Charity Auction (2): Two Second Challenges
Lucy read aloud the contents of the second challenge scroll to Aline.
"Congratulations! You're Getting Two More Challenges!"
Aline who heard Lucy recite the contents of this second scroll snickered and could only remain silent on stage. It's not because he doesn't want to face this challenge. Really, he was very sincere about following this event. It's just that, seeing the happiness full of sincerity radiated on Lucy's smooth face made her inexhaustible think of what made the woman so dislike her.
Lucy rewarded a cynical smile of disdain at the girl standing in front of the stage as if waiting for her execution. He deliberately linger to torture the girl waiting there. "Poor girl. I'll embarrass you!" his bathin.
Aline waited with her flat face on stage. Still waiting for the continuation of a pair of Hosts who were wandering among the guests, carrying pots containing challenges.
Lucy who was on the left wing again raised her voice.
"That means we'll take on two more challenges!" the thrill, as happy to see Aline is in trouble. Then he walked over to some guests while carrying a pot containing a challenge. Asking a guest to pick up a scroll and walk towards Dimas, handing over the scroll to be read by the tall and handsome-looking man.
"Bring a song to a loved one!"
Dimas' voice echoed in the room.
"If you only perform songs, I'm sure Ms. Aline will definitely be able to. There's no challenge. What if we add it using an instrument. For the winner of the auction, it is welcome to choose one instrument on stage for use by Ms. Aline." Lucy confronts the shareholders sitting at the VVIP desk to seek approval for her proposal. After getting the nod, he again guided the second auction for Aline who was standing on stage.
The auction event was slow.
"Alright, 258 million to three! The challenge this time is worth 258 million!"
"Good night. Sorry about whose father?" Dimas walked quickly to bring the mic to the auction winner, a man in his early 40s who came with a beautiful woman and a beautiful little girl. Wife and child.
"Ryan. Ryan Anggoro," replied the auction winner.
"All right, Mr. Ryan. Please choose one of the few instruments on stage on your right wing!" pinta Dimas's.
Ryan looked at his daughter. Ask the princess to choose. "I love the piano!" said the little girl.
"My daughter loves the piano, so we want to sing a song with the clang of the piano!" obviously Mr. Ryan.
Dimas nodded in understanding. Then he gave a light nod towards Lucy.
"Mr Aline, did you accept this second challenge?" he asked with a look of disdain, making the soul of a Tiocandra in him thrash. He casually nodded, making Lucy's face sour for a moment.
Aline took a position in front of the piano. He saluted the audience like a professional pianist. Aline is no stranger to this instrument. He often played piano with his mother and his father. Although not a professional pianist, Aline's expertise cannot be underestimated. He has won several awards since he was a teenager.
The beautiful music of pressed piano keys plays beautifully. Beethoven's melody as the opening that was brought was very melodious. But at once the sound changed with a sweet sound along with a melodious voice haunting a Rosaline Tiocandra.
...I open a blue album, full of dust and obsolete...
...I stared at all the pictures of myself, little clean yet stained...
...I thought it was floating, loving first...
...Remembering all the people's stories, about my history...
...To my beloved father, I want to sing...
...Though tears on my cheeks...
...Listen, I want to meet...
...Even if only in a dream...
...Look at the day changing, but not as beautiful as it used to be...
...Come I want to meet, for you I sing...
...They said I was too pampered...
...They said I was overwritten...
...Oh mother there is and there is no you...
...It's always in my heart...
(mother by Portrait and Father by Rinto Harahap)
The pianist's soft voice gave the audience goosebumps, plus a feeling of appreciation from the heart made many guests shed tears carried by the blue atmosphere. The two songs that were mixed into one by Aline really revealed his heart, delivered earnestly through a string of tones. His feelings reached anyone who listened, made to be swept away and felt Aline's longing for his parents.
Aline ended the song, she wiped away the tears that melted away just like that. As long as he misses the presence of mami and papi in his life again. But he did not dare to expect much. He realized who he was now to Dery Tiocandra's papi.
Aline then stood in front of the piano. The guests gave him a very big round of applause. He then lowered his head, saluting this appreciation.
Lucy reopened the next segment. He did not want the girl he did not like to linger enjoying a moment like this. However, Dimas' voice had already preceded him.
"A very beautiful appearance. I got the creeps made. I think the fathers and mothers agreed with me this time." Dimas reveals the heart of most guests. "Congratulations, Miss Aline! 258 Million have you added to the cash of Merajut Asa foundation!"
"Next we will take one more challenge to close this second challenge. Therefore, we ask for the willingness of Mr. Gunawan Atmaja." Dimas nodded giving the code to his partner, Lucy.
Mr. Gun stood up from his seat as Lucy approached the table he sat at with his wife and children.
Mr. Gun then took a roll from the pot and handed it to Lucy. Then, Lucy came back to Dimas who seemed to be part of the task to read out the contents of the scroll.
"Play five instruments/music instruments!"
