Theo asks Angel and Paula to wait in the living room in the left wing house building while he calls Dima.
Theo actually knows the plan that Dima will do in the future about the events of yesterday, only he feels bad if interfering in the affairs of children. He'll leave his business to Dima.
“Where's the file?” theo asked the waiter who greeted him.
“Mrs Wendy in Young Master Dima's room,” replied the waiter.
Theo nodded in understanding and continued his journey on the right wing of the building.
The Maxwell family home he built consisted of one main building with two left and right wings.
Right wing for the nuclear family and left wing for guests and servants. He wanted privacy for his family so he separated the core house from outsiders. Only a few servants could access the right wing.
The main building in the middle contains facilities that accommodate many people such as halls for parties, games, bars, and meeting places.
Theo rushed to Dima's room before going to his room. In the middle of the road, he meets Wendy.
“How are you, Darling?” greet Theo while hugging and kissing his wife's forehead with affection.
“Good. How was your day?”
“Everything is smooth ... What about Dima? How is he doing?”
“She's better.”
“Angel came to visit,” Theo said.
“I told her,” Wendy said as she took her husband to walk into their room to help her clean up and change clothes.
“Then what did he say?”
“Ya, he will meet her.”
“Good, I hope he becomes more mature.”
“Not an adult problem, Dima has suffered because of his feelings since childhood. From the beginning I have asked you to keep them away, but you are so stubborn,” Wendy said as she opened their room door. Even with a slight frown Wendy still helped her husband take off his suit and prepare the bathtub.
Unlike many other wealthy people, Theo did not like the many servants around him. So as much as possible Wendy will serve him.
“I don't want Dima to be as sorry as I am,” muttered Theo.
“Do you want to say that you regret being with me .. ” said Wendy sarcas.
“Of course not!” theo said quickly. Until now his wife still often felt their meeting was due to his escape. “I don't want any regret in Dima's heart. I want him to really give up after trying.”
“But because of you, our son must suffer with his love clapping one hand!”
“Who said clap one hand? You'll see in a few years your first daughter-in-law must be Dr. Angelina Dunyan.”
“That's because you love Angel more than Dima.”
“Who said I loved Angel more? I love both of them. I love Dima too, Angel. Are you sure you don't like Angel?”
Wendy grunts. Theo was right, he also liked Angel. He loved her like his own daughter. She, who desperately wants a daughter, has regarded Angel as her daughter. Sometimes he defends Angel more than Dima.
Wendy also realizes that Anna is also the same unfortunately for Dima as if Dima is his own biological son. Not only Dima but Daniel. His family and Anna's family are very close. But, as a mother, she did not want her son to be hurt any longer.
“Are you sure you will separate them?” ask Theo before entering the bathroom.
At first glance there was doubt flashed in Wendy's mind, but after seeing Dima yesterday, inevitably she nodded.
Theo nodded in understanding. “Whatever your decision, I will follow it. I hope it's the best for them.”
“Yes, I also wish the best for them.”
Wendy leaves her husband to see Angel and her friend.

Paula circulated her gaze in astonishment. Dima's house is very luxurious and large like a palace. He knew that Angel's house was also very luxurious, but still could not be compared with the luxury of Dima's house. Angel insisted on warning him about the parcel. Fortunately he listened to what Angel said and brought a parcel made by Aunt Anna. Speaking of the parcel, it seems he forgot to bring it.
“Angel .. ” call it.
“Ya.”
“It seems, I forgot about it.”
“What?”
“The brief was left behind in the car.”
“Oh! Let me take it.”
“Let me company ... ”
“No need. I'm used to it here. I can find his car quickly.”
“I'm sorry, I was too tense to forget about it.”
“Not a problem,” replied Angel. He also did not want to wait for Dima in worry. It's better for him to buy time.
Angel stopped his steps when he saw Dima. Dima was wearing a brown nightgown with a white sweater on it. Her hair is a little messy. Although his friend looked handsome as usual, but his face looked a little pale.
Dima also stopped his steps when he saw Angel. The girl looked at him with her beautiful blue eyes. Dima tightened his grip on the end of his sweater. Just a few days without seeing each other. He missed the girl, missed her so much. He wanted to run and hug her, but his promise to Angel that night forced him to hold back.
“How are you?” ask Angel to come closer.
