#One Year Later.


Rena pressed the password button of an apartment, she brought some lunch boxes in her hands, then entered.


"Resti!!! Are you awake?? Mommy's coming!" The woman immediately approached the child's refrigerator, seeing the supplies were almost exhausted she smiled happily. "You almost spent it all yeah," he turned to replace the old lunchbox with a new one.


"Hallo Mother,"


Rena averted her gaze, upon hearing the voice of the man greeting her. He raised his eyes because the man was bare-chested, "YOU ARE WHO!!! why are you here?!" He asked half screaming.


"Include me Trias, I'm Resti's lover."


"What?"


"Love? What nonsense are you talking about!" Resti was present carrying Triassic's belongings and gave them to the owner, "Go."


"Ok, Baby." The man kissed Resti's cheek and packed, "Mother, I'm saying goodbye."


"Who are you calling Mom!" Rena did not accept, the man just waved his hand without turning his head. Hera looked back at her daughter, "Is she really your lover?"


"Not"


"Then why did you sleep with her?"


"Just for fun. Nothing special Mom, she's just my toy."


"Even if it's just a toy, can't you find an established man? You're old enough to find a boyfriend and get married." Rena asked annoyed.


"Mother, single is trending. I don't want to be in a complicated relationship, I'd rather play around. If Mom likes established men and marries them, I just need to use them for my needs without being in a relationship." Resti replied casually, the girl then switched and sat sweetly turning on the TV.


"Did you really do it?"


"Yeah,,"


'Yesterday, Adryan Pewira officially announced his engagement to his girlfriend Gisella Elvaretta.' The news of Ryan's engagement with his girlfriend is becoming a trending topic throughout the country.


"Mom, what about this guy?"


Hera glanced at the handsome face of Ryan that emerged from the TV screen, the look on her face getting irritated. "No, I don't agree."


Resti was quite surprised by the mother's answer, he turned his head, "Why? Ryan's? he's my CEO. I can take it if I want."


"Then what if he's your CEO? I don't agree." Hera replied firmly.


"Mother, have I ever obeyed Mom's words?" challenge Resti.


"RESTRICTION!!"


"At least explain to me, why did you reject her? Mom told me to look for an established man, and he's more of an established word."


"No. Once you say no, still not. If I knew you were working under the auspices of his company, I would also balk. Don't forget to spend, I've replaced your food supply with a new one." Hera said, the woman took care of her things and left.


His steps stopped and turned around, "Ah, yes. I forget one thing, visit your father once in a while. Even though he's mengu..."


"I don't have a father!" cut Resti, "Go home carefully. I'll be ready in a minute." The girl got up from the sofa and went inside the room, while Hera could only sigh. It's been a year but his family is still like this. Gilang who has not received the death of Delista, and Resti who was affected.


As for the girl, there was still something strange about her mother. The mother's refusal of her decision, what to do with her father. Her real dad? because this is the first time, the mother refused firmly his words in terms of choosing men.


Drrrrttt drrtt


'Dining with the President and his fiancee at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, 7 Nights'


Resti's smile expanded, "Should I wear my sexiest dress?"


************


Gisella stared at the reflection of her face from the mirror, today the whole country knows her as Gisella, not Delista. Her appearance changed completely including the face part, the plain girl was already invisible on her face. Just changing his chin, forehead and face shape, he already looks like a stranger.


"Why are you constantly looking in the mirror? aren't you PD with your new face?"


The woman looked.


Ryan.


"No. I'm not comfortable. It's not as easy as I thought."


"Sorry,"


"Why?"


"I should've done it before you got out of that accident,"


Gisella smiled, "Should I thank you if you do that?" The girl then put up the earrings, "How did the public respond to my presence?"


"Very shocking." Ryan gave his Tab to Gisella, "Many comments are asking about you. Where you come from, how we met, and ....."


"And what?"


"Did I meet you after forgetting Delista?"


Gisella welcomes Tab Ryan by surprise. "Is there such a comment??"


Ryan nodded, "I didn't expect them to still remember about my scandal with Delista."


"The color of first love is always imprinted." Gisella.


"Huh?"


"Honestly, I used to. You like me, right? I mean as Delista."


Ryan approached, he turned the swivel chair Gisella occupied towards him. The faces of both are now just a little baby.


