Love is Noiseless

Chapter 33

‘La, you're home from work, right? I'm again in the parking lot of your office, quickly get off ya,’ Bayu

Layla's eyes were rounded when she saw the message appear on her phone.

‘What are you doing here, Mas?’ ask Layla

‘We take a short walk, yuk to the beach again.’

Layla. He hurried to clean up all the stuff on his desk. Making Emma beside him pay attention with a confused face.

“Why are you, La? Why is it such a hurry?” ask Emma.

“There is a sudden need, Ma. I went down first yes,” Layla rushed off to the elevator. Bayu won't leave unless he meets first. Layla does not want Bayu to meet Richard let alone Dinan. There was fear in his heart if what he did was known to Dinan.

Layla immediately ran towards the parking lot after exiting the elevator on the first floor. The girl was sweating profusely, her heart was beating fast. Once in the parking lot, he saw all the cars that were there. Find where Bayu's car is. Layla saw the man waving to her.

“Jeez, Mas Bayu,” Og Layla. The girl walked quickly to Bayu. He got into Bayu's car for fear that someone would see him with the man.

“So where are we going this afternoon?” ask Bayu with enthusiasm while turning on the car.

"Where, anyway Mas why come suddenly gini anyway?” ask Layla with annoyance.

“You are invited to always refuse, so I come like this deh,”

“I'm busy, Mas. Work in the office again a lot,” kilah Layla.

“I also told you, the work is only appropriate, limited to your responsibilities. If it's time to go home, yes go home,” Bayu.

Layla took a deep breath, she looked at Bayu with a troubled heart.

“Mas, if I make a fatal mistake, will you forgive me and still accept me?” ask Layla a little worried.

“Fatal error? what kind of error?”

“Checking for example,” Layla said carefully.

“Everyone can make mistakes, including me, as well as you, La. If you realize your mistake and promise not to repeat it, I will forgive you. My love is not worth anything, La,” said Bayu who made Layla look at him guiltily. Being in Layla's position is very difficult. She still loves the man next to her.

Dinan noticed the state of his slightly dirty apartment. It may not be visible to the naked eye, but Dinan can see clearly what the condition of his apartment that has not been cleaned like. The man walked towards the kitchen, still tidy and there was no rush whatsoever. Dinan looked at the watch in his hand. It's past six o'clock, Layla still hasn't returned.

“Where is he?” asked Dinan in annoyance.

While the waiting seemed anxious. Layla is still stuck in traffic. Layla was upset, she had asked Bayu to take her to the contract, but now it was not possible. If he goes to a contract, he'll get to the apartment last night. Moreover, the congestion is quite severe because there is an accident at the end of the road.

“Mas, can take me to another place,” said Layla who resigned to the situation.

“Where?” ask Bayu.

Bayu's car quickly broke the road to Dinan's apartment building. Layla is not an expert at lying let alone hiding something. Now he has to go through this. I don't know what it will be like, he just hopes that Dinan doesn't know anything about himself and Bayu. Bayu's car arrived at Dinan's apartment building more than an hour later. The clock is almost eight o'clock.

“Mas, I can't tell you now. Tomorrow I'll explain.” Layla pulls the car knob. Bayu held his hand.

“Just explain now, La.”

“Mas, please, tomorrow I explain, now I really have to go,” Layla said begging.

“I should know now, La. Whose place are you going? why not go back to your contract?” tanya Bayu urged.

“Mas, please, do not complicate my situation, I beg you,” Layla said.

Bayu relented, he released Layla's hand. The girl got out of the car and ran to the elevator. Leaving Bayu who saw his departure suspiciously. Layla went to whose place? why not go back to the contract? The man hit the steering wheel in annoyance. Why won't Layla explain it?

Layla broke out in a cold sweat when she pressed the password of Dinan's apartment. He entered with fear in his heart. The girl immediately headed for the kitchen, the situation was still the same as when she came home. He checked the whole room in the apartment. Dinan was not there at all.

“Is he not home yet?” ask Layla. The state of the apartment was still the same as when he left. Dinan did not come home yet, Layla could breathe a sigh of relief. “It looks like he is busy taking care of the transfer of children in the orphanage,” Layla guessed. The girl immediately headed for the kitchen, she cooked Dinan dinner as the man came home.

Layla just prepared a simple menu of the best. Layla always made sure that the cuisine was delicious so that Dinan could eat as well as usual. Moreover, Dinan came home very late, the man would definitely be very hungry when he arrived at the apartment.

Time passed, and the dishes were served at the dinner table. Layla then went up to the room to clean herself up. Fortunately, he was still on his side. He was really grateful because it just so happened that night that Dinan also came home that night.

As he got down to check if Dinan had gone home, he still found the man was not yet in their apartment. Layla then sat in the living room, checking her phone while waiting for Dinan to return.

There were some missed calls from Bayu.

‘Tomorrow you must explain, La. I don't calm down thinking about you.' Bayu.

Layla exhales harshly reading a message from Bayu. Does he have to admit everything to Bayu? Thinking about it really frustrated Layla. Apartment door open. Layla quickly hid her phone and headed to the front door. Dinan had just walked in with the same work clothes as he had this morning. Layla felt her assumption that Dinan was late to come home was right.

“Why are you late to go home?” ask Layla by putting on her face as usual.

“It should be that question for you, not for me,” Dinan said with annoyance, the man then walked towards the second floor.

“Do you not eat dinner first?” layla asked, she was still confused by what Dinan had said just now.

“I just finished eating out, you came home too late,” replied Dinan. The man walked towards his chair. He rested there enjoying the night. Layla was standing behind the chair. Watching Dinan with a troubled face.

Now he realizes that Dinan is coming home as usual. Since he was not in the apartment, the man went out to look for food.

“Sorry, sir, I had a need with other friends,” said Layla lying.

Dinan did not respond, the man closed his eyes, enjoying the noise from outside the glass wall. While Layla chose to go down with a feeling of uncertainty. This was the first time Dinan had not eaten what he had cooked. Even if the man is not angry because he came home late. Or even angry that he did not cook on time, but hearing Dinan eat outside and make his cooking untouched at the dinner table really makes his heart ache.

This time Layla could only look at the dishes she cooked. The cuisine that he wished to eat Dinan was as voraciously as ever. But now it will not be touched by Dinan. Even Layla herself had no appetite for food.

All guilt comes instantly. Dinan had been very kind to him, there was not a single punishment he received from every rule he violated. Even her agreed-upon status from the beginning as a maid was simply not her feel. He just did his job as a wife and ate at the same table as Dinan. But all the good of Dinan he always returned with mistakes for the mistakes he continued to do.

“I should how? why should I be in this position?” Layla asked softly.
