ARROGANT CEO IN LOVE
Happy Waiting for You (End )

For more than ten minutes in the middle of the journey, there was an extreme silence between Nora and Isaiah. Isaiah is the type of person who can't stand being quiet for that long. There's something strange about him. His lips smiled at the thought of something, which was what kept him from saying much.

Nora herself was thinking about how she wanted to say her admiration which she had been hiding to Isaiah. If he said it bluntly, it might not be the right time, which is why he prefers to be quiet. Maybe when he got home, he would tell his honesty to Isaiah.

Nora cleared her throat to fill the void.

"Is there a problem?" ask Isaiah.

Nora smiled slightly and shook her head. "How long are we gonna be here?"

Isaiah laughing. He thought Nora would say something more important. "Ehm .. about fifteen minutes. Are you impatient?"

"Can't wait?" Nora scrunched up next to her eyebrows.

"Yes .. can't wait to ..." suddenly Isaiah turned tense as if he had just mispronounced. Nora was curious because of her behavior.

"Can't wait to rest? I think so."

Isaiah turned his eyes. Small stirring.

Nora turned her eyes outwards. See the glittering city of Dubai. Suddenly he remembered the difficulties he had faced. No friends, no family, failed to marry, disappointed with Ravka, all that made Nora change in less than a month.

Nora is tired of expecting happiness. Every time he tried to search even if it was only as small as dust, he still did not find where it was.

"Please don't think about what I was talking about. I swear, it was unintentional," Isaiah said somewhat glancing towards Nora with a tense expression.

Nora shook her head. "I didn't think about that at all."

Isaiah. "Then?"

Nora smiled wryly, completely incompatible with the look of her eyes. "It's okay."

Isaiah tapped his shoulders. He knows what Nora is thinking. He knows everything, someone told him the last few days.

The vehicle arrived in front of Isaiah's house. The house that Nora first visited with Daren, a figure she still misses.

Nora hopes she'll meet Daren again. He wants to continue their marriage which was delayed. Nora regrets thinking about being with Ravka, but turns out the man forgot everything about their memories.

"Welcome. I have a surprise for you!" isaiah's words made Nora smile.

"Hey!" nora exclaimed before they reached the front corridor of the main door. "I want to say something."

Isaiah. Staring confusion. "Yes? You want me to drive you to find a place to live?"

Nora shook her head. "I .. I want to say that I like you. I mean, I'm happy to be your best friend."

Isaiah froze for a few seconds. Nora was afraid that Isaiah might have drawn the wrong conclusion.

"I mean, I admire you. Not like you .... I know you're not interested in a girl like me. Yeah, I don't know myself and ...."

"Wait!" sela Isaiah made Nora stop her sentence.

Nora looked tensely. His breath seemed to be choking. He was afraid of what Isaiah would say next.

Isaiah gulped. "Come here! Hugged me." His smile came up again. Both of his hands are outstretched.

Nora blinked twice, then realized Isaiah was not playing around. Isaiah really showed the kind smile he used to show. Nora hurriedly hugged Isaiah.

"You remember, I told you I had a surprise for you after I got there."

Nora looked at the astonishment. "What's that?"

Nora knitted her eyebrows.

"The company you work for, you don't know who it is?" isaiah asked with a mysterious expression.

Nora is getting confused. "What are you talking about?"

Isaiah raises his shoulders. Then he invited Nora to the main door.

As soon as the door opened, Nora found out what Isaiah meant by surprise. His feet suddenly stopped stepping and turned stiff like a stone. His body turned cold hot until he did not feel how fast his own heart was beating. His eyes caught the figure on the other end who was also looking towards him in the same way. He is Daren.

Nora blinked her eyes a few times. Then swallow the saliva. He still doubts if he still overslept on the plane and dreams of meeting Daren or if this is real.

"Dora!" Daren approached towards Nora with a serious face. He wore a casual outfit that was very different from his formal attire when he was a company owner in Indonesia.

So, Daren ran away from marriage to live here?

"You're mad at me?" that deep and firm voice made Nora's ears ring. "I'm sorry."

Nora realized her feet were resting on the earth. It's real, not a dream. If only this was a dream, he wanted to hug Daren before he woke up.

Nora ran towards Daren and hugged the man. He cries in Daren's chest and regrets ever wasting Daren, even making trouble with her.

"Sorry! I'm the one who wants to apologize. Ilove you. Ilove you. I should have told you a long time ago." Nora spoke in the middle of her stuffing.

Daren held Nora very tightly. Kiss the head of the girl.

"You know about Ravka, that's why you left the wedding. Yeah, right?" Nora looked at Daren with a pitiful expression. "You .. You shouldn't have left. You should have stayed with me."

"And Ravka forgot about you, that's why you're looking for me."

Nora hugged Daren again. "Everyone is angry. Everyone turned to hate me again."

"I know, that's why I want to be in charge now. I'll marry you here."

Nora stopped her stuffing. Staring into Daren's eyes that showed absolutely no lies.

"I'm serious, we're getting married here." Daren fused their foreheads. Cupped both of Nora's cheeks with her hands.

Nora turned towards Isaiah who was smiling from where he was standing. "I will be a witness" he said in a cheerful tone. It was completely unaffected by the dramatic happenings in front of him.

"Then, how's next? What about all the broken relationships in that house?"

"Collapse of relationships?" Daren. "No relationship is broken. We'll invite everyone here to attend the wedding."

Nora shook her head in frustration. "I don't want to wait any longer. I don't want any more bad things. We're getting married soon."

"Hey .. hey!" Daren tries to calm Nora down. "I've arranged everything since I learned from Oki that Ravka broke your heart. Everyone will come to see our wedding. You know, why did Isaiah ask you to come here? That was my plan to bring you here."

Nora glanced towards Isaiah who was turning his eyes. "Don't tell me you're pranking me."

Daren and Isaiah stared at each other, then chuckled. Nora breathed in emotion, before she switched to the former Nora again, Daren hurriedly kissed the girl until silence emerged.

Isaiah hurriedly turned his eyes. "I-I'll prepare a few things for your show!" isaiah shouted in an anxious tone. He stepped like a lizard down the wall to reach another room.

Daren took off her kiss. Staring seriously into Nora's eyes.

"I promise, from now on, there will be no one to separate us anymore" whispered Nora in Daren's ear.
