Dark History
21. Tiaras

When she woke up, Dika saw Santi smiling on her bed. Staring at him and stroking Dika's hair with affection. Dika jerked for a moment and woke up.

" What are you doing?" They forgot what they were doing last night.

Santi smiled and approached Dika. But Dika avoided, Santi finally said.

" Our plane I'm on until tomorrow sir, so tonight my father is back." smile happy.

" Are you crazy? Our work in Jakarta is a lot, and you want to keep me here again? Hurry up and book a ticket for today, if you don't I may fire. I remind you, do not overstep the limit if you do not want to regret it." said Dika firmly.

They finally returned to Jakarta that day, after a heated debate between Dika and Santi. On the bed, of course. Santi and Dika are really crazy and lost their minds. Forgetting the status of Dika who has married and status as his boss.

That afternoon Tiara waited for Asad in the canteen. They made a promise to have lunch together. Twenty minutes did not yet see the nose. Tiara snorted in annoyance, impatiently.

"Basic, look out for Asad. Say don't be late, uh. instead yourself are late. Just watch out, otherwise I'm not the head, don't call me Tiara!" tiara's nagging nagging.

There's a notification on Tiara's phone, Adrian. With a spirit Tiara opened the message

🏝 Adrian : What more dear?

🏝 Tiara : Waiting for Asad, want to have lunch with him.

Long time no answer.

Annoyed by Tiara, everyone today irritated her. Adrian too, the message was not answered either.

" It's the guy on again why the hell, why piss me all off. Adrian too, why not reply again chat me, before you!" tiara finally thought about all the events today.

Suddenly there was a notification from Asad

🏝 Asad: Sorry for the lunch at the cancel, I forgot if there is an appointment with the lecturer this afternoon, next time ok?

Tiara had already broken the mood because of these two people, all irritating. Mama also, still early morning Tiara had told him to go to Dika's house to pick up Bintang, while the car was still held the same Dika, with the reason of worry about being used to the night club again.

Tiara was forced to go to Dika's house by taxi. Waiting for a taxi in hot weather made Tiara very upset.

Why is nothing going well today? After getting a Taxi Tiara immediately gave his sister's home address. After arriving, Tiara was confused by the atmosphere of her brother's quiet and dark house.

"Where is everyone? Why is it so dark and quiet?" tiara asked somewhat fearfully and anxiously. Not usually Dika's sister house deserted rich gini, bathin Tiara.

Until finally, suddenly there was a sound from the inside, with the opening of the front door. The voice of Risma and her mother.

" Happy birthday, we say. Happy and happy!" they simultaneously approached Tiara who was still in shock with the surprise party.

It was only fitting that everyone from the morning upset Tiara, so that was their plan. Upon seeing Asad and Adrian, Tiara immediately approached the two of them.

" You guys conspired with them to piss me off all day?" Asad approaches Tiara and wishes Tiara a happy birthday and presents Tiara with a gift.

When Adrian approached, Tiara was powerless not to cry, the article Adrian far from London came for him. Three years of not seeing each other made longing accumulate in the hearts of both. Tiara hugged Adrian, her lover.

At High School, Tiara did have a crush on Asad, but after hanging out with the boy, it turns out that Adrian loves him more. Tiara decides to accept Adrian's love with all her heart.

Asad tried to forget Sania, indeed at that time he made a mistake by leaving Sania alone. But Asad tried to find a way, to be able to apologize to Sania.

Sania disappeared somewhere. The family and Risma do not want to give information about Sania's whereabouts. It was Sania's message and desire. Want to forget and start a new life away from Jakarta.

" Thank you, for the gift, your presence is the most beautiful gift to me." Tiara smiled happily

Tiara's birthday party is simple, with the presence of family and close friends. After that share in the orphanage under the auspices of the Foundation chaired by Risma.

Tiara is very happy with her birthday party this time, with Adrian by her side. All day they travel around Jakarta and spend time together.

" Tiara, sit. There's something I have to tell you." Pinta Adrian with a serious face. Tiara, who saw the unpleasant appearance of Adrian's serious facial features, immediately approached Adrian.

" What's up? Is there a problem?" ask Tiara

" Papah asked me to marry you, papah said, if you're not willing___" Adrian hangs his words.

"Say! Tiara is ready to hear whatever you want to say." said Tiara calmly.

" Papah said, if you are not willing to marry, I am required to marry the woman of their choice in London," she said.

There was a feeling of sadness in Tiara's heart, when she heard that Adrian had to marry another woman if he could not marry Adrian as soon as possible.

Tiara was confused. Why should I get a situation like this? His lecture is soon finished, only the preparation of the thesis and trial.

If he's married to Adrian now, that means he has to move with Adrian to London then what about his college? Tiara was just confused.

Adrian holds Tiara's hand, trying to convince her lover that he also does not want to force Tiara to get married as soon as possible, but it is her family that forces them to get married quickly

Adrian's father's health continues to decline makes Adrian unable to refuse the desire papa. Moreover, he was their only child.

" Papah wants to see you marry and hold papah's grandchildren, before Allah calls papah." pinta Papah Adrian in malm he will return to Indonesia.

" What the hell is it? Everything's gonna be fine. Papah will be healthy again. All the best doctors in our hospital will do everything. Ensuring healthy papah back." replied Adrian steady.

" The age of man is God's secret!"

Adrian's daydream stopped as Tiara called his name. Adrian smiled and gently stroked Tiara's hair, then kissed Tiara's head crest in love.

" Trust me, my love is for you!" adrian said softly in Tiara's ear.

" Yes, Tiara knows." Tiara replies to Adrian's embrace and as Adrian is about to kiss his lips once more, Tiara gently rejects him so Adrian doesn't get angry.

" Let's go see your mama and Dika's sister, let's talk about our marriage to them." Tiara nodded and followed Adrian to her house.

Mamah who was busy working in the kitchen felt very happy when she saw who had come with Tiara.

" Loved Adrian, when to come home from London? Auntie misses you." Mama Susan hugged Adrian warmly.

Adrian kisses Susan's mama's hand and invites them to talk in the front room only.

" Aunty, I'm here to propose to Aunt's daughter, of course this is just informality, a formal application will be held by my extended family later," explained Adrian politely.

" Are you ready to get married? After all, you and Tiara have not finished college. Take it on in a minute!" mama Susan replied somewhat objected to Adrian's request to get married as soon as possible.

" Kid Adrian the wedding was not a boy's toy. Remember, your college has not graduated, you are just afraid that marriage will interfere with your concentration in learning," said mamah Susan again.

" Papah is very sick in London Auntie. His last wish was to see me marry and play with my son" Adrian explained.

" If the problem is, another story is Nak Adrian. You leave it to Tiara!!" finally, Susan said nothing else. Smua is up to Tiara, because she's the one going through it all.
