ELEGANCE OF TWO HEARTS

Chapter 21's

"Lake in!" pradjna answered when the door was knocked.

"Sorry, Mother. There's Mr. Haris outside, he wants to meet" said Lia, his assistant.

Pradjna looked up, then nodded his ass.

"Good morning, Pradjna's mother" said Aris as soon as he entered Pradjna's room.

Pradjna nods to let Aris sit on the soffa.

"Good morning too Mr Haris, how can I help you?" tanya Pradjna.

Aris cleared her throat and continued, "It's not ethical, but I need help" Aris said.

"Can you give me a job?. Whatever I will accept, because I also cannot show a diploma, only the energy I have at this time" said Aris again.

Pradjna looked at Aris in surprise, then laughed afterwards.

"Job?!?!" tanyanya.

"Come on, it's still too early to joke Haris Rahardjo" Pradjna said with a laugh.

"I am seriously Pradjna Paramitha Wijaya" replied Aris.

"I decided to get out of the house last night, also resigned from the company and I did not bring anything except this bag pack and 3 hundred thousand pieces" explained Aris who made Pradjna stop his laughter immediately.

"I was forced to marry Vienna, I refused, I will only marry you not with anyone else, I'm better off alone than to hurt any other feelings again" Aris said.

Pradjna was caught hearing of Aris's confession. The man did it again. He opposed and challenged his mother for himself. Once more.

"Hm..well, we will check first if there is a position that is right for you, I do not promise but in the effort" said Pradjna after a moment of silence.

"Hana, please come to my room for a moment" Pradjna called Hana over the phone.

Hana enters Pradjna's room with Dave. Dave immediately approached Pradjna hugging and pecking Pradjna's cheeks. Aris and Hana stiffened at the sight. Even Aris's hand was clenched instantly. Pradjna was just plain, he discussed some things with Dave at his desk, then said until he met at home. Dave had looked at Aris for a while before coming out of the room, Aris also looked at him with an indescribable gaze.

"Well, Ms Hana, please check do we have a job that Mr Haris can handle? He's here to ask us for help with our work" Pradjna said after Dave disappeared behind the door. Hana looked at Pradjna and Aris with confused faces. His eyes asked Pradjna.

"Pak Haris has just resigned from his office and now he asks to join us" Pradjna replied. He sips his coffee, allowing Aris to drink as well.

"Before Mr. Haris as CEO, if you join us, only Ibu Pradjna can give you the position you deserve" replied Hana.

"I hope my position is safe" continued Hana again with a little laugh.

"Hopefully this isn't a prank huh Mr. Haris, a surprise morning today" Hana actually laughed later.

Hana stands towards Pradjna's desk, typing her finger on one of Pradjna's open laptops.

Pradjna looked at Aris questioningly, waiting for his approval. Aris nodded quickly.

"Alright, after this you can immediately meet with the HRD section for job desk details and more" explained Hana.

"Is there anything else?" ask Hana to Pradjna.

"It seems like enough, thank you, you can go back to your room again" Pradjna replied. Hana then passed from the room.

Pradjna stood up to his desk, pulled out a desk drawer and pulled out a key.

"Aris!" call him.

"It's actually been a while, but maybe it's the right time this time" Pradjna dropped a key to Aris.

"What's this?" ask Aris.

"The apartment key you gave me. The last tenant moved out a month ago. You better stay there" Pradjna replied.

"So you said you left everything, right? Do not let you catch a cold because there is no place to live" continued Pradjna again while his hand stretched holding the key. Aris stepped closer to Pradjna standing right in front of the woman.

"Is that man your husband?" asked Aris sharply.

Pradjna looked fixedly at Aris "Did it weigh you down?" Pradjna asked back.

Aris pulled Pradjna into her arms, looking at the two round eyes, looking for answers to her questions just now.

Pradjna held his hand against Aris's chest, honestly he wanted to hug the man, Hana was right, it was not extinguished, a little sprinkling would go back to burning him and it started to feel hot, it started to burn, no...he started burning himself more precisely.

"The way you're happy" a disappointed tone was thrown from Aris' mouth, his face between hurt and angry.

"I'll stay here, make sure you're okay, if I know he made you cry, don't ask me to stop when I teach him a lesson" Aris continued.

Then he lowered his head, peeping at Pradjna's lips.

Pradjna was electrocuted when Aris suddenly kissed him. It still feels the same as before, his eyes even had time to blur and a tickling feeling in his lower abdomen made his heart beat 3 times firmer and a red hue on his face appeared. He felt so ashamed.

Aris then took off her embrace, rubbed her rough face, then looked at Pradjna.

"I'm sorry, I better get to work, than I can't control myself" Aris said, stepping to the door.

"Thank you for the help, I'll work my best" Aris continued at the door without turning her back.

Pradjna was still standing in his place, gathering again his consciousness. He was also washed away earlier even though only a glimpse of Aris' lips greeted his lips.

His face immediately faded again.
