My Enemy, My Love
Always Just

Ethan drives his car at a fast speed to his Papa's office. Just like Clara, Ethan's parents also educate Ethan out loud. That's why Ethan feels he doesn't quite get along with Clara because they both have a hard nature, don't want to lose and want to win on their own. Traits that attach more importance to the ego than to the feelings of others.

It took Ethan 40 minutes to get to his Papa company. Roads that are so jammed become the cause of travel becomes longer. Usually not up to 25 minutes of time is needed from campus to Brin Group but now it is getting longer because of the traffic jam.

Ethan threw his body on the long couch in his Papa's room. It felt like he was so tired after struggling with the guidance of his script.

Brin, Papa Ethan was just in a hurry to see the behavior of his only son who looked lazy.

“How's your script?” brin asked without looking at his son. He was busy checking the reports that had piled up on his desk.

“Leave a little revision, two more weeks I have trial” replied Ethan casually.

“Good then, Papa heard Clara also wanted trial” said Brin chimed.

This is one of the reasons Ethan doesn't like Clara any more. Ethan was always compared to that girl. Clara's smart, this Clara, that Clara to the point that Ethan's so tired of hearing it.

….

In a different place, Arlan had arrived at the residence of Gavin Alexander aka Papa from Clara and Chila. Arlan has often played in this house. He even considered the house to be his own. The security guard and IRT there are very familiar with it.  With a smile Arlan entered the house and greeted anyone he met including Chila who is currently sitting in the TV room alone with her face covered.

“Hey.. sweet sister, why is your face so?” asked Arlan pretending not to know. He sat next to Chila while embracing her shoulder. But Chila quickly took off the embrace.

Chila showed a ring on her ring finger.

“Sorry brother I already have a girlfriend, do not hug me carelessly again ya” said Chila who of course made Arlan's laughter instantly broke.

“Ha ha ha...” Alan really couldn't hold back his laughter. He laughed so hard that his stomach hurt. Chila's facial expression was so adorable as she said that and it made Arlan even more unable to hold back her laughter.

Arlan's loud laughter certainly heard from Clara's room which was located on the first floor. Clara came out of her room in a work suit because she was going to her Papa's office. Clara frowned seeing her best friend laughing out loud.

“What's funny?” clara approached the two.

Chila who was still angry at her brother did not answer. He immediately got up and left just like that leaving Arlan who was still laughing.

Seeing the arrival of Clara who had been very neat made Arlan immediately stop his laughter. He stood up and grabbed Clara's shoulders as usual.

“So I held her up like this and she showed me her ring instead. He said he already has a lover” said Arlan explained., “Your sister is indeed funny once”.

“Ohh.” Clara chimed in with one word “Oh” alone as if not interested.

“You want to go to Om Gavin's office?” arlan asked and Clara nodded her head in response.

“Then let's go together, I also want to see Papa. He said Papa was also there” said Arlan who without waiting for answers Clara immediately pulled the girl to come out with him. Arlan had already memorized Clara's routine, so she had deliberately come to take the girl away together.

…

“Don't be too hard on your sister” rebukes Arlan when they're already on their way to Alexander Group.

Arlan nodded his head understanding.

“My advice is to let Chila be friends with Agnes, after she feels for herself how new Agnes she will believe all your words. Sometimes we have to let people feel the pain of falling so that in the future the person can be careful” said Arlan while stroking Clara's hair with love.

Clara smiled faintly while nodding her head. Arlan is like her brother because Arlan understands her very well. It's very different from Ethan who always thinks badly of him.

….

It turns out that Ethan and his Papa also went to the Alexander Group company. Gavin, Brin and Mandey (Papa Arlan) do have a meeting. Their plan would be to create a new subsidiary with their respective subsidiary shareholders. Later after the three pass S2 they will run the company.

“This they came” said Gavin when he saw his daughter and Arlan entering the room. Ethan, Gavin, Brin, and Mandey. Ethan bends his face seeing Arlan embrace Clara's shoulder. He's not jealous, not at all. It's just that Arlan had lied because he said he would be home but he instead came with Clara.

“Why can it be together?” mandey asked curiously.

“I picked Clara up to her house when Papa chatted me to come here. I think Clara will be here too. Let's just” Arlan replied with a smile.

“Oh...you this could have” said Mandey who already knows his son's reason.

Throughout the discussion Ethan just kept quiet. Either too focused or still upset that Arlan lied to him. The mood was very bad at the time.

Arlan elbowed Ethan's arm because his best friend did not greet him at all when it had been almost thirty minutes they were sitting next to each other.

Ethan turned his head for a while then refocused on listening to Gavin's explanation. Arlan frowned. He who has known Ethan for a long time certainly knows that his best friend is angry.

Arlan again elbowed Ethan's arm but again Ethan did not respond.

“You angry?” whispered Arlan quietly.

Ethan pretends not to hear, he refocuses on Gavin's explanation.

“You're jealous?” that was all that came to Arlan's mind.

Hearing that certainly made Ethan so angry. He stared at Arlan. He did not like to hear the word jealousy coming out of Arlan's mouth.

“Bacot” says Ethan while elbowing Arlan's arm. Unfortunately the action was seen by Brin. He also rebuked his son.

“Ethan, look at Clara, focus on working. This is not the time to mess around” said Brin reprimanding his son.

Ethan grunts.

Always compared to that rude girl. Ethan murmured in his heart.

Seriate...
