Not Just a Shadow

Chapter 42

At the end of the street, Febrian who roomed with Ryan was packing their things to get back to C.

“Feb, have you confirmed to pack immediately right? If we're gonna be back this morning, too?"

"Yes, sir. Oya, your division tomorrow handle what?”

“There are still two projects Sir, and there is an old project that you used to hold first, just wait for approval, besides it has been settled.”

“Em, nice dong!” Ryan only hears a Febrian response.

“Do you know bro, Ferdian shareholders. Where were you yesterday when there was such an important meeting?” inner Febrian.

“I don't think you know, if you know Ferdian is an important person in our Company there's no way you're acting like this, you're overflowing your jealousy like a high school boy.”

“Everyone feels your anger, you used to be nothing like this. You are calm and wise, are you already unable to hold it? Will I be like this one day too? Lost control! Your charms are scary Ra!” febrian's heart was full of words, but his face was still calmly staring at Ryan who was packing his things.

“Congratulations Mr. Ryan, tomorrow you will occupy a new room.” Febrian ended the silence.

“Thank you, I hope we can work together Feb, in the future we will often meet, not only meet but also have to be compact in work."

“Iya Sir,”

“Kalmu there-there's only Yan, how many days away on Hira by moving Division. Soon you come back again to be closer to Hira without anyone realizing it in a higher position.” Inner Febrian.

“Oya, Feb. Hira's college is still safe, right?”

“Last I questioned it yes the answer is still ok, sir.”

“His schedule with work does not collide right?”

“No, overtime hours also adjust to the lecture schedule kok.” Febrian replied a little upset, like a child being taught how to hold a spoon when it starts to become independent.

“No question, I'll do it for his good. I knew if you liked him first, before I knew he was the lover of someone I knew who admired him. I'll admire him in silence.” Inner Febrian.

“Thank you,” said Ryan humbly, go leave the room.

“There is not the slightest arrogance implied by Yan, but why stupidity because of your jealousy you show so clearly in front of all employees. With your unreasonable attitude, everyone will still ask why. When everyone knows the reason, you will make Hira a soft subject for people.” Inner Febrian shook her head which ducked tidying up her things.

“Ryc, you didn't come to your sister's room, did you?” tanya Tari when queuing at the door of the bus, other employees boarded the bus in a hurry, like getting sudden news. Dari and Ryco and their partners prefer to relax a little and queue at the back.

“Not Ri, I read the message you sent.”

“You think they stayed up why Ri?” ryco whispered right in Tari's ear making Fernad glare at her eyes, it could be Ryco whispered not spaced in front of their partner.

“I don't know, we'll be in tomorrow. That's if Hira doesn't permit it. But I don't think that's what you had in mind!” Dance pushed Ryco's forehead with her index finger.

“But it doesn't have to be like this too Ri times, shy to see people.” Ryco's face pouted.

“Finally, you too. In front of our partner you're acting like that! And about that, your mind must be jorokkan?” said Tari confidently what Ryco thought.

“Better in front than in back? Is it Fernad?”

“Better, in front or behind keep each other's feelings!” the word Fernad makes Ryco only show his hand that hints at ‘ok’ without saying anything. Erna gave her thumbs up at Fernad a sign of approval for what Fernad said.

“Mas, what time is it? Looks like the sun has risen? Why not wake me up anyway?”

“Still at 8. Just relax, continue sleeping.” After the dawn prayer Mas Ferdian told me to go back to sleep.

“My stomach is hungry, I'll take a shower first. Who drives Mas, why do I sleep? Why didn't I sleep?”

“Mas is asleep, Mas built earlier because there is a phone from Dika.”

“Sunday morning gini why phone? You already know if you're with me, why have a phone?” my inner.

“Is there any urgent important business?” ask me to escape my curiosity.

“Not so, he's just a prank. Biasalah.. soul of his evil appeared.” I smiled with relief because there was nothing urgent that made Mas Ferdian leave me.

“Thank God, my dear, you don't suspect anything. Sorry I've been dishonest to you.” Inner Ferdian.

Flashbacks

“Hallo Dik, what's up?”

“There is news about your in-laws here being sick, earlier your wife took him to the hospital.”

“Stop bro, do not carelessly yes if talking. If Hira hears how I'm going to explain to her?”

