GROANS OF DESTINY

THE S2 - CHAPTER 47

Char Bourget Restaurant

Aisyah was still sitting quietly in the restaurant while waiting for Serli's arrival, in contrast to Selvy who seemed impatient again so that from earlier she continued to wander into the parking lot.

Flashbacks

After writing the short script on her laptop, Aisyah immediately took the phone across the table to contact Serli.

"Hello sister" said Aisyah behind the phone.

"Hello Shah, Tumben called brother, what's wrong?" ask Serli.

"So gini brother, before sister was busy no?" ask Aisyah to make sure first.

There was a small laugh from behind the phone "hahaha if it is busy, surely everyone will be busy Shah, busy playing, sleeping, hanging out, work" explained Serli.

"Serious father, brother is busy working not now?" ask Aisyah back.

"Hmm... not too shah, most after an interview with a magazine reporter later brother no other important schedule, indeed why?" ask Serli curiously.

"I want to take my sister to lunch together" explained Aisyah.

"Well.. tumben nih, in what order?" ask Serli.

"There are my office friends who are fans of the same brother, sister has met his person at the cafe at that time really, only he did not know who the sister was" replied Aisyah.

"Owh where is it.. btw?" ask Serli.

"After brother deh, or in the nearest place from the office of the brother" explained Aisyah.

"Hmmm. how about in Char Bourget, there is good halal French food, hahaha when you call my sister remembered Riani who is in France, he said, besides the restaurant is also not far from your office really" explained Serli.

"Well, you can too, brother" nodded Aisyah.

"Then it was already yes, we met lunch time there yes" said Serli.

"Ok brother"

"Bye"

Aisyah stepped out of her seat after disconnecting the phone and peeking out from behind the glass of her office's view of the highway, while breathing tired Aisyah went to the closet in her room to pick up a book that was familiar to Alisya.

Love In Silence

Author by: Rini Yulianti

Blurb: It is too far for me to reach out to you until fate says something else for me, but who would have thought our destiny was only temporary, like the wind that blows away old leaves, our destiny ends so quickly. After the old leaves had run out on the broomstick, our story also ended that quickly...

Riani smilingly looked at the book "So she did not intend at all to make this story happy end huh" murmured Aisyah as she put the book back on the shelf.

Alisya turned back to the pile of documents from yesterday on her desk, one by one the document was signed after Aisyah read.

A few hours later, Aisyah's lunchtime dropped out of her room and met Selvy who was on the staff part of the manager.

"Come on!" exclaim Aisyah.

"Serli wants to!?" surprised Selvy looks happy.

Aisyah nodded her assent while continuing her steps to the parking lot followed by Serli.

***

From behind the glass of the 2nd floor restaurant, Aisyah saw a black car with the Cadillac Escalade ESV brand has been neatly displayed in the restaurant parking lot.

A woman with a gray blazer followed by a long hair stel with waves from shoulder to waist and the sunglasses the woman wore made it clear that she was Serli Aulia, the popular female lawyer behind this, especially with her status whose issues are still single. Although Aisyah herself is not sure of the issue, because Aisyah knows among her 3 friends Riani brother during her time in Oxford that insignificance is indeed only Serli.

After a few minutes Serli arrived before them while his lips smiled thinly.

"Udah message?" tanya Serli who was shaken by Aisyah.

Serli nodded in understanding then called the waiter who was in the Restaurant by raising his right hand, a female servant in a black blue uniform came while carrying a note in his grasp.

"Order 3 special menus today yes" said Serli was embraced by the waiter.

Selvy was still staring in admiration Serli without being able to say a word. Serli turned his head because he felt a little uncomfortable in the long face.

Selvy nodded quickly.

"Are you funny, do you like me?" ask Serli again.

Selvy's face suddenly flushed red as she continued to nod answering Serli's question.

Aisyah stared at the astonished behavior of her office friend that seemed strange to Aisyah.

Finished chatting briefly waiters came to bring food that had been in Serli's message earlier, they ate the food greedily while joking lightly.

"What do you like about me Selvy?" asked Serli while sipping his cold drink.

