Not Love But Married

Kang Tombal's

A drizzle accompanies an increasingly late afternoon. Rania sat quietly in the small round chair in her living room.

Dani was still fixedly staring at Rania who was bowed deeply while squeezing both her hands. His feelings like mixed with erratic, so astonished with Rania who can be tough to face his ordeal. Left for good by her newly married husband one month, and in a young pregnant condition.

'Your extraordinary woman Rania', inner Dani, was amazed by Rania's stubbornness.

"Does anyone in the office know about your husband?".

Rania looked up at Dani with a pleading gaze, "Not yet, mas. I beg Dani not to tell anyone in the office.".

Dani let out a long sigh, "Why is it kept secret?".

"I.. ", Rania fell silent, looking for the right word to continue her sentence.

"I don't mean to hide it, Mas.Mas Dani, Miss Sarah, Miss Winda and. Mr. Arsha never asked me that question. So. I'm just answering the questions I'm asking."

Dani again sighed long, but it was true that Rania said, when she asked not to think of asking about the status of Rania's husband is still alive or not.

"I beg you, Mr. Dani would like to keep this secret. I'm not ready yet, Mom.".

"Why not ready, not ready what?".

"Because, I'm afraid that later office people will look at me with pity and pity. I don't want to be like that, Mom.".

Dani sighed softly, "Rania, I promise I won't tell anyone. You take it easy.".

Rania smilingly looked at Dani in front of her, "Please, mas. Dani has helped me a lot over the years. I was confused as to what to repay him with.".

Dani suddenly smiled mysteriously, "I'll definitely ask for her reply, just wait for Rania.".

"I mean... ", Rania was confused by Dani's words.

"Okay, I want maghrib. I'll go home first, greetings to Andra ya. see you tomorrow at the office. Assalamu'alaikum's chat.. ", Dani immediately got up from the living room sofa Rania left Rania who was still curious about what Dani said.

"Thank you again, Dani. Wa'alaikumussalam's... ", Rania was silent staring at Dani's departure, finally there was one office person who knew about her husband who was gone for good. During this time he felt more calm with his status known to be married, so others will not ask his personal details more details. Unlike if he said his status had been widowed because the husband had died, there would definitely be many questions. That's what Rania had actually been avoiding all along.

Rania steps into Arsha's study, after being invited in by her ruler.

"Good morning, Mr. Arsha.".

"For Rania.", Arsha replied while looking at Rania who was standing in front of her.

Rania immediately opened a record of daily activities on her iPad.

"I'll read the agenda today. Today there was a meeting with the interior design team of Pesona group in the discussion room at 10 o'clock, then there was a meeting with the leadership of Angkasa group at 13 o'clock, at the Princess Hotel. ", Rania told Arsha.

Arsha looked at Rania, observing Rania's gentle and comfortable-sounding speech. A clean white face that only looks in front of her face, because part of her head is covered with a veil. Beautiful and graceful, that was what was evident when meeting with Rania.

A polite appearance with his clothes are always covered, which unwittingly makes Arsha get used to and feel comfortable and calm if near him.

Besides that, Rania's work is so neat and organized in making reports, preparing her agenda every day, making her more happy and satisfied with Rania's performance.

She should thank Sarah for choosing Rania to be her secretary. Arsha knows why Sarah chose Rania to be her secretary. Rania is not a seductive type woman like her previous secretary, judging from her appearance alone must have been very clear, if Rania is not the type of itchy secretary who has been working with her.

Rania ends the report of Arsha's activities today, then turns her eyes to Arsha who turns out to be looking at her with an incomprehensible gaze.

"Sir... Mr. Arsha", call Rania slowly.

Arsha awakens from her daydream, then quickly bows her head to cover up her misdeeds.

"Yes already." he said quickly, hoping that Rania would soon pass from before him. Shame and prestige for being caught off guard from earlier was busy staring at Rania.

"Sorry sir, I asked about the meeting invitation with the board this afternoon, sir".

Well, the shame itself is Arsha, from being busy assessing the appearance of Rania to not focus on what was conveyed by Rania. Arsha pretended to be busy with the paper on her desk. Her pride as a CEO is now almost falling in front of Rania.

"You set the clock" he said without looking at Rania.

"Good, Sir. Then to... ".

"Just set everything up", Arsha immediately cut off Rania's speech. Rania was speechless, it seemed like the Boss sir was not in the mood today.

'Did I say wrong? Why does the Boss sir like not deigning.?', Rania's mind is confused why her boss so ketus so.

"Good, Sir. I'll excuse you, sir.".

"Yes, go".

Rania turns her body and soon passes from Arsha's presence, with questions on her mind.

Arsha looked at the back of Rania who had gone away, 'Stupid.... stupid..' grumbled Arsha while hitting her own head with her palm, then leaning her shoulders onto her oversized chair. Unwittingly, Rania has made a big change in the way she looks at a woman.

Today is sure to be a busy day. From morning to afternoon Arsha's agenda is full, and Rania must always accompany all her activities from noon to afternoon.

"Rania, have lunch at the princess hotel with the boss. I'll follow you there if the business with the interior design team is done.".

Rania immediately stopped her activities that were tidying up all the important documents of the new apartment building project, "Lho, mas Dani did not all eat there?", Rania has begun to fidget at the thought of having to eat one table with just Arsha.

Rania glanced at the wall clock in front of her, indeed it did not seem like it would be enough time for Dani, the contract with the interior design team is still on process, and can not be abandoned, he said,

Arsha himself sent Dani to continue his discussion with the team.

"Why Rania? You definitely don't want to be away from me right?", ledek Dani with a flirtatious smile.

Rania glared at Dani who smiled softly, "Ihh, mas Dani, long ago ngeselin kayak kang gombal... ", Rania shook her shoulders amusedly looking at Dani's now more aggressive behavior than before.

"No papa so kang gombal, as long as the girl is rich you. I'm even ready to be a mop for you, who can mop up all the dirt and dust that sticks in your heart... ".

"Hiiihhh, ah, mas Dani. Long-long tickled his dreadlocks... ", Rania passed leaving Dani who was still sitting in the discussion room with the interior design team. Already at 11.40, you should pray first, before leaving for the Princess hotel with Arsha.

"Excuse me, here's the order", a male servant brought the order that Rania had requested.

"Thank you, Mas", said Rania kindly to the waiter.

"Please Mr. Arsha, his cappucino coffee.".

Arsha who was playing her mobile phone immediately turned her eyes to the table.

"I'll just order a cappucino" Arsha looked at Rania in surprise because Rania ordered a cake for her.

"Drinking coffee should be accompanied by cakes or other small meals, sir, to maintain stomach health. Because caffeine levels in coffee can increase stomach acid."

Arsha stared fixedly at Rania, feeling admiration for the woman in front of her. 'Really a good woman... '.

"Ohh... Alright"

Rania grabs a warm orange on the table, "Bismilbornrahmanirrahim, ", then takes a sip. She had only ordered soup cream for her lunch, because actually Rania was still full and did not want to eat, let alone having to eat big in front of her Boss.

Arsha glanced occasionally at Rania who was so calm enjoying her lunch. A small smile bloomed on Arsha's lips. It turns out that this calm is adjacent to Rania, it's appropriate that Dani continues to stick to Rania despite knowing that Rania is married.
