Five years later...
Giga was still tidying herself up in her room when Sheila knocked on her son's door. Today is Carissa's birthday.
The Avicenna family must of course come to the birthday of Giga's little friend. Plus Avicenna Group has been working with Ford Company for many years.
Tok tok tok tok
"Darling, are you ready yet? It's seven o'clock at night, hurry up!" sheila shouted from outside Giga's room.
"Yes, mom!" sahut Giga from the room. "At the end of the day ready!"
Sheila was waiting in front of the room. He wanted to go in and dress his only son. But what to say, Giga always locked the door of his room tightly. Sheila could not force her son to open the door to her room.
There was the sound of the door creaking and the son appeared from his room. The handsome man still faithfully framed his face with glasses despite Nathan and Sheila offering treatment for the man's eyes many times.
"Hahah! Sweetheart! You're this! It's been a long time of dressing up just like this!" sheila said as she tidied the bow tie perched on Giga's neck.
"The wrong mother. Why also ask me to wear a suit. It was just Carissa's birthday party, Bun" Giga complained.
"Honey, this kind of birthday party is usually used by investors to approach business people. You know who your father and Carissa's father are? They rule the business world."
Giga rolled her eyes lazily.
"Already! C'mon fast! Your father's waiting downstairs! Do you know what he looks like if he's been waiting a long time?"
"Yes, Mother."
Sheila grabbed Giga by the hand and took him downstairs to the ground where Nathan was. It can be guessed if Nathan's eyes stared intently at the mother and child.
"How much longer do you want to dress up, huh?!" upset Nathan.
"Master Su! Don't bother with trivial things. Yes, let's go, "Sheila seduced by wiping her husband's chest.
And after that, during the trip to the Ford family residence, Nathan continued to grumble and talk at length. Various kinds of advice sentences that Nathan always issued to warn his son.
"You should remember, you are the future heir to the Avicenna Group, you should be able to manage your time well. You should be an example for all your employees later. And you have to..."
Giga was just a mangosteen hearing his father's babble. It has become a daily food for him to hear the father's nagging.
At the age of 17 and soon to graduate high school, Giga still continues to study business with Harvey. Even Nathan had given Giga a small company so that the young man could learn to take care of business.
After traveling approximately thirty minutes, finally the luxury car belonging to the Avicenna family arrived in the yard of the house that is quite spacious. This house was deliberately used as Damian and Freya as a place to hold parties and other important celebrations.
Giga went down with Sheila and Nathan. The young man in glasses always looked down if in this situation. Giga doesn't like the crowd very much.
Sheila, who was aware of the child's worries, immediately wrapped her hand around Giga's arm.
"Look down, kid. You can definitely yes! Do this for Mother. Okay?" sheila whispered trying to calm down.
Yes, due to the kidnapping incident five years ago, Giga turned into a person who easily mastered the fear of facing many people. Sheila had already brought Giga to consult with Liam's doctor. But it turns out to cure the trauma must be done repeated therapy sessions.
Giga himself did not like what Liam did. As a result, he revolted more often and looked for reasons if the time of therapy sessions arrived.
Sheila greets the hadith guests there. The average is indeed Damian's business colleague. And Sheila knows some people.
Sheila saw the teenage girl in bloom beautifully approaching them. She's Carissa, who's happy tonight.
"Bang Giga!" carissa exclaimed with sparkling eyes.
"Finally my brother came too. I've been waiting for my brother since, "Carissa said.
Sheila whispered in Giga's ear if the man should give her gift to Carissa.
"Well, sorry I came late. Here's a gift for you!" giga said, handing over a box to Carissa.
"Well, thank you so much, brother." Carissa received the rectangular box happily.
"Oh yes, then you guys just chat first. Auntie wants to accompany Om Nathan first. Carissa, get Giga! Happy birthday again!" Sheila bids a farewell to Giga and Carissa and searches for the whereabouts of her husband Nathan.
"Come, Bang. We're there!" Carissa grabbed Giga's arm and carried the man out of the crowd.
Arriving at the quiet back garden, Carissa and Giga sat on the park bench there.
