Stay With You
When I’m With You

FIRST MEETING

NEWYORK PUBLIC LIBRARY

The wedding of Keith Maverick and Audrey Jackson.

Sean Maverick's tongue clucked, staring lazily at his flashing phone screen showing a photo of a beautiful girl named Britney.

Counted already the ten calls that the girl did but Sean was still lazy to answer the call of the girl.

Britney is the son of Augusta Maverick's client-the father who is infatuated with her.

Luckily the girl was still in high school so Charles Jhon-Britney's father couldn't possibly match the princess to Sean.

Wait until Augusta Maverick and Charles Jhon match Sean with Britney.

Sean will be the same fate as Keith-sang brother who married because of an arranged marriage.

But lucky for Keith to be betrothed to the beautiful girl a Lawyer who has a calm, graceful and elegant not like Britney whose behavior always makes Sean a headache.

Although beautiful but Britney is not the type of girl that likes Sean and he will reject the match with Britney no matter the reason.

Sean sneaks into the corner of the ballroom, there is a booze stand and he chooses to enjoy the wedding of Keith and Audrey from here.

Her net accidentally caught the figure of Britney who was in a daze looking for her.

Of course he was invited to the wedding of his brother because Charles John-Daddy Britney was a big client in the company of Augusta Maverick.

Sean reflexively got up from the chair, sneaking out towards the side door that could deliver him to a large garden.

He would hide there for a while until Britney and her parents returned home.

Sean walked long and fast along the side of the room with occasional looking back ensuring his escape was not known Britney.

Bugh!

Sean bumped into something for not focusing on looking ahead when stepping.

"Ups!" exclaiming a girl, her breast dress was doused in a drink from the glass she was holding because Sean hit her.

"Sorry!" Sean whispered, he panicked until rubbing the chest of the girl to remove the stain.

"Enough!" the jolt of the voice of the girl whose eyes blocked it out loud made Sean grow even more panicked and covered the girl's mouth with his palm.

"Don't be noisy!" Sean whispered, looking back to find out if the little girl's voice got the attention of the invited guests and Britney.

"Follow me" Sean said, pulling the girl's hand through the door after ensuring it was safe and Britney was still flirting on the other side of the room looking for her.

"Listen .. I'm sorry, I didn't accidentally." Sean held onto the arm of the girl who was still showing a beaver expression.

"Sorry for which one? Who hit me until my dress broke like this or because it touched my chest?" The sentence of the question in the form of innuendo made Sean raise both eyebrows confused.

It took him three seconds to realize that he had been carelessly touching the upper chest of the girl in panic.

Sean massaged his temples with tight eyes.

"I'm sorry for both of them .. I wasn't intentional."

"Sean!" call Britney from behind the door.

Sean pulled the girl's hand to hide behind a pillar.

His heart skipped a beat uncharacteristically, unknowingly for the second to have done something presumptuous by clutching the body of the girl who had spilled the drink so that Britney would not find them.

The girl's eyes were rounded, her hands clenched in front of Sean's chest and then gave a push but Sean held her back.

"Sttt!" hiss Sean, staring at the girl full of warning.

"Where are you?" Britney gave a long sigh.

While the girl that Sean was hugging was drowning in Sean's chest that field.

Can't move because Sean locked her in a hug.

Sean releases the girl after making sure Britney reenters the venue.

"Sorry, where were we?"

Plaque!

Sean felt his cheek hurt, the girl slapped him.

"What the fuck?" The man asked with an expression of disbelief.

"First ... You bumped into me. spilled a drink into my dress, second you held my chest very brashly and third you hugged me without permission." The girl immediately replied with a breath of hunting sheathed emotion.

"I'm sorry, I'm running away from a girl who's crazy about me and I have to make sure she doesn't see us, that's why I'm hugging you, that's a reflex .. sorry." Sean grimaced, scratching his non-itchy nape.

"Basic jerk!" curse the girl while glaring.

"Wait!" sergeant Sean blocked the girl's wrist.

"Princes!" The heavy voice of a man made the girl unravel to cuss Sean.

"Father!" The girl named Shamika Princes muttered as she saw the figure of her papa approaching.

"Mr Folke?" Sean greeted in a tone of disbelief as the client in his company turned out to be the father of the girl who had just slapped him.

"Mr Maverick!" Arjuna Bernard Folke said hello.

