My Boss, My Son's Father

Decisions

At Daniel's apartment, he goes to the refrigerator and gets a bottle of water and drinks it. He sat down and put his feet on the couch and lay down. His left hand was above his forehead.

He hurt the woman he loved so much. Yeah, ever since Rara disappeared the day after graduation, Daniel's been looking for her.

The house is empty. Rara's classmates whom she knew also no one knew where she had gone. Until the day they will take the High School Diploma, Daniel asked about Rara to his homeroom teacher. Because he was confused not to see Rara coming to school.

From Rara's homeroom teacher, Daniel learns that Rara has earned her S1 scholarship abroad. She left the day after graduation. Daniel has felt very guilty since. He had not had time to apologize to Rara, because it had hurt Rara too deeply, even he had forcibly taken Rara's virginity in a half-drunk state. He does not know since when he fell in love with Rara, but he only realized it after Rara's departure.

"Please excuse me Ra." Ogre Daniel.

"For Mother." Ria greets her mother and gives a good morning kiss on her cheek. "Mother is sick?" Ria put her tiny palm on her mother's forehead.

The mother just smiled and shook her head. "Mother is not sick. Mother is just tired. Mother's beautiful daughter is hungry, isn't she?" Rara said softly to her daughter.

Even though Rara hated the father of her children so much, but to her Rio and Ria were her little angels. Which always brings happiness to his life. He was very protective of both of his hearts.

"Abang is awake?" Ask Rara to Ria.

"The de ga tau. Let my brother sleep. Don't give me breakfast." Said Ria by pursing her lips.

"Why is that the same brother? That brother is ade's brother. Brother who will take care if anyone dares to disturb you ade." Rara softly said.

"But nyebelin bun. I love jahilin ade." Ria puffed both of her cheeks in annoyance.

"That's the sign of dear brother same ade. Let's go to the kitchen now. Mother ready breakfast." Rara took her daughter downstairs.

Today Rara decided to resign from Daniel's office. He will submit his resignation letter later this afternoon.

It's better to work somewhere else than to have to work for Daniel's company, Rara thought.

After finishing breakfast and taking care of her two children, Rara prepares to leave for Daniel's company. Previously he had left Rio and Ria to Marwah.

Arriving at the lower lobby Rara immediately entered the elevator to Daniel's room.

Ting!

He got out of the elevator with mixed feelings. But anyway he should be ready to meet again with Daniel after what happened yesterday.

When she was right in front of Daniel's door, Rara let out a deep breath. Then knock on the door and slowly turn the door knob and go inside.

Daniel turned his head towards the door then focused back on his work while smiling to himself.

"I don't think you're coming to work." Daniel opened the conversation without raising his face.

Rara stepped closer to Daniel's desk and placed a white envelope on the table, with a flat expression.

Daniel frowned then looked at Rara for a bit. "What's this?" Daniel asked, pointing at the thing with his chin.

"Rara wait!" Daniel then put Rara's contract on his desk. "I want you to read it first." Continue Daniel.

"If you understand the contents of the contract then the decision is in your hands." Daniel continued, folding his hands to his chest, looking at the woman he loved. It should be slow - slow to melt the heart of this woman.

Rara picked it up and read it, her eyes perfectly rounded and looking at Daniel as if to eat him alive. Daniel who saw Rara's reaction only smiled faintly.

"What other game is this Daniel? Are you still not satisfied to hurt me??" Rara throws the contract right in Daniel's face with emotion. As Daniel growled, he stood up.

"Rome!!" Daniel raised his voice, making Rara surprised.

"What game do you mean? There's no game here. It should be before you agree to work here that you already know about your employment contract. And it is very clearly written that if you break the contract before the time, you must be ready to pay the fine. And that goes for all the employees here. And if you don't want to pay it then the company will sue you legally." Daniel explained at length very firmly and then loosened his tie.

"I beg Ra, think again. I promise I won't bother you. We will work professionally. My work was quite interrupted as there was no personal secretary to help me these few days. So can I beg you Ra to help me?" Daniel said very gently hoping Rara would undo her intention to resign from her company. Because this way alone is an opportunity for Daniel to correct all his mistakes on Rara.

Rara was just silent, she was unable to move anymore. Only his eyes were staring at Daniel. He thought it was not a matter of fines that he had to pay, but what he thought was the fate of his children if he had to be involved in legal matters. Without him noticing his tears falling on his smooth cheeks.

Daniel slowly approached Rara, his heart ached to see tears wash over her face. He mustered the courage to wipe away those tears. Rara immediately raised her face to look at Daniel. Her tears kept flowing. There was a warm feeling in his heart when Daniel's hand touched his face. Gently rubbed his tears.

"Ra, I beg you to forgive me." said Daniel softly and looked back at Rara.

"I know I've been a jerk in your eyes. My actions are unforgivable. I really regret it Ra." Daniel turned his gaze away from Rara, his voice sounding rather hoarse. There were tears welling up in her eyes and ready to fall.

He turned his face so that Rara would not see him when the tears fell.

But it was too late, Rara saw it. Suddenly, Rara's body sits limp on the floor.

Daniel turned his head and took Rara into his arms. Rara revolted against Daniel's chest, but Daniel tightened it. Rara was unable to move anymore, she just cried in the chest of Daniel's field. Daniel's shirt is wet from Rara's tears. But Daniel doesn't care. He just wanted to calm Rara in his arms.

"You're bad Daniel..." Rara said in between her sobs.

"I'm sorry Ra, I beg you." Daniel stroked Rara's hair gently.

Daniel let go of his embrace slowly, then led Rara to stand up and sit on the sofa. Daniel takes a glass of water and gives it to Rara.

"Drink first Ra." Daniel also gives Rara a tissue

After drinking. Rara looks calmer. He looked back at Daniel, then cut off their eye contact.

"Give me your work schedule. Then where's my desk? I can start today." Rara rubbed her face that was still wet with the tissue Daniel had given her earlier.

Then he made his appearance and stood up. If not for thinking about his two children, Rara really did not want to accept this job. Because for her, Rio and Ria are the top priority in her life.

If he still insisted on resigning and getting lawsuits, who would look after them. While Rara herself is an orphan, there are no relatives anymore. Rara thinks this is the right decision.

His hand turned toward Daniel asking for something "Schedule your work." Rara flat.

Daniel then regained his senses and immediately stood up and stepped towards his table. "Achelm!!" Daniel cleared his throat to overcome the awkward atmosphere he felt. Then he called Nita to come to her room.

The door opened, and Nita entered the room. Daniel asks Nita to give his work schedule to Rara, and asks Nita to take Rara to her desk, which is still one room with Daniel.

Daniel actually wants to ask Rara to work from tomorrow only. But when he saw Rara was already serious in front of his laptop, he let her. At the very least, from today will not argue anymore with Rara. Hope so.
