On the way back home, Eren and I didn't talk too much. He's just driving and looking straight only. I'm sorry that he was disappointed but I think I didn't do anything wrong. When he stopped in front of Aunty Mary home, there is a big crowd and also police men. I was so surprised and run into home. When Aunty Mary see me, she come and hug me, crying and saying that my sister Lucy just died according to a car crush. I was really shocked when I heard this. I forget Eren and hug Aunty Mary back. I asked what happened exactly but no voice is clear for me at the moment. While Adam (Lucy's boyfriend) come and explain me, I found out that it could not be an accident. He assisted that that was on purpose and mentioned a name called Sarah who always hate Lucy because she wants Adam. I just can't say a word so I went to my room and sat on the bed without moving for several hours. When my alarm ringing, I realized that's already morning. I called my manager to give me a day break so that I can calm down. Adam also came early to us.

“ Bella, how is aunty Mary? ”

“ She just don't come out. ”

“ Then I'll talk to her. ” 

I pushed him and shouted at him.

“No, you talk to me! ” 

He moved his step back and hold my hands gently.

“ Hey, it's ok. It's ok. What do you want me to say? ”

“ Why police close the case? ”

“ Because in here, the law is them. No one on them. ”

“ Who? ”

“ Sarah's family. ”

“ Tell me about that bitch, Sarah! ”

“ There is a guy here called Eren. He is the richest youth in international. He's Sarah's brother, who makes the rules here. The murders are uncountable, even for Sarah it's just a mistake, they will just say that and give a lot money to the station. It will be really hard to say no to them even police. So, yes since Sarah is his sister, she will be free by this. No proff. No evidence. What can you do Bella. You can do nothing right. ”

“ How long have they been doing this? ”

“ For hundred of years Bella, their grand grandfather was the Mayor of the city since the last danasty. That's why no one can beat them. They are cruel enough to stop the invasion. So, what can we do? ”

“ We can take revenge then. ”

“ Stop being nonsense, Bella ”

Aunty Mary run to me and said. 

“ But Lucy didn't die for nothing. ”

I said. 

“ Yes. You know she died. That's mean I have only you now. Beside, there is no chance to close to them. ”

She replied.

“ But Eren proposed me yesterday. ”

“ What??? ”

Both of them shouted and shocked. 

“ Yes, but I said no. ”

“ Tell me exactly what happened! ”

Aunty Mary asked me. I explained all the matters and I asked her permission to take that as a chance. But she said she needs a time to think of it and let Lucy's funeral goes first. After the funeral, I was sitting on a bench in the cemetery alone. But what an accident, Eren shown up in front of me.

“ I'm sorry to hear that, Bella. Are you ok? ”

“ No! No, I'm not ok. She's the only sister I have. She's my best friend, best sister. Now, she died. The police can't even take action. No evidence, no proof, we don't even know who is the killer. ”

“ Hey, calm down. I swear I'll tell you if I find him or her l, ok? I guess you know me now, right? May be I can help you. ”

He said gently by grabbing my hands but all I feel was he is trying to avoid from the suspect list. I said nothing but hug him tight enough and cried saying how lonely I am now. He hug me back and made me feel ease with him. Been a while, we stopped hugging and he asked me what will l do next.

“ I don't know Eren, I have only one job and one home rental price but that's all for my Mom. How could I take responsibility for Aunty Mary now? She is a good housewife but don't even know about the papers and files. Lucy took responsibility for her since Dad passed. I'm so confused right now. ”

“ Well, I think you have one way out. ”

“ What? How? ”

I asked him. He looked straight to my eyes and said...

“ You can marry me. ”

I was so pleased because I wanted him to say it. But I pretend not interesting about that. 

“ Are you kidding me? I'm not in a good mood, Eren. ”

“ Well, I'm afraid. It's not. It's true Bella, you should think of it. Both your mom and aunt will get a good care, enough money. Also you can live in a life you want. ”

“ But you don't love me and so do I. ”

I answered him. He sighed and said...

“ You won't believe me. I like you. I really am. I don't know I love you deeply or not. But I like you truly. You're different from other girls. Beside, I have to marry for my own reasons so, if I have to marry now, I want only you to be my bride. Trust me, I want to take time as you like but I'm now running out of time. ”

“ Why? ”

“ My grandma is dying. She has only two months left. Everyone wants me to get married now. If I didn't find you, I probably will have to marry my sister from different parents now. ”

“ Sister from different parents? ”

“ She's my stepmom's daughter not with my father. I'll explain later but what will be your answer, Bella? ”

“ I don't know, Eren. I'm so confused. ”

“ Look! I promise. I won't hurt you. Even we marry so fast, I'll take time to get close. You can take time as much as you want. If it doesn't work, if you want to stop our relationship, you can get divorce with me. I wish it work. Because I don't want to lose you. It's too soon for me to say I love you but trust me I don't know what's that all I feel is I want to spend my life with you. ”

“ Sounds like you really love me, but I don't believe you ”

I told him and try to left him but he pulled my wrist and said...

“ When I met you for the first time, you was wearing a white shirt and jeans pants but you looked so natural and grace. Every girls wants my attention but you, you only care about the contract. After giving me, you just left me behind and don't even took a single look to me. I was curious about you so I asked my assistant to find all the facts about you. Your ex boyfriend, best friend, family, job, home, hobbies, everything about you. I took two weeks to show up for you because I don't know what to say. I've never been take more than 5 minutes to take a girl to the hotel but you, I feel difficult, afraid, worries. I don't know what's that but that's how I feel about you. ”

I feeled like he's saying the truth. But do I care? That's how I exactly wants him to be. The more he loves me, the better chance I get to take revenge for Lucy. I looked to his eyes and said...

“ It's ok. ”

“ What's that means? ”

“ It's ok to marry you. ”

“ Really? No joking, Bella. ”

I nodded.

He hugs me and kissed my forehead. That's made my my heart beats came faster. I couldn't pretend about that. But sadly when I looked at him, I saw Lucy's face. My heart beats became normal back and hate him again. He noticed that but he thought I was sad about Lucy not hate him. He cuddle me and said...

“ I'm sorry. I forgot it's a cemetery. I'll take you tomorrow evening to my home for dinner. Everyone in my home wants to know the girl on my mind. ”

“ Fine. ”

I answered him and left him behind. When dinner time came, Aunty Mary, Adam and I having a dinner and I told them about Eren. At first they refused me. But I told them whether they like it or not I'll do that so, they asked me to tell everything no matter what happened and take a good care of myself.
