Geck... Geck... Geck...
Andre's office door was knocked from the outside, he felt a little confused while looking at the watch in his hand that had shown at 12:15 pm.
"Isn't it lunchtime? Did Luna forget something I had to do?" andre was confused.
Geck... Geck... Tock....
Once again the door was knocked from the outside, hearing that Andre stopped his work.
"Get in.." said Andre.
The door opened and it turned out to be Carlo, who was on the other side, slowly opening the door and entering into Andre's luxurious room. His eyes widened to look at Andre's study.
"Are you satisfied to see it? Why are you here?" ask Andre wonder.
"Ah... I-I came here to take Lucy to lunch together, I didn't see her at her desk so I guess she's in your room, sir." Carlo stammered.
"He didn't tell you he had lunch outside with Luna? Aren't you his best friend?" ask Andre wonder.
"Lucy didn't tell me anything, alright then sir excuse me to go to the cafeteria" said Carlo put on a sad face.
"I don't think Lucy forgot about you, are you okay having lunch alone?" ask Andre.
Carlo halted his steps and turned to face Andre with a hopeful look.
"I don't know either, since he was close to Luna our relationship has been a little strained. But it doesn't matter, just so Lucy's glad I'm happy too. Would you like to have lunch together?" ask Carlo expectantly.
Andre looked at Carlo expectantly, seeing him in the face by Andre, Carlo was suddenly a little uneasy.
"Ahh sorry I was sassy to invite you to lunch together, then excuse me first." said Carlo lowered his gaze.
"No problem, let's have lunch together. It just so happens that I also don't have any lunch friends because Lucy went with Luna, so where are we going for lunch?" andre asked seriously.
"really? You want to have lunch with me?" Carlo didn't believe it.
"Do I have to repeat my words?" ask Andre.
"Ahh no-no I understand, how about we have lunch at the cafe near this office?" ask Carlo.
"Well let's go there" said Andre.
Carlo smiles happily at Andre's lunch, and he plans to take Andre to the cafe where Lucy had lunch.
Not long after they arrived at the cafe that had been planned, Carlo looked around the cafe to make sure Lucy and the others were still in this cafe. They walked into the cafe and Carlo purposely brought his body closer to Andre to make it look like he was joining the man.
Lucy who was observing around suddenly her eyes were fixed on a figure she knew, yes it was her best friend and her lover who had just entered the cafe. He was really confused because didn't Charles refuse his invitation to lunch outside?
"Lucy what's wrong? You're not eating?" ask Rosy wonder.
"Yes... It's true, it's him." said Rosy sure.
"Didn't you ask her to join us?" asked Luna who was also astonished.
Carlo, Lucy and Rosy arrive at the cafe they are heading to, eagerly choosing a table in the corner and close to the window to enjoy the view from inside the cafe. They immediately asked the waiters to deliver the menu book and order the food. Once they have finished ordering, waiters ask them to wait a while to be able to prepare their order.
"I heard from my friends that the food at the cafe was really good. I'm finally here with you guys" Rosy said excitedly.
"You ordered a lot of food, are you sure you're gonna spend all that?" ask Lucy not sure.
"Calm down, we'll help Rosy finish him off" Luna said as she rolled up her shirt arm.
Hearing Luna's words, they laughed in unison without caring about the surroundings who were paying attention.
"It's a pity that Carlo didn't join us, as I recall she was also a strong woman when it came to eating" Lucy said.
"I'm sure he's now regretting his decision not to join us. Anyway, I don't think he likes me and Luna is friends with you" Rosy said frankly.
"How could Carlo not like you guys, he just still can't adapt to the new work environment" Lucy said.
"I think what Rosy said makes a little sense, even if she's a little bit unsociable at least she should try it, right? Even this is not the first time we have lunch together" said Luna corrects Rosy's remarks.
Lucy just nodded without any reaction and a word came out of her mouth. He thought that Carlo might have something he couldn't tell because of Luna and Rosy beside him.
"You've been friends with him for a long time, haven't you? You must know him very well." said Rosy.
"Yes, we met while I was working in a minimarket in the suburbs first. He was the first employee to teach me so much, and he was also the one who cared so much about me at work" Lucy said.
"Meaning you have shared many things, I salute your friendship" said Luna.
"Yes, we always share sad, happy stories even stories together. He was very loyal when I told him about my difficult life, even he often helped me so as not to always be the months of my father who was very fond of gambling" said Lucy.
"Well, I hope you only share such things with her, don't share a lover with Lucy" Rosy said.
"-you mean? How could you think that Carlo would take Andre away from me, he understands me so much" Lucy said.
"No one will stand to see a man like Andre, and not only you who want to have a lover like our master" said Rosy.
"But I'm sure Carlo couldn't have done something like that to me" Lucy said in disbelief.
"Well, now is cornering season, I'm just reminding you because you're my friend" Rosy said.
"Have it, instead of talking about it we better enjoy lunch today. This is the food has arrived all, let's quickly spend it. Otherwise, I'll put you on the list late at the office." threatened Luna.
"You're such a heartless woman, Miss Luna, you could have done that to us" Rosy said.
Lucy and Luna just smiled at the words of Rosy who had taken her food and ate it voraciously.
