I Don'T Want To Be Cinderella #1
55. Fairy Godmother, Queen Mother

Fairy Godmother, Queen Mother

“So she works at SUHO?”

“Iya.”

I told him about the incident last afternoon when I met Elvan and just found out that he was also part of MHG retail.

“I was absolutely wrong to have allowed you to Surabaya.”

“There is nothing wrong, after all I also never intentionally wanted to meet with him, had met also because accidentally during lunch.”

“And there will be many more other irregularities, considering you one building.”

I'm slicking my shoulders. Yes all this time we were in the same building, just because busy with work makes me never explore this big enough mall. My energy seems to have drained out in the office, so when I go home from work I will immediately go up without intending to go around even if it is just window shopping.

“Forget about him. My affair with him is over, and I don't want to spend my energy just thinking about unimportant things like my past story or your past story.”

Caraka smokes her cigarette, she is currently sitting on the balcony smoking while I sit on the sofa in front of the TV while cleaning my face using cotton that has been moistened by cleaning toner.

“I'll trust you.”

“I also.”

“But I don't trust the man.”

“I also don't trust your ex-lover.”

“Honey, I'm serious.”

“I'm also serious.”

I smiled looking at the face of Caraka who was looking at me seriously. Aah, she's so adorable when she's like that.

“Listen to me.” I now look at Caraka no less seriously. “You know that I am a very realistic person?” Caraka nodded while exhaling cigarette smoke. “And you think with my nature like that I will betray you with her who used to hurt me?” He looked at me and then sniffed his shoulder. “I'm not that stupid to waste a man who loves me for who you are to have an affair with a man who used to hurt me, just because of past memories, like I believe you even though I know for sure during my time in Surabaya not a few who try to approach you.”

Caraka was silent then smiled while nodding, making me smile. I don't know why he could be that scared I'm going back to Elvan, because it never took my mind to betray him with any man. What am I looking for again? All is in the person of the Caraka Continent, and among all the things that make me never let go is, because he accepts me and my family as they are, so is the Mahesa family who seems to not care about my family background.

And speaking of the Mahesa family, Saturday morning I was struck by a phone call from the Queen Mother telling me to come to the M hotel. Arriving at hotel M I was again surprised when I saw the King, Queen Mother and Caraka sitting while enjoying coffee and tea. Canapa Caraka not tell of his arrival today? He came here twice without telling me. Surely he will say .. surprise!!

But the surprise this time did not get there, they again surprised me by saying that today I will accompany them to a party invitation from the Haryanto group that will be held at the Haryanto residence this afternoon.

Day ... Yes afternoon! Which means I don't have time to prepare anything, including the clothes I'll wear later!

“Calm down, I've prepared everything for you,” said the Queen Mother casually while sipping her tea gracefully, different from me who seemed to lose a quarter of my life hearing every speech.

“This is arguably your introduction to our world. So prepare yourself well.”

How can I prepare myself if I only have less than 3 hours left!

“You will represent MHG retail because Candra can not attend,” said the King who made my life living ¾ is now reduced to ½.

“And of course as my future wife too.” Caraka said with a big smile that even made me want to stuff his mouth.

Oh God, if it's like this I need super strong immunity for today.

Hmmm .. This is what I need most, massaged by professionals. Back when I was working in hotels, I was always jealous of those who used hotel spa facilities. And now I feel it! And it feels really good, my nerves so calm make ¼ my life back again.

Not until there after spending time at the spa, Suri invited me into her hotel room which turned out to have been available a series of clothes that I had to try until finally got the word okay from the Queen Mother, and it made me have to change clothes several times until finally the word okay came out after I wore one of the world's famous designer floral dresses light blue motifs of white flowers with very material soft with a length slightly below the knee is very beautiful, honestly I also really like it because it looks simple and comfortable when worn.

Finished with clothes, high heel and white broken bag clutch that is very beautiful and elegant, continued with the MUA (Make up artist) who began to do wonders with my face.

“Bikin senatural possible, which can highlight her beauty,” order Queen Mother who is now being styled her hair after previously in make up.

“This is no need for special handling, Mom, her daughter is already beautiful just a little polish.”

To apply makeup takes less than 30 minutes, continued hair 30 minutes, and during that time I just resigned my face plastered with various kinds of makeup, make up, and my hair was pulled here and there until they both said.

“Completed!”

I stared at my own reflection. Make up perfectly looks natural, only confirmed in the eyes. My hair was curly down with the top braided to resemble a bando. I like it because it's not too much, it's still like me but a better version. You know what I mean, right? There are times when we look in the mirror and we feel that we are beautiful. Yeah, that's how I feel right now .. I feel this is my day! (It's my day!) and it successfully returned ¼ again my life, making me feel confident again.

“This will make you look perfect.”

The Queen Mother handed me a box of velvet that left me speechless when I opened it and looked at the contents. A set of diamond jewelry consisting of necklaces and earrings. Small diamond strands with white gold and the center is a flower-shaped diamond pendant that has the same design as the earrings.

Beautiful, really beautiful. I couldn't even blink for a moment with my mouth open. This is the prettiest necklace I've ever seen and I've held in person all this time, but.

“I can't accept it, Bu.” I closed the box again and handed it back to the Queen Mother who was standing before me.

“Mamah.” I looked at the distraught Queen Mother. “Call me, Mom, let alone in public. Understand?”

I was surprised to hear the request or rather the order of the Queen Mother this time, who finally inevitably made me nod (of course with a very happy feeling! Because that's the sign, he's already agreed 99.9 percent right?)

“Pahm .. Mah.” With great difficulty I finally managed to say ‘Mah’ (In fact it is not hard to be very just embarrassed, hehehe). “But I cannot accept this ... this is too much for me.”

The Queen Mother was silent looking into my eyes for a moment.

“You forgot that today you will be introduced as part of Mahesa?” I could only be silent hearing his question. “Didn't Caraka say that today he wants to introduce you as his future wife? So you have to look like part of Mahesa.”

I was getting quiet, not knowing what to say because I knew what the Queen Mother said was right, it was just. Maybe it's different if I'm legitimate to be Caraka's wife later, but now? Fiancee hasn't, how can I accept this much.

“Today I will wear it, but after the event is finished soon I will return it to Ib... Mamah.”

The Suri mother fell silent looking at me before finally nodding with a smile. “Now.” The queen mother took the necklace inside the box and then stood behind me. “We see if this suits you.”

After putting on the necklace and earrings to me, the Queen Mother stood up to judge me from top to bottom before a big smile finally adorned her graceful face.

“Perfect,” he said reminded one of the magicians of the homeland, maybe if the atmosphere is not serious like this I have laughed to hear it.

“Now you are ready.” I nodded in understanding. “I have given you ammunition today, but it all depends on you whether you will wear it well or let this ammunition just be empty casings.”

I nodded back in understanding, of course I won't waste it. My life has returned 100%, plus the ammunition that the Queen Mother gave me ready to fight anything.
