Sunlight penetrates the window curtain, sunny weather welcomes morning. Gisella who had changed clothes was sipping warm lemon on the balcony of her room. His condition had improved even though his voice was still hoarse. He touched the area of his neck and then switched to his ring finger. White gold plated ring. Gisella then turned around, Ryan was still asleep, either since when the man came home but, his presence turned out to have a little bit of a comfortable effect on him. He approached, stared fixedly at Ryan's face and slowly removed the ring from his finger.
Gisella leaves the man, and goes out to meet Victoria. The woman smiled, "How are you?"
"I'm getting better. Thanks for the lemon water." Gisella replied in a slightly raucous voice.
"Do you want breakfast?"
"Awhile more. When's Ryan coming home?"
"Around 2 am" Gisella nodded in understanding.
"What's my schedule today?"
"You don't have a schedule today. I want you to take a day off today. Rest." Ryan came in his pajamas. He showed Gisella a ring, "Why did you take it off?"
Victoria coded the other waitresses to leave them both.
"Isn't this what you want?" Ask Ryan again.
Gisella looked at Ryan lazily, "How do you think? You gave me a busy study schedule, didn't tell me at all, and suddenly came pinning rings. When I was sick? Don't you think that's outrageous?" He took a breath and neutralized his voice.
Ryan stroked the girl's head softly, "Take it easy, Gisella, don't force your voice. You're still too tired"
Gisella brushed Ryan's hand off. "What if I'm not sick? Are you going home? Ah yes, one more. Why does anyone who claims to be my fiance not even know I'm allergic to shrimp?"
Ryan was silent, this was the most fatal mistake. It turned out that making trickery on this girl was so difficult. That is the basic knowledge that each partner should know, not only the strengths but also the weaknesses of the couple. And... Ryan failed at that basic knowledge.
Gisella smiled lightly. "Forget over. Because, I don't remember anything, maybe I'm your prisoner or I have a debt, or my parents sold me to you? ah... or, are you pretending to be nice to me to make amends?" Ryan immediately stared frozen at Gisella, "Oh, the more I think, the crazier it is. To be sure, you and I aren't in any bindings, I'd venture a bet for that." Clearly firmly.
"Then, what do you really want? You want me to tell you about your past? Are you gonna believe me? Then, if you can't accept the truth when you hear my story, what's your plan?" Ask Ryan no less firmly.
"Why do you think I can't?"
"Yes. I'm sure you can't hold it." The man clasped Gisella's shoulder, "Can't you trust me? Don't think about what my intentions are holding you here, who I am, who you are, what our relationship is, and what I'm planning. You trust me enough. Please, can't you just obey and wait for me!"
Gisella threw away her face, Ryan's pleading gaze made her shake. "I just need certainty. I told you, I'll wait when you're ready to tell me everything. I. I just don't like being ignored, and being approached while I'm dying" he replied.
Ryan cupped the girl's cheek and pointed it straight at her. "You're the owner of this house, that's a fact. I'm not lying about it, don't think about anything and take a break."
"Forget it," Gisella immediately gawked away. His cheeks heated up as he looked closely at Ryan. Gisella's departure became a big PR for Ryan. The man rubbed his face rough, for now this was all he could do.
"So stop working hard and learn how to understand women" Wildan's voice suddenly startled Ryan.
"When did you come?"
"Must"
Ryan looked at his friend who was not happy. "Don't make fun of me when you don't understand women either. Have you ever dated?" Wildan fell silent, turning his gaze "Of course not!" Ryan patted Wildan on the shoulder.
"What's your next plan? If I were Gisella, maybe I'd drop out" she said
"You mean?"
"Of course, Gisella was bored. His job is just learning, learning and learning. I'm pretty impressed that you were able to persuade him, no wonder you made the top 10 most influential CEOs in Asia."
"Is this a compliment?"
"Of course.. insults,"
"Then what should I do?"
"I don't know. Aren't you the one who told me that I also suck at taking care of women?" He relaxed and then turned around.
"Aiish, is he time for me to fire?" annoyed.
