Secretly Loving You's

Ch 47 - Will You's

"How long has it been?"

"What?"

"Like the husband of people."

The question was asked in a relaxed tone but it caused a shaking effect. I'm flabbergasted. Staring at Saka fixedly. Throat feels dry. It's hard just to swallow.

"I don't know what you mean?" I argue while turning my face.

"Nay ...."

"W-what?"

"How long have we known each other?"

"N-don't know. I'm not counting."

"Even though we haven't seen each other in a long time, do you think I can't know how you feel, Nay?"

"Don't know!"

"How much is it in your relationship?"

"We have nothing to do! You're wrong!" Nadaku. Let alone 'in a relationship', the man knew my feelings were 'no'.

"Oh, apparently it's just a one-sided feeling." Saka muttered that I could hear clearly.

"Yes. It's just one-sided. Satisfied?!" my ketus. It's getting stifled. Free to cover it too. Saka already knew. I was stupidly crying on his back. Want to dodge like never mind?

"Why do you like him?"

"I don't know."

"You want to continue?"

"What?"

"feelings."

"Crazy. It's not."

"Continue?"

"There is no continuation. I want to try to make a lupain. Satisfied?!"

"Good girl." Saka rubbed my hair. "Nay?"

"What?"

"Do you want me to help you make Lupain?"

It feels very relieved to have friends who can be invited to share complaints. I always kept it to myself. At Saka's insistence, I told him everything. The kindness of Mr. Armand that I misinterpreted. My ignorance of his status and my desire to forget him.

One way to forget is to pretend to have a partner. The problem is the attitude of Mr. Armand who always wants to interfere in all things. Especially curiosity about the couple.

Saka caught my point very quickly. Unasked, she immediately volunteered as a 'pretender' couple'. At least one problem is solved now. Hopefully no other problems ahead.

***

The trouble I didn't expect came the next morning. As soon as I arrived, I was greeted with a cold look. He sent me to his room. I feel dejavu. The same thing happened a second time.

"Set up my meeting with him. It's an order," he said without a shadow of a swing. I was at a loss for words against this man.

"Tell you, sir. Actually I can refuse your orders, because this has absolutely nothing to do with work. But, if by meeting make you stop to interfere in my affairs again. I'm gonna do it. Can you guarantee that you won't interfere in the future?"

"depends."

"Depends what?!" I think I want to stomp my feet.

"Depends he's worth it to you. So when, can I meet him?"

"Do I have a choice to refuse?"

"Can I apply for a condition?"

"What?"

"Take Nadya's mom."

"What does this have to do with him?"

"That's a condition of mine. If you object, I also object to arranging this meeting."

Mr. Armand was silent for a moment. His face looks like he is weighing.

"OKAY. Nadya I'll take it. So when?"

"I will inform you as soon as possible. Then, excuse me."

***

Saka agreed to meet. He even looks very enthusiastic. In the look of his eyes was like a determination to win. I don't know, I don't know his way of thinking either.

It was finally decided that the dinner meeting would take place after returning home from the office.

Mr. Armand had apparently made a reservation at one of the hotel's restaurants that had a very calm atmosphere so that the conversation could take place.

We leave separately. Mr. Armand was with Nadya in the car, while Saka and I were riding the bike. We arrived almost simultaneously.

Nadya's look is really cool. Wearing a maroon dress with hair that is freely stroked. Pregnancy does not prevent her from always looking beautiful. As soon as he got out of the car, his hand immediately crept on Mr. Armand's arm. As if to show that the man is his.

I can read Nadya's mind a little. She was worried that I would be interested in her husband and would snatch him. All right, I'm interested. But in my dictionary, there is no such thing as wanting to have what others already have. I'm not that crazy. Tonight I will show you that his worries are unwarranted.

Actually, this situation is very funny. A superior invites his subordinates to dinner by bringing their respective partners just because the superior wants to know about the subordinate's partner. Is there anything strange and ridiculous beyond this situation?

"Yuk. Bengong aja." Saka grabbed my hand and held it. She smiled very sweetly. His appearance tonight is so cool. He wrapped his body in a black shirt fitting the body. Shows the shoulder fields and curves of his stocky body. Her hair was combed and combed. He looks like a young executive getting ready for dinner with his girlfriend.

You could say, my appearance and Saka were distant. How not? I wear after one set in light gray. Typical clothes that are only worn at work. I didn't have the chance to dress up, so my appearance was what it was.

Seeing Saka like this raises its own pride. At least Saka did not look embarrassing in front of Mr. Armand and Nadya. I can boast of Saka.

"Thank you for accepting my invitation" Armand said as the four of us sat in their seats.

"Actually quite surprising. A boss invited dinner. I assume, maybe Nay's performance was so good that the boss paid more attention like this. I'm accepting your good intentions. Thank you for inviting me."

Mr. Armand cleared his throat. "Yes, his performance was good. We did not get acquainted yesterday. I'm Armand."

"Saka. It's good to know you." Saka's answer was very diplomatic and organized. The bengal and rancid effects are gone. Replaced by an adult and authoritative figure.

"I didn't expect to be able to have dinner with you like this either" Nadya cut off with a cheerful face. "Ah, seeing you guys makes me happy. The lady, pretty. Handsome boy. Very harmonious. Is it Bi?" Nadya nudged Mr. Armand's arm with the tip of the elbow. The man being asked for an opinion was just silent. Staring with an unsettling look. Nadya who felt ignored smiled awkwardly.

"Oh yeah, how long have you been dating?" Nadya turned the question. I haven't been briefing on this with Saka. Getting questions like this confuses me.

Unexpectedly, Saka took my hand and grasped it. Bring that hand to his lips and kiss him.

"It's been a while. We're LDR. Actually I'm quite worried ...." Saka's voice sounded doubtful. I couldn't say anything because I was too surprised to see his convincing acting. Where did the kid learn from?!

"Worry why?" Nadya held the conversation. He did not pay attention to the man next to him who was already petrified. The face hardens with the lips forming a single thin line.

"I often leave him on duty. I worry that his feelings will change. I want to tie it up. But I was afraid he would refuse. Perhaps, if I asked in front of those he respected, he would accept it."

Suddenly Saka stood up. Then he made a kneeling gesture like the man who was about to propose. My feelings are starting to feel bad. Saka's acting is too excessive. If the next scene is the same as I thought, it's not funny anymore.

Justright. Saka took something out from behind his pocket. Blue velvet box, which I can guess what it is. My mind has turned upside down. Thinking about what reaction I should give.

A diamond ring was thrust right in front of my face.

"Arsha Nayyara Usman, will you marry me?"

Saka is already completely insane of the acute level!!
