The Secret of the Secretary
Chapter 35
FLASHBACKS
"Don't you see this picture of me?" said a beautiful girl who ran over to a boy with glasses that decorated her slightly puffed-up face.
"Be careful when you fall" the boy reminded him.
"Look at this, brother!" he exclaimed while showing a picture of a pair of boys and girls who were holding hands wearing a princess disney-style outfit and a black suit. "This is my dream when I grow up" he continued, looking up at the sky fantasizing about the future.
"If so marry me! I promise I'll make the wedding like the Disney princess you dreamed of" the boy said.
"really! Brother will keep his promise until we grow up?" ask the girl while showing her little finger.
"Yes my sister promised" he said confidently while linking their little fingers together. They also looked at each other and smiled with the promise to the deepest recesses of their hearts.
FLASHBACK OFF
That promise was what made Vero come back and began to look for the whereabouts of his little bride. Until unexpected unexpected meeting that makes them together.
"Then now Nia works where Mom?" ask Vero to make sure it is true that the photo he saw before is the woman he was looking for all this time.
"Mother didn't know for sure what company she was in but she said she worked at one of the biggest companies in the capital. He always sends money on time to mom, he says that it's for his sister's needs at the parlor. Or maybe Ale knows better because they have been friends since childhood" replied Ms. Wati.
"Well ma'am maybe I'll ask him later, but can I ask for a photo of them both mom?" ask Vero for permission.
"Take it if you want, I still have a lot of photos of their memories. Do you want to see the others?" ask Ms. Wati while looking for their old album in one of the drawers. They ended up telling each other and laughing together every time they saw each different photo.
"You are growing well my little bride-to-be" Vero murmured inwardly as he watched Rania change year after year. "But why do you seem to never know me? Have you forgotten about our promise? I could get to know you right away when we met, I just confirmed your identity and believed that my feelings never faded for you" her heart kept asking every look at that sweet smile.

Meanwhile the girl they were talking about was daydreaming in the laundry area while waiting for the washing machine to finish working for her. There was a song played by a guard there through a loudspeaker.
Hundreds of full moon passed
But love never passes
Even if you throw me out of your life
But my love remains silent
Hundreds of full moon passed
Alone without love
There was never another love
My heart is open only to you
Duhai love, reluctant to bargain for taste
Your angry waves are too much
Creaks the sound of my heart
Let's keep our visibility far away
But my heart and soul
Always feel by your side
Duhai love, it's hard 'me fingered
Shut up and cool you why?
Thousands of days I remember you
Read all your poems
This body-drying awaits you
Hundreds of full moon of our love are back
Duhai love, reluctant to bargain for taste
Your angry waves are too much
Creaks the sound of my heart
Let's keep our visibility far away
But my heart and soul
Always feel by your side
Duhai love, it's hard 'me fingered
Shut up and cool you why?
Thousands of days I remember you
Read all your poems
This body-drying awaits you
Hundreds of full moon of our love are back again
Hundreds of full moon of our love are back
(Ratusan Purnama by Melly Goeslaw feat Marthino Lio)
Somehow the song was like telling her that she had been waiting for her first love to come for hundreds of full moons without ever realizing it.
"Haaah.." he sighed when he remembered a long-ago event. But he smiled again when he remembered the event that had just happened some time ago. He shook his hands because he felt his cheeks hot in this refrigerated room.
"That my heart is now indecisive, honestly I still love my brother in the deepest recesses of my heart because he is my first love. It's not over for me, even we didn't start anything. But I couldn't lie to my thumping heart when I got the gaze and attention of my tiger CEO. Even my heart still rippled when it remembered the mere*uman." he muttered to himself while covering his face with both hands ashamed of his own if he remembered the event.
"What should I do with this branched heart of mine. Because I can't if I have to choose between the two" he continued to feel sad until he was unaware that the washing machine had stopped working.
...❁ ❁ ❁ ❁ ❁ ❁...
"Okay, our mother came home first" said Vero to Ibu Wati, then he invited the Princess to come home because the day was late in the afternoon.
"Heart on the road" the foster mother replied as she waved her hand.
"See you again sister everyone" said the Princess to the children of the orphanage who had been busy playing with her.
"Yes brother. Thank you gift by her brother Ale" replied the boy compactly while smilingly hugging their respective gifts.
"No problem, take good care of the gift" said the Princess while blinking one eye and the child nodded their head with enthusiasm.
"Good body that precious thing is Nak Putra" Mother Wati whispered a little to Vero, who was only responded with the most beautiful smile from him.
"What precious thing did you mean sister?" ask the princess as they are on their way home.
"It's nothing" Vero replied casually.
"Let's tell me what it is?" asked the curious Princess while writhing spoiled on her brother's arm.
"It's not a child's business" he said again while randomly shuffling his sister's hair with affection.
The princess can only frown while still hugging the arms of the brother during the trip home.
"It was a precious thing related to my little bride" Vero murmured inwardly as he recalled the photo that Ms Wati had given him as they looked at the album. He asked for one of Nia's photos that looked beautiful and different at the time of her high school graduation first. He will always keep the photo in his wallet.