Suddenly Gisella came back and made the two step back automatically. "What's wrong?" Ask Ryan. The woman did not answer, took her cup of tea, and left.
"Was the tempramen bad?" whispered Wildan. Ryan shook his head. "His temperament isn't bad, he's a free soul type!"
"How do you know?" ryan asked in an unaccepting tone
"When you told me to give you free hotel and vacation vouchers, she had a lot of vacation plans!" Answer Wildan. "I'm sure, if you take him to Paris or London, you'll go bankrupt" he continued. Ryan just nodded weakly.
***********
"An explosion occurred in a restaurant in Gangnam area at about 2:30 am. Firefighters have come to put out the fire. We have the identities of some victims. The names of the victims were as follows From 25 years old Felisnia, 25 years old Delista," Gilang and Hera stood up when they heard the familiar name. The man froze, convincing himself that the name was not someone he knew.
"23 years of Resnia, 43 years of Fakhrul. The explosion caused the glass of surrounding buildings to be destroyed, other buildings were also affected. People who saw the incident said that before the explosion, they smelled a strong gas smell. The police are still investigating the case."
'Tring... Triing' The sound of the home phone makes Gilang's face more paled.
"I'll pick up the phone" Hera said. However, Gilang held him back and forward received a phone.
"Hallo"
'.........'
Gilang's hands weakened, his body immediately sat weakly.
"What's wrong? the news is... Isn't it true, is it?" She did not answer, she closed her eyes and cried, "My husband! what up! Restii!!"
The girl whose name was called, then came out wearing her steward suit. "What's the morning that's causing a commotion?"
"I'll go make sure. That's not Delista, I'm sure of it!" Said Gilang, his tone sounded desperate to make Resti astonished.
"I have to tell you how many times, don't mention na..."
"CLOSED YOUR MOUTH!!" Cross jolted strongly, then stood looking at his daughter, "Pray that the news is not true. Or.. I won't forgive you!" finished saying that, Gilang immediately left.
Resti turned to his mother for an explanation. "What's going on? why is Dad so angry? Maybe his love for Mom has diminished" he said indifferently.
"Delista..."
"Mother!!"
"He's dead!"
Resti who was about to sit down for breakfast stopped, "What? What did Mom just say? A delista? That kid...dead?"
"Mother will catch up with your father, enjoy your breakfast. I'll call you later!" Hera immediately took off her apron and caught up with her husband, leaving Resti frozen. His hands trembled trying to grab the chopsticks, his jaw hardened and he had trouble swallowing his saliva.
His phone rang with each other, the group message notification was described because of this news.
********
On the other hand, Gisella who was about to go down to take her clothes had to stop when she saw the servants crowded under the stairs.
"What's this about? why are you huddling?"
The servants were surprised, one of them got rid of his phone. Seeing their strange behavior, Gisella grew curious.
"What did you guys see just now? Can't I know that too?"
"It's nothing, ma'am" replied one of them. Gisella did not give up, she reached out her hand asking for a cell phone.
"Give me,"
*******
Ryan was massaging his head after reading an article about Delista. "Why are there so many articles about him in the near future?"
"When we take him, his belongings we stay and may be taken by others. So, the body wasn't Delista"
"Of course not, if this corpse is really Delista. Then do you think this woman in my house is her spirit?" says annoyed.
"Then...what's the next step? luckily he didn't see the TV or hold a cell phone...."
'Braa!!' wildan's voice was cut off because the door was broken suddenly.
"What's this!!" Gisella walked in without excuse, the girl pointed her phone right in front of Ryan's face, "Isn't this my face? Why was I pronounced dead today? I'm Stewardess? my name is not Gisella but Delista? What nonsense news is this!"
"Pon...Whose phone are you holding?" Ryan asked, the man trying to look calm.
"Is that important now? Explain to me why my face is here!" Gisella's tone rose and staring intently at her interlocutor, she gulped repeatedly to neutralize his voice.
"Don't force your voice on Gisella, your vocal cords could be broken" Ryan pleaded.
