When Destiny Meets

When Destiny Meets
8. FLOWERBED


Arriving at the auto repair shop, Arkana tells Mr. Anton to go home and not have to wait for him. After completing the payment of the repair fee, Arkana went somewhere. A slum housing area became Arkana's destination.


I don't know who he's looking for, but Arkana's been there quite often. Some people even knew him until someone recognized him. However, none of them dared to ask him. They just stared at each other giving the code 'the man came again' and looked at each other.


The only one who can talk is the head of RT there. Long enough they chatted with each other at the head of RT. "There's still no news, sir?" ask Arkana to take a serious look.


"Unfortunately not, it has been very long so it is difficult to find it" said Mr. RT.


"I'll have some news later I'll call you." Mr. RT patted Arkana's shoulder convincingly.


Disappointed Arkana decided to return to the office. There's still a lot of work to be done. In addition, to avoid his family's events today. Arkana was also notified if there would be any coverage of their families.


Arka also already knows with the replacement house for Baskara. This is not the first time the father has done it to maintain the privacy of their family. Perhaps only Arkana can be as he pleases to be at many major events without fear of known paparazzi.


His own father did not care about what Arkana did. That freedom makes Arkana better than Baskara, who has always been in the shadow of Mr. Miller and his extended family.


The coverage will be held tonight. Some of their family staff have prepared things needed, including Baskara's painting equipment. They made the house as natural as possible like a workshop house full of paintings and equipment.


Alina helped Rose bring flowers that they decorated specifically to be arranged in the house. This flower bouquet is arguably the hallmark of the Miller family home. So it should have been put there if you want to convince the audience.


Alina looked at Baskara who did not look excited. I don't know why today Baskara is not as usual. It starts with her suddenly telling Alina something personal. Until now his face looks sluggish.


One of his guards looked at Baskara with a worried look, "Gapapa Mas?" ask Baskara's personal bodyguard. Increasingly worried that Bas was not reacting, the bodyguard approached Rose and reported what had happened.


Anxious Rose immediately rushed up to the eldest child. His hands touched Baskara's cheeks and made sure the boy was okay. "It's not fit, it's gausah ."." said Rose softly.


Alina who happened to see it could only be silent and amazed at how soft Rose was to her child. Rose really is the light between the dark and mysterious Miller family. Surprisingly seeing it did not make him miss his mother at all.


Alina had long forgotten she had a mother. The mother, who should have been by his side, chose to leave and not return.


"Father, I can do it."


"Ma, Ar ain't ya?" asked Baskara who was suddenly looking for her sister.


"Yes ... This mallem he went home to his apartment," Rose replied.


As is customary, each Baskara feels less well himself will immediately ask the existence of Arkana. After being given the cue the coverage event will begin soon. Mr. Miller who was abroad could not attend Baskara, so Rose was the one who replaced him.


Feeling uncomfortable, Alina returns home with Rose's approval. Without realizing it, every entry to Alina's house always stood a while in front of the Miller family photo and seemed to think of something. Like something she was looking for from the photo.


"For a long time the picture will move to your room." A voice suddenly appeared and startled Alina.


"Is there something strange, huh?" ask Arkana astonished.


"Ga there .. confused, this many people why the house is only located," replied Alina carefully.


"Because this house is our home of four, not the home of a large family." Arkana raised her eyebrows and looked at Alina.


Alina did not expect the distance between their faces to be this close. They had never known each other before. What does Arkana really think, why put her face this close?


Without realizing it, Alina's cheeks flushed and were known to Arkana. Smiling slightly, Arkana then left Alina alone there. Alina was still speechless still trying to digest what had just happened.


Exactly four times, only four times they met but Arkana had managed to make Alina misbehave. With the time she spent together with Baskara, her short time with Arkana managed to make Alina freeze in confusion.


Al .. must focus not on Arkana. 


Alina spent her nights silent in the flower garden. While staring at the sky Alina again questioned her fate. Suddenly there was a noise coming from behind one of the flower trees. Alina who heard that was shocked and confirmed her sitting position.


"Who is it?" ask Alina scared.


A few days later, it was Arkana. With a drink of Arkana who was initially walking around there saw Alina sitting alone there. Chairs that are usually empty since he grew up now there are those who fill it.


"This used to be my seat with Mama, why are you sitting?" ask Arkana cynically.


"Where is the writing if this place is specifically for Arkana?" Alina was quite upset to hear Arkana's words.


"I'm going in." Waking up from her chair, Alina's hand was held by Arkana.


"Grand, sit here .... " Arkana directed Alina to sit down again.


The two did not talk to each other, but rather both looked at the sky that happened to be filled with stars today. The sky seemed to know how to console the hearts of these two people. For quite a while they paid attention to the sky and did not say anything, but it did not feel awkward.


Everything feels natural and is done. Every now and then Alina looked at Arkana and turned her eyes again if the man noticed it. Don't know what they're thinking, but surely both have deep enough problems and can't be told.


It doesn't feel like time is getting late. Arkana then invites Alina to enter because the weather is also getting colder. Alina and Arkana then walked together into the house. The situation at home was quiet because everyone was almost in their respective rooms.


The two then split up in the dining room, as Arkana's room was in the opposite area to Alina's room. Without saying any words, Arkana went to her room. Same with Alina.


Without them noticing, there was someone who kept watching them. With a look of the face do not like if they are together.
