Love and Marriage Contract
Prejudice Bianca

Time passed, that day Bianca woke up earlier than usual. She accidentally wakes up early to wait for Arga in the living room.

After some time waiting Argapun looked down the stairs with his work clothes neat and carrying a briefcase in his right hand.

"Bianca, tumben once you've woken up!" said Arga who saw Bianca sitting on the living room sofa.

"I was waiting for you on purpose, are you okay?" reply Bianca at once asked and then moved from her seat.

"I'm fine, I'll find a way out with a clearer mind now" replied Arga.

"It's good then, but you shouldn't tell this to papa, maybe you can help your problem" Bianca said.

"No Bianca, to tell papa means I give up on this problem and give up will never be in the dictionary of my life" Arga replied.

"But you can't possibly let papa's company crumble, can you? didn't you tell me yourself that this problem could destroy papa's company!"

"I will try to find a way out with Daffa, you don't worry, you just need to keep this secret from mom and dad" Arga said.

"But if you and Daffa really have found a dead end asking papa for help is not the wrong thing Arga, because papa also has the right to know how the actual company is," said Bianca.

"I understand, but promise me Bianca never tell this matter to mom and dad before I decide to tell them!"

"Alright I understand," Bianca replied with a nod of her head.

"Good girl" said Arga by patting Bianca's head slowly and then continued his steps out of the house and drove his car towards the office.

Bianca again took herself to sit on the sofa, thinking about what she should have done to help Arga.

"I couldn't have told papa without Arga's knowledge, he would have been very angry and it could have destroyed his pride" Bianca said in her heart.

Bianca then recalled the man she met as she waited for Arga in the office.

"What does the man mean to disturb Arga's company? if it was only because of business problems why he did the thing that made his own company lose, "inner Bianca asked inwardly.

Bianca sighed harshly, she did not understand what kind of problem the Arga company was actually facing.

Either purely because of the business competition issue or there is another reason behind the problem, considering Bianca has a bad past with the man.

Bianca then moved from her seat, entered the room and grabbed her bag and cell phone.

"I have to see Lola" said Bianca and immediately took her step to meet Mr. Dodi.

"If it's what the man did because he still holds a grudge against me it means that the man's problem with me is not with Arga, let alone with the Arga family company, I can't let that grudge destroy Arga and his family" Bianca said

After some time on the way, Mr. Dodi finally stopped the car right in front of the Lola boarding house.

Bianca then got out of the car and immediately took her step towards Lola's boarding room and knocked on her door several times before the door opened.

"Bianca, you came here once without notifying me!" said Lola who was surprised to see Bianca standing in front of her room.

Bianca smiled and followed Lola's steps into the room.

"Is everything okay?" lola asked worried because it was not usual for Bianca to come without telling.

"Everything okay Lola, there's nothing you need to worry about" Bianca replied.

"Aahh yeah, didn't you just come home for a vacation, did you come here to give me some souvenirs?" lola asked at once.

"God I forgot to bring it, next time I'll come again and bring some souvenirs for you" Bianca replied.

"Hmmm... Then why are you suddenly here? did Arga do anything bad to you?" ask Lola.

"No Lola, I just want to come here, what about the interview you did? is there a result?" bianca replied asking, trying to divert the conversation.

"Living one more test after that I'll know if I pass or not" Lola replied.

"Hopefully you escaped Lola, but what about your parents? no one is forcing you to go home, right?"

"As long as I don't show myself on any social media I'm going to keep Bianca safe, they don't care about me at all unless I make a move like yesterday," lola replied with a sigh that sounded so heavy.

"I know it's not easy for you Lola, but believe me everything will be fine, I will always be there for you" Bianca said, hugging Lola.

"I know that, you are my best friend" Lola replied.

They then talk about things before Bianca asks what really made her come to Lola.

"Lola, do you remember the om-om I went to at the bar first?" ask Bianca.

"Yes, I remember, the one you said was being rude, wasn't it?" reply Lola.

"Yes, do you know who he really is?"

"I don't know anything about that flirtatious om-om, all I know is that he's just a money om-om who always wants to be accompanied by beautiful women while gambling at the bar, because he believes he will always get lucky if he is accompanied by beautiful women when he gambles," explained Lola.

"Why are you suddenly asking about it? do you want to scold me again for making you meet that flirtatious om-om?" lola asked.

"Actually just remembering it makes me very upset because it turns out he doesn't just want company, you know what I mean, right?" bianca Reply.

"I know, but I don't know if he's gonna do that to you, because my friend just said that Om needed a pretty girl just to be with him, if I knew he was going to be rude to you, I certainly wouldn't have asked you to come to him" Lola said.

"Forget it, but now I know who he is" Bianca said.

"Who is he and why did you find out about him?" ask Lola.

"I didn't find out about him, I just accidentally met him and it turns out he still recognizes me" Bianca explained.

"really? then what did he do to you, Bianca? he didn't do anything rude, did he?" ask Lola to worry.

"He greeted me and touched my chin, if only I had not been too surprised maybe I had already kicked him, but I was really very surprised then, he said, so for a while I just kept quiet and let her go" Bianca replied.

