seemed to know his anxiety.
"Where are you going?" ask Gilang.
"Go home" he replied.
"But I'm not finished!" gilang shouted as Andreas was at the door.
"I told you, we trusted Al." he opened the door.
"Aggh!! He's not helping at all." Gilang grumbled.
"Master!!" Andreas stops when he sees Nayla running towards him.
"What's wrong?" tanyakanya.
"What can I ..." Andreas' phone rang. After answering the phone, he looked back at her.
"Well, I'll be right back" he said after receiving the call. "I'm sorry, but I'm in a hurry." Andreas immediately left Nayla just like that. He has to go back to the hospital.
"Do you know him?" ask Nayla to her co-workers.
"He's doctor Casano, a friend of Mr Gilang" he replied.
"Doctor Cassano ....?" Nayla kept looking at him until he left.

"Did he have no food?" Cleo opened Andreas' refrigerator. Empty, there's no one there. You'd better shop." Cleo took her jacket and wallet. He saw there was a mini market not far from the apartment before.
"Where is he?" Andreas who just came home did not see Cleo's whereabouts there. He walked towards Cleo's room, after having been for quite a while, Cleo was also invisible. Andrew opened the door, and found no one there. "Where else is he?" Andrew turned around and walked towards his room. When I opened the door, I heard the sound of the door opening from outside.
"Where have you been?" andreas asked when he saw Cleo coming in.
"I just ...."
"Can't you just stay here? Why do you always act as well as you do?" enragedly.
"But, I'm just going to the mini market to buy this." Cleo lifted her trunk.
"I don't need your reasons. From now on, if you want to get out, you need to let me go." Cleo.
"For what?" tanyakanya.
"Don't protest! It's my house, so you have to follow my every word." after saying that, he walked to his room. Leaving Cleo who was still glued alone.
Cleo walked towards the kitchen, she neatly arranged all her groceries. After that Cleo started cooking instant noodles that she had deliberately bought. At first, he decided to cook dinner. But, seeing Andreas scolding her for no reason, made her cancel her wish. After all, Cleo left the kitchen and brought the instant noodles to the dining table.
"The rueppttt!!" Cleo sipped her homemade instant noodles.
"Can't you eat politely?" ask Andreas who was there.
"This is how you eat noodles." Cleo went back to sipping the noodles. His voice made Andreas disturbed. Andreas put the glass on the table, then he walked towards the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator, and saw that it was already half filled.
"Did he buy all this?" said slowly. He picked up an apple and walked towards Cleo.
"Can't you cook?" tanyakanya.
"Can." Cleo replied as she continued to eat the noodles.
"Then, why don't you cook anything?" tanyakanya.
"I've cooked this." Cleo pointed at her already empty bowl.
"Are you always this arrogant? You live in my house. So, at least you should think about me too. You don't live here for free." Cleo stood up and carried her bowl back.
"Didn't you hear me?" shouted Andreas.
"I don't want to live here, but you!" Cleo stared intently at him. "If you don't like it, I'll go home." Cleo left him alone
"Based on a rat!!" it felt like he was expelling Cleo this time as well. But, she couldn't because of Jasmine.
