"That's so crazy!" Megan shook her head in disbelief. She and Aria relaxed in the cafe where they usually hung out. Aria still can't control her thoughts. No matter how she forgot all the events that had passed, she only remembered Lucas's words that still stuck in her heart. “Great, your reaction makes me even more doubtful!” Aria crossed her arms over her chest, she leaned back after sipping her cappuccino. She told Megan everything, about Lucas wanting to marry her. Aria needs a friend to tell each other. She didn't dare to talk to her family yet; her only friend was Megan. Megan sighed heavily. She also witnessed how all this time, Aria had run away from her father because she was afraid of marriage. But look at her best friend now. Suddenly, Aria told her that the man she loved wanted to marry her so lightly. Sorry, but this is very surprising for me. You ran away from your father, because you didn't want to marry anyone. How is it possible now, you are willing to marry Lucas
Aria had yet to give a meaningful answer to her father. She let matters like this rest for a while, as she was contemplating her exam designs. She has yet to find the proper inspiration for it. She was lucky enough that Adriano allowed her to join the event. There were many things that Aria learned. She met new people, and Aria started to get preoccupied with it without realizing it. Aria let go of her tiredness. She was lying in the backyard grass. Her eyes stared at the cloudy sky above her "Oh god, I think being an adult is really tiring" she said. "It's been more than three days, you're too busy to forget me?" Lucas approached her. Aria chuckled seeing Lucas' sullen face. The man had protested nearly a hundred times a day, simply because Aria was too busy with her new activity. Lucas is like a child who loses the attention of the people around him. He acted spoiled like that only to Aria, somehow she gave him attention that almost made him forget himself. “You know that I'm wo
Vino Alfaro. He is Lucas' co-worker who is quite close to Lucas. The way he works with Lucas makes them successful in several business dealings. Of all of Lucas' acquaintances for business matters, Vino was the only person Lucas liked. But Lucas' perspective suddenly changed. His heart felt very tight seeing Vino and Aria so close, especially when the distance between them was narrow. “Lucas! It's not what you think it is!” Aria said. Lucas looked at Aria and Vino alternately. As usual, he always had a flat and cold face. His brows knit together tightly, and the look in his eyes showed what he was thinking. Aria didn't take long to realize that “Then tell me what I should think about this, Aria?” he said. His tone clearly showed a hint of bullying. Aria deserved punishment for all her wrongdoings, but Lucas sometimes lost control, and accused Aria of some things that weren't worth arguing about. Aria sighed heavily, she only served Lucas' guests carefully to protect Lucas' good na
Aria worked hard for her exams. Because for her, this is the initial stage to show the potential she has. She fixed everything, and the matter she was thinking about wasn't this. There were other matters that she also had to control. "Finally, I got lucky because I did different sketches in different books!" Aria stretched her body. She has worked hard to get to this point. Megan and Max also stretched their bodies, because they also felt Aria's fatigue. “Hey, are you going straight home?” Max stared at Aria, he missed their moments together. Since Max knew that Aria lived in the same house as the coldest billionaire in this city, Max had been more careful to keep his distance from Aria. Aria nodded her head “It's already eight in the evening! I better go home!" Aria glanced at her watch. “Come on, we haven't been to a club in a long time! The others often ask about you” Megan complained. She put her arm around Aria's arm, and whined as if that was the best way she could persuade
Maya changes the way she looks. Even though she was wearing a uniform, she made sure her make-up looked natural. She imitated the way Aria dressed, though not exactly. She delivered hot soup for Aria only for Lucas to look at her as a woman who cares for others. "Good morning miss Aria. I've prepared hot soup for you. Now get up, take a shower and then finish this soup.” Maya patted Aria's feet lightly. She woke Aria carefully. Her eyes shifted to see Lucas who had just come out of the bathroom. Lucas had the day off from work. The masculine scent immediately burst out, making Maya indirectly aroused. She glanced at Lucas for only a few seconds, before the man realized that she admired the man. “Aria? Hey, wake up! You have to eat that soup to make my body feel better!” Lucas approached Aria, he touched Aria's cheek. Maya stepped back, she was frozen in place. Her mind was only filled with wishful thinking. If only Lucas had been so sweet to her. If only her life were as good as Ar
What's wrong with loving someone? Nothing is wrong. Maya only falls in love with men she thinks are worthy of her admiration. At first, she was just in awe of Lucas' personality. Then all that slowly changed because her feelings also grew even bigger. She was only struggling with her emotions, so her logic also asked not to give up. "Are you okay?" Lucas stared at her Maya glanced at her feet “I tripped! My feet hurt a lot” Lucas stretched out his hand to help Maya stand up, but she screamed in pain. Maya showed a grimace on her face, as if she couldn't stand up straight "Sorry Mr. Lucas, can you call someone to help me?" Maya seems very fragile. She pretended to try to stand up and fell again. It shows how weak she is right now. "Let me take you back to your room! I'll call a doctor to examine you." "Thanks sir, but that's not necessary. I just need to rest some time!” Lucas nodded his head, he carried Maya bridal style. Everything feels like a dream to Maya. Lucas' scent that
Sometimes, the cruelest traitors come from the people closest to them. Aria told many things to Maya. All the anxiety she felt, how her heart became a dilemma, and other things that made her doubt. Maya gave her opinion but slipped a bit of pressure into her words, leading Aria to maintain a selfish attitude. She didn't want to watch Aria and Lucas get married. That is not true. Maya is very sure that she is the one who is more worthy of Lucas. "Alright, have you found a model for your exam yet?" Megan asked between them lying in the campus garden. "Not yet!" “What? The exams are three days away, and you still haven't found a model for it? Aria, you don't want to fail, do you?” “I've searched, but they all refused due to busy schedules. Megan? Do you want to be my model?” Megan changed her sitting position, she threw away her gum and shook her head in disbelief. She must have that high self-confidence, to appear in front of many people. He was never confident with his face, even
Sometimes, to love someone, and the feeling is so big anyone can act like a child. Aria was following her feelings now, she didn't weigh things with her ego. She stood at the window of her room, her eyes not stopping to glance towards the courtyard. She waited for Lucas to come home, and her mind didn't accept Karina coming to this house. "I'm sorry for the situation you're in right now, I've experienced jealousy and it's really not fun at all!" Maya still gave her provocative remarks to Aria. For Maya, nothing was more enjoyable than seeing the jealous look on Aria's face for now. She just wanted to make Aria feel a warmer pulse. Making her feel even more painful. "I can't understand Lucas' way of thinking, I mean yeah he already knows that Karina slapped me" “Then why don't you reply to that woman with the same slap? I mean, an eye for an eye, and a wound for a wound, am I right?" Again and again, Maya tries to find loopholes, so she can provoke Aria's anger. All she wanted was
