Tiara: Queen of Boulevard
#107 Birthday Party 2
When the cake-cutting event was over, Gerald and Ria began to entertain the invited guests. However, long before that Tiara was seriously watching a woman who had not long ago known but had attracted his attention even to the point of making him have to waste time just to find information about her.
The woman was known to everyone for her innocent, cheerful, kind-hearted, meek and gentle manner as well as innocence. Because of his personality that's all the people who know him, put a liking on him.
Many men who want him as well as women who prefer to be friends with him than his best friend who has a personality 180° different from him.
Tiara watched the woman because she was ceaselessly staring at the man standing on the stage holding the hand of another woman beside her. A look and also an expression made Tiara instantly realize that something had happened between them.
Not long after that the man came down from the stage with the woman holding him and approached the woman who had now turned her eyes away from him with an expression that changed as usual.
-----
After hosting the other invited guests, Gerald approached Reno who at that time was busy chatting with Tiara, Luka and the others, while Ria disappeared somewhere.
"Hi Ren." Gerald greeting while extending his right hand which was then received by Reno and the two embraced each other.
"Hi bro, happy sweet seveneen." Reno.
"Thank you." The answer.
Gerald's eyes were then fixed on Luka and Saka. There was a smile of his own that he showed to the two friends before he finally greeted them.
"Hi Luka, Saka." Sapanya pretentious and want to do the same thing but unfortunately his hand is not in the rubris by the two friends.
Embarrassed on his own happy day, Gerald grew angry at Luka and Saka. 'Chew, I'm so hesitant to be a person. If it wasn't for you two being richer than me, I wouldn't have made this cake.'
The Gerald family was one of the wealthiest families in C city but their wealth could not yet be on par with the top two families, the House and the Marapati.
Knowing that Reno, who had helped her younger sister, was best friends with Luka and Saka, Gerald tries to get along with her in order to become a part of them. However, in their several meetings, both Luka and Saka did not criticize him.
Seeing how Gerald's handsome face turned ugly when he ignored Luka and Saka, Tiara and her three best friends held laughter in their hearts, not least Reno who had repeatedly seen the rejection.
Trying to forget the cuteness felt by him, Reno then introduces Tiara and Tiara's three best friends to Gerald as his friends.
Gerald shook his head when he heard Tiara's name spoken from Reno's mouth and without thinking about anything else, he immediately looked at Tiara with a hard-to-guess look and a grin was clearly visible between his lips.
'Hm so he's Tiara? How dare I wear a black dress on my happy day. But it's been anyway the color of her dress will fit perfectly with her fate for a while.' Inner Gerald.
Gerald certainly knew who Tiara was because her popularity and beauty echoed into the ears of students from the Boulevar vocational program. But when viewed directly, Tiara's beauty completely surpassed her expectations to the point of making her two lovers feel envious.
"So you're called Tiara? I've heard a lot about you." Gerald said without further ado.
Seeing how Gerald's reaction was shown to her, Tiara knitted her eyebrows together while her pair of ears heard the words. But of course Tiara knew very well that all of that was inseparable from Ria who had told Gerald.
"I'm sure Ria has told me well. So I guess I don't have to introduce myself anymore, do I?" Tiara said casually behind her fake smile which was even more frightening than her sharp and cold gaze.
Gerald's grin disappeared. When he heard Ria's story, he thought Tiara was just being cold and smart in front of women but in front of men she was just like any other woman. Acting crazy even willing to sell themselves for anything because basically the female figure in the eyes of Gerald is a lowly, stupid and has the nature to always be lied to by men. But who would have thought a Tiara would dare to answer him in such a way.
"That's interesting, interesting is very interesting." Gerald's laughter rolled out throughout the room inviting all the guests' eyes to be on him and Tiara.
"I should have, ah no. I should have known you first Miss Tiara because it would have been much more interesting." Gerald said coldly.
The guests were wondering what had happened between Gerald and Tiara. But certainly behind Gerald's laughter, they could feel if a tension was brewing.
"I don't think it's necessary." Reply Tiara softly then take a glass of juice on the table and drink it elegantly like enjoying a glass of wine.
"Because you yourself already know if our brief meeting today will be the most interesting meeting, even leaving a lot of memories among the invited guests. Am I right, Mr Gerald?" Tiara continued coldly and then turned her gaze from the juice glass in her hand to Gerald.
Gerald was surprised to hear Tiara's words. He began to feel Tiara already knew the intentions of those who wanted to humiliate him in front of everyone today. But where did Tiara know about it? Could the secret be leaking? But he made sure everything was safe. Gerald's thoughts ran everywhere.
Gerald finally dismissed his thoughts and played back his facial expression to reply to Tiara's words. But before he could do it, the sound of his cellphone ringing rang out all the tension that existed.
Tiara glanced at Gerald's phone screen before he received his call but could not see clearly the name of the person who made the call.
"All right, wait for me there." Gerald replies to him and turns off the call and leaves from before Tiara.
Seeing Gerald leave just like that, Tiara decided to follow him out of suspicion.
"Guys, I'll go to the toilet for a second." Tiara said, putting the juice back on the table and passing quickly without giving the opportunity for the six others to ask him.
Exiting the hall in a relaxed style so as not to attract the attention of the two doormen, Tiara finally managed to follow Gerald to a hotel room located not far from the event venue.
Gerald monitored his surroundings before finally entering the room making Tiara lightning-fast swipe behind the huge pillar of the hotel.
