Alice woke up when the sun was shining brightly. She doesn't know what time it is, but Alice's body feels very painful.
She looked around, and it turned out she was in Jordi's apartment. Alice already knows the interior of Jordi's room, which she often visits. How surprised Alice was to see Jordi sleeping next to her. Jordi was shirtless and was even more surprised when she found herself only covered in a blanket. She looked under the blanket, and Alice found that she was not wearing any clothes. "ARGH! WHAT HAPPENNED, JORDI?" Alice screamed hysterically and at the same time woke up Jordi, who had exerted too much energy last night. Jordi, who was still gathering his spirit and strength, immediately woke up because of Alice's scream. He found himself without a single thread and only covered by a thick blanket. Meanwhile, Alice, the same thing happened to her. Jordi immediately sat up and thought again about what happened last night. "Sorry, Alice." Those were the only words Jordi could say to Alice. Really... he still couldn't remember what happened last night, but it looked like they were making love, as evidenced by all their clothes that were scattered on the bedroom floor. "Why are we like this, Jor?" Alice began to regret herself for what had happened. "Sorry." Jordi couldn't say anything. Alice's body shook violently, but she didn't want to cry. She really regrets what happened to her and Jordi. How will their relationship become awkward after this? Can they still be friends? "I will take responsibility, Alice." Jordi put his arm around Alice's shoulder and kissed the top of his friend's head. "Re-responsible for?" Alice's brain is still hank. This incident shocked Alice so much that she couldn't think. "Yes... I will definitely marry you. Especially if you are pregnant. I will be responsible for you and our child." Jordi looked at Alice's eyes very seriously. He had made up his mind to look after Alice even though he had to be separated from Hana, his girlfriend of only one year. Now Hana is abroad on holiday with her extended family. Alice thought for a moment. Shut up. She tried to clear her mind and the chaos that had occurred. "Alice," called Jordi to interrupt Alice's thoughts. "Never mind. Pretend none of this ever happened," said Alice, trying to be strong. She didn't dare look at Jordi's face at all. This is not one hundred percent Jordi's fault, Alice is also responsible for this incident and Alice should not blame all these problems on Jordi. Jordi and his family are too good for Alice. "Huh... what do you mean by pretending what we have done was never happening?" Jordi is increasingly confused by Alice. "Never mind. Forget it. Besides, I won't get pregnant, Jor," Alice whispered. "Huh... what do you mean you won't get pregnant, Alice?" Jordi was confused. His friend was very strong and didn't seem to mind that Jordi had taken the most valuable thing as a girl from Alice. "Later, when I go home, I will buy contraceptive pills at the pharmacy. So you don't have to worry about pregnancy anymore," replied Alice in a hoarse voice, holding back her regret. She has to be tough. "B-but I..." Jordi felt unwilling to hear Alice say something like that to herself. Jordi wants to take responsibility for what he did to Alice. Consciously or not, Jordi has ruined Alice's life. "Never mind; we don't need to prolong it any longer. Our future is still long. There are still many things I want to achieve, and I don't want to burden you with liability issues." Alice tried to pick up her clothes that were scattered on the floor. Embarrassment covers Alice because Jordi sees her all the time. Maybe without batting an eye at all. "Alice, don't be like that. I feel like I'm being a really rude guy to you. I've taken away your future husband's rights," regretted Jordi. "Never mind. Virgin or not, that's not a problem at the moment. Even if Nino doesn't want to marry me later because I'm not a virgin, that's fine. I'll just look for a foreigner to marry me," Alice decided without thinking. Nino is Alice's boyfriend, whom Alice has only been dating for eleven months. "Yeah, don't be like that, Alice. I already said that I want to be responsible." Jordi became annoyed with everything Alice said, which seemed to negate Jordi's presence as a responsible person. "This is all a mistake that we have to cover up until the end of our lives, Jor. Don't ever discuss all this again. We are friends as usual; nothing wrong has happened in our relationship," said Alice. "Alice... I" It felt like Jordi wanted to be angry with Alice. However, Jordi is not a jerk who sleeps with random women. Alice was the first woman Jordi had sex with. "Never mind, Jor. I want to go home first." Alice pulled back the blanket and started picking up all her clothes that were scattered carelessly on the floor. Alice feels embarrassed about herself with Jordi. She wanted to cry, but she