The man's face looks confused to see the princess being alone with her business client.

"Papa knows the same ...." Shamika Princes, the first daughter of Arjuna Bernard Folke an IT entrepreneur from Germany— points to Sean and his papa alternating with expressions of disbelief.

"Mr Maverick is Papa's business client ...." Arjuna Folke explained, a meaningful smile was printed on his handsome face.

"Do you know my daughter Mr Maverick?" Arjuna glanced at Sean's hand that was blocking Princes' hand.

"Ah sorry ... Mr. Folke, I'm sorry .. earlier I accidentally bumped into your daughter and spilled a drink onto her dress but I'll be in charge, next to this building is a boutique ... how about I replace your daughter's dress with a new one?"

Arjuna Folke turned to his daughter who was still grumbling in annoyance.

"How about Princes, you want to?" Arjuna Folke returned the offer to Princes.

Princess looked at Sean annoyed. "Of course he has to take responsibility, Papa."

"I'm going to choose a very expensive dress, let you know the taste," Princes said in his heart.

"Well then Mr. Folke, I'll take your daughter for a moment. Take it easy, I'll take care of her with my life."

Sean was exaggerated, he said it was only because it was not good to know the girl he had abused accidentally by holding his chest and hugging him was the daughter of his business client.

He had to silence the mouth of Shamika Princes so as not to complain to his father.

Hopefully the girl is like her lovers who can be bribed using branded goods.

Arjuna Folke laughed then nodded, the man who was still handsome in middle age moved docked to the wall to give way to his daughter and Sean.

"Wait for Princes yes, Pa ...."

"Yes dear."

Sean held the Princess by the wrist again, leading the girl to another important exit not to go through the venue because Britney might still be there.

"Remove you, don't hold on to it either." Princess sighed Sean's hand violently.

Princes uses Indonesian, the language of the birthplace of the Mama-Kejora Gunadhya.

Sean's steps came to a halt instantly, the man turned his head dramatically shrunken inward.

"What language is that?"

"You won't understand" said Princes, turning his face away, pulling a long step past Sean with an expression of judes.

Sean rotated his eyes panted but no doubt caught up with Princes who was a few steps ahead.

SECOND MEETING

DIAN BALLROOM, RAFFLES HOTEL JAKARTA

Baby Shower first daughter Kenzo Maverick.

Sean broke away from his family, just now he was willing to find a drink.

It wasn't really the drink Sean was looking for but a girl.

Sean has been learning Indonesian for a year, he is very determined to get the wife of a native Indonesian woman.

She fell in love with Indonesian beauty after meeting Jillian and Laura even though they were crossbreeds.

Jillian is the wife of Kenzo Maverick - Sean's half-sister and Laura are Sean's stepmother.

Augusta Maverick married her true-love Laura last year.

Sean wants his children to be as beautiful as Laura and Jillian if he later marries an Indonesian woman.

One drink was in Sean's grasp, the man walked quietly alone around the venue with his eyes guerrilla looking for prey.

Bugh!

"Yeah ...." A girl is pissing.

Sean bumped into the girl and spilled a drink on her chest because of her carelessness.

"I'm sorry .. I was not accidentally," said Sean using Indonesian, the man reflexively rubbed the chest of the girl who was hit by a spill from his glass.

The girl looked up, staring at Sean sharply filled with anger and hatred after he roughly sighed Sean's hand from his chest.

Wait, it looks like Sean had gotten that look before.

But when?

And where is it?

"You?" The girl pointed at Sean, her eyeballs were fiery and it seemed that in a moment her mouth would also spit out fire.

Sean remembered now, the girl was the daughter of his business client.

A year ago he spilled a drink on the chest.

"Kam—emmmpph."

Sean smothers the girl's mouth using a hand that embraces her shoulder.

Sean drags Shamika Princes outside the Ballroom.

Princes' much smaller body made it difficult to wriggle out of Sean's confinement which now half lifted Princes' body so they could quickly be outside before Mr. Folke saw them.

What should Sean say to his business clients?

Twice he spilled a drink on his daughter's dress.

"what are you doing?" princes snapped when they were already outside the Ballroom.

"I'm sorry, please don't be angry let alone complain to Mr. Folke .. I was completely unintentional." Sean begged and then Princes realized that the Caucasian man was fluent in Indonesian.

