Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

Steylla looked attractive even with all of the accessories she wore today. Alfin watched her from top to bottom with satisfaction.

"As usual, you look beautiful for today," Alfin said honestly and meant to compliment Steylla.

But instead, it failed because Steylla actually considered his words as a satire for her.

Continued to stare at Reihan. And vice versa. Steylla was swinging her hand in front of him again to ask for her belonging back.

"Return the things I left behind. And please, don\'t waste my time."

Steylla suddenly said coldly to Reihan. While Alfin caught that with a strange expression.

"Did you eat something wrong?" Alfin asked in surprise at Steylla\'s curt attitude. Steylla seems to want to bear to push Alfin away. She chose to turn around for looked at him.

"Can you not bother me while I\'m talking to him?" attacked Steylla with all the irritation that she held back.

Steylla looked at Reihan again and said.

"And you, can\'t you talk and move according to fulfill my wish?" said Steylla without showing her usual courtesy.

Steylla recalled the short message Reihan had sent her.

[ \'I found an object that caught my attention. ] – Reihan wrote intentionally in his message while sending a picture.

Steylla, who saw that, immediately panicked.

Saw the notification and found Reihan didn\'t block her number. Steylla read a message that piqued her curiosity. Then came across an image that made her stunned.

Why was the bracelet in there?

Thought with great confusion as she realized that the bracelet must have fallen somewhere when Steylla had accidentally stopped by at Reihan\'s cafe a long time ago.

Steylla disappointed. She shouldn\'t have accepted her friend\'s invitation to gather there because she said the cafe was quite attractive and comfortable.

Steylla cursed her bad luck that day.

Didn\'t answer the message until a few hours later. Or maybe rather ignored it.

A second message came back into her cellphone accompanied by another message that had been bothering her lately.

[ \'Is Steven with you? ] – wrote Alfin, asking about her brother for some reason instead of her.

Steylla only replied to the message briefly.

[ \'I don\'t know. Because I\'m not pocketing him.] – Steylla then sends it to Alfin.

After that just read the second message from Reihan that actually entered her inbox first. However, Steylla preferred to read Alfin\'s message first. Steylla fell silent as she read a message from him.

[ \'Isn\'t this the bracelet I gave you? Why are you still keeping it? ] – wrote Reihan with a series of words that were easy for him to write but were difficult for Steylla to received. Steylla was incredibly depressed. Didn\'t expect that Reihan actually recognized the bracelet.

Yes. The antique bracelet was indeed given by Reihan because Steylla begged him to buy it for her.

Steylla should just keep the memorable things in her closet and did not take them out.

Knew that Reihan might think badly if he saw it and it turned out to be true. Reihan sent her a third message.

[ \'Do you still like me? ] – asked Reihan in his short message.

Steylla immediately put her phone on the bed. And slapped her head carelessly. It was already ten o\'clock at night but the guy wanted to disturb her and make it hard for her to sleep?

Annoyed, embarrassed, and sad of course, all mixed together when she managed to make her former first love tease her with satisfaction and of course laugh with satisfaction when he thought about all the possibilities that he wrote in his message.

Steylla seemed to want to grab her hair tightly. Then caught her breath. Steylla did some hand exercise as she started to want to reply to the message. But only when she wrote a word or two and hadn\'t even thought about exactly what she was going to write.

The fourth message returned to her cellphone.

[ \'Why didn\'t you reply? Are you asleep? Or are you afraid to reply to my messages?" ] – asked Reihan with insistence and read excitedly.

Was he so out of work right now that he sent her a bunch of messages that she hadn\'t replied to but he had been sending follow-up messages to?

Steylla then replied to the message quickly.

[ \'I don\'t understand what you\'re asking. What bracelet and where\'s the proof if it\'s mine? I don\'t feel like I\'m missing anything. ] – wrote Steylla with the fastest typing speed.

In less than 10 seconds Reihan had replied to her message.

[ \'Is it true? ]

[ \'Yes ]

Steylla replied curtly. Then the reply message came less than a minute later. Reihan sent her a picture again, showing the inside of the bracelet.

