22. Accident

That's right, today is exactly eight years since the accident took place. The accident that changed Adeeva's life a hundred and eighty degrees for the better. Adeeva admits that her life after being free from her parents is better many times over. Even though she sometimes regrets her memory, it is Yudhisthira who disappears, the girl tries to learn from it.

"Did you miss the accident while digging up information about me?" Yudhisthira's voice made the girl realize. Iris caught Yudhisthira who was leaking blanks into the street.

The girl hid herself from the perfect clenched fist, trying to hold back the pain in her heart. He's cold when it comes to remembering the day. The day the two men tortured Aseeva cruelly. And also the day he lost Yudhisthira.

The accident was in Adeeva's mind, she could faintly hear the sound of a truck and a heavy crash on her body. There is a wound in him when he remembers it.

'No, I know the accident better than anyone.' Adeeva thought.

The girl smiled now, hiding her pain. "Yes, I seem to have missed something important. What is it? Why did you have to stop it? Is it that important, sir?"

Yudhisthira's eyes flashed into the cloudy sky, dreaming of everything above everything that felt satisfying at this time of downfall.

"Just an ordinary accident, nothing important." Yudhisthira answered confidently.

Adeeva's heart throbbed in pain as the word 'not important' slid smoothly from the lips that kissed her. Did Yudhisthira really have no desire to get his memories back?

***

Today Yudhisthira returned to his family's mansion. His father invited Yudistira to have dinner together, although Yudistira firmly believed that this was just a cover to introduce Yudistira to the son of his father's co-worker.

Yudhisthira, dressed in an all-black formal setting, walked along the corridor, followed by several employees. Then his smile widened when he saw someone he missed standing at the end of the corridor. Yudhisthira arrived at his steps to meet the person.

"Why not tell me, Evan!" Greet Yudhisthira while being carried by the man above.

"Sorry sir," the man who Yudhisthira called Evan bowed respectfully.

Evan Briantama, a 25 year old adult man, is Yudistira's right hand man. He always manages all Yudhisthira's affairs from company matters to personal matters. During these two months, Evan ordered Yudhisthira to oversee the construction of a new hotel in Sakura, Japan.

Yudhisthira came a little closer, whispering to Evan to meet him after dinner. "Meet me at the penthouse after dinner, and report everything you find about it."

After saying that, Yudhisthira walked back to the dining room located close to the family's indoor swimming pool. Her irises could see Father, Mother, Mbak Adenia, and her husband getting ready there. Of course, Yudhisthira was late because he had to take Adeeva to her apartment.

"Good night, Mother!" Yudistira kissed his mother's cheek affectionately then chose to sit in front of Adenia.

"You didn't say hello to Dad?" Bambang Adyatama was surprised because Yudistira only greeted Clarina, Yudistira's biological mother.

"No need, unless Father wants to buy a new car for Yudhisthira." Yudhisthira replied. The man loosened his suffocating tie. Their family is a family that has many rules. They can freely express themselves as they please, unlike other wealthy families in general.

"You have your own money, why ask Daddy to buy it?" Mr. Adyatama cannot allow his son to have property continuously even though he already has his own property.

"No need to argue, let's buy it later, dear? Just send a photo of the car you want to Mother," Mr. Adyatama immediately replied to his wife's words, he felt that Clarina was too indulgent for Yudistira. "You spoil him too much, honey."

Clarina Adyatama, a woman with light brown hair that matches her eyes. Clarina's beauty is clearly seen declining in Adenia, who is the ideal type of men. Clarina's loving and caring nature always accompanies her child's life journey. Adenia and Yudhisthira never lacked buying affection. The woman succeeded in educating them to be responsible and well-mannered people.

"It seems that Yudhisthira has to get married quickly so he won't be spoiled, Mama." With a different Yudhisthira calling Clarina as Mother, Adenia calling her Mama.

Yudistura glared at Adenia, just look at her sister who encouraged her mother to immediately marry her off. "Miss!"

"You're right dear, that's why father asked you to come to this dinner. We will have guests, the future wife of Yudhisthira." Clarina said.

Yudhisthira was sharply annoyed, the look in his eyes was visible, he didn't like what he heard.

"Is it Mbak Adenia who proposed a cheap promo like this?" Ask Yudhisthira.

Adenia felt innocent by her sister, "I'm too busy to take care of your matchmaking. Just counting the days I will get married,"

"Besides, since when did you call me Ma'am?"

Yudhisthira just realized it. As he remembers, he always calls Adenia as sister, who knows when calling Ms. is more comfortable in choice.

They couldn't continue to help the husband and wife along with a younger looking woman from the main corridor. Yudhisthira looked at him lazily, he was already quite dizzy with a girl named Adeeva, now it has to be with a girl who even seems to have just graduated from high school.

"Welcome Antonio, welcome Hera." Clarina warmly welcomed Antonio's family, even hugging Hera. Yudistira could guess that Hera was one of her high school friends. Surely the reason for this matchmaking is because of a friendship, tsk! Assalamualaikum.

"Come sit down and join us," said Mr. Adyatama, then they shook hands with Adenia, Axel, and finally Yudistira.

The woman sat right beside Yudhisthira. Her short skirt was deliberately teasing her. Yudhisthira was disgusted, his parents' choice was never right. Women who are betrothed to Yudhisthira are almost all paid women. Whether it's a supportive nature or a trait that suddenly appears with it.

"Congratulations on your marriage, Adenia." Hera said.

"Thank you, introduce him to be my future husband, his name is Axelious." Axel smiled respectfully as he accepted their outstretched hand.

"You guys are very compatible even though you are arranged for an arranged marriage, maybe Yudistira and Fania will also be like that," the sentence that came out of Antonio's mouth made Yudistira choke on his own saliva. So, this young woman beside him is called Fania? Don't they have the brains to match such a young girl to him.

"Sorry, but that won't happen. I am very strict about this matchmaking, especially since your child is still very young. I have permission first because there are important matters," Yudistira stood up, then bowed respectfully. Just about to leave the dining table, his father's orders made Yudhisthira silent again.

"Sit back, we have agreed on this matchmaking. You will be engaged at Adenia's wedding,"
