It is very worrying for Lyra if she has to maintain her friendship with Axel or has to end her relationship with Rigel. These two men have made Lyra unable to understand everything. Lyra, who has not understood Axel's attitude and speech in recent days, and Lyra, who can not understand his new feelings, hates Rigel's attitude that is meek and annoying, but he felt heavy if he had to end his fake relationship with Rigel.
How could Axel be angry just because of Lyra's special relationship with Rigel, if he was angry because Lyra became Rigel's pretend lover, why could he be angry when Lyra had not told him about her true status. Lyra did suspect Axel had more feelings for her. However, Lyra persisted in believing that Axel could have no other feelings than the affection of a friend. And there is no way Axel can break his long-standing friendship just because of a feeling that cannot be achieved. Because Lyra has no feelings for Axel except for his affection as a friend.
This situation had indeed completely confused Lyra's mind. Repeatedly Lyra sighed, constantly thinking about finding a way out of her problem. However, the thought was too scared to make his mind could not reach the idea to get out of his problem.
Along the way home, on the bus Lyra bowed her head with her eyes and mind constantly pensive in her daydream.
Nata then grabs Lyra's hand. "Are you okay?"
Lyra. "So, I don't think I'm okay."
"To calm your mind now, how about tonight you stay at my apartment. I'll make you a nice snack" said Agni.
"Good idea, I agree. When you go home, how can you tell your problems with your father and mother freely. And for that, we are ready to listen to your grievances" Nata added.
Lyra also agreed with the advice given by her two best friends. When she comes home, Lyra can tell her parents the problem. Lyra will be angered by them, especially by her father who might make her stop working.
Arriving at the apartment, Agni just prepared a lot of snacks for Lyra and Nata. They gathered in the middle room with many snacks that Agni put on the table. There Lyra can laugh freely and forget the problems that have burdened her. However, it was only a few minutes that Lyra was able to forget her problem, that suddenly the thought reappeared.
"Is there something wrong with me" murmured Lyra with a sad look on her face.
"Are you still thinking about Axel's request?" Ask Nata.
Lyra. "It seems so, do you feel that Axel's attitude is very different."
"Different how do you mean?" Ask Agni astonished.
"He doesn't like it when I have a relationship with Rigel."
"He doesn't like it because maybe your relationship with Rigel's sir is not official, especially Rigel sir is like using you."
"He didn't even like it before I told him about our real relationship."
Instantly Nata furrowed his brows. "Maybe she's jealous, she may have other feelings for you."
"Maybe Axel has other feelings for you. You have been in a friendship with Axel for years, and maybe the affection of a friend turned into a feeling of love. Don't you feel that way" Agni added.
Nata squinted his eyes. "Maybe Axel is like that, but does Lyra also have other feelings for Axel." Nata then smiled at Lyra. "I doubt Lyra has any other feelings for Axel. Because his current feelings are not for Axel, but for Rigel sir.
Lyra swallowed her saliva with a red hue that appeared on both of her cheeks. "What do you mean?"
Nata gently nudged Lyra's shoulder with his shoulder. "Just be honest with us, that your feelings are currently on Rigel sir."
"So, I hate him so much, but strangely my heart seems to be against not hating him."
Nata chuckles. "You should immediately formalize your relationship. Because from what I've seen, it looks like Mr. Rigel also has feelings for you."
Lyra shook her head quickly. "Where might he like me, he's chasing after the woman who's his first love."
"What if his first love was you."
Nata's forehead flinched. "Third meeting? Where are your first and second meetings?"
"Our first meeting was at a nightclub and at a hotel..." Lyra spontaneously covered her mouth with a palm. Lyra slipped, the intention of wanting to hide her secret was revealed by her own mouth.
Nata chuckles. "Don't tell me Mr. Rigel is the guy who made you take the Pill."
Lyra immediately covered her face with her hands in embarrassment.
"Yes, he's the guy I slept with in the hotel room."
"It's only fitting that he makes you a special worker for him. Maybe he had a feeling after sleeping with you."
"I don't think so."
Lyra then recounted the beginning of her meeting with Rigel, and the beginning of how she was hired specifically for the CEO who was famous for her sharp mouth. Both of his friends arrived to be made to not expect what Lyra told them. About how he gave money three hundred thousand after sleeping with Rigel and about Lyra being careless to the point of sleeping with Rigel. Maybe according to Lyra, he was the first to tease her to make Rigel want to sleep with her. Because starting from his whip to make him think that Rigel is Daniel.
"It's just fine that he wants to make you suffer. After enjoying his body, you left money for a rich man like Rigel Calisto whose pocket money was trillions" Nata said.
"Maybe he hired me at first because he wanted revenge. But after I met his nephew, his ignorant intentions were removed. And he made me his pretended lover just for Jayden's sake. And after that day, he never made me trouble with the back and forth making food for him."
Nata smiles. "Maybe he has feelings for you. Just a quick glance I can see that he really likes you." Nata then grabbed Lyra's hand while smiling gleefully. "I'm sure that Mr. Rigel will undo his intention to pursue his first love."
Instantly Lyra hit Nata's hand with the look of her face that looked red. "Stop fantasizing."
After being satisfied chatting Lyra and her two best friends fell asleep in the living room under the same blanket. The next day Lyra woke up and found Agni crying beside her. Lyra panicked and just grabbed her hand.
"What's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"
"I was going to buy you guys breakfast. But when I'm going to withdraw money from an ATM card, all my cards are blocked including credit cards. And my father spilled all my credit bills on me. If I refuse to be betrothed then my father will not recover my ATM card and he also intends to confiscate my apartment," Agni explained as she cried a sigh."
Then Lyra hugged Agni. "What if you stay with me in the meantime. My room isn't as big as yours, but I have the right bed for both of us to sleep in."
Agni releases Lyra's embrace. "Even if I get a free place to stay, it doesn't mean I'll settle down with my credit card bills that I can't pay. While the salary from my job doesn't match the credit bill I have."
"Then, what do you want? Are you going to accept the matchmaking your father did."
"Of course not. I'm gonna derail my match."
"How is it?"
"Tomorrow my father asked me to meet the man I was going to marry. I have an idea to derail it." Agni then grabbed Lyra's hands. "Can you help me."
"In what way do I help you."
"Seplace me. Tomorrow I will meet him alone. Make her feel disgusted until she cancels her match."
Lyra took Agni's hand off her hand. "don't want. What if your father finds out and he's angry, because I've interfered."
"If he finds out, I'll explain it and say that I forced you." Agni then again grabbed Lyra's hands. "Please help me."
