After much thought and consideration, Renjani decided to meet her brother directly to his private apartment. Not without reason, Renjani is just feeling tired with all the indifference from Kak Ana about matchmaking problems. Didn't all of this happen because of the plans made by her brother? Why now it's like he's trying to wash his hands and doesn't want to take responsibility.
In a slightly nervous state, Renjani who is now standing right in front of the door of his apartment from the brother did not hesitate to ring the bell available. There have been about three times the bell rang, Renjani still has not found any signs the door will be opened. Now the girl was made to wonder about the planned departure of the brother to Paris. Although a little forgetful to remember, Renjani can be very sure that her brother is still in there.
As if he did not want to stop and still believe what he believed, Renjani continued to ring the bell and always get the same results. The door remained closed and there was no answer or reply from inside. Until in the end, a woman who may be the same age as Kak Ana, came to Renjani.
"Sorry! But who are you? Why is it on Anastasia's doorstep?" Ask the woman who also still feels foreign to the figure of Renjani.
"I'm his sister. Just wanted to see Ana to discuss something important," Renjani said, sounding unhesitating to introduce herself.
"Did Ana have a sister? Over the years of working with her, I had absolutely no idea she had a sister" she said, also shocked by what had just come out of Renjani's mouth.
Renjani does not know about the woman who is now talking to him, but clearly Renjani is very confident that he can get an answer about the existence of Kak Ana from the woman. If seen and guessed, maybe he was one of the staff who worked with his brother?
"Do you know where Ana is now?" Ask Renjani without any meaningful pleasantries.
With a slightly strange look, the woman began to notice Renjani from toe to head. What is he trying to find out? Isn't Renjani's introduction clear enough? Or does the woman really not believe that Renjani is the sister of a famous model named Anastasia?
"If you were really her sister, you should know about Anastasia's whereabouts right now. Instead of asking me," offended the woman who was natural to feel strange.
I do not intend to speak without providing clear evidence. Renjani also began to take out his personal phone which had been in a small sling bag, then did not hesitate to show evidence of chat to the woman. Renjani is very hopeful that after doing this, she can get an answer about the whereabouts of her brother.
"If it were like this, would you really believe it?" Tanya Renjani who managed to prove herself as the sister of a famous model.
"This is indeed Anastasia's personal number, but it's a little strange that her own sister doesn't know about her brother's whereabouts" said the woman, who refused to stop feeling suspicious.
"The last message I sent him has not been read by him" said Renjani, who can still defend himself.
Even though the woman still had a suspicious and uncertain feeling, but still he decided to tell Renjani about the whereabouts of Anastasia who is now at the airport and just waiting for departure to Paris. Maybe if Renjani follows, she will not be able to meet with her brother. Is Anastasia now really leaving her sister stuck in some kind of trouble alone?
"You can only see him, if you also buy a flight ticket to Paris," said the woman and strangely sounded right.
"Then, then..." Renjani clasped the woman's wrist so tightly, as if she had not given her permission to leave.
"...Do you know when Kak Ana will return to Indonesia? I heard it's only been a month or two?" Renjani asked so eager to get a definitive answer.
"Now I doubt that you are his sister. Were you not told that your brother intended to stay in Paris? He has signed a contract with one of the famous brands that are there," the woman said.
Feeling being played with, Renjani looks so reluctant to accept the words that have just come out of the woman's mouth. A frustrated laughter sounded clearly made by Renjani. Now regrets began to greet him. Why did he have to agree to help his brother, if he was finally left like this?
Renjani trusts her sister too much. Even all the talk that he said would not hurt, it is believed Renjani. Why is Ana so brave like this? Renjani knows that she did not accept this match, but what is necessary is to make her sister who bears everything. Yes, even though Renjani is not a biological sister, but still everything done by Kak Ana is not true.
With a feeling of disappointment mixed with confusion, Renjani began to step away leaving the front door of the apartment owned by her brother. Because his mind is only trying to think of a way out and a solution, Renjani did not even realize that he was now in front of the lobby of this apartment building. Because of lack of concentration, Renjani who did not pay attention to his steps was also accidentally almost hit by a car that crossed the front door of the main lobby of the apartment building. Fortunately, there was a man who was kind enough to help him.
"If you want to kill yourself, don't stay here. It will affect the price of the apartment" said the man who somehow sounded so familiar across his ears.
When Renjani turned to the man who had helped not get hit by a car, his pupils began to enlarge. Why was the girl surprised? Who is the man who is in front of him now?
"Mr Ardhi," said Renjani, not expecting to see the man here.
When he saw his figure, Renjani began to be made to wonder. He was just wondering why he could meet the figure of Ardhi here? Even Renjani also suspected that the man was following her. How could there be a coincidence that was too fitting like this?
"What are you doing here? Mr. Ardhi is not following me, is he?" Accuse the strange Renjani even managed to bring up a wide laugh from the man.
"Your level of confidence turns out to be good as well" said Ardhi, who blamed all the accusations from the girl.
