MARRIED

S2 - Lying

Happy reading 😊

***

Time passes quickly. This is the fourth month Zahra worked as a personal assistant from her best friend's sister. A few more days were his graduation day, and Zahra decided to meet Rayyan to discuss his permission and the continuation of his work.

After gathering his courage from the morning, ahead of this lunch Zahra only dared to talk about it with Rayyan. He was looking for the right time, because Rayyan was doing a lot of work. He was afraid that if the timing was not right it would affect his permission or even the fate of his work.

"Sir... Do you want to have lunch here or out?" ask Zahra carefully.

"Pesenin only through applications in ordinary places, Zah. I want to eat grilled ribs with brown rice." Rayyan replied while remaining focused on her laptop.

"You're the same mom Meta wants to eat anything, pesen aja. Saldonya's still enough, right?" rayyan looked up at Zahra who was standing in front of her desk.

Zahra nodded. "Oiya sir, I want to talk about graduation permits. Can my sir get permission? Not a day after graduation."

"Aren't I able to?"

"Yes, but I need permission from you." Zahra said softly.

"Forgive me, I don't forbid." Rayyan refocused her eyes on her work.

"Trus... Can I still work here, sir?"

Zahra's question allowed Rayyan to stop her fingers pressing on the laptop keyboard, then lean her back on the back of the chair and stare at Zahra.

"You still want to work here?" rayyan asked as she crossed her arms and was answered with an excited nod by Zahra.

"Will you have your current position?"

"You, Sir. But.. If you want to move me to other parts also no problem."

"What reason can convince me that your position is not me to slide."

"Yes, as long as I work together, is there no problem, right? All my schedules and work can also be handled even though there is no Father. It... Still less, sir?"

Rayyan sighed, then sniffed both of her shoulders. "Eitherway. I'm not sure it could be my consideration or not."

Zahra's facial expression instantly turned to disappointment. "Whatever Mr. Deh. I went out first sir to ask Ms. Meta to order what to eat." Rayyan only answered him with deheman, and it made Zahra even more sad.

"The day after graduation came with me to Bandung, Zah. There's a meeting with an important client there. If we manage to establish cooperation with him, your position is safe."

"Keep failing, sir?"

"Yes you have to try dong to succeed. That's your name you're not confident first."

Zahra sighed, then pulled the chair next to her and sat there.

"It's not the PD, sir. But.. because you said it was an important client, and it seems difficult to be taught cooperation, so I feel that it is difficult for me, sir." unknowingly, I feel, Zahra ruffled her hair in front of Rayyan. It certainly attracted the attention of Rayyan who then held a smile to pay attention to Zahra's behavior.

"Udahlah, now pesenin lunch first. You can do that later." Rayyan grabbed her laptop.

Drowning, Zahra stepped out of Rayyan's room to order lunch at her command.

Rayyan and Zahra had just finished their work. The clock still shows at 6:30 pm, not too late for them to go home from work. Shortly after finishing tidying up the file, the door of Rayyan's room opened and displayed Nadine's figure smiling widely there.

"You really haven't come home" he said so.capture the figure of Rayyan is still in his work desk.

Nadine stepped towards Rayyan's table, as if not caring for Zahra who was also at one table with Rayyan.

"I happen to be passing by here, I'm calling you but there's no answer. So I accidentally stopped by and asked the receptionist that you were still in the office." continued Nadine when standing next to Rayyan.

"Yes, there's a lot of work. And. hape I am silent." Rayyan replied while shifting her standing position to be at a distance with Nadine.

Rayyan glared at Zahra as Nadine finished speaking. Zahra was so cute, the girl was still pretending to be busy with the arrangement of the map that did not stop her checking earlier.

"Eee.. sorry, Nadine. I have an appointment with a client with Zahra." Rayyan refused firmly while taking her cloaked suit.

Zahra was surprised by Rayyan's reply. He slightly raised his face and glanced towards that calm-looking Rayyan.

"Oh, really? Why don't you meet the client during the day like you normally would."

"Like your father invited me and Zahra to dinner, your father even invited us to the weekend. The day we were supposed to rest, but we didn't refuse, did we? Especially if it's not for cooperation." Rayyan still replied calmly, putting her luggage in her briefcase.

"We're leaving in a few minutes, Zah. You get ready first." continued Rayyan by looking at Zahra's confused face.

"Good, Sir. Excuse me first." Zahra lowered her head, then walked out of the room while carrying a pile of documents.

"Ahhh, so I got kicked out?"

Nadine was a little upset by Rayyan's attitude. Though yesterday, Rayyan received his arrival well. Even willing to chat with him despite showing his lazy attitude throughout their conversation.

"I'm not angry, Nadine. But I have an appointment. Sorry yeah. You... wanna come down with me?"

"No. I'm going down now, I'm going home first huh." Although upset, Nadine still tried to smile at Rayyan before finally leaving Rayyan's room.

After Nadine's departure, there were a lot of things that Zahra wanted to ask Rayyan. But he was resistant, because he did not want to be considered meddling in the personal affairs of his boss. Since descending to the parking lot together and now a few minutes away, Zahra and Rayyan still chose silence.

"You want to eat first, Zah? I think it's still jammed this bad until the next crossroad." Rayyan tries to start her conversation with Zahra.

"Mother is hungry? If you want to eat, nothing. I'll accompany."

"Keep you don't eat?"

"I can eat at home, sir."

"Why not eat?" rayyan asked as she looked towards Zahra.

"During my cooperation, I have often been paid to eat with you. I'm not good, sir."

"I was really having a problem? Just eating doang, Zah. You also helped me with all the work, right? Think of it as a form of thank you to me. So you can save your meal money for other purposes."

Zahra was silent, until she finally ventured to ask.

"So..why did you lie?"

"liying?" Rayyan asked and answered a nod by Zahra.

"Ohh, about Nadine?" rayyan asked again and Zahra nodded her head again.

"I just don't want to act."

"That's it?" now it was Zahra's turn to ask and Rayyan nodded her head.

"Isn't that what made you grumble all day yesterday? I'm just avoiding that, Zah."

Zahra was stunned to hear Rayyan's words. I don't know what he really feels. But hearing Rayyan who lied to her ex-boyfriend to keep her from nagging like yesterday, it made her feel really happy.

"We eat here first, then I'll take you home" said Rayyan, turning his car into a restaurant.
