At seven more than twenty minutes, Marco and Leon took turns pecking Icha's cheeks before leaving for the company. As for Ninda, don't ask where the girl is this early in the morning. Surely he still dives in the sea of dreams on a soft mattress.
"When are you ready to replace papa?" Marco asked as they were on the road to the office.
"Fastly, pa." Answer's short.
Marco laughed softly.
"Yes, you better solve your heart problem after that you have to replace papa." Marco's Temptation. "Because it is not good to lead the company with this urgency." He still seduces his son.
"Ck.. papa kayaks never experience." Timpal Leon. Marco laughing. He patted Leon's shoulder. It does not feel his son is an adult and maybe even soon he will have a son-in-law and grandchild.
The trip takes thirty-five minutes to get to the giant Guatalla family-owned company. As always, this father and son will be the center of attention of every employee who happens to cross paths with them. Marco always greeted all his subordinates kindly, even security would be humbly greeted by Marco.
Unlike Leon who is slightly flatter than the papa. Especially in this week it's really hard to get a smile from Leon. Ayu's shadow that eluded her several times made her days feel heavy and wrong. Either because of curiosity but also do not like the behavior of the girl.
"Morning, sir..." Rayhan who happened to be there first immediately greeted Marco politely.
"August, Ray..." Marco replied kindly and then patted Rayhan on the shoulder. "Thank you for helping Leon a lot." He expressed his gratitude towards his personal assistant's son.
Leon and Rayhan enter the director's room, while Marco steps into the CEO's room that he will soon leave.
"Still tangled, bro'..?" Rayhan asked with a mischievous smile.
"Ck.. still in the morning don't make my mood go away, Ray. I'll send you to the African hinterland." Getting a threat from Leon instead of making Rayhan afraid instead he laughed out loud.
"Much mutational." Ledek Rayhan's. "If I go there, who will help you finish all the work when you're upset?" He seduces Leon.
"Shut up!" Leon throws the pen in his hand at Rayhan but is quickly captured by his assistant.
"Haha.... You really need healing apparently." Ledek Rayhan again.
That's how they joke in between busyness and work routines. Rayhan is Leon's new assistant and best friend. He understands the nature and character of his boss.
Time continued to run until it did not feel it was 11 noon. Many files that Leon must examine so that he can forget his heart problems for a while.
Tok...
"Lake in!" Leon's orders without looking at the door. He already knew it must have been Rayhan who had deliberately come to check on him again.
"Leon." Marco's voice sounded.
Soon Leon raised his head to look at the father who was already in his room.
"Papa? Why not just call the intercom?" Leon got up from his seat approaching Marco.
"Now you're home." Marco's orders suddenly.
Leon frowned.
"Come home?" Resell ask. He glanced at the clock at the wrist. "It's 11 o'clock, pa. Why go home?" Ask wonder. Marco smiled at his son.
"There's Ayu at home. She's busy helping mom make cookies." Marco said. "Go home and try to meet him. Solve your problems immediately." Marco is serious.
Leon thought for a moment. Does he have to go home to see Ayu's reaction to him? Ah, just make this girl curious.
"Well, pa. I'm trying to meet him." Sahut Leon agreed because his heart was already impatient to see the beautiful face of the girl.
"Use your heart. Love always shows the right way to the right person." Marco said to his son. Leon nodded steadily.
With long steps he walked out of the director's room towards the lead elevator. The flat and serious face he showed was unable to cover up his curiosity and wanted to quickly get home.
By driving alone, Leon focuses on the streets that are not too crowded. His body was still on the road but his heart and mind had already reached the mansion.
Almost forty minutes into the mansion, Leon entered the spacious courtyard of his mansion. A mischievous smile implied on his lips.
"Son, how come home?" Icha who heard the sound of the car quickly came out to see who was coming.
"There are documents that I forgot to take, ma." Leon answered reasoned. "What fragrance is this, ma?" Ask Leon after reaching the living room.
"That's. si Ayu again make the same cake Ninda." Icha said while pointing towards the kitchen.
Hearing Ayu's name, Leon's heart flowered. There was a taste that was hard to express.
"Yes, you just take the documents first. mama wants to go to the kitchen take the cake for you to try." Icha said and immediately stepped into the kitchen.
The real Leon has no plans to retrieve the documents following Icha's steps towards the kitchen. From far away he had heard the noise of Ninda and Ayu.
The deg!
Leon's eyes caught a beautiful figure who had been in his memory lately. By using a simple dress along the knee and hair dyed high makes Ayu look very sexy in Leon's eyes.
"Backdirtyshe..." The sound of Ninda's bells dispels Leon's delusion of Ayu.
Ninda approached Leon and hugged him happily. Leon also returned the embrace of his sister, but his eyes continued to be fixed on Ayu.
"Sister try cake make me and Ayu, yeah." Take Ninda and pull Leon's hand into the kitchen.
Leon, who wanted to see Ayu, stood next to the girl.
"This, brother. Brother's favorite cake." Ninda shows ready-made cake setoples. Leon just nodded.
Tring... tring....
The ringtone of Ninda's cell phone that she put on the bar table.
"Yes, pa...." Say hello to Ninda to the caller. Turns out Marco called "In papa's study?" Ask Ninda. "OK deh... Ninda find first, yes, if you've met later Ninda tipped to sister aja." Ninda disconnected the phone.
