Pursuing Love in the Past

Ayunda and Alfian

Abian stretched his muscles to relieve his sense of boredom, because it had been half a day he was wandering in Ayunda's office.

"Finally the watch that was waiting came too." Abian walked towards Ayunda's room.

He had not yet knocked on the door, Ayunda had already opened the door first. "Come, let's go", take her to Abian.

Abian walked parallel to Ayunda, so that every eye that looked at them chuckled in admiration for the match of the two. "Beautiful and handsome" said one person in a whisper to another co-worker.

After a few minutes, they were finally on the lower floor of Ayunda's office. Then they walked to the car that Ayunda would use.

"The mad father?" ask Ayunda while giving the key.

"OK", said Abian. Then they change positions.

"Why do we have to go to a cafe near that campus?" asked Abian when he had just launched his vehicle.

"I've worked there before, sir."

"Oh, so. It turns out that besides being beautiful you are also hardworking", praise Abian.

Ayunda only smiled when she heard Abian's words. Then he sighed before continuing his words. "In the cafe it was also the first time I met someone after being separated for 12 years." Ayunda smiled when she remembered the incident.

"Well, it turns out that there are many sweet stories that Yunda's mother can remember, in the cafe it is."

"Not much sir. It just so happened that there was a story to be remembered in that place."

Without feeling they are already in the cafe parking lot. Abian parked his vehicle. Then they both got out of the car.

"Looks like you're no stranger to this place."

"I've been here before. My business associate asked us to meet here."

"Owh, it turns out that besides me, there are still others who discuss business with Mr. Abian at this cafe."

Abian nodded his head. "Yes... And he's the boss of a big company."

"Maybe he also has memories here" Ayunda guessed.

"Mother Yunda was right. He has a lot of memories here."

"Em, I'm curious about the person you mean. We may know each other."

"Well, the tip in love, people.who in the future also arrive." Abian stared with a smile at someone who had just walked into the cafe. "Hi, bro!" call Abian to the person he just told me about.

Ayunda turned to look at the person Abian was referring to. "Alphian!" said muttering.

"Mother Yunda knows Alfian?"

Ayunda was silent for a moment. Is this a coincidence or an omen, the inner Ayunda.

"Em, yes", said Ayunda.

"Well, good then. How about we go to a table with him?"

"Sorry, sir. It seems that this moment is not right. We're here to discuss business", elak Ayunda who's not ready to see Alfian with another woman.

"Bu Yunda has a point as well."

Just as Abian finished his words, Alfian came to the table of Ayunda and Abian. Netraya met with netra Ayunda.

"This is your family?" abian asked when he saw Siera and Zahra coming with Alfian.

Alfian took his eyes off Ayunda and looked towards Abian. "Yes, this is my family. You're this..." Alfian pointed at Ayunda and Abian.

"Oh, we're this..."

"We're dating!" said Ayunda interrupts Abian's speech, to make Abian bemangu.

Alfian gasped when he heard Ayunda's words. Dismissed all his hopes, who had been faithful waiting for Ayunda to return to him.

"Gee, congratulations bro!" said the bitter voice of Alfian. Then he stretched out his hand until they shook hands.

Abian who is not good at acting can only follow the flow with a confused face.

"We're just dating, not husband and wife. No need to congratulate!" Ayunda confirmed the word husband and wife there.

"Father!" call Zahra while tugging at Alfian's hand, because he is bored.

"Zahra how are you?"

"Zahra forgot auntie?" Ayunda pointed at himself.

Zahra looked at Ayunda very seriously. "Zahra doesn't know auntie!"

Zahra's words made Ayunda speech silent for a moment. "Oh, then let's get acquainted. Aunty Ayunda's name, commonly called Yunda."

"Hi, aunt Yunda." Zahra greeted with a smile.

"Hi, Zahra's pretty too." Ayunda who is loving children was immediately pinched Zahra's cheek.

"Come, we'll find an empty table! I'm already hungry" said Siera, who doesn't like to linger near Ayunda's desk.

"Come on", Alfian replied briefly. "Bro, Yunda, we go to the table there, yes", point Alfian at one empty table in the corner of the room.

"okay, bro. Continue!"

"Please, brother", reply Ayunda.

Alfian took Zahra's hand in the footsteps of Siera who had walked first.

After Alfian moved away from their table, Ayunda hurriedly explained. "Sorry, sir. I had to admit my father as my girlfriend."

"Oh, that's not a problem for me." I was hoping it was reality, inner Abian.

"Please order the menu sir."

"Alright", reply Abian while picking up the menu book on the table.

 

After almost 1 hour they were there, even all the food ordered was gone. But the topic of their business discussion is not clear yet. They seemed to repeat every point in the cooperation agreement letter.

"Is there anything else to discuss, sir?" ask Ayunda who has started to care. He wanted to immediately end the meeting that was a little boring for him.

"It seems like enough is enough, Yunda. Hopefully in the future this cooperation goes well, ma'am."

"Amen."

"Amen."

"After this, ma'am Yunda is still going to the office?"

"Yes, sir. Are you still with me?"

Abian seemed to think for a moment. "I don't want to take any more mums. I'll take a taxi online, ma'am."

"But I don't feel repotinated sir. If you still want to come please."

"No, ma'am."

"Owh, okay then. I'm saying yes, sir."

"okay, mom. Be careful on the road."

Ayunda replied with a smile, then she left Abian sitting alone.

From a distance Alfian stared at Ayunda's departure with a sad face. Are they really dating, huh? But why does their attitude look like they are not dating, inner Alfian.

"Papa... I want to eat ice cream."

"Oh, yes papa forgot this was Ara's promise. Because Ara is smart, her rice is drained, papa buyin ice cream", praise Alfian to her little daughter, then she ordered ice cream strawberry flavor Zahra's favorite.

"Hi, bro", greet Abian as she approaches Alfian's desk.

"Oh, hi. Is your boyfriend home?" Alfian asked just a stale base.

Abian was silent stiff, as if he got a stray bullet, so he could no longer speak.

"Tomorrow we'll see you here again, bro? Let's discuss the matter."

"Entar I made sure of his schedule with my secretary. I'll tell ya later, bro"

"Oh, okay bro. I'm waiting for the good news, yeah."

"Okay bro."

Abian said goodbye and walked away from Alfian and his family.
