The Charm Behind the Mist

Story in Day H (2).

~Happy Reading~

Ms. Hutama who had seen Parry enter the ballroom with a beautiful girl, was surprised and spoke with Mr. Ariand Hutama. They know, the woman who's been close to Parry, just Carren. It made them curious, then walked up to Parry.

Riri who saw Pak Ariand and Bu Hutama walking up to them, was surprised. His hands were cold again though still held by Parry. Slowly, Parry clapped his hand to signal for calm.

"Parry, who's this woman you're carrying?" Ask Mr. Ariand seriously. In his mind, this meant that the security side had been negligent. They did not tell him that there was a woman other than Carren close to Parry. While Bu Hutama only pay attention to the hand of Parry who is holding Riri's hand. In his mind, it means they are close and he does not know.

"It's Alle, Pi." Parry answered briefly and Riri nodded respectfully to Mr. Ariand, his great boss.

"Alle's secretary?" Ask Mr. Ariand as if he did not believe it. It is so different from how it looks in the office.

Mr. Piltaren and Ms. Linna, stunned as Parry was to Mr. Ariand, saw them alternately. Mr. Ariand who realized the presence of Mr. Piltaren, immediately greeted him.

But Mr. Piltaren replied to Mr. Ariand's greeting by asking Parry. "This is your son, Mr Hutama?" Ask Mr. Piltaren to convince him. Because Pak Ariand never introduced Parry as heir, but only as one of the Directors at Hutama.

"Yes, Mr. Piltaren. I haven't announced it yet, because there's a problem that hasn't been resolved. So we kept it hidden. I'm telling you, because it's been found out here." Mr. Ariand spoke slowly.

"God... This is our daughter Riri who works at Hutama. I didn't expect him to be your son's secretary." Mr. Piltharen introduces Riri, his daughter.

"God... So Alle's your daughter?" Ask Mr. Ariand no less surprised. Hearing the conversations of the husbands, Bu Linna looked at Parry with a relieved heart. Likewise with Bu Hutama, because they already know each other in business. Bu Linna and Bu Hutama immediately splashed cipiki with hearts of relief and pleasure. Their sons and daughters were in a well-known and well-to-do environment.

"Sanaa... You guys go hang out with your friends, not with us here." Said Ms. Linna, while pushing them by hand, slowly.

Riri and Parry were relieved, seeing the atmosphere that was going on between their two parents. "Alle, I don't like meeting them. Let's go somewhere else." Parry said, when he saw Riri walking towards Ayunna and the others.

"We'll just go there, because I'm very curious about what happened to Ayunna and Liana. At that time, Liana told Recky that Ayunna's betrothed. Why is it now, Liana's married to Recky?" Riri could not cover up her curiosity in front of Parry.

"alright. I'm curious too, because as I always say, Carren is Recky's bluff. Why is it so messy now?" Parry follows Riri as she approaches Ayunna. Without them noticing, Sainy had already noticed them since getting into the ballroom.

"How are you all?" Riri asked as she approached Ayunna. Before Ayunna replied, Sainy's Mommy who was near Sainy approached Riri and asked. "Here, your boyfriend Riri?" Mommy Sainy asked regardless of her daughter's irritated gaze.

"Good night, Auntie. It's Parry, ..." Riri did not continue his speech, because it had been cut by Parry.

"Good night Auntie, yes, her boyfriend." Parry said, extending his right hand to greet Mommy Sainy. While his left hand still holds Riri's hand. Parry dislikes Sainy's gaze at herself and Riri, making her say that.

Hearing that, Sainy bowed sadly. The party atmosphere was no longer attractive to him. He was wearing a dress designed especially for her. He knew Parry would definitely come to this party. All his efforts and hopes were ambyaar, upon hearing what Parry had said.

Mommy Sainy understood, this is Parry her daughter meant to be. Seeing Parry standing in front of her, Mommy Sainy deeply regrets not helping her daughter to get to Parry, instead hearing her friends. Her mother was even more sorry, when she saw Parry and Riri's parents talking cheerfully and casually.

Parry doesn't understand Mommy Sainy's look at her and she doesn't like it. To distract them for her and Riri, Parry approaches Ayunna. "How are you, Ayunna? What's it like to be stabbed?" Parry asked without an intro, straight to the point. It made Riri stunned and gave the code to his grasp. But too late, Parry had already said it.

"You're laughing at me?" Ayunna asked, emotion hearing Parry's question.

"No. Did you see me laughing? I just wonder how two fleas can jump on each other. You've been all this time, jumping left right eyeing Carren and trying to eat him. Don't know you're eaten by a tick that sticks to you." Parry said, expressionless and cynical to Ayunna.

Riri does not react, as she realizes Carren is the closest person to Parry. Maybe there was something bad Ayunna and Liana did to him, making Parry very angry. He recalled their meeting at Nine Five Restaurant. Parry acted and spoke in the same tone.

"So now, are you satisfied to see us eating each other?" Ayunna asked in annoyance, as it was already emotional.

"No. I haven't seen you eat each other. Now I just saw you eaten. I know you, Swing. So I'm waiting how you're gonna eat it." Parry said, as he approached his face to Ayunna. It made Ayunna surprised, because what she was planning as if it could be read by Parry.

Ayunna spontaneously pushed Parry's shoulder and moved away from her. "Thuu, the future mother-in-law did not come. Stick to him, maybe he can help you eat his new ghost." Parry said, pointing at the new Bu Biantra.

Ayunna was really upset, but approached Bu Biantra and splashed with a bitter sweet smile. Parry became nauseous seeing her. "Already, Parry. Enough." Riri shook Parry's hand in his grasp.

"Parry, look at this room and guarantee it. Something's awkward in my opinion." Riri talks to distract Parry from Ayunna.

"What's so weird?" Ask Parry and start paying attention to the party room. According to Parry, everything is good and very luxurious. He greatly admired Carren's taste and design. Luxuriously laid out catering and many huts in various places. Also the scattered fresh flower decor makes the party very classy in accordance with the two conglomerate families.

Their seats have not been opened in the wings of the ballroom. Looking at the many round tables neatly laid out behind glass, he knew it was for their parents as fellow businessmen. Or for the office invited.

"Parry, don't you see the guarantee? The seats are two for the bride. For the elderly there is no. There is also no wedding cake. Don't you feel that's awkward?" Ask Riri, slowly. Parry began to pay attention from Riri's point of view. Because it was unthinkable to him.

"Ooh yeah, yeah. Pantesan Bu Biantra was already there not in the bridal family's place. Did something happen, get them married? I know Recky very well, he was in school very unwilling to be approached by the two of them. The other girls approached her, from various walks of life, she would respond to even having them eat in the cafeteria. But if the two of them come near her, she'll stand up and leave her food." Parry began to remember what happened first and increasingly felt the awkwardness.

"Is it because of the business of his parents who forced them to get married? But for Recky, he won't get dizzy. Shot dead, he won't." Parry thought, after seeing everything. 'Is this related to Carren?' Ask Parry in my heart. He knew Recky very well, he could say as he pleased to the women who were chasing him. But to Carren, he only interfered by approaching her suddenly, then laughed and left Carren with a surprised face while holding her chest.

Parry once saw beside the school, Ayunna was almost beaten by Recky, when he found out they accidentally nudged Carren into a ditch. That made Parry conclude at heart. 'There must be some connection to Carren, let alone seeing Recky approach Carren when Naina's sister dies.'