still had to hold on. Friendship during this time must remain friendship. Alice can't ask Jordi to marry her. The reason is that Jordi's parents have helped Alice a lot, especially with scholarship issues. They helped Alice because Alice had saved Jordi during an accident and even donated her blood to Jordi. So Jordi's parents feel indebted to Alice. However, despite that gratitude, Jordi's parents warned Alice to behave properly towards Jordi. Just as a friend, nothing more, because Jordi is the heir of the Soebrata Group, who will definitely be married in business to someone of Jordi's level. They had told Alice from the start. Alice really understands Jordi's parents requests. She has also promised Jordi's parents that Alice will not have any feelings for Jordi. Just good friends. Jordi and Hana's romantic relationship is a relationship that is highly approved by Jordi's parents. They are at the same level. Jordi's parents even asked Alice for help to bring Jordi closer to Hana. What did Alice do? Of course she did. She asked Jordi to date Hana. The result? Jordi and Hana are dating and have been dating for a year. Alice successfully matched Jordi with Hana, and they will even get engaged next month. Jordi's parents are very happy with the results of Alice's hard work. "Alice," Jordi called again when Alice had gone into the bathroom to put on her clothes. Alice saw that her body was full of the results of Jordi's fondling. She winced in pain in her intimate parts. Earlier, she tried to walk even though it hurt. Alice felt like she wanted to cry. "What should I do now?" Alice whispered in her heart. Jordi immediately put on his clothes. He saw the red stain on the white sheets, and suddenly guilt rose in Jordi's chest. It feels tight. Knock! Knock! Knock! Jordi knocked on the bathroom door while wearing his full clothes. What a mess of clothes scattered on the floor. Last night, Jordi and Alice must have been crazy. "What, Jor?" asked Alice, holding back her tears while putting on her clothes. Her body felt so painful, like it was being split in two. "Can we talk again? I can't do all this and pretend that none of this happened!" Jordi stressed. "That's it, Jor. Don't prolong it!" Alice whispered. Her voice was starting to shake. She couldn't talk to Jordi anymore. Suddenly from the door. TING TONG! TING TONG! TING TONG! The doorbell to Jordi's apartment unit rang as if impatient. Jordi and Alice's hearts felt like they were going to fall out. Who came to Jordi's apartment? Really, that person came at the wrong time.The sound of the bell being pressed in Jordi's apartment unit seemed like it wouldn't be patient.Alice, who panicked, immediately came out of the bathroom and was fully dressed. She then gave Jordi a code to straighten the messy bed and replace the bed sheets with new, spotless sheets. After finishing all that, Alice gave Jordi a code to immediately open the door, while Alice would hide in Jordi's cupboard.Jordi immediately came out of his room and headed towards the entrance. He looked at the door view and found Hana behind the door."Oh, my God. Bad time!" Jordi cursed when he saw Hana's bent face.At first Jordi wanted to open the door straight away, but he saw Alice's shoes and bag on the floor right near the entrance."Oh my..." Jordi immediately took Alice's shoes and bag into his room, throwing them into the cupboard that Alice was occupying."Ow... slow down, wow!" cursed Alice."There's Hana," said Jordi quietly.Alice immediately covered her mouth, then Jordi closed the cu
Jordi panicked because he heard something fall. "Did Alice fall? Did she faint?" Jordi muttered to himself. He became very worried about Alice, who was still in the cupboard. He didn't even care about Hana's accusations. It felt like Jordi wanted to immediately throw Hana out of his apartment now. "This is none of your business, so you better get out of here. I still want to continue making love with the beautiful girl in my room. So please... don't disturb my fun!" Jordi pulled Hana's hand to get out of his apartment unit, even though Hana was still trying to hold on. Hana's energy was far less than Jordi's, so Hana was forced to leave Jordi's apartment unit feeling confused. "JORDI!" shouted Hana, who was still hitting the door of Jordi's apartment unit. Jordi no longer wants to serve Hana. Let Hana complain to her parents or Jordi's parents later. Jordi didn't care at all; the most important thing now was how Alice was doing. Jordi ran to his room and found Alice tidying up