Dima who was busy daydreaming looked surprised because he did not realize that Angel who had stopped his steps, turned out to have been quite close to him.
“I've been better.”
Angel shakes. He knew that Dima was not well. He dared to put his hand on Dima's forehead. But Dima's response hurt him. The man retreated his steps so that Angel's hand only hit empty air.
“You know, I'm not a kid anymore. You can't possibly check my temperature with just the palm of my hand. Next time you need to bring a stethoscope and thermometer, like a real doctor,” Dima replied. He tried to be funny but not funny at all. However, Angel is a medical student and she is quite experienced.
“Alright, I will prepare it next time,” said Angel Keki. He felt a little awkward. It felt like his conversation with Dima had become flat like never before. “I'm taking Paula. He feels guilty for asking you to look for me. He believes it's what makes you sick.”
Dima nodded, he already knew this information from his mother. “Then where are you going?” tanyakanya.
“I want to get a hand from my mama, was left in the car.”
“Is fruit pudding as usual?” ask Dima. He became enthusiastic when he heard Aunt Anna make him something. He always loved Aunt Anna's cooking.
“I don't know. I haven't seen it.”
“Let me accompany you.”
“You don't have to do it. You sit down and meet Paula. I won't be long,” Angel said. But he immediately fell silent when he saw Dima's disappointed face. So inevitably he let Dima follow him.
Dima follows Angel in silence, and so does Angel. Actually Angel feels awkward. Never once did their relationship feel this weird.
Shortly after picking up his parcel, Angel ventured to start the question.
“Are you really okay?”
“Ya,” Dima replied briefly. He was more busy looking at Angel than starting his conversation. He knew that after agreeing to his mother's advice, he would never see her again. He wanted to record it as much as possible.
Angel wore a black genie and a yellow t-shirt, her favorite color. The girl also wore a maroon jacket which was a couple jacket that Dima gave her during her holiday earlier in the year.
Angel and Dima have known each other since childhood. They used to shower and sleep together as children. But this time Angel can feel that their relationship is no longer the same. It will never be the same. Is it because they are adults? Or because of his rejection yesterday?
For God's sake! Angel wants Dima to be aware of her feelings. Is it a genuine feeling or just an obsession? But it seems that the price he has to pay is very expensive.
Angel shook her head, everything seemed untrue. And what the fuck is this awkward feeling?
Angel snorted loudly.
“Did something happen to you?” tanya Dima pretended that nothing had happened.
“I don't know if it's because you're sick or you're hiding something, which I obviously feel like you're getting really weird. It all feels awkward. Everything feels wrong.”
As the night breeze carried the fragrant roses scattered throughout the garden, Dima sighed trying to inhale the fragrant. His memory drifted as he whined at his mother to change the contents of his home garden.
“What should I do so that you understand my feelings,” Dima said sadly. He spread his gaze on the expanse of yellow roses, Angel's favorite flower.
Is it true that he is not that sincere? the Dima in the heart. He even changed the contents of his home garden to fit Angel's favorite flowers. Even though he knew his mother's favorite flower was a tulip, he did not change the contents of his garden to be like his mother's favorite. Does that prove that he's obsessed with Angel?
“You don't have to prove anything. I just don't have the same feelings. I'm sorry, I can't return your feelings,” Angel said. He looked straight at Dima as a sign of his earnestness.
Dima tried his luck once again, “I'm fine if you can't reply to him, but don't tell me to stay away.”
“If you are always near me, how can you stop? Please, Dima. Stop obsessing.”
“I sincerely love you ... ”
“If it wasn't me who saved you back then, would you still like me the same way and just as much?”
Dima. He never thought about it from this point of view. But no matter what happens, he believes his feelings remain the same.
“So set your feelings first, I want us to stay friends.”
“I will stay away .. ” said Dima finally.
“Hm,” there is a sense of disappointment in his heart to hear Dima's answer. But this was his decision so how else, he had to start getting used to it without Dima around him.
“Thank you for being with me all this time.”
“You say it like you're going away.”
Dima chose to switch the topic to avoid answering it, “We have to go back.”
“Are you going?”
“You told me to,” snorted Dima. His head started to turn. He expected a lot when Angel saw him. It never occurred to him if he got rejected once again.
“I ... ” Angel did not continue his words. He chose to end the conversation and return home. Same with Dima.
Dima felt his head start spinning so he staggered a little, but he still braced himself to come back.
