AMANDA
Two years ago, there lived a beautiful woman called Amanda. In fact, she was the most beautiful woman in Bandung city, but she was still single. She had one brother and two sisters.
Because of her beauty, many men wanted to marry her. Unfortunately, she always refused the men who proposed to her.
The first man was Paul – he had a crush on Amanda. Paul was very ugly, but he didn’t care. He said to himself, “I wanna sweep her off her feet.” One day he asked Amanda to go to the movie. He said, “Do you wanna go to the movie with me?”
Amanda was too nervous and said, “I’m sorry – I can’t. I want to focus on my job right now – I just need space.”
Paul was hurt since he knew Amanda didn’t love him.
However, he didn’t give up. He stalked Amanda everywhere. Amanda became scared. One night Paul broke into Amanda’s house. Amanda was shocked and said, “No, you are too excessive – get lost! ”Paul ignored her. Amanda finally called the police, and Paul was jailed for three years.
Ariel was the next guy who wanted to marry Amanda. He met Amanda at a party and hit it off. Amanda accepted Ariel as her boyfriend.
They had been dating for 366 days. Ariel was a famous singer in Indonesia. In addition to his expert in creating songs, he was charismatic. He liked singing romantic songs for Amanda.
But there was a problem. The problem was Mr. Jack, Amanda’s father, didn’t allow their relationship. He always scolded Ariel every time he came. He really insisted on separating Ariel and Amanda. Ariel and Amanda became more, and more frustrated. They didn’t want to break up, but they could do nothing.
