The Destiny of Love Aleesha

Chapters. 24. The Mysterious Man's Self

As Aleesha ordered, Widya immediately prepared five hundred million rupiah in cash. And he went back to Aleesha's apartment, having finished his business with the BANK.

"This is Ma'am, what Mbak asked for I have prepared."

"Thank you." Aleesha replied without even glancing at her interlocutor.

"But Ma'am, once again I remind you. Please reconsider, what you're going to do." Widya is still trying hard to soften Aleesha's heart.

"I'll finish it my own way." He answered without caring about others for His safety.

"Mr Aleesha, let me take Ma'am." This time Ridwan offered himself.

"Thank you, you guys are so good to me. You can call the police if in twenty-four hours there's no word from me." His request subtly rejected Ridwan's offer.

I don't know what kind of stupidity Aleesha is doing right now. Even Widya was not out of thought. But he realized, that Aleesha's mind was currently in a state of turmoil.

"I'm leaving first, Wid, Mas Ridwan." Located in the apartment parking area.

Aleesha actually went and drove her own car.

Widya notices Ridwan's strange behavior, which since they went to BANK, is seen secretly busy with a cell phone in his hand.

Drrtt...

"Mas Ridwan_"

"Yes. Wid, I'll take the call first." Cut it as if evading.

Even picking up the phone had to stay away from Widya.

'Who contacted Mas Ridwan, why should he stay away from here.' Widya thought a little suspicious.

Not wanting to be more prejudiced again, Widya slowly approached and tried to listen to Ridwan's conversation with the mysterious man in his cellphone.

"He was gone, about fifteen minutes ago. Fine, fine."

That sentence sounded more and more making Widya more suspicious.

"Who is it ?" Widya asked in surprise, as Ridwan began to turn around after ending his conversation.

"Oh this, it's nobody."

Widya scrunched her forehead. It was not usual for Ridwan to hide something from her. Although actually at times like this, it is mandatory for Widya to suspect everyone close to Him and Aleesha.

Aleesha, however, was still busy with the phone in her hand. He was following the guidance sent by someone who was waiting for their transaction deal this afternoon.

Streets are deserted, there is no traffic. There was a little fear in his heart. Either guts from where he got, so desperate to come alone to the tiger's nest.

"I'm already at the point you're asking." Voice note he sent.

"Park your vehicle under a lush mango tree and lots of bushes there. Then enter the house at the corner of the board." A reply from the voice note he sent.

There are some buildings there. But everything looks lonely. It looks like it is uninhabited.

Slowly, Aleesha strode her feet, through the towering tall reeds, almost on par with her waist. This time, only the caterpillars and snakes that he feared and managed to make his hair stand up.

Hc .. tok ..

"Come in and shut the door again." There was a voice of someone ordering from within. Aleesha slowly opened, but she did not close again.

"Sorry, it's best to leave it a little open." Her request.

However, the man deftly closed even the main door of the house, without heeding Aleesha's request.

"Hey, why lock it, I'm not going to run, I'm also bringing what you ask." Pinta Aleesha who still does not know who this mysterious man really is.

Because the room is quite dark. Plus, the mysterious man wore a hat and turned his back on him from the very beginning.

"Sit down, don't be afraid, we'll talk good." Soft talk.

They sit across. The man began to raise his face and open his hat. How shocked Aleesha was, after knowing who the mysterious man who invited her this afternoon was.

"Still remember me, Miss Aleesha ?"

"Anton." He said softly while curling his own lips.

Anton, the man's name is Anton. A photographer who had worked with Aleesha during an advertising project of herbal products that she brought.

"I don't think anyone remembers me anymore." He said a little.

But the Anton he used to know, unlike Anton today. Anton who used to be so gentle, said sweet words and always be polite.

But I don't know what happened, because it's been a few months, he didn't meet the figure of Anton again.

"How are you Miss ? Shocked to see me ?" Its effects.

"No, it's not, but_"

"But what ? This is Anton, isn't it still the same as Anton was ?"

