Marrying My Beloved's Killer

Marrying My Beloved's Killer
Chapter 5. Venus Cafe


Alfio Xander, a man who has a hobby of photography was very hit with the sad news he received. News of grief when he was reveling, celebrating the success of the photography exhibition he just finished his title in a country known as the Land of Uncle Sam. Without waiting any longer, after all his show business was done he rushed back to the Motherland.


What an irony, when he arrived in the Motherland he could find only a lump of earth that was still wet even though the flowers scattered on it had dried up. The final resting place of her beloved cousin Aneesa, the unfortunate woman who chose to end her life because of a broken heart. Heartbreak in a man who once helped her out of past traumas. Although it is difficult to believe, from the story that Alfio heard the man concluded that the one responsible for the choice of his cousin's sister was his lover, Noah Myles.


The anger in Alfio's heart was burning when he found a wedding invitation with the name of the bride and groom listed were Noah Myles and Seanna Filia. Alfio did not accept that Noah was happy while his cousin's sister, let alone to feel happy to see tomorrow can no longer. Alfio had made up his mind to make Noah feel the pain of losing a loved one, and his target was Seanna Filia.


That night at a cafe, Alfio meets someone he trusts enough to run an important assignment from him. “How? Is everything I asked you to get?”


“This is everything you asked for, boss.” The man with the fire tattoo on the back of his hand thrust out some sheets of file he had put in a brown envelope.


I can't wait for Alfio to immediately read the sheet per sheet all the information he requested. His forehead frowned when he found out that the girl named Seanna Filia was apparently very young. What's more the girl's life seems not as easy and not as beautiful as Alfio's shadow. There is doubt in Alfio's heart to involve the girl who from her photos alone looks very beautiful, but remember if Aneesa committed suicide the day after meeting the girl immediately Alfio's pity disappears.


I'm sorry sweet girl, but life has to be paid for with life. His inner.


“I have more tasks for you!” Tell him to a man named Roy.


“What is it, boss?” Roy eagerly asks what new task for him. Of all Roy clients, Alfio is the most royal client who can always add to his rupiah coffers.


“It looks like I will stay longer in the Homeland and I need busyness,” said Alfio.


“Having a cafe located close to the girl's campus, I think quite interesting.” A sly grin adorned the handsome face of the man. Without needing to explain more details to Roy, the man had understood that the beautiful girl he had been following for the last 3 days was the target of his boss.


Roy nodded, he already understood what he had to do. Unfortunately this beautiful girl, no matter what mistakes she made to have to deal with the Boss, her inner self.


......................


It only took Roy a week to prepare all the orders from Alfio. Cafe Venus is ready to start operating. The location is very strategic, opposite the best private campus in the city. Once again Alfio admired Roy's work, the man who became his confidant did not disappoint him.


Three days since Venus Cafe started operating. In accordance with the decoration and concept of food served, this cafe is crowded visited by students from the University of Cipta Bangsa. Students and students come and go, unfortunately, the cafe owner does not want to come.


Noah must be on his honeymoon with his wife. Laugh and enjoy the beautiful world that feels like both belong like another newlywed couple, inner Alfio.


He saw a photo of Sea on his phone. “If there was no grudge in my heart, I'm sure I would be interested in you. Unfortunately we have to meet at the wrong time and circumstance,” murmured.


He looked closely at the photo of Sea, strangely he never felt bored. The more he looked at it, the more he had the many questions he kept in his mind for the girl.


Today Alfio came to the cafe earlier than usual. He felt that today was his day. As the universe supported the man, Alfio accidentally saw a familiar car. A grin rose on Alfio's handsome face as he matched the vehicle number plate of the car in the photo with the car that had caught his attention.


Rushing he took out his cafe promotion leaflets that Roy had prepared long ago. That flyer will be Alfio's weapon. Walking casually as his eyes scanned the car, thankfully if he could see what was happening in the car. In order not to arouse suspicion, Alfio began giving promotional leaflets to some students and students who passed by.


Shortly from the car came down a beautiful woman or a very beautiful woman according to Alfio. The woman Alfio knew named Seanna was very attractive in her eyes, with a simple appearance and makeup but it was her attraction. Her beauty seemed natural, her smile looked so sincere, but one thing that caught Alfio's attention was the two beautiful neutrals the woman was glazed over as she stared at the car she was driving away from.


Is he sad? Ask Alfio inwardly. Alfio shook his head to wake himself up so as not to forget his goal of doing all this.


“Excuse me Miss,” exclaimed and managed to stop Sea's steps.


“Ya, what's up?”


“Previously introduce me Alfio,” his hand outstretched to invite Sea to meet.


“I Sea,” reply Sea gently. Don't forget Sea's sweet smile that made Alfio's heart pound.


“I'm the owner of the cafe across the street. Today is the opening day of my cafe, if there is time to stop by later,”.


“Alright Alfio, thank you for the offer.” Reply to Sea with a very sweet smile in Alfio's eyes.


“I'm waiting for you Sea, invite some of your friends.” Alfio tried to show his face, hoping that Sea's heart would be stirred and fulfill his invitation. “You know, my cafe has been open for a week unfortunately visitors are very quiet.” I made Sea feel bad to refuse.


“All right Al, I'll work it out. I will also take my best friend there,” said Sea.


......................


Sea's first day on campus with a new status invites a lot of temptations and jokes from friends and his two best friends, Phila and Tessa. Most of them tease Sea by asking how her first night with her husband had been.


Not knowing if every time it was teased like that, Sea's heart was as slashed as to whether it was possible for him to be able to feel what many people called the heaven of the world. Moreover, it is one of the worship that he and Noah should fulfill as a legal husband and wife in the eyes of law and religion.


“Stop teasing me, see ..” said Sea interrupts Phila's speech. Put the leaflet given by Alfio on the table.


“Cafe Venus? What's up with Cafe Venus?” chirping Tessa.


“Today the cafe opened, I met the owner. And he invited me to come to the opening ceremony of his cafe later this afternoon,” explained Sea.


“You met Handsome One? For what sake Sea, please don't lie!” Tessa, Sea's best friend who is famous as the girl who bar-bar looks very enthusiastic.


“Opening ceremony? Isn't the cafe open a few days ago?” ask Phila to comment.


“Phila baby, no matter when the cafe opens. It is up to the Handsome also when he wants to hold his opening event,” both hands Tessa cupped Phila's face because of her anxiety with her best friend.


“You know the rules that apply to handsome men?” Tessa Seru. “They are never wrong,” he added accompanied by laughter.


......................


Sea, Tessa, and Phila can only visit Venus cafes in the afternoon. The third plan to go to the cafe during lunch hour as they had planned, had to be pushed back a few hours because Sea who had to complete some campus tasks left behind.


Three beautiful girls, the prima donna of Cipta Bangsa University seemed to enter the Venus cafe and successfully attracted the attention of other visitors, especially men. The whispers of the students who were disappointed because Sea was married, greatly disturbed Sea's hearing. The woman scanned the entire corner of the cafe, looking for the man who this morning claimed to be the owner of the cafe.


Sea was made shocked as from behind a man patted her on the shoulder. “Sea, finally you came too,”. “You know I was worried, I thought you wouldn't come, “ he added with a glowing face.


“A-a-aku ..” Sea doesn't know what to answer.


What's wrong with her? Why wait for my arrival? What does he want from me? Inner Sea.
