First Boyfriend Second Candidate
First Boyfriend Second Candidate 9
The sound of the glasses clinking to each other. Nando celebrates Tata's birthday. Of course with the permission of Brother-in-law. Even though Tata's fiancee still needs permission.
"Well, are you okay?" the girl's pale face was very visible in Tata's eyes.
"I'm fine Tata, what about your wedding preparations?" trying to divert the conversation.
"Ah, it's eighty percent. We just need to prepare a few things, one thing worries me. The dress I ordered was still a bit long," Tata sighed fearfully, if her dress was not completed in time.
Ega stroked the back of Tata's hand, "Quiet, don't worry, your dress can definitely be finished prematurely," her outstretched hand burned meat and shrimp that had been covered with spices.
Ega's soft speech can make Tata's heart can be a little relieved.
"Do you need help, Nando?" Saka stopped chewing, his head turned to give a faint nod of his head, confirming Chris' speech.
"For the moment not. Later if there's something urgent I'll ask for help." Take the piece of meat put it on Tata's plate.
"Get you eat a lot, too" Chris did the same thing as Nando on Tata. Makes the others smile seeing Chris' treatment like that.
"Oh yeah, Rani how's your grandma doing now?" before answering Rani swallowed the leftovers in her mouth and drank a little water.
"Grandmother is well, now my mother is taking care of dan—"
"Now he's keeping me day—night, getting weird." Saka hurriedly interrupted.
Rani mendelik his words cut off Saka and now she is accused like a stalker.
Saka's lover groaned in annoyance, putting down a rough spoon. Speak with explosive emotions. "Originally you know. When I got home from grandma's house, I found lipstick traces on her shirt," pointed Rani towards Saka with her chin, "And it's not one but two, on the back and front," folding his hands on the chest glanced at Saka sharply.
"Not true, there we immediately release the miss dear. The next morning you tidied up my clothes and saw that. I explained it but you don't believe me, what can I do?" drinking the beer he just opened.
"Who's lipstick?" Ega spontaneously made a sound, his face grew pale looking down and his shoulders trembled.
"Well, are you okay?" Chris looked quickly. I looked at the sweet girl's sad look. Putting a spoon on the plate, his outstretched hand grasped Ega's finger.
Ega does not understand why it still hurts just hearing the word lipstick on the shirt. In tears, tremors in the body increase. Ega does not want to be like this, crying because she remembers everything in her past. It's torturous.
All eyes stared at the pain. Rani biting her lips a little strongly felt guilty. He forgot Ega was still traumatized when he mentioned a little about the affair.
Rani stood closer to Ega hugging the tiny shoulder from behind.
"Sorry," his voice shook.
"Come on." Tata tweet.
Tata asks Ega to get up and takes her to the guest room. Hearing the door close, the men especially Nando and Saka glanced at Chris. The man looked down with his hands firmly clenched.
"Chris, I'm sorry— Rani must have been accidentally." Chris did not reply, the man's gaze sharpened with a hardened jaw. Remembering Ega was crying that night.
"Woi. Woi. Relax dude, Saka's already apologizing." Nando who was afraid to see the fierce face of Chris.
Chris opened his voice, telling the events of the night after the meeting, throughout the story he never stopped swearing for Rendi.
He regretted his idea of installing a silencer for the meeting room. Because according to him the sound from the outside can break the concentration during meetings. So, a few years ago he decided to install a silencer.
Nando and Saka who had been listening to Chris's story, were angry with Rendi's behavior. They do not think Rendi can be very reckless.
"Chris, you take it easy, sooner or later Ega will be able to escape from that fucking memory," Nando calmed down, taking the big bottle of soda in front of Chris to pour into the glass.
The door sounds open. The men in the living room looked over. Chris grimaced to find Ega's messed up face, nose and eyes looking red.
Chris stood up in his suit again draped on the white sofa, stepping over to Ega.
"Wanna go home?" and again his friends are in shock, hearing the vocal Chris can be so soft.
Ega muttered in response. Grab a bag and say goodbye to everything there.
Rani approaches Saka. Sitting on the lap of his royal man. Both of Rani's hands were coiled around her lover's neck, hiding her head there. She cried.