"Sister. accompany Ayu, yes. Ninda's going to papa's office. Asked to find tender file last week. Papa forgot it like it." Ninda immediately left Ayu and Leon in the kitchen.
Don't ask how Ayu feels right now. Fear, shame, inferiority, nervousness, all kinds of mixed feelings that make his body like limp helpless. He was about to prevent Ninda from leaving him alone with Leon, but Leon's bullying gaze made Ayu's lips feel twisted and stiff.
However, this was an advantage for Leon. In his heart he was grateful because the father could control the situation even though he was in the office at this time. He smiled at Marco's game.
"Why avoid?" No need to get stale, Leon immediately asked something that had always disturbed his sleep.
He looked towards Leon. He frowned at the sign of not understanding the meaning of Leon's question. It seemed like he had to brave up against Leon.
"Dodging?" Tanya Ayu repeated Leon's question.
Leon's very sharp gaze really felt pierced into Ayu's heart. But he tried hard.
"Not pretend you don't understand." Crop Leon quickly. "Why is it that every time you meet, you avoid it?" Leon repeated the question.
Ayu kept busy forming a nastar cake in her hands. He did not know what was the right answer to Leon's question.
"I'm sorry, sir, maybe you misunderstood. I never avoid anyone." Gathering all her courage, Ayue answered Leon's question aloud without seeing the man's face.
"Sir???" Again Leon repeated the word Ayu said. "It wasn't like I always said never to call me that word." Leon reminds them of their childhood.
Ayu turned her head for a while towards Leon, then returned busy processing the cake batter in her hands.
"That was, sir. We're kids, we don't understand our status." Sahut Ayu's. Leon squinted his eyes. He doesn't like to hear Ayu talk about status.
Upset by Ayu's indifferent attitude and kept busy with the flour dough, Leon quickly pulled Ayu's hand a little rough so that Ayu's body was pushed closer to Leon's chest.
"I'm talking to you." Mumbled Leon furious. "Just answer my question why do you avoid every time we meet?" He nodded with a cold tone.
Ayu swallowed the saliva that felt dry. His heart was happy because it could see a handsome face that he could only imagine and longed for in silence. The smell of Leon's body makes him more complacent in Leon's arms.
However, he realized when his tears were almost full and welled up. Quickly, he let go of the hand held by Leon. He didn't want Leon to see him cry. Crying out of longing but she is also self-conscious if Leon is unlikely to like her who is just a former maid's son.
"I'm sorry, sir. I never avoid anyone." Ayu firmly repeated her words earlier.
Leon smiled cynically. His eyes from earlier could not be seen Ayu's eyes with annoyance but he could not be angry at the girl. He wanted to kiss the girl's lips and take her in his arms, but Leon realized that Ayu was avoiding him.
"Well, maybe you're right that I misunderstood." Leon Said. He approached Ayu and lowered his head until their faces were only a few inches away.
"If until I see you still avoid me, don't blame me if I'm going to make a calculation with you." Leon's whisper slightly threatened the gentle girl.
Ayu did not dare to look Leon in the eyes. He turned his face and held back with all his might to keep his legs firmly standing.
After saying that, Leon immediately left Ayu alone. Quickly, he held his hand against a large table so that his body would not fall.
So all this time he knew that I was always avoiding him? It flows in the heart.
"Well... Why are you, son?" Icha's voice startled Ayu's daydream. He immediately wiped away the tears from being seen by Icha. "You sick?" Ask Icha to worry.
"No, ma... Ayu is okay. Maybe because it's too long standing, Ayu's legs are tired." Tukas Ayu reasoned.
"Oooh." Icha stroked Ayu's back gently.
Yes, Icha does require Ayu to call her mama. So did Ninda who scolded her when she called Ninda the word 'non'.
"Well, honey.Where's Leon?" Ask Icha who just realized that Leon is not here. "Oh, maybe in his study, yeah." Connect Icha remembering if Leon came home because he wanted to take the documents that were left behind. Ayu just nodded slowly and tried to smile. "She's Leon this afternoon is weird. Suddenly the phone said she misses mom. It was only a few hours apart. That's why old mama left you here because of talking to papa Marco." Icha was upset but actually he was happy because Marco always gave a surprise at certain times.
"Where's Mama... Leon's brother?" Suddenly Ninda came and asked where her brother was.
"Maybe in papa's office. He said there's a document missing." Answer Icha while putting the nastar cake in the grill.
"Papa also called I asked to be sought'in the tender file in papa's workspace but there was none. Leon didn't go into papa's study either." Beber Ninda who felt there was a strange attitude between the attitude of brother Leon and papa who suddenly asked for an important file, whereas Marco was not the type who was careless. He was very thorough in all his work.
"Mr Leon's back in the company, ma'am. Last aunt saw you left with the car." The new hartini comes from buying wheat flour because it is lacking in the last dough mixture tells about Leon's whereabouts.
"Snack." Icha said along with Ninda, they finally laughed together.
Ayu did not speak at all. He deliberately busied himself to form a cake batter so that Icha and Ninda did not ask anything about Leon.
The shadow of the incident really makes Ayu lost for words, even losing her spirit. Fortunately, all the dough has been formed, so he can sit down and calm his heart and mind.
