last update Last Updated: 2023-04-09 15:29:56

Lia and Aini spent their lunch hour chatting together. Thanks to Lia's help, Aini really felt better. His previously confused feelings were now calm. In fact, he was able to laugh again like before. Aini is truly grateful for Lia's help. However, when they had almost finished their food, an uneasy feeling filled Aini. He also couldn't calm down.

Lia is certainly aware of this change. Aini, who was originally smiling a lot, suddenly didn't smile at all. He also seemed to be looking around like there was a problem. Realizing this made Lia pay attention to her surroundings like Aini did, she wanted to find out why she was like that. It didn't take long for Lia to realize the current issue. The gazes of the people around them clearly made Aini uncomfortable. Not only that, Lia could faintly hear what they were saying.

“Look at that girl,” said one.

“Didn't he get in the news because of that marriage thing?”

“At first, I thought things like that only happened in fictional worlds.”

    “You have to go back already?” Lia frowned and looked at Aini, who smiled a little. His feelings were not calm at all, especially when he saw his friend like that. Lia really understands that Aini is trying to endure all her pain for herself. Lia felt she could not let this happen. “Yeah, I'll have to go in soon.” I'll go first, okay?” Aini waved her hand towards Lia and said goodbye to her best friend before disappearing among the crowd of people. “Aini...” Lia said, then took a deep breath. He took a quick glance at the direction where they had eaten earlier. If they hadn't eaten out, events like today would never have happened. Guilt filled Lia; she didn't know what else to do to pay for her actions. Aini must be feeling a little scared to get out of her house. They would never stop talking about it or anything like that. Only if he could stay beside Aini all the time would he be able to protect her? When Lia was busy thinking too deeply, she was startled by the sound of someon

    Aini, who had just gone through such a big problem, could feel that she didn't have the energy to do anything. However, he didn't want to be a burden to Dave, so he just kept walking back to the office like nothing was wrong. Enough of the stares or responses the people around him had given him; he didn't want to supplement them with those who assumed it was a no-no just because he was late. A feeling of relief filled Aini when she realised she was not too late. Hence, he immediately headed to the toilet to calm himself down. He had to get back to his old self, not wanting to be seen as having a change in mood by Dave. He had already caused enough trouble for Dave; he didn't want to add to it anymore. Because of that, Aini immediately practised her smile while watching her reflection in the mirror. "That Aini," said someone from one of the booths. Aini, who was washing her hands, suddenly stopped, not at all surprised when she heard her name being mentioned.those people. However,

    "Thanks for the words," Leo said for the umpteenth time. He already did not know how many congratulations he received on his engagement to Aini. A wide smile etched on his lips never faded at all. In fact, the more people who said it, the bigger the smile he gave. “Congratulations on the engagement, sir!" I hope it lasts, OK?” said one of the workers in Leo's office. Leo nodded again before smiling. The smile is certainly not just an ordinary smile. If that happens, then it's not Leo's name. He doesn't even hesitate to give a smile full of charm that is sure to attract the attention and hearts of other women. Even though he will already have Aini, his heart cannot be mended just for him alone. For Leo, a lot of women are not to be wasted; he will use what he can to attract their attention. When Leo walked to his own room, he would pass a lot of workers. There, he deliberately greeted workers who were dominated by women. Women of various ages lined up, focused on the laptops in fron

    Even though Leo wanted to meet his soon-to-be wife, he couldn't because of the piles of work. Feelings of annoyance filled him, but he tried to hold them in. He believed that Aini would also not be happy to see him while he was still undergoing his apprenticeship. He had to find a way to make the girl melt like the other women. Furthermore, he couldn't let Aini have her own way of escaping. No matter what way, Leo will try hard to win Aini's heart, not just for himself. For Leo, it's useless to get someone, but it's not his heart that gets someone, so he will find a way to do it. He will also keep Dave away, who is always with Aini like a lost child, never separated and always interrupting the moments between the two. In fact, if only Aini would listen to him, he would not misunderstand. Everything he wanted to report always failed because Dave interfered with his time. Or his best friend—they all seem like they want to avoid giving Aini to anyone else. As if Aini only was theirs. O

    “Put on your seatbelt, or do you want me to do it?” Leo's open words made Aini hastily pull the seat belt beside him. Just being in the same car as Leo made him feel uncomfortable at all, and now he had to be treated like one. Of course, Aini felt that her day was terrible. Her mind kept going back and forth about what happened to Dave during the day; why couldn't she forget about it? He didn't need that kind of thinking at all. The more he thinks about it, the more burden he will have. In fact, just every day is too confusing. “Are you ready, honey?” Leo, without hesitation, stroked Aini's head, like the two of them were indeed a couple. “Don't touch me,” said Aini sharply. His action made Leo chuckle quite loudly, like he was pleased with the reaction he was giving. “Calm down. "Do you want people in your father's office to take a bad look at him and cancel the partnership they had agreed to?”Aini was immediately silent. He disliked his father or the choices made by his father

    “Go home to where?” Leo, who saw Aini had put her seatbelt back on, looked at the woman carefully. Their dinner went smoothly, though not much conversation took place. Leo even deliberately asked several times about their wedding reception later, such as how many people they would invite and what to prepare. At first, Aini was silent, thinking that she would return home well. Now, she could only answer in silence. Where should he return? She can't go back to Dave's apartment. It was confirmed that he would be waiting there. Just imagining when he came home already managed to make Aini feel goosebumps all over her body. Then, where should he go now? She has absolutely no place to live. She also may not go to a hotel or lodging even for one day. She didn't bring any clothes, how could he feel calm? A sigh escaped Aini's lips, but she didn't let Leo hear it. The man was still waiting for Aini to say the name of the place they were going to. Seeing Aini who never answered, a crooked smi

    “Calm down already?” Lia, who was still hugging Aini, didn't know how long she had hugged her best friend, rubbing her back. “Is it any better?”Aini, who was content to cry, nodded her head and let go of Lia's embrace, wiping her face which was full of tears. “Yes, thank you, Lia. I'm sorry too.”Lia, who heard Aini's words, immediately shook her head, saying that this was not her fault. After reassuring once again that Aini was fine, he finally started guiding his best friend to his house. Lia doesn't know what to do if she doesn't come on time. Maybe people will take advantage of it, and that is not good at all. Just imagining it already managed to bring bad breath, his whole body got goosebumps. The journey to his house was not far, so in a matter of minutes they had arrived. Lia, who is currently busy with her thesis, seems to have a messy house. Everywhere there are scattered clothes or used food. Aini was too tired to be surprised, but Lia still felt guilty. Hence, he brought

    Early in the morning, Lia was out of her house. He left a text message with Aini saying he would be out until the afternoon, only he didn't say where he was going. Of course, the place he was going to be secret, so he didn't want Aini to know. Moreover, when Aini didn't need to work that day, she said that Aini should just stay longer at her house, she herself didn't have a problem if she had friends who wanted to accompany her at home. When Lia came out, Aini seemed to be still fast asleep, surely she was tired because she had to cry for so long. I don't know how many tears he shed that night. Especially when he forced himself to tell Lia what happened to him and Dave, so that he felt that he couldn't go home. Lia, who had heard Aini's story completely, couldn't hold back her feelings any longer, so she scheduled an appointment with Arjuna that morning. “Why didn't you pick up?” Lia kept nagging when the person she called didn't pick up her phone. Though, he had almost reached thei

    “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.