"Explain..now!"
**************
Police officers removed Delista's alleged body, then removed the covering. Hera was shocked to turn her face away, while Gilang just closed his eyes begging that what he saw was just a dream.
"Pardon us, the state of the corpse is not recognizable at all." Said one of the officers.
"How can I be sure...if this is my daughter?" Ask Gilang. Another attendant who had just arrived gave them the bags and suitcases they had found.
"Is this your son's? we also found this" The officer showed Delista's identification, passport, and flight attendant badge. Glazed to freeze, he did not want to believe about this.
"No..no...this is not Delista.no!!" The man suddenly roared and wept, lamenting the departure of his daughter. "Something's wrong.no. she's not my daughter.."
Resti saw everything from outside the room could only keep his mouth shut, his shocked expression and did not expect the girl to actually die from it at all.
"Why...why did he leave so easily?" ogre.
**********
Gisella looked straight at Ryan, the man sighed, "Can you not look at me like that? You look like you're gonna eat me"
"Just tell me!"
"Are you going to believe me?"
"I have to listen first. Believe it or not, it's my decision."
Ryan took a breath and exhaled loudly, "That's right. You're Delista and you're a flight attendant. You said it yourself, right, that you're a stranger to what you're learning? It's because of your lesson on how to serve the passengers of the plane, not business management lessons!"
"Then? why am I here by the name of Gisella? and who carries Delista's identity?"
Ryan stared doubtfully, "I saved you from an accident. You lost your memory and I gave you a new name about your stuff, I left it and maybe someone else took it."
Gisella swallowed her saliva, "Why? why would you do that to someone you just met?"
"Maybe you don't believe this, but we've been together"
"Don't dare lie, yeah,"
The man gave Gisella a photo of the two making Ramen. "i'm serious. I was on a business trip to Japan, and you were the flight attendant who served me at the time. We accidentally met, and I took you around with me. Of course under the name Delista"
The girl looked at the photo of herself smiling sweetly showing the results of her ramen with Ryan. "Then? why are you taking me with you? you should have taken me to my family."
"You don't have a family."
"No way, do I really have no family? I mean, foster family, or where I come from. A flight attendant is impossible to have a proper education without ....."
"There are, but those who made you have an accident.they didn't look for you at all, you haven't been home for almost a month, but they're not looking for you. You have a half-brother. She's also a flight attendant like you, but no one knows about your relationship. He told you not to tell anyone else. That's what your foster family is like."
"Then? Why did you change my name? why did you claim to be my fiancee? why are you ...."
"There are paparazzi that capture our togetherness, and make articles as if we were indeed dating at that time. The news quickly spread widely, and most of them immediately hated you because it was a deviant. When you had an accident, I was the only one you could hope for."
"Why can?"
Gisella threw her face away, "In the end you're just selfish."
"It's not just me, but I care about you. You accepted the scorn for triviality, I just took you on vacation, but humans are too jealous of those who get lucky." Said Ryan.
"What about my foster family? I can't believe you didn't check them."
"Of course they're fine without you. Your stepbrother is still on duty as usual, as if nothing happened." Answer
Gisella simply lowered her gaze, "That story is so sad. I didn't expect my history to be like that. Not a biological child, abandoned, not considered and discarded. Isn't that...."
'*You are not his real son!!'
'That's fact!!'
'This is a DNA test!'
'I want you dead! GET YOU OUT OF MY LIFE*!!'
A small cut and accompaniment sound suddenly appeared in his memory, awakening the wound in the heart. His head was a little dizzy, the words that came up made Ryan's story even closer to the fact that he was just a pickle boy.
Ryan saw Gisella's reaction to the girl and clasped her hand, "You all right? look at me, Gisella,"
"My head is a little dizzy."
"Did you remember anything?" Gisella nodded weakly, "What kind of love?"
"Someone said that I was not a real child, and he wanted me dead" she said.
"I beg you not to recall your memory, your condition may get worse! Come on, I'll take you to the room" Ryan tried to lead the girl, but he pushed over.
