Arka whispered something in Elena's ear. "I hope you like my surprises?"
"Why are you doing this?" ask Elena.
"There's no excuse!" After that Arka released her embrace from Elena.
All of that was clearly visible in Merrik's eyes, he tried to hold back his anger, not because the company was given to Elena but because Arka embraced Elena affectionately, he wanted to go on stage and punch Arka's sinless face. He clasped tightly onto the glass in his hand, chugging at its contents to ease his anger.
Elena and Arka were again preoccupied with new product launch activities, the introduction of a new CEO and all of that was recorded by the media.
Elsewhere, Amel stared at the television screen in front of him. Trying to figure out what really happened, which he knew El Sunshine was Merrik's company. He's sure this has something to do with Merrik. She turned off the television channel, tried to call her husband to ask him what really happened.
...***...
The new product launch event finished smoothly, the employees congratulated Elena. "I don't think you're the boss now!" Daniar.
"I didn't expect to be the same as you, either" Elena replied.
"Sir Arka turned out to love you so much, she even gave the company to you."
Elena just smiled at Daniar's words. "Are you ready?" ask Arka who knows when she's behind Elena.
"Now?" ask Elena.
"certain."
Elena and Arka left the location, with amazed gazes from the employees. They looked at a very compatible couple.
"Ah, it's lucky that Eleanor can get Mr. Arka!" said a co-worker who was next to Daniar.
"Yes, he's very lucky" Daniar replied.
"Great harmony with them!"
"So sweet."
"Hopefully until the guarantee."
"Surely Mr. Arka loved Eleanor very much!"
The whispers of the employees were heard in Merrik's ears, the heat coming to his heart. Everyone prayed for Elena and Arka. Unlike her old self when she was with Elena, there was only scorn she received.
Merrik came out of the building, he had not found Elena and Arka. "Where are they?" merrik muttered.
Arka takes Elena somewhere, she invites her to the beach. Elena was amazed by the sight before her. A table by the beach with various decorations. "What does all this mean?" elena asked confusedly.
Arka laughed. "You take it easy, I'm not going to propose!" Arka pulled the chair to have Elena sit down. "I brought you here because I prepared all this to propose to you, but it's not going to happen. We'll just have dinner here, tomorrow afternoon I'll go to Australia."
"You wanna stay there?"
"See, my father and your father are from there, even if living there is no problem. Who knows if there's green-eyed bule in there!" arka said with a crisp smile despite the bitter in her heart.
"May you get the woman you love."
Arka smiled. "Yes, hopefully. I'm going to find a Caucasian woman whose love is bigger than mine and who doesn't want my love to be bigger than her."
"Why?" elena asked confusedly.
"Because I want a bule-faced kid. Let Mistress Esti be happy to have a grandchild!"
Elena and Arka laughed together. "You still believe that myth!"
After laughing, they fell silent. "I'll finish the match before I leave. I'll face your parents."
"Arka, thank you."
They enjoy the dishes available, the atmosphere is romantic but not so with their relationship. Arka wants to spend more time with Elena today. "El, will you watch a movie with me tonight?" pinta Archa's. She never dated, wanting to try what people often do.
Elena looked at the watch in her hand, already showing at 20:30 she did not feel good about rejecting Arka's request, the man in front of her was already very good to her especially tomorrow she was going to leave. "All right, but it's been quite a night."
"We can watch at 21:45 how?" biker Arka's.
"All right."
They went to the nearest mall, Arka lined up to buy tickets, he could have bought online but canceled. While queuing for tickets, Elena's phone rang, a call from Merrik. "Sorry, I'll pick up the phone first."
After asking for permission, he picked up Merrik's phone. "Hallo."
"Where are you?" ask Merrik without a stale base.
"I'm with Arka, I want to see a movie first."
"What are you doing with him for?" asked Merrik with a high tone.
"I'll explain later, after watching I'll go home. Yes already!" Elena hung up the phone and walked over to Arka again.
They go into the theater room with popcorn and also soft drinks in his hands, they watch comedy films, Arka deliberately chose funny films to entertain himself. They enjoyed the movie, they were like friends.
After the movie ended at 24:00 they got out of the theater room and headed to the basement to pick up a car, because the mall was closed, the store line was closed, there were some workers at night. There was a shop being renovated, when Elena and Arka passed by the store suddenly there was a builder passing by carrying a trolley carrying wood, wheels were released, and the trolley was not there, the builder couldn't balance the load and the trolley came off and a wood with a nail struck Elena's foot.
"Are you okay?" tanya Arka looks at Elena's foot that was hit by a nail scratch.
"It's okay." Elena saw a little blood on her calf, today Elena used a skirt to look her calf stained with her own blood.
Arka takes Elena to her apartment because Elena refuses to be taken to the hospital. They went into the apartment.
Merrik sees Arka's car coming into Elena's apartment. Yeah, he's waiting for Elena to come home.
"Do you have a medicine box?" ask Arka while she is in the apartment. Arka helps Elena treat the wound on Elena's leg.
After the treatment, Arka asked Elena for a drink and sat down on the sofa. "El, I'm taking a break for a while huh, my head's a little dizzy."
"Yes." Yeah." Elena wanted to refuse but she could not bear to see Arka who was suddenly dizzy.
Merrik is still faithfully waiting for Arka's car out of the apartment but has not been seen Arka's car leaving Elena's apartment, forty minutes passed but has not yet seen Arka's car out.
Merrik sent Elena a message.
Merrik: [Where are you?]
Elena : [I'm in the apartment]
Merrik : [Self?]
Elena : [Yes]
Merrik threw his phone. "Liar!" merrik said with anger. Merrik's thoughts floated everywhere, hesitating to enter or not remembering he himself could not give Elena an inner living.
Elena did not lie, right after Arka came out of her apartment unit, she got a message from Merrik.
