Wow, what a pity. I really wanted to meet your parents." Tiana now showed a disappointed face. "Then, let's get word, yeah, if your parents are home."
Alesha merely gave a smile as she nodded lightly. "Good, Ma."
Rafael turned to Alesha and was busy debating himself inwardly.
'Business trip? Is this woman telling the truth? Come to think of it, why would she work as a sugar baby and ask me to give her a hundred million dollars if her parents still work for her?'
However, questions like this have not been prepared to be answered as to what. Right, something like this could not be thought of by him.
Who his parents were, where his parents were, where he came from, Rafael knew absolutely nothing about this woman. Either the woman was telling the truth or lying.
"Ma, it's getting late. Looks like I'll have to drive Alesha home soon." Rafael is now interrupting. He tried his best to stop this conversation.
"Why should I go home? Isn't your parents on a business trip? You must be home alone. You better stay here, okay?" Tiana prevented the hesitant Alesha from wanting to get up from her seat.
Alesha has now become her own misdeed. "I'm sorry, Ma ..." he said hesitantly in a soft voice.
"I can't stay here.
There is something he has to take care of at his house. He also has to leave in the morning tomorrow.
"Ma, please don't make things difficult for Alesha." Rafael is now speaking again, his intonation is more firm and pressing.
Tiana who heard him became left with no other choice. He finally stood up. "All right." He breathed disappointed. "Dearly enough. Mama wants you to stay here longer."
Alesha who was slowly standing up could only smile clumsily. "It's okay, Ma. Next time we'll see each other again."
The woman then developed her wide smile, giving Tiana a hint of calmness.
The three of them then went to the front door with Tiana leading to the departure of Rafael and Alesha.
"See you, Ma." Alesha. E
While Tiana then gave cheek greetings like women in general when greeting each other.
Raphael and Alesha hurriedly left Tiana standing looking at their departure with a flowery heart. It was as if his moments of waiting for hundreds of years paid off satisfactorily.
On the other hand, both are in the car. Alesha exhaled violently, as if throwing away all forms of the charade she had just done together with the carbon dioxide that was coming out through her mouth.
His mind was not so concerned about that ridiculous wedding.
Given her now-critical mother, Alesha really can't imagine herself holding a wedding at such a dangerous time. The present circumstances made him truly feel angry, annoyed, and dazed.
"You didn't say that the wedding plans were going to be this fast." Alesha now started the conversation, with her taut intonation.
Rafael now looked on with an unacceptable look. "You think I know that my mama would act like that?"
The man then started the engine of his car. The car then drove slowly, circled the courtyard to take direction, then left the yard of the house at a slow speed.
"She's your mama. Of course you should be able to predict what will happen. My worries at the beginning were right, right."
"This is the end because we didn't prepare it properly from the beginning."
Alesha was still upset how Rafael suddenly took her to the man's house without talking to him first.
Without a plan, without a mature scenario plan, and without a strategy. Alesha really hates fighting without a gun.
Rafael now breathed. "Yes. Think all you want, but I didn't tell you not to make my mama like me too much."
"When my mom made this decision, I knew it meant she liked you a lot. How do I know that mama's going to go that far."
"Ah, this is really driving me crazy. It's obvious that you're stupid, now blame me." Alesha whispered softly, whether the man heard it or not.
"Miss, you remember signing the contract, don't you? You even read it very carefully without missing a single word, but why are you frustrated yourself now?"
"You really just have to follow whatever's going to happen."
Rafael now wondered, a little surprised by Alesha's attitude now. Though this afternoon, the woman looked very sure, but now she seemed to want to escape as fast as she could.
Alesha now sighed harshly. "You don't understand. Why am I angry that you suddenly took me to see my mama. Why am I this frustrated when your mama told us to get married quickly."
The woman looked at Rafael.
"That's because I can't do anything well in sudden, sudden situations." Then he threw his face away.
Alesha suddenly remembered the events of one year ago. An event that suddenly changed the order of his life.
The sudden circumstances required him to change following the very steep, very steep, twists and turns of life. It was so steep, that Alesha fell and got stuck in the abyss.
