Finally today Devan managed to take Anna to school after getting permission from both Anna's parents. Despite obeying his parents' orders to leave with Devan, the girl appears cold during the trip. Devan who tried to melt the atmosphere was unable to make the girl who was now beside him open his voice easily. The girl turned her face to the window more often and daydreamed than listening to Devan's babbling.
Anna just got out of the car when they got in front of Anna's school. The girl did not say a word to Devan even to thank him for dropping her off. Devan could only sigh slowly as he looked at Anna's increasingly cold behavior towards him.
"Don't give up quickly Devan!" the young man muttered to himself.
Then he runs his car out of Anna's school yard. Later in the day he will return to pick up the girl home because Anna's parents have given him permission to take the girl if he has time.
"Eageries! you've got the green light from both your future in-laws.now just melt the ice princess's heart.." said Devan again while driving his car.
The smile could not be separated from the young man's lips. He had no idea that today was his lucky day. Anna's protective parents give her permission to approach their daughter. Of course Devan will not waste it, although later he had to spend time between his busy schedule as an artist in order to get closer to his girlfriend Anna.
While Anna seemed to be setting her foot weakly. Yes if at home he can be stiff and tough in front of his family but not here. Here he will be more able to show the side of his heart that is injured because none of his parents saw him. The other students did not notice it. Except Risa, the girl is now her best friend. Anna has also told about her relationship with the King and about the rejection of her parents.
At first Risa looked surprised when Anna said that she loved the adult man she often called her. And he realized that the man Anna was referring to was the man who had invited the girl to school. It was fitting that Anna's attitude looked so happy when the grown man picked her up. Although it looks complicated but Risa gives her support to Anna. After all, the King was single and had no blood relation with Anna, so they were legitimately in a relationship even though the age of the two was very far away.
The girl even felt that Anna's parents had been unfair to both of them. Though the man looks very caring for Anna and only because of their age difference Anna's parents separate the two.
"Anna... Why are you?" risa asked when she saw her best friend entering the class with shaky steps and a sad face.
"Same papa gave Devan's brother permission to approach me Ris.." Anna's fight was still with a sad face.
"When do you know who Devan's brother is, right?" connect the girl now with teary eyes.
Fortunately, their class is still quiet because some children who have left choose to sit in the front garden of their class.
"Is it just because the king's age makes him more worthless than a playboy like Devan's brother?" lamented Anna.
"Anna..." Risa could not say anything more.
She hugged Anna. The girl knew what Anna was feeling right now. Why is it only because of the age difference that both Anna's parents prefer Devan who is a female player over the King who is loyal and loved by their daughter.
"Calm down Anna. There must be a way out." said Risa finally.
"I will continue my plan Ris." said Anna as she calmed down.
"You mean?"
"Yes, I'm going to pursue a scholarship in the UK, no matter if I can get into Oxford or any other university there, the important thing is that I can get out of the country.." Anna said.
"Why didn't you choose America for where you went to college? not that it would be good because you can be closer to the king.." suggested Risa.
"I can't Risa. My parents will definitely keep me from going there..."
"So you really gave up on being with the King?" ask Risa.
"You're right Risa. because there's no way I'm going against my own parents. but with me going to England I can at least avoid the men who want to get close to me..." lang Anna's.
"Alright if it's your decision.I can only give my support to you." said Risa.
"Didn't you want to go with me Risa?" ask Anna who hopes that her best friend can go to college with her.
"You know my brain isn't as thin as Ann's.it's gonna be hard for me to get in there, especially Oxford University..."
"At least you can try it with me." - Anna.
Risa seemed to think for a moment. If she could qualify and enter Oxford with Anna then it would be an achievement for her family. Because it means if he is the first to enter the famous university in his family history.
"Of course Risa.." said Anna immediately hugged her best friend.
"Have... You don't cry anymore okay?"
"OK..."
Both of them smiled and immediately tidied up their seats because the bell for the start of the lesson had rang. And since then Anna has spent her time studying and studying. Whether at school or at home. He even avoided Devan several times who picked him up from school on the grounds of studying with Risa group. And that was entirely true since he had indeed studied together with Risa. Anna fulfilled her promise to guide her best friend in studying so that they could both be accepted at Oxford University. Although both will study in different majors. Because Risa is more interested in the field of law while Anna remains with her aspirations to become a doctor.
Anna's busyness was actually a form of her distraction from her pain and longing for the King. Even now, Anna's cell phone is still being held by her parents so that the girl can not contact the King at all. But Anna looks tough and still lives her days with positive activities that are learning. He did not even mention his desire to continue his education at Oxfort University to his parents. Let it be a surprise for them when he is really accepted at the university.
