Dear, Soul!!

Same

Karin finishes her work quickly, then steps away from her study to the toilet, tidying up her make-up and going back to check on her appearance, he also did not forget to spray a little soft-scented perfume to perfect his appearance while increasing his confidence.

Last night Karin got a message from Fauzi, an invitation message to meet today. This was the message Karin had been waiting for the last few days after she met Fauzi earlier. Yes, although he knew of the other people present at their meeting today, but still Karin was happy, although not as happy as he imagined other possibilities of Fauzi's invitation to meet.

For Karin, any meeting that would take place with Fauzi, was a blessing to her. He did not care about the presence of others in the meeting, as long as he could see Fauzi, for him it was more than enough. And again, as Fauzi had told him that the other person who would join their meeting today was Fauzi's successor, he said, so Karin had already devised a plan to make Fauzi stay with her when the meeting to discuss the work was over.

Karin steps her foot into a place where she has an appointment with Fauzi. Women who use plain shirts fitting cream-colored body combined with black and last pencil skirt subordinates with a touch of light brown long coat, it is, sweeping the place around with his gaze looked for the position of Fauzi, the man who had an appointment with him today.

Karin smiled widely when her gaze found the man she knew was sitting with other people she did not know with the position of sitting back from his current standing position.

Karin walked steadily toward Fauzi who was seen talking to a man sitting with her. His steps were slightly accelerated when he wanted to meet hunting him to immediately be able to say hello to Fauzi.

“Sorry, I came late.” Karin said after her move successfully arrived near Fauzi.

Fauzi stopped his chatter, and looked back at Karin who had arrived. A sweet smile does not forget Fauzi showed in welcoming Karin.

“Ah is okay, this is indeed as our promise. Introduce, he's the guy I talked about earlier”

Fauzi set his sights on Faiq who was with him waiting for Karin to arrive.

Karin was still with an ornate smile on her lips, setting her gaze on the man she knew of her existence at her meeting with Fauzi this time around.

The smile that had been adorned was immediately lost when his gaze found a face that was not unfamiliar to him. The two eyeballs that were staring at him at this moment with the same shocked gaze that he had, were not the first people he had met today. A face she knew well, though she had never seen again in the last few years.

The gazes of the two locked for a moment, looking at each other with the same shock. Not a single bit of Karin blinked, as did Faiq who realized, that the woman standing in front of him was the one he knew before.

Time seemed to stop between the two, a view that was as straight as a fixed gaze continued, making both of them forget the presence of others between them.

“A-what's up?” Asked Fauzi who was confused to see Karin's unusual reaction, as well as Faiq who seemed reluctant to take his eyes off.

Fauzi's question broke the lock in gaze that lasted some time between Karin and Faiq.

Karin averted her eyes, turned to look at Fauzi and returned to show her smile, although a clear look of awkwardness on her face. Faiq simply averted his eyes and tried to find another object to be targeted by his eyes.

“Ah ti-nothing” Reply Karin. “I sit ya..” Karin tried to shake off her surprise.

“Ka-you're okay?” Fauzi's question made clear Karin's state of apparent shock.

“Yes, I'm fine. I'm just a little surprised to see it, because if I'm not wrong, I'm, he is a successful businessman so I did not expect that he would be the next working partner” replied Karin hiding the truth between the relationship he had with Faiq before.

Faiq who captures the meaning of Karin's words that want to hide the relationship they had before, finally play the plot that Karin had determined suddenly. Yes, Faiq himself also did not want to say anything to Fauzi about the relationship he had with Karin, according to him it is not an important thing that he should tell Fauzi.

“A-I was also a little surprised earlier. I did not think that a director of the company that we work with is a young woman” replied Faiq to hide the truth between the two. Faiq again used formal language, to reinforce that the two were not people who recognized each other, also because Karin began to use formal language.

