"Sheila.. Papa wants to talk to you."
Shilla scrunched her forehead, she had just come home and there was no welcome for her, which she saw was her Papa face that seemed to be holding back emotions.
Arshilla Putri Handodjo, a twenty-year-old girl who has just graduated from a top university in the city of Manchester, he deliberately went home faster because the Papa who ordered himself to quickly return to Indonesia besides that he himself was also impatient for a vacation to Bali and Lombok.
Shilla then followed her Papa's footsteps to the workspace, he just let the suitcase that had been dragged with difficulty into the house.
"What does Papa want to say?"
Shilla tried to look at Mr. Adrian's facial gestures carefully. He caught the Papa who actually looked back at him with a sad look.
"Papa why? Is there a problem?"
Hearing Shilla's question, Mr. Adrian just smiled knot, he knew, of his two most chatty daughters is Shilla, while the other daughter, namely Shilla's sister, named Ara is more quiet and indifferent.
"Papa will match you with one of the sons of the Chandradewantara family."
The words of Mr. Adrian successfully made both eyes Shilla glared even like he wanted to roll from his place.
"Papa please don't joke Pa! It's not funny!"
Shilla squinted his eyes at the Papa, he was sure the man nicknamed Papa just wanted to prank him.
"That's funny who Shilla is? Papa is not joking."
Shilla then shook her head, she then looked back at her Papa looking for lies between the corners of her Papa's eyes, but she did not find it.
"Why Pa? I'm still young Pa, still 20.. Be married? I haven't thought at all."
The girl dodged, as if she wanted to escape from this world. Where can his youth should be spent taking care of a husband who even he does not know the figure of his future husband.
"Pa. c'mon, getting married without love is a mirage.."
Shilla still hoped that Papa would listen to him this time.
"Fatamorgana, you think the lyrics are Shilla's?"
"Is it Pah?"
"You don't know, you said it."
Shilla then snorted in annoyance, it was certain that his return this time had something to do with an arranged marriage with one of the sons of the Chandradewantara family.
The issue has been heard by some media even the mother herself has told him that there will be an arranged marriage between herself and one of the sons of the Chandradewantara family.
"So that matchmaking issue is really Pah? Pah Shilla doesn't want to be in a soul mate. Is this the time of Siti Nurhaliza?"
"Nurbaya Shilla, not Nurhaliza ckckck."
Said Mama Rossa who had just come to bring tea and other snacks to accompany the conversation which is likely to be a little walk.
"Oiya, that's all.. Shilla does not agree with this matchmaking Pah. Shilla does not know the person, after all we can not match later. Besides why isn't Ara the one who's been betrothed she's older than me."
Said Shilla while flirting around looking for the person whose name he had mentioned earlier.
"Shilla, you know for yourself that your sister is a model, where she wants to obey Papah's will, let alone to get married in the near future."
The second daughter of the Handodjo family then looked into the eyes of the Papa without the slightest fear, he glared at his Papa to make Adrian a little trepidation.
Shilla whined like a child, she couldn't accept being betrothed to a man she didn't know.
"Sheila. Just this once you follow Papah's request!"
Adrian stared intently at Shilla, causing the girl to fall silent.
"But Shilla doesn't know Pah's guy."
"You can meet him, his name is Ayano Chandradewantara. They're planning to come here in the afternoon to get to know you even more."
Shilla immediately glared, how could his father make a decision without his knowledge.
"Whataa?? Pa... Why did Papah make the decision without involving me first?"
Shilla was disappointed in her Papa, she then walked with legs that he jerked like a raging toddler, Shilla immediately headed towards the room, not forgetting, he said, shilla slammed the door hard as a sign of her protest.
"Geez that kid really!"
Adrian stared at the departure of shilla with annoyance, somehow the two daughters were always difficult to arrange especially about a mate.
...****************...
In the room, Shilla was crying behind the door, for some reason her fate seemed so unlucky. Returning home to his destination for a vacation and enjoying life, eh is now forced to be betrothed to a man he did not know before.
"That's a damn shame! What if he turns out to be om om or he's ugly.."
Wiping his nose with Shilla's tissue, he grabbed his phone and found out more about Ayano Chandradewantara.
"Eh but ugly is okay, but if he's evil? A psycho? aghhhh."
Shilla then scrolled his social media, but he could not even find the name Ayano Chandradewantara. He then decided to open Wikipedia about the Chandradewantara family, he was then fixated on the number of children written in the family that only included two children.
The first child, Miyuki Chandradewantara, was married to a diamond mining businessman, while the second child, Delvano Chandradewantara, was unmarried and now in the United States for studying there.
"Why is there no Ayano name?"
Shilla twisted his brain, he was like a detective investigating a case, he was curious about Chandradewantara's son who was not mentioned in the search.
"Something must be wrong."
Shilla narrates alone, he must find out why Ayano's name seems to be removed from the world.
...****************...
In the afternoon, just as the Chandradewantara family was scheduled to visit Handodjo's residence, Shilla, who had been self-sufficient in such a way, stared at the window of his room, he rushed to it, not because she wanted to run away but she was more curious about her future husband, Ayano Chandradewantara. He also wanted to ask further why his name is not even in all internet search pages.
Shilla's gaze swept away all the guests who got down from the car. He looked at the middle-aged man and a woman who looked graceful.
Shilla believes the two men are Ayano's parents, Mr. Dewandaru Chandradewantara and his Japanese wife Mrs Mayu Watanabe.
"Where's Ayano?"
Mr. Adrian's daughter was still staring at the focus towards the guests who were present there, but he did not find Ayano's whereabouts. Although she does not know exactly the face of Ayano but according to the words of her mother, Miss Rosa, Ayano wore a black mask on her face.
Shilla observed the guests carefully, believing he was not wrong in making observations, if Ayano was not among the guests.
"Where are you Ayano? Why does your family seem to want to hide you from this world?"
