see you at the restaurant

Lana feels awkward and uncomfortable at first when she finds out Rayhan works in the same office as her. He tried to keep his distance and stay focused on his job as a financial secretary. However, as time went on, whenever Lana and Rayhan had to get in touch due to work, that awkward feeling started to fade.

Rayhan's presence became a daily routine for Lana, mainly because of their responsibilities in the office that related to financial records and ship movements. The habit of interacting with Rayhan made Lana feel at ease, and her awkward feelings slowly disappeared.

Lana begins to find comfort in being with Rayhan, even when they have to meet or talk more often.

They become increasingly familiar with each other due to the same job, and Lana finds herself happy with it. Although there was originally a desire to stay away, Lana could not help the comfort and togetherness that was growing between them.

However, behind that convenience, Lana does not realize that her behavior increasingly reflects the designation "disagreements."

Although she initially promised to keep her distance, she no longer felt guilty and instead enjoyed Rayhan's presence in her life. He was caught in a situation that went against his previous wish and continued on without realizing the consequences.

That night at the bustling Pinang Sebatang Restaurant with customers enjoying its signature meal.

Mr. West or his real name is Mr. Hutabarat, entering the restaurant room with a big smile.In the room all his financial staff who had gathered at the table prepared specifically for them.

"Good night, everybody!"greet the West sir.he is a man in his 50s with a figure who has a distended stomach. Although he is like that but he has a warm character and is also easy to get along with.

Like now, for example.

" Good night, Mr. West!

"Thank you, Mr. West. We are very happy to be invited to eat at this restaurant" said Mr Pitri.

"Together, yes, this is my way of appreciating the hard work and dedication of all of you in carrying out your financial tasks well"

" Okay, let's order some food! Choose whatever you like and do not hesitate to order this restaurant special food. I paid everything"

Some of the staff immediately moved in to order their favorite dishes, while others were still confused by the choice of food. Lana discussed with some of her co-workers about the menu they wanted to try.

"We don't have to worry about ordering expensive food today, do we? The West sir!"

"Rubber too! Yuk, order some fried rice and duck, that's my favorite here"

"Good idea! I also want to try grilled fish that he says is very good at this restaurant"

"Okay, I also order rice liwet and fried duck, as well as grilled fish, Western fish do not kapok ya, treat again hahaha "

This restaurant serves special dishes that are appetizing and make them more enthusiastic to taste it.

"Enjoy the food, yeah! Do not hesitate to try all the dishes available.

All the staff, "Thank you, Mr. West!"

They all savored the dish voraciously, sharing stories and laughter at the table together.

When all the financial staff is busy enjoying the dishes at the table filled with various delicious foods. Suddenly, Mr. West noticed the presence of Raihan who had just entered the restaurant.

"Hey, Rayhan! You came on time! Come, come eat with us!" call the West loudly.

This western sir is a Batak person so his voice is a little loud. But only his voice was loud while his heart was as gentle as knowing if he had known the person.

Rayhan who was summoned by the west originally went there to order food. Being called himself did not order food but directly directed his feet to their group.

"Thank you, Mr. West. I actually came to order food, but if I could join everyone, I'd love to!"

Says the sustenance people do not reject the enemy do not be sought.

"Of course I can! Sit here, next to Lana. There's an empty seat there" West said.

Lana smiled awkwardly but still greeted Raihan with pleasure."Hey, Ray, you came by yourself?"

"Yes, I came alone. want to invite Mia also she is far away right hehehe, eh umang what event is Lana?"

"Oh, Mr. West treat us for no reason, sir West is like that anyway his person"

The conversation between Lana and Rayhan sounded casual and friendly, although the awkwardness was still felt. However, the two of them were trying to enjoy dinner with their friends. Their views occasionally met each other, but they tried not to focus too much on each other.

Meanwhile, the atmosphere of the dinner was getting lively with jokes and stories from Mr. West and other financial staff. Rayhan joined the conversation smoothly, making himself feel comfortable in the middle of his office friends.

Dinner was full of joy and warmth. But it's all over when they finish dinner.

In the blink of an eye, everyone immediately resigned one by one as well as the West Sir.

Lana as an employee who has just started her career , she is given the task of paying for food today tonight.

So before leaving, the west sir had also left some money on Lana.

In other words, Lana was the last person to come out of a restaurant.

After paying at the cashier, Lana immediately rushed towards the parking area. He felt a little rushed, wanting to go home soon after dinner together at Pinang Sebatang restaurant.

Actually, Lana's been telling her she's going home late tonight to her mom. So there's no need to rush either.

But soon his gaze was fixed on Raihan who was still there and was talking on the phone.

"Okay, I'm waiting for you at a barn restaurant, Hem Okay" Rayhan said on the phone.

According to the contents of the conversation earlier it seems like Raihan is waiting for someone to pick him up.

Lana approached Raihan with doubtful steps, whether she was too aggressive or not huh.

Lana thought for a while Soraya noticed that her motorcycle was parked not far from there. The motorcycle is a white Honda Vario, who has become a loyal friend of Lana in various daily trips.

Strictly speaking, Lana greeted Raihan, "Hi, Ray.You're still waiting for a ride? I can drive you if you're not ashamed of my motorcycle anyway"

Raihan was somewhat surprised by the offer, yet he looked hesitant to accept. "No need to bother, Lana. I've ordered an ojek online."

"It's okay, the day is still bright and your destination is not too far away. I have a motorcycle, so I can take you and go home on time "

Rayhan gave a warm smile in response. Rehan is actually uncomfortable to accept a ride from Lana but, he still wants to make their rigid relationship more fluid.

Raihan agreed without thinking.

Meanwhile, Lana walks towards her motorcycle and releases the key from the bag.The key is directly thrown to Raihan so that the unprepared Raihan was surprised.

"Me?"asked Raihan who had not expected this.

Lana chuckled and said, "you're hugged by a girl later if you see people aren't you ashamed?"

Hearing that Raihan also laughed amusedly and immediately swiftly took over Lana's motorcycle.

In the heart Raihan was immediately happy because their relationship could be fluid because of this trivial conversation.

Mercifully.
