Pursuing Love in the Past

Best friend

In a building not far from a bundo restaurant, Adrian and Conny were sitting with 2 fat men. Serious faces implied there was something important they were talking about.

After almost 2 hours of talking they finally made a decision.

"We will withdraw the remaining funds according to the calculation."

Adrian gasped at the decision of the investors, except Conny the two fat men did not want to continue investing in Adrian's business. Although they have to pay a penalty for breaking the cooperation relationship.

"But..."

The two men raised their hands to stop Adrian saying.

"We'll give you 2 weeks." The two men immediately stood up and left Adrian with a lethargic face.

Suddenly Conny patted Adrian's shoulder softly. "Patience, we try to find a way out" Conny said comforting.

Adrian kept thinking the times he had offended someone, but not a single name he managed to remember. I don't know who spread the issue about the business that he started from scratch after resigning from the Santoso Station company.

"It's been... Don't worry, there's got to be a jakan out." Conny continues to convince Adrian. The sweet behavior that Conny showed was like a wife who was encouraging her husband.

Adrian nodded slowly. "Thank you, you're my best friend."

Deg.

Adrian's words stop Conny's heartbeat. There was a sense he wanted to express, but he was unable to express it. In silence he weeps over his late misfortune meeting with Adrian. But I want more than a friend, his inner self.

"Hey.." said Adrian who broke Conny's daydream. "Why are you the moody one now?"

Conny pulled the arch of his lips. "Ah, it's nothing" he told a lie.

"Can we go back to the restaurant?" adrian asked, because he didn't bring a vehicle. He left his vehicle for use to his two parents.

"Come on", take Conny with you while standing up.

They got up from their seats and stepped out of the place.

There was a pair of eyes that looked from a distance and recorded everything that was happening there.

Upon arrival at the restaurant Adrian grabs the phone from inside his bag. He recalled having activated silent mode so as not to disturb their meeting earlier. His eyes widened when he saw the many calls from Ayunda.

"So Yunda was looking for you, son" said the mother who was walking up to him.

"Has Yunda arrived in London?" Adrian asked as he led the mother to sit in one of the chairs.

"Yes", said the father who had just come, but heard Adrian's words. Then he sat down next to his mother. "Say he keeps thinking of you." The father continued his words when his weight managed to stick to the chair.

Adrian was silent for a moment. Does Yunda know what just happened, her inner self. Adrian looked at Conny who had just sat down almost at the same time as his father.

Conny raises his two shoulders, as if understanding the meaning of Adrian's gaze.

Then Adrian tried to contact Ayunda again, but his phone was not active.

"Yunda's phone isn't active, yeah" Adrian said.

"Try it later. Probably running out of power", said the father casually. "Dad stay, son." The father hurriedly left them, because he suddenly wanted to go to the toilet.

"Mother also wants to see the kitchen." the mother chimed while standing from her seat.

"Yes, mother." Adrian replies with a slight yell, so that the father hears him.

After the death of both Adrian's parents, Adrian and Conny are currently sitting together at one table. They sat facing each other, until Conny freely looked at Adrian's face. He's handsome, Conny's inner.

"Hi, Winda", greet Conny politely.

"Oh, hi", replied Vinda with a little gagu. "Can we talk alone?" ask Winda.

"Conny's my best friend. Is there a secret that she can't hear?" Adrian immediately replied to the word of Winda.

Winda was silent for a moment. "Ehm, it's actually about our relationship, so outsiders don't need to know."

"Conny is not an outsider", Adrian defends Conny, causing Winda's heartache, while Conny tries to hold back his smile.

"Okay, I'll talk about it another time." Winda left the place with a sense of annoyance, until his goal to cook breakfast in the kitchen of the mother ended up void. His stomach that had started to sound made his irritation increase.

When he was in the car park, Winda opened and closed the car door. After sitting on the steering wheel, Winda shouted while slamming the steering wheel. From the parking lot he can see clearly Adrian is smiling without feeling awkward while talking to Conny.

"What does this relationship mean to him?" Winda muttered with a sad face, because Adrian did not hold back his departure at all. After 5 minutes he sat quietly on the steering wheel, his rumbling stomach rang so hard that he forced him to leave the place. Winda then drove his vehicle to leave the restaurant bundo.

This morning Reina worked so cheerfully. After the difficulty is resolved with the help of Tya. He also managed to do all the work that had previously been piled up on his desk.

"Thank you, Miss Tya" Reina said, holding her hand.

Tya replied with a nod. Then his hand held something. "It's an invitation for you, you forgot to come, bring your girlfriend too."

Reina read the invitation in her hand.

"Sir Reno" he said.

"Do you know Reno?" tanya Tya was curious.

Reina nodded. "Sister Reno who has a cafe near the Tri Karya campus, the campus where Reina attended first, ma'am."

Tya also nodded. "It's true Reno. But now he was busy with business out of town. So the cafe's been handed over to his brother."

"Oooo.." replied Reina with a mouth forming a circle.

"Don't forget to come, yeah" Tya said as he grabbed his tote bag.

Reina nodded back. "God willing."

"I'm going home. Good luck." Tya left Reina ready for her job as secretary.

Not long after Tya's departure, Winda came together.Tony.

"Reina", greet Winda.

Reina, who was drunk when she saw Tony did not respond to Vinda's greeting.

"Hi, Reina." Winda greeted him again.

"I, yes ma'am. Can anyone help?" reina asked as she swallowed her saliva. Why is he suddenly here, Inner Reina.

"It's Tony", said Winda introduced him to Reina.

"We already know each other, ma'am", said Tony to get Winda straight to the point.

"Oh, good then. You guys can work well together, waiting for Alfian to return. Because for a while Alfian's job was taken over by Tony."

"Well, ma'am", said Reina with glee. Not with Tony. Right now he was eager to go dodge from Reina.
