Mara goes with Steven, but her mind and heart are like being with Byan. Should he go to Papua to meet a man he has not seen in recent days? If he knew in Papua where Byan is, one day he even wanted to go on vacation to the island which is famous for Raja Ampat's tours.
However, it seemed that his wish was dashed. After yesterday had recalled Andryani's request to stay away from the Malik family. Stay away from Star, also away from Byan. It was hard, but he had no other choice.
Today, he felt that he was parting ways with Byan. Although they live on a different island, Mara is convinced that one day they will be reunited.
Despite a harsh ban, Mara still expects and waits for news from Byan. Not knowing himself, but this feeling he can not lie.
"Mara, what are you looking at?" Steve asked Mara's daydream from the outside of the plane window.
"Island, it seems fun to go on vacation there," said Mara without turning her eyes to look down.
"I'll take you to the island one day" Steven replied, but there was no response from Mara. Even turning his head for a moment he didn't do it. It seems Mara is so cool to look at the view of the earth from the plane with a mind that flies out of nowhere.
"Mara, if you knew. Wherever you want to go I'll be ready to take you," Steven's inner gaze turned away from Mara's pretty face.
After getting tired of the view below, Mara tried to turn her head and how surprised she found Steven's face looking at her with a smile.
"Steve???"
"Why? You surprised?" Steven widened his smile. Reluctant for him to move, he just kept staring at Mara's face.
"You're so weird!" Mara began to pursed her lips, for him Steven's behavior lately is very suspicious.
"I'm weird, because of you Mara. I don't even know why I've been this weird since I knew I really liked you" Steven said. Although he impatiently wanted to express his feelings frankly, but he tried to be more able to hold it first.
Without feeling, after a few hours of air travel they finally arrived in Seoul. A country known as the ginseng country.
After getting off the plane, Mara and Steven head to the place where the hotel that Steve rented for them stayed. It turns out that all accommodations Steven has prepared carefully without any shortcomings. Even Steve has also prepared a car to make it easier if they go anywhere.
"Steve, are we gonna stay at this hotel?" Mara did not expect if Steven booked this luxury hotel as their place to stay.
"He'eum," Steven nodded his head slowly.
"Steven, isn't this too glamorous? Even I was horrified by the service they provided," Mara felt so unfamiliar that she herself felt strange about the five-star hotel Steven had rented as their place to stay.
"Hey, you're a successful female candidate! You've got to get used to all sorts of hotels in the world" Steven tried to neutralize Mara's thinking. He did not want Mara to feel inferior or hesitant because of this place.
"If I'm successful, I'll pick a place, Steve," said Mara.
"If later your business client chooses a place, how? Are you going to reject him?"
Steven again makes Mara silenced, Steven's speech does have a point. "Yes, yeah,"
"Rest! Here's your room card, and my room is next to it," Steven handed the card to Mara after they both got to the front of each other's rooms.
"Alright, I can't wait to break down this body, I'm tired ..."
"If there's anything you need, call me" Steven offered Mara a favor. He hoped that this time Mara would ask him for any help. Because he will always be ready for Mara, whenever it is.
"Ck! You're exaggerating. I could use the hotel service, "Mara just went inside. Her room just left Steve.
"Mara, Marah. You're really driving me crazy! A little bit more, I'll have you, "Steve had a monologue in his heart. He then went into his room to rest for a moment to recover all his strength. Because tonight, he had to prepare everything that he had planned.
This afternoon, Steven also invited Mara outside to review the place that will be made Mara for his cake shop. Although Mara is still tired, she is better to follow Steven, because the faster to act then it is better.
...****************...
Byan bought a new phone after learning his old phone was left at home. It was fitting that he felt something strange, it turned out that his phone did not come with him to Seoul. He was so sorry for his boredom, because of this he could not contact the house people and also Mara. The woman he always misses, the woman who has never gone out of his mind and heart lately.
Byan was trying to figure out a way to get her phone number back. But he didn't know who to ask? Because he doesn't even have any close friends with Mara.
"Adryan?" Suddenly Byan's brain headed towards Adryan the doctor and his silly friend.
But he again brushed off his mind, if he asked Adryan about Mara's mobile number then that cute mouth would spread everywhere. Byan does not want it to happen, what else if it is known by Malik. He said this was not the right move. There are still other alternatives that Byan will take.
"By, here's a list of the phone numbers you need," Kessy's arrival into her study leaves Byan listless. If his days continue to be disturbed by Kessy, maybe for a long time he can be acute stress.
After Kessy handed over the phone numbers of several important people and their families, she returned to her office. Indeed Kessy works well and professionally, he is also deft in handling a small problem. Byan admitted that, what he did not like was why should Kessy be chosen by his Abinya?
"If Mara knew this, she would definitely misunderstand," Byan was confused from where he should explain this to Mara. Although not necessarily Mara will misunderstand as she thinks. Byan was too confident.
There were many things that made Byan confused and slightly racked his brain. He has not been able to contact Mara, if he has contacted Mara then he must explain what has happened to him lately. He hoped Mara would give him some understanding.
"No! The first thing is, get Mara's phone number!" Byan threw away all his thoughts. He was more focused on working again.
Working abroad is not the first thing for him, but he must be able to adapt back in this place to be more accustomed to the atmosphere and new people.
Lunch time has arrived, Kessy immediately took her handbag to approach Byan.
"By, time for lunch" said Kessy reminded Byan who was still struggling with the files in front of him.
"By?" Kessy again called out to Byan, who was still unconcerned about her presence.
"Ck! If you want to eat, then go alone!" Byan was upset when Kessy picked up the pen that Byan was holding.
"By, I'm hungry. And I don't want to go alone" said spoiled Kessy.
