ALINEA LOVE

40

"Mister!! Ma'am!!"

The Dug Dug!!

Some people banged on Sora's car window. The woman was leaning on the car seat with blood flowing from her right forehead soaking her grey Berwana hood.

"Uuugh..," his Eagles when he opened his eyes and heard a noise from outside.

His frowning eyes endured the pain in his head and right shoulder. He recalled the incident some time ago, his car was hit from behind because of his mistake. He held his head which seemed to have hit the window. But he immediately ignored the pain and opened the car door to get out to find out the condition of the driver who hit his car.

"Sir, the ambulance is coming soon. You're being patient?" Said a man.

"How did the man who hit me, sir?" ask Sora

"I mbak, I..." A young man wearing a High School uniform approaches Sora, "I'm sorry, Ma'am. I'm just learning to drive."

"Are you okay?" sora asked, approaching the young man.

"What's up, Ma'am... But, Ma'am...." The young man pointed at Sora's face.

Sora held her painful forehead, but she felt wet in her fingers. Slowly he ventured to see his fingers, he knew that what he was holding was blood, so he ventured before he saw it.

The deg!

Sora's body suddenly suffocated when he saw the blood in his hand.

"Mr... Wear this, Mother." Someone gave a handkerchief to hold the blood that continues to pour.

"I'm sorry, ma'am. I'm wrong, I'll take responsibility if the police come."

"Police!?" Sora was trying to cultivate strength, he saw the condition of his car.

The door of the left car rattled due to being hit earlier, but it does not seem to interfere with the speed of the vehicle. Sora went to pick up his bag in the car, he took some money in his wallet and his business card then gave it to the young man.

"You're not wrong, I'm wrong. If you're okay, call me at this number. I'm in a hurry, I'm sorry I couldn't accompany you to the hospital." Sora said he immediately got into the car back.

"Sir, but I'm hurt..."

The people around tried to hold Sora. But the woman did not budge and immediately took her car to leave TKP.

Pain in his head he ignored, he also tried to be more careful in driving. He made a phone call to Aga.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Ga." Say when the phone is connected. "Send me your office address in Surabaya, lend me a car." Pinta Sora's.

"Wa'alaikumsalam.., where are you?" ask Aga.

"I'll explain everything later, don't tell my papa anything about what I'm doing or I'll completely disappear from your life." Sora Threat.

"Yes, explain to me where are you now?"

"I'm on business in Surabaya, I had a little ba— accident"

"WHERE ARE YOU NOW!!" Shouting Aga.

"Send me your office address, Ga!"

"HOW ARE YOU DOING!?"

"Send me your office address!" Sora disconnected his phone and put it behind the wheel of the car.

Despite the pain in his head and shoulders, Sora continued to try his hardest to get to Surabaya and finish his business.

Trrt trrrt

One new message came in, an address and share location of Aga's office in Surabaya. Sora immediately opened the GPS and asked the help of a road guide lady to guide her journey to Almeer's office.

About an hour down the toll road, Sora finally set foot on the protocol road in Surabaya. Many eyes are paying attention to the car is shuffled, but it does not make it uncomfortable. In his mind just wanted to get to Aga's office immediately and clean his wound then go to his destination.

Sora stopped his car in a three-story building. A security guard and a pair of well-dressed men and women approached Sora's car. Sora immediately came down with his belongings.

"Oh my God, Ma'am..." The three people's shrieks were compact when they saw Sora's state.

"This is Mikail Tyaga's office, right?" Sora.

"Yes, Mother. I'm Tina, the manager here. This is Hasan, Pak Aga's secretary. He's already told me you're coming here." The woman named Tina who looked older than Sora introduced herself.

"Me, Sora. Sorry my presence here troubles you." Sora introduced herself by enduring the pain.

"Let's go inside, we've brought in a doctor. And Mr. Aga is on his way here, Ma'am."

The guards helped carry Sora's belongings, then they entered Aga's office building. Sora was brought into the room he could have guessed was Aga's room. There was a female doctor and a nurse waiting for her arrival there.

"You must be working hard to endure the pain, huh?" the doctor asked when he saw the pale face and cold sweat on Sora's forehead. A handkerchief is tucked between her forehead and her veil to seal Sora's wound.

"Doctor, can you do the treatment as soon as possible? someone's been waiting for me." Sora asked.

"I saw your wounds first, yeah...."

Hasan leaves the room when the doctor will open Sora's veil, while Tina stays there to accompany him if Sora needs help.

The doctor opened the wet handkerchief to absorb the blood from Sora's forehead. "I'll have to sew it up. We'd better go to the clinic or the hospital, Ma'am."

Sora shook his head, "Please clean up and close my wound this doctor, once my business is done, I'll go to the hospital immediately." Pinta Sora's.

"Tp you can lose a lot of blood, the blood will keep flowing." Doctor's disclaimer.

"I beg you." Pinta Sora.

"You'd better not delay the hospital for too long."

Sora nodded and he started getting the first treatment from the doctor. He repeatedly looked at the clock on the wall, half an hour later the meeting with one of the bosses of a large company began.

