Niko looked at Kalila in disbelief. Darian really doesn't want to let go of Kalila. He bound her by marriage in return for the office given to Calila. And Niko understood correctly, if Kalila refused him to eat Darian would definitely suspect Kalila's real motive.
"What did you say? Darian wants to marry you?" Repeat Niko again.
Kalila nodded slowly. Niko breathed a heavy sigh. He rubbed his face violently.
"Then what about us?"
Kalila smiled faintly. Her hand stroked Niko's face gently. Although never said it, Kalila was well aware that her love for Niko had begun to grow. And he could not ignore that feeling anymore. But Niko had no sin whatsoever against Kalila. It would be very unfair if Niko had to be dragged into this cycle of revenge.
"Nothing's gonna happen to us, Niko. We can meet as usual, right? At my work hours for example." Say soft Kalila.
Niko looked at Kalila with a gloomy face. His eyes began to be shrouded in sadness because of the news that Kalila had just delivered.
"But you know how much I love you, Kalila. How could I possibly let you marry another man? Especially seeing you with him?" Niko lirih.
Kalila approached Niko again. This time kissing Niko's lips was soft and a little longer.
"I'm sorry for hurting your heart, Niko. But I have no other choice. You know how I'm in position, right?" Kalila said as she looked up and looked at Niko sincerely.
Niko immediately grabbed Kalila in her tight embrace. His hand was stroking the head of Kalila in front of his chest. While his lips continued to kiss the top of Kalila's head many times.
"You promise not to leave me?" Ask Niko slowly.
"Would never be. I'll always be with you, baby." Kalila said really.
Niko's ears are interested in hearing the call Kalila made to her. He raised Kalila's face and looked at her in surprise. But Niko could not hide her vast gathering.
"What did you call me?" Niko asked in disbelief.
Kalila laughed a little.
"Darling? Niko Baby?" Tempt Kalila with spoiled.
"Does that mean we're officially lovers now?" Niko asked back.
Kalila nodded. Niko's heart surged delighted to hear those words gliding from Kalila's mouth. Finally, after having been with Kalila for so long, that one-handed love was finally reciprocated as well.
"And I love you, dear Niko." Whisper Kalila before landing another kiss on Niko's lips. This time very passionate and deep.
And for the second time, the love game is back. So hot as the hot sun of Jakarta that shines hot outside.

THE CLUCK!
The magnificent door in the palace of Darian Chatra Wijaya opens. Darian who heard his voice immediately turned towards that entrance. Trying to guess who was entering his house and walking towards him.
"Calilla?" Ask Darian to guess.
The sound of the high heels remained close without answering Darian's question. The man began to look anxious because his lover could not be silent when asked by Darian.
That figure is getting closer. Every second of it felt extremely slow to Darian because of his helplessness. Without him noticing, his heart was pounding so fast as if it was about to jump off his ribs.
"Jawab my question! Who are you and what do you want?!" Jerky Darian.
The figure suddenly walked quickly to Darian's back. His hands coiled around Darian's neck gently but menacingly. Darian could feel the long fingernails of the figure perched on his neck. And Darian is convinced that whoever this is isn't Kalila. His girlfriend never extended her nails.
"Srsttt! Can't you just shut up?" The whisper of the figure was calm.
Darian freezing. Who'sisthis? He had never heard this foreign voice. How could this foreign woman just walk into his house?
"Don't you dare hurt me! I'll call the security guards in this house and drag you out right now!" Threaten Darian with a slightly trembling voice.
The figure laughed a little.
"What can a crippled man like you do, Darian? Killing me? Stand up you can't, Darian." Reply to the woman in a cold tone.
"Once you go, stop your fight. I'm not gonna hurt you. I'm even gonna have fun with you, Darian. Let's spend a very nice night!" Whisper the woman.
Then Darian felt a sharp stab in his neck. Whatisthis? Syringe?
The woman appears to be sticking a syringe filled with whatever fluid is in Darian's neck. A split second later, Darian looked limp and slowly lost his consciousness. In the rest of his consciousness, only one name was called continuously by Darian.
"Kalila. help me..."
***
Kalila stepped into the house she was staying with Darian. Today is his first day as President Director of PT Bara Kahuripan. And really Kalila never thought that it would be so exhausting. Only the chosen ones can sit in that position.
The atmosphere of the house was very quiet that night. The new time shows at seven o'clock. How strange. Usually Bu Yati will cook in the kitchen and the sound is quite noisy. And Darian will sit in the living room waiting for Kalila. With a blank look somewhere because of course Darian can not watch anything with his eyes.
And Hanna? No need to question. Ever since her face was destroyed, the woman seemed to lose her sanity. All Hanna did was lock herself up all day and sometimes clamor incoherently in her room. Every time Hanna went out of the room, it was just a mess she made. Because it was on the agreement of both her parents and Darian, Hanna would be locked up in her room and cared for by a nun.
But today, the house feels very strange. Like everybody goes somewhere. Kalila went looking for anyone she could meet.
"Dian? Yati ma'am? Where are you guys?" Kalila called out to the people at home.
"Squeaky. Where's everybody going?" Kalila was confused.
Kalila spread her shoulders as if she did not want to bother. He walked up the stairs to the main room. Of course he must greet and meet the crippled King. Who else if not Darian.
A few minutes walking, Kalila arrived in front of the room she was using with Darian. Without hesitation he pressed the doorknob and pushed the large door open. But the room looked a little chaotic. It was as if there had been such a hot struggle in the room.
Then Kalila's eyes caught a very surprising thing. Something he never thought he would. In her bed, on the mattress she had been using with Darian, Kalila saw another woman lying naked on it. And beside the woman, the same naked Darian slept soundly. With their arms cuddled together, the two of them seemed to sleep so soundly without realizing Kalila's presence.
Kalila. And no other word came out of his mouth but a cry calling out the name of the lover who seemed to be having an affair.
"DANCE!!!"
