After paying for the cake. Alana left the cashier's desk and immediately approached Valerie who was waiting for her at the other end.
"Sit down." Valerie ordered. Alana nodded and immediately placed her body on the empty seat that was in front of Valerie.
"Miss Alana, why is your face suddenly so pale?" valerie asked as she watched Alana's different face as before.
"No. It's okay" argued Alana.
"Well, why don't you and Mr Billy get married?" Alana who was so curious about Valerie and Billy's relationship, she immediately questioned it. Valerie is reluctant to discuss her problems with the man, but she is forced to tell Alana everything about her Grandmother who kicked her out a few weeks ago, including how she hid for a while in David's apartment
"That means, you used to live in David's apartment?" alana asked in disbelief. Valerie also confirmed it.
"Because she knew all this, why didn't she tell me?" alana murmured in the heart. Seeing Alana who was silent made Valerie know what the woman was thinking.
"Ken didn't know this, Miss Alana. I told David and Ashley not to tell anyone, including your husband," Valerie said.
"I've forgotten Ken, so you don't have to be afraid. I admit, I was still expecting your husband, but I don't know why my feelings and thoughts were blind like that. But, I'm not a woman who can ruin someone else's household, Ken loves you so much, I know Ken, he'll never turn away from you, so trust him."
After hearing Valerie's words, the misgivings in Alana's heart suddenly disappeared. It was as if there was relief within the woman. He had fully believed in Ken, although fear often struck his heart.
"When have you lived in David's apartment?" ask Alana.
"Just when your dad left, but now I'm not living in David's apartment anymore."
"Oh, yes, Miss Alana. I'm so sorry for your father's departure at the time, I really wanted to join David, but I was afraid that there would ruin the atmosphere" Valerie said.
"Thank you.." replied Alana.
"Ehm, so your grandmother now doesn't want to accept you?" ask Alana. Valerie nodded with teary eyes.
"Why didn't you tell all of Billy's behavior to your Grandma?"
"Free, Miss. Besides I've accepted the consequences, my grandmother doesn't believe what I said about Billy. Because Billy first slandered me for cheating." Valerie tried to hold back her tears that wanted to explode, but she held it all her might.
"I didn't think Billy was like that, I thought he was a good guy." said Alana.
"You're patient, Miss Valerie. Surely you can find a much better man than Billy." Alana rubs Valerie's shoulder trying to calm the woman down.
"Yes, thank you." Valerie responded with a smile.
"Miss Alana, I bought a house around here, if you don't mind, stop by for a second." Valerie hoped that the woman before her would currently accept her offer.
"Ehm..." Alana glanced towards the watch that was coiled around her wrist. Time is 13:00
"Still a long time," he murmured.
"Well, I'll stop by your house for a minute." Valerie was so happy to hear that Alana would stop by her house.
"Superior here for a while, I'll buy a cake." Valerie leaves Alana, before long, she returns and is seen carrying 10 bags of cookies in her hands. Making Alana frown in wonder, what the cakes want to be made, he thought like that.
"A lot of you buy cakes, what for?" ask Alana.
"To share. Come on, Miss Alana." Valerie immediately invites Alana to leave the cake shop. The two of them walked together towards Valerie's house while chatting. Valerie suddenly stopped her footsteps making Alana also follow her.
"Miss Alana, wait here, I'm going to hand out these cookies." Alana. He saw Valerie walking away from him, suddenly so many street children when he saw Valerie immediately running towards him.
Valerie distributed the cake she had bought earlier to the street children, making Alana so surprised when she saw it. Valerie looks very familiar with the street children.
Shortly after, after distributing the cake, Valerie walked over to Alana. "Come on, Miss Alana," he walked back.
"You look so familiar with those kids?" ask Alana.
"Yes, every two days I meet them to distribute food," he replied as he asked Alana to walk to his house located not far from there.
"Well, while at the halfway house, a lot of people praised Valerie. Besides she's beautiful she's actually good." Alana muttered in her heart, she was incessantly watching Valerie, who she felt was amazing.

Upon arrival at Valerie's house, the woman immediately invited Alana to enter a minimalist house that was so beautiful with a layer of pink paint. Valerie took Alana into the room and now they are both sitting on the bed.
Alana looked around the house. "You live alone?" tanyakanya. Valerie.
"Then where are your parents?" ask Alana back.
"Both of my parents are dead."
"I'm sorry, I don't know."
"It's okay, Miss Alana."
