It took a month for Alya to convince her parents. That he can live independently and take good care of himself. Alya even had to miss prom night to persuade daddy and mommy. Actually Mr. Rodrigo and Mrs Patricia have given Alya permission. Unfortunately, their decision cannot be changed, which left Alya to her brother Theo.
"Look, you have to obey Christian. Or we'll be ashamed of you Al." The mother breaks her arms, Alya, between the families to the airport to London.
"Promise momm's. Thanks for everything mom, I love you. " Alya smiled faintly. She tried so hard not to cry in front of her family.
"Remember Al, daddy will always be there for you. Even though we are far apart, do not hesitate to ask for your father's help. Ok? " Mister Rodrigo stroking Alya's warm fiery red hair, Alya nodded obediently. He had no idea what the outside world was like. He has been well taken care of by his parents.
"Al, you remind me of myself. " Said Grace, they hugged her briefly.
"You're right, brother. We need to find ourselves in any way. " Alya sees Grace is much better now. She is happy, despite a long journey in achieving dreams and at the end of it Grace chose to be a housewife.
"Don't trust the guy out there Al. I don't want you to get hurt. " Liam's warning created a sense of resentment in Alya's heart, he sneered at her sister-in-law's advice.
"Haha you forgot that Gracia also mistrusted you." Alya did not care about the atmosphere becoming awkward due to her speech. He will never see Liam again.
"Alya, take care of your attitude. " Patricia reprimands Alya who seems to be deliberately teasing Liam.
"Sorry." Alya immediately apologized with her flat face.
"Auntie Al, "Dylan, who had been waiting in his arms for Jack, stretched out his arms and asked to be embraced by Alya.
"Don't leave me, "Dylan's lips went forward withstanding the disappointment of having to part with his tant.
"Hey, you have to be Dy's strong boy. Take care of your mommy and your sister-to-be. Auntie will be sad too if you're sad. " It's hard for Alya to refrain from crying, unfortunately Alya's defense faded when dealing with Dylan.
"I promise auntie, don't forget we have to make video calls often. " Dylan's tiny hand wiped the tears on Alya's cheek. Alya nodded in taking Dylan's orders.
"Go Al, reach for your dream. Make us proud. " Uncle Jack rubbed the tip of Alya's head, Abigail could not attend because she had to rest early in her pregnancy. They both already occupied Grace's given apartment.
"Thank you uncle. Greetings to aunt Aby." Alya walked out of her family. They let go of one of the precious treasures in their lives.
"Alya, I hope you meet a good man. I want you to be happy no matter what path you choose. " Inner Grace prays for her sister.
"I'm sorry, daddy Al, you must have been left out because daddy always focused on your brother. " Mister Rodrigo removed the clear liquid that had already accumulated in his eyes. They also left the airport to resume their activities.

Exiting the arrival terminal, a curly-haired girl in a ponytail with thick, box-shaped glasses walked over to pull her large suitcase. During the trip he took the time to dye his hair to just change to a new atmosphere. If you look at her people will think she's a cute and geeky girl.
Alya circulated her gaze looking for a figure scheduled to pick her up.
"Where he is... " Alya stopped, he saw a handsome man holding a board bearing his name. Alya's smile was clearly imprinted on her face.
"Christian Oliver ? " Sapa Alya at once make sure.
"Miss Shamare ? I'm Daniel's secretary to Mr. Christian, let's get to the car." A little disappointed, Alya thought her brother Theo was picking her up straight away. Given the personality of Theo Alya thought her brother was also as good as Theo.
"All right." Daniel takes over Alya's large suitcase, a girl who is far from attractive in his eyes.
Alya sat awkwardly beside Daniel who was focused on driving. He wanted to ask their purpose but was reluctant because Daniel looked cold. On the way Daniel's phone rang, he lifted through the connected steering button.
"Yes boss, "Daniel answered Christian's call.
"I'm on the way, where should I take him? " Disturbed Daniel has not heard his boss's decision. He was given the task of picking up guests at the airport.
"Ok, we'll be there soon. " Alya could not clearly hear the conversation of the two, Daniel glanced briefly at the side and thought a little.
"Sorry, did you have a destination before? " Daniel squeaked a look at Alya's face.
"No, because I think your boss has prepared it for me. " Alya answered just like that, he spread his shoulders.
"Then the lady should follow me first, my boss will escort the lady to the lady's residence." Daniel delivered the message according to Christian.
"Whatever." Alya was so tired of being on the plane for hours, she looked at the street through the car window. His mind was ready to lay down on the bed.
After a while splitting the streets, the car entered the luxury hotel area which had a castle-like building. Alya who fell asleep immediately confirmed his position when the car engine stopped. His eyes were perfectly rounded, he looked at Daniel sharply even though fear was starting to crack.
