A moment of silence greeted Zeline. It has been nearly five years, Zeline chose to live in a luxury apartment alone. Zeline is the eldest of two siblings, and she has a younger brother who is currently studying in Singapore. At the same time, her parents are nomadic, depending on their business being built in which city or country, that's where they will settle.
Today was so tiring for Zeline. She had to do make-up for three clients in three different places. Polishing one's face is not that tiring; it's just that the journey from one client to another takes so much time. The traffic in the capital is, of course, difficult to avoid.
Zeline works as a freelance MUA because she doesn't want to work under a contract, so whenever she wants to take a day off, no one will stop her.
It was already 10:17 p.m, but the apartment bell suddenly rang. Zeline hurried to the door and peeked through the intercom from inside her house. It turned out that three beautiful women had stood waiting for Zeline to open the door.
"Should all of you be visiting almost midnight like this?" Zeline quipped to her three friends.
The three looked indifferent and chose to enter and sit on the sofa without Zeline's welcome. Zeline could only roll her eyes at the behaviour of her three friends.
Fini lit a cigarette, puffs of smoke-filled Zeline's living room. Mesya compiled ten cans of cold beer and three large pizza boxes from each bag she was carrying.
"Why are the three of you here all night? No dates scheduled?" asked Zeline while taking a bite of the pizza slices Mesya brought.
"My fiancé is in Malaysia."
Vera swallowed a bite of her pizza and said, "My crush is busy working on his office deadlines."
Zeline looked at Fini, who was busy with her cigarette. "No attractive man to fight in bed with."
Zeline giggled in horror at Fini's words. It is still difficult for her to accept her friend's words if sex is used.
"Have you registered yourself?" asked. Vera and Mesya looked at Zeline shining hopefully.
Zeline shook her head. "I haven't had time to do it. I've been busy all day."
Mesya took a Macbook from her bag and opened an international dating site. She started typing something seriously on his MacBook.
"What are you doing, Mey?" Zeline asked curiously.
Mesya raised her palm to silence Zeline. "I'm registering you on a site."
"A porn site?" Fini was interested, and Vera threw a peanut shell on her head.
"Shit!" cursed Fini because of that.
"You forgot if our best friend is still a virgin? How could she possibly have a private pervert video if she's afraid of a man's long gun?" Once heard, Mesya's words seemed to mock Zeline openly.
"You promised, didn't you? If you have a boyfriend this time, you will prove what we all say, if sex is not painful. But that is something fun." Vera seemed to hold Zeline by bringing up what she said yesterday.
"Yes," Zeline answered doubtfully.
"I've recorded your answer, Dear!" said Fini happily.
"You bitch!" cursed Zeline, and her three friends just chuckled.
All her friends are busy focused on their respective activities. Zeline was busy with the TV remote in her hand, then accidentally pressed her hand on a film where the film's players were kissing intently while touching each other's bodies. Zeline's body was bristling; all she could do was kiss hotly with her row of an ex, nothing more.
It could be that after the kiss, it was continued to the next activity, playing horses in the room, for example. But, because of Zeline's fear, she was forced to refuse gently and ended up being cheated on her again for the same reason.

"Taraaaaa ... Your account is ready! I've also chosen a great photo so that men are attracted to you," said Mesya proudly.
Zeline, Vera, and Fini approached Mesya. They were all fixated on the site that had been taking up Mesya's time.
"Are you sure you chose this photo? It's too sexy!" Zeline doubted.
"Right, those guys think Zeline is a slut."

I'm single, Happy ☻
The profile photo chosen by Mesya is the result of a Zeline photoshoot for an underwear brand.
Mesya coded Fini to respond to Zeline and Vera's protests. Fini agreed to the idea of her other two friends to change the profile photo.
"She looks really like a bitch," said Fini honestly.
"She has hundreds of collections of sexy photos that make men drool. But, unfortunately, this sexy woman is still keeping her hymen."
Vera and Fini chuckled, no doubt annoyed Zeline.
"You're a free-spirit, Zel. But your spirit is only in front of the camera. Ckckck — what a shame!" quipped Fini.
“Yes, and I hate that after posting sexy photos of me, many people invite me to play horse in bed. Damn! It's creepy, "admitted Zeline.
"That’s your fault! Why you show off the twin mountains and wilderness of yours on social media? You create wild fantasies of men, even though you are alone — lousy!" Mesya sneered.
Zeline snorted. "I did it out of work necessary if it weren't for a contract worth hundreds of millions, I would, of course, reject it."
"Well, well, it's up to you! Please hurry up and
bring it, your cell phone. I'll download the application. That way, you will easily communicate with your potential lover."
