6. You come?!

 *****

 Makeup looks elegant on Ayla's beautiful face. She looked at her face in the mirror. A face that fascinated the Adams, including Bagas. The man wanted to marry her.

 Ayla was speechless, silence enveloped her. Her mother looks very excited to take care of her to look beautiful in front of Bagas, what is that important? Indeed, if Ayla was no longer beautiful, Bagas would not like her.

 "Well, it's finished," she said smiling looking at God's creation that seemed perfect in front of her. The woman saw the makeup she gave her, it looked perfect, even though she was still very amateur.

 "Wow, Mom's child is very beautiful tonight. But..." said the woman immediately changed her expression from a smile to a frown, when she saw Ayla's expression. Her hand is placed on his chin and with raised eyebrows

 ". The woman's face was a little sad.

 "Don't you like it?" her mother asked. The woman's question invited Ayla to cast her vote. She had been dreaming until she didn't pay attention to what her mom was saying, but that one sentence brought Ayla out of her imagination.

 "What do you mean Mom?" asked Ayla a little hoping that her mom wanted to annul her engagement with Bagas.

 "I mean your makeup, baby. Don't you like it? Because you haven't shown any interest at all since then.

 "Ah, well. Ayla likes it, Mom." Instantly a beautiful forced smile appeared on Ayla's face. Smile like a clown. Ayla thought that her mom would be sensitive to her feelings. No, her mom was not sensitive at all.

 Ayla grabbed the woman's hand. The woman-Mom smiled sweetly. She wanted to reveal all the restlessness in her heart.

 "Mom, if I cancel this engagement, will you agree?" Ayla blurted out could not hold back her words.

 Ayla's mom who heard her words reflexively pulled her hand from Ayla's grip.

 Instantly her mother's face which was filled with a smile suddenly disappeared and was replaced with tension.

 The woman lifted her head to the sky as she took a deep breath.

 She grabbed Ayla's shoulders. She looked at her face with affection.

 "Girl, your father loves Bagas and his family very much, and your dad doesn't want you to marry a man who is not his choice. He wants the best for you and also, do you want to embarrass our family? Because the news of your engagement has spread. If it's about love, then Mom can say, love can grow because of getting used to it, so please understand, girl"

 **

 Ayla was led by her mother out of the family room, where the Bagas family had gathered.

 Ayla is undecided about whether she should accept this engagement or not.

 Their steps were getting closer, and the smiles of Bagas and his family appeared in front of Ayla.

 'They're so excited,' thought Ayla.

 Seeing Ayla, Bagas immediately approached and said a sentence that would sound beautiful, if the one who said it was Arya, not Bagas.

 "You are very beautiful tonight Ayla," said the man with a beautiful smile. Truly, Bagas is a handsome figure, no less handsome than Arya, who has a sharp nose, thick eyebrows, a strong jaw, and a sharp gaze. But all that could not make Ayla's heart turn away. Even though he has been chasing Ayla for a month with his sweet behavior, Ayla's heart can't be broken, the barrier is too high that it can't be reached.

 Ayla could only show her flat face when she heard the compliment.

 Her mom, who was watching Ayla, immediately nudged her, ordering her to smile. Ayla knows that very well.

 The smile finally appeared on her beautiful face. Making Bagas who was standing not far from her breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Ayla's smile.

 A few minutes finally passed. Time seems to run like a snail now, according to Ayla. She is still busy with her thoughts and choices. Should she tell her heart, that she wants to cancel this engagement or accept it without any resistance?

 "So when do we carry out their engagement?" Ayla, who had been silent for a while, stood up and said, "Wait! I have something to say!" Instantly everything became silent. All gazes turned to her.

 Ayla gripped her dress tightly. She was very afraid.

 "I... I..." Ayla said nervously.

 'Come on Ayla be brave, this is for your future!'

 'Tell Ayla, why should you be afraid, it's not a crime!' Ayla thought

 "I... I... don't want the date to be too soon I need a month!" said Ayla quickly. In the end, the real sentence can only be stored in the deepest recesses. She was too cowardly to speak her heart.

 Instantly the tension that had occurred disappeared. Everyone laughed at Ayla's words.

 "Haha, uncle thought earlier that you wanted to cancel the engagement, like in the movies. Ah, uncle's mind is indeed there hahaha,"said the man, laughing happily. He shook his head with all his ridiculous thoughts, which turned out to be all buried truths.

 Questions and answers continued until an agreement was reached. Their engagement date is next month. At least Ayla had another month to calm down and prepare her heart.

 *****

 ~Abraham's company

 A man was busy studying all the files that had been given to him. More than a month had passed, he had been struggling with these documents, and he had learned a lot. Luckily, he has completed his education in the office sector. So it's not too difficult for him to learn everything.

 His assistant taught carefully. They did not feel suspicious of Devan who was in front of them. Because Hanum-his mom had said that she lost his memory and then learned everything all over again and anything about Devan's weirdness that was all the cause of the accident.

 Arya, at first was very surprised because Devano's assets exceeded his expectations. Devano's treasure even to be squandered will never run out. He is very rich. His wealth can support more than 7 descendants even though there are so many.

 Hanum-His mom doesn't want him to work too hard just like Devano. He wants Arya to focus on his revenge and also find out the mastermind behind the death of his son Devano Abraham.

 Suddenly a knock on the door broke his concentration.

 'Knock Knock'

 "Who? Come in!

 Seen in front of him stood a man who he knew was one of his business partners, where he-Devano Abraham was the one who gave the biggest investment to the man's company, if he withdraws all his investment funds, the company will certainly go bankrupt.

 Devano looked at the man with a flat gaze with a raised brow implying a question for the master he was staring at.

 "Good afternoon Mr. Devan. I mean that I came here because I wanted to deliver an invitation to my engagement.

 "...I delivered it personally especially for you as a business colleague which I appreciate. I would be very happy if later you could come to my engagement party." The man is none other than Bagas. The man who will be engaged to Ayla. Arya's ex-girlfriend.

 Devano did not know who the candidate from the man was, so he accepted the invitation with a smiling face.

 "I will come."

 "Thank you, sir, I'm sorry. Sorry for disturbing your time," said the man happily and walked away.

 Arya then opened the invitation letter that looked luxurious.

 Slowly but surely. Rows of words began to appear in Arya's retina. The writing that looks elegant makes Arya sure this invitation is very expensive. He began to read, sentence by sentence. Until one sentence made him touched.

 He was shocked.

 The writing in gold ink adorned the invitation with a beautiful shape,

 Written, Bagas and Ayla Sudirja.

 Arya's hand weakened until the invitation fell.

 'So because of this, you left me? Because that man is richer than me,' Arya thought. He picked up the invitation again and then kneaded it until it became wrinkled and unformed.

 'For the past few days I have not intended to look for you Ayla, but it turned out that you came to me in the form of an invitation letter. Well we'll see, what a good game to play, Arya thought, but his heart ached a little. Really.
