The residence of Mr. Glu. Lisa was sitting in front of the mirror in her room. His eyes looked puffy as he unceasingly let out tears. His fingers scrolled through one photo after another of his memories with Noah on the phone.
"It's hard to forget you uncle" Lisa said.
Before the Noah Family was declared bankrupt exactly nine years ago. Noah was 18 and Lisa was 10. Every afternoon I go to school. Noah often teaches additional tutoring to Lisa at home.
Noah is a good teacher and sister to Lisa.
Various lessons are taught by Noah so that the girl can get good grades at school. Love grows out of habit, as it portrays Lisa's feelings for Noah. Not only providing additional tutoring, Noah also often took her out to watch movies or just eat at the cafe. Things are often done together. Except sleeping together or going to the bathroom. Noah often stays at the Glu family's house.
At first Lisa only considered Noah like her own brother, and vice versa. A few months later, Noah and Lisa get engaged. There is no objection between the two, each family looks happy. Various plans have been designed in the brains of both families, planning to marry Lisa after graduating high school later.
Unfortunately, everything planned is not in line with destiny. A few years after his second engagement, Mr. Rui's family was declared bankrupt. Mr. Rui's company is losing massively. The development project failed, the housing he built in a complex suffered a landslide. Not only material losses, but there were fatalities in that event. Mr. Rui to sell all shares, even selling his company to Mr. Glu. That wasn't enough until he owed the bank and Lisa's family billions to compensate the victims.
"Uncle, you promised to marry me after school. In a few months I graduated, I want to collect your promise," Lisa said, wiping a picture of Noah.
It also appears in Lisa's brain to contact Noah, sending him many voicemails apologizing to Noah. Said he wanted to make friends with Noah.
"I'm sorry, Uncle. Our relationship is over, but at least we can still be friends."
"It's okay if you like Helen. Or you have already had a relationship with him. I just want to be your friend like you used to be, Uncle."
Multiple voice messages sent. But there is no reply.
"Uncle, reply to my message. Otherwise I'd rather just fuck myself."
Lisa sent out a video message repeatedly, which showed her pouring disinfectant liquid in a glass. In the video, Lisa writes a text message that she will be downing him in a moment if Noah does not reply to the message immediately.
Noah finally replies to Lisa's message. Noah says he wants to be friends, as long as Lisa doesn't bother him anymore and just acts normal.
"Are you and Helen dating?" Lisa sent another text message.
^^^"No!" reply Noah.^^^
"Didn't you say you had a boyfriend yesterday. Then who's your boyfriend now?"
^^^"Arabella," replied Noah briefly via text message.^^^

Elsewhere in Wiratama. During the day, all struggle with their respective jobs including Alvin and Aluna.
Alvin was busy next to the computer. Not long after, he received a message containing documents sent by his client. Alvin passes the document to Aluna to be copied by her, then orders Aluna to bring her a cup of coffee.
A few minutes later. Aluna came with a copy of the document and brought him a cup of hot coffee and put it on Alvin's desk.
"I've sent a reply message to Yu Company's email. The representative of Yu's company took a lunch together, while talking about the investment plan this afternoon. Some of the documents they sent I copied and meticulously," said Aluna standing in front of Alvin's desk.
"Although Yu's company suffered losses a few years ago due to a pandemic. But the ride-playing project they launched was very different from other rides. The uniqueness is in the decoration of the rides made with the rainbow theme. This is very nice. It seems to be able to attract visitors, especially children. And I've observed that the profits provided by the company are quite high and promising to the companies that worked with him before" Aluna explained.
Alvin slightly frowned, digesting Aluna's explanation while observing the growth charts of investments in computers. "So, what's your decision?" tanyanya asked for an opinion.
"We accept cooperation with Yu's company. On condition that they follow the rules of our game. I have made important points that will be discussed later in the day, including they have to compensate double if this project breaks up in the middle of the road" said Aluna.
Alvin smiled satisfied with Aluna's reply. Looking at Aluna's perspective, Alvin believes that she is not his wife. Their thinking is very different.
A few hours later.
"Director Alvin. The client was waiting downstairs," Sam's secretary told Alvin.
Hearing him Alvin immediately ended his activities and told Aluna to continue her work. Alvin plans to be accompanied by Sam's secretary to meet two clients below.
"All the client documents I've stored in the company's files," said Aluna entering Alvin's room.
"Thank you, Luna," said Alvin, he was getting ready to go down.
"Wait," said Aluna before Alvin came out.
Aluna approached Alvin and confirmed the position of his tie. "You have to look neat. Her clients are two beautiful and very sexy women. I'm sure you'll feel at home talking to them for a long time" Aluna said.
Before going upstairs, Aluna had a chance to meet with a client downstairs. The appearance and fashion that the client wore was a little open, such as deliberately using it to seduce Alvin. Actually there is an uncomfortable feeling to see the appearance of the client. But to look professional, Aluna tried to think positive.
"If the client is a girl, I'll just meet her with you" Alvin said.
"Alvin there's a lot of work I have to finish-"
Alvin immediately cut off Aluna's words. "Then I won't see him."
Aluna smiled. "All right!"
"Secretary Sam, continue my work. I'll meet him with my wife" orders Alvin.
"Okay, President."
Actually, there have been many female clients who met several times. Many of them deliberately seduce and even offer his body for free. Alvin was never affected.
"Alvin," call Aluna when they're in the elevator.
"Yes." Yeah."
"Who do you like better, I ... Luna?"