"Remember, choose attractive, muscular, and big!" whispered Fini, and Zeline turned quickly.
"Am I currently participate in a meatball selection competition?" quipped Zeline, and Fini was just annoyed.
"Don't play too far. If later you and he will never be able to meet, it's useless," advised Vera.
"That's right. Choose a man who is easy to reach. Singapore, Malaysia, or Thailand. Aeroplane tickets are not that expensive, and travel time is quite short," Mesya said.
"Choose a rich man; wherever he is, he can reach you. Ugly but rich doesn't matter, let alone big, long and veined!" babbled Fini.
“I don't like ugly men! Because it will ruin my descendent, ”said Zeline, and her three friends chuckled.
"Descendent? Just do it you're afraid, how can you have children? You think that kid came up with the way you charged yourself with a cable? ” quipped Vera.
“Hmm, that's right. Oh well, there's no need to discuss that matter. I got dizzy thinking about it," complained Zeline. "I'll just sleep first. Today is a very tiring day for me," Zeline said goodbye and went into her room, leaving her three other friends.
Just as Zeline was about to cover her body, her three best friends entered and took their places side by side on the bed.
"We haven't jostled like this in a long time!"
"I miss being together in the same bed."
"I want to reminisce about where Zeline held me tight all night."
Zeline turned to her three friends and at once, they all laughed happily.
A man wearing a grey suit sits on his oversized chair. One hand tapped OMAS - GAIA HIGH LUXURY, a pen worth approximately 338 million, onto his desk. He looks so severe, staring at his MacBook screen.Steven reported that all information regarding his identity had been cleared from cyberspace last night. Ricard must give a thumbs-up to the best hacker Steven knows. It’s not useless; Ricard paid a heavy price. 
‘FINALLY’Zeline was making nimble brush strokes on someone's smooth face. Because at this time, she is focused on dressing up as a rising top singer. Her name is soaring in the world of Indonesian music. Zeline is believed to polish her beautiful face to make it even more
Zeline is now sitting pretty in a cafe in the area around Seminyak. She orders her favourite lemon ice tea. The light brown-haired woman is waiting for her old friend who happens to be the owner of the cafe she visited. They had promised to meet and miss when Zeline has free time in Bali.After ten minutes of waiting, finally, Bagus, the cafe owner, and Zeline's old friend came over. They spent their time chatting, and Zeline came to delive
Ricard is not the fierce and cold boss like most stories in the novel. He is a leader who is friendly to his employees, although not excessive. He always replied to the greetings that employees gave him.But today was so different. Ricard smiled wider than usual. Take a leisurely walk showing off his neat white teeth. The women who work in his office who happen to be in the lobby immediately hold on, so they don't fall because they are weak, seeing the charm of his big boss, which is often the level of his good looks.Their CEO today looks so happy. Steven, who saw him, immediately chased Ricard to get into the same elevator."Good morning, Steven!" said Ricard first with a cheerful smile.Steven raised an eyebrow, quite curious about what makes Ricard look so happy."You seem very cheerful this morning," said Steven.Ricard straightened his forehead and stared at his face reflected in the glass of the elevator while stroking his chin."Monday, of
Zeline focuses on dinner and preparations for the impromptu wedding of Mesya and her fiance. Tonight at Mesya's house, a dinner was held before the next day the wedding ceremony hold.Mesya is going to get married, but Zeline is feeling down. Mesya's mother stood beside Zeline, watching every movement of the workers back and forth, arranging Mesya's backyard for a place to eat."Zel, you don't work?" asked Rani, Mesya's mother.Zeline turned her head and looked at the middle-aged woman who looked beautiful and fashionable next to her."I'm not an office worker, auntie. So whenever I want to take a day off, I can. Besides, I can't bear to see aunt busy alone taking care of this," Zeline replied sincerely."You are the best, Zel. Thank you. Oh yes, where are Fini and Vera?""Fini is in a meeting with her client. Vera also has a schedule that can't be canceled. But tonight, they will come here.""It's better for aunt to come in, rest. Auntie needs ext
Instantly, a group of women who have guests of Mesya and Pradipta disbanded. The sweet scene that a handsome man does for a beautiful woman makes them all insecure.Now, only Zeline and Fello stood face to face. Zeline thought she was only dreaming, but it turned out that this was all a reality. One of her hands was holding a bouquet of red roses, and the other was having by Fello. Yes, Fello!The man she met through the online dating app was right in front of her face. Zeline still had trouble speaking, and her throat was choked. Her brain was still having trouble thinking. Until finally, Fello brought her back to reality."Are you okay, Zel?" Fello stroked the back of Zeline's hand gently.Zeline stared at the hand that Fello was stroking. She prayed to herself that Fello would not hear her rumbling heartbeat. But, it seemed that her prayers are ineffective."Zeline Zakeisha. Hello, are you there?" Fello called out to her again.This time, Zeline was
Ricard was so surprised to hear what Zeline said to him—not wanting a gift, just wanting a longer kiss. Did Zeline have a brain seizure or suddenly had her nerves cut off? Why is that woman suddenly becoming aggressive?Just when Fello wanted to bring his face closer to Zeline, that woman burst into laughter, making Fello startled."Seems right, Zeline has had a brain seizure," Fello thought.Zeline casually restarted the car and hit the gas pedal at medium speed. Zeline's beautiful face looked even more dazzling when a smile was created on her face."What you said was just a joke?" Fello asked finally and was answered with a Zeline nod, without turning to Fello."Your face is so tense. I like an expression like that. After all, it's a reply to the joke you made earlier," said Zeline.Fello raised an eyebrow, digesting Zeline's words."You think what I said just a joke? I'm not even kidding at all. I'm serious about a girlfriend or wife," sai