Saka replied to Rani's embrace, stroking the back, when he heard Rani's small sobbing he closed his eyes for a moment. Kissing a woman's forehead who's in the thick of guilt. He knew Rani was unintentional, and he just needed to give her a sense of calm.

Approximately one hour Taka in a place full of blitz and big lights. He had purposely come just to see Kania. In his heart he misses someone who is not his lover. Those black eyes were only focused on staring at Kania's expression.
He was happy to meet Kania again, but reality seemed to be slapping strongly. Recalling the conversation of Kania and Poldi some time ago.
Kania's smile rose, seeing the results of today's photo shoot. Beautiful models there always smile does not show a tired face, even though they have done this from 4 almost 5 hours ago.
Hearing Shino say it is finished, Taka decided to approach Kania who was checking the photos on the laptop screen.
"Perfect, miss." Young photographer Shino smiled at the beautiful model in front of her.
"Thank you." Kania lamat. "Is there any more?" ask her with focused eyes to see the results of today's photo shoot on the laptop screen.
Shino shook her head weakly. "No, for today it's over. Tomorrow don't forget the morning you have to be here." Shino put the camera near the laptop.
"You're done," Kania looked up, the attention on the laptop screen split apart hearing the familiar voice.
"You're here?" what kind of stupid question is that! Kania, cursing in your heart, it's obvious that Taka is in front of you, you idiot.
Taka chuckled for a moment. "I'm obviously here and you're still asking?" a red tinge appears in the added shading that he uses adds to the effect of menor on the face.
Shino smiled, since when did Taka care about the model. For more than five years he worked for this company. And this is also the first time, he saw the CEO coming and monitoring the photo shoot.
Probably an exception for Kania. Shino was self-conscious enough to not be long between them.
"Can we have dinner?" Taka himself was surprised by what he said.
Seeing Kania's surprised look. Taka looked down at his own shoes. He knew there would be rejection.
Things are different in taste by Kania. The sweet girl felt that there were butterflies tickling in her stomach. Still can't believe Taka's taking dinner. It may seem excessive but Kania is looking forward to this.
Just now he wanted to answer 'yes'. His rational mind is distracted, given the fact that Taka already has a lover.
"Taka," called Kania gently making Taka's attention stare expectantly.
"A.aku—"
"Cania." The girl turned her head, finding Poldi walking over.
Kania nodded in response. Netra Poldi turned to look at Taka who was standing stiff.
"I want to stop by the jewelry store, they're telling me the ring's ready." Taka's gaze changed pias, his heart pounding violently broke into pieces.
Taka's head looked back down at the black shoes again with a blank look. The iris of the man's eyes circled towards the back of what he was looking for.
Taka held his breath, while catching a happy twinkle on Kania's face, "Alright, I can go home alone." Taka's head turned quickly to hear Kania's words.
Poldi stared at the worried Kania, it's already curfew it's impossible to let Kania go home alone.
Poldi. "No, Kania, I got you a taxi." Take out a thin, sophisticated square object and type something there.
Poldi's typing movement stopped hearing Taka's speech.
"May I drop him off, I mean I—he's my friend, you don't have to worry."
Taka feels like a clown here. Shamelessly asking permission to both on the other person's fiancee.
Poldi's eyebrows go up one. "Sorry sir, is it not a hassle? You're the boss here, don't tell me you want to take her to dinner. Is this some kind of date?" Poldi smiled mystery.
Taka cursed loudly in his heart. Was it clearly written on his face? Oh, embarrassing.
"Poldi," Kania annoyedly hit her arm and glared. Poldi chuckled at the slightly embarrassed Kania.
"So, you want to go on a date with her, too, huh?" charge the man with a witty look.
Poldi stroked his chin, turned to the nape, glancing at the two awkward people in turn.
"Ok, you guys have fun–lah."
"I know enough of my limits, believe me I won't touch them." Poldi turned around for a while then her head was nosed.
"Sip. I'm going first. I'm putting Kania on you, Mr. Taka." Poldi smiled.
Taka snorted wryly, "He's safe with me." Kania smiled warmly looking at Taka. At least, for now only, he wanted to be selfish. Also feels no care for Taka's lover.
Without them knowing the red thread increasingly binds them to each other.
