Evan was still on the balcony of his room, with a changed position. This time he leaned his head, his eyes fixedly staring at the starry night sky. His hand was sticking out toward the sky. He opened his hand and clasped his hand as if he were holding a star in the sky.
"You're like a star, Lora. It can be seen but not achieved. You can shine a light on my dark heart with your flickering light." Evan muttered followed by a faint smile.
"Ah, i*l! I was foolish to have wasted you then. I'm so sorry that I had to be seduced by that rotten woman." - Evan.
Suddenly, his mind floated on the past. When he and Lora knew each other first. Lora was quiet, looking cold and stiff. Very inversely related to it. He always tried to approach Lora first, invite Lora to talk or just say hello to Lora. And ....
Flashback*
Evan often comes to visit Lora's house. Initially, he was only asked to drop off documents or pick up documents if Hanson could not come to the company because he was busy. Evan was an avid and deft employee. He is always reliable. Therefore, Hanson liked Evan, because Evan was also a friendly and polite young man. There will be no blame in Evan at that time.
Evan has only been working for a few months. I don't know the figure of Lora. He only heard rumors about Hanson and Marlyn's single putti. At first, Evan was not very interested. Until the day Evan is asked for help by Hanson picking up Lora at the airport. Lora has just come from abroad on business interests. Unable to resist, Evan could only reproduce what Hanson had commanded him. And he immediately rushed to the airport for the sake of the Princess.
At the airport, it turns out that Lora is waiting for Evan's arrival. Evan then apologized because he was late because he was constrained by something. Looking at Lora who was merely breeding expressionlessly made Evan feel uneasy. Even on the road, Evan again apologized and admitted his mistake. Lora, tired of hearing Evan's apology, finally opened her reprimanding voice.
"When are you going to apologize?" asked Lora coldly.
"W-what?" muttered Evan, "Ah, that. I just feel bad. You must have waited a long time ago." continued Evan talk.
"It's okay. I didn't wait too long." replied Lora.
"not long? an hour was a minute for him. The woman who was quite strange, "inner Evan looked at Lora who was sitting behind with the windshield.
"You want to go home?" ask Evan.
"Are you the driver?" ask Lora to Evan.
"Eh, ah .. no. I am a new employee at the company. I just got an order from Mister to pick you up." replied Evan.
"Oh, I thought the driver. Sorry, yes. I didn't know you were an officer. Maybe it's also because I never saw you in the office" Lora explained.
"It's okay, Miss. I have only been working for about five months. When I walked in it seemed like you were going on a business trip." replied Evan who also explained.
"Ah, right too. I deserve to never see you. You can talk to me casually, no need to be too stiff. What's yourname?" ask Lora.
"e-evan. My name is Evan, Miss." replied Evan.
"Oh, okay. First of all, I'm sorry I thought you were a driver. Second, I will not go home. I want to buy my favorite coffee and dessert. It won't be long, so you just calm down" Lora said.
"Oh, fine. I was actually released today. I'm just devoted to serving you." replied Evan again.
"Hm, yes." muttered Lora. Lora playing mobile.
Evan focused on driving, "The address is the place, Miss" said Eavan slowly. Looking back at Lora from the windshield.
"Just walk. I'll point at it later" Lora replied, without turning her eyes to the cell phone.
Apparently Lora got a message from Hanson. Lora immediately replied and said if she wanted to go for coffee and a dessert tomb. Hanson replies to Lora's request and asks Lora to come home soon and rest. While Evan continues to focus on driving the car and looking at the road that is passed.

From that meeting, the long relationship between Lora and Evan is getting closer. Although Lora spoke a little and seemed cold, but Evan felt that was the uniqueness of Lora. Once upon a time, Lora's parents had a job out of town. Because of something urgent. Make Evan have to sow Lora at home. In other words, Evan was hacked as a bodyguard by Hanson for his daughter. He was not worried, because there was also Reine in the house. Reine is rarely seen by Evan.
At midnight, Lora wakes up because she has a nightmare. Lora was also wild from the room walking towards the kitchen. He wanted to drink water, because the glass was empty. After pouring water in her glass, Lora immediately gulped down the white water in the glass with a single sip.
"Miss, are you okay?" evan asked to be sure. Because, from afar Evan saw Lora who was a hasty path to the dining table. Lora's trembling hand movements also looked suspicious.
Lora was shocked, "Ah, you surprised me" said Lora.
"Sorry, Miss. I didn't mean to," replied Evan.
"There's nothing, Evan. I'm going first. I want to go back to sleep." answered Lora.
Lora's not really okay. While walking Lora looks staggered, until Lora finally almost fell and helped Evan.
"Nona .." cried Evan clutching Lora's waist so as not to fall.
"Oh, sorry. I'm it's okay. You can let me go" said Lora.
Evan let go of his arms and asked for permission to take Lora to Lora's room. Because of the fear, Lora can only reproduce Evan's intentions. The two walked to Lora's bedroom.
Out of fear, Lora immediately hugged Evan without warning. Lora was crying. Evan was dumbfounded. He hesitated to return Lora's embrace. However, in the end he dared to pat her on the back and rubbed Lora's long hair. He wanted Lora to be calmer.
It was his first experience, treating women so special. So was the first time, there was a foreign woman other than her Mama who embraced her. Evan had no other thoughts but to calm Lora down.
"It's okay. Don't cry, yeah." said Evan to calm Lora who was still sobbing.
