Saturday afternoon Kirana was waiting for a luxury car in front of her house.
“Where are you going, Na ?” Asked Mama Lia who was busy with her stitches.
“My mother boss I'm gladtoday, Ma. I was asked to come there. There are other secretary friends as well.”
“Kok until picked up so ?”
“Be asked to the salon first, Ma. Maybe it should be the reception later,” replied Kirana while kissing both cheeks of her mother. Don't forget the affectionate embrace for his mother who loved Kirana, Kendra and papa so much.
The former SD teacher is now a home-coat dressmaker. They had moved a year when papa Kirana got the task of being the head of a factory in Central Java. Mama Kirana stopped working even the house they owned was sold before moving. But only a year because of a major incident happened to the factory which made papa Kirana fired as a responsible.
There is a leak in the disposal of waste that had flowed into the residential area of nearby residents. Wastewater toxins cause skin diseases and shortness of breath. It's lucky there were no casualties.
Kendra, Kirana's younger sister who was sitting on the 8th grade Junior High School bench was one of the victims who was severely affected. In addition to the rash on his skin, Kendra had suffered from acute shortness of breath which made the child had to undergo intensive treatment.
Finally Kirana, Kendra and Mama Lia return to Jakarta so that Kendra get maximum treatment. With the rest of the money, Kirana's parents bought a simpler house than before. While Kendra treatment is partly still borne by the company because it is included in the victims of waste pollution.
Mama Lia had been asked to work again at the SD teaching place before moving, but she refused it because she wanted to focus on Kendra's treatment.
Papa himself returned 3 months later. All business problems in the factory can be solved but papa dismissed with a very minimal severance.
What had always been a question in Kirana's mind was the matter of her mother changing her nickname. In the past when teaching, his mother who has the full name of Dewi Liana, known by the name Mother Goddess. Upon her return to Jakarta, she opened a stitching business and changed her name to Lia Modiste. Once Kirana asked why, mama only answered the name Lia Modiste sounds more cool and modern. And since then people call her by the name of Mama Lia.
Kirana was really treated like the future son-in-law of the Pratama family. After being picked up by Mr. Richard's driver, at 3.30 pm Kirana was picked up and immediately delivered to the Richard Pratama family mansion.
Even since yesterday, Madam Amelia brought Kirana to do body care from head to toe .
4 Hours through Kirana already standing on the terrace of a super luxurious house with a look of his face that is much different from usual.
“Already to Kiran ?” Madame Amelia came out from inside to meet Kirana who had been invited into the living room by one of the servants.
“Bibik will take you to the guest room to shower and prepare yourself. Auntie also wants to get ready first,.”
Madam Amelia put her arm around the girl's shoulder, taking her in while calling out to a middle-aged woman.
“You've eaten ?” lady Amelia asked as she looked at the wall clock of almost half five.
“Aunty, just before going to the salon I have eaten first.”
“Ooo then let you eat again first. It's late afternoon, at least you can drink juice and eat cake.”
Madam Amelia gave the middle-aged woman an order to take Kirana to the dining room first before escorting the girl to the guest room.
“Sorry Aunt can not accompany because you want to be ready too.”
“Ngak what-what Aunt. Sorry even I was a hassle.”
“Sama is not troublesome at all,” Mistress Amelia smiled as Kirana's hair was neatly arranged.
Kirana also enjoyed the cake and juice dishes provided by the waiter there.
“Bibik has been working here for a long time ?” Kirana who felt awkward opened a conversation with the middle-aged woman accompanying her.
“Already since Mr. Sebastian was born, Non.”
“Wah long ago, dong. Already know Mr. Bus outside inside,” Kirana chuckles.
“Already no longer know Non, memorize outside the head.”
Bik Sum, the name of the middle-aged lung woman, laughed along with Kirana.
A few days ago, her employer told her about Kirana. And after meeting the girl, Bik Sum understands why Lady Amelia is trying to make Sebastian's pretend relationship with Kirana escalate into a real relationship.
Kirana lifts the former eating and drinking it to the dishwasher. He had also been presumptuous to wash it but was forbidden by Bik Sum.
“Non, better non Kirana get ready now. Usually the family of the Master and Madam will come before the invitation time.”
Kirana also followed Bik Sum to the room referred by Madam Amelia.
“Need auntie accompany to get ready Non ?”
“No need Bi, thank you,” says Kirana while carrying.
Kirana went into the prepared room. His eyes were again astonished by the situation of the room which was quite luxurious for him. The area can be said to be almost half the size of his family home.
Kirana saw that there were some paper bags placed on the sofa. Judging from the motive of her pouch, Kirana recognized that it was a shopping bag from the boutique she visited with Lady Amelia 2 days ago.
Kirana came closer and peeked at the contents. Turns right. All were the clothes he had tried in the boutique. Even one of the dresses that needs to be changed is also in one of the pockets.
Peach colored dress with small floral motifs and a blend of tile and chiffon fabric has been prepared on the bed. The shirt was handpicked by Mrs Amelia to be worn by Kirana tonight.
