Not Cinderella
Big Boss

The dark turns bright, the sun begins to shine on the eastern horizon. The chirping of a carefree bird danced in Vivian's ears, with the instant she opened her eyes. His nose caught the scented aroma from the Bread grill. Without further ado Vivian immediately ran to the source of the scent. He found his adoptive mother baking bread and gave him a little pineapple jam on it.

“good morning dear, are you awake?” greet Cellyn to the girl.

“morning mom, why don't you wake me up?I can help mom.” Vivian immediately wrapped around Cellyn's waist with both hands and gave a kiss on the woman's right cheek.

“mother can't bear, all night you keep the store. You must be tired.”

Vivian just smiled and shook her head, last night there were so many customers who came to buy various breads and cakes that they rented at Audrey’s Bakkery.

After breakfast, Vivian immediately took a shower and prepared for the store again. Graduation day is over, he is currently on vacation and waiting for the graduation announcement from the university where he applied.

“ibu, I'm leaving!” yelled Vivian who was right in front of the door and was about to get out. Like yesterday, Cellyn today can not accompany Vivian, because she must accompany Madam Laurent at the Hospital.

“iya son, be careful.” Reply Cellyn later.

Arriving at the Vivian store turned off the lights that were as lights on the sign of their store name. And get into the store. Instantly the closed posts changed Open.

“hopefully today will be as crowded as yesterday.” Say Vivian expectantly while cleaning her pastry storefronts. Don't forget he's wearing an apron and a chef's hat on his head. They have no staff to help, because her mother is not there only temporarily.

Ting teng's..

The sound of the clanking of bells that are directly above the glass door will be heard when someone enters.

“welcome to Audrey’s Bakkery.” Vivian said welcomingly.

“halo miss. I want to order cake.” The woman who turned out to be Helen.

“halo mistress, fine. Please sit.” Vivian immediately invited Helen to sit down. Transactions are done. After giving the purchase receipt, Helen paid half the price of the order. Then he came home.

Vivianpun continued that day by serving the crowded shop visitors. Until the stock of cakes in the store is thinned.

“astaga, I have to tell mom soon.” Think Vivian.

A few hours before the engagement.

“Juan, come here.” Shouted Helen calling her second child who was on the second floor of the villa.

“what's mom?” Asked Juan lazily. His body was heavy to walk down.

“you're why not so excited. Please pick up the cake at the place we booked that time.” Helen's Order.

“ah, I tell Uncle Lim only. Juan tired.” Without waiting for an answer, Juan immediately ran back upstairs.

“Juan!” scream Helen.

“mommy please, let Daan alone.” Daan who had just entered the villa had heard the debate of his mother and sister.

“ alright, you're all right, son. The place is not far from here the shop is named Audrey’s Bakkery.” His mother replied while giving him a purchase receipt.

“good bu.” Daan then passed from before her mother. He drove his car to where his mother intended it.

Audrey’s Bakkery.

Ting.teng..

As usual, when someone comes in. But different as before, this time there is no sound Vivian welcomed by saying “welcome”.

“excuse.” Daan gave his greetings at the shop that looked vacant. His eyes caught a pile of bread on a table that had been neatly arranged with his boxes.

“excuse.” Say hello to Daan again, because they have not received an answer.

“iya briefly.” Shouted Vivian from the direction of the kitchen with 2 boxes of cookies in her hand. Immediately putting the boxes down, Vivian immediately ran towards the source of the voice earlier. And how surprised he was when he saw the man.

“You?” vivian and Daan said.

“who are you?” ask them again in unison. Just like twins.

“aku Daan my mother asked me to pick up the cake that was ordered a few days ago.” Daan replied.

“this was a strange girl back then.” Daan.

“heh, strange woman. Why are you here?” ask Daan with a voice.

“just thought you called me weird. This my shop. What do you want here uncle?”vivian's reply didn't take.

“don't call me uncle, I'm not that old.” Ketus Daan's.

“then why do you call me a strange woman huh? Very annoying.” Reply Vivian is no less ketus.

“I don't have time to argue with kids like you. It's take, I'm told to take my mother's cake.” Daan is lazy to waste time on things that he thinks are very unimportant. He immediately gave Vivian a purchase receipt and settled the rest of the payment.

“oh, say from earlier.” Vivian took the receipt rough. Then help Daan bring the box-box cake and arrange it in the car.

“what's her name Audrey?” batin Daan who just passed by his car to the Villa.

Late afternoon, Adrian and his family arrived at the Aston Villa for the engagement. Some of Stephani and Daan's best friends are also seen. Music from the piano clink began to be played. Various instruments of romantic songs accompany the happiness of both families, but not with Daan. Several times he sipped wine alone on the balcony of the villa. It was as if he did not care about what would happen later. He threw his gaze away enjoying the flickering lights along the coast. His head seemed to be about to break, it had never felt this frustrating. Until he screamed loudly.

Ferdinand and Alan who had just found their best friend rushed to meet Daan.

“hei Daan, why are you?” ask Alan. He was confused by Daan's condition.

“And tell us.” Ferdinand chimed.

“what should I tell you? I don't want this engagement. I don't want to get married.” Reveal Daan with hardened jaw.

“If you don't want to just say Daan, don't torture yourself.” Imbuh Ferdinand by patting his best friend's shoulder.

“you know how my father is? I also can't bear to make my father and mother disappointed.” Daan closed his eyes dropping his body which was now leaning against the iron barrier of the balcony.

“we will help you talk to uncle and aunt.” Alan said sure.

“don't do it. I'm going to make this engagement. I don't want to embarrass my family here either.” Daan said sincerely.

The engagement event went smoothly, the invited guests who had been present were already seen, as well as the Adrian family, with their daughter and wife they left to return to their residence. Aston has already banned and asked them to stay but Ardian must attend an important meeting early tomorrow. Aston had no choice but to.

In the morning, the Aston family was getting ready to return as well. All of their luggage had already entered the car. Daan was driving the car sitting next to Juan, and both of their parents were sitting in the back seat of the driver.

“stop.” Aston orders suddenly.

“what's the matter dear?” helen asked her husband.

“disable the car.” Aston orders again. Daan also pulled back his car.

Aston read the nameplate on the left side of the road that Audrey’s Bakkery.

“this is the store where I ordered the cake.” Reveal Helen while watching her husband who did not stop staring at the sign of the first name of the cake shop that is still closed.

“ada what's yah?” this time Juan asked.

“maybe just similar.” Inner Aston. Soon their car moved back.

One month passed, the announcement of student acceptance at Vivian's university was out. Vivian was very happy because she was accepted to study at the university. Vivian began to prepare for her needs. Together with his best friend Angel they decided to stay in the dormitory provided as a student facility. Today they are preparing to leave for the city center, where their university is located. Vivian majored in fashion design, as did Angel.

“Vivian call mom often?” cellyn said her two beads looked teary.

“mother of course, I will miss you very much.” Vivian hugged the body of her adoptive mother tightly, showering her face with a kiss.

The bus has arrived. It was so heavy that Cellyn took her daughter off. However, he believed, this was all for Vivian's future. Cellyn has the determination that Vivian succeeds and can become a successful person.