"Is your brain also in surgery?" whispered Ryan


"So, I'm just guessing. If you want to take Delista's vacation, it's probably just your wits to get closer to her, right? what's more, you helped her and then you made her your fiancee now."


Ryan smirked, "Don't like me, Gisella. If in the end what you say is true, please ignore me and don't return my feelings."


"Why?"


Tok...


The answer Gisella was waiting for had to stop because of the knock on the door. Ryan walked away from his face, and came out to the intercom, Wildan. "Come in,,"


The man brought the tuxedo as Ryan wished. "Everything is ready. You can go straight to Rooftop "


"Well, I'll switch tuxedos."


"What about Gisella?"


"Truely out, he's changing clothes." Ryan replied, the man was silent for a moment. "Hmm, it'd be better if you called Ms. Gisella, wouldn't you?" ask again.


"I'm used to it. He's younger than me. I'm a little awkward with him if I have to wear a formal call." Wildan replied casually. Ryan wanted to protest. However, seeing that the male expression turned sparkling, he followed his gaze


Gisella came out of the dressing room, the girl was ready with a bodycon type dress with an off shoulder model. Looks tight but featuring a sexy accent from the curves of his body was also successful in making Wildan and Ryan gawking.


"When has he been taking care of his body?" wildan whispered


"I don't know either."


"Where do you think you are? Do I look weird? I feel uncomfortable because it's too tight, and my shoulders are open like this, I'm also quite uncomfortable." explained Gisella as she rubbed her neck.


"If you're uncomfortable, why are you wearing it?"


"Victoria gave me some dress models, and I feel like this model is the most beautiful and feminine. I don't want to embarrass you, if you get the wrong costume" for Gisella.


Ryan sighed, he did not expect the girl to be able to think that way to him. He approached Gisella and put on his tuxedo covering the girl's shoulder. "What if I add this? Do you feel better? I could've asked Victoria to find another dress model..."


"It's okay, you know, I don't feel good telling Victoria to keep going." Gisella.


"You sure?"


Gisella nodded.


************


The atmosphere of the night becomes more beautiful accompanied by thousands of stars and the view of the city from above is always pampering the eyes. Hundreds of invitations were present to enjoy the relaxed but luxurious party. Various wines and snacks are served neatly by the hotel waiter.


The noisy bustle of the invitations instantly fell silent as a woman entered the event area. Restier. The girl was wearing a sheath type dress. Dress that displays her perfect curves and accentuates the sexy impression on the chest.


"Uwaaahhh, beautiful." Praise Sherly


"We don't even know, your body's this good" felish added.


"You're on a hard diet? Yoga's? or... What drink?" Ask Viola


Resti smiled, "I'm just doing my best for my body. Has the show started? I don't see the president here.?


"Ahh, I get it. Are you planning to tempt the President?" Ask Sherly prankster.


"Yes. I'll do it,"


Sherly, Felish and Viola were compactly shocked to hear Resti's reply.


"Yeah! How-to? He's an engaged man. And her fiance is even prettier than you." Ask Sherly


"Have you seen it?" Felish asked, Sherly nodded.


"I feel like he's the same age as Viola, or indeed he's ageless. Totally clear, her face was smooth without the slightest flaw."


"I just saw her on TV, and she's beautiful." Added Viola. "Is she plastic surgery? I've never seen a woman that beautiful. Is he really human??" he added.


"I don't care, even a married man can turn his back on his wife. Maybe I still have a chance?" answer Resti confidently.


"Geez, do you want to be the same fate as Delista?" the silly question from Sherly succeeded in making Resti speechless. "He died, probably because the president preferred this woman over her. At that time, he was tired and spent time drinking because his efforts to get the president were not successful. It seems, my guess is right."


"You always make unreasonable assumptions. Do you still intend to be a flight attendant? or are you ready to change your profession as a writer?" Tanya Resti was not happy. Sherly was silent and closed her mouth shut.


"That's them." Felish gave a cue to his friends. Everyone immediately turned their heads, the long-awaited couple present. Ryan and Gisella came down the stairs smiling at each other.


"They're compatible, yes,"


Ryan led Gisella to the stage, occasionally smiling as some cheered the word congratulations to the two. They went on stage together, and were treated to a glass of wine by a waiter. The man approached the microphone.


"test... test... Can you listen to me?" ask Ryan


"Cana!!!" say to the invitees.


