When Destiny Meets
22. OTHER SIDE

Alina who just arrived accidentally met with Rose who looks like she is going somewhere. Rose and her servants brought several boxes of fresh flowers. Seeing Alina, Rose greeted her warmly.

"Hi, Al."

"Mom Rose went where she was going" asked Alina.

"Today there is an exhibition at the foundation, I want to donate these flowers to visitors there."

"You wanna come?" ask Rose to Alina.

Alina had actually promised to go straight to the pavilion upon returning here. However, he was also curious about what kind of exhibition Rose would attend. Looking at Alina who seemed hesitant, but clearly seen her eyes sparkling as she said about the exhibition Rose also forced Alina to come along.

"Udah come along. I'm your boss too, Al."

Alina smiled shyly then decided to come with Rose after putting her bag in the room.

Alina was already impatient to see what the exhibition was like. Suddenly Alina remembered something. Alina asks if Arkana really came home today to Rose. Rose replied that Arkana had not told her she was going home.

Even the last time they met, Arkana was very clear to her mother if she preferred to stay in her apartment. Rose again sadly remembers Arkana living alone again.

Yesterday I said I wanted to go home. What a surprise for your mom? 

It was unexpected that it turned out that he was currently preparing to head for the airport. He and Satrio are going on a business trip to Kalimantan. One of the projects that Arka is working on together with his former lecturer is related to the problems there.

"Lo gajadi come home today means?" tanya Satrio sat in the front passenger seat.

"Abis from there."

"I forgot if we have to go to Kalimantan today" Arkana said focused on driving to the airport.

Arriving at the airport, Satrio went to confirm the departure time and baggage charge. Arkana who was playing her phone suddenly remembered something and automatically texted someone and then hung up. After almost 3 minutes passed, Arkana again checked her phone in a hurry.

There is a reply from Alina which contains :

Okay. But a really big tumben Mas Arkana ngabarin me. What's a sticky Arkana? 

Arkana's two eyes glared, she was not expecting what she had just seen. Three minutes ago Arkana unwittingly sent a message to Alina and told her that she did not come home today because she had to go to Kalimantan.

"Aah!" arkana cried out to some people who were sitting not far from him.

Almost Arkana said harsh words, "Kok can I ngabarin Alina anyway ... who is he?" Arkana was astonished at herself.

Satrio was confused to see Arkana from a distance looking very frustrated. Moreover, the people around him did not stop paying attention to Arkana. Satrio then hurriedly approached Arkana, worried that something might happen.

"Why lo?" satrio looked around and looked back at Arkana.

"I'm stupid. Chaos ... if gini how do I meet him later at home?" Arkana spoke to herself while holding her head.

"Udah come on." Arkana first stood up and walked away from Satrio.

While in the car, Alina laughed to herself while looking at her phone. He was sitting right next to Rose, making Rose curious. Alina also shows the contents of the message that Arkana wrote to Rose. Seeing that, Rose laughed.

"He's the same I sometimes feel awkward .. kok to you suddenly ngabarin," said Rose laughing.

Rose and Alina finally arrive at the exhibition site of the foundation founded by Rose and some friends. The foundation was established to give abandoned children a decent living.

Today managers and donors conduct regular monthly gatherings. Incidentally the theme today is the exhibition, Rose also donated fresh flowers from her garden. Later these flowers are distributed to visitors or invited guests who come.

"It used to be one of her close friends Arkana who introduced me to these kids."

"A abandoned child who needs help" Rose said.

"That means that person is present today, ma'am?" ask Alina.

"It's been a long time since I last saw him" Rose replied, missing the boy.

After approximately two hours drive Arkana and Satrio also arrived at the hotel in Banjarmasin. The two only stayed one night after tomorrow having to travel overland to the countryside. Arkana is busy with her laptop.

Until suddenly remembered the words of a mysterious man who a few days ago met him. The man names Kai, a close friend of Arkana's in high school. "His relationship is the same Baskara donor what? besides, the kid never looked at it again."

The mysterious man accidentally doesn't tell Arkana everything. Jokingly he said he wanted to see Arkana more often, if everything was dismantled there was no longer a reason they met.

Alina helped some people there distribute the fresh flowers. Alina had never been to an event like this before. Therefore everything that happened there made Alina amazed and did not stop smiling.

Everyone feels warm here. It's only right if Rose is not affected by the situation at home. The place to gather with his friends is this warm. A running child and an adult who chatted while laughing.

"Mothers in the same house here look different, Mom."

"Ah, time? here more last, huh?" rose asked curiously with Alina's opinion.

"Hehehe .. yes Ma'am," Alina answered carefully.

When everyone was happy to gather together suddenly one of Rose's assistants approached her and whispered something in her ear. Hearing what her assistant whispered, Rose looked at Alina and gave a gesture to come to her.

Rose gets word from her assistant if she has to go with Mr. Miller. There's an important invitation outside the city. So they must go home now, before her husband gets home. Rose also said that Mr. Miller did not support his activities, so he always secretly came here.

Helping Rose clean up some of her things, Alina also did not forget to say goodbye to other friends of Bu Rose. Both of them immediately got into the car to the house. The car carried by Mr. Anton is speeding on the streets of the capital.

Fortunately, when he arrived at home, Mr. Miller had not arrived so the two hurriedly entered. It was like nothing had happened before. Sometimes the two laughed at their panic today.

"Akana's the only one who agrees with this foundation, even he's also one of its regular donors." Rose tidied up the basket filled with fresh flowers earlier.

Knowing if the organizers made the foundation because of a friend of Arkana, Arkana certainly became the person who supported the foundation the most. Little by little Alina knew the other side of Arkana. Coupled with himself who opened his funny side because he unwittingly sent a message to Alina.
