"You brought your own vehicle, Wen? If not, will I take you home?" Al offered to Wening as they moved out of Odysseia.
"No, Al. I brought a car with me."
"Do you want to go to the parking lot?"
"That's okay, first of all. I still have to buy something at Kem Chick."
"Do you want me to be?" ask Al. Purely just a pleasantries. Inwardly, he wanted Wening to continue rejecting him.
Wening smiled, "No need, Al. Thanks to ya."
Al nodded. In my heart, grateful.
"If so, I go home first."
Wening waved as Al walked away. He stared at the back for a few moments. Ah, it seems like tonight, things are not going as they please. Though if he is more careful in his attitude maybe he can get the attention of men like Al.
Physical okay. The family background is also very good.
"It's a pity.." murmured Wening. Finally, he turned in the opposite direction.
Meanwhile, Al himself walked towards the parking lot with shunt steps. The blind date result this time is really a big zero. He felt Wening really didn't match him. They have no topic of conversation.
Al did not try to build a conversation, Wening who had missteps from the beginning also did not try to find a topic. And yes, Shaletta is one of the most important people in Al's life. If from the beginning had been hostile to his only puppet sister, it would be difficult for Wening to face his family later at Diandra's wedding. So, Al decided not to take the woman.
'Udah stay a little, still be picky, ' Al grumbled to himself.
He arrived at his car shortly afterwards. Then he drove out his car while calling Boris's number.
"Yes?" Boris replied excitedly on the other end, thinking that there would be good news he got from Al.
"Not me." Al direct to the point.
"Who? Why?"
"Telat came, continue to be very strange, Etta immediately did not like. Where don't you call again."
"Who? Etta's coming?"
"Just nemenin had a quick meal earlier, because Wening was late for an hour."
Boris immediately chuckled, "Yes, lo kayak has not been used to waiting for people to come as safe. I waited for hours to feel at home!"
"Damn! This thing is in the mall, Drill! I'm not comfortable, so ask mementin Etta bentar earlier."
"Yes anyway. You should make a deal in Blue Grass."
Al breathed. Not just a place, he also felt incompatible with Wening.
"Anyway, Etta why don't you like it?" Boris switched topics.
"I don't know, I don't know either. I'll ask Etta. But obviously I don't want Etta with Wening even claws at my cousin's wedding."
Boris laughed this time.
"Seloooow, selooooow, I still have stock. Tomorrow morning Mr. Aldebaran I have scheduled to meet lunch with a beautiful and gentle woman named Kirana," said Boris, acting like a secretary.
"Which kirana?"
Boris sent a photo to whatsapp Al.
"I sent the picture to whatsapp lo."
"Let me see, I'm driving."
"OKAY. Want to see where you're with him? I'm still chatting."
"don't know. Let him be the right one. Than zonk again."
"Okay, I'll tell you later."
Then, his car drove past the BEJ stop, which was when he saw Wening stopping a taxi there.
"Bring your own car from Hong Kong!" muttered Al, annoyed.
"Eh? Why lo?" asked Boris, who heard Al suddenly grumbling.
"Not to think about. I guess it's just Kirana, my hope?" lamented Al.
"Yaaaa, he's the one who has time to meet you tomorrow. If you want, I can set a time after your cousin's wedding."
"Gue butuhnya fit the wedding, sempruuuul!"
Boris chuckles.
"Don't, let's talk again. I drove first. Thank you, Drill!" Al also cut off the phone. He could only hope that Kirana could be according to his wishes.

The next day, at lunchtime, Al immediately walked out of his office. Unfortunately, while waiting in front of the elevator, he passed by his father.
"Where are you going?" ask Abhimanyu.
"Lunch" replied Al, as was.
"Cock not the same as Rene?"
"There's other people's business."
"Certainly? Since when do I keep messing around, Pa," grumbled Al. Fortunately, no one else was waiting for the elevator near them. Coincidentally or because other employees deliberately avoid them.
"Yes, you. Where were you yesterday? Lunch instead of going back to the office!"
"Why do I go to the office if no one wants me to work?!"
Abhimanyu snorted furiously.
That's when the elevator doors opened. Al went straight in. Abhimanyu just flinching.
"Why not come in?" ask Al.
"Can your high blood rise Papa if you are with you for a long time!"
Al grunting.
"Tomorrow if Al brings a future wife, don't ever tell me about me making Papa high blood again yes," Al grumbled, pressing the button to close the door.
"Al??? You really???" Abhimanyu's expression changed sumringah.
Al sticking out his tongue.
And at that moment, the door closed.
As soon as the elevator rolled down, Al felt great regret. He does not know how Kirana, but he has given hope to his father.
"Gue bego really.." lamented Al.
The elevator doors opened on the ground floor. He immediately walked to the parking lot. Can only hope someone he will meet will meet every expectation and –times need to add– his family.

Al walked into the Pasfes shortly afterwards. His first impression when he received a message from Kirana was very good.
The woman works around Kuningan, so she invites Al to eat GM Bakmie alone in Pasfes. He said to be quick and easy. This is a plus for Al.
"Al!" A woman from inside the Bakmie GM restaurant waved. Al immediately recognized her, because Kirana's face was not much different from her photo. Other plus value.
"Hey, have you been mesen?" al asked, as soon as he arrived before Kirana.
"Udah. So sorry. I can't be long about it. You order it first."
"Eh, it's okay. Ntar. Not too hungry."
"You sure?"
Al just nodded.
"At least busy?" ask Al.
"Biasalah. At the beginning of the year, I was busy with auditing."
Al nodded. One more plus point. Independent career woman always make her salute. Looks like Kirana can save a lot of plus points from Al.
"Where's Boris, Al?" ask Kirana.
"Udah from High School."
"Well, that's good."
"Yes, sometimes wonder."
Kirana laughs.
"Where do you know yourself?" ask Al, turn around. Well, Kirana got Al interested in her story. One more extra point.
"He's my friend."
"Oh."
"He's still the same girl?" ask Kirana, suddenly. Al's hunch was not good.
"Mm, still."
Kirana's expression immediately turned disappointed. Al himself had scratched his head which suddenly felt had a thousand fleas.
"Cirain has broken up, rarely update it."
Al's tongue is weak. Not yet known ten minutes, not even Al approved Kirana despite having received many plus points...
"Why indeed?" ask Al, hard work.
Kirana stroked her nose. His face was embarrassed.
"Hehehe, I like Boris, Al."
JEDEEEE!
Dismissed is Al's last hope.
