Love Story: Gabrielle and Eleanor

The End of History

Clarissa stared at the people inside the building. He was strengthening his heart to open the dark veil that had been hidden from the common eye. Taking a deep breath, Clarissa slowly began to tell the beginning of the story of the history of the dress her granddaughter wore tonight.

"I used to have a story with a man who was so handsome and kind. At that time we studied at the same university. She majored in business while I was in designer. Our relationship is so colorful, there is no day without a happy laugh. One day, she was asked to come home by her parents. And from that moment on, our relationship was broken. He left me for no apparent reason and cut off all communication. I was so sad, devastated. I wondered why, but there was never an answer. Because of the free life we live, there is someone I never expected. Yes, I'm pregnant. I have a baby from him. At that time I was confused what to do. On the one hand I wanted the child to stay alive, but on the other hand I was very afraid of my parents. Until I finally decided to keep the pregnancy a secret while continuing to hope that she would come back to me!"

The room felt so quiet as Clarissa wiped away the tears. Everyone seemed to be drugged, dissolving the sadness that was in his responsibility. Even Elea who was backstage was powerless not to cry. It really hurt her heart. Levi who saw his little friend grieving was powerless not to shed tears. She attentively gave a hug while continuing to whisper words to strengthen Elea. I don't know, the fashion show that should have ended happily is now filled with tears of wounds. Surely no one would have thought that a Mistress Clarissa Wu had such a dark love story in the past. Poor thing.

"I gave birth and raised my son alone. Her name is Sandara, she is a very beautiful and kind little girl. Because something happened, I was forced to take Sandara to her real father's house and let her stay there. The days I spent were so quiet, I missed the little girl's laughter terribly. Until one day I thought of making a dress that I specially prepared to welcome his arrival when he returned to my arms. For years I waited for them to come, but I was forced to accept a very heartbreaking reality. My daughter, Sandaraku, she died after giving birth. He died after a long struggle in his life to defend my grandson. The daughter I so longed for left without saying goodbye to me. He left me!" clarissa said while crying.

Yura immediately gripped Bryan's hand very tightly as the story of her past came back down. She could feel that her husband was feeling very very depressed once the name Sandara was mentioned. Yura was not jealous, there she even felt guilty as if she was in the position of Sandara who at that time received cruel treatment from her late two-in-law.

As the atmosphere was turning blue, one of the invited guests suddenly stood up while raising one hand upwards. He seems to be curious about something.

"Sorry Mrs Wu, if you may know if your daughter is married? If so, with whom and from which family did the man come from?"

Before answering, Clarissa tried to normalize her emotions first. It feels really heavy when you want to mention that the husband of his daughter is the son of a woman who is the culprit of all the sadness that exists.

"My daughter is married to the son of the late Mr. Karim Young, Bryan Young" Clarissa replied, unable to reveal the truth. Enough like this.

"Bryan Young?"

The sounds of whispers filled the room. There are some who know that the daughter-in-law in the Young family is named Han-Yura Foster, the youngest brother of Samuel Foster, a businessman whose name is already quite large in this country. Gabrielle who heard the whispers immediately went the other way backstage. He was very worried about his wife. Mrs Clarissa's confession was enough to make Gabrielle and her family feel very shocked. Gabrielle knew that this would hurt Elea's feelings. His heart wound must have gone back to gaping when his pain was back on the crotch.

"Sandara and Bryan were married without their parents' blessing. So their marriage was never made public in the public eye. And after my daughter died, Bryan was married to Yura!" clarissa replied as she looked towards her daughter-in-law who was looking at her with a sad look.

"Wait a minute, Madam Wu. If it was not wrong that Mr. Bryan Young and Mrs Han-Yura did not have children, they only raised an orphan who came from the family of Mrs Han-Yura. Where is your grandson? Has she also died like Miss Sandara?"

Just when the guest asked like that, Gabrielle reached the backstage. Elea who saw her husband coming immediately rushed into her arms. She then looked up, looking into her husband's eyes as if saying that his heart was being torn apart. Gabrielle. She affectionately kissed Elea's tear-soaked eyes. After that Gabrielle guides Elea to sit down, asking the makeup artist who is there to fix her make-up.

"Darling, I know you must be strong. Isn't Grandma's confession something you've wanted so much all along?" gabrielle said with a smile. He tried to suppress the tightness in the chest looking at the eyes of his wife who was so helpless.

"Will this be the end of my grief, brother?" ask Elea lirih.

"Yes. And this is the beginning of your true happiness. Don't be afraid, I'm always by your side. We will always support and accompany you through this. Believe and believe that God will replace all your tears with a rain of happiness. Don't be sad anymore, will you?" gabrielle's reply strengthened her heart.

On stage, Clarissa seemed to smile happily at the guest's question. It's time. It's a good time to tell everyone that she has a precious grandchild. With a smile adorning her lips, Clarissa loudly mentioned the name of the beautiful woman who was born from her daughter's womb.

"My granddaughter is alive. Her name is Eleanor Young. She is very beautiful, and also very similar to my late daughter!" clarissa said with sparkling eyes. "My dear, come out. It's time the world knew who you really were."

The view of all the guests was directed towards the stage where they were looking forward to the emergence of the granddaughter of this famous fashion queen. They guessed each other would be as beautiful as the girl who had been alienated from the eyes of the world.

"Wooowww .. awesome. Wasn't this girl in the show? Amazing, absolutely amazing!" squealed one of the guests as soon as a woman appeared wearing a soft purple dress with her hair let loose.

Backstage, Gabrielle, Levi and Cira both smile with relief as Elea looks so strong as she steps up to her grandmother. They were worried that Elea was going to drop, but fortunately that didn't happen. Curious to see the furore unfolding before the stage, the three of them decided to get out of there. They want to see for themselves the happiness on the faces of women who have always liked to overturn the feelings of people.

"This beautiful woman is my beloved granddaughter. Come on baby, greet them all," said Clarissa as she rubbed Elea's shoulders full of affection.

"Hello, good afternoon everyone. Meet me, I'm Eleanor Young. The daughter of Mama Sandara and Bryan Young's father. Grandma Clarissa Wu's. And for the beautiful woman sitting next to my father, she was the best mother after Mama Sandara. Ms. Yura, thank you for the love you've been giving all this time. I love you."

Yura's cry broke out as her name was also mentioned by Elea. She did not expect that Elea would talk like that in front of the guests. Liona who happened to be sitting not far from there seemed to be smiling faintly. Her daughter-in-law was really proud. He was so sure that this one country would be in an uproar if he knew that Elea had married his son. Hmmm, imagining that made Liona very impatient to immediately announce to the world that Eleanor Young was the favorite daughter-in-law of the Ma family.

After that Clarissa continued to tell the history of the dress worn by Elea. Guests who heard the story kept shaking their heads in amazement at the story. For those art lovers, the story of each work they make has a deep meaning. They always thought that art was something very valuable. The same is true of all the works of Clarissa that are exhibited today. Especially the soft purple dress that Elea wears. About a longing that is not conveyed to the world. And finally, the summer fashion show closed with guests clapping loudly once they knew that Elea would be the successor of any Clarissa Wu-owned business. The blood of art that is so thick in a Lady Wu will be passed on to her only grandchild who is now studying the science of designers at one of the top universities.

Ma, are you happy? Your name will be remembered by everyone from now on. I happy.
