Choices

"Good morning." a greeting followed by a kiss on the cheek made Maura open her eyes. Found the face of his sister sitting on the edge of his bed.

"Goodmorning. You're not in school?"

"It's saturday, brother. Why isn't my sister awake? It's almost 10 in the morning"

Maura got up and sat on her bed. He had trouble sleeping last night. What she saw in Alan's room was very painful to her heart.

"Sister, let's have breakfast!" invite Gery to disperse Maura's daydream.

"we wash our faces first..."

When she finished, Maura followed her sister to the dining table. He really loves Gery.

The two sisters are engrossed in their food regardless of Iriana and Gerald still sitting at the dinner table.

"Done breakfast, to papa's room. There's something you want to talk to me about" Gerald said and immediately stepped into his study.

Maura snorted in annoyance. He also went to his father's office.

"What's wrong?" maura asked while sitting in front of her papa.

"Can you be more polite to me? I'm your papa"

Maura took a deep breath.he tried to be patient.

"What did you call me?" Maura said again in a more refined voice.

"Iriana and I will betroth you to the son of one of London's noblemen."

"What's? Not content to rule my life by taking me to London, now you want to arrange my soul mate? Are you God?" Maura was angry.

"Listen Maura, these people are from good families. You're gonna get more respectable men than you do with useless mobsters like Alan."

"Don't insult my friends"

"Friends said? The friend who stabbed you in the back? A friend who sleeps with your own boyfriend?"

Maura surprised. How did his dad know about last night?

"Maura, remember the message of your late mother, you must marry a good man. It's not about a handsome face or an abundant treasure, but a man who can respect you as a woman."

Maura could not hold back her tears. These are the words her mother said before she died. And his mother said that the man was like his father. Who greatly appreciate women. Maura loved her father very much. But when his father decided to remarry, Maura rebelled. All the love he had for his father seemed to be lost swallowed up with a million disappointments.

"Papa knows you hate papa so much. But trust me, everything you do is in your mama's mandate"

Maura wiped her tears violently. "I don't want to!" he said he stood up and walked away from his father.

"If you accept this match, then all of your mother's inheritance will immediately turn to your hands. You can process it yourself. As long as you also have to stop following your dance club."

Maura's steps stopped "Aren't I going to have it until I'm 23?"

"Yes. But as your guardian, I can give it to you before you turn 23."

Maura took a deep breath. "I'll think about it" he said and immediately stepped into his room.

Isn't getting her mother's legacy something she's been looking forward to all this time? With that legacy, he could live life without having to depend on his papa. And of course he will return to Indonesia.

But quitting The Crown feels heavy. He loved the friendship that was made there. But thinking about what Alan and Kelly did made Maura hate to go back there.

Talk about her mother's legacy why have to go through marriage to get it? How should I live a life with someone I don't like?

Did I accept it and then divorce her?

Tok..

The knock at the door broke Maura's daydream.

"Come in!"

The door opened and Naomi came in.

"There's a lady friend brought. Her name is Miss Lety"

"alright. I'm going down" Maura tidied her hair for a while and immediately went down to bring it.

Lety who was sitting in the living room immediately smiled looking at her friend.

"I'm sorry if I'm bothering you. Your phone is not active"

"I accidentally didn't activate it" Maura said and sat down near Lety.

"You know, the club's fucked. Alan destroyed everything there. He seems frustrated that he can't reach you. He even came here but the doorman wouldn't let him in."

"Let's. I don't care about her anymore" Maura folded her arms in front of her chest.

"Ra, I know that you're disappointed in Alan. His actions cannot be forgiven. Kelly also seemed to regret it. She cried all night."

Maura took a deep breath "I won't go back there"

"What about that match?"

"You can find my replacement"

"Ra, you're one of the main dancers. Without you, The Crown is nothing. One of us may be able to replace you but in the rest of the time, it feels impossible" Lety said as she touched Maura's shoulder.

"I'm sorry Lety. I can't."

Lety patted her friend on the shoulder "Please remember us" she said before leaving.

Maura looked at Lety's departure with a troubled heart. He himself was confused as to what to do.

"Boss, our schedule today is done. Can I go home soon?" ask Luna.

Ben, who was busy editing photos, stared at his watch "It's only 2pm"

"I knew. The thing is today at my house there's an important event and I want to go home quickly to help my mom cook."

"What important way?"

"I'll get engaged today." replied Luna timidly.

"Oh yeah? With the guy who used to drive you here?"

"Yes. We've been dating for 2 years."

"Congratulations to you. Good luck"

"I pray that the boss can also quickly get married and get married. Because for the nickname play boy like a boss, it feels very embarrassing for 1 year never dating" said Luna before leaving with a careless smile.

Ben was not angry with Luna. He knew the girl meant nothing. Luna has been his assistant for 4 years.

Ben smiled remembering Luna's words. Play boy who never dated. Uh, how's Maura doing? Is he better?

So what about the match?

Ben called his mother.

"Mom...how is the matchmaking? Successfully no?"

Alicia laughed at the end of there "I don't know Ben. It doesn't seem like the girl is interested in you. Iriana has not yet heard. Mommy's looking for another girl, isn't she? At mommy's agency there are many beautiful new models"

"Ih..mommy done. Ben can find it himself. Yea..." Ben closed the conversation. Suddenly he felt lazy to work.

I'd better go home and just sleep Ben and leave the room. He chose to walk to his apartment because it was very close. It only takes less than 10 minutes to get to her apartment.

Ben's eyes looked at the beautiful girl standing on the bank of the river.

Ah...are we really a match? Look who's standing there?

"Still confused..."

Maura snorted in annoyance. Does this guy always follow me?

He turned his head with an annoyed face "I'm really going to report you to the police"

"Hey girl.don't keep thinking that I'm following you. Did you forget that my studio was around here? And my apartment is there too. So my activities are all around here"

Maura turned her face away. The feeling is still there.

"You're beautiful...!"

Maura was silent.

"I'd love to ask my mom to propose to you"

"Throw away your wishful thinking because I've been proposed by someone else."

"Oh...is it? I'm heartbroken to hear it"

"Where is a heartbroken play boy?" Maura smiled mockingly without turning her head towards Ben.

"Play boy is also human, has a heart and feelings."

Maura chuckled "You are indeed very good at words. I'd better go"

"Don't" Ben stopped his steps, "Let me go. Enjoy your fun here this time. But before I leave, may I kiss you?"

"You..!" maura's eyes glared.

Ben laughed and immediately turned around leaving the girl. He felt happy every time he upset Maura.

*********

Gerald who was in his study with Iriana was surprised to see Maura coming in.

"What's wrong?" ask Gerald.

"I accepted this match"

They're shocked.

"Don't forget your promise to give my mother's inheritance" Maura turned her back and left.

"Is he dreaming?" ask Iriana.

"No dear. He's telling the truth"

"All right, I'll call Alicia."

*********

Ben smiled at his mother's words from the other end of the phone.