Along the way to the apartment, Zeline kept thinking about what Fello had said to her. The invitation to be a couple and to be his wife. As long as Zeline has been with several men, no one has offered her relationship to a more severe level, even though Zeline desires to get married early.But, today was different. A day that makes Zeline completely lost for words. A handsome man from that American island was willing to fly to Asia just to meet her. What makes Zeline more speechless is that man came still carrying a bouquet of roses at the beginning of their meeting. Coming by driving a Mercedes Benz S-Class, the price was exorbitant, not comparable to the cars parked at Mesya's house. That man admitted that the car was a rental car while in Jakarta. Hell, his brain is crazy. Renting an Alphard is more than enough; even though it's a big boxcar, it's still quite luxurious and expensive.By bringing Merci like that, make Fello look like a successful businessman like Christi
One whole week Ricard was in Indonesia. His arrival in Indonesia was to get acquainted with all members of the Zeline extended family. Zeline and Ricard and their families agreed to have a wedding in New York. Because the requirements for inter-state marriage management are so convoluted in Indonesia, they chose New York as a place to say holy vows before God.Ricard has also gradually learned to speak Indonesian because maybe at any time, he will return to Zeline's homeland, and he already understands what the other Zeline extended family are talking about.While in Indonesia, Zeline still took the time to consult a psychiatrist who handled her phobia. She got the good news. Her dread was gradually disappearing after doing routine therapy some time ago.Ricard, who knew the news, was also excited to welcome their wedding day, which was unique. He will spend the first night with his wife, still a virgin—Ricard's pride.~.~.~.~Zeline asks Ricard to gra
No one will ever know about God's secretsFate leads you to meet your soul mate~BebbyShin~***Surprises that made Ricard and Zeline startled were given by their parents. Previously, Jessie, Ricard's mother, came to Jakarta to meet a woman who is often the subject of her socialite gangs. She was also consumed by Lidya's words regarding the lover of Ricardo Fello Daniello, her beloved son.The past matchmaking failure became an experience for Jessie in choosing her future daughter-in-law. She did not want to choose a future wife for her son carelessly. Women nowadays are only concerned with wealth and luxury life. She does not want to be fooled by a woman from just her social status and appearance.Jessie is quite surprised when she finds out how Ricard met Zeline, an Asian woman whose son now claims to be his girlfriend. Ricard's determination to pay a hacker a fortune erased all of his data from being traced on the Internet to register with an interna
Zeline and Ricard's feet stepped into the hotel ballroom, which was so big, majestic, and luxurious. All the ornaments there were filled with white roses and tulips. Zeline was so impressed by the luxury presented at the silver wedding of Uncle Hendrik and Auntie Jasmine.They both are businessmen who are also of the wealthiest people in Indonesia. They are both relatively close to the Zeline family, considering that the couple does not have children but does not want to adopt someone else's child. They prefer to have several orphanages in Indonesia scattered throughout the area.Fortunately, Zeline and Ricard chose to wear evening dresses when invited to meet Jacobs and Marina, who are Zeline's parents. Zeline looked around her, not knowing much or even almost all the guests Zeline didn't know. But not with Ricard. That man greeted his colleague several times who were also there."This place is prepared up so beautifully and magnificently," muttered Zeline."Our
Ricard's car turned towards the hotel lobby parking lot to the place Zeline’s father had determined. Zeline did not know the purpose of her father having a stern talk there. Ricard was chosen to come to accompany his girlfriend to meet his future father-in-law.Zeline pressed her cell phone to her ear. She called her papa to ask his whereabouts.Restaurant. Her papa spoke that word, and Zeline hurried to meet her parents.Zeline's parents were seen sitting next to each other and having a serious conversation when Zeline walked over to their table."You've finally arrived," said Jacobs when he saw Zeline standing not far from his desk.That night Jacobs was seen wearing a luxurious batik in black, brown, and gold. Meanwhile, Marina wears a maroon-colored kebaya and combines gold with a red songket that is typical of Indonesia."Sorry to make Mama and Papa wait for so long. Ah-well, why are you looking so formal tonight?" asked Zeline."Well, s
Ricard woke up first when his penthouse bell rang. He felt the cellphone on the nightstand beside his bed. Ricard glanced at what time it was, 09:14 local time. He picked up the boxer who lay helplessly on the floor due to his massage activities last night. Before opening the door, the man looked down and kissed Zeline's forehead, who was still sound asleep.It is unusual for the penthouse to have guests in the morning like this. Nobody else visited there often except Steven and some of his assistants for work.Ricard clicked on the intercom to see who had come before opening the door. The man has his back to the camera so that only his back is visible. Ricard didn't want to bother. He thought it was Steven. Casually and without thinking anything nonsense, Ricard pressed the password and opened the penthouse door to usher in his guest."Phewwh ... you finally opened the door," exclaimed the man who succeeded in making Ricard's eyes widen in surprise and flinched.
