Jewelry shop



As always, Aldi likes to take Kiara to the biggest Mall in Jakarta. They went to the jewelry store. Aldi is leading the way while Kiara is just following him.


Realizing Kiara was walking behind him, Aldi suddenly stopped. Kiara who walked while looking to the right and left of the various storefronts on display was not aware if Aldi suddenly stopped. Kiara also hit Aldi's back until his nose and forehead were a bit painful.


But instead of apologizing, Aldi scolded Kiara. "You're why walk in the back like my servant!"


'servant'. Kiara frowned at the insulting tone as well as underlined Aldi's words.


"Walk by my side."


"You're too fast when you walk. I can't follow your broad steps, Al."


"Want me to drag?" With that said, Aldi held Kiara's hand as if dragging her. But actually Aldi slowed his pace by still holding Kiara's hand. Aldi hid his smile from Kiara.


Aldi deliberately took a detour to the jewelry store. Makes her hold Kiara's hand longer. Kiara herself began to suspect why they did not arrive at the jewelry store that Aldi wanted.


"Al, I'm tired." Kiara deliberately fished Aldi.


"The reason you're not welcome, we'll keep buying jewelry for you." Aldi felt sorry for Kiara too. So take Kiara directly to the jewelry store.


Arriving there, Kiara was well received by the shopkeepers.


"Show me some of your latest jewelry sets!" Aldi's orders to the shopkeeper. Hearing the word jewelry set, the eyes of the jewelry shopkeepers instantly shone brightly. It seemed like they were going to make a high sale towards the couple before them.


The store manager who was wearing a different uniform from the shopkeepers heard Aldi's orders. So the manager also approached Aldi and Kiara to promote their latest and most expensive jewelry.


In front of Kiara were three sets of jewelry. The manager said the three sets of jewelry were the latest collection with the best models the store had. Kiara herself admitted that the jewelry consisting of earrings, necklaces, bracelets and rings had their own uniqueness.


If you had to choose one of the sets, Kiara would definitely be confused as to which one to choose. But Kiara should choose the cheapest only. An additional set of jewelry was enough for him.


A set of jewelry that is his wedding dowry alone still has never worn Kiara. This jewelry when Kiara will have time to wear it.


"Do you like it?" After letting Kiara observe the three sets of jewelry, Aldi was already impatient to know if Kiara liked the jewelry that was in front of him at the moment.


"May know, how much does each of these jewelry sets cost?" Hearing Kiara's question, the shopkeepers and her manager changed slightly sour faces.


In their minds each began to feel that this couple before him was not a wealthy couple who usually bought jewelry that they liked no matter what the price. The manager began to feel sorry for serving them personally.


However, the shopkeeper and the manager have not yet mentioned the price of each of their three latest jewelry sets. Because their new customer who just became the young mistress of a rich family came to interrupt.


"For cheap jewelry like this alone you should consider the price, Kiara. Pffft" This familiar female voice suddenly answered Kiara's question about the price of jewelry. The woman sounded scornful while holding back a laugh.


"Well, welcome young lady Atmaja." The manager greeted the young woman who was none other than Bella, the mistress of Bima Atmaja.


"Thank you for the help." Bella was just making small talk. Intend to heat up other visitors at the jewelry store. Showing how great she was to be served as the queen as soon as she set foot in the shop.


"Manager Diki, why were those three sets of jewels not shown to me when I came here a few days ago?" Bella as if already familiar with the manager named Diki, increasingly want to show who he is today in front of Kiara and her former fiance who is nothing.


"Sorry, young lady. The mistress asked for jewelry that looked elegant when used daily such as when working in the office. This jewelry is more glamorous so it is more suitable to be worn to party events and the like."


"You should still recommend this very glamorous looking jewelry to me. I liked the three sets of jewelry as soon as I saw them from outside the store. And love it more when it's seen closer." Bella gets closer to Kiara and Aldi on the grounds of seeing the jewelry in front of Kiara.


Kiara herself felt that she did not recognize Bella in front of her. Kiara's shadow of Bella as a sweet and pitiful sister was gone. Bella in front of him is just a rich young mistress who somehow seems to like to show her wealth.


Aldi stepped to the side and grabbed Kiara's hand to make room for Bella to approach the jeweler whose origin was right in front of Kiara. Aldi also still observes Bella's behavior and Kiara's responses. Aldi tried to enjoy the stage Bella created for herself. Prepare beside Kiara for every bad thing that Bella will throw at Kiara.


Bella tried the bracelets and rings from one of the sets she thought was most unique. Accompanied by the manager who constantly promotes the advantages and uniqueness of the jewelry that Bella wears. The manager and shopkeeper did not mention the price or how many grams of weight of jewelry as Kiara usually sees in gold shops in general.


"It's good young lady. The jewelry that is being tried is very suitable to the color of your skin. Our jewelry makes you look more glamorous and look more luxurious." One of the shopkeepers who helped pair the bracelets commented.


"really?" Bella raised the hand that was already wearing the bracelet and the ring upwards as if she was glaring at the sheen of the thing wrapped around her fingers and wrists. It was nice to show it off in front of Kiara. "I think it's also suitable. I'll take this set of jewels."


Bella returned the attempted bracelet and ring to her jewelry box. The manager was happy to imagine tonight would sell a set of the most expensive jewelry in his store to the young mistress.


But who would have thought Aldi who had just been a spectator now even spoke up. "My wife hasn't decided which one she's going to choose. You as a manager can not prioritize service to new customers!"


Manager Diki was surprised to hear Aldi who had been thought not to buy jewelry instead spoke up. The manager can't let Bella's transaction fail. According to Aldi it is not certain that he and his wife will buy a set of jewelry in front of them like Bella.


"Sorry sir. I guess the master from earlier was silent because he did not choose one of these jewelry sets." Manager Diki was still trying to look polite.


"Did my wife or I say no?" Aldi's vision started to cool.


"Ti. no sir. Forgive me." the manager bowed. Started to be frightened by the piercing cold look in Aldi's eyes.


"I took all three sets of this jewelry." All the people in the store both the shopkeeper, manager and Bella and Kiara as visitors were shocked to hear Aldi's words.


'There was no way an ordinary man could afford these three sets of expensive jewelry. Only the rich could buy expensive items suddenly without blinking' The store manager thought.


'This guy might be bluffing. Maintains self-esteem in the presence of his wife. The original cannot pay.' Think of one of the shopkeepers


'At least Aldi took out his credit card. I might have that kind of money. I'd be happy if her credit card had a limit and couldn't be used to pay for jewelry this expensive' Bella thought.


'Oh God. Again buy expensive things. The amount purchased was too much anyway.' thought Kiara
