Previous Night
TOK TOK TOK
"Lake in."
Atifa opened the door to her father's office
"Why haven't you slept?" ask Atifa with lips full of smile while walking to the sofa beside her papa.
"Not yet" said his father-Alvaro Antares Smith as he rose to the sofa where his only daughter was.
"What are you doing tomorrow night?" ask her father gently.
"Udah is very steady, pa," said Atifa while showing her two thumbs with a cheerful face
Alvaro smiled as he stroked his son's head full of affection.
"Emmm... Somebody wants you to talk to me about it" he said, looking at his daughter very seriously.
"What pa?" Atifa also now began to change her sitting position that had been leaning on the back of the sofa now she has upheld.
Alvaro exhaled softly as he continued to stare at his only heir.
"Papa wants to set you up with someone."
DEG
"Who's De with, Pa?" ask Atifa nervously. He wanted to refuse but was afraid. In his heart was already someone he could not forget.
"Papa's relation boy. Her name is Kendra Artha Mahendra." Alvaro's hand picked up the phone on his desk and started opening the gallery earlier. They took a picture together this afternoon.
DEG
Kendra's?
Are same? his mind is impatient.
"Papa has his picture" Alvaro said as he reached out to his mobile phone which already featured a photo of Kendra standing with his other business partners. Including himself.
DEG DEG DEG
Even in the photo there are also Aqil, Kalil and Kenan.
It feels like the heartbeat has broken through the entire contents inside his chest cavity.
"This one. How's it? You want?" point at him while raising his phone screen on Kendra's face.
His father stared fixedly at his son who had not yet answered. But the red hue on his cheeks and the smile on his lips made Alvaro sure his daughter would not refuse.
"They're my high school friends, Pa," he said honestly.
"Kendra, I've loved it since High School" he continued.
"really? It turns out that feeling papa connect to you yes," he said happily. In accordance with his expectations.
But then her happy face faded when she realized her daughter was now turning moody.
"Kendra likes my friend, Pa. He said they'd be engaged" she said in a soft voice.
"That means not engaged, right?" ask Alvaro to make sure.
After all, if you're engaged, Kiano must have invited her, right? alvaro's assumption in the heart.
"But, I haven't seen him in a long time, Pa," argued Atifa doubtfully
"We have a nice meeting tomorrow for him" Alvaro promised.
"Thank you, Pa," said Atifa. Her father will help her get Kendra.
"Pa, I still have our video that went viral first" Atifa said, showing two videos that went viral two years ago.
Alvaro looked at his daughter with a look of wonder.
"You know, I'm not wrong, am I hoping Kendra likes me too?" ask Atifa for an opinion.
Alvaro. He remembered his son was so famous six years ago. But at that time because of his busy life, also his daughter never discussed it, he had forgotten it.
Moreover, said his wife, the viral male lali is only the son of a doctor in a hospital. He underestimated a bit and thought there was no need to continue.
For him his daughter must get a prospective husband who is equivalent to his wealth with his family. If the family doctor, Alvaro is not interested at all.
But his wife was not entirely wrong. His mother was a well-known heart specialist, but his father was a respected conglomerate boy in the United States and Europe. Even his grandfather and great-grandfather were also very rich.
Fortunately, he was not too late. Not deliberately they are involved in cooperation and not intentionally, the man who wants to be betrothed to his daughter is his dream for a long time.
Alvaro saw the two videos again. In both videos his son is seen who began to be active on Kendra. But there was no rejection from the man for his daughter's touch.
Even the man seemed to welcome his attention a little.
"Because of Kendra you're a pianist?" guess the papa makes the red hue more and more of his daughter's cheeks.
Atifa simply nodded her head without answering. A feeling of shame and flowering spilled in his heart.
"Papa's tomorrow will make him unable to refuse you" promised Alvaro to make the happiest smile on Atifa's lips.
"Thank you, Pa."

Tonight Kendra and Salma join their parents.
The party was conducted in a super magnificent five-star hotel. This hotel belongs to the party organizers. Alvaro Antares Smith, the owner of the Eleven group, which already owns the company even in Europe and America.
When Kiano and his family arrived, Alvaro Antares Smith immediately welcomed his own guests.
