"What's my schedule today Andre?" bryan Alvaro Aditama, CEO of Aditama Group.
"This afternoon I had a meeting with Ceo Pardian Group, this afternoon I had a meeting with American fashion designers" replied the man dressed neatly next to Bryan.
"Exclude my schedule tonight!" his words to the man.
"Good president" he answered obediently.
A DUKK!
"Ouch!"
A running girl suddenly hit Bryan and fell in front of him.
"Why can there be a child alone here?" bryan asked, astonished to see a girl walking alone.
"It's like I hit a wall, really hard." The girl complains while holding her forehead.
"You're talking haphazardly, I'm not a wall! "Bryan was annoyed when the girl laid out her wall.
Why does this child look so familiar? have I ever met him.
Bryan looked at the girl in front of him carefully. From the head to the tip of his feet.
Andre Bryan's secretary helped the girl stand up. Soon, a grown woman came holding a boy's hand.
"Mama?" The girl ran over to the adult woman and the boy whose age did not look much different from her.
"Naina ! you brat, where have you been? mama and I have been looking for you since," said the boy irritatedly as he slapped Naina's hand.
"Sister, mama!" Naina hugged her mother and older brother, with a cheerful smile.
"Where have you been, baby, mama, y'all from earlier?" Alma hugged her daughter anxiously.
Deg, Bryan gasped to see the woman who was holding the two children.
The alma?
"Andre, what am I seeing this isn't a dream?" bryan asked in disbelief at what he saw in front of him.
"No sir, I also saw him "Andre was stunned to see the scenery in front of him. That's really Ms. Alma.
Is she really Alma? My alma? why did he bring 2 kids? who are those kids?
"Sir, if I may comment a little. The boy who was with Ms. Alma, was very similar to the father!" Andre looked towards the boy next to Alma.
"You're right Andre." Bryan confirmed the words of his secretary.
The woman who left me for 6 years, the one I've been looking for all this time. He, appeared in front of me today and brought two children.
Bryan ran over to Alma and the two children. His heart was pounding when he saw the woman he loved was in his presence. Bryan held Alma's hand and looked at Alma longingly.
"Almahyra !"
"Bryan?"
Alma was also no less surprised by Bryan who saw him. The woman was stunned to see the man in front of her.
They looked at each other, the two children looked at Alma and Bryan in confusion and wonder.
"Ma, who is he? why does he look like a sister?" naina said with her innocent face.
"Naina, you don't talk carelessly. Where in the world is as handsome as I am" said the boy confidently.
"Like her we have a lot to talk about Alma" Bryan said firmly.
"I have nothing to talk about with you. I don't know you either! " said Alma formally with a slightly sarcastic tone.
The boy sees Bryan, admitting that Bryan does look a bit like him. But, how can it be?
The woman brushed off Bryan's hand with eyes full of annoyance. The two children by their side were confused to see him.
This man, who has desecrated my loyalty and my chastity. Why did it appear in front of me? why do we have to meet again? I should never have given my heart to you, because in the end I was the one who was hurt.

7 Years ago
The wedding day should be a happy day for everyone who is going to do it.
However, like this is different from what will be experienced by Almahyra, a girl from ordinary circles, a 7th semester student majoring in office administration, who will be, who will marry because of the arranged marriage by their parents. The girl, who was about 165 cm tall, had a petite face, a sharp nose, white skin, black hair, long to her waist, her eyeballs were light brown.
The 20-year-old girl will marry a man 8 years her senior, Bryan Alvaro Aditama, CEO of Aditama Group. The handsome man of the crossbreed, has a height of 180 cm like a model, white skin, a sharp nose, a stocky body. Anyone who saw her would definitely be fascinated by her good looks.
Before the wedding ceremony was to be held, Bryan met Alma who attacked sitting in the guarantee, there is where usually the bride will sit.
When he saw Bryan in front of him, Alma immediately moved from his seat, he was a little surprised when he saw the burly man in front of him wearing a white suit, Alma acknowledged the good looks of the man in front of her, of course in her heart.
Bryan was similarly shocked, only that he could keep the calm on his face.
Seeing her wearing a dress like this, it felt strange as well. Because I used to see him wearing casual clothes and he was seen as a village before, Brian said in his heart, while looking at Alma from top to bottom.
