Because of Amanda

As soon as Tristan and Melly disappear from sight, Rani turns to Miko.

”Lo is no longer angry, is it the same as me?” ask Rani. She hasn't spoken to Miko since Miko scolded her on the phone.

”Depends you are still stubborn kayak yesterday or not,” said Miko.

”Gue is sometimes just the way it is,” said Rani. ”So if the bandel I kumat, lo maklumin aja yes.”

Miko grunting. ”Gue don't want maklumin.”

"Yes, it's up to you."

Most importantly, Rani, Miko did not open her mouth to Ghevin. Because he still wants to carry out his duties as a Ghevin spy, he still does not know why Martin and four members of his gang came to the abandoned factory full of thugs. Indeed only two thugs were seen by Rani, but he was sure there were still many more thugs inside the factory.

Speaking of Martin, Rani hadn't seen him since. Amanda invited a schoolmate, so Martin should have been invited.

”What do you see Martin?” ask Rani to Miko.

”Ngak,” gel Miko. ”Gue doesn't think he's coming. Somehow he knew Ghevin would be here.”

"It's good that Martin didn't come. He can't see me with Ghevin."

Ghevin comes to Rani and Miko not long after. He exchanged greetings for a moment with Miko, then the lighting in the ballroom began to dim—sign of the event will begin soon.

After the DJ performance, the MC went on stage and called Amanda. The door next to the stage opened, and from inside came Amanda. There was a sigh of admiration from the guests as soon as they saw Amanda's appearance.

Although not wanting to praise Amanda, but Rani admits, Amanda does look like a princess. Amanda wore a pink brocade dress with a rose petal-like bottom. Her hair is styled in a modern bun, and a small crown on her head.

Rani secretly glances at Ghevin, wanting to know his reaction. Ghevin's eyes never escaped Amanda. It's natural. There's no normal guy who wouldn't be stunned by Amanda's performance. Rani alone who had felt beautiful immediately felt mediocre. Amanda's beauty is hard to match.

Amanda's welcome words followed by greetings and a little story from her parents. Before this, Rani had only seen Amanda's parents through family photos displayed in the living room of her home.

At dinner, Amanda gets off the stage and mingles with the guests. Rani only eats alone with Ghevin, while Miko disappears—entah to hunt for other food, or find Melly back.

When he saw Rani and Ghevin, Amanda immediately approached them. A smile rose on his face, especially aimed at Ghevin.

"Happy birthday, Princess" Ghevin said after Amanda greeted them.

The princess? THE PRINCESS? Was that really Ghevin's beloved call to Amanda, or did he just call her that today because of Amanda's princess-like appearance?

"Thank you, Ghev,” Amanda replied, still with her smile.

It's Rani's turn. "Happy birthday", he said, with a little jutek. He even had to bite his tongue to prevent himself from cynically adding "Princess" at the end of his sentence.

"Thank you, Rani,” reply Amanda. His smile disappeared slightly due to Rani's shock. Then he quickly turned to Ghevin, and said, ”Ghev, come with me for a while yuk.”

Before Ghevin could answer, Rani had spoken up first. ”Emang you want to take him to where?” exacting. ”He'll be eating.”

Amanda stared at the plate of food in Ghevin's hand as if she had not noticed it before. ”Oh, yes already,” he told Ghevin. ”You finished your meal first.”

”Nothing,” said Ghevin, not caring about Rani's efforts to make her stay. ”I can continue eating later.”

Disappointed, Rani notices Ghevin putting his plate to a small table nearby, then walks away with Amanda.

"It's all because of Amanda. Of the many guests at the party, Ghevin still disturbed. Bummer."
