"I like your eyes, you look away when you pretend not to care
I like the dimples on the corners of the smile that you wear
I like you more, the world may know but don't be scared
'Cause I'm falling deeper, baby, be prepared...." Tiffany sings a song that reminds her a bit of Gio and also Bryan, a song she likes.
Tiffany glanced at the clock on the wall in her room which now showed 9.19 pm, which meant that Dian was already on the street to pick her up. Tiffany sighed, she started to feel a little scared because she was going to race with her cousin. Yes, even though Dian is famous for being great in the racing arena, Tiffany is still afraid, that unexpected things can happen at any time.
Tiffany opened her wardrobe, she took a jacket that she had never worn because she liked it too much, the jacket that Dian gave her. She took it and put it on. Tiffany tied her hair in the same style that her cousin always wore, she felt that she needed to look like Dian so she wouldn't attract attention later.
"I think this is enough...." She said then took her waist bag which was very small and might only fit her handphone.
Tiffany went out and headed to the living room, she wanted to wait for Dian there so she wouldn't spend any longer, she was afraid that her father would be angry with Dian for asking her out for the race. Moreover, Tiffany knows Dian very well, the girl will not lie about their destination tonight.
And sure enough, according to what Tiffany had expected, when she was just sitting in the living room, suddenly the voice of one of the maids in the house greeted the arrival of... Dian!
"Hallo!." Dian greeted by raising one hand.
"Hallo!." Tiffany replied, who then hurriedly approached Dian.
"How? The deal, right?." Asked Dian when Tiffany was in front of her.
"Yes, I agree with you. But promise not to be weird, just be a racing partner, right?."
"Yes, if we win, we will divide the money in two. How about it?."
"No, I don't want to. I asked to come just for fun. Not because I need money anymore." "Yeah, but... it's up to you, but then don't blame me if you're surprised by the money. I don't race because of lack of money either, as long as you know."
Tiffany nodded in agreement, then she invited Dian to quickly get out of her house, but not with Dian, the girl even wanted to ask permission first because she brought the house's daughter, at least to one of the maids there, obviously, Tiffany didn't agree with that.
"Don't, Dian. We might not leave and you'll be angry with my father!."
"Whatever it is, Tiffany. I'm not used to bringing people without asking their parents' permission, besides I've already contacted Uncle, I told you I would visit tonight."
"Dian, have you gone mad?!." Tiffany couldn't understand Dian, the girl knew how her father reacted to things like that, but...
"You know? Drayen and I aren't someone who can be prevented, right? Even your father couldn't stop me, we're above you, Tiffany. Don't worry, Uncle won't get mad at us. I promise tonight will be easier."
"Are you sure?."
"Very sure, calm down."
The words that came out of Dian's mouth sounded convincing to Tiffany. They finally sat together in the living room waiting for Tiffany's father to return. And not long after, Dian's cell phone rang. The girl immediately stood up and picked up the phone.
"Ah okay, so it's like this... I want to bring Tiffany as my racing partner tonight, Uncle. Can I?."
"Really? Well if that's the case, then I'm very grateful to you!."
"Yeah okay, thank you Uncle, be careful on the road, I'll tell my dad later. Thank you!."
Tiffany was surprised to hear the way Dian spoke, the girl was completely different when she spoke to her father, yes before that Tiffany had never seen the interaction between the two, so Tiffany was afraid that her father would be angry with Dian, but it seems that the response Dian received was very good, the evidence is that the girl continues to say 'thanks'.
"How?." Tiffany asked when Dian had turned to her.
"It's done with your father, now we go."
"That easy for you to get permission?" asked Tiffany amazed.
"Didn't I tell you, in the series of our family tree, nothing can stop me and Drayen, you know even though I'm not from the eldest child but...you can say we are the main family, Tiffany. Don't forget it, you seem to forget it, and look at me lower than you, huh!."
Tiffany chuckled, yes she forgot the password. She approached Dian and took the girl's hand and asked her out. Both of them departed at 10.03 pm, the motorbike that Dian rode through the crowd that night very quickly, made Tiffany who was behind her scared and gripped her jacket tightly. About half an hour later the two of them finally arrived at a big house where without getting off the motorbike, Dian and Tiffany went straight into the door of the house which turned out to be when they entered it...it was not a house, very surprising for Tiffany!
"This isn't a house?." Asked Tiffany who was surprised by the surrounding environment.
"Of course not, if this is a house, there's no way I could enter it with a motorbike, I might have been thrown by the owner of the house."
"I can't believe it, this is your racetrack!."
Around them now there were other motorcyclists, Dian pointed to several people not far from where they were and introduced their names.
"Wait there, soon this place will change... You wait in that tent, it's especially for me, calm down there's only my maid." Said Dian which the girl nodded in return.
"Ask her to prepare you, I have to meet with the organizers of this event first.".
"Okay. Wait a minute, may I ask how much money you bet?."
"The bet this time is around... 300 million per person, long ago. Go, I have to meet with the committee to take care of you." "Okay." Tiffany stepped into a tent with the name.
"Dian." in front of the door, she entered the tent and met the person Dian meant by her maid.
She told the maid that she was Dian's cousin and would be Dian's partner tonight, the maid immediately brought Tiffany to change her clothes to make them more suitable and comfortable in the arena later.
"May I know your name?." Tiffany asked when the maid was helping her put a cloth on her stomach to tighten her stomach while reducing the percentage of serious injuries if something untoward happened.
"Just call me Luna, or you can call me sis." The answer.
"Okay, Sis Luna... I want to ask, Dian is here... Ah I mean, is Dian here well received by them?." Tiffany asked from where she was getting ready she occasionally saw Dian who repeatedly passed her tent.
"Yes, of course, they are good to Dian, especially in her Gank, Gank Darkest, Dian is the only girl they can always work with. They all treat Dian like their sister."
"Is it really real? As far as I know, Dian is not an easy person to make friends with, is Dian nice to them?."
"At first, Dian thought they were just friends she just met, but now... I think Dian also considers them like her brothers, moreover, they also help Dian find information about Drayen."
"If that's true, I'm glad to hear that."
"Alright, it's ready!" Said Luna who then invited Tiffany to come out and meet Dian.
