Chapter 29 - Game Of Finding Love

Bryana and Dean enjoyed the party atmosphere while drinking red wine, eating the snacks provided and occasionally they chatted with Soraya's friends who Bryana also knew.

And so you know, the beautiful woman was very confident in recognizing Dean as her lover rather than always being teased for not remarrying after two years of widowhood. Dean, who was recognized as a lover, was flattered and didn't mind at all. because for him, tonight all his hopes to be side by side with Bryana seemed to come true even if only for a few moments.

After about an hour of chatting, the MC announced that the game "Finding Love" was ready to start. several maids distributed masks to male guests who were willing to take part in the game. Most of those who participated were men who did not have a lover and those who had a lover continued to test how much they knew their partner so that they could find their lover among the same figure of masked men.

"Dean, how about we come to join this game? Who knows, we will get a match," Bryana said with a smile, her heart beating with hope, hoping Dean would join the game.

"What if someone's boyfriend picks me up? I'll feel bad." Dean looked anxiously, while the maid had already put the mask on his table.

"This is just a game to excite this party, don't worry," Bryana shouted and then got up from the chair and took the mask, then put it on Dean's face. Man, is she impatient or something? Dean hasn't even said he would. Ugh, that beautiful woman is so excited.

Dean swallowed his saliva and could only surrender when Bryana put a mask over his face. He felt his defenses were about to crumble even further. 'Her hands were so soft touching my face, her fragrance was intoxicating. Oh my God, please control me!' his mind was in torment.

"You will come and I will also join this game. Who knows, we might find our love," Bryana said with a sweet smile.

"I'll be there now," said Dean while pointing to the many men who were standing randomly wearing the same mask.

"I'll be there too," Bryana replied, pointing at the many women who looked enthusiastically prepared to choose their partner among the many men wearing similar masks. The MC has even randomized their location so that it is not easy for couples to find their partner.

After a few minutes of preparation and the MC gave the direction that after finding a partner they were obliged to dance, the game began accompanied by Toulouse's song "No Running From Me", which seemed to add to the festive atmosphere of the party.

Bryana started walking down the many men who were standing staring at her. There were so many men there, in their 50s and it made her dizzy, and had a hard time finding Dean. She had to move fast because another woman might pick Dean up ahead of her.

'Jeez, where is he? a lot of participants and all almost the same?' Bryana said to himself as she continued to glance at the men who had not been selected.

Until almost a few minutes, many women have managed to find their partners. Some were infected by a partner and they laughed together. Bryana is still looking for Dean among the men who are still not selected.

'Oh my God, where is he? I want him to be my soul mate, give me a clue where he is?' thought Bryana getting anxious because she had not yet found Dean, because all the men looked flat as if they did not want to be found out before opening the mask.

Bryana glanced at the woman she didn't like who was also following the game. She is Kareen. who was also confused about finding the right man.

'Is she looking for Dean too? I have to hurry. ' Bryana tries to remember how Dean's perfume looks or smells.

"If I find Dean, he'll dance with me and I'll confess my feelings to him tonight," Kareen whispered as she continued to glance at the men wearing masks. She and other women are confused looking for their partners.

Until the song played by Taylor Swift and Zayn has changed, entitled "I don't wanna live forever" there are still about 20 men who have not been selected and there are still 16 women who are still trying to vote. The MC also asked them to vote faster because time was running out.

Bryana stood up and looked at the masked man who seemed to be looking at her too. She came closer and inhaled the scent of her perfume similar to that of Dean's. She glanced in the other direction where Kareen was about to approach the man.

"No, Kareen can't get Dean!" she exclaimed to herself and took a quick step toward the man she believed was her beloved bodyguard.

Dean was pounding even more when he saw Bryana walking over to him. He glanced the other way where Kareen also walked over to him. The man swallowed his saliva and trembled even more because he would be chosen by two women who were close to him. He also closed his eyes and could only surrender who would choose him.

Bryana took a step faster and immediately grabbed the hand of the man she confirmed was Dean. Kareen who was first could only be silent and chose to grab the other man's hand which is located a few meters from the man Bryana's chose. The other women too had found their choice and seemed curious about who they were going to dance with.

'Jeez, Jill chose me? could that mean she is my soul mate! No, this is just a game and maybe she will laugh or be disappointed because he has chosen the wrong guy like me,' thought Dean pessimistically. His body trembled when he felt Bryana's fingers gripping her hand tightly. he also could not understand that he would dance with his beautiful and sexy mistress.

Bryana smiled with satisfaction and was sure that the man who was now in her choice was Dean. The scent of perfume and stocky body and hairstyle matched that bodyguard. she also pulled him to the center of the ballroom with the women who had found their choice but had not yet removed their masks.

"Hey, Ladies, please take off the male mask of your choice," exclaimed the MC who was a handsome man wearing a black tuxedo suit.

Before removing the mask of the man she chose. Bryana closed her eyes and prayed. 'Oh my God, I hope he is dean.'

Dean was silent staring at Bryana who was closing his eyes. 'You must be disappointed because you made the wrong choice. You even seem like you're hoping to find a soul mate through this game. Or .... or you just chose me on purpose,' thought Dean anxiously, waiting for Bryana to take off his mask
