Happy reading & ''Double


Their eyes met and looked at each other from a distance for a while, until Kirana broke that eye contact first and it made Sakti sad and disappointed.


"Gue was sure now that Lo was more tense than me," whispered Fabian mocked her brother.


"Diem Bi !" Answer Sakti with a vibrating sound.


"And what did I say? It's a tremble." Fabian was teasing his brother.

Flashback a few days ago.


Kirana and her two children set foot back in Jakarta.


This is the first time Kirana has returned to Jakarta since she decided to leave her husband Sakti.


There was a pain in his heart when he arrived. It has been almost 3 months since then but the pain has not gone away.


"My mom fell !" Dareel's screams spread his reverie.


Kirana turned her head towards Dareel and saw that the phone was already splattered on the floor.


"Don't cry" Kirana said, bowing her body to speak with her child.


"Its okay. We fix it at home." Kirana said softly. He tried to calm his son.


Dareel continued to cry while Davin picked up the broken phone and put it in the bag he was carrying.


"Are you okay ? Are you guys all right ?" Ask a stranger to approach them.


The man with eyes as blue as the ocean, the firm jaw of his brown hair looking glittering with his perfectly upright nose stunned Kirana for a moment.


Instead of answering the question, Kirana was busy looking at the handsome man in front of her.


The man repeated his question and made Kirana come to a realization.


"Ah... Sorry, we're fine." Kirana replied with a sweet smile on her face.


"Are you sure ? (Are you sure?)" The man made sure.


"Yes we are fine. (Yes, we are fine)" replied Kirana who was about to leave.


"Wait !" The man's words restrained Kirana's departure.


Kirana turned her head to the stranger. "What's wrong? Do you need any help?" Ask Kirana.


"May we walk together towards the exit ? I've seen you guys since Singapore. You folks. It looks so adorable" replied the man.


Kirana immediately hugged her two children as if providing protection.


"Oh no's... Don't get me wrong. I'm not a criminal" the man said.


"Where would any criminal want to confess ! And why are you so fluent in Indonesian?"  Kirana asked full of questions.


"I swear I'm not a criminal. I'm on a business trip. How can I speak Indonesian ? The first is because in my body the blood flows Indonesia, my grandmother is from Bandung, and I have often returned to Indonesia." Obviously the guy.


Although the man had explained but the suspicion was still Kirana felt.


"I'm sorry, my husband is waiting. I have to see her immediately" Kirana said in a lie.


"Husband?" This beautiful woman already has a husband. He only travels with his two children and in Indonesia rarely someone has children outside the bond of marriage. Suddenly the man was disappointed.


"Mmm, okay... Have a nice day" said the man with a disappointed look.


"You too," Kirana replied courteously and left the man who was looking at her in amazement.


"Ah... Indeed the Indonesian woman was very friendly," the inner man in his heart.


Kirana left the man who kept looking at Kirana's departure.


Long awaits, the private driver of his parents has not arrived without news. Kirana was upset.


"Mama I'm hungry." Davin said as he held his stomach.


"Hmm how about we eat pizza first ?" Persuade Kirana.


They nodded their heads in approval of Kirana's invitation.


" 1 large pan of pizza and 3 drinks of lemon tea" Kirana told the cashier when they reached a restaurant that provided pizza instantly.


"There's another addition ?" Ask the waiter.


"Es chocolate cream two bowls," replied Kirana adding her order.


"Oh my God, I think we're a match." Said a man who was sitting not far from him and turned out to be a foreign man he had met before.


"Where's your husband?" Ask the man full of questions.


"That's none of your business" replied Kirana Ketus.


"No, of course not. Even I came here first" replied the man not to accept Kirana's accusation.


Kirana noticed the man's desk, there were indeed some dishes that had served food and indicated he had indeed come first.


"Are you ?" He said while showing his order that had come first.


Kirana was indifferent and turned her attention back to her two children.


The foreign man kept stealing glances at Kirana even though he was busy with his food. After some time passed, a man came to Kirana's table. He bowed as a sign of respect and Kirana smiled at the man who had just come to her. The stranger stared in dislike.


Kirana and her two children stood up to leave. The man who came to her had brought Kirana's things.


The foreign man sitting next to him kept watching, curious he finished his meal and quietly followed Kirana.


Now they stand in line to cross the road. The foreign man slightly bent his tall body so that he could whisper to Kirana.


"I don't think he's your husband" she whispered


Kirana looked at her eyes for a sign of dislike.


"It's none of your business !" Kirana answered and moved away.


"Miss, if we meet again someday it means we're dating. And I won't hesitate to take you to dinner" said the man with confidence.


"Is this a challenge?" Ask Kirana.


" You could say that" replied the stranger.


Indonesia is very wide, Kirana was only a few days here there is no way she met the man.


"Okay deal ! But please from now on stop talking to me !" Kirana said with a slanted smile.


The stranger smiled and nodded his head.


Kirana also left a foreign man who had no name who it was by holding her two children.


***


The next day Kirana had prepared to go to her family's company office. Since Kirana in Singapore she has been taught how to do business.


Robby invites Kirana to participate in the family business world with the intention that her sister can distract her from the problems she is experiencing.


"Mama go first, yes" Kirana told her two children.


"Ma, the phone won't turn on." Davin.


"Yes, my mom will be very busy today. You can use your tablet or laptop first if you want to play games. Later after a time we will replace it with a new one" Kirana said to her two children.


Davin and Dareel nodded their heads simultaneously.


Kirana felt very lucky. Her two children are not demanding and not fussy during this separation period until Kirana is easier to live her days.


Kirana kissed the tops of her two sons' heads before she left.


***


Kirana got to the office early. This was the first time he was assigned to receive a guest who was an investor. But Kirana had previously accompanied her brother Robby to receive guests of an investor as well. Armed with a little experience Kirana was assigned to this job.


This guest is a foreign man, he will invest considerable money for the construction of a hotel and resort in Bali. Kirana who speaks fluent English does not feel this will be a problem for her.


The sound of the stiletto shoes that Kirana was wearing sounded so clear, for a moment Kirana saw her reflection in the mirror. By wearing a coffee-brown pencil skirt, a white shirt that so fit wrapped around his body and his hair that he let down, contrasted with the appearance of Kirana on his daily life. He smiled looking at that.


"I can definitely !" Kirana said encouragingly to herself and then continued walking towards the room that had been set for this meeting.


"Good morning ma'am" said a young woman who was helping Kirana this morning.


"In the morning," Kirana answered the greeting with a friendly smile. And they were also involved in talks about a meeting that would be held in a few minutes.


Kirana tidied up her clothes and hair, she wanted her appearance to be perfect in this first task.


There was a knock on the door, a young woman who was named Mega appeared.


"Mother, the guest has come." Mega polite.


"Please come in" replied Kirana.


Before long a handsome, well-built foreign man entered the room. He looks so perfect in a black suit. He walked confidently towards Kirana.


"Welcome to our company" Kirana said, swallowing her saliva.


"You owe me one dinner, Miss Kirana," replied the man with the blue eyes of the sea without heeding Kirana's greeting.
