One Million Dollar Male Charm
Orland's Big Mistake



Cristin rushed into the room, her feelings chaotic. He didn't even know why he hit Orland.


Disappointment and anger were mixed in his heart. He knew he shouldn't have hit Orland but when he saw the man, he somehow wanted to do it. Maybe it was like a disappointed expression because the man had not contacted her at all.


He really hated himself, even he was like a child. Perhaps it was because of his attitude that he was toyed with by Johan and never loved sincerely.


Cristin dropped himself on the bed. Why is he suddenly such an asshole? It seemed that the character of the young and selfish miss was still attached to her.


Out there, his mother asks Orland to go inside. I don't know what happened, they both don't understand. Cristin's mother wasn't even feeling well, Orland had been waiting since then and was worried about her condition but it was just a slap she got.


"Please wait here, I'll talk to her for a minute and forgive my daughter's actions" Mariana said.


"It's okay, Madam. Maybe I was wrong" Orland said.


Mariana smiled, patient young man. He desperately wished Cristin would not do that again even though Orland was really worried about him.


Mariana stepped towards her daughter's room. The door opened, Mariana went inside and approached her daughter who was seen sitting pensively by the side of the bed. Mariana shook her head, I don't know what happened to her daughter but she hoped Cristin would apologize to Orland.


"What are you doing, honey? why did you hit him?" mariana asked while sitting on Cristin's side.


"Now I know, Mom," Cristin said with a bitter smile.


"What do you know?"


"Now I know why Johan used me. It turns out I'm just a selfish stupid woman!" without Cristin wanting, her tears flowed.


"Why are you saying that, honey? You're just fucking meeting him!"


"I'm like that, Mom. You can see it for yourself. No need to defend me, I know what I did wrong."


"There's no need to say that," Mariana hugged her daughter tightly.


"You're like this because your heart aches with Johan and your sense of trust in men no longer exist. Don't blame yourself, you're just unlucky but you should know not all men are like him. Mommy's been saying that to you so many times, but why don't you get it too?"


"I don't want any more heartache, Mom. I don't want to get hurt anymore either. I was afraid to fall in love, I tried to fortify my heart but without me noticing, it all started to slowly collapse. I'm afraid of experiencing betrayal for the second time let alone I can't escape Johan!"


"Mommy knows what you're worried about, Cristin. Mommy knows very well but you saw the guy out there, he was waiting for you. He's worried about you, even if he wants to go look for you, even if he doesn't know which movie you're watching. He doesn't even blame you for hitting him and feels that if you do it because he's wrong. Do you feel like Johan? What's he been doing all this time like Johan did? Johan used you for money. Then, did he also approach you because of the money? Think of Mommy's advice, don't regret it later. You do want to live alone but believe me, being alone is not fun," Mariana hope with her advice this time her daughter really wants to change.


Chistin remained silent, thinking of his mother's advice. Mariana rubbed her daughter's shoulder, it seemed like Cristin needed some time.


"Think carefully" said Mariana as she moved.


Mariana came out of the room, leaving Cristin who was still silent earlier. Mariana approached Orland who was still waiting in the living room.


Orland moved to see his arrival, it seemed that Cristin did not want to go out and meet him. Perhaps Cristin was angry that he had not contacted her these few days.


"How, Madam??" ask Orland.


"Sorry, he's a little unstable. Come tomorrow, if you're willing," said Mariana.


"All right, I'll come back tomorrow. Sorry to make it uncomfortable" Orland said. I don't want him to come back tomorrow.


Mariana escorted Orland out, she was really unwell towards the young man but she couldn't force either. Orland stepped towards the car, seemingly unwillingly he had to go out to dinner by himself.


After dropping off Orland, Mariana stepped into the kitchen because she wanted to make a warm drink for her daughter but suddenly Cristin came out of her room and ran towards the living room.


"Cristin," Mariana approached her daughter in a hurry.


"Where's Orland, Mom?" christin asked because Orland was gone.


"Just left, just now" Mariana looked astonished that her daughter looked panicked.


"Oh, no!" Cristin immediately ran towards the exit while shouting, "Thank you for Mommy's advice!"


Mariana smiled, finally coming to her senses as well whereas Cristin ran out quickly. Hopefully it's not too late.


Orland had already started his car engine, he was going to the restaurant to enjoy his dinner. The car was already on the run, but the scream of someone calling his name sounded faint.


Orland stopped his car, the windshield was lowered and after that he looked back where Cristin was running towards him.


"Wait .. oh God, my legs hurt!" Cristin shouted while cursing because he forgot to wear footwear due to the rush.


Orland smiled and got out of the car. Cristin was still running while grumbling.


"Wait," asked. Cristin's run came to a halt, he had to take a breath first.


"Oh, God. I need a sport!!" said it.


"Wanna exercise with me?" ask Orland while approaching him.


"No way!!" cry Cristin in a fierce tone.


"So?" orland's steps stopped. He wanted to see why Cristin was after him and stopped himself.


"Damn!" christin said, and after that he ran back to Orland and hugged him.


Orland was surprised, what was going on? But yeah, women are hard to understand.


"Sorry to have hit you" Cristin said.


"So you want to apologize?"


"I know I was wrong, sorry."


"Why, Cristin? Have I made a mistake?" ask Orland again.


"Yes, you've made a big mistake with me!"


"Say, I'll make it up to you" Orland said. Both of his hands were already coiled around Cristin's body.


"You've messed with my heart, don't you know? I hate the way I've been!!"


Orland smiled, it seemed like the effort he put in had already paid off and he was very happy about it.


"That's why you slapped me?" now Cristin's body is in his trunk so that his feet do not touch the asphalt again.


"I'm sorry about that."


"I'm sorry, miss."


"How?"


"Follow me dinner, then I'll forgive" Orland replied.


"Alright," Cristin hugged him tightly.


"One more, Miss."


"What else??" ask Cristin.


"You should kiss me, now!"


"Basic, always looking for opportunities in narrowness!!"


"Looks like you already know me!"


"It sucks!!" Cristin hit him on the shoulder but he kept doing what Orland had done. Cristin brought the lips closer together. Caring for the devil with the fear he feels.


From behind the window, Mariana saw them kissing while smiling, "Oh... Oh, young man," he said. The curtains closed and after that, Mariana stepped away.


At least her daughter made the right decision to pursue Orland because she was not sure Orland would come back again tomorrow. It could have been that the man changed his mind, if until that happened, it could have been that Cristin would regret it later.
