Happy After Parting With You

Chapter 37

Alvin got up from his chair and stepped closer to Rani, he took a seat next to the woman then held Rani's hands together.

"Ran, I beg you, never leave my side." Alvin said expectantly.

"I'm nobody, sir." Rani made the man aware and asked impliedly what he meant to the man.

"Ran, whether you realize it or not that I really like you."

Alvin's words made Rani really feel guilty, she did not not know the man's feelings. But he is not ready for a new relationship.

"I'm sorry, sir, I can't, I need some time to calm down. I beg you, Sir." Rani said with a face.

Alvin knows, yesterday's incident made Rani shocked and depressed. Alvin could understand, but he also did not want to lose the woman.

"Well, if that's your decision." Alvin said, sighed softly, "but I hope that decision will really change. Well, at least you can accept my feelings." Alvin chuckled as he tried to overcome this awkwardness.

Rani forced a smile on her lips, she herself did not know what her heart would be like. Will it be open and accepting of Alvin's love, or closed for good.

***

Rani is packing up at her house, she has decided to take a short vacation. His destination was Bali, after Alvin's house, he booked a trip for a week. He didn't tell anyone the purpose of his trip this time, not even his best friend Mira.

Rani will leave at eleven o'clock, so there is still four hours before her departure.she took the time to make breakfast first, instant noodles soup plus eggs and chili so her choice this time. Rani has not eaten instant noodles for a long time, and usually if the mind is stressed like this is more delicious then spicy noodle soup.

Rani takes her food to a table she puts near the window to enjoy eating while looking out the window. Rani was already going to feed her food when her doorbell rang, she felt there was no appointment with anyone this morning.

Rani peeked out from behind the curtains before opening the door, she gasped as she saw Arman standing in front.

"Hi!" Sapa Arman as Rani opens the door.

"Arman, what are you doing here?" Rani opened the door wider and invited the man to sit on the porch of her house.

"I happen to be walking around here." Arman's face was grim, "do you have an event today?" Ask Arman later and make Rani misbehave.

"Eh, that…." Rani scratches at her non-itchy nape, making Arman look at her in surprise.

"Do you have any plans to leave today?" Tanya Arman probed. Instead of answering Rani just gave a grin.

"Where are you going?"

"To Bali." Finally, Rani had to tell Arman where he was going.

"How long?"

"Maybe a week."

"alone." Rani answered with a nod of her head.

"I'm coming along."

"Don't I need some time alone."

Arman looked at the woman fixedly, trying to understand the situation that Rani was currently facing.

"All right, that's up to you. I hope you can take care of yourself. What time are you leaving?"

"Four eleven."

Arman then looks at the clock on his wrist, "i'm intervening."

"Don't, Man, I don't want to interrupt your work." Rani refuses because it feels bad if the man has to leave his job.

"I've been following your wish not to come even though I wanted to. So, please, let me drive you." Arman said with a full plea.

"All right, man, it's up to you."

After chatting and discussing other things Arman said goodbye to go home, more precisely back to his workplace. He promises to come again and take Rani to the airport. Rani returned to her place earlier and found that the noodles she was about to eat had expanded. His appetite immediately disappeared, he then threw the noodles into the sink.

"Someone wants to eat."

At eleven, less than thirty minutes Arman had arrived at Rani's house, the woman was also ready to leave. Arman helps Rani carry her bag and puts it in the trunk. They are ready to go.

Rani has not had time to ride in Arman's car, suddenly another car stops in front of Rani's house. The woman recognized that the car was Alvin's, so she stopped boarding Arman's car.

"Where are you going? And you, Man, since when was Rani close?"

Two questions were thrown from Alvin's mouth as soon as the man got out of his car, he looked at the astonishment of the two people in front of him. And again he thought since when Arman was close to Rani.

"I just want to take Rani to Bamdara." Reply Arman.

"Airport? Where is he going?"

"She said she was going to Bali." Reply Arman again, making Rani silent a thousand languages.

"Is that right, Ran?" Alvin asked, squinting his eyes.

Rani felt guilty, because yesterday she told the man that she had been accepted to work in Surabaya.

"That." Rani is unable to continue her sentence, while Alvin waits while folding both hands on his chest and his body leaning against the car.

"You said you were accepted to work in Surabaya?"

"Is that right, Ran?" Ask Arman.

Rani could not answer the two men's questions.
