Can It Be Us?
PERSUADED

Ashana, Andini, Alice and Ailee had not slept when the four men came home. They are now in the villa. Achazia and Cain were surprised that they had not fallen asleep at midnight.

"Why just got home?" Ask Andini to Abercio.

Abercio glanced at the silent Achazia. "We had a little business earlier."

"Awhile? You're gone for seven hours!" Andini.

"All right, I'm sorry." Abercio.

Ashana looked at the silent Achazia. He touched the hand of Achazia sitting next to him. "Why? What was? What business has you had to take care of him for so long?"

Achazia still showed a flat face. He looked at Ashana. A faint smile came out. "That's not important."

"If it doesn't matter why you take care of it, sister?" Said Alice.

Achazia exhaled. "You don't need to know. This has nothing to do with you guys anyway." Achazia said, keeping everything quiet.

Ashana cleared her throat after a few seconds with no sound. "I'll go to the room first." Ashana then got up and went to the room.

Andini got up when Ashana had reached the door of her room. "Me too, I'm sleepy." Andini and Alice and Ailee.

Abercio exhaled. The man leaned his body. "Do they have to know?"

Adrian shaking. "No, they can't know." Said the man after being silent for quite a while.

Abqari. "Yes, they can't know." Said the man.

Abercio nodded his head. "Alright then, I'll go to persuade Andini." The man got up and went into Andini's room.

Andini who heard the door open turned her head. Now he was looking at the view from the window. When he found out he was Abercio, he refocused his eyes on the scene outside.

"Would you like to come here?" Andinu asked without looking at Abercio.

Abercio is right behind Andini. "You said you were sleepy. So why not sleep?" Ask Abercio.

"Cursed it's suddenly gone." It was Andini who made Abercio laugh.

"You're so funny."

Andini did not answer. Made Abercio hug her from behind. Andini just shut up. Not fighting, not retaliating.

"You why?" Ask Abercio.

"Why are you asking? Why me?" Ask Andini.

"You just shut up."

"What if I just shut up?"

Abercio sighed. He should be able to persuade Andini. "Wanna drink some hot chocolate while you see the view outside?" Tawar Abercio's. "You're not sleepy yet, are you?" Abercio.

Andini shakes. "Yet. All right, I'll take your offer." Andinu's words made Abercio smile.

"I'll make it a minute."

When Abercio left, Andini chose to go to the balcony first. While waiting for Abercio, he stared at the stars that were lying in the sky. His smile was suddenly engraved upon realizing how beautiful the stars that adorned the sky were.

"I'm coming" Andini looked back. Abercio returned with two cups of hot chocolate.

"This is for you." After giving it to Andini, Abercio sat down.

"The stars are beautiful."

"Yes,"

Abercio looked at Andini who was also staring at the sky. "Beautiful, like you."

Andini chuckles. "I didn't forget that you're a land crocodile."

Now changed Abercio who laughed. "I'm serious."

"I know, I'm beautiful, you don't have to move."

"Baiklaaaah," Abercio sipped his hot chocolate.

"You know what?"

"What?"

"Why did I fall in love with you?"

"What?" Andini looked at Abercio.

"Because I don't know either." Replied Abercio who ended with a ruckus.

Andini smiled. "You don't need to tell him if you don't know."

"I want to know. How can you like me?"

"I won't say it."

"Why?"

Abercio. "We are the same."

"Oh yeah, by the way, where do you want to go tomorrow?" Ask Abercio.

"I thought you guys planned where you were going."

Andini shakes. "No, we didn't plan anything, we were busy waiting for you guys to come home. Whatever you want to go where. I'll just come along."

"You've been here before?" Ask Abercio.

Andini nodded. "This is the third time I've been here."

"I'm not surprised because you're from a rich family."

"Yes, I admit it, but I hate it too. You know what my reasons are for working for Achazia's company."

Abercio nodded his head. "Mh.. Andini, I want to ask."

"What mean?"

"If you were to be betrothed, would you accept the match or would you choose your own love?" Ask Abercio.

"What are you asking? Yes, I will choose my own love. Who else would they dare to organize me? I don't like my life being set up, and it's gonna be like that anytime."

Abercio smile. "Good,"

"Why did you suddenly ask that?"

"No, it's okay."

"How is that going to happen to you?"

"What?"

"What if you're the one getting married?I wasn't. Will you choose to obey or choose me?"

Abercio pinched Andini's cheek. Not hard, but able to make Andini grimace. "Why are you? Suddenly pinched me."

"It's okay. You're a freak. Of course I'll choose you. I got you anyway it's hard."

Andini smiled. "Goodoo. Besides, I'm free to choose you, but if you're the one getting married, you're choosing to get married. No matter how hard I fight, I will still lose." Andini.

"Why are rich people like that?" Andini asked inexhaustible with the thoughts of the rich.

"What's in their brains is just business, business and business. It doesn't matter if your child doesn't love that person or not. They don't care. It sucks." It was Andini who made Abercio laugh. Andini has a characteristic when speaking. And according to Abercio it was adorable.

"Well, if that really happens, you'll have to fight with me."

Andini smiled. "Of course." He held Abercio's hand on the table.

"Oh yeah, Andini."

"What's wrong?"

Abercio looked at Andini. The man moved his face. Made Andini turn her face back. "What do you want?"

Abercio laughs. "No, no. It's got something in your eye."

"What's? Try to get it." Andini advances her face and--

Cup.

Andini widened her eyes, while Abercio sat back down like he had done nothing.

Andini. "You!"

Abercio laughs. "What?"

"It sucks!"

Abercio laughed again. He looked at Andini who was now touching his own lips. "What are you doing? Want me to kiss your lips again?"

"You! You want me to hit?!"

Abercio laughs. "No, no. Forgive the Queen."

Andini folded both her hands. In his heart he was very happy. He wanted to scream but it was impossible.

"It's night. I'm going to sleep." Andini. He got up and pulled Abercio's hand to get up.

"You're gonna kick me out?"

Andini nodded. "Yes, let's get out." Andini encouraged Abercio to come out.

"A minute, a minute." Abercio held the door open.

"I love you." Abercio then closed the door to Andini's room.

Andini who was still staring at the door immediately realized when the door was closed. With a clenched hand the woman struck the wind before him. "Abercio si!!"