He said his wife was helping with his daughter's preparations.
Kiano and Aruna also with their children gathered with their friends who had come.
There are Glen and Almira, Alva and Tamara, Reno and Rain as well as Riko and Meti.
"The same Regan didn't come?" asked Kendra who did not see the presence of the two.
"Kalo Arga said, her mother Qonita suddenly visited," explained Glen
"Ooo."
"Sister Regan asked me to represent him, Kak Kiano," explained Riko made Kiano a mangosteen.
"Reval's not coming?" ask Kiano again.
"Come on. He's dating again," Riko cheered. The others also chuckled.
"Eh, Tamara, your eyelashes are almost gone" whispered Aruna very slowly.
"Haaa... Peehuuh. Alva asked me to make this. He said he bought a limited edition. But from home I've not been sreg," Tamara's scolding was a bit panicked.
Aruna smiled.
"Come, I take you to the toilet to help you really first" said Aruna who was immediately embraced by Tamara
"Where are you? Soon the show will start," hold Kiano when he sees Aruna and Tamara leaving
"Yes, where are you going?" alva asked in astonishment.
"To the restroom," said Aruna. While Tamara did not answer, she was still upset because Alva forced the false eyelashes on her.
Arriving at the toilet, Aruna immediately straight fix the eyelashes until attached perfectly.
"You are more beautiful, Tamara," praised Aruna making Tamara's pouting face fade and change with a smile.
"Thank you, Runa."
"same. Let's go back there again. Kiano said the show was about to start."
"okay." They must quickly return if that or Alva her husband will nag.
But when they were about to come out, Aruna's gaze was rubbed with one of her songong patients.
"Lhoo... who's the doctor here with?" sapa Syarifa was friendly but seemed confused. The event is devoted to entrepreneurs who are successful at least the Asian level. But if for those who work with fellow doctors, it is not possible to get this exclusive invitation.
But Syarifa kept her friendly tone as the host.
Tamara glared her cynical gaze at the woman who seemed to be this walking branded shop.
"Your son is coming too?" tanya Syarifa changed the topic because she felt uncomfortable with Tamara's cynical gaze.
"Come," said Aruna slowly.
"Where is he? I will introduce you to my husband. My husband really likes smart young people" he replied excitedly.
Tamara again looked at the woman in front of her with a look of disdain.
Who is this, anyway? Does he really not know who Aruna and her family are? decih Tamara does not like it.
"That's necessary. My son is now working" replied Aruna, wanting to leave. He doesn't like to talk about it. His patients have not been to him in the hospital in recent years. Reportedly moved abroad. But why come back? aruan could not remain silent.
"At the hospital?" the question is somewhat humbling.
"But it seems like I saw it a while ago. It looks like your child is just an ordinary employee" he continued.
Aruna did not answer. Tamara felt strange hearing it.
"Sorry doctor. I don't mean to be arrogant. My daughter is only one. He's the heir to this group. It is better for the doctor's child to work with my husband, so it will not be awkward if their relationship is closer," he explained when Aruna had stopped her steps.
Tamara's jaw almost heard it. He's speechless.
What does Aruna mean? Kendra's?
Tamara begins to believe that the woman in front of her wants Kendra. Looks like this woman mistook Aruna's social status.
"I was deliberately waiting for your son to graduate from his college. My daughter also finished her studies. I think maybe it's time to talk about our child's relationship going forward."
Aruna felt uncomfortable talking about such an important matter near the entrance of the toilet.
But let it be, he must finish it immediately, before this patient gets more embarrassed.
"You misunderstood. My son Kendra is engaged to my best friend's son. Just a few days ago."
"Oooh, so?" the answer is, at all, no offense has been rejected.
"When I once asked you to consider seeds, bebet and weights in finding a wife. Why do you choose Kendra match with ordinary people, but if with my daughter will be able to raise your son's degree. He'll be our heir."
Tamara was eager to laugh out loud when she heard the word. You know Tamara now, if the woman in front of him does not know exactly who Aruna and Kendra are. Maybe just know if Kendra is just an ordinary doctor's child.
"We don't need it. The filler," replied Aruna was already careless and lazy to serve his patients again.
Before turning her body, Tamara put on a mocking smile for the woman who replied to her with a frown.
