"Antch!"
"What actually happened to him? Why do I feel like the Princess deliberately doesn't want to see me" Arash lamented.
Arash tries to go back to see the Princess. No matter what happens, he will still face the girl.
"Excuse me, Ma'am. Is the Princess' mother there?" arash asked one of the receptionists there.
"Sorry, Sir. For the time being Mother Princess is not in the office," the receptionist replied with a smile towards Arash as if so fascinated by the good looks of a man who was in front of him.
How not, now everyone in the law firm's office has recognized who Arash really is.
Arash is a handsome young man and much valued by women. Even women from the upper class were willing to work hard to get a little attention Arash. However, Arash's choice eventually fell to the Princess. The girl who looks spoiled, but in fact very independent. Even the girl was good at playing casino and made him sigh.
"When do you know when he's back at the office?" asked Arash who was curious about the absence of the Princess at his place of work.
This isn't the first time since Arash's extraordinary love affair has happened, but it's the umpteenth time that the Princess isn't in his office.
"Looks like the Princess didn't come back to the office, sir. You see, he is serving outside the city" replied the receptionist.
"Outtown? Since when?" tanya Arash was curious.
"Two days ago," answered the receptinos.
"Why just say it now? Why didn't I come here yesterday?" asked Arash in annoyance.
"Don't you ask?" answer the receptionist which made Arash become upset.
"About how long does Mother Princess serve outside the city?" tanya Arash was curious.
"Well, if that's not what I know, sir. Just try you ask yourself to Buk Putri," replied the receptionist which made Arash again feel upset.
"If my message was read, I could not find him, Ma'am," ketus Arash who made the receptionist was surprised to hear it.
A disappointed look was clearly visible on Arash's face when he heard the receptionist's speech. Why is it so hard to meet the princess. Not getting satisfactory results, Arash finally left the Princess' office.
Breath full of disappointment was clearly heard when he was in the car. Her memory goes back to the events of a few days ago when Bara asked her to speak with him in one eye.
"Does this have anything to do with what happened that day? That's why the Princess deliberately avoided me,” muttered Arash while turning on his car.
"But why? I have expressed my feelings in public. Does that not make the Princess memorable?" lirih Arash with a feeling that misses the girl very much.
Slowly the car driven by Arash drove away from the law firm office page where the Princess worked. During the driving, Arash continued to sigh whole-chestedly.
“Keep I must how now so that the Princess will see me again?" tanyanya. "If only I knew where the Princess is now, I might have gone to her house" Arash said, focusing his mind on driving.
Before long Arash smiled as if getting an idea to conquer the woman who had been disturbing his mind. A woman who can divert her world to make herself unable to concentrate in carrying out her work.
Arash eagerly returns to run his car to meet Desi, a close friend of the Princess lately.
The car driven by Arash appears to turn towards Desi's residence. Only Desi is Arash's hope this time.
"You! What's up here, Rash?" Desi frowned in wonder as she opened the door of her house when she saw Arash coming to see her.
"Now also nyampe, Des. At the very least, let me sit down first after being offered what cake to drink. You don't see me tired like this" grumbled Arash who immediately glared in and then sat his body on the sofa. Make the owner of the house shook his head to see the behavior of Arash, but did not stop stepping his feet approaching Arash was.
If Arash had not been the son of his parents' employer, he might have been kicked out of his house by now.
"Why is my face bent?" asked Desi who had landed her ass on the sofa, exactly in front of where Arash was sitting.
Instead of responding to Desi's question, Arash instead sighed for a moment, then looked at Desi's face with a gaze that made the owner plunge towards her. Desi already knew that Arash's purpose in meeting him must be related to the Princess.
"Don't tell me your arrival here has something to do with the Princess," guessed the suspicious Desi who again made Arash again sigh. Shortly afterwards Arash nodded lethargicly as if confirming Desi's remark.
"Lately I've been having a hard time seeing the Princess. Nor can I call his phone, as if he deliberately avoided me," I Arash who still put on a sad face, while Desi still faithfully awaits the continuation of the story.
“When?” desi asked without looking at Arash.
"I just got out of his office, but unfortunately he's not in the place." Arash was feeling sluggish again.
"Where is the Princess?" desi asked after Arash was silent for quite a while.
"He was out of town, and I don't know when he's coming home. Des, can I ask you a favor?" arash's face again showed a face full of hope.
"Solicit what please?" desi asked with a frown even though in his mind he was sure that Arash would ask him to contact the Princess, and it proved true that Arash had said that to him.
Desi shook her head violently, rejecting Arash's request while saying, "I can't, Arash."
"Please, Des. Just help me out this time. I really want to meet the Princess," hoped Arash who again made Desi shake her head.
"I don't want to help you, Rash. But this time I don't want to interfere in your affairs with the Princess anymore. Quite a time I make the Princess disappointed when she wants to unite your feelings. And this time I don't want it to happen again. You better find another way, so that the Princess will see you."
Arash was speechless after getting a very unhelpful Desi answer. The man was almost broken up for the princess. Is this hard to fight for love?
