In contrast to the cheerful Daniella welcoming the morning, Francesca looked so moody at the time. Since coming out of his room, he immediately searched for Coco's figure. But what he did had to end up disappointed. With gontai steps, Francesca walked towards the dining room. He follows Mia who looks so excited about trying a new menu that he just got from the internet.
“Let me help, Mia,” bargained Francesca when Mia looks busy preparing ingredients and cooking utensils. Francesca tried to be ordinary. However, he still could not hide his gloomy face from Mia.
Mia did not immediately reply. The young lady even looked at the sweet face of the sister in surprise. “Why else, Francy?” the question is gentle and attentive. Now, it was Francesca's turn to not answer immediately. He glanced at Daniella who walked over with a fresh face. The blonde haired girl immediately pulled one of the dining chairs that were nearby while smiling cheerfully.
“Good morning, everyone,” greet Daniella. “Where are all the men in this house?” tanyanya circulated her gaze around the room.
“Theo is still sleeping. It looks like he's exhausted. And, Ricci .…” Mia seemed to think for a moment before continuing her sentence. “I saw him come out of Casa de Luca, early in the morning. I think shortly after Daniella and Marco came home,”.
Francesca swallowed her saliva after hearing Mia's explanation. “Where to go it?” tanyanya.
“I think he might go home to the workshop,” replied Mia. "Ricci had intended to return to his workshop from the moment I left for Rome. However, because he knew me and Theo were going there, he insisted on going along and disengaging his intentions. Though he had long since left his job in the workshop," explained Mia again. He resumed his work.
“Ah, let it go. Men always do what they want, Mia. By the way, I'm starving,” interrupted Daniella while combing her blonde hair using right hand fingers.
Francesca could only be silent. His gaze felt empty and bright. He even nearly sliced his own index finger while helping Mia cut the vegetables. The girl grimaced softly. Francesca could not concentrate on cooking at all, so she decided to just put the knife down.
“I'm sorry, Mia. I can't help you right now,” he said, turning around.
“Where are you going? At least you should have breakfast first,” prevent Daniella.
“You guys have breakfast first. I'm not hungry!” francesca, who has now climbed the stairs to her room. Too much thought of Coco made him lose his appetite. Whatever he did, it always ended up in the shadow of that handsome man's face.
Francesca felt that she should stop her turmoil as soon as possible. Therefore, he decided to change his clothes and apply thin makeup. After that, he grabbed his sling bag. Once ready, Francesca then ran out of the room and returned past the dining table in a hurry.
Mia and Daniela looked at it all with question marks. “Where are you going, Francy?” ask Daniella sonorous.
“Fetch my dreams!” francesca said without stopping running. His steps continued to move towards the Casa de Luca outer gate. He repeatedly waved his hand as the vehicle passed the highway in front of him. In the end, a taxi managed to stop Francesca. Without wasting much time, Francesca entered the vehicle and mentioned the address she was about to go to.
No more than fifteen minutes, the taxi that Francesca was riding stopped right in front of the workshop located not far from the edge of the highway. The workshop with the spacious courtyard looked empty. Only a few cars parked there. The girl also ventured to visit the place.
Dirt and soot appeared on the man's cheeks, which further increased his good looks. His mind was suddenly empty. Everything is pitch dark. However, Francesca could not back down again. He had come this far and it would be in vain if he went straight back home.
Francesca took her breath slowly while gathering courage. His mouth is starting to open. He was about to greet Coco when he saw a girl who seemed to be the same age as Coco, coming out of the workshop while gently patting the handsome man on the shoulder. “Breakfast is ready,” he said melodious.
Francesca's world collapsed. What he expected to end beautifully today, turned out to be nothing more than a mere wishful thinking. The girl started wiping away the tears that started to drip down her cheeks. The scene in front of him was so painful, that he finally decided to turn around.
The awkwardness that Francesca felt back then made her not careful. He just crossed the road, to the point that he did not realize that there was a car speeding towards him. The girl could only be glued to her place without being able to do anything, not even a word could come out of her mouth.
The sound of the car brake shrill so loud, that made Coco turn her eyes towards the highway. In the middle of the road, a driver got out of his car while swearing at a girl as high as he knew it. “Francy!” she screamed as she ran towards the girl.
“What is this?” Coco looked ferociously at the driver of the car who had just chided Francesca.
“Just advise your lover! Do not think this road belongs to his grandfather, so he crossed arbitrarily!” the driver's nag. He got back in his car and left.
Gently, Coco pulled back Francesca's body and led her into the workshop. There, a dark-haired beautiful girl looked at Francesca with a dislike look. “Who is the girl, Ricci?” ask the dark-haired girl.
Jealousy and emotion regained control of Francesca, so she immediately decided to leave Coco. “I don't think it's the right time to come to you,” Francesca murmured. The highlight of his sad face, was clearly visible in Coco's eyes.
“For what did you come to me?” Coco asked in a cold tone. While Francesca just smiled cynically in response. “To tell you, I would rather sacrifice my career, my ideals and my dreams, just to choose to live together with you. However, it seems I am late,” he replied bitterly. After that, Francesca turned her body and intended to get out of the workshop. However, Coco immediately followed him. He grabbed Francesca's wrist and held back the girl's steps.
Francesca stunned. There was a soft stuffing coming out of his lips. A moment later, Francesca turned her body and immediately burst into Coco's arms. The girl was crying there too. While the girl who was none other than Lucia, continued to pay attention to the two of them. Without being told by Coco, she could already guess if the girl who was crying in the arms of the beautiful man must be Francesca. Coco used to tell Lucia about her.
While Francesca starts to break away from Coco's embrace. He looked at the face of the man who had become his first love. Francesca then rubbed the black stain that was stuck under the man's eyes. "This is my life, Francy" said Coco.
"You don't really want to leave me, do you?" ask Francesca. He looked so upset at the time.
"Depends on you" replied Coco without taking her eyes off her pretty face with hazel Francesca's eyes. A face that was very sweet and very difficult for him to forget despite years of separation.
Francesca immediately hit Coco's chest in annoyance. "Basic stupid! You think I'll take it for granted?" his protest. "I've escaped Filippo's entanglement. Where might I be willing to leave you again," Francesca again beat Coco's chest, while the man just laughed softly, making Lucia want to cry.
