Now! I FOUND YOU

Now! I FOUND YOU
Ciara Arrival


A few days later.


Vicky took off his jacket and attached it with a sullen pouch to the sofa, a cell phone wedged between his shoulders and ears, and a,


"So you're not going home before the end of the month???" Vicky frowned, he was conversing with his older brother Garviil who is currently on his honeymoon with his wife in France, leaving Vicky alone with an office job that he dislikes.Garviil's voice across there seemed calm and deep, giving typical instructions, making Vicky smile wryly, even in his honeymoon period,  his twin brother remains very good at his job.


After just nodding and responding soberly, Vicky said goodbye to her brother, "I want to do this because I know you're happy there, as soon as you go home I'll take my day off and travel abroad." he muttered threateningly.


Garviil chuckled there in response, making Vicky smile. Her sister laughed easily after her wedding. "Bye. Titip My regards to Geffie." Geffie is his brother-in-law now, Garviil's dearest wife.


After that Vicky put down her phone and slammed her body onto the sofa, her fingers casually grabbed the remote control and turned on the big television in her living room. He let out a long sigh, during Garviil's honeymoon, it was Vicky who had to take over the control of the company, in fact this was not his field, he was a famous artist and painter who could live a good life selling his paintings. But for the sake of his brother, Vicky was willing to help him, after all Garviil had taught him so well and was always ready to help just in case there was covering work that he did not understand.


Although twin brothers, Vicky and Garviil are very different. Garviil is of course very calm, elegant and mature with its appearance is always neat, mostly in a work suit or neatly ironed shirt. While Vicky was really 180 degrees in contrast, he liked to wear jeans and t-shirts that were not ironed, his hair was even left long until it passed his collar, he said,  wearing a neat suit - as he had to do when replacing Garviil - was very torturous, let alone wearing a tie was very disturbing, as if the tie was about to strangle his neck.


Tonight he was bored, and fortunately tomorrow was Saturday which meant a holiday for him where he could take a break from the boredom of formal looks and business affairs that stifled his mind.


His mind suddenly drifted to his twin brother and his wife Geffie. They are an amazing couple who can eventually end up happy, Vicky will be able to find happiness like them after the departure of Tiffany. Or will he be like this forever??? Continue to be Vicky who relaxes and has no one important in his life??? And can't run from Tiffany's shadow.


Those thoughts made him tired, and then his eyes closed. Take him to dreamland.

Next day.


It's insanity.


Ciara put on her sunglasses on that scorching afternoon, looking in contrast to her white and pale skin.  He pulled his small suitcase through the airport lobby towards the pick-up point. His clothes were efficient but still elegant, black trousers and fashionable blazers that fit his body, making him seem authoritative. Yes, Ciara must always appear authoritative related to her work.


He must have gone mad to accept Bianca's request to try to destroy the evil twins. But Bianca was so full of tears and begged him, threatening to die if Ciara would not help her... So Ciara can what????


And here he was, in a country he had been to more than five years ago. Yes, as much as possible Ciara avoids visiting this country, because this country harbors a sad experience that he does not want to remember anymore. But now for Bianca's sake, Ciara was willing to come back here even though those memories instantly scratched her, scraping back her wounds that had been almost sealed shut.


Ciara looked around, looking for a familiar face. Then his eyes recognized the figure he had seen only through the photo, and drew closer to him, he said,


"Thomas???" Ciara greeted with her soft and authoritative voice.


The man he called turned his head to hear his call and immediately bowed his body respectfully. "Md. Ciara. Welcome to Boston. Come, we have prepared a car for you."


Ciara just nodded her head, and then followed Thomas to the car. As soon as the car was run, Ciara advanced her body, asking Thomas who was sitting next to the driver.


"Is the team I first sent ready for tomorrow's meeting???" Ask Ciara. The day before yesterday he had sent some of his staff to accompany him to meetings with the company that is here, the company owned by the twins Victor/Garviil and Vicky.


"We've informed everyone that you've come, your whole team is ready tomorrow for the important meeting with the company.". They have informed everyone that Ciara has arrived, all of Ciara's team is ready tomorrow for an important meeting with the company.