"Alright, first of all thank you for fulfilling my invitation. Here I humbly serve those of you who have worked hard to serve the customers who are still loyal to our airline. There are two good news that I want to convey, first..again for the third time we...win the award with the best service Airline category!!" He was excited at the end of his sentence. He stared proudly at the entire flight crew who worked hard for him.


"Yuhhhhh!!! Viva Ryan!! Viva Ryaann!!!" The cheers and boisterous applause instantly sounded lively.


"Hm. This award, I give it to you who have worked hard all this time. Therefore, for this month's salary, I will add bonuses to all my employees without exception!!"


"Yahhhhhh!!!!!"


"May you enjoy it. Then the second news..You may have heard this news, but I still want to officially introduce you in front of all of you," Ryan turned to Gisella and extended his hand. "She.my betrothed. Gisella Alvaretta's. Some of you may be wondering how we met and formed love. But, can you not need to know about it and support me??" Ryan was a little embarrassed.


"Eiiihhh," The invitations simultaneously teased Ryan. But not with Resti. The girl continued to stare straight at the woman beside Ryan.


"Ny.Gisella, can you tell us a little bit about Mr. Ryan as the girlfriend in your eyes?" One of the guests launched a question.


Gisella turned to Ryan for approval. The man nodded.


"Hallo, I'm Gisella Alvaretta. If you ask about Ryan as a girlfriend in my eyes, my answer is,, he's not the romantic type." Gisella's reply made the invitees chuckle,


"He's a workaholic, he's time-consuming and I have to understand about it. So, I decided to go along with her, how she takes care of the company, how to read stocks, how to look at financial charts, that's how we communicate. Giving suggestions and responses, often got us into fights with each other. But, no breaking words came out of him. He kept me like I kept him. She's not the romantic type, but she's pretty good at letting out my anger" Gisella explained to a standing ovation.


"You're a compatible couple!!"


"What about Mr Ryan himself?" The question turned to Ryan. The man was quite shocked but still picked up his microphone.


"Hmm.he was quite sweet in my eyes, although he was stubborn and too curious about what I was doing, I could slowly understand his point. I might be great as a CEO, but to pamper women, my level is still a rookie. I even forgot our anniversary date many times, and made me end up accepting her scolding" Gisella patted the man's shoulder gently,


"My mouth is a form of love from me." she replied


"But.." a voice sounded out loud amidst the invitations. Resti, the owner of the voice. "How did you respond to Delista? Any articles that assume you found a new woman after Delista died? And, the article that says you were dating Delista first, you never gave any clarification on it either. Can you explain? I'm sure, it's not just me who's curious about this, Mr Adryan Officer?"


The relaxed atmosphere turned tense, now Gisella's eyes were fixedly staring at her half-sister's face.


"Delista, she's a good girl. I really liked it at the time." Ryan's confession suddenly made Gisella's view move to look at the man.


"I was planning to date her. But, I couldn't see him because he didn't come home after his business trip with me. We, lost contact at the time, and one more, Gisella is not a replacement for Delista. You may look uneasy at the news of my engagement, perhaps because.... Have you considered Delista as your brother?"


Resti smiled faintly, "I'm just trying to clarify."


"May my answer satisfy your curious desires. I beg you to stop here, don't let this news re-emerge" Ryan asked.


"Then what about Ms. Gisella? What was your response after hearing Mr Ryan's reply?" Resti again asked the question, Sherly nudged the girl's arm asking her to stop, but Resti did not touch her at all.


"Me?? I have no right to judge Ryan's past, that's his right, and that was before me and him were in love. He told me this too, so I'm not surprised anymore. You seem pretty interested in this matter huh," Gisella replied casually.


"It's not just me, it's everyone here." Resti replied.


Ryan approached and whispered, "That's your stepbrother."


"I know, you showed me the picture. How could I forget it."


The event continued with a friendly, Ryan chose to join the group of pilots and ask about their work experience. Meanwhile, Gisella joins the women flight attendants, of course there is Resti among them.


"I'm really jealous of you. You, having everything, your fiancee isn't a random person either." Sherly.


Gisella smiled, "I also have flaws. Maybe, it does look flawless but I'm still a human being."


"If Ryan, he's busy with his job. How did you meet him?" Resti again made the atmosphere tense. The girl seemed not to want to lose, and tried to find out how these two lovebirds could meet. "Maybe, I can learn from your experience."


