One Month Later
I don't think time keeps turning fast. It's been a month since Aluna left the Smith family mansion. The beautiful mansion used to feel warm when young mistress Bryan lived there but now everything changes. There was no more warmth there, only sadness and tears.
Almost every day the great madam Smith wept over the passing of her beloved daughter-in-law. He had never imagined before that the child's household and his son-in-law would end up like this. Many times Ayunda whined to ask her husband to bring back the girl but the result was always nil. Aluna remained firm in her stance and she was unable to return to her husband's side. The wound that Bryan had incised was so deep that it was difficult for the girl to forget all the betrayals her husband had committed. Deep down, the girl still loves Bryan. His love for the man was as deep as the Indian Ocean and as high as the Himalayas because for him Bryan was the perfect man.
Bryan Smith has not set foot in the house since his wife left home. The man spent much of his days in an apartment he bought before marrying Aluna. The apartment is located in the center of the capital, has two bedrooms, one kitchen, one living room and two bathrooms. It was not very spacious when compared to the Smith family residence. The apartment he bought with his own efforts for two years working as CEO in his parents' company.
On Saturday night Sunday, the eleventh of July, the man was twenty-six years old. Eliza, aided by Gugun, plans to hold a surprise party for Bryan. They plan to throw a party at a cafe owned by Gugun. Rudy learns of the plan but he is reluctant to get involved because he does not want to get close to a scheming woman like Eliza who is trying to snatch her young master from the arms of young mistress Bryan.
During that one month Aluna lived in Rendra's elite cluster. There she was treated like a hostess by Bik Sumi, all her needs were always filled with the middle-aged lady. Rendra also took part in caring for the content of Aluna, he was on standby to fulfill the wishes of the girl. Even once, the girl was in the middle of the night cravings to buy the famous fried rice in the Bogor area while at that time Rendra was on night shift because he would perform surgery on a patient. Not until his heart disappoints the girl, he asks for the help of a male nurse to go to Bogor to buy the fried rice that the girl wants.
Aluna is deeply moved by the sacrifice and attention that Rendra gives her, but what the power of love cannot be forced. His heart, love and body have been given to Bryan, the father of the baby in the womb.
Did Bryan ever call his wife? Of course, once, twice a week the man called just to ask the condition of the girl and her two children. Bryan still gives a living to his wife because he cannot give up his responsibilities as a husband and father-to-be for the twins. However, he is still the legal husband of the girl just that the current condition of their household is being hit by a storm due to the stupidity and selfishness of Bryan.
|| Japanese Restaurant ||
"How about El, is your plan going well?" Ask Maura Eliza's personal assistant.
During a revenge attack, the girl gives Eliza full rights to act, she just watches from a distance.
They are currently enjoying lunch at a Japanese restaurant. They ordered sakura food in the form of sushi and shabu-shabu. Sushi made from rice base ingredients seasoned with vinegar typical of the country of sakura then filled with seafood such as tuna or salmon can even be mixed with eggs and fresh vegetables. Shabu-shabu is a typical Japanese food that contains thin slices of meat, tofu, mushrooms and vegetables. The meat commonly used is beef or chicken, fish or octopus meat. Shabu-shabu meat can be enjoyed with Gomadare or a typical Japanese sauce containing sesame. How to eat, all thin slices of meat dipped in a pot containing hot broth.
"So smoothly, I've managed to make a rift in the family even now that the girl has left Bryan and left with another man." Eliza enjoyed all the food with satisfaction as part of her plan went smoothly.
"I was so happy, the harmonious family built by the old man was finally destroyed."
"And now their son, the sole heir to the RA art and design company is within my grasp." An evil smile was painted on the woman's venomous mouth.
Unconsciously their conversation was overheard by a girl. He sat directly behind the woman, the position of the two turned to each other, causing Eliza not to know that the restaurant visitor who sat behind her had been part of the Smith family.
Aluna was upset, she clenched her hands, hardened her jaw, gritted her teeth and felt hot in her neck.
"Based on a cunning woman, it turns out that your goal is to approach my husband just to pit father and son!" Said the girl softly.
"Girlin!" Rossa noticed the change in attitude of her best friend.
"Guh! You shut up, it's my business."
Aluna got up from the chair and approached the woman.
"You...." Eliza said nervously.
"I'm Aluna, the girl whose husband you've taken."
"It just so happens that we meet here." Eliza tried to hide her surprise.
"Yes, it's a coincidence. So coincidentally, I heard all of your conversations!" Aluna folded her hands to her chest.
"You could have destroyed my household and Mas Bryan's but don't expect to destroy the family harmony built by daddy Reymond let alone make the blood bond between the two break."
"I'll never let that happen!"
Aluna leaves Eliza. He did not give the slightest gap for the woman to speak up. The girl snatched the bag and two practicum module books she had placed in the chair.
"We're home!" Aluna left the restaurant.
"Hey, wait!" Rossa yelling.
"Don't hurry woi!"
Aluna's steps are too long so that makes Rossa trailing far behind.
"Oh Aluna, you're not self-conscious. Get pregnant again to find trouble with the snake woman!" Rossa ran after Aluna.
"I need to get Ruddy's assistant's help right away."
"Or ask for help Rendra!
"Bodo very much, anyone I will ask for help as long as they can save my best friend from the target of the gombel wewe!"
"Lord, please take care of my best friend and two nieces." The ink in the heart.
