Aini's Heart Journey

Disturbances

"This?"

Aini immediately took a picture frame whose photo was being observed more carefully.

"When did Ardi take this photo?" Aini muttered confusedly.

Aini found a picture of herself laughing loosely on the white sand beach. Accompanied by a roll of small waves chasing his feet.

Aini finally smiled a little. There was an immeasurable sense of happiness in finding her picture on Ardi's desk. He did not expect, Ardi even put his picture there.

Ardi did display a photo of Aini on his desk. At the office and at home. Because from that photo, Ardi can momentarily release his longing on Aini who is far away with him. It was also a form of Ardi's love for Aini, which had not disappeared from his heart until now.

Outside the meeting room,,

"It's in Ardi's room." Rama.

"Good, Sir. I understand."

"Then I go first."

"Be careful, Sir!"

"Oh, yes. Give this to Ardi!" Rama said while giving a small velvet-lined box to Dika.

"Good, sir."

Rama soon left Dika and left Aini too. Because that is the purpose of Rama to go to Ardi's office. To drive Aini.

Dika first went to Ardi's room before returning to the meeting room.

"Sir Dika? The meeting's over?" Aini asked when she saw Dika enter.

"Yet. It's just that Mr. Rama told me. He apologized, having to leave immediately this time. One of his colleagues just called him and he needs to see him as soon as possible." Lying Dika.

Aini was silent and did not react.

"He asked you to come home with Mr. Ardi later."

Aini smiled. "Papa's just been around."

Dika also smiled with relief. He was sure, Aini understood with the intention of Rama at this time.

"All right, Mr. Dika. I'll wait for Ardi here. You can go back to the meeting room. But please, don't tell Ardi I'm here!"

"Sure, Miss Aini." Answer Dika happy.

"Thank you, sir."

"Of course, Mom."

Dika then went back to Ardi in the meeting room. And as promised, he did not tell Ardi if Aini was waiting for him in the room.

When lunchtime came, Ardi's meeting was just finished. He immediately returned to his room. But, when he almost got to his room, his phone rang. A sign a message has come in. He also opened it.

"Papa?"

Use your chances well! Before Papa really made Aini a young wife. And what's in that box, is Aini's choice.

"I seem to have to fight harder to beat papa. But, what box?" Ardi muttered while opening the door of his study.

"Sorry, Sir!" Call Dika suddenly.

Ardi delayed entering. "What's wrong?"

"This is taken from Mr. Rama. He was here to deliver it." Honestly Dika, before Ardi went into his study.

"Papa's here?"

"Yes, Sir. He's just for a minute, and leave that to you."

"Jas. Thank you." Thank you."

"Sure, Sir."

Ardi received the box and immediately saw the contents.

"Ring?"

Ardi then remembered the message from Rama earlier. He smiled slightly, as he began to understand the meaning of the message and the item he was holding.

"Thank you, Pa. I will definitely use this opportunity as best I can." Sure Ardi, while putting the box containing the ring in his pocket.

Ardi then walked into his study.

"Here?" Ardi said in shock, when he saw Aini was looking at her book collection.

Aini who had heard the door being opened from outside, was already looking at Ardi kindly.

"Can it be done, Mom?" Greet Aini.

"You,,"

"Papa brought me here earlier."

"Papa?"

Aini nodded too. He then walked to the guest chair where he had been sitting, as well as Ardi.

"Sir, there," Sela a man who suddenly walked into Ardi's study without permission.

"Oh, I have a guest apparently." Came on the man with a slightly guilty face.

He's Evan. Men are sturdy, but a little trembling attitude. His face was quite handsome, with the shirt suit he was wearing. He is a secretary for Ardi. Although his attitude looks less fitting, but his ability is very qualified in his work.

Ardi and Aini who were preparing to sit down, finally looked at Evan with a little flat.

"What's wrong? Why not knock?" Ketus Ardi suddenly.

Aini then smiled slightly hearing Ardi's tone. He believes, Ardi suddenly upset because there is someone who suddenly entered and accidentally interrupted his time.

"Sorry, Sir. The door was a little open, so I went in." Honestly Evan while grimacing a little.

Evan then glanced towards Aini. He immediately frowned.

"Sorry, Mom. Have we ever met? I've seemed to have seen you. But I forgot where." Evan is relaxed.

"Maybe it's just similar. I just went to Bandung this time." Honest Aini.

"Butii,,"

Evan was still trying to remember Aini's face that felt familiar to him. And a moment later, Evan ran a little towards Ardi's desk. He took a picture of the picture on the table. He began to look alternately at Aini and the photo.

"Same. The mother in this photo, right?" Evan without hesitation.

"More beautiful but." Imbuh Evan relax.

Aini just smiled. Not with Ardi. Ardi's face had already turned very upset at Evan. And Evan realized that.

"Ups! Sorry, Mister. I don't know if your guests are so special." Said Evan, while slowly returning the picture frame he took earlier.

Ardi just kept quiet and didn't answer.

"I'll give the meeting report to Mr. Dika only." Evan began to worry.

Evan then walked towards the door again. He really feels guilty for interrupting his boss' time with his special lady.

"Sorry, Mister, Ma! Please continue." Imbuh Evan before going out and closing the door slowly.

"Don't until the arrival of Mr. Ardi's guests spread! If other employees find out who Mr. Ardi's guests are, you'll obviously get punished." Dika Assertive.

"Come on, Mr. Dika! That's good news, right?" Relax Evan.

"Whatever! But if other employees find out, just look at what gifts you received from Mr. Ardi!"

