The atmosphere inside Aaron's apartment was still quiet. Just the clock ticking on the wall. Claudia and Aaron returned to throw one another a glance, but still none of them intended to open their voices. Claudia herself was still hugging Melody who since coming out of Matthew's apartment had not spoken a word. Melody still seemed to be in a deep shock. The girl was just saying clean up at Aaron's apartment, change clothes, and cry again until as much as Claudia hugs.
Tong!
The sound of the bell at the door made Aaron and Claudia flinch together. The two of them returned to throw one another a glance and the question inside their heads both seemed to be the same.
Who's coming?
"You invited someone to your apartment?" Claudia asked a little whispered to Aaron.
"No! Maybe Dean. I open for a moment" said Aaron as he walked towards the door. Aaron opens the door to his apartment and immediately looks like a man wearing a neat shirt. His face was a little familiar. But Aaron forgot who this guy was.
"Sorry, is this really Aaron Hernandez' apartment?" Ask the man while looking at his phone screen.
"Yes! I'm Aaron Hernandez. You're who?" Ask Aaron full of questions.
"I'm Abrisam. Is Miss Melody here?" Asked the man named Abrisam whose face looked worried.
Abrisam's?
Sam's?
Assistant Mr. Aaron Setyawan!
Holy hooch! Why could Aaron forget this assistant of his future father-in-law!
Uh!
"Yes, he's here. But how did you get" Aaron hasn't finished his sentence when Abrisam aka Sam just walked into Aaron's salutation apartment.
You are not polite!
"Melody!" Call Sam who was immediately surprised when he saw two Melody who were hugging on the sofa.
One is Miss Claudia. But why is that young lady already here as well? Has Aaron been Miss Claudia's affair all this time?
"Brah!" Sapa Claudia who seems also surprised by the arrival of Sam in Aaron's apartment. Who invited him?
Claudia was still struggling with the question in her head, when suddenly Melody had escaped from Claudia's embrace and ran over to Sam. The girl immediately burst into tears in Sam's arms, as if there was something between the two people.
So, what has Claudia been missing for almost a month?
Sam guided Melody back to sit on the sofa and the man also occasionally looked at Claudia with a strange look, as if Claudia was a criminal.
What's Claudia's fault now?
"Have you finished your vacation, Miss Claudia?" Asked Sam in a quip.
"I've been trying to come as soon as possible after Aaron told me! But I'm still late!" Claudia's looking for a defense.
"I'm really sorry, Mel!" Claudia continued to say full regret to Melody.
Yes, if Claudia wasn't cheap and sold a little expensive to Matthew and didn't let the man fuck her all the time, Melody wouldn't have been Matthew's victim, even if they were switched yesterday. But it's all gone and Melody's the victim now. Belonging to Melody will also never return to perfect as ever.
Rice really has become porridge!
"I want to go home" Melody said to Sam.
"I'll take you home" replied Sam whose heart also hurt. It is undeniable that Sam has actually started to fall in love with Melody.
Absolutely on Melody and not at all on Claudia!
"Mel, I'm still in ru-"
"Hello, Nice! What's up?" Aaron's voice that was picking up the phone from Good made Claudia not to continue her sentence.
Nice calling!
Must have been worried because Claudia and Aaron had left in a hurry without saying goodbye.
"Mas, Mas Andez went to the hospital, didn't he? Why isn't Mel in the hospital, huh? I didn't want to go home either."
"Yes, it's Melody again the same as me! Is Ayana awake?" Ask Aaron at Good.
"Yes, Budhe has woken up and is looking for Ms. Mel now. I'm bringing Madam Mel here right now, yeah!"
"What flight does that mean, Mas? Where did Andez take Mbak Mel? Andez, don't fuck around!"
"Not anywhere! I'll take Melody home as soon as possible. You give me what reason it used to be to Bu Ayana! Okay, Bhay!" Aaron hung up the phone from Bagus and realized that everyone in his apartment was looking at Aaron right now.
Whahuh?
"Mother why?" Ask Melody who first opened her voice.
"Mommy was hospitalized for being accidentally stabbed by a knife, Mel."
"What?" Melody's cry almost broke as Aaron continued Melody's explanation.
"Mum Ayana's condition has improved, Mel! So don't worry!"
"Aaron's right! Mom is already going through a critical period and is awake," Claudia looked at Aaron to make sure.
"Yes, Ms. Ayana is awake and awake." Timpal Aaron fast.
"But how did the two of you know about Melody's mother's condition?" Sam asked staring alternately at Aaron and Claudia.
This couple is suspicious.
"I don't know how to explain it either, Sam! But yesterday when I was on vacation I got lost in a village, and then there I was thought to be Melody by everyone, so I was forced to become Melody" Claudia said grimacingly.
"They both switched positions I think" Aaron chimed in on Claudia's explanation.
"So all this time, Miss Claudia stayed in the village and replaced me?" Melody asked with a look of disbelief.
"I'm waiting for you to come home, because if I go straight away, I'll be sad again" Claudia said.
"Mother thought something bad happened to you after your quarrel with that old man Seno! I got sick and looked for you. Then it was nice to meet me at the airport by accident and your cousin thought I was you, so he took me home, and you know what happened next," claudia said the chronology of her being a Melody for a few weeks
"The same goes for Lord Aaron's bodyguard who found Melody in the terminal and thought that Melody was you, Miss Claudia!" Sam chimed in on Claudia's story.
Melody approached Claudia and gave Claudia the phone she had been wearing.
"I'll go back to being Melody and go home to see mom. Thank you for ruining my life" said Melody, who was like a jolt to Claudia.
Yep!
Indirectly Claudia who has made Melody lose her crown. If Claudia could take care of herself more and not be a lazy woman.
"Mel-" Claudia was completely at a loss for words now.
"I'm really sorry, Mel!" Claudia finally regretted. Melody just kept quiet and did not answer a word. The room momentarily became quiet.
"I've booked you a plane ticket, Melody," Aaron said, breaking the silence.
"The plane leaves in an hour" Aaron continued.
"I'll take Melody home" said Sam, still holding Melody. There seems to be something between the two of them.
Sam tidied Melody's scattered hair and wiped the remains of the tears on the girl's face with the tissue that Claudia had proffered.
"Melody hasn't eaten since, Sam! Persuade her to eat and apologize" Claudia whispered to Sam before the man grabbed Melody out of Aaron's apartment.
Sam just nodded and immediately said goodbye to Claudia and Aaron. Melody was silent and again did not say a word.
Yep!
Anyone would be shocked and devastated if they were in Melody's position!
