"I told you. Even if you lose your memory, your heart and feelings are still the same. You're still a good Rachel, understanding and always putting others first." Farel threw a smile, without taking a look from Rachel's eyes, Farel rubbed the back of Rachel's hand with his thumb.
Rachel nodded and suddenly became nervous.
"I-I'm gonna go to the toilet for a second."
"Want me to take you?."
"No need to go to the toilet."
Rachel tried to remove Farel's hand, but Farel actually tightened his hand.
"Start the jail."
Farel chuckled, then with a heavy heart took off his hand. Rachel glared anxiously and rushed towards the toilet.
Rachel was nowhere to be seen but a smile still adorned Farel's face. The moment with Rachel never failed to make Farel smile himself. About 10 seconds passed, but Farel was longing.
Distracting and busy themselves, Farel also issued a phone to check the incoming work message or email.
"Farel."
Hearing the call, Farel looked up. Instantly his expression turned tense once he realized who the owner of the voice was.
"Brandon." muttered Farel.
Brandon was not alone, behind him were three middle-aged men who patted Brandon on the shoulder. They left the restaurant first. Looks like they just finished eating here but it's on the 2nd floor. This restaurant has two floors. It just so happened that Farel was on the first floor so when he arrived at this restaurant Farel did not see Brandon and his colleagues.
This is not the first time we have met. A few times I did not know in a restaurant like now. At hotel meeting rooms, corporate centers, or weddings and business partner engagements. Moreover, their work is equally entrepreneurs.
They used to have disagreements, but over time their relationship improved. Especially when Rachel is missing, they seem to be a solid team to look for Rachel. But behind the cooperation, there is fierce competition to get Rachel back.
"How are you?." Ask Brandon.
"Well." replied Farel.
Brandon stared at Farel's chair. There is a sling bag and cell phone with soft blue color cassing. These things are like women's. Brandon met Farel several times, the first time Brandon saw Farel go with a woman.
"Who's the same way?."
Farel cleared his throat several times, trying to remain calm despite the heart's condemnation of Brandon who was too concerned. It feels like Farel wants to get Brandon to leave, it's up to Farel to come here with whom it's not his business. But the more Farel warned, Brandon must be getting curious.
Now Rachel's still in the bathroom and she'll probably be here soon. Farel is secretly racking his brain for excuses.
"Farel," call Brandon again.
"Rani" Farel replied quickly, "Gue came here with Rani, Rani is my sister."
While Farel was relieved after saying that reason, Brandon also looked confident and nodded. Farel hoped Rachel didn't come here quickly. At least after Brandon left first.
About Rachel and Brandon. Farel doesn't want them to meet, at least not now. Maybe after Rachel's memory returns. But come to think of it, Farel should just meet Brandon with Rachel.
They used to be in a relationship even though it was only for a while but if Rachel ever felt comfortable and happy with Brandon. Maybe after they met and chatted Rachel's memory recovered faster.
But what if Rachel's more interested in Brandon. What if Rachel falls for Brandon.
The dilemma once, Farel suddenly became overthinking himself.
"Well, why don't you go?" asked Farel.
"It's also been going "Brandon Brandon raised his hand and saw the watch wrapped around his wrist, "Gue also still has the agenda of meeting with my secretary. But I want to talk to you for a minute about Rachel."
'Ah had a chat let alone the heck, can not really go now, ' Farel's mind was irritated while moving his legs up and down. Farel occasionally glanced at the toilet.
"Well, where are Rachel and Aunt Ayuma?.'
Farel also wanted to tell Brandon, moreover, they had worked together and were open to each other. But his protective and possessive side held Farel to honest work.
But considering Rachel was already here, they also lived in one city, sooner or later they must have met. There's no point in Farel hiding Rachel's whereabouts any longer than Brandon.
Maybe honestly it's better that he and Brandon can work together to recover Rachel's memories.
Farel also does not want to be selfish by thinking about his own feelings without caring for Rachel who wants to immediately remember. Rachel's encounter with Brandon may unlock Rachel's old memory and speed up her memory recovery.
"On that," Farel cleared his throat, "Rachel...."
Farel did not answer Brandon's phone suddenly rang. Brandon picked up the call apparently from his secretary.
"Yes, I'm on my way there. Okay." Okay."
Ending the call, Brandon looked at Farel.
"Let's talk again. I'm in a hurry now. But I beg you if you have any news about Rachel and Aunt Ayuma please tell me."
Farel nodded, Brandon left the restaurant in a hasty step as if there was an emergency.
Shortly after Brandon exits Rachel's entrance arrives. At once Farel breathed a sigh of relief for Rachel who had not met Brandon.
"I'm sorry, that was a long mules."
"Let's just relax."
Rachel had just sat down, along with the service that came to bring their menu of orders.
"Yeahhh has finally come too" Rachel cheered cheerfully as she clapped her small hands.
Farel gave a smile seeing Rachel's reaction. Absolutely not changed, since Rachel saw the food, must be happy and excited.
"Rachel you know, you have a funny slogan."
"What?."
"Whatever the problem, the food solution is."
Rachel laughed, "Oh huh? Then I want to eat really yeah, did I get fat?."
"No, you're ideal. And you should be thankful that I'm the one who ngegym you."
Putting the side dish onto her plate, Rachel looked at Farel.
"But my hunch says I must have been annoyed with you because you used to force me to go to the gym."
Farel nodded while putting the rice cassava leaves mixed chicken broth into his mouth. While Rachel was tasting her rendang, they both ate by hand.
"Yes, you are always angry, but in the end you are angry too. Tomorrow we go to the gym in our apartment that used to be there many memories of us all we work out both."
Rachel pursed her lips after swallowing her rice field.
"Of the many things that we can do why should the sport Farel? please go somewhere else."
Farel laughed, "Although you lost your memory, personality, traits, habits and even whining and joking you didn't change much. You're still my cute, jolly, lazy Rachel."
