NOAH: The Musical Genius
Meet

Noah walked out of the airport to his car in a shaky step. She regrets that she never told Sherly that she loved Sherly.

'Ever since when did that taste exist. But I just realized it now.'

Noah got into the car with an erratic mind. Memories of Sherly come to mind. How he met the girl for the first time. How for the first time he could like a girl.

Noah's car re-entered Alexander's courtyard after a 40-minute drive from the airport. He got out of the car with a disheveled face. She walks into a crowded house with people and families celebrating Clara and Jimmy's wedding. Everyone looked at Noah who had just arrived. Bella runs to her son.

"Where's Mama's daughter-in-law?" Bella said as she looked at the door.

Noah did not answer, instead he chose to lay himself on the sofa.

"The party isn't finished yet?" Noah asked to switch the conversation.

Bella who seemed to understand about the suffering felt by her son whispered towards Erlan who was also standing next to him. Erlan nodded then walked away leaving the two towards the invited guests.

One by one the invited guests left. Now at home, only the nuclear family remains, including Jimmy. The Great Lord Adam sat beside Noah. Everyone sat on the sofa in the living room. Their eyes focused on Noah. Big Master Adam asked, Noah spoke first.

"He's gone, and he's not coming back. He is from a neighboring country and has no one. Both of his parents have died. He came to this country in search of a new life. However, this year he had already passed the limit of his stay. So, he's gotta be deported." Noah said a long breath.

Noah changed his sitting position by looking down with both elbows resting on his thighs, while his hands hooked each other with chins resting on his fists.

"I don't know when I started to love him. But, from the very beginning of meeting her, that girl had indeed caught my attention. I'd even go undercover as his secretary to stay close to him and trouble Jimmy with the heaping work." Said Noah by inserting a laugh that actually looks sad.

Noah let out a long sigh, while everyone fell silent and continued to let him talk.

"Today I even acted foolishly by chasing him all the way to the airport. I don't know if he has the same feelings as me." Noah then turned his head back to the sofa.

Bella shed tears. Imagine the pain her son felt.

"Honey, that girl must have the same feelings as you." Bella said that made Noah sit up straight again. "try to see. Now she leaves the marriage which can save her from being deported. But, in fact, he chose to leave because surely he did not want to trouble our family and also because he fell in love with you. And he doesn't want to be tied to a fake marriage." Bella.

Noah's eyes were initially sparkling, but seemed to have dimmed again.

"While it's true that he loves me, it's too late. He has left this country. And I don't know where to look. The neighboring country is vast, and it won't be easy to find someone who even I don't know his real address." Reply Noah.

"Who said." Erlan said that made everyone switch to looking at her. "Papa's sure that Sherly hasn't left the country yet." Erlan.

"I mean Papa?" Ask Noah.

"He will definitely return to the next town and clear all the files at the immigration office. He must have gone back to the office to clean up his things." Answer Erlan.

Noah immediately stood up and approached Erlan.

"Does that mean I can still see him?" Ask Noah.

"Of course." Erlan answered, who was immediately embraced by Noah.

"Thank you Pa. I'm leaving right now."

"Go chase your love. Don't let him go or you'll regret it." Erlan.

Noah nodded with a smile.

"Jimmy call Papa's private pilot immediately. Ask him to get ready to take me to town Y. I'm leaving right now." Noah's Word.

"Ready Boss." Answer Jimmy quickly.

Before leaving, Noah hugs Bella as well as Erlan and the Opa.

"Pray that I may bring back your son-in-law." Noah sumringah.

"Of course." Replied Bella and Erlan and the Great Lord Adam together.

After Noah leaves, Erlan grabs Bella's waist.

"I don't want our son to experience what I once felt when I lost track of you. I want her to be happy with any woman she loves. It doesn't matter who that woman is. As long as Noah is happy, then I'll be happy, too." Erlan.

"Thank you dear. I love you." Bella.

"I love you more." Reply Erlan.

***********

Noah arrives in town Y, at 13:00. As Erlan said, Noah headed straight for the office. He traveled alone because it was impossible to trouble Jimmy who was a newlywed. Noah rushes to his office upon arrival at the airport. As he gets into the car, Noah quickly picks up his cell phone and tries to call Sherly.

'The number you are going to, cannot be reached.'