Devan who saw that Anna was busy studying and even had been like someone who was crazy learning made the young man feel that Anna was deliberately doing it to avoid him. Therefore, when he was going to attend the launch party of his latest film, he immediately asked permission from both Anna's parents to be able to invite the girl to attend with him. Mr. Bram and Mrs Sarah who also noticed that lately Anna has never stopped learning even just to have fun for a while immediately gave permission to Devan.
"Anna you go with Devan. You need to rest for a while, dear." persuaded lady Sarah.
"It's up to mama." said Anna coldly.
She no longer wants to argue with her parents. Lady Sarah breathed out slowly. He knew that his daughter still could not forget the King. But he was grateful that his daughter would obey his orders and also Mr. Bram not to have any more contact with the King.
"Then dress up the beautiful darling. Devan will soon pick you up.." tell lady Sarah.
Anna also immediately did the orders of her mother without speaking even though just replying to her mother's words. Seeing that, Lady Sarah sighed again. Her eldest daughter was now further away from her. He came out of Anna's room so she could prepare. Before long, the sound of cars entering the yard. It's certain that it was Devan who came to pick up Anna. After a brief stale, Devan waits for Anna in the living room. The young man looked stunned by the appearance of Anna wearing a trouser suit. The girl looked beautiful despite not wearing a party dress.
"Why don't you wear your dress, baby?" protesting mistress Sarah who thinks her daughter looks too relaxed to attend a party.
"If you don't like my appearance it's better that I don't come along." said Anna coldly.
"Eh ga pa-pa kok aunty. there are also many who wear clothes like Anna.." said Devan who did not want Anna to cancel going with him.
Lady Sarah could only sigh again when faced with Anna's resistance. The more days Anna's attitude is getting cold and does not want to give up, including her parents. Finally Devan and Anna were able to leave immediately despite the tension between the mother and child. Back during the trip to the venue Anna was always silent. Although Devan occasionally tries to open a conversation between the two. Although coming with Devan, in fact Anna is more alone when the party takes place. Because Devan is always mobbed by fans and also colleagues.
While Anna who does not like the crowd prefers to sit in the corner of the room. After serving his fans, Devan was able to approach Anna. The girl seemed to be very unhappy to be there.
"Do you want to go home now?" asked Devan who felt guilty for leaving Anna alone.
"Yes.." said Anna briefly.
Devan sighed softly and complied with Anna's request. He also invited the girl to say goodbye to his colleagues. After that they immediately headed to Devan's car in the parking lot. When the middle of the trip suddenly one of Devan's friends called and invited the man to come to the club to celebrate the launch of his latest film. Devan glanced at Anna who seemed indifferent when he heard Devan's conversation with his friend. Devan deliberately meloudspeaker his phone when receiving a call from his friend earlier.
Seeing Anna who was not disturbed when her friend invited her to the club Devan immediately agreed to his friend's invitation. Any more... Anna doesn't care what Devan does. The girl looks so cute. Therefore Devan took the initiative and took Anna there without asking for the girl's approval. When the car they were driving reached the front of the club, Anna protested.
"Why did you bring me here?" ketus tanyanya.
"Why? was it wrong to invite you to have fun? haven't you been 18? it's old enough to get in there Anna. After all we only attend my friend's invitation" said Devan.
Anna was silent and no longer denied. Two months ago, Anna was 18 years old. And his family accidentally made a surprise party for him. But all failed because that day Anna decided to stay at Risa's house rather than go home after school. The girl even stayed for two days at her best friend's house to not meet her family on her birthday. He said it would be painful to celebrate his 18th birthday without the presence of his beloved King.
It was after returning home from Risa's house that she was given a long lecture by her family for thwarting her own birthday party. But Anna answered her parents by saying that she didn't need a party because she didn't want it. At that time Devan also sent a gift to Anna because she could not come because she was busy with her work.
Now the two enter the club and Devan immediately looks for his friend. Bian was already there. He looks surprised when Devan manages to take Anna with him. But he can understand because he knows how Devan can act to fulfill his wish.
"Sit down, Ann." said Devan, who saw Anna standing next to their seat.
Lazily Anna sat herself beside Devan despite still being at a distance. Devan's friends offer both drinks. But Anna would not touch him at all. While Devan casually downed the drink that was proffered at him. Devan, upset by Anna's coldness, seems to have been unconcerned if Anna found out about her drinking habits. Anna was silent and just watching Devan and his friends.
For a moment they were seen drinking without caring about Anna. But suddenly there were other visitors who came to Anna and tried to invite the girl to dance but the girl immediately refused. Didn't accept the man's refusal to immediately pull Anna to the dance floor. But the commotion instantly ensues as Devan tries to defend Anna. The man even brought his friends to gang up on Devan.
