MARRIED

There's Conditions

Julia shut the door and locked it. His head throbbed suddenly dizzy at the thought of Ben who until now continues to look for a gap to disturb him.

He himself is also confused how can Ben now love him? Is that possible?

Even now Nadine's pregnant but Ben says he loves her? But sometimes when talking to Ben and Ben looks sad and unhappy, Julia's heart feels pity. He also wants to see Ben happy.

Even one time when Ben looked into her eyes warmly, Julia still felt a sigh deep down. But the feeling was that she pressed hard and she just wanted to remember Karel, her husband.

And soon Julia realized, if she was going to call Karel before Ben's arrival.

Julia grabs the phone lying on the bed, checking the message she so desperately hoped for from Karel.

Julia touched the screen of her phone, searched for her husband's name and now a waiting tone rang out in her ear. For a long time Julia waited until finally Karel's voice answered from the end there.

- "Hello darling."

- "Hello Karel. Why didn't you call me from noon. I'm worried."

- "Sorry baby, I'm busy here so I don't have time to call you."

- "Ih ... You're just making me worry."

- "Sorry dear Julia, don't pout anymore dong. Where are you now?"

- "Where else do you want to go?"

- "I thought you were staying at Mama's house."

"Not Karel, I'm at home to get closer to the office."

- "All right at home?"

yeah, well. Yeah, you be careful there."

- "Yes Julia dear, you too yes. I love you."

"I love you too."

Julia hung up. His heart was relieved that Karel was fine.

The next day Julia was in the office, Julia was very busy with a myriad of jobs that awaited her. He must complete the proposal of the event held by his department. Events that include bazaars and social activities.

The chief told Julia to leave to submit the proposal to a property company that was willing to become a donor.

After lunch, Julia went to the appointed company but previously she had made an appointment to meet with the leader to explain the proposed proposal.

Julia drove for about an hour and a half until she finally arrived. Julia was forced to leave alone because her friends were busy taking care of this event so that no one accompanied her.

With confidence, Julia went into an office that looked magnificent and luxurious. He asked an employee standing guard in the lobby how he could meet Ms. Lucia, the Chief Secretary.

Julia was also sent directly to meet Ms. Lucia. And it turns out that Ms. Lucia is still young, maybe around the age of 30 years.

"Hello Julia's mother," said Lucia kindly.

"Hello Ms. Lucia, just call me Julia." Julia reached out her hands together and smiled back at Lucia's hospitality.

"All right, let's just call it a name. Let me take you to Mr. Theo, the Chairman of this Company," asked Lucia.

Deg ... Julia's heart rippled to hear Theo's name. Was Theo really his ex? But immediately the removal of a no-no thought. Aren't there a lot of people in this world called Theo?!

"Please Julia," said Lucia who had opened the door of the leadership room.

With doubt Julia also entered the room. And it turns out what he thought was right. In the front seat sat Theo, his former lover.

Theo wore a friendly smile and from his eyes he could see if Julia would come to see him.

"Sir Theo, this is Julia who will submit a donor proposal," explained Lucia.

"Well, you can get out of Lucia first. I want to hear from Julia myself" Theo said, looking into Julia's eyes and not taking her eyes off at all.

Lucia felt a bit strange about the situation before her, but she immediately walked out of the Leader's room.

"Please sit down Julia," Theo said with a smile on her lips.

Theo took Julia to sit on the sofa there.

"Thank you Mr. Theo."

"Evs ... Since when do you call me sir?" Theo smiled happily to see Julia who still looked shocked to see her.

"What to call then?" ask Julia who is now relaxed. Although it can not be denied if he still set his heartbeat that was surprised to see Theo.

"Call Theo just like you used to."

"Oh yeah, what do you want Jul to drink?" ask Theo.

"Don't let me stay here just for a moment" Julia gently refused.

"Why hurry? We haven't met for a long time. Just a minute."

Theo got out of his seat and called Lucia, asking for a drink.

"What proposal are you going to make?" asked Theo then after returning to sit in front of Julia.

"It's a request proposal to be a donor to the birthday office where I work. The show includes bazaars and social activities." Julia submitted the proposal to Theo.

Theo looked serious as he read sheet by sheet what was written in the proposal. Julia just kept waiting.

Actually this is just a formality because previously this company has agreed to become a donor, but the amount of funds to be given depends on Julia to be able to convince the donors.

There was a knock at the door. Lucia came in carrying a tray containing 2 cups of mango juice and placed it on Julia's front desk. There is also a cake that is served Lusia that looks very good.

"Please drink," said Lucia kindly.

"Thank you Lucia" Julia replied.

"Thank you Lucia" Theo said.

"Come on Jul, drink it first. I still remember that you really liked mango juice" Theo said.

"Yes thanks Theo."

Julia drank her mango juice, soaking her throat which suddenly felt dry.

Theo still remembers his favorite. Indeed, when he was still dating, Theo was a very caring person.

Julia quickly banished away her old memories that suddenly pressed out in her head.

"Julia, how was your wedding?" theo asks suddenly which makes Julia choke.

"Generic ... " Julia's throat feels bad choking on mango juice.

"Haha why Jul?"

"You're surprising me, Theo. My marriage is fine. I got married about 3 months ago" Julia said.

"Thank God you're happy Jul. I know your first marriage to Ben was."

"Well that's the case, maybe Ben's not my match" Julia said casually.

"It is love that chooses Jul ... It's not us who can choose to love who."

"True Theo. How're you? You already have a child for sure" asked Julia smiling casually.

"My marriage is only about a year old and I don't have any children yet. Hopefully soon, because I'd love to have my own son" Theo said.

"I also really want to have children. We pray for each other, Theo."

"Yes Julia."

"I'm so happy to see you have such happiness in your marriage, Theo" Julia said.

"How do you know I'm happy?" Theo smiled amusedly at Julia.

Julia looked at Theo confusedly. Indeed he does not know, but now Theo looks to have everything. His efforts are successful and his marriage has only lasted one year, must still feel the honeymoon continues.

"Julia, you're still like you used to be ... Naive, kind and trusting people. But the difference is, now you look more beautiful and attractive," Theo said looking into Julia's eyes.

At first glance Julia saw a longing look in Theo's eyes, but in a hurry Julia lowered her head and took her mango juice, drinking it to nothing.

"Ehm ... Theo, what about the proposal? Your company wants to be a donor?" tanya Julia turned the conversation back on her original purpose of coming to this office.

"Julia, I can fund everything in this proposal. In other words, I want to be the only donor" said Theo, who now looks into Julia's eyes.

"Thank you very much Theo" said Julia.

"But there's a condition for Jul" Theo said with a smile on the corner of his lips.
