Misinterpreted

At first, I thought Hakim already knew about the play I was playing with Axel. Hearing the words he said to me just now made me remain silent. I did not think at all that it would immediately be known to him. I tried to pretend I did not know what he was telling me so he could tell me what he knew.

What do you mean? I asked in a trembling voice. My brother just stared without explaining anything to me. He also asked to leave his room immediately. I could not do anything but obey his words. I flinched for a moment, then left him while staring quietly. My brother did not want to look at me at all.

Will my charade be exposed this quickly? Is it possible that the father has guess is wrong? I said wondering to myself as I walked towards the room. All night, I kept thinking about it to the point that it was difficult for my eyes to close. Without realizing it, it was morning again and I still had not found any answer that might make me feel calm.

Again, that morning, my brother did not join us for breakfast. My mother and father looked as usual, and there was no change at all in their body movements and speech. I felt that it seemed like my brother had not conveyed anything to the two of them. I took another deep breath.

What's wrong with you? Is there a problem at the office? My father asked me. No, it is nothing. Just feeling a little tired. I answered. How is your relationship with Axel? I see he never took you home. Did not you two meet again after dinner that time? My mother said suddenly. What? That's– Mm– because he's a busy mom. We're fine, I said.

Before my mother asked any more, I decided to immediately go to work. I think it seems like I have misunderstood my sister, and I think my sister probably doesn't want to tell my parents because they seem very happy. After all, I have a boyfriend. "Ah, never mind. I'll think about it again later. I have to focus on work. "I muttered while encouraging myself.

When I arrived at the office, I received a parcel. I'm still wondering who sent the parcel. Even though I didn't order anything at all from the marketplace where I usually shop online.

The gift looks very luxurious. a Large pink box wrapped in a red ribbon makes the box look beautiful. When I opened it, it turned out to be a white evening gown that looked very elegant. I also found a letter in it. I took it and read it.

"This time, it is your turn to play your role. Come tonight to the Lapizza restaurant wearing this dress at seven in the evening. Signed Axel." 

I didn't expect that Axel would send me a dress. While, I haven't told him where my office is. At the office, no one knows about my relationship with Axel. I was worried whether Axel was secretly trying to find out about me by ordering someone to spy on me.

"Ah, never mind, Summer, don't think too much" I said to myself.

It's time to go home from work. It was already six in the afternoon. I Think I still have time to buy shoes to complement the dress I will wear later. Because there is no way I can wear the shoes I am wearing now because they are too ordinary for this extraordinary dress. I realized that it looked like Axel was going to take me to a grand meeting because I would be at the most luxurious Italian restaurant. And I don't want to appear to embarrass him in public.

I approached a department store that was close to the office, and after I got it, I looked for a salon to do my hair. And finally, Everything was finished. I rushed to the location. With a luxurious white dress and high heels that I had just bought, I drove my car, even though it was Very Difficult but I didn't have much time left.

There was a traffic jam on the road, and it took quite a long time. I arrived at the location fifteen minutes late from the previously specified time. First of all I controlled my breath, which was panting after jogging. Just imagine, in high heels, I run to the restaurant because I don't want to be late. When I arrived in front of the restaurant, I was greeted by a waiter who asked if I had a previous reservation. I also mentioned Axel's name. Then the waiter took me to the table in the name I mentioned earlier.

The restaurant looks so luxurious and magnificent. I saw that the visitors who came were from the upper class. Even the men almost all wore suits makes me cringe even more. "Look at this restaurant it looks like he's going to take me to meet his colleagues. He does seem like a Very Rich person." I muttered as I walked following the servant who guided me.

I arrived at a table where Axel and a middle-aged man and woman stood to welcome me. Axel seemed to smile when he saw my arrival. I saw another side of Axel that I previously saw when he came to my house. "Are these his parents?" I said to myself. " Sorry, I'm late. Who are they?" I asked in a whisper to Axel. "My parents," Axel answered briefly.

I immediately smiled while shaking hands with both of them. They then asked me to sit down, and to my surprise, Axel pulled out a chair for me to sit in. He looked like a man who had good manners. Axel then introduced me to his parents. He told them that I was his future wife.

I immediately widened my eyes and looked at Axel. It seemed like his parents looked as surprised as I was. I never thought I would be introduced like this in front of his parents. It's true according to the contract we agreed on, but I didn't expect that he would introduce me in this way. And it was too to the point in My opinion.
