Amel, now stuck in traffic with Professor Malik, sighed repeatedly.

She was unsure what to tell Ethan after this. Unfortunately, Amel had forgotten to let her brother know where she was.

Playing with Professor Malik in the fruit orchard had made Amel forget to inform Ethan of her whereabouts until her phone had already died.

"Oh no... Ethan must be worried about where I am now," Amel thought to herself.

She was really concerned about that man. Amel was afraid her brother might start thinking the worst.

Amel was at a loss for what to say now. Everything seemed to have vanished from her mind.

Ethan let out a long sigh. He had no idea what to say at that moment.

"Ugh... what should I do now? Why did the road have to get jammed? It's not usually like this," Amel monologued to herself.

Amel could be seen occasionally glancing out her car window, trying to figure out why the road had suddenly become so congested.

"Is everything okay, Amel? It looks like there was an accident up ahead. Peopl

    "Ethan!" Amel called out when she spotted Ethan standing silently, lost in thought.The man was standing on the balcony of his room. Amel, sensing something was wrong, approached him.At first, Ethan barely noticed the woman's presence. He then managed a small smile when he saw his sister."You're not asleep yet?" Ethan asked, to which the woman shook her head.How could she sleep soundly when something was clearly troubling her brother? It was difficult for her to act indifferent towards him, especially considering that everything that had happened to Ethan was partly her fault.The breakup between Ethan and Citra wouldn't have happened if Amel hadn't acted foolishly and gotten trapped in the situation created by Martin.Feeling sorry for what had happened to her brother, Amel moved closer to him. She smiled softly and hugged Ethan tightly."I'm sorry, bro," Amel mumbled as she embraced him.She let out a long sigh. If only she had been braver, perhaps Ethan wouldn't be experiencing

    "Have you had breakfast?" Martin asked, trying to make small talk with the woman.Citra was staring straight ahead, arms folded across her chest as she shot a sharp glance at the man."What do you think? I just woke up and you're already at my house. You didn't even make an appointment first. Do you think my life revolves only around you?"Citra rolled her eyes, clenching her fists tightly.She looked ready to give the man in front of her a solid punch.A long sigh escaped Citra's lips; she had no other choice now.It was clear she could only resign herself to the situation.There was nothing else the woman could do now, she was completely at his mercy.A wide smile now spread across Martin's lips; he felt very satisfied seeing Citra unable to resist him at all."If you'd said you weren't ready, I would have waited until you finished getting ready, Citra. You should have just said if there was a problem or anything," Martin said, making Citra shake her head firmly.The sooner her busi

    Milena smiled crookedly, looking at the man with a gaze that seemed to bring him down."Are you sure you want to say that to me? Do you know what I have right now? What if what I have now actually has an impact on the person you love so much? Hm?"Ethan furrowed his brow, not understanding at all what the woman was saying.From the crooked smile that was now clearly visible at the corner of Milena's lips, Ethan began to understand that the woman possessed something that made her dare to threaten him."Are you sure you want to let me go? I know you're not a fool who can't understand the situation or the words I'm saying right now," Milena said again with a fixed and characteristic gaze at the man.Like it or not, Ethan could only sigh, resigned to what the woman was saying to him."Are you sure you still want to ignore me?" asked Milena, causing Ethan to then look at her blankly.He then turned his gaze to all the employees who had now gathered, intending to secure the woman."You all

    A long sigh escaped the man's mouth. He felt that lately, there were always problems weighing heavily on his mind.There was always something forcing Ethan to control his emotions.He didn't know how to escape from it all or at least how to find peace without disturbances. Ethan just wanted his days to no longer be burdened by difficult things.He felt he had been patient and controlled himself enough, but what could he do? It was like spilled milk - impossible to undo.Now Ethan could only resign himself and hope for a change in the fate he had to face.Just as Ethan returned to his office, he was suddenly startled by the presence of a woman there.He furrowed his brow, confused by the woman sitting sweetly in front of his desk."What business do you have here?"Ethan's entrance immediately caught the woman's attention.She turned, allowing Ethan to clearly see who she was."Hi! Good afternoon, sorry if I... I mean, if I'm waiting here. Someone said you weren't here," said the woman,

    Citra was now clearly seen moving away from that man, going anywhere that would distance her from him. As much as possible, Citra avoided being noticed as she left the boutique where they were supposed to choose clothes.She couldn't believe what Martin had said, how dare that man steal and create a design based on the dress she had made. The marriage between Citra and that man was completely unwanted by Citra, not even a little bit.Yet, that man had the audacity to create a design matching the dress Citra had intended to wear at her dream wedding."I can't accept any of this, that man has really crossed the line. He shouldn't have acted so rudely. I can't forgive the mistake he's made. I know he's deliberately doing all this to get revenge on me. I... I hate him so much," Citra muttered in her heart.She couldn't even think about what was happening to her now.Everything felt so noisy in her head.A long sigh escaped the woman's mouth as she turned her gaze to look at her surroundin

