*It's almost 15:00, I have to prepare before Keysa comes* inner Aditya
Aditya tidied his shirt in front of the mirror
*I'm not sure if I should continue to force myself to continue like this * inner Aditya
Aditya is just daydreaming in front of the glass and busy with his own thoughts. A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door.
Geck...Geck...Geck...
Aditya walked towards the door and opened the door of his house.
"Yon?"
"I stopped by to rest Dit, wih..where you're going to be very neat"
"You think my house is lodging?"
Dion did not answer Aditya's words and went straight into Aditya's house.
Dion splashed his body on Aditya's living room couch, Aditya just looked at his friend and sat down to check his phone.
Dion stared at the anxious looking Aditya and just swiped his phone screen.
"Stop playing with your phone, if you're not sure what you're going through stop. Every action has consequences, how you deal with it." Said Dion
Aditya stared at Dion and turned off his phone screen.
Aditya understands Dion's intentions, but there is no other choice but to try to accept the situation.
Trings...
Aditya's phone sounded a sign of an incoming message
(Khatsing)
_ _ _ _ _ _
"Gue's in front"
_ _ _ _ _ _
Aditya just stared at the screen of his phone silently without reacting anything.
Aditya seemed to think and get up from his seat
"I'm going first"
Aditya's words were answered with a nod by Dion
Aditya walks to Keysa thinking about Dion's words, Aditya's heart begins to worry.
When he approached Keysa's car, Aditya immediately turned his body and remained silent. His heart was so doubtful, yet he could not escape from this state.
*What do I do I have to do? I can't embarrass Mr. Gunawan* inner Aditya
Keysa who saw Aditya turned around and did not get in his car, got out of the car and approached Aditya
"What's wrong? You changed your mind?"
Aditya was surprised to hear Keysa's words as if he could read his mind.
"No, I guess my phone's lagging behind."
Aditya turned around, walking in the footsteps of Keysa who entered the car.
On the way they were just silent without anyone willing to open up a chat.
- Butik Parveen's
Aditya and Keysa enter his papa's recommendation boutique, Aditya's expressionless flat countenance inversely proportional to Keysa who is looking forward to this day.
"Good afternoon, on behalf of Mr Gunawan?" Said a boutique waiter
"Yes right, I'm her daughter" Keysa replied
"Let me take it"
Keysa and Aditya follow the boutique waiter's steps into the VVIP room where they will choose a dress and suit design for their engagement day.
"While waiting for the owner of this boutique to come, you can see in advance the design of the dress." (Give a book containing design drawings)
Keysa looked at some clothing designs that were suitable for his body. Aditya just keeps quiet and sets his sights on the glass that leads to the outside of the boutique.
"Is this suitable for me?"
Aditya turned his gaze to the book Keysa was holding.
"Yes fits"
Keysa was pleased with what Aditya said
The door of the room opened, a woman entered with some files in her hand, Keysa and Aditya's gaze directed at the woman
*was she not the woman who was with Ivan at the time? So he's the owner of this boutique* Inner Keysa
*This woman? What is this a coincidence* inner Aditya
The woman looked at Aditya and Keysa in turn
*Are they not friends of Ivan? And that guy?* inner Laura
Laura regained her senses from her daydream, and sat down on the sofa as fast as Aditya.
"Good afternoon, Miss Gunawan. I'm glad you came here." Said the Woman
"I'm also happy to meet you." Keysa
"Is there a design that matches the lady? Or does anyone want a miss request?"
"I took this design, my girlfriend loved it. But, I asked that this part (While pointing towards the waist) be given an elegant touch"
"What color do you want to keep using this color or change it?"
"I don't want to change the color"
"Well, after this we take measurements. For your partner?"
Keysa looked at Aditya who was just silent without any interest in the chatter about her dress.
