ARROGANT CEO IN LOVE

Nora could not hold back her sadness any longer. It was easy for people to force him to despair. They persuaded him to give up without any guilt. Don't they think who the only person Ravka has right now? That person was Nora.

Ravka doesn't have a father or a mother anymore. The person Ravka first wanted to see after she woke up from her coma had died, and Nora was the only person left. Then, how could Nora possibly give up? Every time Nora felt off guard because she never got the good news from the doctor, she then remembered it.

Nora lowered her head on Ravka's ice-cold arm. Nora used that palm to cupped her tear-streaked cheeks.

It's eleven o'clock at night, Nora just arrived in this room half an hour ago. She knew she shouldn't have left the house this late, but she couldn't bear to spill all her grief in front of Ravka. I wish Ravka would hear it.

Over time, Nora sleeps next to Ravka. His sadness led him to plunge freely into the dark world of dreams. Every time Nora blinked to change her position, she always remembered the good times with Ravka as well as her feelings that might have changed. Nora is still waiting for Ravka to wake up just because she wants to keep her promise to be with Ravka, not because she has the same feelings as five years ago.

"Dora!"

Nora felt a soft pat on her shoulder.

"Nora, hay!"

Nora blinked her eyes. His neck feels sore. His feet were stiff and cold. He realized, still sitting on a chair and leaning in the gurney to sleep all night. He looked to see who was greeting him.

"Good morning!" greet the sayup-sayup voice.

Nora yawned wide. Closing with the palm. He blinked his eyes a few times. His hazy eyes slowly saw a male figure standing beside him.

"Hey!" the figure waved his hand. Nora glimpsed Daren, but as her gaze grew clearer, she realized the figure was Isaiah.

"You slept all night here?" isaiah asked got a brief nod from Nora.

Isaiah turned to look at Ravka's face which was still tightly closed. Her mother's taste thrashed every time she saw the face covered with oxygen hose. I don't know what miracle the doctor did until he managed to turn on someone whose brain was no longer able to work alone.

"I've been looking for you at your house, but your brother says you're not home. I know you must be here."

Nora looked towards the window. The sun has appeared since then, visible from the intensity of its extraordinary bright light.

"Do you want to go home?" ask Nora. Looking at Isaiah's appearance from head to toe.

"One hundred! Your guess is right."

"really? You want to go home? Why rush?"

"I've finished my holiday in Indonesia, there's no reason to stay here."

"You can accompany me."

Isaiah chuckles amusedly. "If I had time."

Nora got up to hug Isaiah very tightly. "I'm gonna miss you so much."

"Come to Dubai."

Nora smile. "One day I'll come there." He was still staring unexpectedly. Isaiah was already a part of his life. He was also the only person who could hear him vent all along. After Isaiah left, he had to use a video call to vent and it was very uncomfortable.

"Eh ..," Nora stared hesitantly at Ravka as if asking for approval. He turned his shoulders and turned towards Isaiah again. "Of course."

Isaiah smiled with satisfaction.

Both walked out of the hospital. But when Nora gets to her car and gets ready to drive, her phone rings aloud. There have been seven missed calls from Andin since last night. Two missed calls from his mother, and a short message from his father. Nora stiffened instantly.

Father: Go home now!

"Oh no," cried Nora made Isaiah turn his head in wonder.

"What's going on?"

"I can't take you to the city because my family is looking for me."

Isaiah stared at the confusion. "Hm, okay."

Nora hastily tightened her seatbelt and pushed Isaiah's shoulder to get out of the car.

"Rilex, Nora. Don't mention it on the highway!"

"Yes" Nora said as she turned on the car's engine.

"Oh yeah, don't forget to call me if there's a problem!" isaiah's voice was still faintly heard in Nora's ears on the sidelines of the roar of the car.

Nora doesn't know what prompted her father to give her a message when the last time her father contacted her on social media was about a year ago when she was staying at Oki's house and was thought to have run away from home.

Nora was lucky she got home on time, although now her expression turned half-dead astonishment at the sight of two unidentified cars parked in front of her house. Nora tries to convince herself to think positively. He walked into the house in quiet steps.

The door was opened by Nora, the girl was already impatient to see who was coming to her house. Is it possible that Andin's future husband? Think Nora. Andin's marriage to her future husband has been determined by the date, and maybe this time they are having a family meeting. So, why did Nora have to be called home?

"That's it!" exclaiming Eza does not usually welcome Nora with a happy expression.

Nora stiffened on the spot when she saw who was sitting in the guest chair. DAren, and his parents? Nora's entire body suddenly shuddered, her heart pounding. His blood suddenly heated up seeing how all the attention was being paid to him.

What did the family do coming here? Nora hoped that what she thought was not right. He would rather know that their arrival here was to sue him from the video case. But when she saw the happy expression of her parents, Nora's mind shifted to another possibility.

"Here!" Andin pulled Nora's arm to sit by her side.

Nora stared at Daren who instantly turned her eyes. As it turned out, the real nightmare he was going to have today.

"We made a deal to get you both married!" clearly Eza made Nora at a loss for words. His body was squeezing, but he was still trying to sit up straight. His eyes turned soft, he did not dare to look anywhere or everyone would know he was in shock.

Maybe Nora could scream and yell like she did to Daren when Daren tried to come directly to her house, but she was currently together with both sides of the family.

"The date of the wedding has been determined, and will be done as soon as possible," continued Eza made the heart of Nora as if pierced. He immediately remembered his promise to Ravka.

Daren knows Nora wants to refuse. He felt guilty making Nora this sad, but there was nothing he could do but to shut up and let it all happen. Other than Daren, only Andin knew what Nora was feeling right now.
