The End (?)

There is still no clarity about where Liliana is. The woman had completely disappeared without a trace, but it seemed that only Dimitri was confused looking for Liliana. Counted already one month and two weeks the existence of Liliana he did not know. In addition to Nabila and Liliana's parents, there is still one more person that Dimitri needs to ask the truth.

Richard.

The man was close to Liliana, and it was not impossible that the man did not know of the woman's departure. But, if he had to see Richard, he would have to meet Michelle who he didn't want to meet. Dimitri was guilty of

in the past because it hurt Michelle, she did not refuse this engagement because she wanted to give the girl time to avenge her pain first.

Maybe not everyone knows, but Michelle just wants to use Dimitri. All of that was very clear to Dimitri, there was one possibility that he had been thinking about since yesterday. Michelle could have intimidated Liliana so much that she decided to leave. Dimitri was just too desperate for the fact that Liliana left and left no trace.

Kevin entered Dimitri's room while carrying several maps. Kevin does look more mature when compared Dimitri in attitude, not too stiff, and also not as a jerk Dimitri of course.

“Still looking for Brother Liliana?”

Dimitri just shrugged his shoulders and signed the documents on the map that Kevin was carrying. “I'm not that easy to give up.”

“Why look for it now? Why must try hard like this when indirectly you make it go.”

“It looks like you found Liliana first, or you hid it?”

This month has been very tiring, he is very sleep deprived, and his food intake is also very unawakened. Dimitri looked at Kevin coldly. Kevin once liked Liliana, or maybe still likes her until now, Dimitri never really knew about it. It could also be Kevin who hid the woman from the beginning.

“Until when will you suspect me? This is Kak Lili's choice, if you really like it why not say it from the beginning? Didn't you hurt her like this, and you're just regretting it now, and then like crazy looking for her? Let him calm down with his choice, and stop being selfish. You're not the only one who

hurt here.”

Kevin immediately took the map that Dimitri had signed and went out. Kevin did like Liliana, he was always amazed by the woman. For her, Liliana is an example of a beautiful and independent career woman, do not forget her intelligence. Liliana is an ideal figure for her future lover.

Over time, Kevin begins to think of Liliana as his older sister, who always listens to all his complaints, who gives him advice, and who,  and slowly the love of men towards women began to disappear if with Liliana. He also deeply regrets his attitude to defend Dimitri, even though he knows Liliana was also hurt.

“Where are we going?”  Dimitri asked Kevin who was driving beside him. Without asking Dimitri anything, Kevin immediately dragged him out of the room he had barely lived in for a month.

“Meet someone who may know the whereabouts of Kak Liliana.”

Dimitri did not answer anything, he was busy looking at the highway he passed. He never expected more even though he had found the existence of ‘wanitanya’, he realized how much damage he caused to make good women like Liliana go. Although he could not return to what he used to be, he was very happy to know that the woman was fine. He would accept it if Liliana had found a better man.

“I don't really want to do this, I hate you so much. I did this out of concern for Kak Lili and making sure you stay alive and apologizing to Kak Lili,”.

Dimitri remained silent. He also made sure he would live until Liliana was found, no matter if later Liliana did not forgive him, it was indeed the punishment she had to accept.

The car stopped in the courtyard of a two-story house which was quite luxurious. Dimitri knew whose house he was visiting right now, a place he had been thinking about since yesterday. “Richard?” Dimitri looked at Kevin seriously.

“I know you can't deal with it alone, I will be with you with a heavy heart. They're pretty close, at least there's a little hint we can probably tell.”

Kevin immediately got out of his car and started to step foot into the house in front of him. He made an appointment to meet with Richard yesterday. He also knows what Richard and his cousin are like, but if this is the only way then it doesn't matter.

After Kevin's fifth knock on the wooden door, the door opened and featured Michelle who appeared to have dressed up neatly. Dimitri appeared behind Kevin just after Michelle opened the door.

“It looks like it's a special day until you guys come to my house by yourself,” Michelle said sarcastically.

“I want to meet your brother, I have business with him,” reply Kevin no less cynical.

“Even Dimitri came here too, I thought it was an important affair.”

Michelle opened a bigger door to let her fiance and ex-fiancee in. No more spoiled or sweet Michelle, nor cheerful. This time all that was left was the haughty and cynical Michelle.

Richard was sitting on the living room couch with his laptop. There was a very pronounced awkwardness when Richard and Dimitri looked at each other. I don't know, it just feels really awkward and they just show each other flat faces, without a smile and without anger.

“What are you doing? Finish your affairs quickly, we also have a.” affair

Michelle's cynical remarks cut off the awkward eye contact between Dimitri and Richard. Kevin immediately took the initiative to sit on the sofa, followed by Dimitri.

“What is Dimitri as cowardly as that to be accompanied by Kevin?” asked Richard coldly.