"Maybe... You have to sacrifice someone first?" gisella said unexpectedly. Everyone was swept away in the horror jokes of the two.


Resti smiled obliquely, "What do you mean? sacrificed?"


"I once read a novel, telling of a woman who was too spiteful to her half-brother. But, because of his malice, the half-brother who was considered an enemy, even met the white equestrian prince." Obviously Gisella, she smiled meaningfully. "A complicated story, huh?"


Resti's jaw hardened, biting his lips and looking at Gisella displeased. The story reminded him of his behavior to Delista a year ago. What does he mean? Why did she mention the story that made her heart fall hard?


Sherly and the others laughed, "Ah, so that's what you mean? You feel it too?"


"Of course not. From that story, I learned. Patience is sure to pay off, life goes on and we also do not know what happened. If we're in trouble now, who knows someday, there's someone who can take all the loneliness, sadness and disappointment you've ever felt in someone you've considered a brother."


"Resti? Hows it? Are you interested?"


"No. Isn't that a sad story? Instead of fighting for self-esteem, his half-brother even resigned in the footing by his other brother. Of course, I chose to be a half-brother who did not choose to lose" he replied.


"Luckily, you're an only child." Felish replied.


Resti did not answer and looked straight at Gisella. He had to find out the truth about this girl, Gisella did not look like Delista. Speech style, elegant, smart, and pretty enough. But, somehow he felt uncomfortable with the girl's gaze.


And Gisella? He who knew the actions of his half-brother, could only resist being annoyed by the way the girl replied. Resti's tone showed absolutely no guilt. Did he, in the past, seem too innocent and too kind? until he fought Resti he was unable.


**************


Hera who was preparing dinner was satisfied with the results of her cooking. "Darling!! Come down, the food is ready!"


There's no answer.


"Darling! Quickly down!!"


Still no answer. Hera took off her apron and rushed up to her husband.


"I..!" His eyes widened in shock when he saw the husband was lying unconscious in his study. "Yes god! It's gone!!!" the woman approached her husband and tried to resuscitate him. "Say, you okay? Awake darling!!"


His hand reached into his pocket, picked up the phone and quickly pressed the emergency button.


"Hallo, please send an ambulance. My husband fainted!!"


**************


Ryan and Gisella were already sitting in the car heading home.


"How's your chat?" Ask Ryan


Gisella was silent for a while, "I just don't like Resti."


"Why don't you like yourself?"


"Of course, from the way he talks. Apparently, Delista easily agreed to all of Resti's requests. Was I too weak?"


"Sorry interjected. Weak words don't seem to suit you, Gisella. It's just that you chose not to prolong the problem and chose to make peace." Wildan.


"Maybe. I also just chose not to make trouble with him, it just made him suspicious."


"She's the kind of girl that doesn't want to lose and wants to win by herself" Ryan said.


"What about his family? Did you get anything, Wildan?" Gisella asked the man.


"What'sthis? Since when did you tell him to?" Ask Ryan. Gisella rolled her eyes puffed.


"Aren't you the one who said it yourself, that whatever you have is mine too? You have Wildan, so Wildan is mine, right?" ask Gisella back


"But not with Wildan. What did you call it? of yours? god, if why don't you say it in front of everyone?" ask Ryan in annoyance.


Wildan glanced at the two from the rearview mirror, whereas Gisella could only grin in surprise.


"What's wrong with you? You jealous?" ask Gisella.


"Yes god. All right, it's up to you!" he said while turning his face outside.


Wildan just smiled. This was the first time he had seen the other side of Ryan. "His family company is in crisis. The owner of the company is now rushed to the ER,"


"What?"


Ryan immediately turned to Gisella, the girl showing a look of uneasy face. "Why was he taken to the ER? How do you know?"


"My men who I told to watch over them told me."


"Since when?" He looked at Gisella for an explanation.


"Not so long ago, I started to become interested in my foster family. No, I was just trying to figure out if I really wasn't wanted by the family, or if Resti was the one who planned all this."


Ryan sighed, "If you find the same answer? What are you doing?"


"I'm sure I'm not as sad as you told me before."


"alright. Wildan, let's go to the hospital!"


"All right!!"


"What do you want?" Gisella panicked.


