People said the man's name was strong and gripping. Anyone would definitely instantly remember how sinister the prison was located in the middle of the island and was surrounded by that vast ocean. However, for Kanya, the name has magical powers and seems mysterious by hiding many mysteries that have not been fully revealed. Kanya remembers, she once nicknamed Alcatraz a similar math full of complicated formulas on her body. And, Kanya did not like that counting lesson the most. Long time ago. That is what makes him choose to wrestle the language with all its complexity as long as it does not need to be faced with numbers.
Now, for Kanya, Araz is no longer a math with all the hard formulas the woman never understood. Araz is an ancient script that is still being studied by researchers to this day. There are so many unsolved mysteries.
Not without reason Kanya equates the man with an ancient script. That's how it is. Araz incarnated the ancient script when Cassandra appeared suddenly in the man's parents' house. Very few words were spoken by the man when Kanya asked about Araz's female cousin. It was not that Araz did not want to explain who Cassandra was, but rather that the man seemed so careful when explaining it to Kanya. It was his prudence that made Kanya feel that there was something Araz was hiding. Especially when Araz let her sit alone with Cassandra.
"So, you guys in the new office, Araz?" cassandra asked to break Kanya's daydream.
"Yes," Kanya answered briefly.
They were in a gazebo located in the backyard of Araz's parents' house facing directly towards the family's estate. While other family members look busy picking vegetables and fruits that thrive in their gardens.
Initially, Kanya also helped Araz's parents pick some strawberries that had started cooking and vegetables while talking about Cassandra. However, suddenly the girl catches up to the back garden and forces Araz to talk to her alone. Although Cassandra's attitude makes Araz look uncomfortable, the man still agrees with his cousin's wishes, then asks Kanya to wait in the gazebo.
After the two men's conversation - which seemed suspicious to Kanya - Araz approached Kanya and asked her lover to rest in the gazebo alone, while she continued her morning activities with her father. Kanya suspects that there are talks she should not hear between the two men across generations. Although it looked like they were hostile to each other, the two men were actually very tightly bound. So, Kanya agrees to Araz's request and gives them time to chat together. Unfortunately, the opportunity was used by Cassandra to approach him.
To be honest, from the first time he met the woman, Kanya felt uncomfortable. Especially when the woman mentioned something about 'prospective wife' that she did not know her meaning until now. And, when Kanya asked Araz, the man did not give an answer.
"Definitely you're the one who shot, Araz? Yeah, who wouldn't like him. I'm handsome, pinter, have my own company. Yes, it is only natural that many have a crush on him. But, one thing you need to know, forever lo it will just be his girlfriend doang. Because Araz's soul mate, it's been determined since he was born. Unfortunately it's not lo" said Cassandra again.
This time it is clear that the question and the statement intend to demean Kanya. However, one thing Cassandra did not know, Kanya was not affected by the woman's speech at all. Although, it cannot be denied if Kanya is really upset about Cassandra's attitude.
Really, Kanya doesn't want to be seen if she seems upset with the woman. Because Kanya knows, that's what Cassandra really meant. He wants to provoke Kanya's anger in front of both Araz's parents in order to look bad. However, it would not be easy for Cassandra to intimidate him just like that. As for the pressure, Kanya had trained enough with Hanung over the years. And, the boss and friend also a figure who has been considered as a brother during his time in Jakarta, has stated Kanya passed the mental endurance test. So, he won't just lose to Cassandra.
"Lo knows me, right? Cassandra Cessa Lee's. The third generation of the Lee family's first child. Which means my bokap is the main heir to my grandfather's treasure. I am the queen of the Lee family. I am the one who keeps the Lee family's wealth from falling into the wrong hands. And as queen, I must have the right princely candidates. Do you know what that means? Araz, he's my prince's candidate. So, don't ever expect you to live with Araz forever, because since I was born, we've been tied up in a string of matchmaking."
A smile spread on Kanya's lips. His face did not look at all trepidation. She looked at Cassandra right in both eyes. There was a look of jealousy that emanated clearly in both of the women's eyes. However, Kanya still looked so calm.
Kanya admitted, Cassandra is indeed the perfect definition of queen for a kingdom built by the Lee family as the woman said. She was beautiful, her curves were so perfect, her eyes were firm and gentle at the same time - though now she was overwhelmed with a feeling of jealousy that could not be hidden. Not only that, he also had a level of confidence that Kanya could not match. And, Kanya believes wholeheartedly, if Cassandra is an intelligent woman. However, despite all that, one thing Cassandra does not know, if Kanya also has a strong determination not to let go of what she has at this time. Alcatraz Algol Sirius's. The man who had seized all of himself.
"Well, I understand what you're talking about, but one thing you need to know, I'm not going to be that easy to give up. Even though I will know the end of this relationship as you said. Yes, you are the queen in the kingdom that has been built with your grandfather. Then me? I am not the queen or princess of any kingdom, but one thing you need to know, I was born as a human who also has the same feelings as you feel for Araz. So, I will not just retreat, even if you use all the strength of your family to break down my determination.
Oh, one thing you need to know, it's not me who shot Araz first, but he asked me to make him his girlfriend. I guess you know Araz more than anyone, right? It means you know what I mean, right?"
Kanya did not take her gaze away from Cassandra when saying her rather long sentence. The woman was able to clearly capture the change in the look on the face of cousin Araz who looked so upset. Before leaving Kanya alone in the backyard gazebo, she had a threatening moment that only Kanya responded with a smile.
"Lo will be sorry!"
"Gue who will be more sorry if never fight for things that deserve to be defended," said Kanya in her heart. Shortly after, Araz approached her with a bamboo wicker basket full of fruits and vegetables.