The friendship between the two men has been broken for years. No apologies were spoken from the lips of the two, but they also held each other's guilt. Dimitri really regretted what he did when he made Michelle fall in love with him, then left him alone. Formerly taste

But his ego also always forbade him to apologize to Richard or Michelle. He knew how severe the depression that tried to fight Michelle at that time. This engagement was a reply to her guilt in the past, something she had never told Liliana.

As for Richard, he should have tried to explain all their misunderstandings from the start. He understood how stubborn Dimitri was, instead of letting their misunderstanding destroy his only brother's future.

“Since the beginning I never intended to set foot into this house if it wasn't for Kevin.”'s coercion

Richard smiled. Time passed, and it seemed that Dimitri had not changed at all, he was still very selfish and also stubborn. “Your head will not help you find Liliana."

“Ah, it's still about the woman. Lucky once he was contested some guy.” Michelle chimed in on the awkward chatter of Dimitri as well as her brother.

All eyes were immediately on Michelle, from her tone of speech, Michelle was like knowing something about Liliana's departure. “How does it feel to be left behind? Does it hurt enough?” ask Michelle to Dimitri. He did not care about the other two men who were also looking at him.

“What are you causing Liliana to go?” Dimitri's face hardened hearing Michelle's question which only showed a relaxed look.

Michelle showed me her grin. “I heard you always like to conclude things alone, without hearing the explanation of the person concerned. That, right, happened to you and my brother?”

“What do you mean, Michelle? Did you make Liliana go?” Richard also chimed in.

“It looks like whatever I say won't make you believe it, right? I'm just a girl with chronic depression, you can't guess what I think.”

Michelle got up from her chair. “Michelle!” said Richard. “Sit back at your place and finish like an adult woman.”

Michelle stood in her place. She is not a strong girl, she tries to be strong by being cold to those around her. It's also hard for him, he always has insomnia that makes it difficult to sleep at night, he had to go to a psychiatrist to consult his depression problems. It's not easy being him.

With a force, Michelle sat back in her place. All this time only his brother who was always beside him, his parents only care about business compared to his son. That's why he obeyed his brother so much, for him, Richard was everything.

The emotional encounter ended after Michelle revealed all the feelings she had been feeling all along. No one ever knew how much pain the woman was enduring alone, but after everything was clear, it was unfair to just blame the girl.

“I did intentionally tie you up in this engagement, I wonder how much you love that woman. And it turns out you guys really love each other, I don't know who's stupid here, but that's the opportunity I have to avenge the pain I've experienced in the past.” Michelle said.

He loved Dimitri very much at the time, and his growing love made him hate this man more and more. He always promised himself to take the pain away one day. Michelle had no idea of Liliana's role in Dimitri, and when she found out, it was a very valuable lottery.

The three men in the room fell silent at Michelle's words. The girl went through a difficult time that not everyone understood, even her parents. “I never asked that woman to leave, maybe only you were too stupid to let her go. Indirectly my heartache has been channeled.”

Dimitri could not say anything, the awkwardness when he first met Richard after a long time had been replaced with a sense of tightness that deepened in his heart. Yes, this is his fault, his fault for being a jerk and hurting everyone he loves.

“I won't apologize, you deserve it. You have to feel the pain I felt first, I just hope you don't end up in a mental hospital like me,” Michelle said back. The girl left the three men to the stairs not far from the sofa.

Dimitri summarized his face in both hands resting on his knees. He also hopes like that, or better he languished in a mental hospital alone so that the pain is slightly reduced. So, this was how Michelle felt when she left the girl just like that. That's a fucking asshole, isn't it, he.

Kevin who had just witnessed the debate Michelle and Dimitri could not do anything. He's no expert at calming a fucked-up man like Dimitri. They don't seem to have any leads, but at least some truth is beginning to unfold. The truth that should have happened a few years ago

then.

“Michelle has already cancelled her engagement to Dimitri, and our parents are furious. We plan to return to Singapore today,” Richard said.

Dimitri did not give any reaction, only Kevin looked at Richard asking for a continuation of the man's sentence.

“I also don't know where Liliana is, she did tell me when she was going on leave, but she didn't tell me anything anymore.” Richard paused his words. “I'm sure he'll be back. Just trust him, and.send my apologies to this man. I came back here only for Michelle and her heartache.”

After staring at Dimitri for a while, he walked away from Kevin as well as Dimitri. Back there's no clue to finding Liliana.

Dimitri was quiet all the way home, and so was Kevin. He didn't seem to have to talk or ask Dimitri any more. No matter how much he hated Dimitri, he still knew how much pain the man had received.

Everything was already very clear for Dimitri, the last person he could hope to be able to give a clue was also completely unaware. The karma he received was quite cruel. Then what's this finally? The end of her story and the unspoken love? Can't he just let her find her before this story ends?

He just wanted to make sure the woman was okay, it would be great if Liliana had found a replacement. He realized how a jerk he was, he would only live out his karma, but let him see his woman from a distance.

It was his last hope, at least before his story actually ended.
