PRISONERS END IN LOVE

Pursuing the Love of Grace

Tok tok tok tok

" Rena, are you asleep?" Rivaldi's voice and a knock on the door were heard from outside the guest room occupied by Grace. Making Grace who was communicating via chat with Rizal immediately ended her chat with Rizal. Even though he knew, Rizal would definitely get angry when he mentioned if Rivaldi called him. He was sure that Rizal would definitely get even more jealous reading his message earlier.

" Rena, you're going to sleep, okay?" rivaldi asked as Grace opened the room door.

" No, really. Why the hell?" garce asked his forehead.

" If you don't want to sleep yet, how about we chat on the balcony in the living room?" asked Rivaldi to invite Grace to have a light conversation, it looks like Rivaldi does not want to waste the opportunity to talk to Grace, mumpung woman was at her parents' house.

" Don't you have to go back to Jakarta tomorrow morning, Aldi?" ask Grace.

" I'm used to sleeping a little late." Rivaldi chuckled at his bad habit. He then walked towards the balcony in front of the family room on the top floor which was next to the guest room occupied by Grace.

" Sleeping too late is not good for health, you know. You better get married soon, Aldi. For someone to notice you including your sleeping hours." Grace stepped up to follow Rivaldi and sat down on the chair that was on the balcony terrace.

" You were too excited to tell me to find a companion. Do you want to match me up with someone?" Rivaldi gave a smile hearing Grace ask him to quickly find a mate.

" Smatching someone? No, I don't have any friends who meet the criteria you want" Grace said.

" What if you just?" Rivaldi teases Grace.

" Huhh??" At once Grace was stunned to hear Rivaldi's words.

" It's normal for his face, don't be surprised like that. I'm just kidding." Seeing Grace surprised by his words, Rivaldi immediately gave a clarification.

" Thank God ..." Grace breathed a sigh of relief.

Rivaldi watched Grace who looked relieved to make herself sigh.

" What did Mama say?" Rivaldi was curious about what Arina and Grace were talking about when she talked to her Papa earlier.

" Hmmm, your mother wishes that I would be her daughter-in-law. I don't know which child?" Grace chuckled softly answering Rivaldi's question.

" Which do you want?" Rivaldi responded to Grace's joke.

" Which is closer to my age is your sister?" ask Grace.

" Oh yeah, how old are you right now?" Rivaldi forgot Grace ever mentioned her age.

" Twenty years."

" So young, my youngest brother twenty-one years. But, it seems like she is not ready to get married yet. Why not just with her sister?"

" How old is the other brother?" Grace calls Rivaldi's oldest sister.

" Milk ..." Rivaldi laughed at Grace's reply, thinking that the older sister he was referring to was his oldest.

" Are you really not interested in their eldest brother?" Rivaldi was curious as to whether Grace was really not interested in him. When many women race after him, Grace was impressed indifferent, as if not interested in his charm

Grace turned towards Rivaldi. Of course from the beginning he knew who Rivaldi meant.

" His eldest brother is a little hard to fall in love with, right? And I'm lazy to chase a guy like that" he said lightly.

Rivaldi put on a smile back. She does feel Grace's differences with most women she's met. And that's what makes Grace so eye-catching.

" What age are you ready to get married?" ask Rivaldi seriously.

" I don't know yet. Didn't you say I was young? So I haven't thought about when I'll get married!?" grace Sahut.

" If there's a man who wants to ask you to get married, what does it mean that you're going to reject that man?" Rivaldi wanted to know Grace's answer.

" I want to enjoy my youth. But, if there really is a man who really wants me and loves me very much. I don't think there's any harm in me changing my intention to get married at a fairly mature age" Grace said. What is said does not match what is in his heart. He deliberately did so in order for Rivaldi to be even more impressed with him. Because honestly he himself did not want to be married at a young age.

" I want to meet with Mr. Satria to discuss the issue of our company cooperation. When are you going to meet me with your father?" ask Rivaldi suddenly.

Grace gasps when Rivaldi mentions Satria. It was unthinkable for him if Rivaldi would allude to Satria.

