The afternoon was very bright. The sun was no longer stinging by the pool behind Cytra's house. The breeze blowing sepoi brings the fragrant aroma of frangipani flowers.
Under the lush frangipani tree, Alberto sat looking at the cascade of pond water. There Cytra was swimming quietly. The clear tube looks shiny exposed to dim sunlight.
Alberto recalled seeing Cytra and Many wearing shorts and singlets cleaning in the yard. But the view this time was much more beautiful than back then. Especially when he emerged from within the pool, climbed up the stairs and wrapped a wide towel covering his sensitive body parts.
"Like an angel who has just taken a bath from the kahyangan!" murmured Alberto watching Cytra's body walk to where he was sitting under a frangipani tree.
Cytra was actually uncomfortable sitting next to the handsome man in skimpy clothes. But since feeling competing with Hanna, Cytra needs to show her merits in front of Alberto.
"You are so much prettier than Hanna" said Alberto as Cytra got in front of her and picked up orange juice from the table.
"Say what the hell you are. I don't like you comparing to him" Cytra said as she sat back in the chair after sucking the orange juice..
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to compare you to him. Because he has nothing to do with you" Alberto said.
"If he's nothing, what did you take him to the office for?" ask Cytra.
"I couldn't stop, he came very suddenly and forced the aide into my office" Alberto said honestly.
Cytra believed that. He himself when he wanted to meet Alberto was also detained by the Adjutant at the entrance. But by reason of him his wife finally aide Alberto let him in. Maybe Hanna used the same tactics as her. I could meet with Alberto.
But Cytra doesn't want to just show up believing Alberto's reasoning.
"I can't believe it. I think you still have love for him, so it's not hearty when you say you don't meet him."
Cytra's sentence slightly cornered Alberto.
"I don't really love him anymore. I broke up our relationship ended. But he still keeps pushing me."
"No love but you feel sorry for not meeting him, right? That's your name still darling." Cytra kept cornered Alberto.
"Really, Cy. I don't love him anymore. But maybe you're right. He came all the way from Australi when I could not see him" Al said.
"As long as you still feel sorry and there is no intention to stay away from him, huh."
"Keep what I have to do. Do you have any ideas, suggestions or solutions?" ask Alberto.
"Not got!" ketus Cytra replied
"Help me, Cy. I'm not lying, I don't love Hanna anymore. I wanted to stay away from him" Alberto said in earnest.
"Saran? I am your mother, your teacher. You're no longer a child in this matter" said Cytra more purposefully tickle Alberto's feelings.
"I came here to tell you something" Alberto said, leaving Cytra momentarily stunned.
"Something you want to say?" ask Cytra curiously.
"Please help me some time. Once Hanna gets away from me I won't ask you for any more help" Alberto promised.
"What do you need my help with. Money or my energy to get Hanna out of your life?" Cytra.
"Not... That's not. But you don't get angry. I need you to be my girlfriend for a while."
PYARS!!
Cytra's head suddenly felt like it was breaking into pieces. All this time he was waiting for Alberto to invite him to be his lover. But not a temporary boyfriend or a shadowy lover like the one said just now.
"Where, Cy. Can't you?" ask Al.
"I want to go inside first change clothes" Cytra said as she got out of the chair and stepped inside the house.
Alberto felt bad and regretted expressing his intention. He just gawked at Cytra walking into the house.
In the room after rinsing her body in the bathroom and changing clothes, Cytra did not see Alberto again.
He approached a picture of Mr Morgant still on the wall. On the face of her late husband was full of feelings. Then he looked at the eyes of the man who had given the treasure that was very abundant.
"High your eyes like you still love me, dear," murmured Cytra in front of a photo of Mr. Morgant.
Cytra recalls the first time Morgant expressed love for her. It is spontaneous without hesitation. He was a loyal and kind husband. Unfortunately, his age is not long.
Cytra hopes, because he is still a blood relative, Alberto is not much different from Morgant. At least for the time being let the man be a friend first.
"If now you're asking me to be a boyfriend while it doesn't matter?" muttered Cytra a little annoyed at Alberto's will.
Cytra gets out of his camp and returns to where Alberto is sitting by the pool.
The sky is dark. The lights in the pool were also beautifully lit. The atmosphere in which they sit is very romantic.
"Forget what I said earlier. I accidentally made you angry. I just spontaneously said that because of the panic against Hanna" said Al rectifying what had been said a few nenits ago.
"It's okay. It doesn't matter if I have to help you in that way."
"So you want to be my girlfriend for a while?!" exclaim Alberto happy.
Cytra smiled sweetly. Trying to act like usual. There's no problem Alberto wants himself to be a girlfriend, a shadow lover or whatever his name is!
"Thank you, Cy. My heart is calm now. Hopefully there won't be any more trouble facing Hanna" Alberto said.
"But is it possible that this plan will work?" ask Cyta.
"At least I can reason strongly enough when he comes again."
"Why would he come again. Didn't you meet this morning?" cytra asked with jealousy.
"So morning I hadn't had time to sign because he hurriedly kept the letter again when you came."
"Letter? What letter did you ask to sign?" cytra asked in shock, it turned out that Hanna had gone a long way to ensnare Alberto.
"The letter of the marriage agreement and he asked for a fee from me that the amount of mercy up to one billion," explained Alberto.
"Buskey! Really wanted to rob you of him. It's not just your body that he wants. But also your treasure."
"I think so too. I'll make her a milk cow to sustain her glamorous life."
"It's your own fault why be enamored with a woman who turns out not only as an entertainer but a robber!" cytra.
Alberto seemed to regret what he had done with Hanna. Shame to be known by Cytra.
Though before Hanna appeared he had planned a new life in Indonesia. This beautiful country and its friendly people, he wants to make it the last place to live.
