The Goddess of Don Pablo
Chapter 20: The Unexpected Meeting

That morning Nina was berias with makeup that was quite thick. As usual when he had to get out of the house and be in the public crowd. She became Lucy. Today he intends to shop as well as check the distribution of Fenucaria drinks produced. Special alcoholic beverages are only produced in the lead-up to winter. Usually cafes or pubs around the Wonder Island area have ordered and become loyal customers of drinks owned by the company Nina.They usually have ordered stock 6 months before entering winter arrives.

Outside, even though the sun was shining brightly but the cold wind started to feel bone-chilling. Nina with her Lucy look was ready with her makeup. He wore a maroon-colored turtleneck with black jeans and foot-only boots. Do not forget the purplish brown anti-sun glasses framing his face.make almost half of his face covered with glasses. He wore a knit hat in matching color with his clothes. This time he was wearing a small bag on his back. Prada bags made of Nile crocodile leather with special elegant design looks luxurious and harmonious with the outfit that Lucy wore.

Lucy walks in her clothes just as Carlo crosses into her father's study. Carlo's heart was racing. The man tried to cover up his feelings for the girl who had transformed into another figure in front of him. Carlo knew this girl would definitely go somewhere public with her makeup.

" Morning Carlo.you always look good in your black suit..Had you not had a woman beside you.I would have fallen in love with you.." said Nina while tidying up the tie the man wore.Carlo was surprised to hear the woman's chirp in front of him, his heart thumped faster..almost he could feel his heart as if it was about to jump out from within his body. He was used to the character of Nina who was flippant.But not this time.Tasakan he wanted to hear the woman say back his words.Even though maybe it was just the girl's curse on him. Carlo actually understood his feelings. He had fallen in love with Don Pablo's girl. Unfortunately Nina was always able to make her feelings like the ripples of roaring beach waves. But Carlo wasn't sure about telling the girl in front of him. He prefers to enjoy the girl in his own way.

"If I'm not as handsome as the Princess sees me, would you still let me take care of you and your father every minute ?" reply Carlo with his front row of teeth that looked clean white while twisting one eye. Carlo tried to look as natural as possible in front of this Pablo girl. He did not want Nina to know his true heart. It was not yet time for Carlo to reveal it. He still wanted to enjoy this girl in his way. Without making Nina feel uncomfortable with the feelings she has for the girl.

"Oh...Dear Carlo, if you are not as handsome as I see, it must be because my eyes are myopic so that they cannot see your good looks." replied Nina as she rolled back one eye to the man in front of her. Carlo laughed at the girl's reply to him.

"Carlo.I go first.please tell my father.I go out for a while." said Nina kissing the man's cheek. He walked without looking back, ignoring Carlo who was about to ask where he was going.Nina just passed by. Carlo just shook his head while smiling faintly. The warm morning sun with a cold breeze, made the man feel even more excited. Carlo knew.this time his love for the girl Don Pablo was increasingly explosive and make him excited every day.

Lucy is in a cafe that provides live music in the Bellarose area. Resembling the name of the area, Roses Cafe and Pub is one of the most luxurious cafes in the Bellarose area. Cafe that provides live music when lunch time arrives and night turns into a pub filled with techno music with a hard beat. The usual luxury cars are in front of this cafe.

The cafe looks ordinary from the outside. Like cafes in general that are in the area of Bellarose. But in the interior, this cafe is very spacious. It has 3 floors. From outside the cafe the building is like having only 2 floors. The 1st floor is an ordinary cafe that provides a variety of food and drinks. Usually they are open since 09.00 am s/d at 17.00 pm.While the 2nd floor, it is, is a building that more resembles a discotheque with several tables and benches high ala bar in cafes located in every corner of the room and there are 2 pieces of table bartender where they serve visitors who came. The middle part looks empty with 2 large sound systems. Where music will sound loud when the DJ is in action. They call the 2nd floor is special for pub visitors and only opened above 20:00 s/d 01:00 in the morning.

A special part of the Roses Cafe and Pub is the "Hidden Ground" floor". That's how they call it. Hidden ground is located on the bottom floor. Where to go there using a special escalator located in a small room that is not visible from the entrance of the cafe. Where in the room there is an escalator is guarded by 2 guards. A guard is on the escalator. Another was at the bottom right in front of the door of the room "Hiddenground".

This hidden room is a soundproof room. Until any noise in it will not be heard to the floor above it. Hiddenground is a special room that is usually opened only on Saturdays and Sundays for its members and is usually rented specifically to elite people who want to spend their nights without being disturbed by others.

The room "Hiddenground" is very spacious. In this room there is a billiard table, several casino tables and a room in the form of a special room that is installed soundproof carpet and not too big, a casino table, but it contains a double bed with an open bathroom in the form of a large jacuzzi complete with hot water. To enter it they must have a special card called "Black Platinum Member". Because this card indicates the owner is one of the special members there who must spend not a little each month as a form of regular dues. Until they can use the entire facility inside "Hiddenground". Those who only use the "Hidden Guest" card cannot enter this particular room. The rooms that are used for the elite superjets release their fatigue and lust there without being disturbed by outside noise.

