Ting ...
The snack shop bell rang, signaling that a guest had arrived. The door opened to reveal the figure of a handsome man who smiled faintly while carrying a bouquet of red roses.
He is Dilan Arsenio, a 26-year-old man who now serves as the president director of his family's company.
The sweet smile on Dilan's handsome face never faded. The man walked towards the cashier of the shop and approached a beautiful girl with long black hair who was also smiling faintly at him.
The girl is Dilan's lover. Davina Deolinda is a beautiful 24-year-old girl who has been dating Dilan for the last 3 years.
"Are you done?" Dilan asked his girlfriend.
Davina nodded slightly and smiled. "Yeah, I just finished packing," she replied.
Dilan gave a bouquet of roses that he brought. "This is for you. Happy anniversary, Sweetie..."
Davina was very touched by Dilan's sweet treatment of her. Although not a big and special thing, it was enough for her.
Davina has never received attention or affection from anyone.
"Thank you," Davina said as she accepted the bouquet of roses.
Dilan just smiled and nodded his head happily.
"Where are you taking me?" Davina asked.
"Just a little walk. Lately, I'm always been busy with my work. I want to spend time with you," answered Dilan.
"Okay. I'll get ready for a while and close the shop," Davina said and hurried to finish the rest of her work.
Dilan smiled and nodded. He sat in the empty customer seat waiting for Davina to finish cleaning up all the remaining work.
A pair of Dilan beads did not escape the sight of the beautiful girl who was busy. Although they have been dating for a long time, their relationship is always harmonious and there has never been the slightest quarrel.
Dilan loves Davina whatever the reason. They have gone through many things together, even though both of them did not get the blessing of Dilan's parents.
Not without reason, Dilan's parents did not accept their relationship. They don't agree because Davina is an orphan girl.
Davina's father died when she was 17 years old due to an accident, while Davina's mother died when Davina was 5 years old due to cancer.
Now, Davina lives with her uncle and aunt, and her evil cousin. Every day there is a reason that makes Davina get scolded and angry with her aunt.
Although Davina did nothing wrong, in the eyes of her uncle and aunt's family, Davina was always wrong and looked bad for them.
Today, Dilan intends to bring Davina to his house again after a few months ago. Although his family never greeted Davina well, Dilan never gave up on getting the blessing of his family.
Now the lovers are standing in front of the massive door of the Dilan family's luxurious house.
Davina felt very nervous and held Dilan's hand very tightly.
"Why did you invite me here? You said just for a walk, didn't you?" Davina asked who felt lied to.
"Don't be afraid. I brought you here to ask my parents' blessing again, I will be more serious with you," said Dilan calmly.
"What do you mean? I don't understand, Dilan..." Davina whispered, lowering her head.
"Well, you don't need to ask too many questions come on, let's go in and meet my parents," said Dilan as he tightened his grip on his hand and took Davina into the luxurious house.
The couple walked in and saw Dilan's parents sitting and talking with a beautiful girl too.
Familiar with Dilan, the girl is Adelia. The only daughter of Bian's business friend.
"Are you home yet?" asked Kinan, Dilan's mother.
The middle-aged woman smiled at the arrival of her only son. a moment later, her eyes turned to Davina who smiled faintly greeting her.
Instantly, Kinan's face turned sour.
"Dilan? Why did you bring back this orphan girl?" growled Bian.
"Daddy can't say that to Davina. She has a name!" sarcasm Dilan did not accept.
"Is that the fact? Even this girl won't deny it," sneered Kinan while glancing nonchalantly at Davina.
Now, Davina feels even more scared and hurt. She is indeed an orphan, but shouldn't such a status be made clear in front of others?
Davina slowly released her grip from Dilan's hand. Making Dilan look at her confused and surprised.
"I'll explain why I brought Davina here. I will marry her!" Dilan said firmly.
"I can't. I vehemently refuse your wish!" Bian said raising his voice.
"Mommy also doesn't agree. Mommy will never approve of your relationship with this girl!" Kinan said.
Adelia, who saw the commotion, couldn't help but stare at Davina with pity. I asked if Adelia likes Dilan, then the answer is yes.
But, she also as a girl would not be able to bear it if she saw another girl crying and being treated like that. it was just as she imagined what if the one in that position was her?
"Agreed or not. I'm still going to marry Davina?!" Dilan shouted firmly.
Dilan's pair of eyes widened perfectly because of his anger. The atmosphere of the house that was once peaceful and peaceful turned suddenly into a boisterous one because of Dilan.
"That's enough, Dilan..." Davina whispered.
All attention is focused on the beautiful girl with neatly flowing hair.
"I should have realized this long ago. You and I are not the same. we are different in every way," said Davina holding back tears.
The beautiful girl couldn't stop her tears from falling. Her body seemed to tremble, unable to contain the sadness of the situation.
"I don't want to be a barrier between you and your family. We'd better end it here," the girl continued.
Dilan froze after hearing Davina's words. He tried his best to defend the girl to get the blessing of his family, but the girl easily gave up. Even in front of his family.
"What did you say? You didn't say this did you don't do this, Davina? I beg you..." Dilan begged.
"Stupid boy! You shouldn't be begging a dumb girl like her!" Bian growled full of emotion.
"I DON'T CARE WHATEVER THAT IS. I LOVE DAVINA, AND I DON'T CARE ABOUT MY PRIDE!"
"I'm sorry. I hope you can forget me. I will be gone forever from your life, Dilan. Thank you for everything." Davina decided and ran out of the mansion.
Dilan rushed to stop Davina's footsteps but was restrained by Bian's bodyguards. The middle-aged man would never let his son go after Davina.
"Keep Dilan in his room!" Bian said firmly.
Roughly, Dilan was dragged into his room and locked from the outside.
"For whatever reason. I hate this family!" shouted Dilan from inside his room.
Meanwhile, Kinan sighed in the face of how stubborn Dilan was. The woman then sat beside Adelia, who had been silently listening to the great fight.
The beautiful brunette girl was surprised by Davina's decision. although to be honest there was a little joy in her heart, she also couldn't deny that he was also saddened by what Davina had to go through.
"Are you okay?" Kinan asked Adelia.
Adelia smiled awkwardly and nodded her head.
"Yes, Mrs. Kinan. I'm fine," Adelia replied politely.
"Sorry for this commotion. But, you should be happy because Dilan's relationship with that damn girl is over," said Kinan.
"But, what about Dilan? He loves Davina. He would never want to marry me," Adelia whispered.
"You don't need to worry. Let me take care of everything," said Kinan softly.
Adelia could only obey and nodded her head in resignation. I don't know what will happen next, she only hopes that Dilan wants to marry her and also wants to try to open his heart to her.
----
Meanwhile, Davina wept all the way lamenting her very unlucky fate. Although she can force her ego to continue with Dilan, the girl will not be so willing to damage the relationship between Dilan's family.
For Davina, she is enough of Dilan's love and care. Now is the time for Dilan to truly find his happiness.
Without Dilan...