"If my family... if they don't want me. Why would you support me? why...why are you saying that you're just replacing my position?"
The man looked at Gisella straight, "Revenge. I'll support you." Gisella fell silent, not understanding the way the human mind before her.
***********
Resti pulled his suitcase and tried to act as usual and approached his friends. This finger is scheduled for flight to China.
"Resti, have you heard of this? Delista's dead!" Ask Sherly.
"I've heard the news. Too bad, even though she is a reliable flight attendant in her rank." Answer is relaxed
"So.. the woman in the hospital, not Delista?"
"Obsurely another woman. I told you, there's no way the President could have met Delista at the hospital" he said.
"Ah, what a pity. If that's true. It would be great to have rich friends!" Sherly said,
'If that's true, I won't accept it! How could the little fellow have such an easy life?'
"Aren't we supposed to go to Delista's funeral?" Ask Sherly. The flight attendants were ready in their positions for takeoff.
"How is it possible? He didn't even tell me about his home and family." Felish.
"Ah, poor girl."
Resti did not respond to the conversation of his colleagues. Before takeoff, Mom sent a message that her father would cremate Delista's body today.
How can everything be so easy now. There was no Delista, and the news of him would not be long forgotten either.
"I'm curious, with their story in Japan. If you see the fate of Delista ended in death, like this could the President be the mastermind of all this?" Sherly made an assumption.
"Hey, don't assume a no-no"
"I still can't believe it. It hasn't been a month since we flew with Delista from London. He got a business flight offer that day, got into a date with the president, then just disappeared!" The girl looked at her comrades with a reassuring face, "There are two possibilities, the President did kill her, or he hid Delista"
"What are you talking about, don't talk in convolutes! Besides, it was at the restaurant and it was an accident why do you keep on linking up with the President?" asked Viola who was getting interested, Resti also secretly tried to eavesdrop.
"The bodies found in the restaurant are not Delista!"
"Eiihh, that's impossible!" Denied Felish
"All the suitcases, and Delista's identity are there" Welcomed Viola.
"Can it be, that's the President's plan? Making netizens forget about Delista, he locked Delista and gave Delista's things to others. Then, changing the identity and coincidentally the person who took his belongings was apes!"
"Why don't you just be a novelist? Looks like the flight attendant major isn't right for you. You're good at making up and crap, get back to work!" Resti Command.
"Baii!!"
The girl was a little riled up, she brushed off the possibility that Sherly made. Such stories exist only in Korean dramas. Even though such a thing is very easy to do Adryan.
***************
Gilang sprinkled his daughter's ashes into the sea, at his daughter's request. He remembered.
#flashback on
"*Dad, if I die. Please sprinkle my ashes in the sea."
"Oh my god, why are you suddenly talking about it. You're too young."
"She who knows. Yeah."
Gilang stopped his steps, then stroked Delista's head, "Long live my daughter!!" her prayer. The girl smiled and held the hand of the father.
"Long live, my father! The man I love the most on this earth, healthy always and make a lot of money for your daughter!!"
She smiled, "If you find the man you're going to marry, you're going to tell me."
Delista nodded at his father. "Oh, that's impossible. I prefer Dad!!!" he said half-screaming, the two laughing together ending their conversation in the middle of the snow*.
#Flashback Off
"I'm sorry your useless father, the one who didn't call you. I'm really sorry for you, son. You brought me luck in my life, but I can't protect you... I'm sorry." Gilang kneeled hugging the vase filled with Delista's ashes, sobbing in blame. The crying became even more when remembering the face of his daughter, a smiling face said that he was the person Delista loved the most.
Hera looked unsettled when her husband did not answer her at all. Along the way to the house, Gilang seemed uninterested in talking. When they got home, the man went straight into Resti's room and pulled a large suitcase.
"Dear, what are you doing? Why are you cleaning up Resti's stuff?"
Gilang did not reply, he took Resti's shirt and stuffed it into the suitcase roughly. "Tell him not to come back to this house again. Just like, what he did to Delista."