    Ethan let out a long sigh, furrowing his brow as his gaze shifted to a female customer in the cafe whose appearance looked almost identical. He watched every step that took the woman out of his sight."This must all be just my imagination," Ethan thought to himself.Ethan understood that it was all highly improbable. How could she be in the same place as him? Considering that the woman in Ethan's mind was surely busy with her wedding preparations by now.The man could only comfort himself at that moment. A sweet smile now perfectly formed at the corner of Ethan's lips as he tried to stay strong, even though his heart said otherwise. He then shifted his gaze, looking in another direction."Nike," Ethan muttered, as if just realizing there was another man who then carried a plastic bag of orders from the cashier's desk, following the steps of the woman Ethan had previously seen.The man suddenly stood up, straightening his body, which caught Mahira's attention. The woman felt confused a

    Amel blinked her eyes, trying to find the right reason and a way to get out of the current problem.She was truly confused about how to retrieve the book that Professor Malik was currently stepping on."You're sure you've taken all the books I asked for, right? Don't tell me you forgot to get the book?" asked Professor Malik, who looked suspiciously at the woman who was just silent as if not thinking about anything at that moment.Professor Malik's gaze was clearly focused on the woman sitting in front of him.Amel felt tired of being blamed constantly, but what could she do? The typical clumsy human who was suddenly announced as a teaching assistant really made Amel feel continuously unlucky about her life.Not wanting to add more problems, Amel was forced to just tell the truth now.Especially seeing the book that now might become more damaged because it was unknowingly caught under the shoe of the man in front of her."I'm sorry, sir. But the book you're looking for is currently un

    Amel's condition, still deep in guilt, made her unable to think clearly anymore.She became more sensitive and couldn't hear words like what Professor Malik had said at all.A long sigh escaped Amel's mouth. To hell with all the strange looks people would give her as she left Professor Malik's room with swollen eyes still streaming tears.She also didn't care if her course grade with Professor Malik would be reduced or whatever else according to that man's policies.It was clear how Professor Malik immediately quickened his pace, leaving behind all the work he should have been doing to chase after that woman.For some reason, Professor Malik felt he didn't want there to be any distance between himself and Amel.It didn't matter if at that moment, he would become the center of attention of passersby because he was chasing Amel.The two of them briefly looked like a couple where one was sulking while the other, the male figure, was trying to chase, persuade, and coax her.Professor Mali

    As promised to the woman, Ethan decided to go to Citra's house and talk to her parents.His hand, which was already holding several plastic bags filled with fruits, was immediately taken over by a household assistant when the man arrived at Citra's house. Citra, who was at the top of the stairs, immediately descended it, smiling when she saw that he was already at her house. This was something she had been waiting for, she was really happy that the person she loved would express his desire to marry her to her parents. "Your parents are there, right Citra?" Asked Etha after the two of them decided to sit on a fairly soft sofa in the living room.Citra wanted to answer, but suddenly from the other direction came the voice of Citra's father. "We're here, Ethan." Ethan turned his head towards our parents who were currently walking towards the two of them and decided to sit on the opposite sofa. Suddenly, the man's heart was unsafe in the presence of Citra's parents, as if he really fel

    After their romantic dinner, Ethan drove slowly towards Citra's house. But before he actually left he turned to Amel who was still on the terrace of the restaurant. "Come on Amel, let's go home together," said Ethan who couldn't possibly leave his sister alone at the restaurant.Amel smiled, of course she couldn't possibly interfere with the two of them being together. She then shook her head and said, "Don't worry, Ethan, I'll go with lecturer Malik. In a few minutes he will come to pick me up."Hearing the words from Amel made Ethan nod his head, he then decided to get into Citra's car, considering that Citra brought a car and there was no way if he let her drive alone. He then got into the car after making sure Citra was in the car. He then began to drive the car through the crowded city. While driving, Ethan occasionally turned his head towards Citra, feeling happy that she had accepted his feelings. Even though he had felt that she would not accept his feelings, especially sin

    For a long time Ethan waited for Citra's arrival who had yet to show her nose. He really felt worried if she didn't come to see him in the end. Even though he had tried to give his best to her. If she didn't come, what about her? Will he continue to wait like this and not express his feelings? Of course that can't happen. He had to keep expressing his feelings to her and hope that she would come soon and accept his feelings.Amel, who had been beside the man all along, of course knew what the man was worried about. It had been more than 10 minutes since the woman he was waiting for had shown her nose, and he was also afraid that she wouldn't come in the end. But Amel thought that the woman would definitely come, considering that she seemed so worried about her brother's condition and always tried to get close to him. But why she hadn't shown up yet made her feel worried."Why hasn't Citra come yet?" Amel muttered to herself. Her gaze continued to settle on the door of the restaurant,

