He is, Amaya

We're Just Dancing

"Where is Lani, why isn't she visible?"

Amaya and Ari chose to sit together, watching the guests that afternoon who were dancing to the music.

Amaya looks around and finds no where Lani is.

"He's not here!" said Ari indifferently. Amaya nodded, occasionally noticing Ari enjoying her meal. "Why not dance?" ask Ari suddenly.

Amaya nodded and immediately threw away her face, she was caught watching as the man raised his face. Ari's thick, curved eyebrows shot upwards with her lips tightly clenched. "What do you see?"

"Nothing, sir!"

"lik! Caught watching other people, you said no. Does Dave know that his girlfriend likes to steal his own cousin's eyes?"

Amaya looked at Ari who was grinning. He sighed softly and said, "I'm not stealing glances with you. I'm just questioning the reason why you look so calm when I ask you about Lani!"

"really?" Amaya nodded. "What do you want to know?"

"Not one!"

"Squeen!" cibir Ari's. He chose to enjoy his food again. "How does it feel to be accepted by Aunt Rose as her son's lover?"

Amaya was initially watching the guests dance and then turned her attention to Ari. "Of course happy. What is the reason Mr. Ari asked that?" amaya asked, even though she knew the reason the man in front of her asked so.

The man just cleared his throat. He finished his meal and returned Amaya's gaze. "Maybe you know about my relationship with Lani. In the office, even if we never tell everyone, they still know. Especially at that dinner. Even though Lani and I didn't tell you, you still know!"

Amaya nodded. He watched Ari who downed his drink and called the waiter to ask for a drink back.

"It must be hard for Lani, all employees think you are deliberately hiding the relationship. Lani also once told me that she envied me. He wants to also be recognized as a lover, Sir, by your parents!"

"It's always the problem. What do you think I should do?" asked Ari who looked so frustrated.

Amaya answered. However, her already opened lips closed tightly as Gabriella and Leo approached them.

"What are you guys doing here? You want to seduce my sister, huh?" accused Gabriella, the look in her eyes radiated dislike that anyone could see her to Amaya, especially Ari and Levi.

"Why seduce a man who already has a girlfriend?"

"You have a boyfriend too!" obviously Ari who is possessed by Amaya.

"Will Maya dance with me?" Amaya notices Levi asking her to dance and turns to look at the sour-faced Gabriella. Knowing if there was a lurking danger alarm, Amaya chose to reject it. "Why? Come on, after all, when else would Brother dance with a handsome young man like me?"

Amaya smiled faintly then shook her head, as a rejection. "Ngapain, anyway, Lev, take her dancing. He knows that. It's even embarrassing for you" said Gabriella rudely as she dropped her ass on the chair.

"You're right, I can't dance!"

Levi shook his head, he grabbed Amaya's hand and insisted on asking her to dance. "Come, Brother. I'll teach you how to dance, and no one's boyfriend will get angry anyway. Right now we're both single!"

Amaya got up to her feet, before moving away from Ari and Gabriella, she stared at them alternately. He then sighed and nodded in agreement. "All right!"

"Geev!" gabriella exclaimed in annoyance as Levi ignored her and invited Amaya to dance among the guests.

Amaya looked awkward as Levi told her to put her hands around her neck, while she held Amaya's waist. "Don't tense, brother. Just relax!" Amaya just nodded, even though she was really uncomfortable.

"I asked Gabriella why she doesn't seem to like you. Want to know what the answer is?" Amaya nodded. "Because Big Brother has already dared to snatch his potential fiancee!"

Amaya looked at Levi who was laughing a little and leaned over to whisper, "If Big Brother gets dumped by Big Brother's girlfriend, just come to me. I'll gladly accept, I'm still single anyway!"

"Why? What if Ella manages to get Big Brother's girlfriend?"

"If that happens, I'll leave them!" Amaya glanced at Gabriella who seemed to be holding back jealousy. She smiled a thin smile and refocused her dance. "She seems to like you!"

***

Amaya and Dave are having a fried rice dinner in front of the hostel. Dave accidentally intercepts the cart fried rice seller and invites Amaya to have dinner together when she comes in a state of starvation.

"Why do rich people love to party like that, sir?" ask Amaya while enjoying her spicy fried rice. "Truly a waste of time!"

He was curious and regretted their actions. Although it was fun and it was their right to waste money, it still felt strange to Amaya.

Dave did not immediately reply, he asked Amaya to take his bribe. "To spend money and replace the time they left behind, May. After all, their purpose is to work until they forget the time to enrich themselves, yes, because they want to show off and get praise or honor. That's not all, yeah!"

Amaya nodded. "So I heard there was a dance, did you follow along?"

Amaya nodded back. He bribed his fried rice and felt uneasy as Dave glared at him. Looks creepy. "Who are you doing that with?"

"Levi!" great-grandson Amaya.

"That son of a bitch, what is he doing to you?" dave's asking was full of emotion.

"We're just dancing, sir. There was nothing else after that because she just left with Gabriella!"

Dave squinted his eyes, then leaned his body towards Amaya. With a probing look, he asked, "Is he really not doing anything to you? It looks suspicious, May!" Amaya nodded. "I really can't believe it, May. Not that she doesn't believe you, but I'm sure she wants something."

"Father was right, he said he was ready to accept me when you dumped me!"

Dave snorted annoyed. He bribed his fried rice greedily. "That's not gonna happen. Besides, I just love you, so where could I possibly do that, May?"

Amaya shrugged both of her shoulders. "But, May, can you change the call for me? Don't be too stiff either."

"Can when we're just the two of you, be it at the office or outside, you don't call me that? Call a special name or nickname, May!"

"Sorry, it's a habit! I'll try!"

Dave's beating. "I want tomorrow when we meet at the office, I've heard you no longer call me father alone! I think I'm your father."

Amaya did not answer. He chose to enjoy the fried rice while continuing to think about Ari's words earlier. Amaya really feels sorry for Ari who must be very depressed.

***

Amaya came to the office earlier than Dave. He forgot something yesterday because he had to go to the wedding party.

Several times, Amaya trains to greet Dave with a call that she has been on since last night. Strange indeed, at times with others can be relaxed, but with Dave he is so stiff.

He was so nervous when he heard the footsteps approaching him. Swallowing her saliva roughly, Amaya smiled warmly at Dave and followed him into the room.

"May, this afternoon there's an agenda I'm going to meet with clients, right?" Amaya nodded. "You don't have to come, May. I can handle it myself!"

"All right!" After feeling that there was nothing more they discussed, Amaya came out.

In front of the door of the room, as she held the doorknob, Amaya looked back. He notices Dave signing some important papers and says something that makes Dave smile brightly.

"Good call, May. I like!"
