"You're with family? a lover?" el asked, looking at Alana's face. I just realized that the girl's face was so attractive. She has known many beautiful women, models to artists who often wara-wiri on television, but Alana's face looks alluring with a natural and innocent aura of her face.
"Huh? Oh. with family" he said. Then cast a glance to his left, calming his heart thump reminded a glimpse of his status.
"There's rarely a young girl like you who wants to be invited to a boring party, filled with people whose age is far above you"
"I accompanied my brother" he said trying to take off one smile.
"Still in school or college?"
"schools. SMA"
"I'm the last kid, but I have a cousin who's still in high school. Look at that" said El pointing flickering lights in one tall building to resemble one star.
"Beautiful.." Alana stared in amazement. Many other lights there surrounded the light but the light was brighter. He wants to be like that light, have his own light. It is not always someone else's shadow.
"What's your favorite movie?"
"Mmmmmm-mom.. Cinderella" replied Alana quickly. That's all he's liked since he was a kid. In the past he had hoped to have a fate like Cinderella, having a prince who would take him out of grief and live happily. But as time went on she realized, it was just a fairy tale. No one would take her out of her current pain.
"Have you met your prince? or still waiting?" susul El leaned her body towards Alana.
Slowly the girl nodded. Confused what to answer. Meet maybe already. Because he deserves to be the prince of his dreams, but he is the one who is not suitable to play the role of Cinderella.
"Someday you will find it" El's voice sounded friendly and sincere in Alana's ear. The two look at each other. And then I was embarrassed.
For a moment Arun had to leave his place. Coupled with Wiga, his papa headed for a special room attended by several big businessmen in the country. Wiga takes Arun to meet a big boss who is looking for a visionary young entrepreneur. Wiga felt she needed to introduce Arun to the man.
"Arun, this is Mr. Sutiyoso, the owner of PT. Unilavar" said Wiga introduced men of descent who wear expensive suit stelan.
"I am Arun sir. Thank you for coming to my parents' show" Arun reached out to shake the big businessman's hand.
Stale bases are intertwined, then entered into a large-scale discussion of material. After getting an agreement, Arun bailed to the party room where he left Alana earlier.
He looked at all corners of the room with more and more invitations coming. But what was sought did not meet. His eyes could see Lily laughing happily among the socialite young mothers. The woman looked happy. For a moment Arun looked at Lily, the laughter and happy look that emanated on his face was just a fake.
How can a woman laugh at the one big lie she has told in front of so many people? But Arun chose not to ruin his wife's happiness. Arun has pity on Lily. Many times Arun said not to worry about the problem of children. Born inner Arun sincerely origin with Lily forever. But the woman actually put another woman in their household. So when Arun's heart and mind are divided on Alana, Lily is the cause.
Not finding Alana's whereabouts made Arun's heart unsettled. Anxious and worried about haunting him. Sometimes he did not think, why Alana as if so radar for him, can not be far from the girl in the slightest.
Arun kept going around looking. Reproach from people who know him just say hello or want to invite a conversation, only respond with a smile and hands raised. "Sorry, later yes" he said when someone he remembered working with him greeted Arun's attention. He has to find Alana first. As he grew upset, Arun saw Alana from the glass door to the ballroom side garden. The girl laughed.
Alana's laughter was so contagious that Arun smiled. But her smile faded when she saw a man sitting next to her. At once his anger also rose.
Alana hesitated, but a second later nodded. El seems like a good guy. Just this phone number. Even if it turns out to be annoying, Alana will block it.
Just finished typing his number on El's phone, both of them were surprised at the sudden appearance of a man in front of them. Alana's eyeballs rounded with awareness of Arun's presence.
"Why are you here?" hardiknya stared intently at Alana, arrogant and full of emotions felt gripping around them. To glance at El alone Arun is not willing.
"B-ang." replied Alana stuttering. Understand that the man who had just rebuked Alana was the girl's family, El who acted gentlemanly stood in front of Arun. She guessed it might have been the man's anger because El had Alana sneaking out of the party.
"I'm sorry, I invited Alana here to look fresh. Please don't be mad at him" El said respectfully. But Arun still did not turn away from Alana's face.
"Let's go home.." Arun forced Alana's wrist to make the girl moan in pain. Arun's grip is too strong, making Alana's skin flushed.
"Sick bang" she whimpered. But anger and jealousy had already covered up Arun's ratio. Still pulling forcibly Alana to be impressed dragging the girl.
"wait. You may be his brother, but you don't deserve to treat him like this. You are too rude to a woman especially her own sister" insisted El cut off Arun's steps. Now the two are facing each other in one point of view.
"Surge!!" salak Arun was full of emotions. Dare to stop his steps to bring Alana from there.
"I'm sorry, I can't let Alana go under such circumstances" El argued, remaining unmoved in her place.
"Who taught him what I deserved or didn't do? I take full responsibility for this girl" Arun snapped. Alana looked at El from behind Arun's steady back. Through his eyes gave a sign to step aside and let them pass.
El who saw that finally gave up, shifting his body so that the two could pass. Arun and Alana pass through the door but Arun does not take her back to the party, but to the emergency exit. Opening and sticking Alana's body on the wall.
"Don't test my patience Alana" he said flat but his eagle eyes locked on Alana's face.
"I don't know, what's wrong with me?" ask Alana scared.
"You still asking your fault? you sneaked out with another man. Are you so cheap that you accept every man?"
Regrets always come too late. That will be Arun later. Words that have been spoken cannot be taken back. A heart that has been hurt cannot forgive easily.
Arun's words rightly struck Alana's deepest heart. His self-esteem that is no longer there, is now increasingly trampled by the man by saying he is a cheap woman.
