"But you enjoyed it, honey. The proof is that you shrieked my name as well," Bryan replied smilingly as he put his mischievous wink towards Manika.

It was successful in making Manika's face meet with embarrassment. Because what Bryan said is true.

A few minutes later the car they were riding in reached the plateau of the Natakusuma residence. Manika was a little reluctant when she would step her foot into the house. He felt very ashamed of what he said this afternoon.

However, with full gentleness Bryan grabbed Manika's hand and grasped it tightly. As if saying everything will be okay. Manika nodded her head slowly, then the brand stepped their feet into the Natakusuma residence.

They did not find any residents in the room. Then Bryan walked to Ayumna's room in this house. Followed by Manika who walked behind him.

Two middle-aged people wrapped their hands around each other. In the middle of them was an adorable baby girl. Bryan could not wake them. Likewise with Manika who is not happy if you have to make Bryan's parents awake again.

"Take Cloe slowly, Mas. I have to go home soon." said Manika who understood by Bryan. Because this morning Bryan asked his grandmother for permission, to take Manika only until eight at night. Not more.

Slowly and tenderly, Bryan tried to lift up Cloe's bully without making her wake up. Bryan takes Cloe out of the room and gives it to Manika.

"He looks a lot like me. Didn't you notice?" bryan said suddenly as he rubbed slowly the head of Cloe who was still asleep in Manika's sling.

"I just realized that, if you're close." Manika replied then gently kissed her daughter's forehead.

Then Bryan drove Manika to his house. Despite the weight of removing them, but Bryan will be a little more patient for their gathering day later. Because he had to talk about this with both his parents as well as Manika's parents.

The next day, Manika worked as usual. He was almost late to the company, because he realized that there were so many traces of work made by Bryan on the neck of Manika's level yesterday.

His friend's tumben came with a bent face. His appearance was also very strange. It is currently in the dry season, but what is used by Manika is very strange and disturbing scenery.

How not strange, if at this time Manika wore a scarf that was coiled around her neckline. Because Gauri's curiosity is very high. Plus Manika who did not answer his question, with a very high level of kepo, Gauri stepped closer to where Manika was standing.

Without Manika noticing, Gauri raised her hand and opened the cloth that covered her friend's neck. What was seen by Gauri's own eyes, made her squeal stifled. Because now the condition of the loby is very crowded with new employees coming.

"Ni-nika.a-are you the demon of a tiger?" gauri asked in a soft voice, but also in a frightened tone.

Gauri's question successfully made Manika silence her friend's mouth with both palms. Everyone will know the traces on his neck.

"Shhhhhhh!!! Can you just shut up? Maybe everyone will look at us" said Manika then lowered her hand from Gauri's mouth.

"I'm just surprised. The smooth white skin of your neck is really a lot of bruised-bleached marks. Like the motif on the body of a leopard," Gauri's chirp made Manika blush in shame.

It is impossible for Manika to tell the true incident to her co-worker. Maybe he will be sprayed all out by his friend who is most chatty to him.

Then they continued their work. Manika still did not take off the scarf that coiled around her neck. Though sebum departed earlier, he had used the foundation on the bite marks from Bryan. However, the number of traces so that the foundation he had was not enough. I also want to buy the time to go to work.

"For Ma'am" said a young man who looked charismatic and it was able to surprise them both. Especially Manica.
