This morning the sun was not very visible, just a speck of light that unfolds behind the clouds. The air is still carried by its normal temperature. But this morning Mahavir already looks neat with a light brown shirt combined with black material pants.
Today he will take his beloved sister-in-law to the university in Oxford to pick up a uniform ceremony and take care of other necessities before entering the dormitory tomorrow. Actually Mahavir could have asked Stuart to return to take care of it, but Bryan refused and no longer wanted special treatment. Especially after Bryan knew the background of Stuart first, making it even more uncomfortable troublesome Scottish man.
Mahavir re-patched his appearance in the mirror, but the tail of his eyes occasionally glanced at the beautiful figure that was still curled under the blanket. Both of her lips curved into a smile and then stepped over to the bed and sat on her side.
"Darling...." Call her softly. "I'm leaving first yeah...." Then she kissed Rachel's cheeks and forehead.
Rachel squirmed and opened her eyes slowly. "Eh, Vir...." He said while observing the neat appearance of her husband. "Would you like to walk?" Continue while lifting his body to sit and lean on the headboard of the bed.
"Yes baby..." Swipe Rachel's cheek and kiss her again. "Siang Stuart will take you and Risya to the airport. I'll try to get home in time, we'll meet there, yeah." He then stood up and grabbed a dark brown wool Longcoat from the closet walk in closet.
Rachel got up, helped Mahavir put on his Longcoat and went to the bathroom and cleaned himself.
While in the other room, Bryan who sat on the edge of the bed seemed to observe the innocent face of Risya who was still asleep. His fingers moved gently stroking the girl's cheek.
"Riss...." Call her, trying to wake the girl up for a goodbye. But Risya just frowned for a moment but fell asleep again. The influence of alcohol last night made his eyes still heavy to open.
Bryan let out a long sigh, then gave his smile. "Bye bye... I hope we can meet again next time..." His whisper then landed his lips on Risya's forehead gently. Then he walked out and closed the door slowly.
"It's over?" Mahavir asked, startling Bryan who had just come out of Risya's room. Bryan nodded then grabbed the dark grey trench coat that was draped on the back of the sofa. Then the two went downstairs for breakfast. After a short breakfast, the two immediately left by driving a sports car owned by Mahavir.

During the day Rachel helps Risya pack up and get ready. Not to forget also Rachel gave Risya the dress she had promised.
"Ris, this is for you. Memories of Rachel's sister and Vir's sister." Rachel said while handing over the paperbag with the label Rachel_Langdon.
Risya received it with a sumringah and directly took out the contents. A beautiful knee-length dress in broken white made from lace on the chest and heavy silk material on the skirt, with a soft drapery accent. "Well, that's pretty, brother...." Praise her while putting the dress on her body. "Risya try now, brother."
"Please be beautiful." His words then helped Risya wear the elegant dress.
"This is the mini version of the wedding dress." Risya spoke while circling until her lower skirt expanded.
"You likey?"
"Banget kak, Risya will wear it on Risya's birthday later. Thanks Rachel." Jump hugging and kissing Rachel's right and left cheeks.
"Oh yes Ris, last night you asked for a treasure brother Vir, a handkerchief that Rachel did not hear wrong. What handkerchief?"
Risya raised both eyebrows. "Royal treasure? When did Risya say that, sister?"
"You hangover a little night, so a little bit of a fuss." Rachel said while holding back her smile, afraid that Risya was ashamed of her behavior.
"What the hell sis?" He blinked his eyes trying to remember. While his hand trying to open the zipper behind his dress.
"Don't remember, you're just asleep." He said while helping Risya open the dress and re-wearing the previous clothes. "Then the handkerchief you mean what is Ris?"
"Oh that..it loh kak handkerchief princess motif that is in the gold iron box in the room Vir brother. Bry said it used to belong to Rachel's sister. But Bry said, Rachel's sister doesn't boooOO...UUUuupppsss's." Risya's reflexes clenched her lips together when she realized she was already flabbergasted.
Princess' handkerchief? Used to be mine??
