Brakk!
Everyone gasped in shock when Shaka suddenly hit the table very hard, his face flushed red as he held a huge annoyance.
"Disha! what the fuck?!" Renata reprimanded with a stern expression, "This is the dining table. Have you forgotten to maintain your attitude while eating?"
"But you guys are also overdoing it, this is the dinner table why talk about such useless stuff?!"
"Geek!" fiona's turn was glaring sharply, warning her.
Matilda smiled uneasily, she was trying to win this heated situation. "Hahaha, it's okay brother-in-law, Fiona. It's also my fault for talking about something like this at the dinner table."
"Don't apologize Matilda, it's not anyone's fault.There's nothing wrong with your proposal" Renata said.
Shaka frowned. "Bune ... "
"Here you go, son, let's just talk about everything here. It's important, you have a matching partner" Renata said back while glancing at Kirana.
"That's what mom said, right Shaka," Fiona said.
"Your marriage to Kirana is also only on paper. If you marry again, it's not a mistake."
Kirana crept hard at the end of the dress she was wearing, her heart was like sliced so slashing, added Shaka who was just silent only added to the wound in her heart, it was as if the man himself was sprinkling salt in his wound.
Shaka screeched, he threw his face away, scowling. "As much as you!" the man then left, leaving many questions hanging, and everyone was astonished.
Now that Fiona, Matilda, Olivia and Renata were at the dining table, Kirana lowered her head holding tightness on her finger, while Matilda and Fiona silently glanced at each other while showing a triumphant smile, while, Olivia herself left the dining table area shortly after Kirana left.
The sky outside was getting cloudy, the dark clouds dominating bringing lightning and rain that were ready to drench the earth, as well as the wounds that Kirana was carrying, the woman paused for a moment at the door of her room, which she was waiting for, her tears could not stand, Kirana was crying all over there. Olivia who had been following Kirana had also stopped her steps, her gaze was so full to see Kirana, seconds later the shoulder-haired woman approached making Kirana surprised after getting a subtle touch on her shoulder, kirana's spring wiped her tears with the back of her hand.
"K-you? ... "
Olivia sighed softly, then approached rubbing Kirana's shoulder.
"I don't know what's going on between you, but-if it hurts you can tell me" Olivia said empathetically.
"Why did you turn nice like this on me?" kirana asked in astonishment.
Olivia was initially quite surprised by the question asked by Kirana until finally the woman smiled gently.
"Since the beginning of your arrival, I did not like you but that does not mean I hate you, sorry I could not defend you earlier .... "
"What's wrong, I get it, both you and I have no power here." Kirana looked down again while wiping away her tear marks.
Olivia then led Kirana to sit on the sofa in Kirana's room, the woman saw the state of the room that is now a place for Kirana to take shelter and then shook her breath again, he had heard a lot about the recent events and was very regretful about the change in attitude of family members including Shaka himself, to Kirana.
Then Olivia brought a glass of water that she took from the glass pitcher available there, giving it to Kirana so that the woman could be a little calmer.
After a while, Olivia opened the conversation.
"Can you tell me what really happened?"
At first Kirana was silent, a little stunned by what Oliva said, but after a few seconds she began to think, here she had no friends or place to tell a story, there was no harm if he trusted Olivia even though there was a little misunderstanding between them.
Looking at the other expression Kirana showed, Olivia smiled. "It's okay if you don't want to tell a story. But I'm here to be your friend Kirana, we can be friends to share stories with. There are times when we are not that strong and need someone to be able to share the story."
Upon hearing those words, Kirana's tears broke, seconds after seconds passed in sadness as Kirana told what had happened to Olivia.
"I don't know why all this happened, it was still good at first -" Kirana shook her head unable to continue her words.
"Surely something has happened, as all this was planned,"
"Whatever happens later, you should be prepared for Kirana for the possibility of something big that could come your way, but don't worry, from now on I will be here to accompany you, Kirana."
Kirana felt moved, she also felt a little relieved after talking to Olivia, for the first time Kirana finally had a friend who was willing to share her complaints with her.
"Thank you Olivia ... "
Olivia nodded, for the first time she was also happy, after a long time feeling like a bird in a cage, she now found a friend and she never thought, she never thought, the woman he initially thought was a threat is now his friend.
Olivia smiled warmly she pulled Kirana back and hugged her, Kirana returned the embrace, as if they were already like a very close place.
...---------oo--------...
Within a week, finally a party in celebrating the anniversary of the official company was held. An open room with a large hall of the mansion became the venue for the grand event was held. Attended by invited guests of the upper class, this party seemed very exclusive and magnificent.
As discussed before, Matilda's intention to match Teresa, the daughter of Gery, was welcomed by Renata, Matilda intended to introduce Renata first to Teresa, because he knew Shaka would definitely not be able to refuse Renata's request.
"This is Teresa Clopper, the daughter of Gery the clopper I'm talking about." Matilda smiled as she introduced Teresa to Renata.
"She's so beautiful" Renata praised her first impression of the woman in a glossy black dress in front of her.
Teresa smiled, her Dutch stucco face was like adding to the allure of her beauty.
"Thank you, Auntie is also very beautiful just right if Mr. Shaka is so very handsome and charming."
Renata chuckles at the praise Teresa makes. "You could have. Ayok aunty introduced to Shaka, she must also be very looking forward to getting acquainted with you."
Teresa produced a glancing eye with a smile towards Matilda, and then was coded an eye gaze by the woman, for Teresa to follow Renata's steps.
While Shaka himself is currently holding back his annoyance, he still looks fine in front of his colleagues as they are talking now.
But his frustration was increasing, because now he saw a successful scene made his blood boil, where it looks Kirana who is so familiar with Aslan.
Kirana who is currently wearing a maid uniform and holding a tray containing drinks in her hands but absolutely can not eliminate her beauty charm.
Shaka is so upset that Kirana's maid uniform looks a little revealing, but he can't do anything to ban it even though he is eager to pull Kirana from here. Added to Kirana's closeness with other men make Shaka's head as if billowing out smoke.
Kirana herself realized that Shaka's gaze continued to be on her, those eyes of anger now no longer make Kirana tremble. Kirana justhe cuek duck and continue her chatter with Aslan, so now they are familiar, Aslan had not even hesitated to praise Kirana even helped the woman when there was a small insect on Kirana's face.
"Wait for something on your face," Aslan said and approached to help Kirana dispel the tiny creature on Kirana's cheek.
Shaka grew more and more sultry just to see it let alone their position so close made Shaka want to approach and dispel, while Kirana increasingly cuek duck he ignored Shaka's expression which was clearly holding back jealousy, and he was still jealous, instead he heated up by smiling at Aslan.
"Thank you."
Aslan smiled back. "Together."
Shaka screeched about to continue, until when the two women came to make everyone's attention connected to them.
"Shaka look at who you've brought to introduce you to" Renata exclaimed in a series.
Teresa walked gracefully past Kirana who was also staring at her, the woman hugged Shaka as soon as she arrived in front of the man.
And all of those sights were visible directly in front of Kirana's two eyes, Shaka who was shocked reflexively directed a glance towards Kirana despite her hand spontaneously hugging Teresa's waist.
