After Dimitri's situation was very much better, Liliana began to do activities as usual. Not much he did indeed, especially when his pregnancy grew, he also only occasionally visited the flower shop which this time more managed by Mbak Tari. For the business of picking up the Eagle, he still did occasionally, also by visiting Dimitri's office.
For the business of gathering with his two best friends is also still routinely done, sometimes Juna joined together, sometimes also not. Nabila is still not too close to his assistant, whereas others have encouraged and even gave tips to be close to Juna. No matter if it is close to a younger man, it also seems that the man really likes Nabila. But, Juna had also admitted to it, anyway. Juna is a very honest young man.
“You remember the same Enzo?” ask Dimitri.
This time Liliana and Dimitri also have a lunch appointment with someone who is known Dimitri—itri said Dimitri earlier in Liliana— in a restaurant subscription Dimitri. Well, there's not much Liliana asked because it wasn't necessary.
“Remember, why the same Enzo?”
“We'll see him this afternoon.”
Liliana initially just nodded her head, but she immediately stopped her steps when she understood Dimitri's sentence. “Enzo? Now?” ask Liliana not to believe it.
“Ya, why?”
“Not him in Germany?”
“Kate can only come here, why can't Enzo?”
Liliana hit Dimitri's shoulder slowly. “Why didn't you tell me from the beginning, anyway? You just said there was an appointment with people, I can prepare first if you say from the beginning.”
Dimitri forgets the mood of his wife's pregnancy is very up and down, but why should also be as surprising as that? They will meet with a president. Or because of Liliana's unchanging feelings towards Enzo. Dimitri still vividly remembered when he first saw Enzo and Liliana having lunch with the Eagle in the man's sling
“You still like Enzo?” ask Dimitri to investigate.
“Not so ..,”
Dimitri's gaze was still probing on Liliana, trying to intimidate her now misbehaved wife. He actually believes that Liliana has no feelings for Enzo anymore, the proof with the reference of them both. He believed in Liliana, but not Enzo. What if the man didn't know he wanted to take Liliana again?
“Maybe you should be clear later when we go home.”
Dimitri walked ahead of Liliana who was still with mixed feelings. He wanted to say if he wanted to prepare himself after everything he went through with Enzo while in Germany. In the past they had ended that liking well, but still it felt it would be awkward after a long time did not meet.

Liliana was right, Dimitri should have told her from the start that they were going to see Enzo. Right now, Dimitri and Liliana were actually standing with a huge sense of shock. Not because Enzo was getting handsome, or suddenly Liliana wanted to admire Enzo's good looks, but the woman beside Enzo who made both of them surprised.
Elleanor. Liliana somehow could still clearly remember who this woman was, not knowing with Dimitri, but it seemed that she also remembered the woman, evidenced by the shock on her face.
Elle is one of the women who used to be dated by Dimitri during college and became one of Liliana's sworn enemies just because she used to be good friends with Dimitri. Are Enzo and Elle dating or in a relationship?
It was none of Liliana's business, but the resentment and resentment she felt towards Elleanor was still clearly stored in her memory. But, not to a great extent, it was only still on his mind.
“You know each other?” ask Enzo.
Elle looked nervous in her place. Meeting people he knew when he arrived in Jakarta was not included in his agenda. But why after so many years passed he can still recognize Dimitri and Liliana who were once friends. Now if you see Liliana's growing belly, he is very sure if now they have become a couple.
“Yes, we used to be friends when I was kulian,” replied Liliana.
Why hide something if it's going to get better? They are also not criminals who need to hide something like this?
“Ah, so. That means you don't have to introduce yourself to each other, right? Come on please sit.”
“Elleanor is my secretary, it's been almost a year if I don't remember wrongly,” Enzo said.
Liliana saw a big smile on Enzo's face, a smile that she also saw when she was with him. It seems true that these two people have a special relationship. In the past, Liliana felt a little guilty because she had blamed the kindness offered by Enzo, even though it had passed very long, her feelings had not improved until now.
The guilt will return at their unexpected meeting, although he tried well to be ordinary, the awkwardness still enveloped him.
“Kate also just returned to Germany a few days ago. Are you guys working together for the same project?” ask Dimitri.
Dimitri actually doesn't know if this is just a job meeting like it should be or just a meeting between Enzo and Liliana. He simply followed his instincts to talk about work, for he could not bear to see the familiarity of Liliana and Enzo before his own eyes. Dimitri was also not at all curious about Elleanor who was in front of them, at least when the two had a relationship—very—near.
“Can be said so. Since Richard decided to return to Indonesia and broke up with Kate, I had to start overseeing Kate's work again to replace her father.”
“You don't know if they're back together again?” asked Liliana enthusiastically.
“Really? Kate hasn't told me. So, last time he went to Jakarta because the two are back together?”
Dimitri's fear really happened. No need to wait a long time until the two are now chatting very familiarly. Yeah, it's like an old friend who hasn't seen each other for a very long time, a friend who would almost be a life partner if Dimitri hadn't shown up.