Kirana rushes to the bathroom with a small bag she carries from home and is filled with toiletries plus clean underwear.
Be careful he cleans himself without washing his face and shampooing as usual,. It only takes less than 30 minutes until Kirana is ready with her party dress.
Kirana sat on the edge of the bed, confused about what to do. He really felt awkward being in Mr. Richard's family home. Moreover, it has been almost two weeks since his relationship with Sebastian is not okay.
Kirana saw a yahg clock on her phone screen. Hour 5.25. The show starts at 6 p.m. Kirana decides to send a message to Dion. He believes that Sebastian's assistant must have come to this house.
Kirana: Dion, have you arrived at Mr Richard's house ?
Kirana waited for a reply for 5 minutes. The message was sent because it had checked 2, but Dion had not read it because it had not changed color to blue.
“Dion where ?” ask Kirana without saying anything.
“In your heart,” replied Dion while chuckling.
“Then so free me from this confinement,” Kirana replied with the original sentence as well.
“Where is ?”
“In the guest room, but I myself do not know which side. The house is too big and I have not memorized.”
Dion's voice laughed softly.
“White horse prince will pick you up.”
“Don't tell me Mr. Bas is here !”cry Kirana with a panicked tone.
“Why ? This is his parents' house Mr. Bas.”
Kirana did not answer. He was pacing back and forth in the room. Lazy if you have to face Sebastisn who is still looking at him with a cold face. Especially since yesterday when Madam Amelia asked her to beautify herself to the salon, Sebastian's face snatched like a shirt that has not been ironed.
“Ki, you're alive right ?” Dion was still joking.
“Half life,” replied Kirana origin. His annoyed tone made Dion laugh.
Kirana finally hung up her phone call, along with the sound of knocking on her bedroom door.
Kirana took a breath before opening the door as no sound sent her knocking.
He slowly opened the door and prayed that Sebastian would not be behind it.
“Nona Kirana's. Ladies and gentlemen are waiting in the living room.”
Kirana breathed a sigh of relief as Bik Sum picked her up, not Sebastian as Dion had said.
Kirana followed Bik Sum who was already walking in front of her. Kirana is increasingly amazed by the interior and design of Mr. Richard's house.
“Please Miss,” Bik Sum invites Kirana to a large room that has been neatly arranged with dish tables on the right left.
“This is mini ballroom,” decak Kirana in heart.
Kirana's arrival made some people who were sitting near the entrance of the room turn their heads. The eyes of those who still looked unfamiliar in Kirana's eyes made her nervous.
Kirana just nodded with a smile as the greeting of the people she met. He rushed towards the left side of the room which was a bit cornered.
Matahya had glanced back and forth looking for Dion or Echi or Marsha or just anyone she knew. Even Sebastian did not see his nose.
Mistress Amelia's eyes had already seen Kirana's presence enter the room. But it was impolite to immediately stop the conversation with Mr. Richard's brother and his wife.
Shortly after the conversation was felt not too important, Mrs Amelia bothered to approach Kirana.
Kirana was still standing on her own twisting the chiffon cloth wrapped around her waist.
“You're so beautiful tonight, Kira.” Mistress Amelia's touch made Kirana who didn't pay attention to the surroundings a little surprised.
“Sorry Aunt,” Kirana smiles clumsy.
“Come, Auntie introduce to our family there,” Mistress Amelia clasped Kirana's wrist that felt cold to the palm of her hand.
“Ngg... can I wait for Dion and Pak Bas first, Auntie ?” Kirana's still not moving.
Madam Amelia looked at him with a smile. His face was moved towards Mr. Richard who was still talking to a couple.
“It was Sebastian there,” Mistress Amelia pointed with a movement of her chin.
Kirana no longer had any reason to refuse. She followed in the footsteps of Madame Amelia who was still holding her wrist.
Arriving near Mr. Richard, Kirana nodded her head as a greeting to the owner of MegaCyber. Mr. Richard replied with a nod and a smile as well. While Sebastian who was standing next to him only glanced at a glance then turned his head in the other direction.
“Mas Raymond, Sister Rosa, this is asenastian's friend.”
The couple turned their bodies towards Lady Amelia.
Kirana who had frowned heard Lady Amelia mention two familiar names in her ears.
“Tante Rosa !” cry Kirana with a stifled voice. His eyes widened in surprise to see the figure of the woman in front of him.
The woman called Aunt Rosa was no less surprised when she found Kirana being held by her sister-in-law.
“Have risen your degree to be a rich man ?” Sindir Madam Rosa with a very cynical tone.
Mr. Richard and Mrs Amelia were puzzled by the words of Mrs Rosa, wife of Mr. Raymond, Mr. Richard's older sister.
The two frowned but said nothing.
Mr. Raymond who recognized Kiara greeted the girl who was introduced as her nephew's friend. .
“How are you Kirana ?” Greet Mr. Raymond in a flat voice.
Kirana just looked down and did not know what to say.
