These days continue until 1 week later. Papa suddenly asked him to attend a business meeting or maybe more precisely this is more worthy of being called a show from the rich.
Rain was forced to follow his Papa's wishes because he could not complain either. Papa has been very busy since Almaira was hospitalized.
To attend the meeting, Rain did not want to wear a party dress or a women's dress. He prefers to wear a suit and jeans like he usually does when he goes to the office. This was the most suitable outfit for Rain to use as he did not have many clothing references for events like this.
Maybe if Almira wasn't in the hospital, she could definitely give Rain some advice regarding clothing since Almira is a model from a fashion magazine.
"Miss, we're here." His chauffeur's words drew Rain's attention from the meaningless daydream.
Rain. He looked out the car window and realized that he was already in front of the entrance of the Dirgantara mansion. This is the main house of the Deon family, his future sister-in-law.
"Thank you, sir." Rain said as he got out of the car.
Standing outside, Rain noticed that there were many guests present. Some faces Rain had seen in his Papa's office and some more faces Rain had seen on television, in other words here there were many businessmen and artists of the Capital. Rain let out a light sigh, he really did not like the crowd. He took a deep breath for the umpteenth time before taking his full steps reluctantly inside.
Inside Rain tried to avoid the chatter. Sometimes he nodded lightly when greeted by his Papa acquaintance without the intention of continuing the conversation. This continued until Rain was able to escape from them all.
He went to the balcony with a glass of strawberry juice in his hand as a formality. He could not drink and he did not like the smell of alcohol, so, to trick people he just ordered strawberry juice and took it everywhere as a formality.
This is the Dirgantara mansion, the mansion that the Deon family had lived in for decades. Papa says the Deon family has powers that cannot be underestimated in the country that is the reason why Papa and Mama are eager to make a bond with the Aerospace family through Almira.
When she first heard about Deon and Almira's relationship, her family seemed very happy that they were finally able to have a bond with the powerful family. And they were even more grateful when they saw how sincere Deon loved Almira even though he had a deadly disease.
Pranks
The sound of broken glass pulled Rain from his mind. Rain was surprised, he hurriedly came to where the sound of broken glass came from. When he saw the straight back that was familiar to him was now crouching on the floor while touching his head, Rain immediately came to him without hesitation fearing something unwanted.
"Deon, are you okay?" Rain put his glass of juice on the table before coming over to Deon.
Right, the man he thought was in the hospital was actually here and was sitting crouching in front of him.
"It's me, Rain." Rain reminded Deon.
"Oh, Rain." Deon said, lowering his hand.
"Deon, let's go. I'll take you to meet Uncle Sam and Aunt Xia." Said Rain coaxing him back.
If he let Deon here, he was afraid that something would happen that was not desirable especially now that they were on the balcony instead of in the room.
"Let's go, Deon." Rain said as he helped Deon stand up from his seat.
Deon was very heavy but Rain kept trying to help him get back up.
"Rain, what are you doing here?" Deon asked puzzledly when he saw Rain's red face right beside him.
"I'm here because I'm replacing Papa's assignment to come to this meeting." Answer Rain.
"Oh," Deon frowned holding back the dizzy feeling that had re-wounded his head.
"You're drunk, I'll take you to Uncle Sam and Aunt Xia." Rain said as he accelerated their pace.
Deon shook his head in refusal. No, he sure wasn't drunk because he had never drunk alcohol before. He only drank red grape juice and the drink should not contain alcohol unless someone had put something into the drink.
"No Rain," Deon's body felt very hot.
It was as if something rebelling wanted to be let go and satisfied.
"Take me to the room." Deon's orders.
