Hendarmo loosened his tie by force. Then he put his hands on his hips and took exasperated breaths as he looked at the company's documents. Worse staff performance makes the company's finances unstable. He regretted that Niar had hired new staff and fired his old staff. If finances continue like this, thought Hendarmo, the company will collapse before it gets a helping hand from Leo's father. Ah, remembering that makes Hendarmo's head throb. Meanwhile, at home, he and Niar had a fight because Aini didn't want an arranged marriage. Niar continues to force Hendarmo to be a cruel father to Aini. On the other hand, he still loves his eldest daughter very much. But he really had no other choice but to follow what his wife said. This company must be supported before it crashes and collapses. Ah, Hendarmo didn't want that to happen. He built this company with great difficulty. So, all he could do was call Leo's father to come back to beg. lowered his self-esteem. something he really didn'
Dave looked up when he heard his name being called as the door to his room opened. Actually, without even bothering to look up, he could already guess who it was. Marissa. A girl with a tall and slender stature, like an advertising model, has a beautiful face quite suitable for that profession. However, Marissa was reluctant to work as a model. For some reason, Dave himself never wanted to ask. When he was dating Marissa, Dave knew full well that she was jealous. Dave, who is a young entrepreneur and often gets compliments from the staff as well as the children of his business partners, makes Marissa do things as if to emphasise that Dave already has a girlfriend by acting all too intimate in front of many people. Especially if there is a business partner event where Dave has to bring Marissa. So when Marissa called Dave in this kind of spoiled tone, Dave knew he was in the mood to prove himself like he used to be. though their status is no longer "boyfriend."Dave stood up and rea
Dave woke up when the clock struck eight. Because last night it was hard to sleep, so Dave reset his alarm to be later. Besides, today was Saturday, so Dave didn't come into the office. Usually, Dave spent his weekends at home or sometimes hanging out with June and Sean. After taking a shower and only wearing a white shirt that formed his athletic body, Dave left the room. He was headed for the kitchen when he heard a noise. Aini can be seen, who is struggling with the frying pan. The smell of Aini's cooking made Dave's saliva almost drip. He approached Aini who immediately made the girl almost jump in surprise. Dave laughed at Aini's ridiculous behavior, then took the spatula from Aini's hand and started stirring the fried rice in the cauldron. “Just me,” said Aini. But Dave shook his head. Seeing that, Aini started chopping onions and vegetables to make an omelette. Fifteen minutes later, two plates of omelette fried rice were placed on the dining table. Aini offered coffee and
Saturday morning is spare time for June. He used to wake up early and exercise around his housing complex. Occasionally greet each other with neighbors, then go home after feeling enough. Weekends are heaven. June always spends her time completely pure, resting. At least hang out with Dave or Sean. Without thinking about work. Like this afternoon, after returning from sports, June sat in the garden of her complex to just unwind. Then go home. June had just arrived, then cleaned herself up and brought her buttocks to sit on the sofa when Dave called her. Dave didn't usually call at this hour. Often, they only met at the usual café. So, June frowned and wondered. “Yeah, Dave?” June asked when she had tapped the green answer icon on her cell phone. “Where are you?” June asked Dave on the other end“At home. Why?” June asked with a frown still wrinkled. “I'm going there now!”Then the phone is hung up. June knew very well, there must be something that made Dave look so panicked. Cu
Ten minutes of standing waiting, finally Aini saw Dave's car coming. Dave quickly got down and approached Aini who was standing on the side of the road. “Aini,” Dave called when he was right in front of the girl. Dave's heart sank to see the cloudy look on Aini's face. Just like the weather forecast that Dave read this morning, which said it would rain this afternoon. “Dave,” Aini squeaked softly. Then hit Dave with his body, making the young man surprised for a while. Dave didn't know what had happened in there, so that Aini sobbed in his arms. He didn't care, but he was secretly grateful that Aini had chosen him to share his sorrows with. “A-yah bad,” said Aini stammered and hoarse voice. While Dave was still holding Aini, then one hand stroked the girl's head gently. Exactly the weather forecast, the clouds suddenly looked overcast. Realizing this, Dave guided Aini to get into the car. Then walked around to get into the driver's seat after previously closing Aini's passenger