" Hmmm, do you want to meet my Papa? Want to talk about business or want to propose?" Grace tries to cover up her nervousness by throwing questions at Rivaldi.

Rivaldi laughed at Grace's question. Maybe for some people the question Grace was impressed too confident. But, to her it made Grace even more adorable in her eyes. He was even more curious about Grace.

" Huhh? Seriously you want to propose to me?!" Garce put on a surprised face by cupping both palms on her cheeks, making Rivaldi again chuckle with Grace's manner.

" You're teasing me, aren't you!?" Grace pinched her lips.

" You angry? What does it mean you really want me to apply?" For some reason, Rivaldi so enjoyed his casual chat with Grace. So he joked with the beautiful woman next to him.

" Any not really." Grace turned her gaze while raising her shoulders. " Already, ah! Don't talk about it anymore." Grace did not want to continue discussing the matter because she did not want Rivaldi to continue asking him to be reunited with Satria.

While from behind the balcony door, Arina looks smiling at Rivaldi's familiarity with Garce. He really raised his hopes that Grace could be a match for his stepson.

" It's great to see Aldi laughing so happily. O Allah, if Rena is Aldi's soul mate, please bring them closer always." She's Arina. Although Rivaldi was not her biological son, Arina loved her husband's first child like her own.

***

In his room Rizal was made to mess with the contents of the message sent by Grace. Imagining Grace tonight with Rivaldi makes her jealousy even more explosive.

" The al! I shouldn't have lured him to a sneaky guy like Rivaldi." Rizal seemed to regret the strategic mistake he had made.

" Are they having fun tonight?" Given Grace who is very aggressive, Rizal imagined if Grace and Rivaldi were making out there.

" Amarrrgghh ...!!" Rizal ruffled his hair. He then took the Coat and walked out of his room to look for a fresh breeze as his heart was currently burning.

Not long after he was on the street in Jakarta driving his car. I don't know where to go this time.

Ddrrtt

Rizal picks up his phone and finds Bondan's name contacting him at this time. He then put earphones in his ear to lift the incoming call.

" Hello, how's it going, Dan?" ask Rizal. Rizal told Bondan about Arina. And he was waiting for the next order from Erlangga.

" Accusingly Mr. Erlangga, Arina's mother seemed to be the true caretaker of Mr. Erlangga first. Zal, can Grace take Arina's mother out of Mr Nugraha's family home? Because Mr. Erlangga wants to meet him directly." Bagas explained what Erlangga wanted.

" Mister Erlangga wants to see Arina's mother?"

" Yes, to confirm the truth about Ms. Arina is Mr. Erlangga's former nanny. And Mr Erlangga also wants to know the whereabouts of Mother Arina's daughter? Because according to the information you convey, if the daughter of Arina's mother is all men."

" God, Zal. Later I will arrange for Grace to take Arina's mother out of her house" said Rizal.

Tin

Rizal honked his horn because there was a car from the opposite direction hit the traffic light even though the red light was on when he wanted to turn to the right.

" Are you outside, Zal?" bondan asks because he hears Rizal honking.

" I'm on the way, Dan. Look for a breath of fresh air," replied Rizal.

" Many thoughts, you?" ask Bondan chuckles. " Is it because of that woman?" Bondan seemed to be able to guess what Rizal was thinking.

Rizal responded to Bondan's question with a snort of his breath.

" Hahaha, a Rizal can be made upset by a child .. hahaha ..." Bondan laughed loudly in response to what was happening to his friend. " Have you not done what I suggested, Zal?" tanyanya.

" It's not easy to give understanding to my daughter, Dan. While many other men were starting to approach him," complained Rizal finally openly saying what was the burden of his mind.

" You'd lose her if your daughter's blessing hadn't come, would you?"

" My competition isn't kidding, Dan. They are young, handsome and also businessmen." Rizal was frustrated.

" Hey, those aren't guarantees, Zal. And it's a hard task for you to prove that you're more deserving of her choice." As a friend, Bondan tries to advise Rizal so that Rizal is not discouraged from pursuing his love for Grace.