'Huh, shit! Crazy almost got caught. Not in vain join the family weekly study.' Inner Tiara while sighing deeply.
After confirming that Gerald had entered the room, Tiara came out of hiding and settled into the room.
It can be said that luck always comes between people who are good and right. Today Tiara is one of those people so luck comes to her.
Tiara found that the door of the room was not completely closed from the inside. So he took this opportunity to find out who Gerald was meeting with.
Tiara pushed the door a little slowly so as not to make any noise and took out a small camera from her bag and attached the camera from behind the door.
He then opened the pattern of his phone to an application and a new look appeared there shortly after the application was clicked.
Tiara took the headset out of her bag and put it into her ear to hear clearly what they were talking about. But Tiara's camera could not capture the figure already in the room because it was blocked by Gerald's body.
Tiara tried various ways. He went into the settings system and set the camera lens position to 360° only to get the face of the person but unfortunately his efforts still did not succeed.
'Damn it!' tiara shouted in her heart.
"Haha, since when did you start caring about such things?" A familiar female voice in Tiara's ear was heard from behind the headset.
"Look baby I'm jealous to see you two standing on stage, but I'm also your boyfriend." The next thing made Tiara surprised.
Conversation after conversation even to the other actions taken by the two people without realizing a camera was recording them.
'Haha so it's like this you're behind him? Ria, Ria, it seems like you have a lot to learn to judge someone. Unfortunately, victory is in my hands.' Inner Tiara with passion.
After recording everything they did, Tiara reached back into the room and released her camera and returned to the hall.
"Tiara, how long have you been going to the toilet?" Alda asked after seeing Tiara appear in the crowd.
"Sorry, the toilets nearby are full so I'm trying to find another one." Tiara.
"Hm worth it." Reply Lia.
"Let's have fun, enjoy the cake. Free stuff." Connect Abie.
"Hehe let's spend it. Who knows if their bills have swelled." Added Tiara. He wants to have fun before his birthday party becomes boisterous.
While enjoying the dish with her friends, soon Ria came and approached them with a waiter with a few glasses of juice on a tray held by the waiter.
"Hi, see you again. How do you like the party?" Ria asked arrogantly to Tiara and her friends.
Seeing the appearance of Ria in the midst of their calm, Lia, Alda and Abie immediately put on a swollen face.
'What does he like. If we knew this was your party from the beginning, we wouldn't have come here.' Alda sat in annoyance while plucking the cake from the table and finished it in one voraciously.
"Geez, girls eat it that way." Said Ria worried to see Alda's behavior.
"Why, trouble for you? If it's a problem because I ate the cake, it's okay. I'm throwing up here again, will you?" Sambar Alda after finishing his chew.
"Eh uh uh. really slovenly to be a person." Ria stopped Alda quickly making Tiara and the others who were already familiar with Alda's attitude laugh at him.
"Laugh what the hell are you guys? You poor people." Chirpe Ria.
"Heh Tiara, you can come wear a black dress like that. Do you think this is a grieving event?" Ria continued with a high voice inviting Luka to look coldly at him.
'Yes soon the show turned into a mourning event' Tiara answered him inwardly.
"Still mending have a Tiara dress instead of yours. The dress is red as a cougar auntie out there." Sambar Alda again saw Ria wearing a bright red sepaha dress with no arms.
"What did you say?"
"Have stopped!" Tiara. "Ria, where's your best friend?" Tiara asked not to see Erni with him.
"Why are you asking Erni? Erni is a gentle person unlike you who just pretend. So to bring Erni here to meet you guys afraid she'll get the virus pretending to be you again." Answer Ria.
Tiara smiled hearing every word that came out of Ria and then tried to ignore it.
"Where's your boyfriend, where's he disappearing?" Tiara asked again with a meaningful look.
"What do you mean, ask my girlfriend? Like?"
"Sorry has me more handsome and ethical than yours." Tiara, without realizing that his words had raised a big question mark among his friends.
Ria was shocked to hear Tiara's words. He did not expect Tiara to call Gerald an unethical person.
"You mean my girlfriend is unethical, is that it?"
"Yes. The proof is that she left her own show and disappeared just because of a call from a woman." Tiara's bait at Ria while grinning a little.
"Call from a woman? Mean you?" Ria became confused herself with the words of Tiara.
"Betul tuh Tiara said. Your boyfriend just received a phone call from the woman to go to the next room." Lia lures along without knowing the truth because she thinks Tiara is making Ria emotional.
"I heard it too. She called that girl, right?" Abie continued after seeing an annoyed expression coming from Ria's face.
"Yes I heard it too." Connect Alda.
"We are too." Reno added because he thought it was a fun thing.
"Dam. Don't lie to all of you, Gerald's not a striped-nose man." Hardik Ria's.
"Well, if you don't believe it, you are a fool. Not our business either." Sahut Alda's.
"Mm, Tiara then you'll show me where Reno met the woman?" Ria started thinking about carrying out her mission.
"okay." Tiara answered casually to surprise her friends including Luka, Reno and Saka who thought that everything was just their trick to make Ria upset.
"North,.." Alda wanted to stop him but Tiara stopped Alda.
After exiting the hall, Tiara plans to take Ria to the room where Gerald met the woman before she can prove the truth, someone came from behind them and hit hard on the nape of the tiara, causing him to fall to the floor and pass out in a short time.
"Take him to the prepared room." Ria's orders to a burly man.
"Good." The answer.
"Make sure the thugs are ready to prepare themselves because the dish has come." Ria said with a grin looking at Tiara lying helplessly on the floor.
