I'm Not Daria
The man Daria bought

We were both frozen in place when we heard the clear click-click sound of heels on the marble floor.

I held my breath in anticipation

"Daria, there's someone who wants to meet you," Bella's enthusiastic voice made my heart thump.

We didn't turn around, Bella called me again and grabbed my arm to turn around.

As soon as I turned around, I met a nightmare next to Bella.

He smiled at me. He could have recognized me and then leaked my secret in a room full of hundreds of people, and more would have come.

He stepped forward and thought he would hit me, but he hugged me instead. To say that I was surprised was an understatement.

When he pulled away, he smirked at me. "Happy birthday, Daria."

"Prittas." I exhaled.

"It's good you still remember me." He giggles.

"What are you doing here?"

He nodded towards me, clearly looking confused. "Whatchu mean? It's my childhood friend's birthday and you didn't expect me to come?"

"What?"

"Well, if Mrs. Daralyn didn't invite me, I'll never know you were found. I have to admit I was very disappointed when she told me that you were found a month ago. Why don't you try to call me? Indeed, once we grow up, we are no longer in touch as we once were, but that does not mean you do not return and do not even tell me about it. I was very hurt," he said in an angry tone.

"What?" I asked again.

Does he really think that I am Daria too? Does he not remember a girl named Darla in one of his classes who had a fight with him?

"Why do you look so surprised? Is there something on my face?" He asked, palpating his cheek if there was anything.

"Nothing..." I looked at Anna and she just looked at us with her lips slightly open

"Who is this?" Pritta asked while looking at Anna. Anna and I went to a different college and I only met her at a cafe or just hanging out together, so there's no way she'd get to know her from anywhere.

"Oh, uh. This is Arianna calling her Anna, she's my friend."

"It's nice to meet you." Anna said

"I'm Pritta Olivia, Daria's childhood friend".

"Oh yeah? wow" Anna said with a blank look

"If you don't mind, can I talk to Daria, alone?" ask Anna Pritta.

Anna shrugged her shoulders

"All right."

I wanted to yell at him for leaving me alone with Pritta, but I refrained from doing so

Pritta sat next to me in the bar stool and ordered a drink for himself

"There are many things I want to ask you and many things I want to tell you"

"OKAY. What do you want to ask?"

"Everything. Tell me everything about the escape you've done."

I sighed in my heart before repeating the same story

"Whoa. Looks like you're having fun." Pritta said as he sipped his wine

"Yes, sort of, sort of"

"OK, now I'm going to tell you something unbelievable. You won't believe it until you see it for yourself". His eyes were wide and he looked excited

"OK, what is it?"

"I know a girl who looks a lot like you. It makes no difference! You two are like twins!".

I wanted to laugh when I heard it, but I pretended to be surprised. "It's impossible"

"I told you it's unbelievable. That's why I took the picture. Pritta pulled the phone out of his bag and showed a photo.

Look at that I. I was in class, looking straight ahead with the books in front of me. I don't even know when he took that picture.

"Didn't he look like you?"

Pritta put down his phone. "Yes, he looks alike. With makeup, she'll look like you"

"What's his name?"

Adinda Darla Devina Princess of Ghibran and Diana Devina. He is an orphan, adopted by his uncle Kenan and his aunt Elisha. He was the only child of both his parents."

Scary, I'm sure he's been stalking me since I was born!!

"How do you know so much about him?"

"I told someone to check his background."

We were silent for a few minutes.

"I said and did very bad things to her. He didn't deserve it, but I had my reasons" he said, looking very guilty.not believing he felt sorry for bullying me

"What's the reason?"

Pritta looked up to look me in the eye.

"I thought he was you. thought you were disguised as someone else and I wanted to see if I was right, if it was really you. So I tried to get the truth out of him by bullying him. It was not severe and only ever hit him once. That day I was very frustrated because of something, and he was there, but he was the one who hit me first the day before. To be honest, I was being rude to her and saying pretty rude things about her family. At that time I was sure that he wasn't you. And it's stupid of me to think that it's you because you won't go undercover near me, or anyone who knows you for that matter if you run away from us. So, yeah, I deserve that slap".

"Yes, you deserve it" I laughed. Pritta rolled his eyes at me.

"You don't even know what I'm telling her." He rolled his eyes.

"I don't need to know what you're saying to know that you deserve that slap".

He narrowed his eyes at me. "You're evil. Anyway, I'm going to go see my other friends and family now. We should play sometime".

"certain"

Pritta went to talk to some guests and I exhaled a stifled breath.

"Is everything going well?" Bella asked as she took the seat that Pritta had previously occupied

"Yes, everything went well. Did you mention that she's a girl from my college?"

Bella's eyes widened. "What?! Pritta one college with you?

"Yes, but he really believed. She really thinks I'm Daria"

"Wow, do you know each other?"

"Not really, she's not really nice to me."

"really? God, I didn't think pritta would do that." His eyes searched through the crowd, and finally he was fixed on his figure "He is good every time I interact with him."

"She said she did it intentionally. Long story short, she thought it was Daria so she tried to find the truth from me".

"It still doesn't justify his behavior."

I hummed in agreement. The silence happened for a while before it finally broke.

"May I ask you something?"

"certain."

"What really happened between Raka and Daria? I know she's having an affair with her friend, but please explain further what's going on."

"Huh a teen drama. Daria likes Raka, she's a playboy. So she somehow made Raka her boyfriend. All of them were happy for about a month and then on his eighteenth birthday, there is a party at her house and she finds Raka in the bathroom with one of her friends after she takes Daria's virginity that night, so he searched and found the man was in contact with his friend. You must have thought that he apologized immediately, but he didn't !!! He instead thanked her and said that night was the most great night, because he could take the chastity of 2 women at once!!! That was when Daria lost her mind and in revenge, she tried to buy it. Of course his parents refused. She's so embarrassed. He only accepted Daria in order to take away her chastity, and then she was thrown away".

"That's cruel. He's a real jerk. But don't think she ran away because her parents refused to buy her. Why did he run away?"

Bella downed a glass of whiskey at once before putting it on the table.

"Well, you know he's so embarrassed and devastated to lose his chastity to that bastard playboy.he doesn't know how to deal with his parents after a foolish request to buy it. So he just left. He didn't want to be seen as an easy layman and wanted to get away from it"

I'm nodding. "Well I understand, he doesn't deserve it. Raka is a jerk"

"Indeed so. I don't even know why Ms. Daralyn invited him here."

"I wonder what Mrs is thinking. Daralyn when she decided to invite that jerk"

"Maybe he wants to ruin the party. I don't know, I didn't see the guest list."