“Sorry sorry, looks like he needs mental support! You are usually the one who always stands by him. How's this?”

“ What does it mean how? As if he was my only responsibility!”

“Yes, there is nothing in writing or blood ties that hold you accountable. But he's used to you. And only with you she always leaned.”

“Iya I understand, but this is an emergency Fer,”

“In any circumstance, do not you shake me Dik. I don't want Hira to feel betrayed. Let the problems that are there yes there, do not get mixed up and you blow the wind to blow up here.”

“So he called me, asked you and didn't dare to call you. Looks like he knows where you are again. Did you tell him?”

“I didn't tell him at all, just face to face with him hasn't since I went here before. Then what did you tell him?” Ferdian.

“I was just silent, she seemed to know if I couldn't answer her question.” He answered with an empty mind.

“When will you be Back?”

“I can't estimate what time it will be there. But Hira was still sleeping, I told her to go back to sleep, it didn't feel like we stayed up last night. All his friends have been scheduled to go home this morning, it turns out that the photo is Ryan, the head of his former Division.”

“One time your fate yes Fer, I am here struggling with your work you are there.ehm..ehm..”.

“Mouth!”

“True?”

“Not in quotes times ehm ehmnya, is there anything important anymore? I'll wait for Hira to wake up first, I still want to be with her.”

“Then, how is the solution with Mbak Rinna Boss. I'll meet you when I get there. I'm sure he won't dare to question me again unless something really urges him.”

“But I'm sure he's been confused once at the moment, actually yesterday Mr. Agum was on leave, and still looks fine. But do not know suddenly was dawn even like that reportedly. I'll see her later, maybe Sister Rinna needs help.”

“Okey then, thank you for your understanding Dik. Titip him.”

“Merinding me would be, hearing those words of yours!”

“Why?”

“As if you told me to look after your wife who is here because you can't go home, there are still tasks outside the city.”

“This danger is you Bro! If one of here and there knows, the business is not simple when you open your mouth.” Ferdian saw the look on Hira's face that was not calm in his sleep, a sign of being tired in his dreams, wanting to return to the real world.

“Later I'll give you news, if I have time. Hehehe, Hira is getting up. Bye!”

“Basic you! Never give hope that you can't be sure of.” Dika said, making Ferdian's heart hurt.

“Why do Dika's words hurt ya?” inner Ferdian.

Flashback off

“Ya I took a shower first huh Mas?”

“Iya later change Mas, after that we have breakfast. I also want to make coffee.”

“Ok. Mas, please call Bang Ryco and Mbak Tari, maybe they haven't had breakfast. Or maybe later want to hang out with.” Ferdian just silently did not answer or signal my request.

“Ri, do you dare to bet once again with me?"

“Means?”

“Iya bet, tomorrow Hira log in or permission?”

“I'm afraid of going broke just because of a fight with you.” Said Tari considering it still has dependents on losing bets.

“For Ri's exclamations, we agree that the loser will water and cultivate the flowers in the garden upstairs. How's it? Or we canvass the loser making coffee in the office for one week.”

“Okey we agreed to the second choice only, the first one is too troublesome for you Ri. I know you're a unique woman even from your uniqueness to not like complicated take care of things like that.”

“Damn you Co., open my disgrace in front of my future husband.” Fernad glanced anxiously at Tari, not surprised at all by the fact Ryco mentioned.

“Does that have any effect on your assessment of Dance, Fer?” ryco's questions are directed at Fernad. Fernad replied with a shrug of his shoulder. Making Dari pout, Fernad smilingly shook his head and pinched Tari's cheek.

“Sorry, sorry Ri...Don't Fernad already know such things?” Ryco whispers apologizing, feeling guilty to Tari fearing that what she said made the relationship between Tari and Fernad not good. The whisper is still heard by Fernad.

“It's okay Co, I already know. Before I proposed to Tari I made sure first the worst thing she had.” Dance glared her eyes hearing what Fernad said without the slightest shield. Ryco let out a sigh of relief at Fernad's explanation.

“Keep us back to the topic. What are your options Ri?”

“I suspect that Hira remains in even late.”

‘Ok, we agree. Means last option is my choice, Hira will permission!”

“Ok deal,” Tari and Ryco shake hands in front of their partner, Fernad and Erna just buzz around listening to them being silly.