“Oh, I was a little surprised earlier to see the reaction of the two of you. Yes it is undeniable, you two are right are great people” Praise Fauzi on both colleagues, as well as two people he had previously known before plunging into the workforce. “Then you guys first acquaintance. I know, the small parts of you must have known each other, but still have to be acquaintances before we start talking about this work issue”

Karin too Faiq just smiled knot. Slowly Faiq stretched out his hand, continuing the pretense Karin had begun and approved of him.

“Faiq, the person who will replace Fauzi from his position is also the one who will..” Faiq paused for a moment, it felt very difficult to run the drama that had suddenly started. “Yang will cooperate with you”

Karin smiled, albeit with a bit of coercion.

Both are very awkward, but Fauzi who is either less sensitive or indeed not so concerned with the circumstances of both, so do not realize the awkwardness that occurs.

Fauzi began a discussion about work. Although Karin and Faiq still feel uncomfortable with each other, but they remain professional at work and put aside their personal problems that re-emerge to the surface after they have been buried deeply.

The conversation went well, Fauzi who as an intermediary between the two is very reliable in conveying the things that make them connected in the work.

Time passed by for about an hour more, Fauzi finally closed their conversation regarding work and glanced at the clock that was coiled around his wrist.

“It was late afternoon, I had to take Salwa home”

“Take? I didn't see Salwa here” Tanya Karin while looking for Salwa. Karin uses non-formal language considering they no longer discuss work.

“Iya, I dare not leave Salwa at home alone” Fauzi said while sending a message to Sasa.

Faiq glanced at Karin, heard Karin who used non-formal language and knew Salwa, making Faiq draw the conclusion that Karin was not the person Fauzi knew through this world of work. For a moment he felt anxious about Karin who could have told Fauzi about their relationship, or maybe had told him everything. But his misgivings he edges, and again realizes that the previous who started the drama did not know each other between himself and Karin, is Karin herself, which means Karin also intends to hide the truth of their relationship.

For a moment Faiq was conscious. For what she hid the truth about her married self, to Fauzi. But sure enough, his instincts seemed to refuse to tell Fauzi the truth about himself who had been married. And again his logic played out, Fauzi knew or did not about him being married, there would be no effect for Fauzi.

Karin's indistinct expression after hearing Fauzi's words of concern that he aimed at his wife, managed to attract the attention of Faiq who had earlier glanced at him. Although according to Faiq it feels strange, but he does not want to take a headache and just focus on Sasa who will soon be back with Salwa.

It wasn't long enough after Fauzi had sent Sasa a message. Salwa and Sasa finally came back to them.

“The talk is done?” Ask Sasa after arriving.

“Iya” Fauzi replied smiling at Sasa. “Still Sa”

Sasa just nodded in thanks from Fauzi.

Once again Karin was surprised. A feeling of danger naturally appeared to haunt him. Whether it was a natural feeling or something he shouldn't have felt. What is clear at this time, Karin felt so threatened by the existence of Sasa, as if Sasa was ready to take a position to accompany Fauzi someday, especially Sasa who sounded very familiar when talking to Fauzi.

“Di-dia who?” Karin asked who needed an answer to make up for her anxiety.

“She Sasa, my friend in college. Because she's a nurse, I'm asking her to help me keep Salwa as long as I'm busy with you guys.."

"Oh" answered Karin briefly, glancing at Sasa.

His gaze which he directed at Sasa, found Sasa who gave him a sweet smile a sign of his hospitality. Karin just smiled back sweetly, although the feeling of anxiety still haunts her.

"Then I go back. Salwa must rest immediately"

Fauzi moved from his seat, grabbing Salwa's shoulder to provide protection for his wife. A scene that managed to create envy in Karin's heart.

"Sa, you wanna stay?" Ask Fauzi. He knew very well, would Faiq who was still not satisfied talking with Sasa.

"Son, I'm coming home. We will come together" replied Sasa smiling.

An answer that gives a shot at Karin's feelings, also at Faiq. The two immediately set their sights on Sasa, as if there was a desire to protest at Sasa's answer, but had no rights.

Fauzi also Salwa and Sasa, finally passed. Karin continues to usher in their departure with her gaze, as well as Faiq who does not give up his gaze on the woman he loves.