They who? Why are we invited? inner again. Because I never saw the doctor Aruna and her friend at the social gathering.
"She's so sick," Tamara's laughter began to be held back.
Aruna also laughs, although still a little cobbled.
"Regan and Dinda should have come here with Zayra. Let him pull again his arrogant speech," interrupted Tamara again still with laughter that rattled.
"Yes, we were supposed to pick up Zayra" Aruna said somewhat regretfully.
"A long time ago" said Alva when he saw Tamara and Aruna just returned.
"What a matter of fact, the show has just begun," defended Kiano while pulling Aruna in his arms.
Meanwhile, after her mother and the twins left, Kendra approached the twins and Rakha.
"Aqil didn't come?" kendra asked, astonished not to see it. He also did not hear his parents talk because he had sent a message to Zayra.
^^^Kendra^^
^^^ I arrived at the venue^^^
Kendra waited for the reply until a while later. His lips smiled as if he saw Zayra typing her message.
Zayras
Oh yes
Doang? his lips smiled slanted. Then he kept his phone.
"Said Aqil, his grandmother suddenly came from Surabaya. So om and aunt cancel their departure" explained Kenan
"Khanza and Zayra also did not come, yes" Kalil said.
"Yes, if Khanza is lazy said, later betrothed," kekeh Kalil, still clearly remember the word nyolot Khanza when he called earlier. Ask for his presence.
"Kalo Zayra, already represented by Om Riko and Aunt Meti," explained Kendra.
"Ooh."
"The main event has already begun" Kenan said when he heard the sound of the piano clink.
The amu also began to clap when the classical music was sung.
"As familiar as it is," said Kalil.when he saw the girl whose finger seemed to dance with agility playing the tuta tuts piano.
"Honey his face down so invisible," said Rakha curious.
Kendra who used to play the piano only saw it at a glance.
"The game is good. It's worth the award" Kenan commented.
"Yes" Kalil said.
"This party is said to welcome the arrival of his daughter. Who, the hell is that daughter?" ask Rakha curious.
You see, said his daddy, his daughter is very beautiful and can maen piano. Maybe occasionally can join their band that has been a long time vacuum.
"Gue also doesn't know," replied Kalil rather lazily.
Before long the beautiful game was finished. The clap back rumbled.
Finished the thunderous clap, the MC began to speak with a cheerful look.
"Said Mr. Alvaro's daughter so idolized someone that she decided to seriously study the piano" the beautiful mc's laughter also invited the guests' laughter.
"He used to be a very handsome high school friend of his. The intention of Mr. Alvaro's daughter if she can want to play the piano together with him," explained the MC then.
And so do the guests. They are just as smiling.
"Even six years ago they went viral in a very sweet scene."
**DEG
DEG**
Kendra cs looks at each other. So did Kiano and his friend.
There was no good feeling enveloping them.
"Sweet, right, they are" exclaimed the MC on a huge protective screen that was on stage, next to princess Alvaro and her piano.
The screen was also showing Alvaro's daughter's piano game so that it can be seen by all guests.
Now the screen is showing a pension event at their High School that had gone viral. Even the two videos have been put together and started showing how Kendra is playing the piano.
A loud cry sounded immediately.
Kendra who felt trapped stared angrily at her papi
"But don't know what," his papyri argued.
Neither did Glen and the others seem annoyed. The video leaves Regan and the family with no news for six years.
"Afia?" kalil did not believe.
Since when can this girl play the piano? inner wonder.
Kendra and her friends looked at each other, not expecting to see Atifa again in a moment like this.
They were all in shock.
Plus arriving at the light now illuminates Kendra, making the gaze of the guests turn to focus on her.
"And not unexpectedly, it turns out that the man who went viral with Alvaro's daughter is the son of Mr. Kiano Artha Mahendra," exclaimed the MC very excited.
Almost all the guests clapped their hands with focused gazes at Kendra.
"It's really unexpected, yeah. A soul mate is nowhere."
"Come on Kendra. Please play piano with Mr. Alvaro's daughter, Atifa. You're a very compatible couple" continued the MC with a passion for pumping.
Guests also began to complain about the name Kendra many times with great excitement.