'What exactly happened, why did Anton turn out like this.' Aleesha asked inwardly.

"You must be wondering, why am I like this ?"

"I_"

"No need to answer, I'll definitely tell you everything." Again Anton interrupted Aleesha's speech.

Inwardly, Aleesha was convinced, Anton was a good man. And there must be a cause, so he's like this.

"There's still plenty of time for me to tell stories." Initially.

"So after the rejection of that time, I was a little desperate and insecure." Further.

*Flashback On

"One, two, okay."

"Let's go for the third style. Aleesha's mother holds onto her product." Anton's instructions as a photographer at the time.

"One, two.sip, we break first."

"Look at the result." Aleesha asked as she ran over.

They sat at the same table, waiting for the lunch that was soon to be served.

Anton showed a few poses of himself in the camera. Both look very close and familiar.

"You, so beautiful Aleesha." Anton muttered, amidst Aleesha's smile admiring her own image.

Anton's words, however, were considered a joke.

"Alees." Call back.

"Hhhhhhh." Aleesha answered while gulping down the orange juice prepared for her.

"Can I say something ?" Ask Anton without further ado.

"What ? Say."

"Just this time I felt another tremor in my heart." His words are getting serious.

"Hehem...You're in love ?" Aleesha asked who was still unaware of his whereabouts.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Oh yeah, who's the same ?" Again Aleesha was still lacking in sensitivity.

"I fell in love with someone sitting next to me." He said frankly.

Aleesha laughed, she thought what Anton said, was just a joke.

"Why are you laughing Aleesha ?"

"Finally, you're joking it's gone. How do people hear ? He thought seriously later." Aleesha replied as she moved on to leave.

"But I'm serious Aleesha." Strictly Anton prevents Aleesha from leaving.

"My answer is Aleesha, will you be my lover ?"

"Anton, it's ah. Don't joke." Prevent Aleesha for the umpteenth time.

"I never joke with Aleesha's heart. I'm serious, I'm falling for you."

From the look of her eyes, Aleesha was already able to judge, looking seriousness there.

"Sorry Anton, for now I'm focused on pursuing a career."

Although Aleesha's reply left Anton a little disappointed, he tried to understand her. Because indeed Aleesha's career is currently on the rise.

Anton grabbed and clasped Aleesha's fingers, which made Aleesha startled.

"But is there a little room for me ?" Ask Anton to make sure.

"Sorry Anton, besides, there's already another name in my heart." Aleesha replied, pulling back her hand. This time Aleesha's answer really made Anton desperate.

He's let go of Aleesha. Even Anton himself left, leaving the next photo shoot. He's headed for a chair in the park. He sees his mistake there.

'If I hadn't poured out my heart too quickly, I might still be able to see it at this moment and wouldn't feel awkward because I was holding it to myself. But, who was the man who was filling the empty space in his heart.' Thought in the heart.

"Anton !"

I heard someone calling him.

"What's up ?"Anton approached.

"There's something you need to explain in the office."

Anton immediately follows David to the room where Asbram and several important people are already in.

"Is something wrong, sir ?" Ask Anton who feels something is wrong in this room.

Bra.akkk... !

A stack of pictures was thrown on the table right in front of him.

Anton grabs it, scrutinizing one by one his drawings.

"This is my design." Her speech.

"And how can the design of the image fall into the hands of other competitors ?" Ask Asbram.

"I don't know sir." Rebuttals.

"Try to explain your ignorance of this."

A video of the transaction was clearly displayed in Anton's eyes. And in the video it is clear that Anton is with someone talking, followed by the delivery of a flash replaced with a lump of cash in a brown envelope.

"Here, it's not what you see. It has nothing to do with my image file." He still defended himself.

"I don't want to know, the company has borne a huge loss for all these events. In fact, we're being sued for being accused of plagiarizing their images." Asbram.

Anton was silent, unable to defend himself anymore. I don't know what happened, the situation was so fast that it ended in dismissal of him.

From then on, Anton who used to be Anton who is now.
