I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU
35. The plan.

"WHATAA,,,,,?????"

Joel involuntarily raised his voice in shock at what he had just heard from Bram.

"Ariel thinks of her as her best friend, but the crazy woman betrayed her" Bram said.

"And yeah, I was a part of it. I became a breng*ek who hurt Ariel with him. I'm really sorry about it now" said Bram, ruffling his hair.

"I want to fix what I've broken, I won't let him hurt Ariel again" Bram said sincerely.

"Woww,,, this is the first time you've opened up to me" Joel said in amazement.

"I thought you were the one with the highest self-esteem" he continued.

"It doesn't matter now,!" hatch Bram. " Now, all we have to think about is how Ariel can't meet her, and don't let her know about your relationship with Jesica anytime soon" Bram said.

"I thought this would be your stone so you could get back to Ariel and take her heart, why would you help me?" joel is confused.

"If it were you, what would you do?" Bram asked back.

Joel fell silent, understanding Bram's position. If he is in the position of Bram and wants to correct the mistake, he will not choose the way that will actually lead to create a new distance between himself and Ariel.

Even if the way he did would hurt himself, then he would still do it again and again.

And, if Ariel would eventually choose Bram, he would support their relationship. Because now he really sees the sincerity that is in Bram against Ariel.

"I will do the same," Joel replied after a moment of silence.

"Did Ariel know Jesica was in town?" ask Joel.

"He knows, but they've never met" Barm said.

"What about Jesica?" ask Joel again.

"I don't think he knows so far" Bram replied hesitantly.

"You doubt?" joel squinted his eyes.

"Because I don't know if Jesica knows about Ariel in this town. They've been completely disconnected ever since" Bram said.

Silence filled the room where they were after what Bram had revealed. They are busy with their own thoughts. The door that opened left them shocked.

"Lho, Joel, are you still here?" ask someone dressed as Joel.

"Ahh,, sorry. I've been disturbing, I thought you've come home because it's past your hours" she said when her eyes met Bram.

"It's okay, Seth. He's my friend, he didn't come for treatment, I left after this" Joel said.

"Ah, so. Alright then," Seth replied, then set his eyes on Bram and smiled kindly.

"I've never met Joel's friend before. I'm Seth," Seth extended his hand introducing himself.

"Bram," Bram welcomed Seth's hand, which he held warmly.

"It's nice to meet you, Bram," Seth smiled warmly.

"It's good to see you, Seth, too" Bram replied.

They both let go of their hands. Seth turned his gaze back to Joel with a questioning look.

" But did something happen? I saw the lady coming out of here with an angry face followed by two security. What the hell is going on?" ask Seth curiously.

"He made a fuss" Joel replied.

"And by chance I came" continued Bram.

"Ruckus?" Seth furrowed his brows.

"So far, that lady always comes out well. And always asking about you, so I think he's your acquaintance" Seth said.

"So who told him about my schedule was you, Seth?" joel asked widening his eyes.

"Yes, he said that he knows you well, even when I suspected that he could know about you very well. So when he asked about your schedule and address, I told him, "Seth said.

Joel rubbed his face with a huff. Didn't expect that the one who told me everything Joel was covering up was his own friend. But he also cannot completely blame Seth who did not know anything from the beginning.

"Did I make a mistake?" seth asked when he saw Joel's reaction.

"You shouldn't tell him about my privacy to someone you don't know, Seth!" erang Joel's.

"Eh,?? So is the lady lying? Or did he do something bad to you? But he knows you very well" asked Seth confusedly.

"I'm sorry, I should have been more careful" Seth said.

"I'm really sorry, Joel," Seth said.

"I told you, it's not your fault. This happens because you don't know, forget it" said Joel.

"I go home first" he continued.

"All right" Seth replied.

"Come on Bram" Joel asked.

Joel came out of his room after taking off his suit and putting it on his clothes in the room.

Joel stepped up with a question that filled his mind, while Bram walked beside him, occasionally glancing at Joel.

'What would happen if Ariel found out I had been in contact with Jesica? Will she hate me? Besides, what would Jesica do to Ariel if she knew I loved Ariel?' whispered Joel's heart.

"Don't think about things that don't necessarily happen" Bram said without stopping his steps.

"Ariel is not what you think" he continued.

"Whatchu mean? I don't_,,,"

"You think Ariel might hate you if she finds out about you and Jesica, don't you?" cut Bram.

Joel stopped his steps and turned towards Bram who was still stepping and stopped in front of him, then turned to face Joel.

"Sooner or later, she'll still know about you and Jesica. But before he finds out, you're the one who has to tell him in your own way" Bram said.

"But for now, we better find a way to keep them from meeting. Maybe this sounds selfish, because I'm also part of what has hurt Ariel. But, if Ariel meets up with Jesica in the near future, I'm afraid Ariel will lock herself in more" Bram said.

Bram turned around and continued his steps followed Joel.

"All right, I agree" said Joel.

A pause of silence occurred for a while until they reached the parking lot.

"Hey,, Bram. Tell me! What made you come to see me?"joel asked suddenly only realized this was the first time Bram had met him at his place of work.

"Have you forgotten or what? Tomorrow is Ariel's birthday, of course I want to make a surprise for her. And I need your help, of course," Bram said.

"You sure you said that to me?" sindir Joel's.

"Don't start an unnecessary fight!" grunts Bram.

"You rejoice like you're not, Bram. Wouldn't it be natural for me to be suspicious of you?" hatch Joel.

"Because I want to compete healthily with you, one thing's for sure, you're not as bad as I imagined, '" she continued.

"What if Ariel picks me?" greet Joel.

"That's better than that guy named Ken" Bram replied furiously.

"Ah you're right, we still don't know who benama Ken, other than he is Ariel's protege," Joel said.

"Did you still remember his face?" ask Bram.

"Not really, but if I see her one more time, I'll remember" Joel said.

"Then we find out tomorrow. We'll just go get Ariel. But what reason would that sound reasonable?" said Bram put his thumb and index finger in the chin.

"Can you play music?" joel asked suddenly.

"Well, can. But not as good as Ariel" he replied.

"Then? What connection?" ask Bram.

"We use that only. He would be happy and would not suspect if we asked him to teach us to play an instrument" said Joel.

"I agree," smbut Bram pleased.

"For her surprise problem, I've prepared something. It's not big, I'll set it up on the roof of his apartment" Bram said.

"So if you get off work tomorrow, help me when Ariel's not in her apartment" Bram said.

"Happy," greeted Joel with a big smile.

They fell silent and looked at each other for a while, then laughed. They realize the same thing. No matter what, they just wanted Ariel to keep smiling.
