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
The sound of banging on the door sounded so loud in Dave's apartment. Although the house had a bell, Arjuna had absolutely no intention of pressing it. He prefers to do this. This way, Dave would be out straight away. Initially, Lia scolded Arjuna, thinking he was being rash. However, after Arjuna also scolded her, the girl finally decided to say yes. He himself was ordered to look after Aini while he lived in the house. If there is a shortage, Arjuna will be ready to bear it. No matter how loud the sound Arjuna made, or how long he banged, no one answered his voice. Annoyed, Arjuna kicked the door. Now he doesn't care if his actions damage the object. He wanted to talk directly to the person he called a friend. How could someone he trusted so much behaving like this? The annoyance inside Arjuna could no longer be accommodated. The noisy action created by Arjuna that afternoon made his neighbors feel annoyed and called the apartment guard. The man, who was almost fifty, seemed to be