"Call Alana," said Alana.
"Alright, you should also behead me Valerie," she said with a smile.
"All right," said Alana.
"Valerie, I'm so hungry. Can I eat the cake I bought here?"
"Of course, eat it.." After getting permission from Valerie, Alana immediately opened the cake box that showed six pieces of cake that she had bought earlier in the box. Alana impatiently wanted to eat it right away.
Valerie frowned in astonishment upon seeing him. "Alana, are you sure you want to finish these cookies?" tanyakanya.
"Where could I spend it? I'll just eat one piece of cake, the rest I'll take home, let's eat together." Alana's got a piece of cake for Valerie. Valerie actually refused to accept it, because she was so full, but she appreciated Alana to accompany her to eat the cake.
Alana ate the cake so voraciously, as if unforgiving of the taste of her desire that she had endured since. One piece of cake given by Alana still Valerie ate some, while Alana had eaten four pieces of cake to make Valerie shake her head.
"Say you only eat one piece of cake, but you spend four pieces of cake" Valerie said.
"It can't be if you only eat one cake, the cake is too delicious." Alana chewed quickly on the cake that was still in her mouth. Impressed greedy, but not.
Valerie tried to enjoy her cake thoroughly. "I think all cakes are the same." he muttered in surprise to see Alana.
"Valerie, I'm so full" said Alana as she kept the box with one cookie inside.
"How not to be full, you spend four cookies at once. Drink first..." Valerie thrust out a glass of water.
"Thank you..." Alana took a sip of the water until there was nothing left of her salutation,
Feeling after the fullness from eating the cake, Alana yawned many times as drowsiness suddenly struck her.
"Why do you get sleepy?" muttering Alana who was already unable to resist her drowsiness, she glanced towards the pillow beside her. It felt like he was eager to lay down his body and close his eyes there.
"If you're sleepy, go to bed here first, come home later in the afternoon" Valerie said. Alana again glanced towards the watch that was coiled around her wrist. Time is 13:45
"Can I rest here for a while?" ask Alana.

Ken that afternoon was seen in David's office. Because there is a business that he must finish with his best friend. When he finished his talk about work, Ken's cellphone which was in his pants pocket suddenly shook, making his hand immediately reach for the phone.
There was one incoming call from Uncle Lux. Ken immediately received the incoming call.
"Hallo, what's up, Uncle?" ask Ken.
"Sir, Miss Alana an hour ago went to the chooking pastry shop near the hospital, Miss Alana was forcing me and telling me to go home, so I had to leave Miss Alana alone there, sir." Lux spoke in a tone of fear.
"Why should you leave him, can you wait for him in the distance! And why are you telling me now?" exclaim Ken.
"Sorry, Sir. I'm having trouble calling, sir. It's I'm on my way to pick up Miss, sir."
"No need! Let Ken pick her up! Better get back home!" ken's orders ended the call.
David who saw Ken's face waut was so upset, he immediately reprimanded him. "What's up, Ken?" tanyakanya.
"Alana went out of the house alone,"
"See, I'd like to call her ..." Ken switched to calling Alana's phone number to ask her whereabouts at the moment.
The connecting tone was heard many times, but no word from his wife's phone made Ken even more anxious to question the whereabouts of his wife. The third time the call was connected.
"Hallo.." the voice of a woman who was not the voice of Alana was heard from behind the cell phone she was currently holding
"Hallo, who is this?"
"Call, Ken. It's me Valerie." Hearing the name, the strokes on Ken's forehead were clearly visible.
"Why can Alana's phone be on you? what did you do to my wife?" bentak Ken's.
"Ken, I didn't do anything to Alana, I just met your wife, she's in my house now. It's resting."
"Where's your home address?" ken's question, which was thrown with a voice, made Valerie immediately mention her home address.
"I'll be there soon!"
"Wait!" ken's voice undoes Valerie's intention to turn off Alana's phone.
"What's up, Ken?" tanyakanya.
"Look me all right! If you do anything or hurt my wife a little, I swear I won't forgive you." Haven't heard Valerie's answer yet, Ken immediately ended the call. He left David's room, but David stopped him for a moment.
"Ken, where are you going?" ask David.
"To Valerie's place, Alana was there," replied Ken, he resumed his footsteps in haste, David following her from behind.
"How can Alana be at Valerie's place?" ask David.
"Let's go. You ask a lot of questions!" bentak Ken's.
"I'm coming with you!" david Pinta. Ken also agreed.
