Love Claudia

Chapters 18.

Aha ha ha ha..

The comforting laughter of grief in Claudia's heart and memory had gradually succeeded in driving away the immense loss of being separated from Samuel from that day.

" I'm not this.."

" Summer is coming, and autumn is coming....And also other upcoming seasons..!"

"Huhaha...!"

Laughing together with Ray and the rest of the friends is a good remedy for Claudia to forget her sadness.

" We can all continue like this in Bukit Pelangi will certainly be very fun..Forever to me....!" Claudia.

And neither did time seem to have passed so quickly. Now Claudia has grown into a beautiful and attractive teenage girl who lives with her joy that never disappears from her charming smile.

" Clau ! Clau ! Clau !" Ray shouted one day at Bukit Pelangi.

" Ray !" Welcome Clau cheerfully to Ray who has now grown into a handsome and warm teenage boy.

" As always, definitely here "Said Ray on the train.

"Hmm, rainbow hill, until no matter how will it change. You still collect seven kinds of flowers ?" Ask Ray.

" Ahem "Jawab Clau is carefree.

" idhi ! No longer worth it ! " Said Ray.

" But girls believe in the legend until whenever !" Clau answered while jumping into the horse carriage that Ray had driven.

"Hwet.."

" If you want to go home, I'll take you . I'm going to return this horse carriage." Said Ray.

" I want to, then ! " Sahut Clau's.

" That's you, yeah..Try more.." Tegur Ray who saw how Clau was still as beautiful as before.

" Who? " Task Clau innocently.

" No..! Not so..!" Ray quickly with a blushing face.

Drek..

Drek..

Drek..

Drekks.

Drek..

They were also joking along the road leading to Count Fillan's Residence.

" Gawat, Auntie ! " Ray exclaimed anxiously at the sight of Aunt waiting for them with an angry face to see Clau in Ray's butut carriage.

Drek..

Drek..

Dre..

"Daughter ! Time to ride a butut car like that !" Tegur Auntie beaver.

" Yes.." Ray replies to Aunty while helping Clau get off.

"Ray ! You should have prevented it !" Bibi's reprimand to Ray.

" It's okay, kok.." Clau replied cheerfully not caring about Aunt's reprimand.

" Daughter of Clau, Missus..."

" Yes, he called me, didn't he ? " Task Clau while running into his house.

" Yeah ! Yes ! "

" The boy.." Aunt and Ray smiled amusedly.

"Ray ! Even though you were friends since childhood with each other, now you are a worker here ! Try to know yourself a little.." Bibi rebuked Ray who was putting a horse carriage in the stables.

" Yeah.." Ray replied politely to Auntie.

" I know, Clau..." Inner Ray.

" Clau ! Where's Claudia ?" Ask Lady Duchess Fillan to Auntie.

" Lho ? "

"The kid ran away again, huh ?" The dizzy Mistress Duschess Fillan complains about Claudia's unchanging attitude at the age of the girl who is now eighteen years old.

" I know what you're going to talk about for sure about the prom," said Clau, who turned out to be in the glass garden.

" Lynette Clau.."

" Stop that call !" Clau's rebuke to Ray.

"Lynette Clau's..Little noble girl..." That memory incised a bloodless wound for Clau.

" Mister Baskoro would stop by here sometimes, wouldn't he?" Ray asked as he passed for the girl did not feel sad anymore about the painful memory for the girl.

" It's rare now..It seems..Uncle Dino always avoids me.." Clau said grimly.

"Isn't it Clau who dodged it ? For example, by not attending the party..! You're afraid to meet her, aren't you?" Ask Ray sharply.

" Who do you mean!?" Clau asked back an angry tone to Ray who was silent and Clau was silent because he had been rude to his childhood friend.

"It is precisely..I don't want to meet you" Claudia replied softly to Ray who understood.

" no..He must have forgotten me.." Imbuh Clau is sad.

Day after day went by with every day in Count Fillan's residence always inundated with party cards for Claudia but Claudia ignored the invitation cards.

" It's been 'too far..Unaffordable anymore...Samuel must have forgotten me..." Inner Clau pilu.

Until one day a letter of invitation came to the Residence of Count Fillan which surprised everyone in the House including Lady Duchess Count Fillan.

" Mrs ! Princess Claudia ! There was a messenger..." Exclaimed the servant who received the invitation letter and handed it to Madame Duchess Fillan.

" Daughter of Claudia La Kurt Fillan..We invite you to the garden party.Hope to come." Read Mrs Duchess Fillan.

" Invitation? The White Family.." Claudia said in surprise as her mother delivered the letter to her.

" Duke White's...Samuel..Why..?" Claudia asked in her mind.

Because he could hardly believe the writing on the letter. He read it many times until the day before to attend the garden party at the White Family arrived.

"To the Honorable.The daughter of the noble family of Fillan."

Claudia reread the letter in her grasp with various feelings that could not be described or expressed at the invitation of the White Family.

" Go to Duke White's house...Gotta go there again.." Inner Clau.

Meanwhile, Bibi and everyone in her house are busy taking care of her needs to attend the garden party.

"Where's the Princess's dress? His hat too ! Repot it! "

" yes..Before the Princess leaves, prepare a little dish for her.."

" It's time for the princess to change into clothes.."

" Daughter Lord ! Where is the Princess?"

The crowd in his house made the feeling in Clau's heart and mind chaotic because He was going to meet Samuel again but He was afraid of how he would be when He would meet Samuel again this is the time when they have grown up after a long time they both separated.

"Hi, Clau ! Lho..How are you still not ready?" Ray asked who handled the best horse to deliver him to the White Family garden party.

" Your.." Mumbled Clau.

" Hmm" Reply Ray.

" It's a good thing Ray came with me too" Clau said.

" Hey, I'm just a coachman !"

" Down..Mom and Dad don't want to come..!I'm the one who needs to.."Clau.

"Haha..If you feel discouraged yourself, right? Well like it wasn't Clau" Ray comforted him.

Because there was no reply from his words, Ray looked at Clau who looked very sad at the door of the stables.

"Clau, don't you want to go to the dance, do you?" Ray approached Clau.

" actually..I would love to meet Samuel..But.."

"Nl..."

" Ray, why did Samuel invite me there, huh? "Ask Clau to Ray with both eyes so poignant.

".....Thats sage...He's gonna want to meet you, you're his friend.." Entertain Ray.

" Is that right..?" Ask Clau.

"Yes, right" Ray replied while nodding.

" We parted like that.." Claudia said on the sidelines of her cries.

" Clau's..Right I guess, you..Still like it to this day..." Inner Ray is sad because Clau still likes Samuel not himself who has always been near Claudia all this time.
