Gulp down the water that Dina brought from the pantry. After successfully adjusting the breath, now Kian looks more calm.
"Thank you." Kian looked at Rendy and Dina alternately.
"It goes without thinking, his behavior has not changed in the past. Always arrogant and acting arbitrarily," said Rendy again calming. Which followed a nod by Dina.
"He's a proud man" Dina said. "But why did it go that way, Kian? It's not like we've been briefed that Tian Arkan is coming. So we are asked to be careful, not to make mistakes. Did you forget?" dina asked back to remind. And it doesn't seem like Kian forgot, it's just that Rendy's meeting with her lover had made her unfocused. Not listening to the briefing this morning. His mind floated somewhere. He again lowered his head regretting his carelessness.
Actually, Kian has no intention of continuing his work, but the permission to go home will only add to the problem again. He had to hold on for a few more hours. After being sure to feel better, Rendy and Dina brought Kian back to his room. As they entered, various gazes were fixed on Kian. Many looked at him concernedly, trying to encourage him. But there were also those who looked down at him, lamenting his stupidity. It's like you'll never experience what's natural.
He took a deep breath, trying to stand up. Assume that this incident never happened. He tried to focus on his work again. Even during the break he was more silent, reluctant to talk about it. Only Rendy and Dina looked at each other to see Kian's silence.

The day before Arkan's arrival.
"Master, tomorrow is your scheduled return to the homeland. Is Young Master ready?" ask Mr. Dan to Arkan. The young man who was spoken to was seen taking a deep breath.
"Prepare everything, sir," he replied without taking his eyes off.
Mr. Dan nodded slowly. "Good Young Master." After that he came out of the apartment leaving Arkan who was still standing enjoying the view of the city from the balcony of his apartment.
After 2 years he left his homeland to take care of his business abroad, he finally decided to return. Continuing the duties and responsibilities of taking care of the Father's business.
Upon arrival at home, Arkan decided not to go straight home. He asked Mr. Dan to drive him to the company. And the middle-aged man only agreed without asking much. He sent a message to the Chief in charge of each section to hold a briefing on the arrival of Mr. Arkan. Let no one make the slightest mistake, because the consequences will be difficult to tolerate. That's how the message is.
After arriving at the office yard, Mr. Dan's phone suddenly rang. The call from Mr. Wijaya apparently. Arkan's Dad. Mr. Dan picked it up and spoke briefly with Mr. Wijaya. The man just wanted to make sure whether his son came home safely or not. After the conversation was over, Mr. Dan put his phone back in his pocket. Then he went back to the car where Arkan was. But the young master had already disappeared from his place. Mr. Dan rushed to catch her in the elevator, and when the elevator door opened he found Arkan standing in front of a girl, with files strewn across the floor.

The clock has shown at five in the afternoon, which means the employees are ready to go home. Finished tidying up the files on his desk, Kian rushed down. After earlier he said goodbye to Dina who was still busy with some of her work. It's been more
do not want to linger in the office, it feels like he wants to go home immediately and lay down on the mattress.
Due to his rapid pace, Kian did not realize Rendy was running after him. The man had to leave his motorcycle to his friend to take home. Then ran after the bus that Kian was riding, thank God the bus immediately stopped. While on the bus Rendy tried to regulate his breath that was wheezing. His eyes were looking for Kian's whereabouts. Luckily the bus was not full of passengers, so the girl could sit safely next to the window. Look at the streets with a blank look. Slowly Rendy approached and sat down next to her. He was not aware of the man's existence. For a moment Rendy just quietly let the girl calm her mind, while occasionally glancing at Kian who was still drifting in her daydream.
"Ekhem." Rendy cleared her throat to resuscitate Kian. And it seems to work. The girl looked at him with a frown. Confused at once astonished. Since when was this man next to her.
"Sister Rendy?" said ensure.
" I was calling you at the office, but you didn't turn your head" he replied with a smile.
"Sorry Brother Rendy I didn't hear." Still with her slender face.
"It's okay." Back silence.
This afternoon the streets were completely jammed. The vehicle cannot move. Amidst the traffic jam, the riders were heard cursing at each other. Each of them impatiently wanted to break through the bottleneck immediately. Even the bus that Kian was riding on did not move in the slightest. Adding to the fatigue on his shoulders. He felt his head start to get heavy. His drowsiness was also unbearable, until he unconsciously fell asleep on the bus. Seeing the girl fall asleep, Rendy just shook her head.
"How did he fall asleep on the bus?" Rendy exhaled. Staring at Kian with a sad look
Feelings of worry and sympathy mixed into one. Rendy had no idea since when she cared about this girl. But for now he just wants to protect her. Rendy grabbed Kian's head and leaned on his shoulder. While waiting for the streets to return to normal, let this girl sleep in her sleep.
"Kien, Kiandra.. The bus is almost there." Rendy patted Kian softly on the shoulder. He tried to wake the girl from her sleep.
"Mmh." The girl squirms while opening her eyes. Trying to regain his consciousness. After being fully conscious, he was shocked by what he was doing.
How can I fall asleep on his shoulder.
"Sorry Rendy, I accidentally fell asleep" he said. Again, he lamented his carelessness. Being too tired, he involuntarily fell asleep on Rendy's shoulder.
After that he tapped the iron with a coin, making the driver stop the bus. While standing, he returned to his farewells.
"I went down first, Brother Rendy. Once again thank you for lending me a shoulder" he said shyly.
"Yes, be careful on the road, Kian!" he answered while smiling.
Kian waved at Rendy who was still staring at him from a distance. After the bus completely disappeared, he continued walking towards his aunt's house. It had been 2 years since he had been living with his aunt in the capital. She has not been allowed to stay by her parents. For fear that something unwanted will happen to Kian. He just breathed deeply. Today she missed both her parents.
