Chapter 3. Do not forget our promise.

Evening at the dining table, Alisha sits with Her mother and father, Danial Syahreza. Fifty-four-year-old husband is a caring, loving father and wise father. Danial is an entrepreneur engaged in automotive and steel and has new and used car showrooms and distributors steel most significant in the country. However, entering the list of wealthiest people did not make a reason for Danial to pamper his children.

"Hmm, chocolate cake is so delicious. Where did Daddy buy this chocolate cake?" asked Alisha while eating chocolate cake.

"When Daddy went home, Daddy sees anyone selling chocolate cake on the sidewalk, so Daddy stops a moment and buys chocolate cake before reaching home, because Dad knows so well Daddy's one daughter this very like with chocolate cake," teased Danial.

"By the way, Alisha already promised will tell a story about the boy who grazed Alisha in the morning?" asked Laila, reminding Alisha to tell a story to him.

Danial bribed one spoon of small chocolate cake and frowned on her forehead. "Grazed?" asked Danial. He is surprised to hear her daughter is grazed by someone else.

"Yes, Daddy. Not until so hurt, just sprain. I thought Mom had already forgotten about the incident."

Laila and Danial see each other, then carry on tempting Alisha. "How can I forget? Alisha already promises."

"The one that grazed Alisha's is men?" asks Danial to Laila.

"Yes, men."

"Handsome?" asked Danial, curious.

"I don't know, because I no see the man that, that's why I want to ask that thing to Alisha," said Laila, then tempting her daughter.

"Ugh! Daddy and Mommy, what happened with you guys? Your daughter gets an accident. Why are you asking if the boy is handsome or not?" complain, Alisha, who doesn't once think if her parents will say so.

"Yes, He handsome. But it is not related between handsome with an accident," continued Alisha.

See the reaction of the daughter. Danial is afraid if Alisha follows her older sister, Clarissa. "Daddy so happy, if You can humble with a boy until now Lisha no once have boyfriend, right?" say Danial soft.

"Alisha, listen to me. Do not follow the principle of your sister, Clarissa. Don't like the boy. You can be so close with Clarissa, that's good. But don't become anti-male like Your older sister, got it?" said Laila advising Alisha.

Clarissa hears her mother saying from a distance moment she walks them. "Good, eat chocolate cake while talking about me. It's funny, right?" Clarissa quipped.

"Mom tells the truth. When will Clarissa be married? Dameer wants to marry Clarissa, right?" asked Laila, who wanted her daughter to marry and have a son-in-law.

Dameer Latif Owais, regularly called Dameer, aged three twenty years, working as COO where Clarissa work. Dameer already admires Clarissa since both of them are still in high school until now. The love against Clarissa has not changed even though Clarissa is always cynical against him.

"Mom, please. Do not ask or wane know about Clarissa's life again. Why do you want me to get married? All man is the same. No one is sincere!" annoyed Clarissa and moved.

"Where are you going? At least eat chocolate cake first," Danial asked, stopping Clarissa's steps.

"No want, Daddy can eat and funny talk without me." Clarissa, leave them.

"Look, My husband. I said about the truth, but her reaction was like that. Clarissa is getting more and more change. The more hate boy, now Alisha, her sister like want to follow Clarrisa principle, if correct like that it seems destiny, we'll never have son-in-law," Laila annoyed.

"Be patience-"

"How can be patient!" interrupted Laila, stopping saying to her husband.

"Dad, a mom, calm first, please. For Clarissa, let Alisha do the talking with her. Calm yes, don't be angry." Alisha stands up and approaches her older sister.

After arriving at Clarissa's room, Alisha couldn't see anybody there. It seems the room is so quiet. No one people there. Then she goes to the room to take the cell phone to power the battery.

"Oh, Finally, You're in here. Before, Lisha, go to your room. But you not in there." Alisha is sitting on the sofa near the bed.

Clarissa took Alisha's novel and turned around in Alisha's direction. Take a deep breath and say, "Sorry, I entered your room without permission first. I borrowed this novel" Clarissa brought the book and moved to go out of Alisha's room.

"No problem, Sis. My own, your own too," said Alisha, who stopped Clarissa's steps.

Clarissa, who was still annoyed because her mother had asked about marriage, became awkward. Then she sits in front of her young sister.

"So, you agree with my opinion, My younger sister?" Clarissa asked suddenly.

"I mean, until now, you're still single and never make a relationship with anyone, even You no once friendly with a boy, so it means by quietly You agree with my opinion, right?"

Alisha was only silent, confused about what she should say to her Older Sister, then smiled. Clarissa approached Alisha and said seriously.

"Believe me, we no need men, men in the world this no could trust, except for our Daddy. I mean, Daddy is different from all wicked men. Can you promise we are single together? No need to get married. Men only can make all complicated and give problems in our life," said Clarissa.

Alisha smiles, then takes a deep breath, still confused about how to respond to her older sister, who already hates men.

"Alisha wants to promise, but with one condition."

"Which condition?" Clarissa asked fast.

"My Sister, can you eat chocolate cake with Mom and Dad?" asked Alisha.

Clarissa stands up with an alert. "No! Eating chocolate cake makes my teeth sick. You can eat, but for me, no." Clarissa walks go out of Alisha's room.

"Come on, Sis. A little only," Alisha requested.

Clarissa flipped her body and looked at Alisha. "No. I want to read this novel. Do not forget our promise. Remember, except for our Daddy, men can give a problem only."

Alisha smiles bitterly after Clarissa comes out of his room. She takes a cell phone and sees the phone battery is already full. Who knows if Alisha suddenly remembers with Arkaan, the boy has grazed herself this morning.

"Is I must contact him, just send a simple message and say thanks for today, because he was already responsible?" asked Alisha in a monologue.

Afraid Arkaan will think if she likes him. She was confused about what she should do. Is it wrong if she sends a simple message to Arkaan, the stranger man?

Alisha plays cell phone, still thinking About sending a message or not. "But if not say thank you. What if he thinks I'm arrogant?" Alisha asked herself.
