The loss of Kendrick Williamson's shadow from his eyes left a rebellion in the realm of his philosophy, the concept of Arvine Dowson's thought on the word 'marriage' immediately spoiled.
"Marriage is an attempt to form a 'circle' of power for the fulfillment of a man's nature." Kendrick Williamson's.
"I want to be like my mother, whose love is able to lift papa from a 'scavenger' to a world-famous merchant." Clarissa Mae's.
"I'll be a grain of dust that falls from the ground when you step on to get to the throne." Clasrissa Mae's.
"I am the dumbest man in the world !" Arvine Dowson, he just wanted to grab his own hair and then buried his head in between his knees. His brain is knee-high, or maybe it's there ? Equally protected by a shell, isn't it ?
Who taught her the concept of marriage ? That it must be based on love to achieve happiness ? William shaksepeare ? Or the Indian story of Rama and Sinta ? I don't know, but one thing is certain, that throughout his trip to Jakarta, with his eyes closed or open, Arvine Dowson's pulse there was only regret.
The roar of wind outside the window added to his regret. He who for years considered the sacrifice of Clarissa Mae as a joke, just because the woman looks geeky by simple grooming and bumbling attitude, in the end, it was also him who felt ashamed.

What's less than Clarissa Mae ? The train ! Only its rigid and ancient carrier. Not as fancy as an airplane, not as brilliant as paint luxury cars.
Rissa, you are a train. Comfortable, safe and reliable ! Least pollute. Sorry, if I was lulled by the beauty of a cruise ship.

"Good morning, Ma !"
The woman looked at him with shocked eyes, the secretary who used to help take care of Clarissa Mae's business was like a confusion. Arvine Dowson who was like suddenly standing in front of his desk made it a nightmarish.
"Mr Dowson !? Good morning." he stood up to greet. Slightly ducked but placed his eyes to peek at the clothes of his interlocutor.
"Sorry, I just arrived in Jakarta, and straight here" explained Arvine Dowson after realizing that the condition of his clothes was not worth to visit. "Mom Boss is there ?"
"There, Master ! Please come in."
"Thank you." after smiling, Arvine Dowson rushed back to his bag to quickly open the door of the main director's room. Hopefully one, wants to meet soon with the owner of the room-Clarissa Mae.
Knock ... Knock ... Whether angry or hateful, I came with an apology.
"Good morning, Riss ... Rara !?" his chest crashed into the anchor, pierced right through the nerves of his disappointment, all the joints in his body instantly limp, no Clarissa Mae. "Why are you sitting there ?"
"Bang Vinnie !?" no less surprised, Raquella Mae was stunned, not believing in what she had just seen. The figure of Arvine Dowson passing in from behind the door was the most beautiful surprise that morning.
Then Raquella Mae walked over, her steps giving Arvine Dowson goosebumps. Soft and gurgling, spreading horror nuances. Raquella Mae who used to be cute and impressed brandalan suddenly became soft and polite. "Good !" Maybe everyone will say that, but not Arvine Dowson. The man knew who the gentleman was, Clarissa Mae was the owner, and Raquella Mae imitated him out of obsession.
The bad side of love is obsession ?
"Why don't you tell me if you want to visit, Bang ?"
His voice was made almost the same. And her clothes, the deep blue blazer wrapped the white hem, the knee-length sponge skirt as close as the blazer ... Yaaa Tuhaaan, Raquella Mae is trying to become Clarissa Mae ! Only a simple hair-collapse failed to replicate, and of course Arvine Dowson's heart-vibrations could not be awakened.
"Oh, sorry to interrupt. Suddenly I wanted to see the house. Because it's in line then I tried to stop by here." Arvine Dowson replied while receiving a warm hug from Raquella Mae.
"Ga bothers me, Bang ! If you tell me I can pick you up."
Even the Rissa dialect she imitated. What happened to you, Dek ?
Muttering only inwardly, Arvine Dowson received a cheek kiss with a cringe of horror. The 'Mine bomb' lighters he had planted in Raquella Mae were getting shaky, could explode at any time when she mispronounced.