Dimas exclaimed as he opened the scroll and read it. "It's heavy" he thought.
Lucy takes over immediately.
"We start from 258 million to the expertise of Mbak Aline playing with five instruments later." Lucy returns to find a gap to bring Aline down. However, Tiocandra's blood flowed absolutely in her veins, all-rounded and unhinged underrated.
Ricky who had felt that there was a discord between Aline and Lucy gave a note to his chat group with Bang Cris and Rio.
Lucy led the auction event at a pretty fantastic price, 510 million and it made Aline widen her eyes. Ricky Tiocandra is the auctioneer at this price. Not without reason, Ricky got a mandate from both of Aline's brothers.
"Congratulations, your challenge this time is worth 510 million. Absolutely fantastic. Ma'am Aline, do you accept this challenge? If you succeed, this amount of funds will be donated to the Foundation that you have chosen. Of course this is not a small amount. There are many things and many lives that can be helped with this money. If you refuse or fail, you will lose 90% and will get only 10. And that means your last challenge will be to start at a low price, costing 51 million. Hows it? Is it advanced or fitting?" ask Lucy to underestimate. He didn't know who he was challenging just now.
Aline was silent again. He stared intently at Ricky who gave a nod to the omens he had to follow this game. Then, the girl nodded with a flat face.
"Wow! It turns out that our participants this time were really brave! I'm curious about how great Aline is to play five instruments at once!" insinuations. Aline slab is so satirized.
"Alright, we go to the winner of this auction." Dimas walked over to the table occupied by Ricky and Aline earlier, before the girl was summoned by the committee.
"Sorry to whose father?" dimas asked the handsome man in front of him. All eyes were on the beautiful young man.
"Ricky, Ricky Tiocandra." Ricky answered his potluck, unaffected by the wiry and mascara spies who stared at him intensely earlier.
"Well, Mr Ricky, are you going to pick an instrument for our participants or hand it over to Ms Aline?" Dimas asked with excitement.
Lucy who had not seen the arrival of Aline and Ricky again threw a small smile at the girl.
Ricky nodded. "I saw there were DJ gears, harps, violins, gamelans, and flutes. I think it's fun to play modern or urban and traditional fusion music that way." Ricky smiled with his flagship smirk towards Lucy making Lucy proud to feel there are allies who also do not like the girl who was standing rigidly on stage hearing Ricky's request. In contrast to Lucy, Ricky knows Aline is good at playing everything, just that an incident in the past made him dislike two of the five musical instruments. Therefore, he also tried to make his beautiful sister can make peace with the past while removing the sickly smile of the female MC who had blatantly showed her dislike for her sister.
"Mr Aline, please take a position! This time the challenge was worth over half an M! Ladies and gentlemen, Aline!"
Aline took a breath many times and exhaled it. She's nervous. Ricky really kept his promise. Once he and bang Rio said that they would make his sister to dare to play all the musical instruments, again. Like old times. "Maybe it's time" Aline thought.
He walked over to the DJ's instrument. Use headphones, and start playing. He then took the harp, making synergistic tones. Then, switch to taking the violin and flute. His hands trembled as he held the two musical instruments. The two are reminiscent of a music teacher who nearly raped her a few years ago. Ricky who is watching looks very alert, hoping Rosaline is able to pass this challenge well, not only for the money to be donated, but also for the psychic good of her sister.
Ricky smiled proudly. The sister he loved managed to play beautiful melodies. Very lovely. And the appearance closed with a blend of DJ music with gamelan. Absolutely riveting. Guests give a standing applaus to the bowed girl paying her final respects. It looks so relieved. He exhaled many times, making some of the guests smile. Her pretty face is so cute and funny at the moment. So cute.
Unlike Aline, Lucy actually bent her face. Like paper, it is like paper that has been squeezed and crushed into a roll that is ready to be thrown in any direction. He holds his chest, not accepting the success of Aline through challenge after challenge with fantastic selling points.
Dimas sees Lucy who is not doing well taking over the stage.
"WOW!!! The spectacular! Very, very quiet!!!" Dimas did not want to bother hiding his admiration for the cleverness of the beautiful girl in front of him. "Truly high quality!" his bathin.
"Once again I have to congratulate you, Ms. Aline. I was really impressed with the appearance just now. Sanga-very amazing! Didn't we?" his question to the audience was answered by a nod by the guests.
"Yes, 944 million rupiah has flowed into the cash of the Asa Knitting Foundation. A foundation under the care of Atmaja Company that specializes in cancer patients. A pretty big nominal of course. Don't you think, Lucy?" Dimas throws a ball at Lucy who he sees has recovered.
"Yep, you were right Dimas. Our team this time was absolutely amazing. Are we continuing now?" Lucy passed the ball back.
"of course. The night is getting late and the event is getting hotter. Although by looking at Madam Aline I feel there is coolness surrounding me, but this event still has to continue!" Dimas scrawled, dimeh.
"All right! This is the final challenge!" Dimas and Lucy said it, as promised.