"I know you don't like crowds. That's why I brought my brother here" Carissa said with a sweet smile.
"Ah yes. Thank you," Giga replied briefly.
"Oh yeah, I opened a gift from brother, can I?"
Giga. Carissa excitedly opened the box that was like a jewelry box.
Carissa's eyes were round looking at the beautiful diamond necklace there.
"Abang! It's so beautiful, Bang. Thank you very much!" Carissa immediately hugged Giga because she was so happy.
"I'm wearing it!" bargain Giga when Carissa's embrace has come off.
Carissa gladly accepted Giga's offer. Giga gently placed his necklace around Carissa's neck.
"Thank you very much, Bang." Carissa held her necklace with teary eyes. "It's so beautiful."
"Mother chose it" said Giga.
"Why really? I don't mess with women's tastes, so..."
"We've known each other since childhood. Don't you ever know what my favorite is?"
"So, you don't like the necklace?"
"It's not. But..." Carissa exhaled a rough breath.
"Hahah! Yes already! I don't want to ruin a precious moment tonight."
Classical music is starting to sound. Romantic songs begin to wash away Carissa's feelings.
"Well, will you dance with me?" bring Carissa.
Giga just nodded and followed Carissa's wishes. The two of them face each other and close their bodies together.
Carissa's hands were coiled around Giga's neck. Small movements begin to form. They danced in the atmosphere of a sad night.
Carissa stared fixedly at the man who was now so close to her.
"Remember..."
"Hmm?" Giga looked back at Carissa.
"I like my brother. Will you be my lover?" carissa said without being stale.
"Eh?" Giga jerks.
"I'm serious! Let's go out, Bang!"
For a moment Giga fell silent and their dance moves came to a halt.
"Carissa, you're only 15 and..."
"I knew. But I've liked my brother a long time ago. I want my brother to be mine!"
Giga looked at the sweet girl who was in front of him. There is nothing lacking with Carissa. She is beautiful, smart, and of good descent certainly. It's just ... Giga has changed a lot since the events of five years ago.
"If you're silent, I assume you agree!" carissa Emphatic.
"Carissa, i..."
Carissa immediately tiptoed and placed her lips on Giga's lips.
Giga's eyes were bulging when he felt the soft lips of the beautiful girl touch his lips.
"From now on, we're officially made!" carissa said after letting go of her kiss.
Giga was still poking eyes in disbelief at what had just happened.

The party was over, leaving only the Giga and Karel families there. Of course, Mira and Nathan's relationship is starting to melt. After all, they are family. It should look harmonious in front of everyone.
As the parents were gathering, Carissa loudly made an announcement.
"Consider everything! I have something to tell you all."
Sheila and Nathan frowned. Carissa and Giga are holding hands. Damian and Freya as well as Mira and Karel.
Karel did not like the closeness that Carissa did with Giga. Since childhood Carissa always attached to Giga. Although Karel was also close to Carissa, but the beautiful girl only treated Karel as a friend. Unlike Giga who is considered Carissa special.
"Starting tonight, Bang Giga and I are officially dating. I beg the blessing of papa and mama as well as Nathan and Aunt Sheila," said Carissa who made everyone's eyes pattern.

Sheila was still awake on the bed despite the late night and her tired body wanted to rest immediately. He was still thinking about the words of Carissa who announced her relationship with Giga.
"Master Su! You're asleep already?" ask Sheila.
"Hmm, what's wrong? Go to sleep, it's night!" nathan said with a little bit of a fuss. His eyes were closed but he still answered his wife's question.
"Why do I feel so unsettled? Carissa and Giga are right..."
"Easy! They're still kids. At most they are just experiencing the love of monkeys. Let it. If they are fighting, that would be destiny. But if not, maybe not a soul mate."
"Ish, Mr. Su! What do you mean talk like that? Giga and Carissa are too young to have such a relationship."
"Leave it, baby. It was a monkey's love. Just trust me! Maybe that way Giga could be more excited in his life."
The answer to Nathan's answer finally made Sheila give in. She closed her eyes and followed her husband into a dream.