" Bryan sir, what's up here?" alma asked hesitantly, as her girl was nervous.
" Can't I see my bride?" bryan's tone sounded sarcastic, he didn't even smile at all.
" I'm sorry sir "Alma is down
" You remember not our deal? do I always have to remind you?"
" Agreement?" Alma slightly raised her head. Alma was stunned to see Bryan was already standing close in front of her. " Mr. Bryan.."
Without a doubt Bryan held the hip of his future wife. Making their faces close together, Alma was stunned. Both eyes were round looking at Bryan's face.
" Even if you've only been my wife for 3 years, remember that. You bear the name Bryan Alvaro aditama. Then you must act like the wife of the Aditama family. Understood?"
Bryan raised Alma's chin, his words sounding cold, not to mention his face looking flat.
Those cold words were so piercing for Alma who had never met anyone as cold and fierce as Bryan. This was the first time he had met a man like Bryan, his face alone was handsome, but his attitude was completely unpredictable. What is clear, she heard from gossip, if her future husband is a playboy who likes to play women.
Bryan pushes Alma, the girl almost falls. Fortunately, Alma was able to maintain her balance well. Bryan looked cynical as he looked at his future wife, clearly there was no love between them. And so did Alma. Alma only runs Bryan's grandfather's mandate, that one of Aditama's children has been betrothed to Almahyra, the grandson of Bryan's grandfather's best friend.
And Bryan is the only grandson of the Aditama family. She is the one who should marry Alma. It does not matter for Alma who has to marry someone because Alma is a child who is obedient to both parents.
For 3 years, I have to live with this cold guy? can I?
" Do you look around? do you understand it or not?" asked Bryan cynically
I look around because I have eyes. Basic sucks. Of course these words were only spoken by Alma in his heart.
" In front of the crowd don't call me father, but brother. Especially in front of grandfather, we have to act as well as possible. "
Very amused, should I call him brother? om kali is not a sister.
Alma rolled her eyes, she was lazy to listen to the lecture from Bryan. But if the matter is about Bryan's grandfather or Bryan's parents, Alma always complies without refuting. Unlike Bryan, he was the type of dissident child. The question is how can the dissident Bryan agree to marry Alma?
If not for being threatened will not be given an inheritance, I would marry this village boy.Inner Bryan upset himself.
" Yes I understand sir. "
" Yes, you must obey. "
The cruel tyranny.
" Oh yes sir, how do I look? am I not going to embarrass you?" Alma smiled as if hoping to be praised by Bryan
" Beautiful "
" I'm pretty? really true?" Alma was pleased, the first time she received praise from Bryan. Because during his apprenticeship and work in Aditama's office, he never heard Bryan praise anyone else.
" PFutt's.. I'm not praising your face or your body. You're not pretty at all, your dress is pretty "Bryan laughs mocking Alma.
" W-what?" Alma looks upset with her future husband.
Is he laughing? what's in mocking me? God is really unfair huh, his face was still handsome despite mocking others? Btw, is this the first time I've seen this tyranny laugh?
" Anyway, for the past 3 years I've been asking for her help. "
" Yes sir, I also ask for his help "Alma smiled kindly at Bryan.
" You are here apparently, soon the ceremony will begin" said a beautiful woman with her friendly face. Laura, Bryan's sister.
" Well, Al. This is the first time you see your sister in a dress, usually you like to wear jeans, it turns out you are beautiful too " Laura saw her sister-in-law from head to toe, she said, it seems that Laura is also amazed by the appearance of Alma wrapped in a white wedding dress.
" Hehe, brother mocked me huh?" Alma nyengir
" Scoff what? seriously, you are so beautiful Al. Isn't that Bryan?" Laura turned her eyes to Bryan.
Bryan muttered and said "beautiful "
" That's why Bryan also said you're beautiful "Laura smiled sincerely at Alma
" I'm not saying she's pretty, well "elak Bryan
Laura chuckled to herself at the behavior of her sister. In her heart she hopes that Bryan can change after marrying Alma. Laura hopes and believes in Alma, that Alma can bring change to Bryan. Eliminate the nickname of the jerk that is always attached to his sister.
" Hey, Bryan ! beware if you dare to hurt the heart of this brother's beloved sister. You died at the hands of brother ! " Laura threatens Bryan and holds Alma's shoulder.