Arash returns home feeling empty, after Desi refuses to help him. He no longer knows how to meet the Princess, so that he can express his feelings for the Princess. Yes, at least speak four eyes from heart to heart to the girl who has ravaged her feelings.
On the other hand the Princess who was in the hotel room was seen repeatedly sighing tired when she saw so many phone calls, and also messages sent by Arash.
The princess who felt tired of the persistence of Arash who every day continued to try to meet him, finally took the decision to service out of town. However, on the other hand the Princess also felt homesick with the figure she was currently avoiding.
"I'm sorry, Rash, I beg you to give me time to clear my mind" the Princess said as she looked at Arash's name, who called her phone again.
*******
Two weeks later, Arash was seen in his office. At first he deliberately took a two-day permit to focus on his company. But what was on his mind at this time was split into two, between the office and also the Princess who did not respond to phone calls or short messages that he sent a day ten times, Bahkkan more.
Arash went out of his office to get some fresh air so he could get rid of the little tired that was currently bothering him. He also plans to visit the grandfather who has been allowed to go home, as well as the twin who is preparing for his engagement with Sifa. As his car passed by the ice cream shop, his eyes accidentally saw someone he had been missing.
It is clear that Arash saw the existence of the Princess with friends and relatives who were laughing at the store, which made Arash's smile also joined them.
Wait, since when is Princess close to Naya?
Arash turns his car into the ice cream shop. Then immediately get off as soon as he finishes parking his car in the parking lot. With a definite step Arash hurriedly walked towards the Princess, Naya, Desi, and Luna.
"Daughter, Desi, Luna, Naya! You here?" greeting Arash with a smile on his lips that immediately made the Princess surprised and stiffened when he saw the arrival of Arash so suddenly.
How did Arash find their whereabouts? Though the Princess deliberately made an appointment with her friends in a place that seemed not to be reached by Arash. But actually.
"Hey, Rash. How are you?" tanya Naya made small talk while elbowing the arms of the Princess who still looks surprised by the appearance of the Arash.
Naya already knows about Arash and the Princess' relationship. That he knew from his friend who also worked at the same law firm with Putri. The matter about Arash who expressed his love and continued to go to the law firm's office just to find the existence of the girl, has been very famous throughout the office. Unfortunately, no one recorded the incident where Arash expressed his feelings for the Princess. That guy looks really cool.
"Lumayan, fine. What are you guys doing here? Kok make a meeting event in a place far from home, anyway," said Arash diverted the conversation that made Desi throbbing upset.
"Eat the ice cream, time to the ice cream stall eat rice Padang," Desi whistle which even makes Arash chuckle amused to hear it, he said, likewise with Luna and Naya who look giggling hearing the words of Desi just now.
"Excuse the customers, at this time we will hold a challenge to eat the ice cream in this box. If you are lucky, you will get a free ice cream ticket for a month. The condition is only one, that you loyal customers must spend the ice cream that is behind this box. Who wants to try it, let's sign up right now" said the waiter who just announced the news of the race.
"Waah, eat oak cream for a month, quite right," kekeh Desi which is approved by the Princess.
"Yes, I also want to win this race. Just having ice cream, is that hard, right?" continued the Princess who was influenced by Naya and also Desi.
"Yuk, we're going, '" asked Desi excitedly.
"Yuk" answered Naya. "Eh, Rash, you want to go, don't you?" invite Naya who just realized that her cousin was looking at the Princess with a look of adoration.
"What's wrong?" asked Arash who had just come to his senses from his daydream, when the man's arm was grabbed by Desi.
"How to hear, if his eyes and mind are currently only on one Princess," said Luna who finally teased Arash, who was greeted with laughter again by Naya and also Desi. Which makes Arash smile embarrassed while scratching his nape that is not itchy, because that is the reality.
"You could have, Lun but really," Arash said as he looked at the Princess's face which looked wrong when he saw Arash's eyes on her.
"I guessed it," Naya said, folding her hands in front of her chest, which again made Luna and Desi unable to hold her laugh anymore to hear her friend's words.
"Have ... Already ... I have a stomach ache," complained Desi while holding her stomach.
"Right now the booth we're going to is having a challenge, Rash. Who can spend the ice cream in the box, then will get free ice cream for a month," desi's light made Arash nod his head as if he understood what Desi said.
"So, will you also follow the challenges presented by this ice cream outlet?" tanya Arash who is influenced by Desi and Naya. While the Princess just like before is still loyal to her silence.
"Yups, pretty ‘kan if you get free ice cream. But there's a condition, Rash." Naya said again.
"Condition? What condition?" Arash's forehead wrinkled as if he did not understand the words that Naya said.
"Yes, the condition is that we can not choose the taste of ice cream ourselves. So, if we follow the lomba, then we must be ready to spend the ice cream that has been given by the store employees," explained Naya later.
"Sounds pretty interesting, can I follow you?" arash said with an enthusiastic face that was immediately embraced by Desi, Naya, and Luna with a compact.
"Of course I can. This race ‘kan for public. So anyone can follow, including you," said Desi.
