Chapter 7:Bali (2) (2/2)
”Sorry for taking a long time,” said Carolina when she approached Andrew who greeted her from the front seat of the car.
”Hi Vera,” said Carolina when she opened the back door of the car and found Vera there too. Vera just nodded and returned to busy with her cellphone.
”Where are we next?” asked the driver who drove the car.
”We just go straight to the airport, sir!” Andrew replied.
”Ndre, Rara and Riko said they were already on the road,” said Vera suddenly.
”Oh yeah, Dion as well as he said he's already on the road,” replied Andrew who occasionally glanced at Carolina.
”By the way, happy birthday!” said Vera.
”Happy birthday,” said Carolina too.
”Yes, thank you guys,”
”By the way, the place will be near the beach or not Ndre? I haven't been to Bali yet,” said Vera, who looked enthusiastic.
”Yeah, we can stop by the beach to watch the sunset, Carol, have you been to Bali?” Andrew asked, turning around looking at Carolina who was sitting right behind him, while Vera sat behind the driver.
”Not yet, I've only seen the sun set several times, because my home is near the beach,” said Carolina.
”In the village, huh?” asked Vera.
”Yes, in the city center it is near the sea but there is no beach, Vera, so my home is in the village,” replied Carolina with a smile. Vera just sneered and then returned to busy with her cell phone.
”I see, maybe sometime we can vacation at your place, Carol,” said Andrew. However, Vera and Carol realized something was different from what Andrew said.
”I rarely go out, though. So I don't know which good tourist spots are in Manado,” said Carolina honestly. During high school and when she came home during college holidays, she rarely went out or traveled. So she doesn't really know a good place in her hometown.
”Oh I see, we can search it on the internet and you can be the guide,” said Andrew then started browsing on the internet.
Hearing that, Vera looked at Andrew then looked at Carolina. Carolina who felt Vera's gaze stared back at her.
”Why?” said Carolina silently.
Vera was silent then looked back at the cell phone screen.
”Suspicious, have they been together, huh?” Vera thought, sensing something fishy between Andrew and Carolina.
Meanwhile, Carolina is also busy staring back at her cell phone screen. She was used to Vera's cold and snippy attitude so she didn't really bother. Even though she was a little curious why that woman treated her like that.

”Noona, is this really okay?” Ethan asked. At this time he and Mi Sun were in a car heading towards the airport.
”Alright, take it easy. but you have to come back Monday, okay? You have a shoot on Tuesday. Ah, seriously, why don't you dye your hair first? It is so bright red!” said Mi Sun who noticed Ethan's appearance. Despite wearing a mask and sunglasses, his red hair looks striking.
”It can't be helped, my hair is in a contract!” said Ethan, who did not dye his hair black because he was bound by a contract with the drama he was currently starring in.
”I thought it would be like this, try there you see the bag at the back” said Mi Sun, who is currently driving her private car.
”Ooo ~, noona ~, as expected from my noona,” said Ethan with a smile and put on the hat from the bag.
”Already there, remember! No matter what happens you have to take the Monday flight! Don't attract attention, it could be bad if there are paparazzi taking your photos, especially if there are articles that appear,” Mi Sun warned while checking Ethan's appearance occasionally.
”But is this really okay? What if the company is looking for me?” asked Ethan, completely unsettled.
”I told you it's okay. You have visited auntie, take care of your company well, come back to Korea on Monday, and most importantly, don't make trouble! Go ahead, before you miss your flight! ” said Mi Sun once again.
”Yes, everything will be fine, Bali here I come ~” thought Ethan, finally getting out of the car and stepping into the airport feeling excited and worried.