" So now that brother's sister is him? not me?" ask Bryan
The brother's hustle ends upon the arrival of Delia (the mother of Bryan ) who informs him that the marriage between Bryan and Alma is about to begin.
Mr. Hardi, Bryan's grandfather, was the guardian to lead Alma on her wedding day. Alma lost both her parents when she was 16.
The wedding took place solemnly, and ended with a ring exchange procession. All the guests who were present congratulated with a boisterous applause. The wedding that was done with an outdoor theme was festive.
Mr. Hardi cried after the wedding, the old man cried happily because he had carried out the mandate of his deceased friend to marry their two grandchildren. Similarly, with his promise to his best friend, who is none other than Alma's grandfather.
The old man was grateful, still given life to see his granddaughter Bryan marry Alma. By bringing the same hope as Laura, Alma can change Bryan's attitude. And Bryan will change after marriage.
Bryan gets a lot of congratulations from his co-workers, while Bryan is busy in with the guests. Alma sat alone behind the armour, tired of continuing to shake hands with the guests. Moreover, by wearing a wedding dress that wavy on his body, making him angry.
" Huu.. Is a rich man's marriage like this? there are a lot of guests coming. " Alma sighed
While sitting down for a moment to relieve his fatigue, he thought of the big event that had just happened to him. In his heart there was a sense of gratitude of getting a good family-in-law, and he felt bad about getting a husband that was annoying and rude.
God, was my choice to get married wrong? this isn't wrong, is it? this is alm's mandate, grandfather. The choice of grandfather married right me and Grandpa Hardi's granddaughter must be a good choice right? Grandpa who's been up there I'm sorry, actually I'm not really married to that shitty tyranny, we're just married contractually. I sinned grandfather.
Alma repeatedly apologizes to her long-gone grandfather, as he is in a contract marriage with Bryan.
" you're here apparently, son "looks a smile on the wrinkled face of Mr. Hardi.
" Grandfather?" Alma immediately stood up when she saw Pak Hardi approaching her.
" Just sit down, son, grandfather wants to talk to you "Sir Hardi smiled kindly at his daughter-in-law's granddaughter.
" Grandfather also sat down, not good loh kek stood for long "Alma politely invited Pak Hardi to sit next to him.
Hardi sat next to Alma. The old man started talking to Alma. First of all he thanked Alma who had received the Aditama family as his family. Especially to marry Bryan.
" I should be grateful to Aditama's family. Especially to my grandfather, who has accepted me into the Aditama family. I am only an orphan, without parents without siblings, and I am not as rich as the Aditama family "
Alma is self-aware that socially, she should not be able to fit the criteria of a daughter-in-law of a large family, and conglomerates such as the Aditama family.
" Don't tell me so son, we're lucky that you're willing to marry Bryan. Please don't talk formally to grandfather huh, now grandfather is your family right?" Mr. Hardi smiled sincerely at Alma, as if he thought Alma was his own grandson.
How can a good man like Hardi's grandfather have a grandson like Bryan?
The grandfather tells Alma to be patient with all of Bryan's behavior. He also did not hesitate to say his hope to Alma so that Alma can take care of her grandchildren and direct her grandchildren in a better direction in terms of character.
" But cake, I can't. "
" you're his wife now, grandpa believes you can change Bryan. " Pak Hardi held the hand of his granddaughter-in-law, his eyes putting full hope on Alma
" I will try, cake "Alma can not bear to remove the smile on the face of the grandfather, if he says can not then Mr. Hardi will be sad. His little heart could not bear to see grandfather sad, he so remembered his own grandfather.
" You're here apparently, I've been looking for you since you knew !" bryan said snapping at Alma.
BUCK
The punch from the stick carried by Mr. Hardi landed on Bryan's wide back.
" Sick grandpa !"
" Bad boy ! how dare you snatch your wife's snaps !"
" I'm sorry, I'm tired again. So I unconsciously got angry. Alma dear, sorry yes "
In an instant Bryan's cold face turned into a sweet and friendly face. Accompanied by a smile on his lips. Alma held back a laugh, trying to maintain her composure. Alma did not expect that from Bryan's mouth which usually always sounded spicy could come out sweet and laughable words.
He must be laughing at me in his heart. Just watch out you kid.
Did I not hear wrong? this tyranny said, honey? say sorry? does the sun rise from the North?
