Marrying my Nanny

Chapter 13

*Johan Company *

"Ara, crazy you yes, from yesterday there was no ngabarin me, you have an explanatory debt to me!" Gisel immediately approached Ara and flocked her with various questions as soon as Ara entered the company lobby.

"Shut, don't be so loud, you want me to be the talk of what else?" Ara pulled Gisel into her room which was separated from the other employees' room, Ara's desk was in front of their President Johan's room, with glass as a separator so that Ara and Johan can observe each other even in rush hour. This simple thing is one of the romantic nature of Johan. The man was always full of gentleness and maturity, making Ara admire him even more day by day.

"Sorry, but you still have to be clear, who was the one who called me yesterday, he said that he was your husband's man, since when did you get married?" Gisel whispered a little so that his words could not be heard by others.

"It's a long story, I just wish this was all a dream,...." Then Ara told him briefly about her marriage to Hansel, and asked her best friend to keep this a secret first.

Gisel covered his mouth with both hands, no longer able to cover up any distrust in him,

"Good for what? Hansel Anderson Nathanael? You're not dreaming, are you ?Did you have a fever until you hit ?" Gisel put his hand on Ara's forehead, so in disbelief with what her best friend was going through.

"Aishhh, I'm serious," Ara brushed off Gisel's hand.

"Well, that's incredible. So what now, Johan?"

Before Ara answered the question from her best friend, Johan's sturdy body had appeared behind Gisel, making the two women who were telling the story was drunk.

"Ara, my room!" john's word is short.

Ara nodded her head in understanding, while Gisel immediately used a thousand-step stance to avoid their problems.

Soon Ara catches up with Johan to her room and brings her resignation file, she has decided to leave the company that has been holding her for five years.

Htok ..tok.. Ara knocked on the door politely.

"Lake in!" Johan's masculine voice sounded from within.

"Can I help you sir?" said Ara as soon as he was in front of Johan who was sitting in his seat of greatness.

"Sit down !" johan ordered, "We're just the two of you, you don't have to be so formal with me, talk like you used to" Johan said softly.

Ara also dropped her body weight on the chair in front of Johan's desk, "But we are currently in the office and it is still working hours sir. It would be unethical if I spoke in this way, recalling our current relationship as boss and secretary. Sorry!"

Johan let out a long sigh, not liking the answer Ara gave him, "Ara? Regarding yesterday, I represent my mother apologizing to you" Johan said to the points.

"It's okay sir, a little more I'm guilty too," a smile of helplessness rose on Ara's ruum lips.

"And as for what my mother said that fired you yesterday, I want to clarify it" he continued.

"Actually that's also the reason I came to the office today sir, I want to hand over my resignation letter," Ara thrust out a few pieces of paper she had prepared.

"Ara, don't be like this. I know, we're not what we used to be, but I can't just ignore you either. I'm sorry, I should have listened to your explanation back then, and I shouldn't have just left you, sorry." Johan lowered his gaze, his voice filled with regret.

Ara's tears began to drip, she was still as weak as before Johan. Ara wanted to forget her, so that the man she loved could be happy with another woman.

Mas Johan deserves a better woman than me who is no longer holy, I must forget and let her go.

"Mass? I hate myself, I never meant to betray you, I swear. I don't know how things got messed up like this, I really don't understand."

Ara's cry was unstoppable anymore, she spilled out all the feelings that had haunted her all this time. His common sense asserts that everything he does is not right, but his body and heart betray him, Ara's body and heart longs for Johan.

Johan knelt down before Ara, wiped away Ara's tears with gentleness, clasped Ara's hand firmly, "Shhh, don't cry anymore, I should apologize, "Johan kept saying softly , calming Ara who was still as unwilling.

After feeling a little calm, Johan sat back down in his chair, "It's better?"

Ara just nodded small.

"Well, now is not the right time to talk about our personal affairs. Like you said, we're still in the office. Let's discuss this after working hours next time . Regarding your resignation letter, I cannot accept it" Johan said trying to control his raging emotions. He was very sorry for being too carried away by the emotions at that time, he just thought that Ara had betrayed and used herself to be on Hansel's side. And now that his head could think clearly he realized his mistake, by not trusting Ara, creating an opportunity for another man to take his position more easily.

"But, actually without this resignation letter I have the right to leave this company, given that my employment contract ended last month, and I did not want to extend it. So..." Ara hung up her sentence.

"Ara, if the reason you left is my mother's words, didn't I apologize to you sincerely, why do you insist so much on quitting this job. Don't you remember how you fought to get to this point?" Johan scratches out old memories, trying to change Ara's stance.

Johan asks if Ara remembers him? Just Ara's ghost remembered everything, Ara remembered every drop of tears and sweat shed so that she could be worthy in this position, Ara still remembers how she always accompanied Johan to develop this company from zero to develop so far, Ara still remembers every moment they went through together. Year after year that brought their relationship closer together, Ara was always convinced that this man before her would be her husband, the father of her children. Ara had absolutely no expectations even in a dream if their relationship would end like this. Ara remembered everything.

"I'm sorry, but my husband doesn't allow me to work," in the end Ara can only use Hansel's name as a shield.

Johan let out a heavy sigh, he rubbed his face in frustration, now he doesn't have any cards to keep Ara from working on his side, "Alright, give me three months and train a secretary for me, until he can do everything exactly like you, then I'll let you get away from this company."

"Three months? it's too long, Johan, I think I can train my replacement for two weeks at the most, that's enough" said Ara.

"Okey, one month only, one month. After that you're free to go."

"Don't I tell you if my contract expired last month" ArA repeated.

"I know, but please, just one month, yeah?" force Johan.

Ara let out a long sigh, she could already imagine Hansel's anger dancing in her head.

"Ok, one month." answered Ara later.
