Disappointment

"Engineering? Are you kidding? Bella, do you know what kind of man Randy is? He won't stay with one woman. I've already warned you, but you're too crazy about him..."

"IMPOSSIBLE! THIS IS A LIE... IMPOSSIBLE!" Bella shouted hysterically, making everyone in the place immediately pay attention to her.

"Bella, calm down!" Heri tried to calm Bella who was crying hysterically, not caring about dozens of pairs of eyes looking at her in confusion.

"Randy...fuck!" Bella cried, she really couldn't believe something like this happened to her.

"Bella, never mind...calm down..."

"SHUT UP! DON'T TOUCH ME!" Bella completely lost her sanity. He immediately left the place and drove his car to Randy's apartment.

Bella looked at every corner of this apartment. Every place that reminded him of the sweet touch that was still clearly etched in his memory. Her tears couldn't stop flowing.

"Randy... why did you do that? why...? why? why Randy... why...?" Bella shouted. Even though I have tried calling many times, the number is still not active.

"So, what flowers do you want to buy?" asked Diana while showing her sweet smile.

"Mama said, carnations, white orchids and white roses, hem... looks like that's all," said Ricky. This man seemed to have become a regular customer of this flower shop who always came to buy flowers once a week.

Of course, buying flowers was not his wish, but his mother, for some reason, was very diligent in asking him to buy flowers at Diana's mother's flower shop.

"It seems like Auntie really likes flowers, doesn't she? Do you want them delivered straight away?"

"Mama asked me to take you home, Mama wanted to teach you flower arranging. She said your arrangement was very good."

"Auntie is too much, but that's fine. While the shop is quiet today, I can help Auntie."

"Want to go, huh?" Mrs. Mira's aunt.

"Yes, Ma. Aunt Herliana asked Diana to teach her flower arranging."

"Oh... okay, go on! Make a good arrangement, okay? Don't disappoint our regular customers."

"Yes, Mom!"

"Auntie, shall we excuse ourselves? Ricky will borrow Diana for a moment, then Ricky will take her back!"

"Yes, Auntie believes it. Be careful, okay?"

Meanwhile, Bella's car, waiting for a red light, stopped right in front of Diana's flower shop. Bella opened her car window slightly, this unexpected sight caught before her eyes. Ricky, who came out of the flower shop with Diana, spoke intimately as the two of them got into the car.

Bella's eyes widened, she didn't know when the two of them could be this close? In fact, it's only been two weeks since Bella rejected his proposal. However, since then, there have been no more incoming messages from Ricky.

"What happened to them?" Bella muttered. Diana's smile made his heart hot. Bella really felt a very painful misery right now. But that woman, yes, she always looks happy all the time.

"Damn woman! Turns out this is your game? I won't let you laugh at my suffering!"

Bella went straight home, hastily looking for Grandma, the only person on her side at the moment.

"Grandma...Grandma!" Bella shouted. He couldn't wait to tell Grandma about this.

"Bella, why are you screaming like that? What's wrong? Grandma just finished having a facial, what's wrong with you?"

"Bella has something to tell you!"

"Tell what ?"

"Let's just go to Bella's room, come on, Grandma!" Bella immediately grabbed Grandma's hand and took her to the room.

"What do you want to tell me?"

"Earlier, Bella saw Ricky at Aunt Mira's flower shop."

"Oh yeah? So what?"

"Bella, look, Ricky and Diana came out of the shop and looked really familiar, then they both got into the car."

"Familiar? Grandma knew it would be like this. You, why did you reject Ricky's proposal at that time? Now you regret it, right?"

"Yeah... I don't really regret it, Bella doesn't really have any feelings for Ricky!"

"Bella, feelings are not important. When you get married, you will also love your husband. Grandma is sure, it won't be difficult to love a man like Ricky. He's rich and handsome again!"

"Okay, just leave it alone...!"

"Just leave it alone? You were the one who was enthusiastic about telling Grandma about this problem. Grandma thought you were sorry and wanted to steal Ricky's attention again, but it turned out to be just like this!"

Bella was silent, she felt strange about herself. His annoyance when the two of them were together was no more than the annoyance he previously felt when his father paid more attention to his wife and stepchildren.

"So, what do you want to do now? Who is the candidate you want to introduce? Is he rich or not? Maybe it's just an ordinary man, you can just leave him alone, Bella. If you reject Erick's son's proposal because of you I already have a boyfriend, at least he has to be richer than the Martin family. Otherwise, Grandma will force you to get closer to Ricky, do you understand?" Grandma explained as she left Bella alone in her room.

Bella took a deep breath, tears flowing again. Seeing Diana's happiness was the thing he hated most in his life.

"Why is Diana always the happy one? Why is it always her?"