Do not know how this coincidence happened, but what is clear is that Ardhi's existence in this apartment building is not solely to follow Renjani. Please note that Ardhi will not use his time for anything less useful. Rather than wasting time on such a thing, it would be much better if Ardhi met clients and agreed to business cooperation.
"Don't I still have two more days to decide?" Renjani's strange question even reminded Ardhi about it.
"Yes I know and remember."
"Then? Why are you following me? Is it just because you want to urge me to make a decision faster?" Asked Renjani did not forget to enter the wrong accusation.
Ardhi really could not believe that the girl who looked so innocent and naive actually had such a high level of confidence. What was on his mind when he charged about it?
"I'm here to meet a client" said Ardhi, who can't be trusted.
"In the apartment?"
Not yet had time for Ardhi to answer, suddenly Mr. Timothy, as the owner of the entire apartment building came to the man and immediately gave a warm greeting. Renjani who is still in his place also slowly began to feel that the accusations he gave were all wrong. The purpose of Ardhi's existence in this apartment building is not because it is following him. Has Renjani forgotten who the man really is? He was not a random person who could waste his time on useless things.
Because the shame began to bully him, Renjani decided to leave his place immediately, but unfortunately Ardhi who knew also moved quickly to hold the girl's hand. The grip felt so tight, as if the man had given him no permission to leave.
"Where are you going?" Tanya Ardhi wanted to know.
"Have you met your sister?" Ask Ardhi who apparently knows about the purpose of Renjani's existence here.
"How did you know? If it's like this I'm sure that you are following me, "Renjani is endless to make such accusations to Ardhi. Does he have no shame at all?
"You have no interest other than meeting your brother. I know that Anastasia did live in this apartment building," said Ardhi who even made Renjani look like someone stupidest.
Unable to bear all the shame that began to eat away at him, Renjani began to try to release the hand made by Ardhi. Because of the difference in strength that is far away, Renjani really difficult to be able to escape from the grasp of it.
"Can you let go of my hand, can't you?" Pinta Renjani who was not directly obeyed by the man.
"Why should I let go? Where are you going?" Tanya Ardhi was reluctant to make the girl leave.
"You're home. Mom and Dad are waiting."
Hearing what Renjani just said, able to make the man give orders to the secretary — Nindi. I don't know what he wants to do, but if you see Ardhi intends to leave this work to Nindi.
"Please take care of this apartment building! I entrust everything to you, Nindi," Ardhi's command made Mr. Timothy feel a little disappointed.
"Will Mr Ardhi leave?"
"I'm sorry, but I remember having to do something important. For buying and selling approval, you can talk to Nindi," said Ardhi who then stepped foot along with Renjani.
...•••...
Forced carried like this by the man, able to make Renjani a little confused what to do. Since then, there was no sound of protest coming out of the girl's tiny mouth. If you see it is true in fact, Renjani has been too resigned, just come with the man who is still holding his hand tightly.
"Master?" Renjani called out in a faint voice, yet it could still be heard by Ardhi.
"I think the call om is not too bad, rather than having to listen to you call me with Mister," said Ardhi who apparently did not like the way Renjani called him.
"What's wrong?" Ardhi continued with a short question.
"Why was I invited here? I came without any vehicle" said Renjani, puzzled to find out that she was already in the car park.
"Ah, I just want to take you home" said Ardhi and immediately surprised the girl.
"No need for Sir. I can go home by myself. Public vehicles are also still operating at this hour," said Renjani rejected the desire of the man.
"How can I get a girl to come home alone at this hour," Ardhi said while looking at the watch that has now been shown at exactly ten in the evening.
"B-but I can seriously go home alone. Ten o'clock is still not too vulnerable. Besides, my house is also not too far from the access of the highway and probably there are still many people who wake up," Renjani still insisted on rejecting the invitation from the man. Not without reason, it's just that Renjani felt no need to trouble Ardhi.
Without saying much or persuading, Ardhi unilaterally opened his car door and asked Renjani to enter immediately. The sharp eye gaze made by Ardhi, became the main reason for Renjani reluctant to give rejection again. It seems that from now on, Renjani should be a little careful if he is in a public place. Do not let him engage in a meeting with a man named Ardhi. Something like this can happen again.
Feeling that he could not give any more rejection, Renjani began to step her foot into the car. Ardhi who was still in his place did not hesitate to help the girl wear a seatbelt. Honestly, it should not be for Ardhi to do something that is quite excessive like this. Without any assistance, Renjani can himself wear a seatbelt.
"Only for safety. I don't want you to get hurt" Ardhi said in a masculine voice.
Without saying much more, Ardhi who had confirmed the girl was in the car started running towards the driver's place. Because of Ardhi's sudden behavior to help him attach the seat belt, Renjani's heartbeat began to feel a fairly unnatural pounding. Really, Renjani never felt like this other than with David — a man who until now may still be the owner of his heart.