Even Alesha still felt that she had not done well until now.
Alesha hated the surprises of her life. He hates something that happens unprepared, which in turn forces him to rush, running until overwhelmed himself at the tip of the horn.
The woman was now grinding her teeth. His hands were moved to squeeze the skirt in order to channel his emotions that could overflow without control.
While on the other hand, Rafael who did not understand, now frowned. He was upset by Alesha's attitude.
Alesha always manages to break through the walls of her patience. He did not understand the temperament of this woman. Sometimes, the woman looks very calm, sometimes very polite, but now she is acting at her best.
"Just because of that you're mad at me all out?" Rafael now asks in an emphasis tone, questioning Alesha's reason for being so selfish and childish.
"Now what do you want to do? Cancel that contract? Can you return the money after that?"
Alesha. Damnit. Again Rafael used the weapon. He's getting confused. In front of Alesha, now everything happened like a roller coaster.
Initially, he was brought up to the top quietly after getting a way out. Then it was as if he was taken to freefall with all the fears that plagued him. Fear of him not being able to take good care of his mother.
While now, that fear seemed to threaten him even more to the very corner. So urgent and make it crowded.
"I don't know. I'm really confused." The woman said slowly. "I can't think straight now."
Rafael heard him, finally only able to sigh slowly. "Think well."
The debate ended in silence that locked each other's mouths. Alesha turned her gaze out the window.
Rafael focused on the steering wheel and the road before his eyes.
The journey is long. However, every second seemed to be walking very slowly for Alesha right now. Every second was a punishment and Alesha looked forward to when the time would end.
He always wondered, is time an eternity that binds everyone and he cannot escape? Always go hand in hand, without allowing it to escape or even jump off its course.
Alesha sometimes wants to jump over time. He wants to open his eyes when things are going well.
A time when there is no fear that he needs to fear.
The woman now leaned her head, closing her eyes for a moment in the hope that she could jump over time when she opened her eyes.
However, a shiver from inside the sling bag on his lap now suddenly touched the surface of his hand skin.
Alesha flinched from her daydream, then picked up her phone.
He opened his phone, then rounded his eyes to see a short message notification that was seen there.
Good night, Miss.
We from the hospital informed you that your mother was conscious. Please be present to find out the condition of the patient further.
Alesha's heart was suddenly racing. The murmur that made his body suddenly cool down. Whether this news was good or otherwise, Alesha still felt very nervous.
The woman then saw the road ahead. Looking at a stop not far ahead, instantly caught his breath.
"Stop!"
"What's wrong?" Raphael who heard Alesha suddenly told him to stop was now confused himself.
"I said stop!" Alesha.
Looking at his serious-looking face, Rafael had no other choice but to stop his car to the edge of the road. "What's up, then?"
Alesha did not answer. He opened his seat belt, then tried to open the door of the car.
"Open the car door!" Alesha's orders.
"You want what you? It's already night. It's not safe for a woman to go down alone. Let me take you home." Rafael refused, now preparing to return to run his car.
"Mr Rafael!" Alesha clash this time stopped Rafael's steps.
Making the man look over while sighing.
"I remind you once again. I'm not that weak woman. I go home alone every night. You don't have to overdo it."
"I advise you not to be too kind to me and remember that we are only colleagues in agreement on white paper. I don't like to sympathize with others." Alesha now looked at him fiercely.
Rafael again had no choice. In the end, he decided to unlock the door of his car.
The woman without further ado went straight out, walking towards the stop that was in front.
After a while of waiting, the woman walked out of her car.
Rafael then turned the car to the right side of the road.
Moments later, he fell silent, thinking why the woman did not want Rafael to take him to her house. Why was he so angry when the man really wanted to help him?
Rafael increasingly felt that the woman had suddenly become such a mysterious figure. But he remembered something.
Before asking her to go down, the woman opened her phone after getting a notification.
What has happened to make it that rushed? Why didn't he tell Rafael to quickly drive him, instead telling him to stop and look for a public vehicle and go alone?
The more questions that came to his mind. Should he find the answer? Rafael this time was so curious about what Alesha did that it was such a rush.
