About the Heart

You're a surprise to me

Today, there is nothing special in the office. Time just passed, each of us struggling with work that must be completed immediately. No important conversation breaks the silence. Until lunch, I spent with Maya and Mas Rendra as usual. I have to be brave, to be a witness to their love again. Being a mosquito repellent, pest medicine, even drug panu I no longer care about it.

"You, don't want to move into Dion's office, Sa? I feel sorry for you being so lonely" asked Mas Rendra.

"Go away, Sa! There will be no need to miss," Maya chimed in.

I'm pouting, "You're upset with me? Sorry, yeah, I'm still here. No interest in moving anywhere, including Dion's office."

"Not ngusir, Sa, but we provide the best solution." said Mas Rendra.

"Yes, Sa, you don't have to be lonely like this right now if you move to his office," Maya once again emphasized her fiance's words.

"Who is lonely? I was ready to accompany," suddenly Mr. Aryan's voice broke our chatter.

He took his lunch and sat down on the chair next to me, which was the only empty seat at our table. Without hesitation and excuse, he joined our conversation. Mas Rendra looked at each other with me and Maya. Maya and I shrugged their shoulders in an incomprehensible sign.

"Kok, so deserted? So, who's lonely?" asked Mr. Aryan after seeing us speechless.

"Rosa is lonely, sir, her boyfriend is out of town" explained Mas Rendra like to emphasize my status is no longer alone.

Mr. Aryan then looked at me and smiled, "Having a boyfriend, does not mean you can not have many friends. If your boyfriend is busy, there will still be friends who are ready to invite you to enjoy the time."

I caught no secret code behind the sentence uttered by Mr. Aryan. Although his attitude seems relaxed, I'm sure his mind is not that calm. I kind of caught Mas Rendra's message the other day "The Curse of the New Manager". Even so, I don't want to be GRan, I'm afraid to misinterpret his attitude.

"Let us be friends, so that there will be no more loneliness among us" said Mr. Aryan.

The sentence is "you guys", but I mean it narrower than that. His gaze did sweep the three of us, but I'm sure, it was actually just me who was the center point.

"All right, we're friends." Mas Rendra replied to Mr. Aryan's invitation.

Maya and I smiled. Didn't, the relationship should always be woven.Have many friends it, will always be fun, as long as you know the code of ethics.

"Darling, it's lunch, right?" dion's question after I picked up the phone.

"Yes, it was a rame-rame lunch" I replied.

"The most rame Rendra and Maya" said Dion.

I was about to open my mouth, to tell you about Mr. Aryan with us at lunch. However, that intention I broke. There were still doubts in my heart, feeling I should say right away, but I was afraid that Dion would misunderstand.

"That's for sure, honey. They even told me to move into your office" the story came out of my mouth.

"And yesterday, I was told that" Dion said.

"I'm still comfortable here," I replied rejecting it subtly.

That's how my sweet boyfriend is, that's. Love me without ever forcing. Hence, he could last ten years beside me, without certainty and only wage my fortitude. During that span of time, I was actually uncomfortable with his presence wherever I was. However, somehow also, I can still and still can accept his presence by my side.

"Di, I miss," I somehow said those words.

Imagining him always patient to hold my love, it feels lucky to make me along the way with our love frame.

"Patience, Honey. In a moment, we'll meet. Let your longing be a little excruciating, so that you can feel that you are slowly loving me." - Pinta Dion.

"Alright, I'll enjoy my longing for you," I began to sweeten with my words to her.

The phone, it closed after saying a spoiled bye-bye to me. I think I'm starting to catch Dion's bucino virus. I began not to hesitate to reply to his words of seduction, even though I was in the office. It turns out this is how it feels, when love makes its choice in the heart of a person.

*****

After work, we agreed to watch together. At first I refused, I still remember very well, how the moment in the cinema at that time. I was poisoned by the romance presented by Maya and Mas Rendra. And, I'm not a fool who would want to fall in the same hole. However, my heart melted, when Mr. Aryan volunteered to come watch with us. At least, I won't be the sole victim of the bucin virus violence of that couple of fiancees.

"What do you want to see?" Mr. Aryan reminded after we got to the office lobby.

"Marriage Order is a, yuk, a new film, based on the noveltoon by Viviani. Said my friends who have watched, good, full of romance and emotionally draining." said Maya.

"I don't come along if we watch a romantic movie, I don't want to be stuck in the situation." I refused.

"There's me" Mr. Aryan smiled smirk.

"We watch "Reply Revenge of the Village Man" if so," Mas Rendra proposed.

I feel like Mas Rendra is trying to keep my distance from me and Mr. Aryan. Watching a romantic movie will create an atmosphere that will not be predictable. I suspect that Mas Rendra does not want me and Mr. Aryan to do more.

"That's the work of Linanda Anggen, who's from Noveltoon too, right?" as if.

"Yes, we're tired of working, this hilarious movie will relax our tense muscles." Mas Rendra reasoned.

We finally agreed with Mas Rendra's proposal. However, one problem back we had to solve, with whose car we were going to leave.

Mr. Aryan suggested I go with him, while Maya would ride with Mas Rendra. Of course the proposal was not approved by Mas Rendra, he would not take the risk. Letting the two of me with Mr. Aryan, is the same as providing a smooth path for Mr. Aryan to approach me. That's what's on Mas Rendra's mind, which I can catch.

When we had not found the way out, suddenly a car stopped in front of us. A man dressed in a young gray chino-clad shirt, who was dressed in a white shirt, got out of the car.

A sweet smile fell on her beautiful lips. That sharp nose looks to add to the good looks it has.

The man walked towards me. I didn't expect to see him this time, especially now, I don't think it's the right time for us. I'm not ready to meet him yet, I can't begin how we should begin the word.

You, surprise me!