"Wouldn't it be nice if you saw it in person? I know you've been holding him for a long time." Ryan was calm. Gisella smiled faintly,


"Thank you"


***************


Ddrrrrrt drrrttt


Resti's phone vibrates. A phone call from the mother appeared on the screen. The woman who owns the phone does not pay attention to the state of her phone and chooses to make out with her junior. The dinner was over, but the two chose to spend the night in one of the five-star hotel's suite rooms.


Again the vibrations sounded. A message came in. Resti finally chose to end his kiss with Trias, although the man was still not willing to let go and showered the kiss on the neck area of the girl.


'Daddy's in the hospital, son. He had a mild stroke. Come, mother is waiting for you.'


"Your father's in the hospital?" Trias stopped his kiss while reading the message. "How's this? You're going? I've booked this room, for both of us." Ask with a little disappointment.


Resti simply stared at the screen of his phone, then stuffed it back into his coat pocket. He cupped Trias's face and smiled, "Of course I choose to have fun."


Trias smiled triumphantly, both of them were again swept away in passion ****. Trias took off Resti's coat and threw it away, then carried the girl to the bed. Without Resti knowing, the mother contacted him again.


****************


Rena was sitting listlessly in front of the ER room, watching her silent phone with no sign of Resti going to contact her. The message is also read only. The woman called her son again, again only the voice of the operator was heard.


He looked at the ICU door blankly, "I don't want to be widowed or go back to being poor anymore." she explained.


Unbeknownst to him, Gisella, Ryan and Wildan saw the woman from a distance.


"Who's the doctor who handled Gilang?"


"Doctor Astrid. Doctor Erlangga's lover." Answer Wildan completely.


"Good, can you ask him for a statement?" Ask Ryan.


"I'll work on it."


After Wildan left, Ryan glanced back at Gisella. The woman only gave a blank look and did not comment much.


"You okay, Gisella?"


"Can I talk to him?" Gisella asked, Ryan followed the girl's gaze.


"You want to talk to that woman? You sure?"


Gisella turned to Ryan, "Please wait here. I won't be long." He leaves Ryan and approaches the woman described as Resti's biological mother. Her stepmother.


"Hello, aren't you Resti's mother?" carefully Gisella greeted Hera. The woman looked up and stood up, then wiped her tears.


"You....who? Yes, I'm Resti's mother."


"Truely, I think people are wrong. I happened to pass by and stop by to question your situation. Oh, aye. I haven't introduced myself, I'm Gisella Resti's friend."


"really?" Hera looked at Gisella's appearance from top to bottom, "Your appearance is amazing, you are definitely not an ordinary person. Is it possible.. Are you Resti's superior?"


"Can be. Why are you sitting here? Is anyone sick?"


Hera smiled faintly, "My husband, Resti's father fainted and the doctor immediately put him in the ICU room, from the examination results, he had a mild stroke. His other condition also had an effect."


Gisella fell silent, then looked at the ICU door. "Then, where's Resti?"


"I've contacted him, but he's not answering me. I see, maybe he's already hurt his own father." Hera's answer raises a big question mark for Gisella.


"Hmm.. What do you mean?"


"It's okay. Not a big deal." Said Hera with a smile.


*************


Gisella and Ryan have left the hospital, Wildan said that the condition of the father is not good. This is due to work pressure, and a lack of a healthy lifestyle. This was quite disturbing, especially when his adoptive mother said that her father and Resti's relationship was not good.


"Wildan, can you find out why my foster father and Resti's relationship is not good?" Ask Gisella.


"That happened a year ago. Since the body known as you was found. Your stepfather kicked Resti out of the house. It seems your father feels guilty for you. I don't know what happened back then, which obviously your father did the same thing that Resti did to you" Ryan replied.


"What Resti said was the rule of the house, maybe Restilah told your father and stepmother not to call you when you had an accident." Continue Ryan.


Gisella danced in deep breaths, feeling deprived of oxygen whenever she heard stories about herself and her past.


"You're okay?"


"I'm fine."


*************


Hera came home in a hurry, entered her room and searched her closet, mattress and dresser. When she found out what she was not looking for, the woman moved to the husband's office. Hera opened every drawer, hoping to find what she was looking for. Until finally...


Her face was radiantly finding a stamped brown envelope. He opened it and checked. Land letters and house letters.


"I can't be poor anymore. Can't!!"