"There's still a long way to go in life, Jor. Besides, you can't possibly marry me." said Alice, Try to calm down.Jordi got up from his seat and walked slowly towards Alice, who was still busy eating. He then pulled up the chair next to Alice and turned Alice's body to face him."What do you mean?""You don't have any feelings for me at all. There's no love, so why do you have to force me to get married?""Al ..." "Especially because you are scared that I will be pregnant. No! I don't want that, and I don't want to feel sorry for my child because he or she lives without love from his father," explained Alice as if she didn't care about the sad look in Jordi's eyes."What if I say I love you?""You're ridiculous!" Alice swiftly poked Jordi's forehead. "You're still affected by the drug, aren't you?" teased Alice, smiling confusedly."Are you serious?" Jordi stared at Alice's eyes very deeply."Never mind... don't because of what happened last night, you said you love me. I'm not aski
"No!" Alice said it firmly, even though she was very embarrassed. Alice didn't expect that she would be serving Jordi's seductive lips. "Haha... don't lie to me. I know you really like it when I kiss you." Jordi chuckled amusedly seeing Alice, who was getting more and more embarrassed. "I want to go home now." Alice pushed Jordi away from her, then started to take her bag and shoes. "Hana is still in front, you know!" Jordi said he was lying. What's more, the goal is to keep Alice in her apartment longer. "Are you serious?" Alice lowered her bag again. "Why can't I be serious?" "So when can I go home?" asked Alice, who was starting to get desperate. She was no longer strong enough to be with Jordi in the same place. Her heart kept beating erratically. "Later tonight. I'll take you with me. Then you'll just wear a hoodie and my bag. So you won't find out that you're a girl. Oh yes... don't forget to wear a mask and sunglasses." "ARGH! Jordi, why is it so complicated?" Alice sta
"Yes, that's because I'm still sleepy and you're bothering me," said Jordi irritably. He looked for whatever excuse he could to get rid of Hana and Norita from his apartment. "You lied," said Hana, who still didn't believe Jordi. "You guys really don't believe me, do you?" Jordi protested. He pretended to get a drink in the kitchen while guarding Alice's hiding place so that Norita and Hana would not visit him. "But there are kissmarks on your neck, Jor!" Now Hana's voice started to come out in a protesting tone. "Oh, well... that's the name of the club too. Everyone is drunk. So if a drunk woman gives me a kissmark on my neck, that's normal," Jordi explained again. "So you were drunk last night? Oh my goodness, Jordi! I have told you many times that you shouldn't be drunk." said Norita angrily. "Yes, yesterday was the graduation ceremony; just passed the tri
"But first, you promise me one thing!" Jordi looked at Alice's eyes, which were glistening with tears."What?""Promise first!""Ah... this is a tricky promise! I'm too lazy to promise you," said Alice.She was too often deceived and trapped by Jordi's promises, where the last sufferer was her. Alice already knows Jordi's annoying behavior by heart."No. This time I won't lie!" Jordi stared at Alice's beautiful eyes. He tried to reassure Alice with his very serious eyes."I'll listen first; what do you want? If it makes sense to me, then I'll do it." Now Alice is smarter than ever. Not to surrender and believe in Jordi's promises and boasts."Haha... you're starting to get smart, aren't you?" Jordi poked Alice's forehead gently."Of course""I want you to never leave me. No matter what will happen next," asked Jordi very seriously."Hmm...""Why are you even thinking?" Jordi protested
Alice's cell phone rang, indicating an incoming message. Alice immediately grabbed her cellphone and saw who sent her the message.Jordi: Alice, don't you ever think about leaving me! Because I will chase you forever. I love you to death, and no one can replace you in my heart!Alice stared at the flat screen on her cellphone. Take a rough breath. "ARGH! Why is it like this?" Alice screamed in her heart while ruffling her own hair.Chaotic... that's the most appropriate word for Alice right now.Ting!Alice's cell phone rang again. Lazily, Alice looked again at the contents of the message, and it most likely came from Jordi, and it turned out that Alice was wrong. The person who sent the message was Nino. His current boyfriend is out of town because of his work.Nino: Hi, darling. What are you doing? What time did you come home yesterday? Why didn't you tell me?Alice: Sorry. I forgot. Last night Jordi was sick. So I hel
Alice stuttered. She didn't know what she should do. Accept Nino as her husband? No. Alice is too dirty for that. Nino didn't deserve a newly broken Alice."Alice," Nino called softly and broke Alice's thoughts."Yes, sorry," Alice answered nervously."Will you marry me?" Nino repeated his question again. His position was still the same, kneeling while pointing the box containing the ring in front of Alice."I-I..." Alice was confused about what to answer. She wanted to say yes, but Alice couldn't lie to herself that she didn't love Nino. How will this loveless marriage continue? Poor Nino, who had too much hope for Alice. In the eleven months Alice has been in a relationship with Nino, she has really tried to love Nino, but for some reason it is very difficult.Moreover, Jordi always interferes with their getting to know each other. If Alice said no, then Nino would definitely b