*It looks like this guy didn't like the moment that much, but why? My heart also felt sore to see it like this* Laura's inner self
"I would also choose a design for him"
"I want a simple but luxurious suit design, and more compatible with my own dress" Keysa continued
"Alright, please go over there to start the measurement" Laura said as she pointed her hand at her assistant
They were in a boutique for 1 hour
"I go home alone, miss go home with Mr. Iwan" said Aditya (Opening the door to Reyna)
"Where are you going?"
"There's something I need to buy"
Keysa confirms Aditya's words and gets into the car, Aditya stares at Keysa's car walking away from him.
*Do I have to make sure of everything now?*
Aditya turned his back and was about to walk into the boutique, but his steps stopped to see Laura looking at him and walking towards him.
"Do you have time? can we talk for a minute?" Ask Laura
"Please"
Aditya follows Laura's steps into her private room, many employees including Laura's personal assistant looking towards Laura and Aditya
"Isn't Laura's mom and that guy very similar" said one of the servants
"She's like a brother and sister"
"But isn't Laura's mother the only child of the Candra family? Even after the great master remarried reportedly not blessed with offspring"
"Hutss, that's it"
Aditya saw that the boutique waiters were staring at him.
Aditya enters Laura's private room, Laura invites Aditya to sit down and look at Aditya deeply.
*Who is actually this man in front of me, why do I feel so comfortable and calm when I see him*inner Laura
"What do you want to say to me?"
Laura turned her face away and smiled faintly, Aditya was so aware with Laura's gaze that she asked.
"Are you Ivan's girlfriend?" Ask Laura
"Yes"
"May I ask you for help in meeting me with her lover? I have something to say, but please never tell Ivan what I mean"
*Why the look on this woman's face is a little frightened, actually what happened* inner Aditya
"I'll help you, but I'd like to ask. What is your relationship with Ivan?"
Laura is surprised to hear Aditya question, she hesitates to tell Aditya.
Aditya waited for a response from Laura, his eyes looking at Laura's eyes that looked agitated and doubtful
"You don't have to worry, I'll keep your secret"
Aditya's warm words and smile made Laura calm and confident in him.
*Why can I speak kindly and smile warmly at him, what's wrong with me?* inner Aditya
Laura tells about her relationship with Ivan to Aditya, at first glance Aditya's face turns to be disappointed and sad.
*What is this? Why does my heart ache to hear what he says* the inner Aditya
"I hope you will keep my secret" Laura said (Holding Aditya's hand hopefully)
Aditya is surprised by Laura's attitude, but her body cannot resist. Aditya who usually brushed when his hand was held but now just silent.
"I will keep your secret" Aditya replied (Warm smile)
Aditya pulls out his phone and searches for Reyna's number.

(Call disconnected)
Aditya turns off his call and puts his phone on the table
*With his own friend he was sniffy and stiff, but it is clear from the response he was not so to me*inner Laura
"So soon he'll be here"
Laura presses the phone at her front desk and has her assistant wait for Reyna's arrival and takes her to Laura's private room.
"Thank you, oh, what's your name?"
"I'm Aditya, your name?"
"I'm Laura, have you known Ivan and his girlfriend for a long time?"
"Morning"
Laura smiled happily to see Aditya who was willing to help her and keep her secret.
- 15 minutes later
"Excuse me"
"Look in" Laura said
"Adi, you want me to do this..."
Reyna's speech was interrupted when she looked in front of Aditya there was Laura.
Reyna is surprised and turns her body intending to go home, but her hand is pulled by Aditya.
"Don't go and sit down" Aditya said
"Di, I thought you understood how I felt all along. But why did you even meet me with her."
"Sit down!"
Aditya told Reyna with a slightly elevated tone to make Reyna surprised and reflexes immediately sat next to Aditya.
"This lady wants to explain to you about her relationship with Ivan, shut up and listen." Aditya
Reyna just kept quiet and lowered her head, Laura smilingly looked at Reyna's cute demeanor.