About ten minutes after Sora's treatment, he got a change of clothes from Tina. Soon he went to the bathroom to change his clothes and clean up the remaining dried blood on his face. After everything was tidy, Sora rushed over to Tina.

"Which car can I wear, brother?" ask Sora.

"Sir Aga ordered Hasan to take you where you are going, Ma'am." Tina.

"Got it, it's okay." Sora didn't want to waste time arguing.

He and Hasan went to their destination. Luckily the location of Sora's destination was not too far from Aga's office until he could make it to a very large office building.

Hasan waits for Sora in the waiting room while Sora is escorted by a woman to a meeting room.

"Good morning, Mr. Jayat. I'm Sora from StudiOne, Malang." Sora introduced himself.

"Good morning, please sit down. We've been waiting." Said a guy named Jayat.

Sora was a little nervous when he found that the present in his presentation this time was not just one person, but many people. Pain, pain, anxiety and nervous all mixed into one.

Bismilbornrahmanirrahiim...,

Sora starts his presentation, he will try his best. If in Malang he still get help from Mita and Aura, but this time he tried himself.

***

With pain all over her body, Sora finally came out of the meeting room after she was in two hours. Smile expands on his pale lips, It is not in vain he passed all this and finally he got a big additional fund for Almeer's target.

"Sora!!"

Sora looked forward, the usually cold-faced man running towards him with a face full of worry.

"Ga.., I did it, Ga." Sora said weakly, the corner of his eyes watering from the taste of haru on himself.

Aga nodded, acknowledging the success of the woman who already looked helpless. Although he was very sorry and worried about Sora, he tried to give a smile to appreciate Sora.

"We're going to the hospital right now, Ra." Take Aga.

Sora smiled and nodded and Aga picked up the books and bags in Sora's hands.

"You can walk by yourself?" ask Aga.

Sora nodded, he started to step up.

Aga accompanied Sora's steps, he was eager to embrace and reach Sora's steps because the woman next to him already looked completely helpless.

"Sora!"

Aga took off the books and bags he was holding and immediately pulled Sora's body into his arms as the woman suddenly lost control. Hasan and some of the people around them approached and tried to help.

"We're going to the hospital now, Ra!" Shouting Aga, he lifted up Sora's body and carried her to the car.

Hasan picks up Sora's books and bags and follows Aga's steps and puts Sora's belongings in Aga's car.

"You go back to the office, San." Aga Ribbon.

"Good, sir." Hasan.

Aga took Sora to a nearby hospital, the woman was unconscious when she reached the ER. He enlists the help of a nurse to take Sora to the examination room.

Aga explained the incident he knew to the doctor, "Please save him, doctor." Pinta Aga's.

The doctor nodded, "You can wait in front, sir." Answer doctor.

Aga complies and goes to the ER waiting room. He rubbed his face and repeatedly ruffled his hair. Fretful, worried, angry, all piled up into one in his eyes. It was only this first time that he saw Sora was injured this badly. Luckily he found Sora's condition was not covered in blood, but saw the car door, scarf and clothes covered with blood Sora almost make Aga crazy.

***

Meanwhile, in Almeer's office, which had been very busy for a few days. All employees are overwhelmed by new projects. Secretary Almeer is also busy noting the name of the company name that must be followed up by Almeer.

"Sir, this afternoon there are three companies entering again." Siska said as she handed over her notes to Almeer.

"Alhamdullillah, Sis. I also got a call to my personal number, there's someone from the Capital who intends to invest here." Sahut Almeer, but his face does not look happy even being confused.

"Sir Almeer, why?" ask Siska.

"I wonder where those people come from, Sis." Answer Almeer.

"Alhamdullillah you have a good marketing team, sir. You also try very hard. Maybe also the ads on our website read a lot of people."

"It looks like Mr. Almeer should add employees, sir. Many new projects are waiting for us." Siska.

"Yes, Sis. You take care of hiring a new employee, yeah."

"Good, Sir. I'm back to the front, sir." Pamit Siska's.

"Yes...,"

Almeer looked at the newspaper account sheet belonging to his office. It's been a month over a week and the last balance has passed than half of the shuffled. If this kind of stable state continued, he could definitely meet the target Heaven had given him.

He was back on the figure of the woman he was fighting for. His eyes now moved to stare at his phone, there was no sign of reply from Sora. Since this morning, his chat status has been read.

"What are you doing, Ra?" He muttered while looking at his chat room with Sora. Since morning his anxiety did not go away even though he had busied himself.

Almeer tries to get back to Sora. The dial tone was connected several times but there were no signs of being missed. He tried to make a call back..

Tuuut...

Tuout...

"The number you're going to is busy, try a few more moments."

Almeer was surprised to find his call in riject by Sora. If it was like this, it was certain that Sora was angry with him. That woman must have completely misunderstood Kanaya.

***

Aga was holding Sora's phone, he stared at the phone very annoyed. It was a pain to slam the phone when Almeer's name appeared on Sora's phone screen. And pressing the red button on the phone screen becomes an impingement of his regret.