"I like the achievements of my brother in law so far, my brother's intelligence in turning things around and it's also not separated from the beauty of big brother hehe" Selvy laughed.

"Hahaha can that be? hmm.. but it is also, oh but why don't you idolize Aisyah's sister as well, isn't Riani better in every aspect than me?" ask Serli curiously.

"If Riani's brother is different again the story is sis, Riani's brother works abroad so I don't know much, besides that because Riani's brother is Aisyah's sister so I don't have any interest, so I don't have any interest, aisyah took pride in it too" Selvy joked.

Aisyah frowned at Selvy who immediately made Selvy shut up making Serli laugh at the behavior of the two women.

Tring...

Serli and Aisyah reflexively retrieved their HPs that were in their respective bags after hearing the sound of the phone.

"Hahaha my HP is the sound" Selvy said as she reached for her phone.

Serlvy's face immediately turned into shock and limp after answering the phone call was "sorry, Brother Serli, Shah. I was told to return to the office as soon as possible with the boss, because there is a new publication that wants to establish a cooperation contract" explained Selvy embraced by Aisyah and Serli.

"Do you want to go with me to the office? your bike is still in the office, right?" aisyah.

Selvy shook her head quickly "no need, I took a taxi, you just spent the food first rather than redundant!" selvy exclaimed as he hurried away from the restaurant.

After Selvy's back was not seen again, Serli opened his mouth asking Aisyah something "what about your situation Shah? is it better?"

"What brother?" aisyah asked pretending to be confused.

"You have a dilemma in the household, right? because of the love in your brother's silence?" ask Serli whose guess is one hundred percent correct.

Aisyah took the tissue on the table while cleaning her mouth "huh.... eyes of the lawyer can not be trivial right, by the way you know where? wasn't that when my question wasn't too much about there?" ask Aisyah.

"As you said earlier, the lawyer's eyes can't be fooled" Serli joked.

"Well, for the Shah, who passed let it pass, the point is that we are both happy now, brother Riani is happy with his household with Brother Albern, and the Shah was also happy with the Shah's household" explained Aisyah.

"You didn't mean to tell you that Riani ever liked her?" ask Serli.

"No will" Aisyah replied quickly.

"So you don't want to know Andi's facial expression and what will she think after knowing that Riani likes her?" asked Serli who immediately made Aisyah silent.

"Don't I just do that to ruin our household? besides it is also useless, especially I do not want to make Riani disappointed if the love in silence is not awake anymore especially I am quite sure Riani no longer have feelings with Andi mas" aisyah.

"You really don't mind that?" ask Serli to make sure.

Aisyah shook her head "let the time determine all this later, brother, I am sure of the taste of Andi mas to me, especially at this time I am also pregnant so I do not want a lot of thoughts" explained Aisyah.

"Are you really pregnant!? congratulations to Shah!" serli looked happy.

"When did you know that Riani likes Andi?" ask Serli.

Aisyah thought for a moment "initially it was just my guess, I know Riani liked someone who must have been her pesantren at that time, I knew, because after Riani's brother returned home when he graduated Aisyah initially knew from there, but unfortunately Aisyah did not know who it was, she said, after Aisyah compiled all of our puzzle stories lately Aisyah became convinced that Riani's brother liked Mas Andi" explained Aisyah.

"So you don't care about that?" ask Serli curiously.

"That's not a thing to be concerned, brother knows itself is not this not yet how compared to what was released by brother Riani for the sake of Aisyah, I know, when Aisyah first told that Aisyah was close to Mas Andi, often venting Aisyah's relationship with Mas Andi on Riani's brother, Kak, brother Riani remained faithful to listen to him by putting on an expression how without making Aisyah even a little suspicious, even though at that time brother Riani still had feelings for Mas Andi, so Aisyah was the one who should be in trouble" aisyah.

"You are really the same as Riani ya Syah, always thinking a thousand times something before acting, to your patience always without a minimum limit" said Serli.

"Owh yes brother back first yes Shah, there are some more work to be done, if there is something you can kok confide in brother" said Serli with a small laugh.

"Thank you, sister" said Aisyah as she nodded and looked back at the view from outside the window. After a few hours Aisyah returned to her office to restart work.