"Later 10 o'clock." Raquella Mae replied as she followed the tip of Arvine Dowson's eye. "Why ? Bang Vinnie hoped that the person sitting on the chair was Rissa's sister."
"Ga ! Anyone can sit in that chair. It can make this company more advanced. And you are the future of this company. That's why a little bit of college was taking place." Arvine Dowson messing with the bangs on Raquella Mae's forehead. "The more beautiful you are, Ra !" his low voice seemed angry.
"Everything that looks like Rissa's sister must look pretty in the eye, Brother !" he lamented with his lips, then pretended to throw away his face.
"No one said ? Uhm ... Your nose is taper, your skin is more glowing, your hair is thicker and black. You're prettier than Rissa, so there's gonna be a lot of great guys coming to hope for your love."
"Noway, I've got a guy ! He has locked the door of my heart." Raquella Mae replied in a round tone.
"Wooyyy !! Kilarin. Jan cowo mulu in your brain." Arvine Dowson is leading the conversation so as not to squash the danger.
"Bg ... Bang Vinnie must be so-"
"Rissa in Jakarta, huh ?" sergeant Arvine Dowson is in a hurry to avoid the spoiled 'template' Raquella Mae on his shoulders.
"Ga ! He's still in Surabaya-"
Well lo ! I'm lied to. Tega you, Riss ... But it's fine. My treatment of you is worse.
"This company he handed over to me, and in Surabaya he handed it to you. For what purpose try ? For our sake, Bang ! So that we can be as soon as-"
Ta*cat chocolate flavor ! I can't do your scenario, Rissa ! This is too late !! You even destroy all the efforts you have pioneered with sweat and tears. Don't be your hero ... Risssaaaaaa !
Cold sweat mixed with car dust, all over Arvine Dowson. It creates an incredible sense of care. Then tired further add to his anxiety.
"It's almost 10 o'clock, and I also have to look at the condition of the house. Excuse me, will you, Ra ?" arvine Dowson's. The man's face was almost expressionless. Covering his guilt by throwing his face at the door.
"Can I go to college ? This time only ? I still miss.”
"If my arrival here brings you lazy back, then I should not have to come here again."
"Bg ... That cake is so ! Yes .. yes .. I went to college. But anterin to campus." despite still objections but in the end Raquella Mae moved from Arvine Dowson's arm. Stroll around his desk to pick up a bag there.
Without passion, Arvine Dowson walked towards the door. Her footsteps were lazy, and her eyes were glaring. His brain was still wandering at the decision of Clarissa Mae which he considered nothing more than a divine class mingle.
There can be no sacrifice resembling a show ! That means associating. I have to go back to Surabaya.
"Bang, wait !" yell Raquella Mae.
When Arvine Dowson stopped by the doorway, the girl had already grabbed his arm, unabashed even though the secretary's eyes were looking at him uneasily. But there is no other choice, one role must be undertaken by Arvine Dowson, as a brother to his future sister-in-law. Although he is also uncomfortable, but he wants the best for Raquella Mae, hoping for time to mature the girl.
Raquella Mae can mimic her brother's attitude and behavior, but fails miserably on the scale of her personality. That was evident when Arvine Dowson stared questioningly: "this is your car, Ra ?"
"Yes ... Why, Bang ?"
"Gapa !" Arvine Dowson smiled wryly. His waist hit the soft seat of a new Lamborghini sedan, convertible roof model, the price ? Hmmmm .. 1 billion more !
"Ntar I have to go back to Surabaya. This car will go there. You use my car at home." with a heavy voice, Arvine Dowson half forced to change cars.
Raquella Mae's face suddenly frowned, it was clear that she objected to the idea. Even the sound of his heavy breathing was deliberately hardened, so that Arvine Dowson understood his objections.
"This car invites danger ! There will be a lot of evil intentions created when you drive it on the streets. Just use my car ! No one is going to go after that car. And you must be safe." Arvine Dowson's decision can no longer be sued. Accepted as a decree.
"Your car is ugly, Bang ! Hiks hiks hyks." bidding on the remnants of his courage. In the end Raquella Mae had to resign when she heard the answer: "lo want to go to college ? or show off the wealth on campus."