"Aarrrghh..." Noah screams in the car.

Noah's mind is getting worse, he can only hope that Sherly has not left for abroad. Noah called someone back at the office.

"Megan, is Sherly in the office?" Ask Noah.

"A-there's Tu-lord." Megan recently learned that Noah is the son of the CEO of Xander Group.

Previously everyone in the office did assume that Noah was a secretary. However, when news of Noah's marriage with Sherly is published to the public, Noah's true identity begins to be known to many people including employees who work in the office.

Meanwhile, Sherly was cleaning up her stuff in her study. The employees in front of her room began to speculate nothing against her. Ever since Sherly first came to the office, all eyes have been on her. Most of the women started to gossip about him.

"Look, don't be married to the heir of Xander Group. Who would have thought Mr. Noah was actually the only son of Mr. Erlan the owner of our office and not to mention other offices."

"Master Noah must have known that Sherly was just gonna use him."

"Pity, marriage annulment, being fired, and not wanting deportation."

And there are many other sayings that make Sherly's ears heat up. However, he did not want to mengubris the words of the people and chose to continue packing. When she finished, Sherly brought out a blue map and walked over to a table where an employee named Roni was sitting.

"Roni, please give this document to the boss, me....."

"Sherley....." Shouted someone who made Sherly's heart beat fast.

"Sherley...." The shout echoed throughout the room which made the curious employees stand up.

'Noah...!'

All the employees sat down when they saw the figure who was shouting was Noah. Noah stood ten meters away from Sherly. The two stared at each other from a distance. All the employees fell silent and looked towards the two.

"Why did you just leave?" Shouted Noah.

"Then what do you want me to do?" Reply Sherly yelling.

"You're stupid. Which woman leaves the groom alone waiting at the wedding venue. You're embarrassing me." Shouted Noah again.

"I can't fool your family." Reply Sherly.

"Does that mean you like me?" Noah shouted as he walked slowly towards Sherly.

"Stop. Stay there and don't come here. Or..."

"Or what?" Noah shouted back. "Or you'll kiss me in front of everyone." Noah continues.

Sherly's eyes widened, as well as the employees who heard the debate both.

"Speak what the hell are you?" Sherly.

"Wasn't that night when you were sleeping, you stole my first kiss. You pulled me in your arms and kissed me forcibly." Noah said.

All the employees started whispering.

"Omong empty." Shouted Sherly with flushed cheeks.

'That means I really kissed her that night. I thought it was just a dream, Sherly said in her heart.

Noah stood in front of Sherly and looked at her with a smile.

"Look, your cheeks are red. Do you remember that?" Say Noah again.

Sherly is silent, she looks down and doesn't want to look at Noah in shame.

"I'm gonna take my first kiss from you." Noah said with Sherly's chin up.

"I mean...."

The cup!

Not finished Sherly speaking, Noah had kissed her in front of all the employees who seemed shocked by Noah's actions. Noah kisses Sherly long enough to finally let go of her kiss. Slowly Noah knelt down and took out a ring from inside his pants pocket.

"Sherly, I don't know since when I fell in love with you. But I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Marry me?" Noah said seriously.

Sherly is silent, she does not expect Noah to love her too.

"I didn't dream?" Ask Sherly.

"Pinch your own cheek. If it hurts, you're not dreaming." Answer Noah.

"Why do you like me? I'm not beautiful, I'm not smart, I'm not rich. I don't even have a family." Sherly.

"That's because I already have it all. I'm handsome, I'm smart, and I'm rich, and I have a big family that can be your family too. So what am I looking for again? Therefore, you just need to be yourself, that's enough for me. Now answer me, do you want to be the next Mrs Alexander? My knee hurts."

Sherly nodded with her tears falling. Noah stood up and wiped the tears on Sherly's cheek.

"I'm surprised. Why do you women always cry. Whether it's sad or happy." Noah Said.

"You won't understand." Reply Sherly.

Noah hugged Sherly.

"I love you." Noah Said.

"I love you too." Reply Sherly.

All the employees remained silent, not daring to make a sound.

"Do you all want me to fire. Quickly cheer and clap, because your big boss is getting married." Noah Said.

After that all the new employees cheered and applauded. Sherly could only laugh.

Seriate....