"Jordi! No! You have no right to take Luke from me! Luke is my child! Only mine, not yours!" Alice insisted."But it also has my seed that produced Luke! You're not an amoeba that splits itself to reproduce! Clearly, Luke is my child!" Jordi replied, not accepting it."Jordi ..." Alice interjected weakly.Alice knows Jordi's nature very well, which probably hasn't changed until now. Jordi cannot be scolded; he must be told gently.Jordi fell silent for a moment. Alice's face, which looked almost like she was about to cry, made him realize he had shouted at the mother of his child."Please ... don't be like that. I'm begging you." Alice pleaded with a hoarse voice."Okay. But tell me what happened! How did we end up like this?" Jordi replied softly. He no longer raised his voice.Alice took a deep breath."Yes, Luke is indeed your child. You are right. I am not an Amoeba either." Alice whispered, finally having to tell the truth
Jordi immediately got out of his car. With trembling hands and trying to calm himself, he pressed the doorbell in front of Alice's house.Ding Dong!Jordi stood silently in front of Alice's house. His legs were like jelly, weak with the reality he might have to face.CLICK!"Jo-jordi!" Alice's eyes widened. She was really very confused right now. Why does Jordi know her house?"Alice ..." Jordi said weakly."How did you get here?""Uhm ... may I come in?""No ... let's talk outside."Alice pushed Jordi away from her front door and immediately closed it."Why? Am I not allowed to enter your house?" Jordi said softly."Don't. My husband will be upset if he sees you.""Husband? Where is your husband? Please introduce me to him.""What's the point, Jor? Forget it ... just go to your own home.""No! I came here to find something.""What are you looking for?""I...""What you're looking for isn't in my house!" Alice said firmly, very protective."Why? What do you know about what I'm looking
"Does she already have children?" Jordi was very curious. For the past five years, he really hasn't heard from any of his friends. His life is only focused on work and Anita."Hmm ... it seems like Alice's child is a boy. Should I just buy a gift?"He didn't want to think too long. He immediately left the Fleko office and went to the shopping mall. He entered the toy store."Hmm ... how old is that child? Four years or three years, I wonder?" Jordi wondered to himself."Well, whatever, I'll just buy him a toy car and a water gun so he can play. Just consider it a gift from your uncle. Hehe ... " chuckled Jordi to himself as he looked at the toy that he thought was nice and interesting for Alice's child, who should have been a boy."Can I play with Alice's child? Maybe it will be fun. Uhm ... her husband? Is he allowed? But, isn't it that a friend can't invite their friend's child to play? No way ... of course, it's fine to play with Alice's husband
"It turns out he is still alive.""HAH!"Ranti was really surprised by what Alice said."I'm just as surprised as you, Mom.""How did you find out?""Jordi's company is a client at my company. And ... the project I've been working on until overtime since yesterday is Jordi's.""Don't you know about him?" Ranti couldn't fathom the very frightening coincidence.It was like a nightmare to get involved with Jordi again. Especially with Norita, who was so terrifying. Making Ranti and Alice's life in Jakarta for two weeks even more terrifying.Norita's henchman went crazy inside Alice's house. So, Alice and Ranti's departure to Australia was expedited. Fortunately, Nathan helped both of them escape Norita's grip."No, Mom. The company seems kind of closed off like that. So, I have no idea who the owner of the company is.""So what happened next? What did he say to you, Al?" Ranti was curious."He has amnesia, Mom
Alice just wanted to cry upon hearing Jordi's words. The woman actually misses Jordi very much. In fact, almost every night she and Luke pray for Jordi to be happy in heaven. But, it turns out Jordi is still in the world. What a strange prayer when she thinks back on it."I ... I don't know," Alice replied hesitantly."Didn't I tell you?"Alice shook her head."It's better if you contact a psychologist or psychiatrist. Who knows, they might be able to help you.""You are just like Anita. Telling me to see a doctor.""Well, you do need help. Why refuse it?""I feel ... if I meet her, then this illness of mine could be cured.""I don't know, I can't help you, Jordi. It's better if you see a doctor so you won't think about the past anymore. Anyway, you have to live your new life. Starting a family with Anita. Your children will definitely be handsome and beautiful. Like you and Anita.""Of course. I have really good genes."
