By late afternoon, the buses finally arrived in front of the WB group building.The participants were camping, alternately getting off the bus. The journey is exhausting, but certainly not comparable to what has been passed together, establishing the familiarity of fellow parts of large companies such as the WB group.
Before descending, Alfaro whispered something to Arumi. He asks Arumi to wait for him at a bus stop not far from the office. Arumi smiled and nodded slowly and got off the bus ahead of her husband.
Bima was already waiting there, waiting for Arumi in front of the office lobby. Yes, even though it has been rejected, it seems that Bima did not give up just like that, he still continued to try to get closer to Arumi. When he saw Arumi walking, about to get out of the office yard, Bima swiftly memorized it.
"Rumi!" call Bima.
Just as Arumi immediately stopped his steps, he turned around, looking at Bima who was currently walking towards him. Arumi wafted, when Bima was already in front of him. Bima is still trying to regulate her breath that is stingy.
"I'll take you home?" bring Bima.
"Ah that .. I don't go straight home, I have to go somewhere," Arumi said looking for an excuse.
"Where? Let me drop off," take Bima again.
"Emm that .. I have to stop by my friend who is around here, next time yes," said Arumi.
"Oh so, well," said Bima with a disappointed facial expression.
"Then I'll go, see you tomorrow."
Arumi dragged her suitcase, leaving Bima still standing in her place. Arumi is open to lying people, but after entering the world created by Alfaro, he must be as smart as possible to arrange words for a secret that must be maintained.
Bima turned around to go to the basement, where the car he had prepared since they left for the cloud village a few days ago. Her feelings are so mixed at the moment, in front of Arumi she is trying to toughen up, but in reality, she is so fragile because Arumi is her first love, a love that she cannot get.
After getting into the car, Bima did not immediately leave, he opened the drawer of his car's dask board, took a small box containing a beautiful necklace that he had prepared for Arumi. Again he let out a long sigh, while continuing to look at the necklace that he could not give to Arumi.
The plan was so mature he prepared, when going to leave for the camping event. But in reality he can only embrace empty hope without the idol he yearns for. Bima grabbed her phone as she felt a vibration inside her pants pocket. It was a phone call from my mom.
"Yes, Mi?"
[You're home, baby?]
"Yes, I'm on my way home, what's wrong?"
[Hurry home, Mom and Daddy have prepared dinner.]
"Yes Mi, soon Bima until."
[Okay, Mommy wait.]
Bima turned off the phone call. He turned back to the ring box in his hand and put the box back in the car's desk drawer. Bima started the car engine and drove away, leaving the basement of the WB group's main building.
While going out of the yard of the office building, Aril who was chatting with one of the security officers, Aril, bima accidentally saw Bima driving a black Mercedes-Benz Maybach Exelero out of the building. He frowned, he clearly saw Bima in the car.
Not that he's a friend of Miss's man, how can an ordinary employee have a car as expensive as it is, do I just wrongly see, inner Aril.
...***...
Arumi looked at the watch in her hand several times. Almost half an hour he was sitting at the stop itself, but Alfaro had not come yet, the day was getting dark, and the sky was so cloudy this afternoon, that the sun no longer greeted him before sunset.
The silence that bound her, made Arumi drift in her own mind. He stared at the road that was only passed by a few vehicles. In his mind he pondered, after what he and Alfaro had gone through, what steps he should take now, even though he was happy because of the unappetized taste. But honestly he was still confused as to what and how, because Alfaro was not an ordinary man. Yes, Alfaro accepted it but what about his world would it also accept Arumi?
Arumi awakens from her daydream, as Alfaro's luxury car honks. Alfaro got out of the car and immediately approached Arumi, Arumi immediately moved from his seat to welcome the person he had been waiting for his arrival.
"I'm sorry for a long time, there are some files that I have to take at the office" explained Alfaro who had taken over Arumi's suitcase.
"Let's go up, it looks like it's going to rain." Alfaro grabs Arumi's hand and takes her into the car. Alfaro puts Arumi's suitcase into the trunk and enters the car.

It was only half way, and it finally rained. For a moment Arumi was like feeling deja vu when the rain came back with the thunder that accompanied. The rain that was on his mind at this moment, was the rain that brought him and Alfaro together at that time.
"Did you remember the first time you found me?"
"Yes, of course .. The rain brought you to me, brought you to me" replied Alfaro.
"Suddenly I .. remembered those fearful times, when I had to keep running from the pursuit of leeches," Arumi said with her own face.
Alfaro moved his hand, grasping Arumi's hand tightly, "I will never let you feel that way again in your lifetime." They looked at each other and threw smiles at each other. Hopefully what you expect will go as it should.

Alfaro's car enters the Mansion area. When the car is parked in front of the main terrace, Arumi and Alfaro go down alternately. From the direction of the main door, Bi Ranti suddenly came out memorizing Arumi and Alfaro in a hurry.
"Aunt why?" alfaro asked as he looked at Bi Ranti's face which looked very panicked.
"I-it's inside there ...."
"What's Bi?" ask Arumi who is getting curious.
"The lady is big and Miss Almira is coming" said Bi Ranti in the end.
Alfaro and Arumi looked at each other. Arumi's face suddenly paled. It's too sudden, he's not even ready for this situation.
"Sir Al!" exclaiming Almira while scattering hugging the brother. From behind Almira, Mama also approached the son.
"Sir Al I miss," said Almira when she was in the arms of her brother.
"Mama's head is still dizzy because it has just arrived, you why not attend such an important event anyway," complained Mama while massaging her head.
"This is Ma's important event, my company's event."
Mama frowned, as she looked at Arumi who was standing behind Alfaro. A face that is certainly very foreign to Mama and Almira. Arumi could only keep quiet with a nervous feeling that started to come over.
"Al, who is he?" ask Alfaro Mama
"He ... he is ...."
"Who is this sister?" almira asked impatiently waiting for her brother's answer.
"I'm Bi Ranti Nyonya's niece," said Arumi suddenly, Alfaro turned his head back, looking at Arumi with a question mark. Not only Alfaro but Bi Ranti did not expect, Arumi would say that.
"Bi Ranti's nephew? Then why did you come with my son?" mama asked with an intimidating look.
"My wife, I worked at Mr. Al's company and when I came home I helped Bi Ranti in this house, I thank Mr. Al who gave me a ride today," Arumi said with all her heart.
Alfaro clutched tightly his two hands. It felt like her heart was so hurt when it came to letting Arumi say that. But he also could not avoid if the Mama was not yet able to know the status of Arumi now, because if Mama knew it was certain the Mama would rampage on Arumi. Now there's only one option - to keep it a secret from her mother to protect Arumi by her side.