Steylla Detriana\'s name was clearly engraved in an embossed form on the gold-colored glass. Steylla patted her head in annoyance

Knew that she could not lie anymore and the real evidence was in front of her eyes that the bracelet was hers.

Steylla tried to think quickly. She kept racking her brain until half an hour later she just replied to Reihan. Steylla didn\'t care if Reihan was laughing at her at that time. She replied to the message with a heavy heart.

[ \'Ah, you\'re right! Looks like it\'s mine. How did you get that thing? ]

Replied Steylla politely but pretended.

Should she block the number too? After all, the bracelet would also become a trash skeleton from which all the jewels gathered. Until it can only be a disgrace to her because the bracelet was authentic evidence that she had been rejected many times by one man.

Steylla of course wanted to bury it deep. But didn\'t realize that the bracelet was still tucked away in her bag like a talisman without her wanting it.

Reihan replied to Steylla\'s message after a minute had passed.

Wasn\'t today\'s message was the record for the fastest man that sent her a reply? Especially when she remembered about Reihan who had never wanting to reply to her messages if he wasn\'t forced to a few years ago.

Steylla would have bloomed at that time if Reihan treated her the same way. Then assumed that it was just her imagination and also a part of her past. Steylla certainly will not show her weak side again for this time.

She read Reihan\'s message again when she was getting sleepy.

[ \'You dropped it when you visited here. Did you do it on purpose? ] –Reihan wrote unexpectedly.

Steylla was wide-eyed.

What? What did he write?

Steylla re-read the contents of the message and was sure she had read it correctly.

"Reihan said that I purposely wanted to drop the bracelet in his place?"

Steylla lightly hit her chest. Was he kidding?

The drowsiness disappeared in an instant. Although it could not be denied that she might also be sleepy again.

[ \'Are you kidding? ] – wrote Steylla without adding politeness in her message. Because she already no longer cared about the manners which didn\'t she needed for now.

Reihan replied to her messages quickly but relaxed.

[ \'I was just estimating it. If it\'s not true, so alright. So is it true? ] – wrote Reihan with all the casualness of his writing style.

Seemed to want to throw her cellphone far away when she read the irresponsible message. Steylla forced herself to stop pulling the veins. Being neutral again and behave appropriately and relaxed about what to reply to.

[ \'I didn\'t remember the bracelet was still on me and I didn\'t know it fell out of my bag. I was purely unintentional. } – Steylla deliberately put emphasis on some of her writings which when someone reads it, will certainly have a clear meaning.

Steylla tried hard not to change the writing in her message to deliberately make it capital letters and even bold.

Reihan certainly understood what she meant even though she didn\'t do that.

Steylla then asked for the bracelet to be returned to her, if she met her brother and asked Reihan to leave it to Steven. But Reihan actually asked Steylla to take it by herself.

[ \'I can\'t give this precious thing to anyone. So if you want to take it you can come to my place. ] – Reihan wrote pretty long and they were still texting each other like close friends.

This was their first experience. Steylla quite objected to his decision.

[ \'But he is my brother! So there will be no problem! ] – wrote Steylla with all the patience she had left.

Reihan had actually been chuckling with satisfaction when he could keep pestering Steylla. Women who had now changed not only physically but also verbally. Steylla was now much more polite and good at restraining herself so Reihan was quite proud of her.

Just realized that a person can grow up over time and of their own will, maybe even if due to the demands of the circumstances. Reihan seemed to think that he would get along well with Steylla this time.

Reihan began to decide to accept the woman maybe as his sister too. Because he was an only child and had no experience of being an older brother. But that was not a problem because Reihan can try it.

Steylla finally decided to come alone by force to Reihan\'s place. Reihan smiled in satisfaction when he saw her annoyed face. He knew that she didn\'t really want to come to see him because so far their relationship had not been good.

"So you actually came to pick up what you said wasn\'t yours, but turned out to be yours?" Reihan quipped deliberately while hiding his amused feeling because he had teased Steylla.

Steylla felt her ears turn red. She cursed at the gold colored object that she should have thrown away a long time ago.