Not without reason, Dika did that. Because if Ardi's employees find out, Aini comes to the office, there will definitely be a furore that makes Ardi dislike and will become upset because his time with Aini is a little disturbed.

When Ardi posted a photo of Aini alone, the Ardi employees were very curious about the woman's face in the photo. Especially if they know the person is coming directly to the office. They would definitely be eager to meet and see Aini's figure in person. That would obviously make the actual noise unnecessary.

Evan thought for a moment. "Okay, Mr. Dika. My mouth will lock the meeting."

"Good." Briefly Dika, who then left Evan.

"But not with my thumb." Inner Evan cengengesan.

Evan immediately grabbed his phone and made a short message in the group message his office colleagues, where Dika was not in the group. He clearly said that,,

The woman is real. Miss Ardi's candidate is already in the office.

And quickly the news spread. The Ardi employees were increasingly curious about the original figure of the photo on Ardi's desk. Because all this time, they thought the photo was not real. Because Ardi was never seen with the person in the photo.

Some employees who were preparing for lunch, for a moment postponed their meal. They choose to meet Evan and ask directly or even want to see the figure of the woman in the photo.

In front of the office room Ardi was suddenly noisy and rowdy because of the arrival of some employees who were very kepo with the figure of the woman. They confronted Evan with questions about the woman.

It was not known to Dika and Ardi. Because Dika was out buying lunch, Ardi was clearly enjoying his time with Aini.

In Ardi's room, though,

"Who was that, Mom?" Ask Aini, while sitting in a chair.

"Sekertaris. If only his abilities weren't that good, I would've fired him." Ketus Ardi, who also sat near Aini.

"Mas isn't jealous, is he?" Aini Temptation.

Ardi turned his head and looked at Aini strangely. He even got a bad idea. He then leaned his body on Aini. His face drew closer to Aini's face.

"If I'm jealous, how? What are you gonna do?" Bisik Ardi's.

Aini even smiled. "How do you want me?"

"You're challenging me, honey?"

"Little." Relax Aini.

Ardi laughed too. "You're good at teasing me now."

"You taught me, Mom."

"Lucky we're in the office, honey. If it's home, I'll definitely pounce on you."

Aini smiled sweetly. And,,

Krrruukk, crutches, krruuukk. Ardi's stomach was ringing a little loud. Making the two people who were fighting each other's eyes turned their attention towards the source of the sound. A second later, they laughed together.

"We'll eat first, Mum! She must be very hungry. This morning, I did not finish breakfast. Aye, right?" Bring Aini attention.

Ardi also remembered his frustration at Angga this morning.

"Did Angga visit you often?" Datar Ardi, after re-establishing his body.

"He visited Erna, Mas. They keep their relationship secret from you. Out of fear, you'll ban it." Honest Aini.

"Me?"

"Yes. They're afraid, you'll get angry because they're in a relationship and you'll separate them later."

"Why should I do that?"

"Female quite understand your nature, Mas. He was afraid that, when he married Erna later, he would indirectly ask Erna to stop working, and that meant making Erna no longer take care of me. He's afraid you'll get mad at them and complicate their lives."

"Am I that cruel?"

"That's what Erna and Angga said to me."

Ardi was angry too. Aini immediately touched Ardi's hand gently, making Ardi suddenly lost his irritation.

"Don't stop them, Mum! Would Mas also want, if someday, Mas's relationship with someone, blocked and complicated by others?" Pinta Aini attention.

Ardi fell silent. He remembered, what he had to go through first when he wanted to be with Aini. Some people try very hard to separate them.

"Yes, I understand." Answer Ardi gently.

Aini smiled with relief. "Want to eat at the office or outside?"

"At the office, huh? My job is a lot. Outside it would be too long. I also want to go home early today." Reply Ardi a little spoiled.

Aini also nodded in understanding. Ardi then ordered food through the delivery service. They then decided to pray first while waiting for their food to come.

"What's this?" Ardi asked a little sternly, as he exited the room and saw many employees in front of his room.

"It's a break, sir. Humpy again with the rumpist." Toss one of them.

"Rumpy guy?" Ardi is confused.

"Evan, Sir. He's a race champion in the office, sir." Answer other employees.

Ardi understood the employee's answer. "Well!"

"Sir Dika is out buying lunch, sir." Evan Sahut.

"Seek him to see me later!" Brief Ardi.

"Good, sir." Obedient Evan.

Ardi then slightly turned around. He also grabbed Aini's hand that was preparing to come out.

"Come on!" Take Ardi a little possessive.

Aini also obediently received the treatment of Ardi who held her so gently and attentively. And when Aini came out, it was clear that she was the center of attention of Ardi's employees.

They started commenting as they thought. Many commented kindly and praised Aini. But, there were also some who were a little bit shingle with him.

Ardi and Aini clearly heard that. Ardi stopped his steps immediately. He was getting upset when he heard that. Aini immediately grabbed Ardi's arm and rubbed it gently, to calm Ardi down.

"Don't listen to them, Mum!" Soft Aini pinta.

"But,,"

"Mas! It's their right to comment anything." Obviously Aini again.

Ardi breathed a heavy sigh. That's why Ardi wanted to keep his relationship with Aini a secret first. Because he did not want to, there are bad comments for Aini. Until it might change Aini's attitude to him and will be a disruption in their relationship.

"Come, Mas! Pray first." Take Aini immediately, to distract Ardi.

Ardi is still sculpting.

"Come, Mas!" Aini Whine.

Ardi finally obeyed Aini. They then walked together to the mosque in Ardi's office.

We never know what people think of us. Whether it's good or bad, we can never control what they think. But one thing is for sure, it is their right to judge. We just need to be ourselves without having to obey everything they say.