Aini turned on the television to kill her loneliness tonight because Dave wasn't home. According to Dave, this business trip will take approximately two days. Dave asked Aini to provide any reports that were in the office and at home. But until now, the WhatsApp message sent by Aini has not displayed a blue checkmark indicating that the young man has read it. even though the sun had been hiding ever since. Aini then concluded that Dave was busy. If the young man had free time, Aini was sure he would immediately reply to Aini's message. Aini opened an application that has a ready-to-eat food delivery service. He chose a serving of French fries and a pizza with a new topping from the variant he used to eat when he was in college. The girl, who has never had problems with her weight, then ordered a drink to complete the calorie levels that she would consume tonight. A few minutes after waiting, a man who worked as a messenger service informed Aini that he was already in the apartment
Dave woke Juna when it was morning. He himself was finished with his suit and getting ready for the office. While the door to Aini's room was still closed tightly. Dave had not told Aini that he had come home. Dave chose to let Aini rest while he watched. Juna squinted when she saw the image of someone like Dave standing in front of her. Then the shadow went away, and Juna heard Dave's voice mumbling something because she was still very sleepy. He was sure his life had not even been collected because he seemed to see Dave. "Dave?" Juna asked herself in surprise. He got up and held his head. How could he be hallucinating when Dave was home? Or was it just a dream? she thought. Juna grabbed the cell phone that she had put on the table. Then he looked to see if there was an incoming message from Dave's number, and when he saw nothing, Juna put her phone back down. He looked towards Aini's room, and it was still tightly closed. Meanwhile, it was seven o'clock in the morning. Juna wa
Arjun's POV. ... I am Arjun. You already know that. To be honest, I feel uncomfortable sitting quietly like this, waiting for the assistant and detective I hired to keep an eye on the Hendarmo family, who are constantly suing Aini. Not to mention Dave, who has recently been getting bullied by his ex-girlfriend. I don't know how much Aini and my aunt have suffered all this time living with the Hendarmo family. I really want to sue the family, but after all, Aini is still Hendarmo's blood and flesh, and I'm sure it won't be happy if I sue her father. But, to be honest, I can't bear to see Aini, who is crying and always has red eyes, come to campus. In fact, when he was doing an internship at Dave's office without Dave telling me that Aini was crying, I always found out from my assistant. There are so many surprising things that I can't help but let them languish one by one. Niar, a widow with one child, is too wild to be a mother. The stupid Hendarmo never even knew that his wife neve
“Turn off your cellphone first,” said Marissa in a very sweet tone, she even rubbed Dave's shoulder, who was still standing beside her. What Marissa said made him frown, he also bit his lower lip as he hesitated in making this decision. What if someone looks for her while she's turned off her phone? "Why? Don't want to do it? Well, if you don't want, that's fine too. We can talk about it some other time, right?”Dave originally wanted to agree with that saying, he even felt it was the correct choice. “Then, we can meet….”“Ah, too bad you would rather not hear this. In fact, I think this info is really missed. If you're left for just one day… hm, I doubt that, Aini will be fine.” Of course, Marissa said it all to make Dave worry again. Without saying anything, Dave finally took out his cell phone and turned it off. “You …?”“Quickly say. I've done what you wanted, right? Now is the time for you to say it.” Marissa, for a moment, could only gape. He didn't quite understand Dave's words
A sweet smile was etched on Leo's face when he watched Aini who was eating voraciously. "How? Do you like the food? Does everything feel good and suit you?”Aini who heard that just nodded her head lazilyin fact, she really didn't want to eat in a place far away. However, when the first meal was served, Aini actually felt that everything tasted excellent. That feeling made him take more and more, like a person who was so hungry and had not eaten in the past few days. Indeed, it tasted that good, it's no wonder Leo also liked the food here to the point where he looked more relaxed than usual. When the only food left was dessert, Aini's face had changed quite a lot. At first, she looked a little annoyed and there was no smile on her face, but now Aini's face was radiant and filled with smile. For Leo himself, it was like happiness for him, to be able to make Aini smile broadly. When the woman raised her head and looked at Leo, she also smiled so sweetly that Leo felt like capturing it.
