Soul Change
Just a Passing Coincidence

Since he came here yesterday, I think I can see him again here!

Stefani kicked a pebble that had a path. He can't wait any longer, because the possibility of meeting people who don't like him is also more. He will try to wait for tomorrow to come back.

“Someone if you wait for me here, is that right?”

Stefani was aghast, surprised by a voice she had not expected at all. He hoped that the only sound he heard was imagination. But the sound was too real. Too close and not expected.

“Sorry, I'm not looking for you at all Mr. Brian. I'm looking for someone but not you.” Stefani is convinced that he has to put limits on himself and Brian.

“Until the end you remain ignorant! You don't know where you're supposed to be!”

Stefani did not want to be taught his own existence at all. He had memorized those words too much. He was concerned about his own existence.

“Then excuse me Mr Brian! Looks like the person I'm looking for isn't here!”

Brian apparently didn't let Stefanie just walk away. Soon he catches Stefani's wrist and jerks it to stay where it was. “Where do you think you want to go?” ask Brian with a frenzy.

Stefani was pulled hard, feeling her wrists hurt. His eyes became hot.

“Until the end you still act childish huh?”

Stefani looks at Daisy, side-by-side where she turns before disappearing. The mistress looked upset. He moved quickly closer to Stefani and Brian and soon afterwards grabbed Stefani by the hand, letting go of Brian.

“Don't call me childish!” Brian looked offended not to accept.

“Oh, yes, then what should I call you? Boy?”

Brian nodded unhappily. He quickly moves away from where Daisy and Stefani are now. As he was about to disappear into the economics faculty building, Brian stopped and turned his head. Daisy can tell that the problem with Brian isn't necessarily solved.

“You don't have to thank me. I just happened to pass by,” Daisy said as she went again towards the right side of the faculty building.

“Why are you squatting here?”

Stefani pulled both of her legs closer to her body. He doesn't want to be found, not this fast.

His father and brother said something evil earlier. They said that's why my mother died. Being born into the world was not Stefani's choice. If only he knew he would live like this, he would have chosen not to be born.

“Are you guests Daisy?”

Stefani thinks he's been abandoned because he didn't. However, this person remained near him. His voice sounded like a man. Is that one of the servants at the party?

“Ti-dak, I stay here,” he replied.

Stefani's throat hurts, his nose is stuck, his head is heavy too. He decided to move away, stopped hiding in a place this person could quickly see.

“I know Daisy doesn't have a brother!”

This guy doesn't even know anything about anyone who lives in this house. Stefani has no desire to explain to the person who constantly asks him to talk even if he is not invited.

“There are four pavilions behind the house, I live there,” Stefani said.

He intended to leave, still his body did not want to hear this time. His eyes were fixed on the young man standing in front of him, dashing, so two words were describing this person. But this man is Daisy's friend. Daisy's friend no one likes Stefani.

“Daisy once said that. I'm Mahardika, Daisy's fiancee!” The person in front of Stefani identified himself, smiling as if he and the girl in front of him had the same degree.

“I was walking around because it was so crowded inside. Daisy is the center of attention today. Why are you here and ... crying?”

Stefani was aghast, remembering that she had not wiped her tears properly. This gurgle used both of his hands to wipe away the tears.

“Use this!” Mahardika offers a handkerchief.

Some doubt Stefani accepted, but Mahardika still insisted on giving. “Thank you,” says Stefani. “I'll give it back later!”

Mahardika. “Not necessary. I just happened to pass.”

Then Mahardika waved, leaving Stefani alone.

The woman received a report back from her trusted servant at home. A woman who has not borne a single child from her husband, but strives to be a good mother to her stepson.

“So everything is under control, yes?”

“Yes, Mrs Aida, Young Miss must be very surprised by this party!” said the waiter he asked.

Aida nodded, feeling pleased. She knew that she would never be considered a good mother to Daisy, but she tried so hard.

“Daisy came home this afternoon, right?”

The servant she asked was silent. It seems to have been expected that even going home Daisy would not immediately show her nose in front of her stepmother.

“It's okay, he already promised to have dinner with us this morning,” said Aida recollecting when she took Daisy off the terrace this morning.

The waiter nodded and smiled. “We prepared the best dinner, Madam, Miss and Tuan must be happy!”

Aida nodded again. She hopes everything goes well today so her husband and Daisy's relationship will come back better.

“Ah .. apparently you are here, Aida.”

Aida gasped in disbelief and then smiled happily at the appearance of the man who had won her heart. Her husband, who was supposed to be home the latest after Daisy was home, has shown up. The handsome man approached, giving Aida a warm kiss.

“Not Mas Ibnu came home the most late afternoon?” ask Aida to be curious.

“You make a surprise,” replied Ibn who once again kissed his wife.

Aida laughed, leading her husband to sit by her side. “Later at dinner don't get mad at Daisy huh?” her door.

“If he is not polite to you anymore, of course I will be angry with him!” Ibn leaned back, clutching the fingers of his second wife who was married a year after his first wife died. “You have sacrificed a lot for him.”

Aida. “It's only natural that he can't love me, Mas, I'm a stranger who suddenly enters into his life. She must have been very surprised.”

Ibn sighed deeply and then kissed Aida's hand slowly. “I hope there is something that will make him realize that the things done are in vain. You love him well, I know it.”

Aida chuckled a little. He doesn't need an award like that. She just wants Daisy to accept her as a mother. Aida hoped that what Ibnu hoped would happen, so that the happy family dreamed of would come true.

“The scenario is set up, right, Mas?” ask Aida with enthusiasm.

Aida could see a confused expression on Ibnu's face and suddenly a pale mimic appeared instantly there as well. “I forgot, Aida!” panicked shouting.
