After Gia finished telling her story with Grego's father and Om Joe, Gia also wanted to clean up first. He left the two men to complete their tasks that had been delayed earlier. But just now Gia disappeared from there, now appears Gio with his disheveled face. Grego and Joe who had just breathed a sigh of relief, instead had to exhale long and heavy.
" Why is that face so tangled? ask Grego.
Gio rested his body beside Grego. He breathed a bit heavy. Silence for a moment, then began to picture about the events that were being experienced lately.
" Well, Gio was confused as to what to do so that Gio could give him understanding and not interfere with Gio's life anymore." Gio leaned his head over the sofa while closing his eyes. Grego glanced at Joe as if asking for his opinion. Because Grego himself was confused to answer what to his son who was upset. Instead of answering Joe, he stared back at Grego sharply. It's like saying "Why are you asking me.?"
The two argue with each other using their own body language. Gio who felt that the two men had been silent for too long had no reaction or answer at all, opened his eyes and looked at the two of them alternately. And with reflex movements they both remained motionless.
" How Well, Om. Just be quiet, " said Gio.
The questions were just looking at each other and being silent. Then Joe opened his voice, "I think you should talk to him properly. Because according to Om's judgment a girl like her if the more you ban her in such a way she will get more reckless. Because it's getting challenging for him." Grego even the mangosteen listened to Joe's words.
" Om you're right. You better talk to him in four eyes. Speak more gently, not with a hard heart" Grego said in support of Joe's opinion.
" But what if Gio has done as Om Joe and Dad said but he still does not want to listen to it at all?" tanya Gio asked for another option.
Joe and Grego shrug each other's shoulders. Because they think that's the best and right way. Because after all as a real man they should not hurt women especially to act rude. Remembering past events they had experienced. They learn from experience so that the same events do not happen as they used to.
Gio also understood, if this problem was only he himself had to solve it. He was no longer a little man who didn't know what to do. Father and Om Joe have taught him many things. As long as Mommy has not been with them for a dozen years, Gio has learned a lot about how to deal with life. Every difficulty and problem that we experience must be brave to face. Do not forget to draw strength and ask for enlightenment from the Almighty. As ordinary people, we have limitations.
Considering the words of Father and Omnya, Gio will try to do it. At least he's trying to behave well. Whatever the outcome, he will accept his condition.
The only problem now was how he could contact the woman, since Gio had no contact number at all. All this time the woman who always followed him wherever he went. And Gio never wanted to know anything about it. Especially to find out his contact number.
The only way is to wait. If that woman doesn't come bothering him anymore, isn't that better. Gio no longer needed to think about it.
The next day, Gio left for the office as usual. As a CEO he always comes on time or earlier than schedule to set an example to his employees. Though as a leader he can come at any time according to the wishes of his heart. But Gio is not like most other CEOs. Gio is Gio he's different and doesn't want to be equated with whoever it is.
" Hey!" sweep it with a floating smile. Gio did not answer him just snorted a little annoyed at being surprised by him.
" Hi Handsome, why is it so arrogant. If there is something to be answered. Sin knows it's so cute!" Speaking of sin, he himself forgot that he almost wanted to harm Gia out of blind jealousy. Isn't that more sinful?
Gio did not reply or reprimand him. But Zara did not give up. Every effort will be made. The elevator door opened, Gio stepped out. Zara doesn't want to miss. Like a child trailing behind her father, Zara follows wherever Gio goes. Seeing the behavior of Gio and Zara which was a little strange became the center of attention of the employees in the office. And as a result there were rumors among the employees that Zara was the girlfriend of their CEO.
And of course Gio did not know what to respond to it. Want to argue but will anyone care? So maybe just let it go. Gio took Zara to his room. Like Om Joe's proposal yesterday, Gio has to get it done right away. After entering the office room, Gio immediately closed the door of his room and activated the soundproof mode. With it once he can be free to speak in a high octave or low octave tone.
Without being told, Zara directly sat her body on the sofa. Zara acted as if she was the owner in the room. Gio doesn't care for now. Let the woman act as she pleases.
" It's not really important but I don't know what to call you so I have to ask what's your name?" Gio began his conversation by first asking what his name was. Because Gio had absolutely no idea what the woman's name was. Even if they met a few times.
Zara did not answer Gio's question directly. He asked Gio. "Do I have to answer your question?" Gio who was feeling annoyed replied with a subtle innuendo. " It doesn't really matter if you want to answer or not. There is no use for me either. But I'm just trying to appreciate you! "
Zara smiled instead. His heart was happy because Gio responded to him even though his words hurt a little. At least it's better than being taken for granted and ignored altogether.
" My name is Zara Geraldine. And I'm your future female candidate!" With a high sense of confidence Zara answered Gio's question. Hearing Zara's rant that said carelessly was only responded to with a headband by Gio. He could not understand why there was a woman like Zara in this world. Looks like the veins have broken off. Or perhaps the moment of creation when God distributed shamed veins to every human being Zara ditched absent so she had no veins of shame at all.
" You must be amazed by me. Don't be too impressed when you become more and more in love!" zara praised herself even more.
" Miss Zara, what exactly do you want. I don't want my life to be disturbed by your presence!" Gio tried to remain polite and calm.
" As a man you know what I want. You must not be that stupid so you don't know what I want from you.!" Zara's words immediately hit Gio's heart. Because it is true that Gio actually understands and knows what the woman is wanting. His actions, attitude and words clearly revealed what he wanted from a Gio.
" Yes, your words are true, but you should also know what my answer is. Because you're not that stupid either!" reply Gio.
" I know what your answer is. But I only believe in one thing if I keep trying and not give up, it could be that one day your heart changes and finally wants to accept my love.!" Zara said very convincingly. Even Gio himself did not know what to say anymore. This woman is different than the others.
