FRIENDS ... (Our Story)
Friends 43.1
"tell me everything" Andra said.
They are now in the VIP room of the cafe. Andra deliberately chose a special room so that they could freely talk.
"i want to investigate the Davidson family's son" Narra said.
"why do you want to know ?" andra asked, she looked at Narra who was bowed in front of her.
"because I suspect, I know their son but I'm afraid I'm wrong in this. I don't dare" Narra said looking at Andra.
"who's the Davidson family's son ?" ask Andra.
"Faya" Narra said at last.
Andra leaned on her chair. He tried to digest Narra's intention.
"i'm afraid I'm wrong about this but I want to prove it"
"why do you hesitate to tell me ?" ask Andra.
"because I was afraid of being wrong, I asked Rayyan for her opinion and it turns out that Rayyan said I should dare to talk to you because I can't keep secrets from my future husband" obviously Narra.
Andra grabbed Narra's hand and rubbed the back of his lover's hand.
"i'll help you investigate, you don't have to fear wrong. At least we've tried to prove it" he said.
Narra nodded.
"but I beg you to be patient for a moment, we take care of our engagement after that we take care of the others"
"yes, I'm sorry I tried to keep it to myself"
"dear, I'm glad you finally told me everything" Andra said.
He rubbed Narra's cheek. Narra smile.

Today Narra woke up a little late. Fortunately he did not enter work, he had asked Arjuna for permission not to enter work for three days. Before the engagement, event day and after the event.
Narra checked his phone. There were messages and some missed calls.
Calls and messages from Mike's assistant.
Narra patted his eel. Why could he forget that he was waiting for news to meet Ardhan today.
Narra opened the message.
[morning Miss Narra, boss Ardhan is ready to meet you at 9 this morning]
Narra looked at his wall clock. It's past eight o'clock. He has less than an hour to prepare.
Narra replies to a message from Mike's assistant.
[sorry Mike, I just saw your message. Yes, I'll be there soon. Thank you]
After the message was sent, Narra rushed into the bathroom.
He had to go to Ardhan immediately to resolve their cooperation problem.
"father, mother, Narra go yes" she told her father and mother who were sitting on the porch watching her employees finish before opening the shop.
"loh didn't you today already permit Na ?" ask Flanella's mom.
"yes ma'am but this is an important matter that was delayed yesterday" Narra said, kissing the backs of his parents' hands.
"be careful Na" Sasmita's father said.
Narra nodded while wearing his helmet. He's driving his bike to Ardhan's office.

Andra perused the file on her desk. He is still not on leave because there is still a lot of work that must be handled directly by him.
"bro, you better not push yourself too much. Let me and the team take care of it. Tomorrow's your show" Alex said.
"yes I know bro, after finishing this I'm going home for a break" Andra said.
Indra entered Andra's room.
"is there anything I need to help you with again ?" tanyakanya.
"how about factory review ?" ask Andra.
"i asked my assistant to go there. I checked the sales report" Indra said.
"good ! during my time off, I handed back the company to you" Andra said.
"well brother, brother take it easy" Indra gave her thumbs up.

Narra sat on the guest sofa of Andra's room. He was a little uncomfortable in this room because his picture with Ardhan was still framed on Ardhan's desk. He could clearly see the photo from his seat.
Ardhan sat on the sofa in front of Narra.
"why does the photo still exist ?" narra asked as she looked at Ardhan's desk.
Ardhan followed Narra's line of sight.
"because the taste is still there" he said.
"we're over Ardhan" Narra said.
Narra sighed.
"i'm sorry Mr. Ardhan, I ask that you cancel your intention to terminate our cooperation contract" he explained.
"on what basis do you ask that ?" ask Ardhan.
"on the basis I can finish this ad on time as we agreed" Narra replied.
"but I have conditions for you"
"what ?" ask Narra.
"i want you to be with me all day like we were together" Ardhan said casually.
"what ? this is crazy Ardhan. Sorry Mr. Ardhan, I can't do it" Narra tried to get back to being formal.
"because you're getting engaged tomorrow ?" ask Ardhan.
Narra nodded, "there is a feeling that I have to take care of" he said.
"that's the only condition, consider our farewell" said Ardhan again.
Narra.
If he refuses Ardhan's request, he's afraid he'll impact the company he works for. But if he does, that means he's in trouble with Andra. Because Andra must have strongly disagreed with her spending time with Ardhan.
Andra will be very jealous and her emotions explode. Narra did not want Andra to hurt herself.
"i want a letter of agreement on the seal" Narra said.
"meaning ?" Ardhan squinted his eyes.
"i don't want you to disavow Ardhan. After this you will not ask for anything beyond your limits and you will not cancel our cooperation project" Narra explained.
He spoke informally. He thought, he would do this for Ardhan to completely stop bothering him.
This time it was Ardhan who was silent.
"well, I'll have my secretary make the letter of agreement" he said later.
"i'll make it" Narra grabbed her phone.
He started typing on the word app on his phone.
After reading it carefully, Narra borrowed a printer that was in Ardhan's workspace. He prints it and hands it to Ardhan complete with the pen he took on Ardhan's desk.
Ardhan read carefully, then he crossed out some parts of the contents of the letter and handed it back to Narra.
Narra read back to find the point that Ardhan corrected. He looked at Ardhan, he objected to the replacement writing that Ardhan requested.
"or this covenant does not exist" Ardhan said, looking back at Narra indifferently.
Narra again corrected the content of the agreement he made. When he finished, he handed it back to Ardhan.
"are you happy that I'm getting away from you ?" ardhan asked, looking at Narra after putting the letter on the table.
"we can't be friends if you still feel the same way about me" Narra said calmly.
"i still love you Na" said Ardhan.
"but we can't be Ardhan, I've chosen ka Nda" Narra replied.
Ardhan closed his eyes tightly for a few seconds. Until the moment he opened his eyes and looked at Narra softly.
She still loves Narra very much but Narra no longer wants to be with her.
Finally Ardhan signed on the seal of the agreement.
Narra also did the same after Ardhan. He signs in the column next to Ardhan's signature.
He went to the print and made a copy.
"you hold the copy and I hold the original" Narra said, handing over a copy of the agreement to Ardhan.
Ardhan receives a copy from Narra and heads to his desk. He kept the copy in a drawer.
"your time starts now with Ranarra Sasmita" Ardhan said.
"well, I won't be formal" Narra said.
In his mixed heart, he was like a thief who was afraid of being discovered.
He didn't want Andra to know this. But if Andra finds out, he must be ready for all the explanations. He could only hope, Andra understood his circumstances.
*
Andra is done with her work at the company. He has also released his father for work in the hospital.
Now that she wants to see Narra, she misses her lover so much.
"i stopped by for ice cream first, Narra must be happy" he murmured.
He turned his car into the parking lot of the ice cream shop.
With a carefree step he went inside.
"mocca chocolate ice cream" he said to the waiter standing behind the table.
The waiter immediately made Andra's order.