"How did you meet him Bianca and where did you meet him?" ask Lola curiously.

"In Arga's office? what does this have to do with price?" ask Lola.

"Before they didn't have any relationship but it looks like now they are rivals, the man turned out to be the CEO of the big company Lola," Bianca replied.

"I'd have guessed, if it wasn't for the officials, he'd be a successful businessman because he had a lot of money to spare, but why would he be in Arga's office if he was Arga's corporate rival?" ask Lola doesn't understand.

"There was a company problem involving the man, in essence the man managed to make the company of Arga's parents lose money," Bianca replied.

"Waaahhh seems like he's a bad guy" Lola said.

"But please don't say this to anyone Lola because Arga is still keeping it a secret from her parents, Arga and Daffa are still trying to solve the problem as soon as possible" Bianca said.

"I see, I also have no right to interfere in that matter" Lola replied.

Bianca was silent for a while, he thought about whether he should tell Lola about the man's voice that he thought was the same as the one he heard when he was being held or if he shouldn't have told Lola about it.

"I don't have to tell Lola, anyway it's just my prejudice and what I think is not necessarily true" Bianca said in her heart.

"Are you afraid she'll bother you, Bianca?" tanya Lola broke Bianca's daydream.

"There's something that makes me think too far about Lola" Bianca said.

"What do you mean?" ask Lola.

"The man's company suffered a lot of losses just to make Arga's parents' company lose, Arga doesn't even know what exactly the man meant to do that to Arga's company," Bianca said.

"Then what do you think of that?" ask Lola.

"Is it possible that the man still holds a grudge against me and deliberately does so only to avenge him?"

Lola was silent for a while, thinking about what Bianca had just told her.

"The company's problems aren't Bianca's small ones and it seems like what you're doing to her isn't a big deal, so what she's taking revenge on you for is risking her company's losses" Lola said.

"But at that moment he looked very angry at me, he even asked his men to chase me and get me back to him" Bianca replied.

"That's because she's ashamed of what you've done to her, let alone that you've done it in front of her opponent?"

Bianca nodded her head without saying anything.

"Revenge just because it seems so excessive, maybe there is something else that makes him want to destroy the company of Arga's parents" said Lola.

"Is it really like that? I would really feel so guilty if what he did was just to take revenge on me!"

"Don't think too much about Bianca, just trust Arga and Daffa, they can definitely solve this problem well" said Lola, holding Bianca's hand.

"Hopefully so," Bianca replied blankly, hoping that the problems Arga and Daffa were facing would soon be resolved.

**

Elsewhere, Arga was in his room with Daffa. They are busy thinking about various ways they can do to turn things around before the company really loses money.

Suddenly the door of Arga's room opened, Karina just walked into Arga's room.

"Karina, what are you doing here?" asked Arga in surprise.

"I'll give you one chance Arga, I hope you can use this opportunity well" Karina replied and walked over to Arga.

"What chance do you mean?" ask Arga not understand.

"Karina you better go, me and Arga are discussing important company matters and your whereabouts in

here it is very disturbing" said Daffa who stood before Karina, trying to get Karina out of the Arga room.

"Be quiet Daffa, no need to interfere, this is my problem with Arga!" karina said by encouraging Daffa to stay away from her.

Karina then immediately brought her steps closer to Arga and clasped Arga's hands tightly together.

"Take me out of here Arga, I beg you!" karina pleaded with Arga.

"What do you mean Karina? why are you suddenly like this?" ask Arga not understand.

"If you still love me prove it by going with me to leave this country, I don't care where you're going to take me, whether it's to America to Australia or anywhere as long as it's very far from here" Karina said.

"I don't understand why you're suddenly like this Karina, but it doesn't seem like the right time to talk about it, it's better now that you're home because there's something important I have to do with Daffa" Arga replied as she let go of Karina's hand.

"Is this a work issue? are you ignoring me just because of your work?" tanya because by taking her steps a little away from Arga.

"Karina, please don't be like this, I also have a problem that I have to solve, I have a big responsibility on the company I work for, me....."

"Alright, it seems like I've misunderstood you, I think you still want me, but it doesn't seem like it" Karina said, cutting off Arga's words.

"What do you really want Karina? I'll help you as much as I can if you have a problem you can't deal with on your own!"

"The only thing I want is to get out of here with you Arga, can't you do it with me?"

Arga let out a long sigh then took her steps closer to Karina and held onto both of Karina's shoulders.

"I'm sorry Karina, I can't just leave, I can't leave my responsibilities here" Arga said, staring into Karina's teary eyes.

"You really hurt me so much Arga, from the past until now it turns out you never changed, for you just the most important job!" karina said with tears that had dripped down her cheeks.

"I'm sorry Karina" Arga replied by removing her hands from Karina's shoulders.

Karina then ran out of Arga's room in tears. Not wanting to attract a lot of people, Karina walked quickly while lowering her head, which made her accidentally bump into a woman as she passed through the lobby.

Karina and the woman fell on the floor, but Karina immediately got up and left without seeing who the woman she hit.