The wrinkles on Arjuna's forehead seem to be his trademark. The troubles he experienced seem to have no end, to the point that he thought that he had been born with a fate full of bad luck. In his chaotic thinking, Arjuna finally took a deep breath. He could see Lia who had read his message, but he still couldn't see her reply even though it had been several minutes. How could Arjuna not be worried when it was like this? Still thinking about the possible, Arjuna tapped his forehead, trying to think quickly and also make a rational decision. At a time like this, how could he make a rash decision? He could fall into the abyss if the wrong choice. Because he didn't know what to do anymore, Arjun finally choose to contact Sean, hope that his best friend could help him. He also didn't forget to send messages to Dave that the person didn't read at all. “I have to meet Lia.” The tone given by Arjuna this time showed his dominan, as if he wanted to say that, he would create a path in his lif
“Salsa why suddenly calling me again?” Lia, who was still in her office, turned off the phone with Aini not because there was a problem with her work. Instead, he gets a message from Salsa saying not to tell Aini anything and calls her back immediately. “Hello? Lia? Do you have spare time?” Salsa's voice echoed in Lia's ear. Hearing that Lia rubbed her forehead, it was obvious that Salsa's voice this time didn't sound calm at all. Did something happen to him? “Where are you now? Let me get to you.”“I'm scared, Lia.” The words were followed by vibrations, making Lia sit up straight. “Lia… you… you don't come, okay?”"What are you talking about? How can I not come if you are like that? Anyway, send your location now!”Lia's muffled groans could now be heard. He frowned and glanced around, making sure it wasn't from where he was. After confirming that the voice was from the connected phone, Lia could feel her heart beating faster and faster. He was questioning what happened to Salsa a
Aini shook her head as she was still calling Lia. Because Dave was not at the office, Aini was freer. In fact, he had just received a message saying that Aini could be free to come home at what time because it might take him a long time to return. Of course, this brought a smile to Aini's face, she immediately called Lia to tell her this. His best friend, since he knew that Aini was almost attacked, ordered him never to go alone. What Sean said the other day was true. But now, he could only take a deep breath, listening to Lia's scolding. Her best friend was like turning into an angry mother. There wasn't a moment he spent not scolding himself or Salsa. Luckily, Salsa herself was used to seeing Lia like that, so she could ignore it like there was no problem. He can also laugh like this issue is everyday food, sometimes he also supports what Lia says. "I know, I know. I'm not going home alone. Again… tonight I have an event.”“Eh? Dinner with whom? Why am I just hearing about it now?
“Quickly too,” said Marsha, who was sitting in a café with a woman, different from the two days before. Marsha's words caught Marissa's attention, she tried to peek at Marsha's cellphone only to see the screen had turned black. A squeak escaped the woman's lips before she finally sat back in her chair sweetly. “You haven't seen Dave for a long time, have you?”"Why do you know about him? I'm not in the mood to hear his name at all. Just imagine, I was kicked out of his office!” Marissa cried excitedly, or furiously. Even though he had often told this problem to Marsha, it seemed like he was still not satisfied to channel all his feelings. Marsha even smiled awkwardly at Marissa's words and actions, but chose to remain silent. “You… miss him, right? Want to meet him?” Marissa now gaped, she blinked several times to make sure what she heard was true. Marissa tilted her head, causing Marsha to take a deep breath. It turns out that having a friend like Marissa is also quite difficult. “I
Amused giggles sounded in the café that morning. A woman patted the shoulder of the man beside her, while the victim who was hit had a sour face. He was not at all happy with the attitude of the woman who did that. Marsha, who couldn't stop laughing, rubbed her eyes that were dripping with tears from laughing too much. He also didn't even feel sorry for the other diners who seemed bothered by his shrill voice, so unpleasant to the ear in the morning. “You're just making it up anyway... laughing? You're so funny.” Leo rolled his eyes lazily, he had absolutely no interest in discussing this matter. Why did he have to tell it in detail? “This is none of your business, is it? Then why are you meddling in my affairs? Don't you want to take care of that, Lia?” Marsha, who heard that, immediately, pursed her lips spoiled. He wasn't the least bit pleased with Leo's attitude, which was always like this. With a small snort, Marsha immediately folded her arms in front of her chest and fixed he
Arjuna, who doesn't usually drink, is seen in a crowded bar. While the people there seemed to be having fun, Arjuna actually looked like someone who was lost. From the drink he drank, the way he dressed, to the expression on his face. It doesn't describe the happiness there at all. It was clear that he was waiting for someone, otherwise how could Arjuna be in a place like this. After taking a look at his surroundings, a sigh escaped Arjuna before he took a sip of the juice specially made by the bartender in front of him. A look of confusion and displeasure appeared on the bartender's face. “Waiting for someone?” The softer sounding voice of the bartender startled Arjuna. She looked at the man before nodding. “Woman?” Arjuna quickly shook his head. “No, friend, a man. Colleagues too,” said Arjuna briefly, he didn't feel the need or the need to explain his relationship with Sean at all. Again, it wasn't like he was going to see the bartender again, so why was he going into such detail
“Do not come close!” cried Aini who threw her groceries at the person behind her, almost hitting the person's face. When it came to it, of course Aini would be fine now, but her suspicions were off the mark. Because he failed to hit the first person, he quickly caught Aini immediately, holding Aini's hand, so he couldn't do anything. “Who said we'd go easy on you just because you're a girl?” Aini bit her lower lip so hard that it bled, but that person still didn't care. “Even if you bite your tongue to try to kill yourself, we are fine because there are no orders to capture alive. So just do what you want.”Understanding the situation, Aini clenched her fists and ended up pressing herself against the wall, that way no one would be able to attack her from behind. They are both, but who knows if there will be another person added? The person holding Aini's arm also didn't force her to stand close to him at all, as if he already knew that Aini couldn't escape. For that reason, the two m