Lucy still enjoys her morning breakfast a cream soup with toast and a glass of warm lemon tea. The atmosphere of the cafe in the morning is not as crowded as lunch time.

His eyes were fixed on the shelves where the bottles were neatly arranged. He saw some bottles of Fenucaria, an alcoholic drink made in his factory. The sign means that the distribution for winter stock will be fulfilled at this cafe. He smiled with satisfaction.

About 30 minutes later, a man in jeans and a white T-shirt wearing sunglasses entered the cafe. When he opened his sunglasses, the man looked stunned. How not??! A woman sitting in the middle of the room facing a small stage featuring live music stood out in her view. Ray remembered very well, she was Lucy.the girl he had glimpsed when he watched the cinema first. Between the unexpected surprise mixed a little carefree and nervous. Should he approach and rebuke this woman ? But Ray seemed a bit doubtful. He remembered how cold the woman was. But this time, the lights and the morning sunlight that penetrated the glass windows of the cafe made the vision of this man very clear. Lucy looks very pretty with her knit hat and turtleneck. Her beautiful face even looks very prominent among the cafe visitors. Ray seemed stunned to enjoy the curves of this girl's face and body from the side. Perfect. This girl seemed unaware of Ray's presence not far from her desk.

Ray thought about it. Should he approach her ? little pleasantries towards this woman ?But he was afraid of the cold rejection from this woman who could make him awkward later. He held back a moment of his feelings, while waiting for maybe this woman was waiting or with someone else at that time.

15 Minutes later, he did not see anyone with the woman. Black coffee with toast stuffed with chocolate jam and cheese that he had ordered, seemed almost depleted. Finally, with forced courage, Ray approached the girl who was busy playing a spoon on her tea lemon cup.

"I'm sorry, without any offense.but I can't remember you." replied Lucy trying to be polite. But a little kernyit in his forehead is enough to explain he was a little disturbed and unexpected by the existence of Ray who suddenly came.

"Ooh..hmm.we have met while watching in the cinema first..Can you remember it now ?" ray replied a little awkwardly. Either because of the stunning beauty before him or because of the cold attitude he had imagined from this girl, it made Ray a little awkward. Between regret and not he had reprimanded the girl in front of him. Worrying and anxious, had this woman been going to embarrass him to death with her refusal.

"Ooh..yes...I remember..you who used to watch the same movie with me..Sorry what is your name ?" said Lucy briefly. He remembered the face of the man before him. But the girl did not remember his name. Nina aka Lucy always looked at every man she met not for a promise she really made, it was only men who entered his life and he never remembered their names or even their faces.

"Ooh..I Ray can I sit here with you right now ?" ray asked as he pointed at the chair in front of the girl.

"Of course.please.." replied Lucy with a slight polite smile. Ray stared intently at the girl in front of him. The girl looks like she is wearing a pretty thick make up. But not one bit covered the perfection of each side of his face. He could see the beauty of this woman's face. Ray's heart beats a little faster. The awkwardness seemed to suddenly come to him.

"You..have ordered something ?" ask Lucy politely. For Lucy to meet and date many men is not unusual. His father never let him out on his own since his mother died. But being teased and flooded with gifts by men who are lured to her is common for this woman. Only no man could reach this woman's heart. Nina understood very well.every man who approached her only liked her face and the company owned.

both parents.

"Oh..I just ate before approaching your table.Can I call Lucy or would you prefer a call other than Miss ?" ask Ray back. He gulped covering his awkwardness. He himself was astonished. Ray used to meet and date many women. But only this time he felt awkward dealing with a girl in front of him.

"Oh ..it's ok Ray.you can call me Lucy.." Lucy replied briefly. He smiled quite broadly this time. Almost the heart of the man before him stopped beating. Ray himself was surprised. The girl in front of him was different from the one he had seen in the cinema before. This time Lucy looks flexible even though her elegance is clearly visible from the girl's speech and body language.

It only takes a few minutes Ray and Lucy have been able to melt the atmosphere between them with an interesting chat.

"By the way, you work around here ?" ask Ray in the middle of the conversation.

"Well.that's how ..I work not far from here..You're on your own ?" ask Lucy to return to her.

"Oh..I'm police officer ..sometimes I patrol around here.." Ray said honestly.

"Oh..wow..nice job.." said Lucy aka Nina did not expect. The police were the thing Nina hated the most and stayed away from. He knows his father's business. Especially after his mother died. Until now, it has not been revealed who the killer of his mother was.

" You can know your own work ?" ray asked, smiling.

"Hmm.I work in an alcoholic beverage factory officer.but you don't have to worry.all are licensed and have a circulation permit.." Lucy replied smiling. Ray who heard a small laugh heard the woman's joke.

"Seriously Miss Lucy ? Even without a license and a marketing permit, I as an officer will not be willing to catch a girl as beautiful as you to throw into a violent prison.." joked Ray to the girl in front of him while laughing. Lucy heard him laughing. Their conversation melted away with some jokes and jokes. They exchanged contact before they separated. Ray seemed happy to see a piece of paper in his hand containing the name and number of the girl in front of him.