Because Almeer, the woman who was very much in his guard so as not to get hurt was now lying weak unconscious in front of him. Fortunately nothing serious happened to Sora, if only Sora was seriously injured, Aga willing to spend a lifetime behind bars after killing the man's life.

"Uughhh...,"

Aga drew closer to Sora when he heard the woman's voice moaning.

"Yeah...,"

Sora opened his eyes slowly then closed them again, opening them again little by little. He frowned when he felt pain in his head.

"My head's been sewn, isn't it?" ask Sora.

"Udah... You are fine now, '" answered Aga, he was relieved when Sora looked fine.

"Ga, help me to sit down."

"You'd better just go to bed, Ra."

"Ga...," Sora manatap Aga, forcing the man to obey his will.

Aga was forced to help Sora to sit on the bed.

"My back is uncomfortable, how long am I sleeping?" ask Sora.

"Not even two hours."

"Oooh, I should have slept a little longer so that it doesn't hurt my forehead." lamented Sora.

"Why do you have to be this close? go alone to Surabaya. You're kan—"

"St!!" Sora placed one of her index fingers on her lips to slash Aga's nagging which would only make her head even more dizzy.

"You made sure my dad wouldn't know this, right?" ask Sora.

"For this time he will not know, but I do not know in the future." replied Aga.

"Yes, let's not know! If you know Almeer—"

"Don't say his name in front of me anymore!" Aga's voice was very flat, but it sounded like a deadly threat that made Sora's feathers stand up. "I'm holding myself back from hitting him."

"I'd hate you so much if you dared to touch her, Ga!" Sora threatens Aga.

Aga was silent, looking at Sora whose eyes looked resolute about the threat. "Why are you always this stupid when it comes to dealing with men?"

"Do I look stupid?" Sora asked, her eyes starting to glaze over.

"Sorry, I—"

Sora shook his head, a tear began to drip down his cheek. "I'm a fool, Ga. I don't have any advantages. I'm just a man born without any ability.I'm just lucky to have a rich dad. Otherwise, I'm just a figure that's always been neglected."

Sora covered her face and cried. Crying over her who had no advantage over Kanaya. Crying how stupid she is in front of Kanaya when Almeer prefers to ask other women for help on business while she herself is a graduate of the best business school in the world.

Sora wiped his tears even though they kept flowing. "I also want to look more in Almeer's eyes, Ga. I want to have an edge that I can be proud of in front of Kanaya and Almeer. One thing, I want to have an advantage that Kanaya doesn't have. I envy her Ga.... She's too perfect in my eyes."

Sora's cry grew louder, now he could pull out the tightness in his heart that he had been piling up some time.

"You have your own strengths, Ra. Stop comparing yourself to others. You'll just feel a lack." Aga tried to give support to Sora. "You've been trying pretty well up to this point, I'm not sure that woman can do what you're doing right now." Imbuh Aga's.

Aga patted slowly on Sora's back, giving the woman a little strength to regain her confidence.

***

Adzan isya' has been reverberating some time ago, the worshipers of the Al Mukmin pesantren mosque have come down from the mosque after performing Islamic prayers'.

"Tumben, Mas Al? Where you going?" asked a worshipper when he saw Almeer walking out the boarding gate.

"There's a need, sir." Answer Almeer. "Come, Sir. Assalamu'alaikum..."

"Needles...,"

The man who was still wearing the scabbard ran small towards the housing where Sora lived. Armed with answers from Kanaya, Almeer learns of the house where the woman he loves lives.

He did not know if all this time he lived not too far from Sora, but he tried to keep himself and of course keep a distance with Sora so that Heaven does not misunderstand him.

"Assalamu'alaikum.," Almeer said a greeting when he arrived in front of Sora's residence. The door to the living room of the house is open.

"Wa'alaikumsalam..," Lala saw who the guest was, "Who's looking, huh?" ask him while approaching the gate.

"I'm Almeer, aunt. Sora has a aunt?" ask Almeer.

"Sora hasn't come home yet. Said Aura and Mita again the same Aga in Surabaya."

"Together Aga?"

"Yes.., try to connect, yes." Lala.

"Good, Aunt. Thank you, I said goodbye. Assalamu'alaikum...,"

"Needles...,"

Almeer rushed back to his house, feeling very uncomfortable to hear Sora with Aga until late this night.

At home, he immediately went into his room and picked up his cell phone and called Sora.

"Thanks Sora.

Tuutt....

Tuout...

"Hallo!"

Almeer was surprised to find the voice of the man who received his phone call, he was sure the owner of the voice was Aga.

"Where's Sora? I want to talk to him." Pinta Almeer's.

"He's on a break. You can't bother him now."

"What is he doing there? is she okay?"

"He was just calming down from the man who made his heart hurt."

Almeer fell silent, closing his eyes lamenting his regret.

"I have to explain something to him..."

"Not now, he's sleeping. You can explain it another time. That's if Sora's gonna listen to you."

Silence, no sound. His phone call was cut off without permission by Aga.

He was still looking at the screen of his phone, looking at the photo of Sora who was smiling sweetly and full of twinkle of happiness in the look in his eyes.

"I'm sorry I hurt you, Ra." Regretfully.