"I'm afraid," answered Lora hoarsely.
"Fear what?" asked Evan to take off a hug. He looked at Lora who was still crying.
"I dreamt, there were some people in dark clothes attacking me, Papa and my Mama. I don't know what that means, but it's scary. They carry knives. In my dream it was like this too, night and rain of lightning." explained Lora still with the same tone of voice.
"Pull in a slow breath, then exhale slowly as well. Repeat a few times." Evan's orders to Lora. I want Lora to follow her instructions.
Lora said, she took a slow deep breath, then exhaled slowly. He followed Evan's instructions. He repeated it several times until he could overcome his own fear and panic. He also began to calm down a little.
Seeing Lora who was starting to calm down, Evan also felt calm. He then holds Lora's hands and makes sure, whether Lora is fine or not. Evan doesn't know what to do. All he could do was small and small things.
"How do you feel, Miss? is it still like that." asked Evan curiously.
Lora shook her head slowly, "Not anymore. Thank you, Evan. I'm sorry I surprised you, yes." replied Lora with a faint smile. Covering up her remaining fear.
"Thank God if it's like that. I'm relieved to hear it." said Evan, sighing heavily.
"Sorry" said Lora again. He looked fearfully at Evan.
Evan raised next to his eyebrows, "Sorry for what, Miss?" asked Evan in confusion. "Since then you've apologized" he continued.
"Because it makes you anxious and confused. Honestly I feel bad now." Lora replied, she felt bad after realizing that she had disturbed others.
Lora's head is rubbed by Evan. "It's no problem, miss. I'm glad you could bother like this. If there's anything, don't hesitate to tell me. I can be where you share or tell me anything." explains Evan, in the hope that Lora will count on him, even if only for a moment.
Lora nodded her head, "Yes, I will remember these words. Thank you, Evan." replied Lora with a beautiful big smile. That pretty smile, made Evan's heart beat fast.
***
In short, that's where the love story of Lora and Evan intertwined. Evan does not love Lora, but he admires Lora's extraordinary figure while working on becoming an authoritative and wise leader. Different from Lora. Gradually, his heart is moved and he begins to fall in love with Evan.
The two's relationship was known to Hanson. Hanson did not take issue with Evan's status, who was not a businessman. Meksi is only a staff worker, Evan has shown his best performance and satisfactory work results. Therefore, when Evan proposed to Lora, the application was immediately accepted and the two were immediately betrothed officially.
Flashback ends*
Evan again sighed, "Hahh ... What are you thinking, Evan? don't expect much of anything uncertain now. Isn't it all over when you decided to have an affair with a bad woman, was it? you were persuaded by seduction and beguiled by trickery. How can you remember those past events?" inner Evan closed his eyes slowly. Not long after he reopened his eyes and hit the table beside him.
Kwmu ....
"Aarggghhh! *al*n! all because of you, Reine. You've ruined everything. Everything I've dreamed of. Arrgghhhhc ... " Shouted Evan furiously. He was suddenly upset.
Evan still does not accept if in fact we are contrary to what he expects. Although he did have the goal of achieving success, he did not expect that what he received right now felt like a thorn that pierced his flesh. He now regrets that, after losing Lora, he realized that he really loved Lora.

Reine turned her body back to the keri then to the right. He was looking for a comfortable position for her to sleep in. Just as his eyes were closed, the next second his eyes were already open again. Reine was already heavily sleepy, yet she could not sleep. It was like something was ringing in Reine's mind.
"Ahh, how is this? why can't I sleep like this. What happened to me, yes." muttered Reine. confused by his circumstances.
Suddenly Reine recalled Evan's words as he and Evan chatted on the phone. Reine felt that there was something Evan had hidden from her. I don't know what it is, Reine can't guess. Speech style and words that are not as usual, make Reine's confidence strengthened. He also believes, if Evan's speech that says 'Hindu' is just a trick.
"What's up, huh? is Evan .. ah, I'm crazy! I also take care of it. Didn't he act as good as his heart to me as if I was the trash he wanted to throw away. Why was she suddenly so nice to apologize and say she missed? he must have been pushed by his parents. Yeah, I'm sure of it." muttered Reine.
Reine also moved from lying down to sitting on a pile of pillows that he arranged to rise. He stretched his back and his head slightly. His eyes closed for a moment, he felt his body very weakly not powered up.
"Indeed, yeah. If I think about it, my life is like being tied to a rope. Although the rope is invisible. I'm nobody at Uncle's house and nothing. Because I'm just an orphan. Am I being too greedy? but .. not really. I'm upset, only Lora is always the center of attention. Want it at home, at school or at tutoring. Only he is in the puja-puja men, only in the idol school. Until children from other schools willing to come all the way only deminya. I'm the one who's always on Lora's side. Why do I look invisible? I became like a shadow in their eyes." muttered Reine again. This time, remembering the events of the past.
Reine was always complaining to herself when she was in her weight. He never told anyone about his troubles including his Uncle and Aunt. It would be so much better if only you knew. Not with anyone else. Because others would not be able to ease the burden of his heart. That's why he always felt he could do whatever he wanted. Although in fact he knows if he is not superior or capable. He always forced his own twists.
Reine was in position for quite a while. Until he really felt unable to hold back his drowsiness. He laid his pillow again and lay down, pulled the blanket until it covered his entire face. His eyes slowly closed and he began to sleep. Instantly he forgot what was in his head earlier.
