THE STAR OF HEAVEN

PART 47'S

Zalynda glanced at Ray who seemed to be focusing on driving next to her. From the cake shop of Edah, Ray became more quiet. Indeed, the character of Ray is a type that does not talk much, but Ray's silence this time has a reason. The purchased cake was handed over to Zalynda's choice, Ray just waiting for the girl at the cashier to make payment

"Ray.." call Zalynda

"Hmm?" Answer Ray briefly.

"You mad?" Ask Zalynda quietly

Ray pulled the tip of his lips. His eyes remained focused forward

"Why should I be angry?"

"Because I call our relationship a friend in front of Edah."

Ray laughed, but Zalynda felt Ray's laughter harbored emotions

"No, it's fine Za. If you think of me as your friend, that's okay. Maybe you're ashamed to admit our relationship.."

"No, not that. I was thinking about the rumors that would hit you and the company if anyone knew the first son of owner Frederick Groups Company had married secretly to an ordinary girl.." Zalynda tried to explain

Ray scoffed and said sharply "But you don't think about my feelings, Za.."

"Ray.."

Ray immediately grabbed Zalynda's speech

"You know? Actually, my family and I can handle the rumors that will be circulating if the news of our marriage spread. I'm not ashamed to admit it, I even prepared the answers to the possible questions."

Ray paused his words as they stopped at the red light. It looks like Ray is breathing rough.

"I thought you weren't ready to tell everyone about our relationship. You're not ready to admit that you're married. Or maybe you still want to be considered single in order to attract men out there?"

Zalynda turned her head while looking in disbelief at Ray. "Why do you think so Ray? You know I never imagined another man besides you!"

Those words only spun on Zalynda's head as the girl looked at Ray with teary eyes

Zalynda breathed. Slowly touch Ray's shoulder. Unexpectedly, Ray jerking his hand made the girl surprised.

"I'm just a friend, right? Please keep your limits." Ray said with his eyes looking straight ahead, not once did Ray look towards Zalynda

Zalynda. A drop of tears fell down his hands. The girl did not think that her words at the cake shop Edah made Ray so angry.

***

They arrive at Aya's boutique to coincide with the announcement of the selection for the aspiring boutique model who replaced Mariska

Ray quickly got out of the car. Zalynda breathed a heavy sigh. Soon the girl wiped her eyes and was about to open the door

Ray opens the door to Zalynda's car. In his angry condition, Ray did not forget the adab that was taught by Ardhi and Erik in treating his special woman

The two of them walked into Aya's boutique. Ray deliberately preceded Zalynda and Zalynda deliberately slowed his steps so that they did not simultaneously enter the boutique.

"Linda?"

Zalynda turned her head as her feet had just stepped into the boutique. Looks Graceful and Diva walks up to him

Gracefully scanned the appearance of the Zalynda. The girl looks beautiful with blue midi dress below knee with ⅞ sleeves. Very compatible with the circular bracelet in Zalynda's hand

"Why did you come here? Don't tell me you're auditioning for a model?!" Say Diva while closing her mouth. Deep down, Diva admits that Zalynda's simple makeup looks are much prettier than her full make-up

"No, I'm.."

"Ohoho of course, you're here to apply for a job as a material scissor or cleaning service?" Gracefully interrupted Zalynda's sentence while laughing

Zalynda only smiled slightly while nodding. "If so, I go inside. Let's aunt, Diva."

Graceful and Diva see Zalynda heading for the pantry. The two smiled with relief knowing that Zalynda had not auditioned for a model at Tsurayya's boutique

Zalynda walked quickly avoiding Anggun and the Diva. He was just walking, apparently his feet were carrying himself towards the boutique pantry. Zalynda sitting limp in the pantry. The girl was worried that Anggun and Diva would come back to insult her in front of many people. Thank goodness it didn't happen

"Ray where ya.." whispered Zalynda quietly

Without Zalynda noticing, Aryo, the boutique photographer, Aya, secretly takes the picture

***

"It looks like no one has been able to replace Mariska, ma'am." Vera said in despair when she saw some photos from the audition held on Monday

Aya stared at some photos that were on her computer. Indeed until now there has been no sense of click in his heart with photos of audition participants.

"We have to choose, ma'am. Chesswulan collection must be launched for the requirements to attend Paris Fashion Week next year." Nita said

"Haiish.." Aya scratched her forehead

Tok.dok..

"Mother.." Ray bows his head at the door.

"Hi, get in the bang. Wait, it's not lunchtime, is it?" Aya said to let Ray in while looking at the clock

Aya looked behind Ray "Alone? Where's za?"

Vera and Nita steal each other's eyes. Za who? A female? It is not usual that Aya's eldest son brings a woman

"So.it's in the back. Try to find your brother first, mother."

"Eeiiit ntar first, try to help mother choose a replacement model Mariska. Here a minute." Aya said while pulling Ray sitting in front of her laptop

Ray looks lazy to see the photos of the girls audition participants. The young man scratched his head. Vera and Nita laugh at seeing Ray being pulled over just like that

"Where's the bang?" Ask Aya

"As for mom, beautiful all right." Said Ray flat

"Well, tumben muji-muji." Vera Goda

"Yes is Vera's brother. They're all girls, definitely beautiful. If I say handsome isn't funny."

Sontak Vera and Nita laugh at Ray

Geck.

Aryo was seen at the door. The man first knocked on the door even though Aya's door was wide open

"Yo's In." Said Aya

"Mom, take a look at the results of this shot of me." Said Aryo who looks excited showing his candid results when in the pantry earlier

Aya, Vera and Nita look at Aryo's photo. All three smiled. I did not choose Aryo as a photographer. The man easily knew the hidden beauty and beauty and could bring it up in a photo

"This is ma'am. Beautiful natural. It won't be hard to dress up." Vera said excitedly

"Again, but this girl didn't audition. At least we also take one audition participant so as not to cause suspicion in the future." Nita said

Aya nodded her sign in agreement. The woman looked towards Ray with a knotty smile

"Well, is this one pretty regular or pretty?" Aya asked while thrusting Aryo's camera at Ray

Ray looks at the photo on Aryo's camera carefully. Ray's heart trembled to see Zalynda sitting in the pantry enjoying a glass of water.

The photo Aryo took was a candid photo, but Zalynda looked beautiful even when the girl was singing her lips, I don't know what was on her mind. Everything looks natural, natural and natural

"It's so pretty." whispered Ray

"Of course, my eyes are never wrong to scan beautiful women." Aryo said a little jokingly, but success made Ray's feelings a little disturbed.

(Who forgot who Nita and Vera were, they were boutique clerks who were employees of Aya's trust. It's in the PRINCESS novel)
