Between Love and Obsession

ACDO Chapter. 69

Chapters. 69

"Nina bobo, oh nina bobo. Otherwise bobo bitten his_"

"Stop!"

Henry's lullaby came to a halt as Areta beat her chest softly. Areta felt uneasy and uncomfortable as Henry sang the song to her, clutching her tightly, patting her soft back. It's like putting a child to sleep. In a comfortable air conditioning temperature, even to hold each other.

Henry also chuckled. "Sleep. You need a lot of rest."

"I won't be able to sleep with your song. What do you think I'm a child?"

"Because from now on, I will treat you like a child. Sleep I'm lying down, eat me a bribe, even take a bath I'll take a bath."

"You're missing."

"You're right. I'm late. Too late love to you."

"Gombal."

"Whatever you say." Henry even tightened his hold.  Even though this afternoon he still has a meeting schedule with the marketing division. But because Areta's condition was also a happy news that came suddenly, he slightly delayed the meeting time.

"Aren't you supposed to go back to the office?"

"I'll be back, but after making sure my wife's resting properly."

"All right, I'm going to sleep now. Let's hurry back to the office." Areta forced her eyes closed.

Henry glanced at the watch on his left wrist. He has 30 minutes to go back to the office. Then the time of 30 minutes he used as best as possible.

"Have you slept?" Henry asked.

"Hm?" Areta confronts him with deheman. Who posted a smile on Henry's face.

"You sleepin' well?"

"Hm. Now leave. Don't you have a lot of work in the office?"

"alright. I'm gonna go. But you promised, a proper rest. Don't do any work in this house. You take good care of our future baby."

Areta gave a small laugh, nodding with a face hidden behind the chest of Henry's field. "Yes, dear Mr. Henry. I will take care of our prospective baby well and full of love," he said then looked up. Pulling his face a little away.

"Good."

But it was Henry's face that began to approach, about to kill the distance slowly. And finally, close the lips. Sip each other gently, rhythmically, like the rhythm of the hearts of both who are humming love.

"Go." Areta took off the lip link for a moment, exorcising Henry subtly. There is a lot of work waiting for him. And she did not want to be a spoiled wife, who always troubled her husband.

"There's still 30 minutes left. I still have time to see our baby."

Areta laughed again, while beating Henry's chest.

"Unfortunately, his grandfather cannot be visited now. Doctor Nino said, still vulnerable. You have to be patient first. Yea?"

Henry let out his breath slowly, pretending to sulk. But really, they want to be persuaded.

What Hera said a few minutes ago is true. That is indeed reality. Henry's bucin is not bound to Areta. He felt that he did not want to be far, even for a moment.

"If only a kiss could," he persuaded.

Areta found it funny to hear that. Henry has asked for such rights several times, under the pretext of 'only'. But in fact the man even to kebablasan. This time he would not allow.

Shaking his head and smiling, he said. "Unfortunately can't."

Until this moment, he still did not believe, God gave him the opportunity to be a father. He had promised in his heart that he would try to be a good husband and father. Whatever he will do to make Areta and the prospective baby happy.

...

In another corner of the city.

"Why AC? This is hot." Mega grumbled, flapping his hands in front of his face.

Inside the room with a diameter of 3x4 m², a narrow size for Mega, making it growl without the flame of air conditioning. He also grumbled, his nap became disturbed, even far from the word comfortable. He then jumped down from the bed with a sinister face sucks.

"Sorry, for a while we haven't been able to use AC. I'm frugally." Angga said while opening the phone. Just a message came into his phone, telling him that the President Director of Dreams Food wanted to meet him after a meeting this afternoon.

"Keep I'm so hot? Crazy huh. Then I'll go back to my parents' house. I don't want to stay here. I married you." Jerking his feet sulking, Mega then came out of the room after slamming the door strong.

Angga doesn't care about it. Because there are other problems that are more serious than the sulking of Mega. Though he and Mega have applied for a leave of absence for 3 days, and Henry has also agreed. Then why did Henry suddenly ask to meet? Did Henry know that he had ever persuaded Areta to come back to him? He even contacted Areta several times, launching the same appeal, but eventually ended up with a blocking. Yes, Areta blocked all access via phone, chat, even on social media Areta blocked it.

A message that now brings Angga sitting opposite Henry in the presidential room. He is still on holiday.

"May I know why Mr Henry called me?" Angga asked, back to being formal, because he was in the work environment.

"Female, I'm sorry about Rosa's passing. I am also happy with your marriage. I congratulate you," said Henry with a special character of his arrival.

"Thank you, Mr. Henry."

"I'll just go right away." Just as Henry said so, the door of his room was pushed open by Fabian.

Fabian came to give me a white envelope. The envelope he gave to Henry, after which Fabian rushed out of the room.

Right at the door of the room was closed, Henry pushed the envelope in front of Angga.

A bad feeling began to overshadow Angga. His heart was suspicious. Don't-don't ...

"Please open it" said Henry.

With full question mark Angga also grabbed the envelope, began to open it.

But he was really surprised when he read the contents of the paper, which was clearly written about ...

"People, I'm sorry I had to make this decision. You're fired with respect and with severance." Henry said without a doubt. His eyes full of confidence. This is what he had asked Areta's opinion a few hours ago.

Angga mute a thousand languages, staring at the nanar envelope. Unexpectedly, he returned the envelope to Henry.

Henry seemed to be casually responding to it. Because he can guess why Angga even returned the envelope. For what else if not for his pride. Whereas a few months ago, when Angga agreed to the terms of the position he wanted, the man did not have self-esteem. Now, is he protecting his pride? Really funny.

"Sir Henry didn't have to bother firing me. It is my pleasure to resign from this company." Angga looked confident saying. Though the situation is now being squeezed, wrapped in mounting debt. But for the sake of self-esteem he will not be pitied by others. Especially Henry, the man who has now replaced his position next to Areta.

Henry smiled faintly. His guess is not wrong. Angga maintained his prestige, also trying to cover up his embarrassment. Might as well.

"Actually Angga ..." Henry paused his sentence for a moment. Throw that envelope. Then unexpectedly, he even tore the envelope in front of Angga. The look on his face that had originally looked mediocre, now turned serious.

Angga surprised. But didn't want to ask why Henry tore up his dismissal letter.

"Actually I know what difficulties are afflicting you right now, Angga. Actually Areta also proposed that I not fire you. You know why?" Henry asked.

Angga answered with a long breath.

"Because they say you're still bearing your mother. That's why I cancelled your dismissal. But I'm going to move you to a branch office out of town, with a regular staff position. Hows it? Do you agree or not? Or would you prefer this letter of dismissal?" henry asked for a choice.
