Pink pants
I guessed it!

"Are you okay? Is anyone hurt?" Marcel asked while checking Alya's condition which was still frightened by the incident, but Rudy had left a while ago from his home.

"Thank you for helping me, I'm sorry for not believing what you told me about Rudy, I was stupid, I am naive and I am too easy to believe and also easily deceived also used by people, I am ashamed," said Alya, explained, this time he felt really ashamed of Marcel and also felt sorry for what he had done.

"You can be angry and curse me, however you like, I'm a fool!" she looked up again, her eyes were teary, and she was tired of everything that happened with her life.

His life turned to hell after he found pink pants in Ivan's car at that time, since then one by one his suffering and life problems came to one another, it was as if the pink pants were a curse to him as the opening gate of his life's suffering.

The pink pants that were the beginning of the calamity of life that submerged him in the sadness and bitterness that seemed now endless.

"Nobody will get angry and curse at you, I care about you," Marcel hugged Alya's body which was like losing its grip on life, feeling tired of everything that happened.

"I think my life will end in Rudy's hands, hicks," Alya said between sobs that now broke in Marcel's chest.

"Isn't it good that your life ends with your helper who's always been nice to you?" Ejek Marcel's.

"Mas, don't make fun of me!"

Marcel jerked away Alya's body that had been stuck in his chest, then he looked deeply into Alya's eyes that now look moist because the woman continued to cry despite whether to cry for what.

"Tell me again, what did you call me just now?" Asked Marcel who had long felt not to hear Alya call him 'gold' as they were when they were still lovers first.

"What the hell," Alya blushed, she snickered and left Marcel who was smiling to himself.

"Come on, call me like I just now, I want to hear it, hurry, call one more time" said Marcel as he hurriedly followed Alya who went into the kitchen to grab a drink, his throat suddenly felt hot and dry from enduring the embarrassment.

I don't know the idea of where Alya suddenly called Marcel 'gold' like that, maybe because Marcel's embrace made him think back to the times they were still dating, so that his mouth was not conditioned to the lethargy of calling Marcel with that call.

"Alya, can I ask you something?" asked Marcel who was answered with a nod Alya resignedly, this time he did not want to hide anything more from Marcel.

"Are you and Rudy really a couple?" marcel was doubtful.

Suddenly Alya laughed amusedly while opening her refrigerator, then took out a bowl of leftover soup a few days ago made by Rudy.

"It's all because of this!" Alya then threw the soup in the bowl into the sink.

"Yes, and because of you too! At that time I was curious and confused who cooked the soup when I was sick, Rudy admitted that it was the cuisine, the food, but I also accidentally heard your chat with Darma saying that if the soup was you who cooked it, I wanted to trap Rudy, I told him to re-cook me the soup he had made, if she wanted me to accept her love, because Rudy kept urging me on and asking me to be her lover, and it turned out that she could make that soup, unfortunately also the taste of the soup was exactly the same as the taste of the soup that I had eaten when I was sick, at that time Rudy concluded that we had been made, even though I didn't reject it or agree to it." Alya Beber.

"You fool, of course, cooking such a standard soup is trivial for Rudy, especially he had worked as an assistant chef at a famous restaurant when his company was declared bankrupt." bright Marcel.

"Assistant chef? How do you know all that? Why do I not even know?"

"I found out and looked for all the information about him, where maybe I gave you to a random man, from the beginning I was suspicious of him, so I decided to cooperate with Persada." answer Marcel.

"Hmmm, apparently he already knew that you and I had been close and he had planned everything, approaching me to use me so that he could make it to Salim group." Beber Alya recounted the confession she had heard from Rudy's mouth directly while sealing and intimidating him.

"I've guessed, she must know how much I still love you so she'll definitely get everything she wants if she uses you." Seloroh Marcel's.

"Buck!" Alya threw the napkin lying on her dining table. "Still in love, instead of leaving for an ex-wife," Alya murmured.

"I have a reason, didn't I say that if I would explain it to you later when we both met Sita, didn't you believe me?" Marcel approached and cupped both of Alya's cheeks with both of her palms.

"I was so angry and jealous when that little prickly hand touched your cheek, I just wanted to break it, did he do something else to you?" Marcel asked in a slightly annoyed tone as he recalled the incident earlier.

Alya shook her head, "No, it's lucky that you arrived at the right time and saved me, making Rudy not do anything further, but didn't you just go home, why did you come back again?"

"Maybe because God wants us to be together again, together again like we used to be, even if the road has to be this bittersweet, I love you, I won't let you stay away from me anymore, I'm not going to do anything stupid to make me feel tormented by your loss, I really love you" one sweet kiss completes the sweet words that came out of Marcel's lips that night, there was no rejection from Alya, because what Marcel felt was honestly the same as what Alya felt, he also did not want to lose and was far from the man who was now kissing his lips with that affection.

A new journey for them seems to be starting again soon, not too late to fix everything, improve relationships that have been interrupted due to various misunderstandings and selfishness, he said, but isn't it with all those mistakes that they can finally learn and realize how much they need and want each other.

Although maybe their love journey will not be as beautiful as the world of novels.

"Damn,, how dare Marcel vain it really cut off cooperation with the press, he also proved his words by instigating the project givers, dogs,, just be careful,,,,,,, you know,,, I'll race everything!" Shouted Rudy who had just received a termination letter from the Salim group, not to mention some projects that entered his company were suddenly canceled for no apparent reason, and Rudy believes it was Marcel who proved his threat, moreover, Alya has now resigned from Persada also refused to be met by him so he could not use Alya again to persuade Marcel.

"I'll reward you, just wait!" furious Rudy.