Rachel tried to remember, but the events of 15 years ago that had been so long had not made her remember anything. Several pieces of his memory were also lost after undergoing therapy and trauma healing after the incident that hit him first.
Rachel raised both eyebrows asking for Risya's explanation. He still did not understand what the girl said. "Sister Rachel doesn't bo...what's Ris?" Ask.
"Ah, no brother. Mm mm.. That's... That's..." Scratching his head without itching while his brain looks for an excuse.
"Sister Rachel can't know yah?" Ask probing. "That it belongs to Rachel's sister, why shouldn't Rachel know anyway?" His fishing rod.
"Mmmmmm-mom.. Mm mm.. Brother Bry said it was a surprise for Rachel's sister later." Lied while smiling awkwardly.
"Oh, yeah?" Rachel said with a smile. "Risya didn't lie, did she?"
"Rissya... Sally....." Risya bit her lower lip, she doesn't usually lie, but doesn't know what else to say.
"Riss...."
Geck... Geck... Geck...
The sound of knocking on the door of the room shocked Risya as well as making him breathe a sigh of relief. The door leaf opened and Inah appeared behind it.
"Sorry Young lady, Mr. Stuart has come and is waiting in the study." Say Bik Inah then help Risya carry her suitcase and shopping items with Bryan the other day.
At exactly two o'clock in the afternoon, the black sedan driven by Stuart left the private park of the penthouse building. After an hour's journey, they finally arrived at Heathrow Airport.
Rachel embraces Risya walking in the airport Corridor, while Stuart walks behind while pulling Risya's suitcase in his right hand and carrying a Travelbag in his left hand containing Risya's groceries.
In front of the departure entrance had gathered Risya's friends and two guidance teachers.
"It looks like Brother Vir and Bryan are late here." Rachel looked at the watch on her left hand.
"What's wrong, brother." Risya said as she spread her gaze around and then looked back at Rachel. Smile and embrace her. "Thank you, Rachel. Risya is happy to know Rachel's sister, Risya is happy to stay at sister's house. Forgive Risya well brother, if Risya there is something wrong during the stay at sister's house. Whether intentionally or unintentionally Risya did. Greetings to Vir and Bry. Say Thank you Risya for them." He sniffled a little in Rachel's arms.
"Yes beautiful, Rachel's sister is also happy with Risya's arrival. Risya makes the house so crowded. If later Risya vacation, come again well.later let brother Rachel who bought the ticket."
Risya nodded and raised her head to look at Rachel's face. "Thank you, Rachel." He said sincerely, then let go of his embrace and took his things from Stuart's hands.
Risya stepped over while waving her hands at Rachel then ran small towards the entrance where her comrades were waiting. Everyone waved at Rachel then entered and disappeared behind the crowd.
As Rachel and Stuart turned around to get away from the place, Bryan appeared from a distance while running.
"Where is his rage, brother?" He asked with a breath of air when he was in front of Rachel.
"Bust in. You're late."
Bryan breathed a rough sigh. His face looks disappointed. He also squatted down to normalize his breathing.
"Where's spir?" Rachel asked, looking around.
"I live in a parking lot. Rachel's sister goes first with Vir's sister. Let me go home with Mr. Stuart."
"Wait for my breath to be normal first, I'm still tired of running from the parking lot."
"Yes already. I'm first yeah." Patting Bryan's still crouching shoulders, he turned towards Stuart. "Mrs. Stuart went home with Bryan yeah."
"Good Mrs. Alisters." He said politely. Afterwards he walked to the drink machine and bought a bottle of water for Bryan.
"Young master Bryan's drinking first."
Bryan got up and received a bottle of water from Stuart. While gulping down the drink, the clattering of running footsteps and the loud voice calling out to him made him choke. "Uhukkkp.. Uhukkk."
"SISTER..." Risya shouted while running towards Bryan and Stuart.
"Is there forgetfulness, miss?" Stuart asked as soon as Risya was in front of him.
"That's...Risya's favorite shoes seemed to be left behind one to his right. Risya saw that when the examination entrance was only one." He said while panting.
