Stranger's In Love
17|DRUNK

For a few days, Irene spent time at home. He did not come to work after the incident in which Zean made out with another woman. Alice always asks why Irene doesn't go to the office. The girl tells Alice that Zean gave her a sabbatical because Zean had no business trip for the month.

Today's night is Zean and Rebecca's engagement. Irene got her invitation, even Alice also had time to invite her to come together, but Irene refused on the grounds of not feeling well and eventually Alice went with Gerald. Not forgetting, Hans offered to come together but Irene also rejected him, saying the same reason.

Irene sat on the balcony, staring at the dark sky with a sprinkling of stars that decorated the beautiful sky. It seems like nature also supports the engagement, tonight is different, tonight is so beautiful. Irene smiled remembering the moment Zean who had casually kissed her first. Irene misses Zean, misses her words, misses her every touch and even misses the smell of Zean's body that always makes her comfortable. Irene closed her eyes and hugged herself, she could feel the gusts of wind that were embracing her.

"Damn! I miss u so bad, Arzean Lorwerth" he said and reopened his eyes.

Irene was fed up, completely fed up with the sense that was tormenting her at the moment. Longing too presumptuous, coming and freely entering his control. Right now, just the one he wanted, turned back the clock before he knew Zean. Because before Zean got into her life, Irene had never felt this much pain. There was no love to torment her, like the love Zean introduced.

Irene turned to stare at the screen of her phone, she stared at the number showing at 10:00 pm. Then his finger clicked on the contact menu, searched for someone's name, and then clicked on the call.

"Hello, Hans" said Irene.

"What's up, Irene? Are you all right?" hans asked worriedly across the phone.

"I want to go to the club, but I don't want to go alone tonight" Irene said.

"Go away. After the show's over, I'll catch up with you" Hans said, then disconnected.

Irene sighed then widened her smile, tried to calm herself down and prepared to go to the club. Irene had thought earlier, she must not continue like this. Life is still long, if he stops at Zean then his world will collapse.

🍂🍂🍂

Zean stood in his formal suit in front of a woman in a dress that wrapped her body beautifully, yes, that woman was Rebecca. They held hands, exchanged rings. Several times Zean brushed aside her thoughts that kept twisting Irene's shadow, imagining that the girl she loved was standing before her, wearing a dress that matches her formal suit and exchanging rings ties the relationship before pledging love at a wedding someday.

Rebecca smiled as Zean finished pinning the ring on her ring finger. The boisterous applause of the invited guests seemed to echo in the room in the elegant decorations after they finished exchanging rings. Rihanna is so happy today that her only son is engaged to Rebecca Hillton, daughter of Monica Hillton and Patrick Hillton. Rihanna could breathe a sigh of relief, as she soon only needed to think about her son's wedding. Rihanna hopes Zean can be happy with Rebecca, because she believes the daughter of her best friend is a good woman. While Grissham, Zean's father, is not too concerned about Zean. Grissham gave Zean the freedom to make his choice of heart, provided that Zean remained the successor to his business.

Rihanna and Monica have been best friends since taking the High School. Zean and Rebecca were introduced a long time ago. In fact they are often asked to go out together, but Zean often refuses on the grounds of being busy taking care of his work. Rihanna is a supermom who is arguably a perfectionist, she loves Zean very much and always directs Zean to obey him. And yes, Zean always obeyed Rihanna's wishes especially because of the state of her mother who was paralyzed due to the accident they experienced, Zean always felt guilty.

"Congratulations, you are a very, very, very compatible couple" Monica congratulated them.

Zean walked away from the room, and answered a call from Hans.

"There's ap-"

"You need to hurry to the club! I can't handle it on my own, he's totally crazy about you" Hans cut across the phone and disconnected the phone.

The deg! Zean was worried, without hesitation he left the event that was already finished at the core event that was exchanging rings.

Zean parked his car, and he immediately entered the club. The sound of music and the smell of drinks welcomed his arrival. Zean's gaze was busy sweeping through the club, trying to find Hans' whereabouts. He squinted his eyes at the scene on the dance floor there was a girl who was familiar to him. The girl nimbly danced to the music regardless of dozens of pairs of eyes that freely stared intensely at each curve of the girl's beautiful body.

Zean's jaw hardened, and he wanted to see dozens of pairs of eyes staring at the girl. Zean was jealous, angry, upset or rather he was not willing, the girl became a spectacle of many people. Yeah, that girl, Irene Banner. Zean walked through the crowd of people blocking his path. He could see there was also Hans who desperately tried to lower Irene from the top of the dance floor, but Irene dodged, she was unconscious, she was drunk.

"Irene, let's go down! You look like a stupid girl up there!" hans said for the umpteenth time. But Irene did not care, the influence of alcohol was stronger than her concern for her pride which was being a spectacle at the time.

"What happened to him?" zean asked in a loud voice like shouting because of the loud music, now he was behind Hans.

Hans turned his head, as did Irene who finally stopped her action after hearing the voice of the man she so longed for. Irene smilingly looked at Zean with a shaky body, her head dizzy from the influence of alcohol.

"Zean" called out to the spoiled Irene while extending her hands as if she wanted to hug Zean, she was completely drunk.

Zean grabbed Irene by the arm, then carried her alay bridalstyle. Irene directly poked her hand around Zean's neck, holding on as she was completely drunk.

"It seems like he just wants you. I started screaming until my vocal cords were about to break, but Irene didn't care" Hans complained.

"I'll take care of him" Zean said as he left.

"Take Irene anywhere, just don't take her home. Because Alice could be enraged to see Irene like this" Hans told Zean, the man nodded and left the club.