"Okay, I'll come, then" said Arash, who was influenced by Desi.
"So, who's up for the challenge, huh?" ask Desi who is ready to register their name.
"I'm coming" said Naya.
"Me too" said the Princess, who finally returned to her voice after being silent for a while since Arash arrived and joined them.
Finally they immediately register to participate in the race, except Luna who can not stand the cold ice cream.
After registering, Desi, Naya, Putri and Arash were told to choose one of the five boxes in which there was ice cream with different flavors. Where later the ice cream in the box was their choice and required to spend one cup of ice cream in the specified time.
Arash chose number five, while Desi and Naya chose number two, because they were born as second children. As for the Princess herself, she chose number one, because she was the eldest of three children. Their choice was also locked by the waiter of the ice cream stall, then the next second the boxes were opened, so as to make Arash, Princess, Desi, and so on, and also Naya can see what kind of ice cream flavor they have to spend.
The princess opened her mouth when she saw what kind of ice cream she had to spend fifteen minutes on.
"Into you?" princess muttered in disbelief.
"Gilaa, hot pepper?" desi murmured which made him and Naya can feel how the spicy taste created from the ice.
"How are the participants? Does anyone want to back off?" hail managr the ice cream stalls.
"Where, Put, Des?" asked Naya who was hesitating to get her reward.
Let alone a month, a year to eat free ice cream Naya and Putri can afford to pay for it, even to buy the ice cream outlet is not a difficult thing for them.
"We will give an extra gift to anyone who can finish ice cream in fifteen minutes. That is a set of rings and necklaces that are very beautiful," said the maid.
"Well, win Arash aja," annoyed Desi because the man's ice cream tastes vanilla. Of course, there is no challenge to spend the ice cream for Arash.
"Eits, make no mistake, one set of jewelry is intended for ice cream that has flavors other than vanilla," said the manager of the icek cream outlet.
"So how? interested in the race?"
Desi, Putri and Naya whisper, and they agree to the race.
"I should get that necklace anyway," the Princess exclaimed excitedly.
"I want to, too," said Desi not to lose.
Arash, who saw how passionate the three women who were beside him at this time, made the man smile when he saw the expression of the Princess who looked very excited to win the race.
"Bas with you, when you can buy more expensive than that" said Arash who made Putri, Desi, and Naya look at him sharply.
"You don't know what it's like to get something out of a winning result" said the Princess, who made Arash smile. Finally, the girl wants to talk to him.
The princess, Desi, and Naya gulped at the sight of the ice cream that had been served before them. Indeed, this is a new innovation because in fact the ice cream is usually always sweet and makes cool on the tongue and throat.
While Arash looked so relaxed, he was even so sure he could finish his ice cream. That's because he got vanilla-flavored ice cream. As for the Princess herself, she looks grimacing and even gulps her saliva several times when she sees what ice cream she gets.
Noni-flavored ice cream, yes the Princess gets noni ice cream that can be imagined how the ice cream tastes. However, he must be able to spend the ice cream, if he wants to win the race to get a set of necklaces that look very beautiful.
When the ice cream shop manager said if they would provide additional hadia, other customers who wanted to participate in the party also began to register themselves. Unfortunately, none of them managed to get the same ice cream flavor as Arash.
Now the race begins. The race participants seemed so enthusiastic about doing the race. All sorts of faces now appear there. Starting from the relaxed like Arash to the seeming spiciness due to the spicy ice cream section.
Arash who accidentally saw the Princess's seriousness to spend the noni ice cream taste was pitying. And, intend to replace the ice cream with ice cream Princess's. Maybe this way he can conquer the heart of the Princess in order to accept her feelings.
Actually Arash himself was confused by the attitude of the princess who avoided him continuously. Though it is clear that Arash wants to fight for his feelings for the Princess.
Or maybe the princess does not have any feelings for him anymore?
Seeing the Princess who was willing to vomit many times, making Arash could not bear, the man approached the Princess and sat down before the girl.
"Here let me spend it, you eat my ice cream alone," said Arash who had exchanged his ice cream with the Princess's.
"You!"
"You better spend mine. Take it easy I have not tasted yet," said Arash who again makes the Princess surprised when ice cream flavor of noni has turned to Arash's hands.
On the other hand Arash was happy when he saw the Princess had eaten her ice cream. He also enjoyed noni ice cream with a bite without feeling how bitter the ice cream. Maybe because his mind is now on the Princess until he can not distinguish between sweet and bitter anymore. In fact, now Arash feels confident that after this race event, the Princess will open her heart to him.
That was his greatest hope at this moment.
Desi, Naya, and Luna looked dumbfounded but soon grimaced while several times swallowing their respective spit, when they saw Arash who casually enjoyed the Princess' noni-flavored ice cream. But on the other hand the three smiled happily when they saw Arash who was willing to replace his ice cream with ice cream owned by the Princess. From there they can see the seriousness of Arash who wants to get the love of the Princess.
The princess was amazed to see how she enjoyed the noni-flavored ice cream, as if the noni ice cream changed its taste as sweet as honey.
Will this make the Princess' heart melt?