"Come on down, lady, we're having an important meeting inside. Miss can wait in the lobby or in Mr. Oliver's room. " Daniel opened the seatbelt, without waiting for Alya's answer he had gone down and gave the key to the valley clerk.
"H wait, "Alya hastily removed her seatbelt, she quickly followed Daniel.
Alya was made bored by Daniel's wide steps. He kept following the handsome, narrow-eyed man with his broad shoulders.
Buk,,, uh,,,
Alya grimaced holding her forehead as it collided with Daniel's back. Daniel sighed in annoyance, why should he be bothered with the presence of a geeky girl in front of him.
"Here, go into the room on the eleventh floor number twelve. Wait until the meeting is over and the lady will be delivered directly by Mr. Christian. " Alya received a master key from Daniel's hand. Although hesitant he must leave because he is experiencing jetlag at this time.
"All right, thanks. " Alya replied indifferently, he rushed towards the elevator without thinking about Daniel's reaction.
"You owe me a lot Chris." Daniel muttered then walked away. He should resume their corporate meetings.
Alya looked at the astonishment of Christian's room. Luxurious, majestic, like a room in a royal palace. Blink, nuanced gold. One room is a type of condominium, where there is a living room, mini kitchen set, and two rooms like it.
"This is crazy, "His eyes sparkle when he opens the curtain of a television room that presents a view of London. The darkening day shows an orange sky.
There were some personal belongings of the man who turned out to be his brother Theo. Alya guessed this room was indeed long enough on rent.
Alya who was tired chose to lay her body on the sofa. He still has the ethics not to enter the room carelessly.
Although on the sofa, Alya was already comfortable because it was really soft . It didn't take long, he started exploring dreamland.
"Niel, did you get any information about the anonymous painter? " Christian and Daniel walked out of the room at dinnertime.
"He was as slippery as an eel, using economically troubled people to sell his paintings. " Niel also wondered why it was difficult to get information on the amateur painter.
"Where's his friend Theo? Have you taken her to her place of residence ?" Christian and Daniel enter the elevator to go up to their room.
"You're crazy Chris, he just doesn't know where to live. He said you'd give him a home. " Daniel rubbed off on her frustration.
Christian did not reply, he thought about how to take care of the child from his father's friend. Until one idea came to his mind.
"You know how much I hate my ex-boyfriend? Let her stay in my room, so that when Viona visits she'll get upset." Hearing the words of his boss and best friend Daniel even chuckled amusedly.
Christian looked at him intently not understanding. Daniel pat Christian on the shoulder, he stopped teasing him.
"Your tactics are the wrong boss. Look who's in your room. " The wrinkle on Christian's forehead appears indicating the owner does not understand.
The elevator opened, they walked towards the end of the corridor. Only with access code Christian can go directly in after Daniel. The lights had been on since Alya's presence inside.
Christian's eyes narrowed at the look of a human curled up on the sofa in front of the television. Although his clothes look branded, can not support his geeky face.
"He who? " That question escaped Christian's mouth.
"Don't you know a girl named Alya Shamare, why do you still ask? " Niel was no less confused by Christian's shock.
"Well, is he Mr Rodrigo's son? That diamond businessman, why does he look so ugly? " Chris pointed at Alya who remained in her position, Niel instead shook her head in astonishment.
"What about Chris? I thought you knew him. " Daniel and Christian argue instead, causing Alya to disturb her sleep.
"I'm hungry, "Said Alya staring at the two men who stood stiffly staring at her.
"It's troublesome. " Chris Sahut.
Alya sharpened her vision. Not because of the protest speech Chris, but the familiar face that is being looked at
"Wasn't he, shit. It turns out that shitty guy was Theodor's brother. Just watch out for you, I'll make your life a mess. " Alya was busy with her thoughts, her eyes bulging but her mouth was locked.
Chris receives a phone call and leaves Alya with Daniel. He chose to stand on the balcony of the television room.
"Yes dad, " answered Christian.
"Have you met Alya? Remember take good care of her Chris, let's just say she's your sister. " Mister Oliver wanted his first son not to throw tantrums on his girl, Mr. Rodrigo.
"Yes dad, I understand. If necessary I keep him twenty-four hours for daddy to be satisfied." After expressing his frustration Christian turned off the connection as well as his will. Mr. Oliver still wants to hear his son's voice.
"We eat below. " Take Christian with a focused look on the phone screen. He felt no need to pay attention to his less attractive interlocutor.
"Look, he's a cocky and arrogant guy. Seeing people through the physical. " Inner Alya berates Christian's personality.
"You go first Chris, I'll catch up after you clean up. " Daniel was actually very tired, he felt dizzy seeing Alya's appearance. Disturbing his views, he said.
"Hurry up, you said you were hungry. " Christian grumbled at Alya, Alya pursed his lips no less annoyed.