"Hi Reyna, my name is Laura. Nice to meet you, I just wanted to explain my relationship with Ivan. I don't have a special relationship with Ivan, even he's just a friend to me. She was the one who delivered me at the pregnancy check-up that time, and the first day we met you misunderstood. My lover left me, I approached Ivan only to ask for his help no more. I hope you understand my situation" Laura explained
*He is very hard to hide the truth, I hope this problem is quickly resolved without harming anyone* inner Aditya
"I'm sorry I was prejudiced against you" Reyna said
"I'm sorry to make your relationship with Ivan this way"
Reyna smiled at Laura, relieved to hear Laura's explanation of Ivan
"It looks like you're older than me, can I call you big brother?" Ask Reyna
"That's all" Laura said
"O yes Aditya, can I have your phone number?
Aditya nodded his head and gave his number to Laura.
Reyna watched Aditya and Laura's faces in turn, not only did Laura's servant and assistant think they were very similar but Reyna felt it too.
*The faces of Aditya and Laura look very similar, I just realized it now. Are they brothers?* inner Reyna
After a long chat Aditya and Reyna say goodbye to retreat.
Laura sees Aditya and Reyna walking out of her room, her heart at ease after telling Aditya everything.
*Maybe now my sister will be the same age as Aditya, I have to find where my mom and grandma*inner Laura
in front of the shop
"In, why do you know Laura's sister?" Ask Reyna
"He's the designer who helped Keysa prepare the engagement dress"
Aditya's words make Reyna surprised, even she does not know if Aditya will be engaged in the near future.
"Are you serious?"
Reyna's question was answered nod by Aditya.
Reyna invites Aditya to buy food first before going home, thanks to Aditya she finds out who the woman is with Ivan and makes a good start to her relationship.
***
Keysa walked to his papa's office and approached Gunawan, who was busy working on the office files.
"Pa, thank you for helping me make Aditya's dapetin" said Keysa(While hugging his papa)
"Dear together, I'm sure Aditya's a good boy for you"
***
Aditya walks into the house and sees Dion sleeping on the sofa.
Aditya put two packs of food and his cell phone on the table, then went inside to clean himself up.
On returning to the living room, Aditya had already seen Dion who was busy eating voraciously.
"Have you been home?" Ask Dion
Dion only looked briefly at Aditya and continued eating.
Aditya did not answer Dion's question and took a packet of food.
Not long ago Aditya ate his food, his phone rang. Seen on the screen that lights the name of Mr. Gunawan
Aditya chokes while reading the name on his phone screen, Dion stares at the confused Aditya.
"Who?" Ask Dion
Aditya did not answer Dion's question, retrieved the ringing phone and walked out of the house.

(Call disconnected)
*I have to how else, I can't keep going like this?* inner Aditya
Aditya went inside the house and went straight into the room without paying attention to Dion.
Dion who saw Aditya's attitude like that, did not want to disturb him first. And continue eating
After he finished eating, Dion stared at the food Aditya left open
"Even he just ate a little" Dion said
Dion cleaned up the leftovers and kept Aditya's food
As he was about to go to the kitchen and pass by Aditya's room, Dion heard Aditya's scream, spontaneously Dion opened Aditya's room door and saw Aditya curled up on the floor.
"Dit, are you okay?"
Aditya does not answer Dion's question, Dion understands Aditya's position of being unable to do anything about it.
"Are you sure you're not? If everything that happened must have given us something we never thought of before?" Said Dion (Sitting next to Aditya by leaning on the bed)
Aditya was still silent and did not answer Dion's words, Dion just took a slow breath.
"The beginning we met up to now is something I never expected before, and it applies also to what you are facing right now. I'm sure you understand what I mean, Dit, think about it." Connect Dion
Aditya just kept quiet and digested all of Dion's words
*Dion is right, without Mr. Gunawan I would not be able to meet and befriend him now as well as what I would experience in the future*in the inner Aditya
