There's Only You

CHAPTER 12 - Divia Disappointment

"Don't worry Aurora. Aunty make sure, this time no one will film you. You take it easy, only we will see your appearance this time. Believe me" said Mauli, who tried to calm the anxiety of the princess.

"Papa promise?" Aurora looked at her Papa with a look of hope and reassurance.

"Yes, dear, Papa promised. Your mama won't know about this" Arifin said confidently. His words sounded sincere and trustworthy.

Aurora looked at them one by one, with a doubtful and hesitant look. After a long sigh, he nodded and said. "All right"

After agreeing, he and Alwi walked towards the stage. Their performance was preceded by cheers and a standing ovation from everyone in the room, who remembered Aurora, who was currently going viral.

Although feeling nervous, but Aurora can still play her beautiful voice, which is collaborated with the melodious voice of Alwi.

Along with the music that resonates, the two combine sounds that sound very harmonious in singing romantic genre songs that make music lovers, especially lovers who are in that place, participate washed away and carried away the atmosphere of music and song lyrics derived from the two talents.

As well as the other spectators, Arifin also felt very entertained by their performance.

Despite knowing the ability of his daughter who inherited his talent, but since divorced from Divia, only this time he heard the voice of his daughter's humming since the girl was an adult. She heard it when Aurora was 10 years old.

Meanwhile, a car stopped in front of the bustling and noisy Arifin mansion, with vehicles and guests constantly arriving and passing by.

The driver got down from the front door, then walked towards the back door and opened it. He respectfully invited his great mistress who was none other than Divia to get out of the car. After that the driver returned to the luxury car to go to the parking lot.

Divia stared at her ex-husband's large and luxurious house, which was full of decorative decorations and flickering small chandeliers.

Honestly, he was reluctant to come to this house. Especially meeting with his beloved ex-husband and wife. But Aurora's words were his consideration.

He can't keep going like this. Living in anger and resentment against Arifin and Mauli, for their betrayal of him in the past. Perhaps it was time for him to learn to forgive and reconcile with them.

If he felt it was hard doing it for himself, he should at least be able to do it for the sake of his only puppet princess whom he loved so much. Kasian Aurora, for years she lived in a broken home family.

Especially having to watch his parents who never get along. Although he and Arifin are no longer likely to be able to live together, at least they can reconcile and become a pair of compact ex for the sake of their child.

With doubts she was trying to get rid of, Divia walked into the house in slow steps. Mingle with other invited guests who flocked in.

Arriving inside, Divia heard the music that echoed in the room and felt deafening. And the sound of a pair of men and women singing with their merdunya. Looks like the show just started. Maybe Arifin invited musicians or bands to join her birthday party.

Aurora still really enjoys her activities that are humming with Alwi. A smile seemed to decorate her beautiful face. A smile that came from his heart that was relieved. To make it seem lost.

Is it because he's talking to this girl? It seems that he can't deny it anymore, if he's already in love with this girl. The girl who was none other than the daughter of her own producer.

The music was slowly dimmed, beginning with the lyrics of their voices stopping. Applause and cheers were again received by Alwi and Aurora, for their very satisfying performance.

But suddenly Aurora was surprised, when she realized the presence of Mama in that place. Standing peeked among the other invited guests who stared at him in amazement and awe. But the woman looked at him with a sad and disappointed look.

"Mama" muttered Aurora who was stunned to see her mother who was watching her from earlier. And saw himself singing in front of this many people. And he was very sure, that his mother would definitely come back angry.

Alwi who heard Aurora's murmur turned his head, and followed the direction of the girl's gaze. She was flabbergasted to see a middle-aged woman with an elegant appearance and still looking beautiful, standing looking at Aurora with a look full of disappointment.

Alwi knitted his brows in confusion. Who is that girl? Why was Aurora looking at the woman so sadly? And why did his existence instantly make Aurora's mood change? Is that Mama?

The Divia turned around and walked towards the exit with wide steps. Aurora ran out chasing after her mother. Leaving Alwi and the rest of the room with gawking gazes, looking at the girl's strange demeanor.

So did Arifin and Mauli. But their curiosity was instantly answered, when they had a glimpse of Divia as she walked out of their house.

Arifin was a little surprised to know his ex-wife who also came to his house. His birthday ceremony. And it turns out they watched their daughter's performance while singing. According to Aurora, her mother would never come.

But apparently, their estimates missed. All he was worried about now was Aurora. It's so cute his daughter. Arifin knew that the boy loved his mother very much. And he also knew how hard Divia was to forbid their daughter from singing. Especially in public like this.

And Divia's response to seeing Aurora's behavior, will definitely make Aurora sad and depressed to face the anger of Mama.

Arriving outside, Divia directly contacted the driver to prepare the car. As soon as the car arrived, he rushed in without waiting for the driver to come down and open the door for him first.

"Ma, Mama please listen to my explanation first. Ma, please don't be like this" cried Aurora who ran after Mama and knocked on the car door.

"Mister's Way" Divia declared flatly regardless of Aurora's presence outside her car.

"But Miss Aurora....?" The driver protested with fear and doubt.

"I said walk now!" The Divia raised the volume of her voice, which made the guts of her driver instantly shrivel even more.

"Good Madam" The driver did not dare to argue anymore. He's driving his car. Leaving Aurora who was staring at their departure with a feeling of sadness and guilt. He did not know if the woman would also be present in this place as he had said before.
