IVONA: 1World 2Names
Chapter.128 Vaya?

"Hi, Iv?" sapa Valia's. The woman who sat with Alexander.

"Hi" replied Ivona from the top of the stairs.

"You just woke up?" valia asked, which was answered with a flat smile by Ivona.

"I'm sorry if I interrupted your time but my uncle is very impatient to start a business with Alexander immediately. Because yesterday I couldn't meet Alexander so I came here early in the morning" Valia explained. Ivona didn't need any explanation from the woman.

"I promise I'll get my business done quickly so as not to bother you." Valia's eyes glanced at Ivona.

"Continue, you don't have to rush. I'll go back to my room" replied Ivona, then turn back to Alexander's room.

Although a little annoyed but Ivona tried to muffle it. His feelings have always disliked the woman named Valia. He did not know exactly where Valia had come from, but his premonition always rejected the woman's presence.

Is he jealous? I don't know.

"No, Ivona, it's not jealousy. You just don't like Valia" she denies.

Rather than thinking of Valia, Ivona would rather take a bath and refresh her tense nerves. Warm water with the aroma of therapy will make it more relaxed and refreshed.

Sure enough, after nearly an hour of soaking Ivona felt a freshness in her body. Ivona deliberately used Alexander's soap because she liked the man's scent. From perfumes, to shampoos, to soaps, Ivona likes.

Ivona came out of the bathroom with Alexander opening the door. The man gasped to see Ivona wrapped in a towel wrapped around her armpit.

"Sorry, I didn't know you were in the shower." Alexander went back out and closed the door. It was not the first time Alexander had seen Ivona finish bathing. In the past, when he brought Ivona from a mental institution, Alexander had seen her in a hotel. But there is something different about Ivona who used to be with the current one. Ivona's current status has changed. Therefore, Alexander preferred to look for safety. He also chose to go out.

Finished with a change of clothes, Ivona asked Alexander to drive her home to Iswara's family.

"Are you still angry?" alexander asked in between driving.

"No," replied Ivona straightforwardly.

"Then why are you in such a hurry to get home?"

"I have to prepare for my college."

Alexander nodded. He understood Ivona's intentions. "Seeing that your grandfather has recovered, that means you should go back to the villa and stay with me."

Ivona immediately turned her head, looking at Alexander who was focused on the bustling streets.

"Can't I stay with my family?"

"I'll be lonely without you."

Ivona was instantly speechless but in her heart she smiled with Alexander's words that were always like honey.

"You're not in?" ivona asked as they reached the Iswara mansion.

"No, just say my regards to your family. I'll go straight to the office."

Ivona nodded in understanding. "Alright, I'll go down first."

Ivona kissed Alexander on the cheek before coming out, then said, "Thank you." He held a locket around his neck.

Alexander could only smile as he rubbed the cheek that Ivona kissed. He looked out where Ivona was waving at him.

"You just got home?" ask Grandpa.

Ivona approached the old man. "I'm sorry Ivona, Kek, for not telling you."

"It's okay, grandpa believed in Alexander."

It turns out true Alexander's words, if the family will believe in the man.

"Where have you been with that guy, Iv?" ask Rio

"I went to Philip Island, and Alexander took me back to his villa" Ivona explained.

"Did Alexander give you that necklace?" lady Iswara asked after her gaze could not be separated from the expensive object hanging on Ivona's neck. Grandpa and Rio immediately followed what Ivona was wearing around her neck.

"Yes, Alexander gave it to me" Ivona replied honestly.

"Did that arrogant guy propose to you?" rio asked, as if interrogating.

"I-it's ____" Ivona was confused as to what to answer. He is not ready to be honest because the relationship has just been established.

"It has ... already, no matter whether Alexander proposed to Ivona or not. When the time comes, they will talk. Now let Ivona into her room" Grandpa Iswara saved Ivona from this uncomfortable situation.

Ivona could breathe a sigh of relief because she did not have to answer Rio—kak's first question. Not to miss the opportunity given by grandfather, Ivona immediately resigned and left the living room.

___________________

Ivona's days began to be preoccupied with lecture activities. He deliberately did not often meet with Alexander in order to be equally focused on what they should prioritize. For now, Ivona's focus is on college and Alexander's priority is work. A new project with Valia begins to work and Ivona doesn't want to interfere with it.

At the university where Ivona studied, not a few students came from G-school. Like William for example, the man was still one school with Ivona. Only his career is different. Almost every day Ivona met William. However, William's attitude has changed for Ivona. When they accidentally cross paths, William seems to be unfamiliar with Ivona. Let alone greeting, glancing at Ivona alone did not.

Fortunately Ivona didn't care about it. After all, he had preferred not to be close to anyone. But her heart betrayed her own, for now she accepted Alexander's love.

Time passes with Ivona's routine always the same. Wake up, go to college, go home, eat and go back to sleep. Not much different than in G-school, Ivona chose not to make many friends. The free time he had preferred he used to work with Marcus rather than go hang out with his friends.

Despite choosing not to have many friends, Ivona befriended two girls he knew when he first entered the campus. Her names are Lucia and Selena. The two women always persuaded Ivona to go have fun with them and were always rejected by Ivona

But this time, Ivona could not refuse because Lucia and Selena went straight to Iswara's family home. Grandpa urges Ivona to leave.

"Go, Iv. Your friends have come here to pick you up. It is not good to refuse a friend. After all you're young, enjoy your life and have fun." Grandpa said before Ivona joined Selena and Lucia.

"But you also have to take good care of yourself. You're an adult now, you have the right to decide things in your life without a share from us as parents. My message, think well of all the times you'll make a decision in your life, whatever it is. Consider the good and bad decisions that you will take, because you alone will bear the consequences of what you decide. Remember, something you've decided won't be able to replay. Therefore be careful in determining the path you decide."

A long message, but Ivona will always remember. Grandpa just wants the best for her. Do not see him regret later on for making a mistake in making a decision. Because regret is always behind. Time cannot be replayed to change reality.

This is where Ivona is today. In a bar. Ivona chose to sit at a table ordered by two of her friends. He looked from far away at Lucia and Selena who were wriggling her body on the disco floor.

Ivona's eyes kept going around watching every visitor in this bar. Suddenly his gaze fell on the girl who was just standing from the bar station, and staggered towards the disco floor. Her sexy clothes invited the eyes of hungry crocodiles. As if unconscious, the woman danced with excessive euphoria.

Ivona was curious about the face she saw. But he was sure that the woman was someone he knew. Ivona stood up to the woman who was still dancing.

"Vaya?" he stopped the woman's body movements.