"Good job." Ciara nodded her head in satisfaction and leaned her body back into the comfortable car seat. His real job is not a priority for him. Yes, at a very young age, Ciara managed to replace her father who was forced to resign as CEO because of his weakened health condition. Their family company engaged in the manufacturing sector has indeed grown rapidly and become a leader in its ranks, and Ciara as the sole daughter of the owner of the company, participated in its success. He is very good at doing business, inherits his father's abilities, and everyone admits to even being disinclined to him. This matter was actually his representative to his men, but now, for the sake of Bianca, Ciara came alone to this country and used the business of work as her camouflage.


Later, once at the hotel, Ciara will arrange a strategy to be able to carry out his plans for the twins, Garviil and Vicky. He let out a long sigh imagining the difficulties he would face in the future. But he told Bianca he would only try, if he felt inadequate, Ciara would resign from this plan immediately.

Her night.


"You haven't been here in a few days, Vicky." Andro blinked one eye at Vicky who was just sitting in a high bar stool. "Why are you staying at home instead, isn't Garviil going to take Geffie there???" Ask Andro.


Vicky chuckled, he came wearing a casual dress, his disheveled half-length hair, a rough chin for not having been shaved and an entire appearance that reflected his freedom. Yes, Vicky is not Vicky's replacement for the honeymoon director, Vicky who is now the artist who is enjoying life.


"Garviil will go to Washinton dc later after from Jakarta, Geffie will start his studies, later he will return here himself after dropping off Geffie. Mama will still be here in the next few days." Vicky muttered in a lazy tone of voice, "Give me a pure double scoth with ice."


Andro smiled broadly, "I'm interested in enjoying tonight, eh???" the man immediately prepared Vicky's order and placed it on the bar table where Vicky was sitting.


Vicky finished his drink in a few gulps, slightly frowning due to the burning heat in his throat.


His eyes circled around the bar, looking at the quite crowded cafe. Until then he was glued to the figure that had just entered.


That woman doesn't fit in here.


A cynical smile spread on Vicky's lips, Which woman came to the bar late at night dressed like a male suit? not to mention his finely combed hair back and curled stiffly over his nape like a nerd library keeper like he saw in the movies, Vicky would even bet that up close, there will be no messy hair in the hair.


But behind her nerd-like appearance, Vicky's sharp eyes can find her natural beauty, her lips are pink and her skin is pale, looks fragile, and she has a deep, pale complexion, contrasted with his black clothes. Vicky got up from the chair and tried to approach the woman he did not know her name. Vicky has to start moving on from Tiffany, he can't keep going like this. Apalai saw the happiness of his brother made him also want to immediately find a woman for him to marry.


"Are you lost here???" Vicky put on his most dazzling smile, and without excuse sat in front of the beautiful woman with that mismatched appearance, "Need help???"


The pretty girl's eyes looked alert, especially considering Vicky's truly delinquent appearance, coupled with her slightly long hair touching the collar and her relaxed appearance. And Ciara knew that this man was Vicky, Bianca had already shown him her picture. Ciara was surprised when she saw the photo because she felt she had met the man before, and Ciara immediately remembered that the man named Vicky was the same man who had once given him a painting while on the beach.


"No. I just wanted to spend my night uninterrupted." the woman took her eyes off as if she wanted to act out that Vicky didn't exist.


But of course Vicky did not give up easily because of that simple refusal. The rejection made him even more excited.


"Maybe I can help and accompany you, you know this kind of place is dangerous for a woman to sit alone."


"I can take care of myself." The woman still did not look Vicky in the eye, she ignored him, as if Vicky did not exist.


Ahah..... The overwhelming adrenaline and zeal she felt for feeling challenged by a woman's rejection. For a long time no woman has rejected her, Vicky does have her own charms even though she is untidy and dressed up as a young executive, his casual appearance and seductive attitude are usually his own attraction for all women.


"My name is Vicky." shamelessly Vicky reached out her hand, and then pulled it back with a mischievous smile as the woman before him only glanced slightly towards her hand angrily, "We met on the beach before, right??? By Anyer. You remember no, I gave you a painting.???"


"Anyer??? Oh yeah, you're that guy, who doesn't have manners, painting me without my permission."


