Eternal Promises
The Part 28
Darwin immediately entered, he passed a table that was being sat by two people in his supervision. He intentionally did so to get their attention. And sure enough seeing Darwin, Kelvin called him.
“Win!”
Darwin looked over, smiling kindly. “Hai, good afternoon,” greet Darwin.
“Let's join Mr. Darwin,” take Haris a little stiff.
“Boleh, briefly I stay, there are affairs that I have to settle immediately.” Darwin quickly passed without waiting for an answer from the two.
After telling the maid her destination later that night, she immediately joined them.
“You healthy?” ask Kelvin.
“Sure, do I look bad?”
“Not, I feel like you're not what you used to be.”
“Really?”
“Forget. Oya, how's your wife doing?” kelvin asked later, he felt Darwin's behavior was a little strange today.
“They are good,” Darwin said briefly.
Kelvin kept staring at Darwin, if there was no Haris there he wanted to know what was happening to his best friend.
“Oya Win, recognize this Haris my cousin,” Kelvin said later.
Darwin again narrowed his eyes, if his cousin Haris means Kelvin also knows Yunita. Then why was Kelvin just silent when Darwin told him so much that day?
Darwin stared intently at Kelvin's eyes, and then he smiled. “We already know each other, open it so, Mr Haris?” Haris nodded as he continued to chew the food in his mouth.
Darwin's mind became increasingly uncertain. Who was his enemy, was he in the red circle that at any time he would bleed to death? Or is he just misunderstanding excessive worry?
After the meal, Darwin immediately pleaded with both of them. He can't keep pretending if he's been there any longer. But at the exit he passed by Dr. Razia.
“Dok, welcome,” greet Darwin.
“Oh, hi Mr. Darwin. Alone?” doctor Razia asked, she's with her husband. Darwin nodded, Doctor Razia immediately understood seeing Darwin in his office clothes of course there was no Asmira with him.
“Ya already, I'm sorry to first yes, Doc.”
“Good. Oya, next week Asmira's pregnancy check time yes, sir. Please take care that he does not have much thought.”
After confirming this, Darwin immediately drove back to the office in his car. Doctor Razia's words again ringed in his ears. How does he excuse his wife later if she is billed with a story that Darwin promised himself? Doctor Razia said he shouldn't be stressed.

Darwin contacted Valen when he arrived at the office, he really needed someone to express his concerns.
“Ya Win,” Valen says across.
“Halo, Mas. Again at the office?” ask Darwin.
“What's up, Win? I'm meeting outside. Coincidentally not too far from your office.”
“Let's meet, there's something I want to say.”
After deciding on the call. Darwin's mind he focused as much as possible to work on the project with Haris. Next week the latest design should be provided immediately. The project that was predicted to be completed within 6 months was enough to make Darwin inflamed.
He had never experienced a similar incident. Decades he had been in the business world he had never been toyed with in such a way.
“Excuse me, Sir.”
“I need your signature,” said Pratiwi, he poked several maps in front of his boss.
Darwin opened one by one, a smile adorning his lips. There was a satisfaction of his own that he felt with the work of the woman before him.
“I salute you Tiwi.”
Pratiwi lowered his head in acceptance of Darwin's praise. He already considers Darwin as his best friend, they have worked very long. Starting from Pratiwi just an ordinary employee, until he was like this.
“Thank you for your hard work, Tiwi,” Darwin said as he handed the map back. Pratiwi only smiled hearing the excessive praise expressed by his boss.
The clock shows at 14:30. Valen was waiting for Darwin at a cafe in front of Darwin's office. The people who arrive later, Darwin only need to cross.
They were sitting on the second floor by the window, facing directly onto the highway where many people were passing by. Accompanied by a cup of milk coffee, may make tired disappear after almost a day of activity.
“What's up?” ask Valen.
Darwin sipped coffee in his hand before he answered his brother-in-law's question.
“I'm in trouble, Mas.”
“Say.”
Darwin started telling stories one by one. He could not hide his concern about the problems he was facing. Valen heard quite well, he did not interrupt as long as Darwin asked.
“Please yourself first, Win. If you look fucked up like this, they easily stab you.”
Darwin took a deep breath. Then he breathed violently. “Come, Mas.”
“Do you suspect Kelvin?” valen asked right on target.
Darwin was silent, he had no answer to avoid, but he had no evidence to say yes.
“You know very well how Kelvin, do not easily believe, goods times someone scapegoat blacken him for personal interests.”
Darwin looked at Valen, there was a point that his brother-in-law said. About the incident at the Cafe yesterday, surely Haris knows if Darwin's side has known the investigation. It could be this time, he deliberately invited Kelvin to meet at his family's own Cafe Darwin himself to lure him with another purpose, which is to break the friendship of himself and Kelvin.
Darwin called Pratiwi. “Do they still follow Haris and Kelvin?”
“Still, Sir. From yesterday they followed Haris and Kelvin sir. But there has been no visible irregularities.”
“It looks like they played pretty neatly, Mas”" Darwin said later after the call with his assistant ended.
“Come dong, Win. You can, face them, don't let any loopholes drop you.”

Darwin returned home a little calmer. He felt a little relieved after telling Valen, sometimes hearing other people's opinions made his mind open again.
On his way home, he stopped briefly at the flower shop, he bought a bunch of red roses for his beloved wife as a sign of his apology. For once again, he could not tell Asmira, this matter would stress his mind. Darwin didn't want his son to do anything.
“There's a greeting, Sir?”
Darwin grabbed the paper, a beautiful word he wrote there. He immediately left the flower shop.
Arriving home, he passed by Mr. Yun, at the gate. The man was enjoying the twilight with a cigarette and coffee in front of him. From the beginning he worked, Darwin felt there was something strange, he did not look like a private driver in general.
“Good afternoon, Sir,” greet Mr. Yun.
Darwin nodded and smiled kindly, then he immediately stepped in with a bunch of pretty flowers in his hands that he had hidden behind his body. Mr. Yun smiled at the manner of his master.