    Tonight as planned, Ethan and Amel went to a restaurant that the man had booked in advance. Of course, this is because he wants to express his feelings to someone so special. That someone, of course, was none other than Citra. Tonight, he was going to express those feelings to her. He had been harboring his feelings for a long time, and it was time for him to express them. He didn't want her to leave him and choose to be with another man who was more serious. He must choose to be serious before someone else is serious to that woman."How is it, Brother Ethan? Are you ready now?"Of course, Amel as the younger sister of the man agreed with her brother's idea. She certainly wanted to see her brother happy together with the woman he loved. Moreover, she was a good woman who never left her brother under any circumstances, and she liked her very much. Besides being kind, she was also beautiful and very smart. There were so many women who envied that woman, and so many men who wanted to mak

    After a few days of hospitalization, Ethan decided to go home because he was now in a better condition than before. His gaze then turned towards a woman who was currently standing not far from him. The woman was none other than Citra who was staring at him while wearing a smile. Of course, Citra knew that this time they decided to go home because last night the man said he no longer felt at home in the hospital. Actually, Ethan still had to be treated in order to be really in good condition, but since he felt uncomfortable in the hospital, inevitably, Citra agreed to the man's request and chose to take care of him when at home. At least the man wouldn't feel bored if he was at home."We're going home now, right, Citra?"The man asked again because he was afraid that suddenly a doctor or nurse would try to get in the way. Ethan already felt tired and shouldn't be in a hospital like this which would only make him more tired. Actually, he wasn't doing anything and wasn't really doing muc

    Leona left the hospital with blurred eyes. She really felt sad because she got a rejection from the man who was supposed to be hers. How could that man reject her, after so many men wanted to have her and wanted to make her their lover? But what about that man? Yes, not affected by him at all. He should have had the same feelings as other men when he was close to her. But, unfortunately, that man seemed to have no heart.Leona, who continued to walk and saw nothing, suddenly bumped into a man who was just about to enter the hospital. The man was quite surprised when someone suddenly bumped into him. Luckily, he immediately tried to catch Leona who was about to fall or else she would have fallen on the floor."I'm sorry that I didn't see," Leona said, feeling a little guilty for suddenly realizing that she was trying to make a man fall because of her negligence.Without caring about the man, Leona decided to quickly walk away. In fact, she did not heed the man's calls at all. Meanwhile

    "Ethan, I have something to say to you, Ethan."After a long period of silence where it was just the two of them, Leona felt that this was her chance to express her feelings for him. After all, how long was she going to keep her feelings bottled up? The man in front of her had to know that she actually had feelings and wanted to be in a relationship. Even though he knew that the man liked Citra, but still, he should at least let him know that he had more feelings for the man and hope that those feelings would be reciprocated by the man.Ethan frowned in confusion, looking suspiciously at the woman in front of him. What was the woman going to ask? That is, what did she want to say? There seemed to be something quite important that the woman wanted to say, but somehow she was not ready to listen to it. However, refusing to listen didn't seem like a good idea, so inevitably she chose to nod her head, letting the woman say everything she wanted to say, even though she didn't like what the

    "How are you, Ethan? Are you okay?"Leona asked immediately when she was right inside the man's room. It appeared that the man was currently hospitalized, and he was on a bed with a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened to him. Though it was clear that the man had been kidnapped by someone unknown to Leona. She didn't know who had tried to kidnap the man. It seemed like she would ask later after having a short conversation with the man.Ethan smiled as he nodded his head. He knew that Leona had also helped search for him by mobilizing several men, as well as Leo who did not remain silent when he was in danger. The two of them were really instrumental in finding him, making him feel happy to have people close to him who were so kind and willing to look for him when in danger."I'm fine, Leona. Thank you for worrying about me."Leona just nodded her head. The woman decided to put down the fruits she had bought at a shop on the side of the road. She placed it right on the table,

    "Where am I?"Ethan's gaze turned right and left, trying to ascertain where he was. Last he remembered, he was in a stuffy warehouse where people were trying to torture him, let alone a fat man who was so creepy. But why was she in a place that was all white, as if it was a hospital? It was because she had come to the hospital before, and had even been a patient. But, how could he be in a hospital like this now? Shouldn't he still be in the warehouse?Those questions kept swirling in his brain until he finally caught the face of someone smiling at him. It was Citra, a woman who was always by his side when he was not well. She smiled as if she was happy to see him awake."Citra, how did I get here? Wasn't I in a warehouse before?" he asked, staring at the beautiful woman whose gaze was currently drawn to him.Citra gave him a smile. She then helped the man to sit up and rested his head right on the back of the bed. "It's a long story, Ethan. But everything is fine now. You're safe now.