"Don't spoil it with me! I'm not ..."
"You're not my girlfriend, but you're my future husband. Didn't you?" Kessy was overconfident, boldly cutting off Byan's unfinished speech.
"Let's eat, or I'll tell everyone that you're my future husband" Kessy didn't run out of sense to make Byan want to go out with him.
"You're crazy!" Bumpat Byan again. This time with higher intonation.
"By, there's a place famous for its delicious Kimchi. I want to go there, "Kessy doesn't care what Byan says or says to her. He was more focused on seducing Byan to go out with him this afternoon.
"Go it alone!" Byan still doesn't want to go with Kessy.
"Okey, after I'm gone you'll hear everyone knows you're my future husband,"
"Who would care what you say!" Byan still did not want to get out of his seat. More precisely he did not want to go out and eat with Kessy.
"Okay, I'll tell the employees if you're my future husband" Kessy laughed with a grin, then she stepped out of the room. After arriving outside, he saw many employees who passed by to go to lunch. This was an opportunity for him, he would not waste any more time.
"Hi all, I want to convey an important matter to all of you. Please listen carefully ..."
"Kessie!" Hearing that Kessy had started communicating with employees out there who were busy using her fluent English, Byan finally relented. He silenced Kessy's mouth with his arrival.
"By, there's something important that I have to ..."
"Let's go!" Take Byan. He walked first, followed by Kessy from behind.
Kessy smiled happily, she was happy because she could win from Byan this afternoon.
It turned out to be this easy to get close to Byan. If he knew, then he would have done the same thing as now so that Byan would not have been rude to him again.
Byan drives to the Kimchi restaurant Kessy wants. Today he will give up, but if Kessy does this again he will not hesitate to teach her a lesson.
Still with the same mimic, Byan put on a cold face and did not speak a word in the car. It makes Kessy feel bored because not spoken to and always ignored by Byan.
Upon arriving at the place they were headed, Byan chose a seat that was in the corner of the room. While Kessy ordered food and headed to the cashier first. He ordered the same food and drink for Byan.
"Hows it? It's crowded here, isn't it?" Kessy asked Byan, who had been busy staring at her phone.
Byan did not respond to Kessy's remarks. Indeed this place is so crowded, what else at lunchtime like this. Usually crowded places to eat indicate if the food sold is delicious and favored by many people.
"By, you should try this," Kessy tried to direct her mouthful into Byan's mouth.
"I can eat by myself" refused Byan to remove Kessy's hand from his presence.
"By, you haven't eaten since. I don't want you to be sick," Kessy tried to seduce Byan to eat. But it turned out to be very difficult, Byan still playing games on his phone.
"I felt like I was accompanying a child" Kessy laughed at Byan's childlike behavior.
Byan turned to Kessy who was still laughing, he looked at Kessy's eyes and issued his threat.
"Don't act stupid! Or I'll find another Assistant and kick you out of here!"
Kessy stopped her laughter spontaneously. Seeing Byan's gaze this time already made him feel afraid. Moreover, he threatened to return him to Indonesia, really he still wants to remain in this country.
"No need to threaten, we can talk about this all right, right?" Kessy made an offer with Byan. Hopefully Byan will forgive him this time.
"Take your attitude, if you still want to be appreciated," Byan refocused on his phone while waiting for Kessy to finish eating.
Kessy cursed at Byan's attitude, what a stone-headed cold man in front of him this was so difficult to conquer. He stirred his food inappropriately as an outlet of his frustration with Byan.
"It looks like his heart is frozen again! You weird guy! Is it true that he doesn't like women?" Kessy continued to curse at Byan's attitude in her heart. In fact, he remembered all the gossip that was discussing Byan, because he had never been seen close to any woman.
If Byan was another man, it might have been a long time ago. Like most men who are close to her, even in a matter of hours they will all bow down and adore Kessy. Which man is not tempted by a beautiful woman who looks sexy like a model?? He thinks it doesn't exist.
For Byan's problem, he just needed to wait for the right time. Byan is not disliked, Byan just needs proof and more struggle than him. That was what he had thought of Byan's attitude towards him all this time.
"So look, I'll make sure you get down on your knees and beg for my love!" Kessy chewed her food with emotion. While the eyes continue to look at Byan and the heart that continues to condemn his attitude.
While Kessy continued to look at him, in contrast to Byan who was now turning his eyes toward the outside of the glass window. His eyes were fixed on the figure out there. He even blinked repeatedly, afraid that what he saw was only a shadow. However, when he looked back it turned out that this was no mistake. The woman in white, jeans with a white hat covering her brown hair is so real.
"No way!" Byan got out of his seat as soon as possible he ran outside to be sure of what he saw just now.
Feeling abandoned, Kessy became confused. He immediately paid the food bill and followed Byan outside.
Arriving outside, Byan searched for the figure he had just seen. But now he doesn't find it.
"Where is he? Did I just look wrong?" Byan's eyes continued to circle the place where he had seen someone in his car.
"By, what are you doing??" Call Kessy with a little scream. He then approached Byan there who looked a little confused.
"By, what's wrong? Did something happen?" Ask Kessy again. But as usual, he did not immediately get a response from Byan. Even in situations like this, Byan was still indifferent to him.
"Ck!" Byan was upset. This time he had completely lost track of someone. He clearly saw the woman walking here. Why did he leave so quickly.
Byan ran away from Kessy. He was still looking for the whereabouts of the woman he had seen in this place.
Byan immediately grabbed his cellphone in his pants pocket, he then contacted someone to help him immediately.
"Hallo, give me information on where he is at this time!"
Byan quickly closed his phone call unilaterally. He put his phone back in his pocket and walked towards his car.