"Can't count anymore. Too many until I got dizzy."Jordi chuckled to himself upon hearing Alice's words."So, who do I love the most?""I don't know. You're the one in charge, why would I ask something like that?" protested Alice. "That's such an unreasonable question.""Don't be like that. It's just that the person is having memory loss and trying to regain their memory." That's why he asks strange questions."Yeah, you're weird. You already have a fiancée who is definitely beautiful and smart, why do you even need to ask about the past? Not interesting at all.""Anita is indeed beautiful and smart.""Look, she's the perfect woman. She suits you better than the mediocre taste you had before."Jordi laughed heartily.It feels like this is the first time Jordi can laugh so happily in the past five years, which have been filled with stress and pressure."Was my taste really that bad before?""Indeed, y
Alice took a deep breath. "Okay, lunch.""That's the great."Jordi smiled at Alice because he could win."I'll leave first. I have work to do.""Alright, I'll wait for you in the lobby this afternoon."Alice nodded and immediately left Jordi alone in the meeting room.When Nathan saw that Alice had left the meeting room, he immediately approached her."Alice, to my office for a moment."Alice nodded and followed Nathan from behind."What's wrong, Sir?" Alice asked as she entered Nathan's office."Jordi? The person from the past that you mourn? Whom you thought had died?""Ssh ... don't be too loud, Sir!" Alice pleaded."Ok, so he's Luke's daddy?"Alice nodded slowly."Then, why did he come here?""He... didn't I tell you that Jordi had an accident and died?""Okay, then why is he still alive?" Nathan wondered to himself."Well, that's what was driving me half crazy
Jordi waved his hand at Alice."Al, do you know him?" Valencia asked Alice."Y-yes.""Everyone, this is Mr. Jordi from Miracle Compay. He is the owner and CEO." Valencia introduced him to everyone.Alice's heart raced even more."Let's sit down first." Nathan guided Alice's hand because he felt Alice was really stiff now.Jordi kept watching what was happening with Alice. For some reason, his eyes couldn't move away from Alice, who was very shocked by his arrival."Al, can you present?""asked Nathan.Frankly, Alice was blank. She is confused by what she is facing now. Even Jordi said "long time no see" to him. Truly, it's confusing."Sir, could you please be the one to present? I ... I'm blank." Alice pleaded."Okay. I'll take over for you."Nathan then began to present what Alice had created in the PowerPoint in front of everyone in the meeting room.Jordi nodded slowly in agreement with what the Fl
"Later... I will think about it again."Anita let out a rough sigh."Please help, Aunt. I can't take it anymore like this. It's like competing with a phantom for five years.""Yes. You just relax. I will think of another way for your relationship with Jordi. For sure, for Auntie, the one who will be my daughter-in-law is you only. Not Alice or any other woman.""Thank you, Aunt."After finishing her conversation with Norita, Anita left the room and pulled Jordi's hand to talk privately on Jordi's balcony."Jor ...""Um, yes?""Are you still mad at me because I forced you earlier?""No, not really. I realize that I am also at fault. I didn't want to make an effort for both of us, but I was always haunted by a shadow whose identity I didn't even know.""Do you think ... we can get married?" Anita said despairingly.Jordi was increasingly confused about what to say to Anita."Yes. But ..." A hint of dou