Vicky smiled. "Sorry, I'm a painter, and I used to paint whatever was in front of me, one of you. What are you doing alone in a place like this, beautiful??? Oops..."


That 'beautiful' name call made the woman's eyes smolder, and she looked amazingly beautiful. Vicky. Wow, just this time he was so deeply interested in a woman just by looking at her. Vicky decided to go after this girl. Lately he actually often looked at the painting he made, which is this woman's painting. Vicky hoped to see each other again but he didn't know who this woman was. And just as God was listening to his desire to meet this woman.


"What's your name??? can I just call you 'beautiful'???" Ask Vicky again.


The woman looked unusually irritated with Vicky's non-yielding attitude, she then stood up and threw a look of disdain, then said loudly,


"It's none of your business, I just want to be alone here but you bother me. Excuse me!!!"


And then without Vicky chasing, she nimbly turned and half ran out of the cafe door, disappearing somewhere.


All Vicky wanted to chase, the urge was so strong that he almost got out of his chair. But the anger of the woman was almost heard all over the room and now the whole cafe looked at her curiously.


Vicky let out a long sigh, trying to be indifferent. Well maybe he is not a match with a fierce but beautiful woman. With a big smile, Vicky stepped back into the bar to order a drink.


Andro had certainly seen the incident since then, and he could not help but laugh at Vicky's failure,


"First failure???" Andro dried up, half-mocking in a joke. "Maybe you're gonna have to hone your wooing skills, Vicky. Slow down, he seems to be scared of you."


"Maybe too long wearing a suit and tie has worn off my charm." Vicky laughed, "There's always a first failure for everyone anyway." he glanced at Andro with an amused look, "Make me another drink, I need to forget my heartbreak." she was joined by Andro's laughter.


***


Ciara leaned her body against the storefront right on the sidewalk that bordered the pedestrian flow with an elegant boutique. He gasped for half a run, for fear of Vicky chasing him.


From Bianca's story about the twins, Vicky and Garviil are the owners of the cafe and they often live there, Ciara just wants to look closely and assess how the potential victims are.


It is not suspected that Vicky will be so aggressive and find it interesting, even though he has dressed up as unattractive as possible. Ciara let out a long breath. His heart was racing, and this was not all because of Vicky, but rather his fear of men.


This is crazy and stupid. How could she have done what Bianca asked, if she was actually harboring a deep fear of men???


Bianca of course does not know the trauma she is feeling, she only knows that Ciara has bad memories with her ex-boyfriend, who used to live in this country while in college. Ciara was almost raped, in the house of her own lover who she trusted so much. At that time they were both celebrating their graduation and Devan invited Ciara to his house which happened to be quiet, Ciara was so trusting and loving her lover, not expecting that all Devan wanted at that time was his body. Fortunately Ciara managed to escape, by pouring the hot coffee on the table to Devan, regardless of Devan who complained of pain when he ran away from the cursed house.


After that event, Ciara immediately packed her things and went home to her apartment changed her mobile number and removed her tracks from Devan by moving apartments and then returned to Singapore because her parents no longer live there in Indonesia. It was fortunate that he had finished his college days and did not need to return to this country anymore and it seemed that Devan also decided not to pursue him, probably because he was afraid that Ciara would report it to the police. No one ever knew about the incident, nor did his parents and even Bianca. Everyone thought Ciara hated the country because she was heartbroken by breaking up with her lover. From then on, Ciara had never heard the news about Devan, nor was she willing to find out about the whereabouts of the jerk man.


But despite the years that passed, the trauma never left him. Ciara remembered how much she refused and pleaded, but Devan seemed to turn into an unknown figure, ruthless and forced, not caring about Ciara's fears. Men can turn into savage and scary. Ciara had already managed to escape once from the male savage, and she did not want to fall a second time into the same hole. That's what makes Ciara afraid of men, hateful and disgusted at every approach men take to her....


If this was the case, how could he possibly succeed in doing what Bianca had asked him??? he was not even able to deal with Vicky's aggressive approach


And damn, he knows for sure that he has to meet Vicky tomorrow. The plan had already been executed, and Ciara could not retreat anymore.