"But, it wasn't him that made Delista not come home, was it?"
"Well, who knows if he's the one who made Delista not want to go home."
"Darling! don't accuse me!"
"I'M THE HEAD OF THE FAMILY IN THIS HOUSE!! But, I can't make them get along with the situation. MY CHEST TIGHT!!! I can't see Delista forever! His reason? BECAUSE MY OTHER DAUGHTER DOESN'T COOL MY DAUGHTER!!"
"BUT, SHE'S NOT YOUR REAL DAUGHTER!!" Hera raised her voice, "Should you go this far?"
"What is my biological child's blessing?" Ask back,
"But I'm bound to you, I'm your wife and my daughter's blessing!" Gilang gulped down his saliva, his eyes stared intently at the wife, then kicked through the closet many times with a burst of rage.
"COGGGGGGHHHH!!! AURGHH!!! YURGHH!!!"
The man slumped down, he looked tired and his eyes were filled with anger. He slowly got up, and looked at Hera, "I will not allow Resti to come home. Point!"
"Say!!"
***********
Elsewhere, Gisella began to check every related article about her. Ryan gave her permission to hold the phone. Everything Ryan said was true.
'The flight attendant got into a date with the President'
He scrolled his phone screen, looking at the angry comments of hundreds of thousands of netizens. They denounced her behavior as a form of wanting to be the president's wife.
'*I think he sold his body'
'He smeared the stewardess' name'
'I was ashamed of my flight attendant profession, when I saw her licking the president!'
'Happy, his life didn't even touch the hard word level*!'
"What the hell," He let out a heavy sigh, this was indeed in accordance with what Ryan had told him. But, for the part of the man telling him to learn about the company, telling him that he was only replacing his position even more so, this house is his. If she's just a flight attendant, why bother taking care of the company? If Ryan hadn't told me this part, maybe people would have bothered him for trying to take the company, right? What did that man really think?
"What about Gisella?" Wildan followed Ryan into the man's study. He seemed interested in the way Ryan was looking for a way out.
"I've told you everything. Not everything, just the part he dumped and I'm his savior. Because that's the most important part"
"How do you explain the part about studying the company? If I were him, it would be awkward for me" Wildan said
"Let's not know what she's thinking, I'm just saying that I support her if she wants revenge."
"Revenge?"
"If I were him. Discarded, unappreciated and unrecognized, then vilified with paparazzi. Don't you feel like killing them?" Ask Ryan.
"It depends, I feel Gisella is not the vengeful and crazy type of treasure"
'Braa!!'kkk!!!'
The two men were shocked when Ryan's office door was smashed hard, Gisella appearing with a restless face mixed in fret. The two men only exchanged glances, hinting 'Is he eavesdropping?'
"What's your real plan? You say this is my home, you also say that you're taking my place. This part, I don't understand."
Wildan looked at Ryan, his guess was that Gisella would not accept it easily.
"Can't you try to understand? Because you won't understand."
"What exactly do you want?"
Ryan looked closely at the girl in front of him, "Can you just shut up by my side? that's all I want"
"Do you think I want to?"
"You don't want to?" Ryan reconfirmed the question. The first time he was rejected was a girl and it made his pride hurt. He glanced at Wildan, the man seemed to enjoy the drama of rejection that he received.
"Ogh, if with a face like this." Ryan and Wildan turned to Gisella at the same time. Both of them did not understand the girl's intentions.
"I don't understand the company part or when you say I'm the owner of this house. But, for your story, I work as a flight attendant...." Gisella quit. "I believe."
"What?"
"You ruined my name, hmm. I mean Delista's name. I don't remember anything, but if my memory recovers I'll do the same. Defamation."
Ryan almost held back his laughter, "Does that make sense? Defamation of good name? Don't you think that's overkill? We're enjoying the holidays, you see for yourself, right? you even smile cheerfully." Wildan nodded quickly.
Gisella folded her hands together, "That's not what I want to talk about. But about your offer."
"My offer??"
"Let's get revenge. With a different face"
***************