Bryan rubbed the spilled drink on his chin, then smiled as he ruffled Risya's hair. "Basic sloppy. Check it out, it might be tucked away among other things." Her speech.
"Oh yeah yeah, too. Okey brother, Risya enter first. I'm checking in."
"Riss..." Bryan immediately pulled Risya's hand. "Can you hug?" Ask.
Risya smiled then immediately hugged Bryan. "Thank you Bry for a week already take Risya for a walk. Forgive Risya if there's something wrong with Bry's brother yah."
"Yes Ris...! Sorry if I was wrong. The holidays are coming again."
"Mmmm... No promise, Risya can't get on the plane by himself."
"Then give me the news often."
"Okey brother." He said and let go of his embrace.
"Take Care by Ris..." His words rubbed the head of Risya.
"Thanks, Bry." Smiled sweetly then slightly bowed in front of Stuart. "Let's Mr. Stuart." He said then walked backwards while waving his hand then turned around and ran back towards the entrance.
While looking at Risya's distant back, his phone rang. Bryan checked his phone and saw the name 'My Sweetheart' on his screen.
For a moment Bryan looked at the screen of his phone and Risya's back in turn. Bryan closed his eyes and turned around. He also rubbed the green symbol on his phone screen while stepping towards the parking lot followed by Stuart beside him.
"Hello ian..." It's at the end of there. "Where was that on campus?"
"Everything is smooth thanks to Brother Vir. What else?" He asked while glancing at the clock on his phone. "The evening is over?" Further.
"It's over, it's home. Oh, you're in the dorm tomorrow, right?"
"Yes, but the lecture is active next week."
"Mmmmmm-mom... Ian...."
"Well, why Aya?"
"That's... About our relationship. My mom and dad knew. Your mommy told them. And they want us engaged."
Both of Bryan's eyes instantly widened. He swallowed his hard spit.
"Dian....?"
"Ah, why Aya?"
"Well, I want to ask you your opinion."
"What do you want?"
"Mmmm... Ian... Actually I...." He remained silent for a while, and then he heard the sound of breathing.
"Nothing, to be honest...."
"Actually... I'm still not sure about our relationship, we're new. And that too over long distances. If you're engaged or married, like...." Fall silent again.
"I understand. Oh yes, maybe in the future if I have focused on learning, I will rarely call."
"What's wrong. But you're not angry?"
"No, I'm not angry. I'll call mommy and explain."
"Thank You Ian...Take care there yah.salam same Rachel."
"Yes, I'll tell you later. Thanks dear..." Bryan took a deep breath and put his phone back in his coat pocket.
Stuart who was walking beside her smiled then patted her on the shoulder. "Being between those two hearts was stifling. Don't let you regret it later." He opened the car door for Bryan.
"Ah I'm just ahead with Mr. Stuart." Opening the front door on the right side and entering sat there stunned at Stuart's words. Keep quiet until you get to Penthouse.
Bryan continued to step into the Penthouse and subconsciously his legs instead led him to the room previously occupied by Risya. He smiled and sat down on the bed. But he immediately moved because he felt occupied something. Bryan pulled out the blanket and found Risya's shoes in the car. Sneakers are white with a minnie mouse motif on the outside.
God, it turns out my Cinderella forgot her one shoe....
Bryan laughed and then threw his body back, lying on the mattress while continuing to observe the sneakers he was holding. The scent of Risya's body still imprinted on the pillows and blankets that the girl used to use burst into her sense of smell. Bryan pulled the pillow and covered his face with it while laughing at himself who already missed the little girl.

The next day, Mahavir drove Bryan back to Oxford. This time Bryan has brought a suitcase containing clothes, books and other necessities for the next few months. Because in winter later in December he will be off for a few weeks and return to the mansion. So the items that are carried are not too much.
This time Rachel did not take a ride because suddenly Merry contacted him and said that the party from Production House who will be sponsored by him advance the schedule two months ahead of the original plan.
Rachel is back behind her desk. Focused on making several designs according to the request of his clients. Even when Mahavir returned from Oxford, Rachel was still immersed in a pile of designs and materials.