"Two times you spilled a drink on my chest." Princes raised two fingers, looking at Sean's anxious guts, constantly looking back.

Sean thinks that Mr. Folke and the Princes are coming to this party.

And he wanted to know why his client was at this party.

"I'll change .. I see in the hotel's lobby there's a boutique, let me take you there."

Princes glanced at the watch in his hand, the party was about to end but he was also unlikely to use a drink-dyed dress let alone the red color was in stark contrast to his broken white dress.

"Yes ... Go first!" exciting Princes ketus.

"OK .. I'll go first." Sean stepped first followed by Princes but suddenly stopped so that Princes hit his back.

"Why stop?" Princes groaned, his eyes bulging, both his hands clenched at the sides of the body.

The beautiful girl seemed to want to swallow Sean alive.

"I'm sorry again, and this ...." Sean opened his suit and covered the chest of Princes.

Princes' hand that had rubbed the forehead now turned to pull Sean's coat that almost sagged.

Sean replaced Princes' hand, wiping his forehead.

"ill? Sorry again, huh?" Sean grimacing.

The man leaned his head towards Princes face.

Princes was too slow to dodge until he felt a bang on his forehead.

The girl froze for a moment.

"Come ...," said Sean pulling the hands of Princes.

His heart skipped a beat, Shamika became confused because this debate was not caused by upset but there was a foreign feeling that he himself did not know what his name was.

Which must be able to reduce all his anger towards Sean.

"You ... Why was there at Kenzo's party?" Sean finally asked after seeing Princes calmer because he was choosing a new dress.

"You yourself why are you at Mr. Kenzo's party?" Princes asked back, his eyes focused on scanning every dress that was hanging neatly as his legs continued to slowly step down the hallway after the hallway.

"Kenzo my sister ...."

Princes immediately turned to look at Sean with a frown on his forehead.

"He's a son of my father but a different mother." Sean explained.

Princes only responded by forming his mouth like the letter O.

Turn her body and go back to choosing a dress.

"Hey ... You haven't answered my question yet, why did you get invited to this party?"

"I accompanied my cousin .. pretended to be her lover because her former fiance was also invited to this party." Princes answered casually, still busy choosing a dress.

"So, mister Folke isn't here?"

"No .. papa in Germany .. I'm on vacation here."

"Thankfullaaaah, and please don't tell your papa." Sean begged.

"Don't tell me which one? Who spilled my drink or held my chest?" Princes sarcasm.

"Once again I apologize for both and please don't tell your papa those two things."

"Hem." Princes rotates the eyeballs.

"I want this one ...." Princes held up one dress in her right hand.

"But I like this one too." Princes held up another dress in his left hand.

"But what the mannequin wears is good too." Princes sniffed towards the mannequin making Sean turn his head there.

"I'm confused which one to choose." Princes scrunched his face.

Sean who had returned the gaze to Princes found the girl's beautiful eyes as if saying 'I want all three'.

The man also sighed. "Take all three."

"Yeaaay, Thank you .. I won't say it to papa but I want those heels ... that and that too and that bag .. I haven't got that navy color."

Princes pointed to three heels at once and a production bag in the famous Negri to foreign countries and of course the price is also fantastic.

"Hey ... Do you want to take me or what?"

Princes smiled very sweetly and then gawked at the waiter wrapping his groceries and told the cashier to give his bill to Sean.

"Hey .. emmm ...." Sean chases Princes who is out of the boutique with new clothes and a hand full of paperbags.

Sean forgot the girl's name. "Miss Folke."

Sean calls Princes using the girl's clan.

"What?" Princes only glanced over without stopping his steps.

Very ignorant of himself when as many as tens of millions Sean spent his money for Shamika.

"How should I call you?"

"You just called me."

"Wait a minute." Sean's got Princes' hands on him.

Princes finally stopped the move.

"What's your name?" Sean asked again.

"For what? You're just papa's client and we won't see each other again."

Princes held Sean's hand.

"May we never see each other again." Princes stepped quickly into an elevator whose doors were open.

"Hey ..wait!" Sean does not catch up, the elevator door has been closed carrying Princes out of nowhere because Sean is sure the girl will not return to the Ballroom.

Inside the elevator, Princes smiled to himself. "Once ... twice can be said to be coincidental but if it happens three times, it means destiny and means you are my soul mate." Princes muttered along with the rest of the smile on his lips.
