I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU
47. Open to Each Other

"What makes you think I'm mad at you?" ariel asked breaking the silence.

They simultaneously looked at Ariel with a look of disbelief.

Ariel looked straight ahead. The training room looks spacious with musical instruments arranged neatly.

"To be honest, I'm the one who should apologize to you. I've messed up what you guys are prepared for just because my mood isn't good" Ariel said.

"And it was we who caused it to happen" Bram said.

"No," Ariel shook her head. " Even if Charlie doesn't give you the address he's at, Jessi always has a way of finding the person he's looking for" Ariel replied.

"Stay, I was the one who got Jesica there, and screwed things up" Charlie regretted.

"Then" Ariel turned to look at Charlie.

"Tell me, did you expect that to happen?" ask Ariel.

"What's? Of course not," replied charlie quickly.

"That's exactly what I wanted to say. None of you want this to happen, do you?"

"In addition, I had also predicted that one day I would meet him again, only I did not expect in this way," said Ariel.

Ariel sipped her drink again and took a deep breath.

"Then, for you Joel," said Ariel staring at Joel.

"Don't look at me like that,!"

"It's like you're so overwhelmed by the fact that you and Jessi have a relationship. Didn't I tell you, I won't urge you to tell me what you don't want to tell me?" ariel was calm.

"No, I'm no longer in a relationship with him. He's just my past," Joel argued.

"That's right" Charlie said.

"The relationship ended long enough. I can prove it to you, " Charlie explained.

"I know, you don't have to do it, Charlie," Ariel said.

"Really?" ask Charlie.

Ariel nodded slowly, and turned her eyes back.

"Then why didn't you return my message? and their message? Didn't even pick up the phone from us" asked Joel.

"Because I'm focused on preparing for their show. I can't ignore them just because of my personal problems. After all, the show will be their dream" explained Ariel.

"The shows are just a matter of days, and I want to make sure they perform as well as possible" he continued.

"So, are they both going to perform?" ask Bram.

"One of them didn't, he just asked me to train him outside of his training hours with my friend, Gerry. That was enough to help Ken. That's why I trained the two of them together" explained Ariel.

"Although this performance is an orchestra, there will be times when he will play solo" he added.

"Ahh, so it seems," sighed Joel.

Silence enveloped them. However, in contrast to when they came, the burden on their hearts was lifted after hearing Ariel's explanation.

Bram looked at Ariel who was still looking straight ahead. It made him think of Jesica and the possible bad things that Jesica would do to Ariel.

"I don't want to spoil the atmosphere, but_," Bram hung up his sentence and looked at Ariel who turned to him.

"From now on, you have to be more careful, Ariel," Bram said anxiously.

"Looking at yesterday's situation, I thought Jesica would do something to fulfill her wish" Bram said

"I know, and I thought the same thing, too" replied Ariel.

A feeling of anxiety crept into Joel's heart as he suddenly recalled the threat that Jesica had thrown at him.

His mind thought of the worst possible thing Jesica would do to Ariel.

"What if Jesica does something reckless? Did something bad to you, Ariel?" joel said anxiously.

"Just like you, I know Jessi too. Even though what I know is the fake side. But I understand his way of thinking, Joel," Ariel said calmly.

"You can't underestimate the threat coming out of his mouth, Ariel. He did not accept defeat" Charlie said anxiously.

"I thank you for caring about me. And you should know, I would never take his words as a bluff, at least not again" said Ariel.

The silence lasted for several moments until they finished their drinks.

"Are you really not angry?" tanya Bram makes sure once again.

"Absolutely not. But, it's a lie if I'm not surprised by the fact that I get," said Ariel throwing her empty can of drinks in the trash.

"How come? You two," Ariel pointed at Bram and Joel in turn.

"Have a relationship with him?" continue with raised eyebrows.

"I can't comment" chirped Charlie raising both his hands.

"Errr,,, that, that," Joel looked at Bram who was also doing the same thing as if he had just realized something.

Charlie looked at Ariel who was also looking at him and moved his head. The next instant laughed out loud at Joel and Bram's reaction.

"What makes you laugh?" bram protest.

"It's nothing" Charlie replied.

Ariel nodded in agreement then smiled looking at the three of them in turn.

"Ah, before I forget it. You should come when Ken's show is held. This is his first show, because he will be performing in three at the closing of the show," Ariel explained after her laughter subsided.

"Third?" they simultaneously asked.

"really. Ken, Oliver and Gina. You've met the two of them in the show before" explained Ariel.

"When exactly was the show?" ask Joel.

"Four days are coming" replied Ariel.

"I'm definitely coming" Bram replied quickly.

"I couldn't have ignored my friend's invitation" Charlie continued.

"I couldn't have missed it either" Joel said.

"Thank you" Ariel smiled.

A large house that looks like a sweet looks lonely with only a few people in it.

Jesica was sitting in a gazebo with a laptop in front of her. Shortly after, the phone next to him rang.

Jesica grabbed her phone without seeing who was contacting her.

"Yes,?" the answer after bringing the phone closer in his ear.

"He's training music in a music studio" explained someone from Jesica's mobile phone.

"What's the name of the studio?" ask Jesica.

Jesica immediately typed the name of the studio mentioned through his laptop. The next second, he smiled with satisfaction.

"What else did you get?" ask Jesica again.

"In the next four days, he was invited to participate in an orchestral performance. And of course the musical instruments used are devoted to him," he explained.

"The show?" Jesica repeated the caller's speech with a frown. "What musical instruments are you using?" coined.

"Piano, Cello and Violin" he explained .

"Good work" said Jesica.

Jesica ended her call, then smiled cynically.

"I don't think you're any better now than I used to know. You even train those who will perform on music shows that can catapult anyone who plays there" said Jesica.

"Let's see how far your luck will last. I just need to break the legs that support you until you can stand up until now, and make you fall again until you forget how to stand up" Jesica told herself.