"I miss you so much, honey," said Ricard."Me too," said Zeline.Both of them are now in the Ricard penthouse. After their conversation, Ricard invited Zeline to move all of his suitcases in the hotel to his penthouse.They plan to meet Ricard's parents and talk about their future and choices. Ricard did not think his mother would be that close to looking for Zeline's whereabouts. It is not tricky for Daniello's family to find out the identity and everything in this world, so it is only natural that Ricard’s mother can quickly get information about Zeline."I don't know what I would have become without you," Ricard said honestly.Zeline laughed and stroked Ricard's jaw. The man she had missed for almost the past month. She thought it would be easy to forget Ricard with the various activities and work, but it did not affect her.She fell in love with Ricard. A handsome man who has power is very wealthy and a reliable enforcer. Currently, Zeline is
Fini is sitting on the sofa in Steven's apartment. The woman has been permitted to access it. While waiting for Steven to come home from work, she took the initiative to rest her body, getting tired quickly.Zeline forced Fini to talk clearly with Steven. She was looking for the best way out of this thing that had already happened. Last night she was filled with disappointment and emotion, so she couldn't think clearly when she told Steven. There is no agreement whatsoever regarding the baby in her womb. Either it will be thrown away, or it will be preserved.From her seat, she could look at the vast city of New York, which is filled with skyscrapers that were not so different from her country's capital city, Jakarta. Fini stroked her flat stomach gently. She was nervous about throwing away the baby of her statusless relationship with Steven.But, she was not ready to have children. Even if people say it is cruel or even murderous, human principles are different. Fort
"Are you Zeline Zakeisha?" asked a middle-aged woman with a beautiful face who looked so classy when Zeline attended a dinner at a big event after dressing the first lady in Indonesia.Zeline stared at the beautiful middle-aged woman from toe to head. There is no flaw at all. Everything looks so perfect."Yes, I'm Zeline. Sorry, who are you?" Zeline asked kindly."I'm Jessie, mother of Ricardo Fello Daniello. You know him, don't you?" said Jessie flat but coldly.Zeline gasped in place. She didn't expect to meet her future mother-in-law here and tonight. Why did Ricard not tell her if his mother was coming to Indonesia? Ah, or maybe Ricard was giving her his usual surprise.Zeline looked right and left to find Ricard. That man is hiding and lets her chat with his mother directly like this."Of course, I know him. Nice to meet, Mrs. Jessie," said Zeline kindly.A small but disparaging smile appeared on Jessie's face, making Zeline think Ricard
Four days before Zeline and Fini's departure for New York!I want to kill myself!Fini wrote in a group chat that she was immediately questioned by her friends, including Zeline. That woman, who is currently busy preparing for her cosmetic brand, rarely gets together and talks with her friends, whether via cellphone or in person.Fini's writing was undoubtedly able to lure her three other friends to join the group chat.What do you mean?Don't be crazy, Fini!It's not an April mop. Your jokes aren't funny!We are not getting that guy's husband's giant sausage. What makes you this frustrated?My clients are currently handsome foreigners. You can choose them.Don't die by suicide. Your sins will pile up. God will not forgive you.Hear what a nun-like Zeline says!There is no more answer from Fini for the babble of her three friends. Fini's disappearance makes Zeline nervous and her two other friends, Mesya and Vera.Zeline gl
