My husband, Doctor Adrian

My husband, Doctor Adrian
Freelance Auditors





Nathan and I arrived at a fancy restaurant in the SCBD area. I got out of the car before he opened the door for me. He took my hand without me knowing. We're heading for the reception.


"Good night, is it reserved?" A woman dressed in black greeted us.


"On behalf of Nathan."


"Well, over here, sir, Mom.." The woman led us into this golden-lit restaurant. He let us sit at a table for two people with a city view. Nathan pulled out my chair, was about to help me sit down. The receptionist also left us.


"Said to coffee?" I asked, without realizing that he was still behind me, after pulling my chair earlier. I, who had not sat down, gasped, our faces so close. I can inhale the musk scent of her perfume, even her aftershave scent.


He looked at me not blinking. I have to admit, he is very handsome. Dark brown eyes, dark hair neat but a bit messy on the front to touch his forehead.


I threw my face away as he looked at my lips. I re-set my breath. But he didn't budge, he was still in the same position, waiting for me to look back at his face.


"There's also coffee, if you want" he said half-jokingly.


I cleared my throat awkwardly, then sat down. Only then did he leave me and sit in his chair.


He called the waiter with just eye contact.


"One medium rare rib eye and whatever the best wine you have" he said. Okay, one thing I know about Nathan is that he really likes beef.


Nathan looked at me.


"Salmon steak. That's it, thank you." I told the waiter. The waiter took note and left.


"okay.. So then.. What's your company's problem?" my many.


"the problem.. Because you resigned." she said expressionlessly.


I can't help but laugh.


"I'm serious. Financial statements are fucked up, La." He rested his hair that fell to his forehead, his face turned serious.


"But you're staying with the auditor."


"What if you were?"


I almost choked on hearing it.


"Please, La. You can work whenever you are free. Saturday can. When you are free. Let's say your income is double, right."


I was thinking about it when the waiter brought our order.


"Can I think about it?" my many.


"Hm.. Okay. Can." Nathan took a sip of wine while smiling at me.


We started eating as he asked, "By the way.. About Richard.. Is he good with you?" tanyakanya.


I'm nodding. "OK, coke.. So you've known him for a long time?"


"Yes.. He's a friend of my Papa's. In spite of.. My father is much older than Richard's."


I nodded in understanding.


"How's life, La?" *how is your life


He looked at my two neutrals. His gaze was sharp, as if he wanted to find an answer from there. He seemed to be so attentive. I don't know.


"Well.." I said lightly.


"Are you sure?" He looked at me worriedly.


"Yes, Nathan. Thank you." - Thank you." Thank you for always being by my side, for always being my safety rope, who was always ready to help me when I was about to fall. But I don't intend to reveal it. I'm not sure being mellow in front of Nathan is a good thing. I just don't want to give him false hope.


"Continue. You have a boyfriend?" suddenly tanyanya.


I'm shaking. "I'm not ready yet.."


He nodded, taking his eyes off me. Maybe I was wrong, but I kind of caught the feeling of disappointment from her body language. After that we continued to eat dinner.

I put my car in the parking lot. Back to this company. A place that holds millions of memories, both happy and sad. I stared at the elevator where I had experienced bleeding and ended up having a miscarriage. I'm silent petrified. It's too hard to get your foot back in this office. I was about to turn around when someone touched my shoulder.


"Good morning,"


Nathan.


"Morning, Sir.."


"Shhh.. Stop calling me sir." His order.


"Oh. okay, sorry. You're going to the office?"


"Yes, I'm helping you. Gapapa, right?" tanyakanya.


"Hm.. I think the same finance division?"


"I want us to keep this a secret from my employees. I don't know yet what the problem is and who caused the problem." Nathan's face turned serious.


We took the elevator to the 20th floor. There, there is a large room in the corner there are piles of folders as high as one meter. I sighed, imagining how tired it must be to do this and not until when.


We started checking financial statements from the beginning of the month. I asked Nathan if there was anything I should confirm. He seems to be a very competent CEO. He knows what is going on in his company.


Time shows twelve o'clock in the afternoon past thirty minutes.


"Yuk lunch?" Take Nathan out of the blue while I'm focused on work.


"out?" my many.


He nodded. "Today is enough, huh. We'll continue next week?" nathan Moans. "Quiet down.. Only I can enter this room. Next week and so on all the files will still be in place." he continued as soon as he saw me pensive.


"Oh, okay. But. Why not take the afternoon?"


"The problem is, I'm really tired this week. Maybe next time is late afternoon." He stood up after closing the folder he was working on. I don't want to get up too.


We decided to have lunch near the office, to a mall right across the building. We decided to walk.


We were waiting for the pedestrian light to turn green as he held my hand, pulling my body to move to his left side. The vehicle came from his right side. It confused me. Does he think that I can't cross the road by myself? I don't know why I was touched too. No man has ever done that to me. Maybe because Adrian and I rarely walk together like this. When we walked together, he was often far ahead and I was behind. I took a deep breath, thinking about it again. Hope he is healthy and happy.


Nathan and I were walking down the mall to the second floor where some restaurants were when someone called my name.


"Lula!" The voice of the middle-aged woman was full of prestige and wisdom.


I looked for the origin of that voice.


"Mother?" my broom.


"How are you.." Her voice is soft and sweet in my ears.


"Good, Mom.." We kiss each other cheek.


"Mother how are you? Who's here?" my many.


But Mom didn't answer.. He was focused on seeing the man next to me.


SERIATE..