Elleanor who just kept quiet noticed the interaction of the three just scrunched her forehead. In addition to the fact that he met the two old friends in college first, at a time he did not want, the part that was very shocked by his second marriage also included. But, seeing Dimitri who was so jealous of Enzo was also a very surprising and new part for him.
But, he did not want to ask or do anything else to attract the attention of the two people in front of him. If he could, he just wanted to get out of this restaurant peacefully, without any questions for himself in the slightest. Liliana might be surprised by the other side that Elle shows, because indeed since long ago Elle grew into a spoiled princess who was very arrogant and arrogant. All the bad manners you know, Elle used to have.
“Sadly I did not bring an Eagle, Dimitri did not tell me at all if this afternoon we will meet you,” Liliana said. His eyes occasionally stared at Elleanor, he just needed to do it for some reason.
“Yes, I miss that little boy a lot. Maybe next time when I come back here again, I already have my own pointer now.” Enzo smiled mysteriously at the end of the sentence.
Liliana was very sure of what Enzo meant, and perhaps neither Dimitri nor Elleanor understood what this man meant. It cannot be wrong to mean the smile at the end of it and also the tone of voice that changes at the end of the sentence. What makes Liliana so sure, Enzo could not know other women in Jakarta except himself and maybe some employees of his office. The odds are very high for the only woman at this table, it's impossible if it's her.
“You don't want to say hello to your friends, Elle?” ask Enzo.
“Well, they seem to have been better than this to know my identity. So, yes ..”
Elle deliberately did not continue his sentence because he only deliberately wanted to say until there. Or in another sense, he doesn't want to talk to the people at this table any further.
“You seem to know very closely,” said Enzo.
“Got at all.”
“Got at all.”
Liliana and Elle said two sentences in two different languages, Elle in German and Liliana in English, which also greatly surprised Dimitri and Enzo. Both of them said that sentence firmly and also a little scream, who wouldn't be surprised?
“Well, looks like you guys are indeed very close.” Enzo grimaced at the two women, the next time he would remember that these two women could not be put together at one table.
Dimitri already knew this was going to happen. How once Liliana hated Elle so much, and vice versa. He just did not expect that this hatred would continue, how many years had they passed and still had that feeling left in them?

The relationship between Juna and Nabila is still going well until now, although Nabila gave a little distance between them. in the office as well, the distance that Nabila gave was very clear, although, until it feels like Juna himself must have felt it. Most of the employees in the office are women of different ages, and male employees may be counted.
Juna is one of them, and Nabila knows that there are some women who also pay attention to this Juna. Fellow women must really understand the feelings of other women, right? Nabila is not stupid, and she can know how much the female population in the office is talking about her at rest, even from other parts as well.
“You know, right, if Juna is now really the same as Mbak Nabila?” said a woman.
“Truely they are close, their work also requires them to be close to each other.”
“It's impossible that if they were close because of work, I've seen them get into Steak and co. both doing. Yes, they were coworkers.”
“Yes Juna's taste has that tail? Mbak Nabila, right, widow.”
It was just one chat that he got when visiting the toilet some time ago, other chat in different places also often Nabila get. That's what he will get if dating a coworker, especially if it's a coworker that many people really want. Juna is not the right man for her.
“Mbak not eat?” ask Juna.
Nabila like aware of something and began to look at the man who also filled his mind since some time. Yes, you guys are also not wrong, Nabila still often had lunch together with Juna outside like this just to avoid awkwardness. Nabila decided it himself in his mind. He wanted to stay away from Juna, but also remain professional as a co-worker, this lunch was part of that professionality.
“It turns out near the office many nice restaurants, huh? I really just found out because you brought this,” said Nabila. He began to bribe Soto in front of him.
“It's only a small part, Ma'am. If you want to go back a little more, there are more restaurants that are cheaper and it does not feel the same as in front of this.
“I am a lover of cheap food, anyway, especially the many portions and prices tetep.”
Juna laughed at Nabila in front of him who was saying that sentence with a very flat and emotionless face. At least there must be a little emotion in it so that Juna does not get it wrong, but the flat face is like telling everything.
“It looks like everyone is like that, deh, Ma'am. If you can find a cheap one, why should expensive nyari?”
When I smiled seeing that. If she wanted to be honest, she was eager to follow the advice of Liliana who told her to date this man. When he could have done it, the potential he had was huge, but he held back. Although he could start liking other men, the man was definitely not Juna, their differences were too striking and it would hurt him more in the future.
With all the personality and attention that Juna has given, who wouldn't be pounding about it? All those habits were also ingrained in him, and when Nabila decided to stay away like this, there was a rebel in him. He had the right to like this man, so why did he choose to back off and hurt himself again?
But it seems like the word ‘hurt itself again’ is too much. This is not about hurting anyone, because basically more things that Nabila should think about and also work on appeal just think about which man he should date next. There is a small family that he has to take care of and think about, why bother thinking about something else?
