That night was a discussion with Saka. Even when it was signed, the debate was not finished. In the end, the debate ended with a covenant. If in three months Saka has not been able to change my feelings, then we will be friends as usual.
"Happy?"
"Not satisfied. I want no agreements. Live what it is."
"You're weird too. Suddenly comes dating. You like me?"
"If I said 'yes', would you believe it?"
"No."
"Judek. Assume it is not. What's the harm in going out with me, Nay?"
"I'm single. I don't have a pregnant wife. Already have a job. The face is not ugly. Body is high. What else is less?" Saka posed with two fingers under his chin. His smile was full. I know between the lines are tucked into insinuations for Mr. Armand. I try to ignore.
"Lack of pounding!"
"I've made you flutter. Remember?"
"That's called cheating. Tau ah, really sprain if you talk to him. There is no end. There is always an answer. Come home there. Tomorrow we're still working. Hush, hush."
"OK girlfriend. I'm going home. Kiss it first." Saka turned his lips and closed his eyes. I swear yes, if there was a blackened p*attat pan, I would have put it on his lips. Very anxious about the behavior of this man. Soldiers but no jaims.
"Hurry home. Before I throw the helmet." Rough jokes like this we're used to. And no one offended each other.
"Ready! Do it!" Saka made a respectful gesture. "Together door lock. Tomorrow I set up a trellis for the windows and doors ...."
"Huh? Make what? It's a people's house, it can't be installed at will."
"Which got must be happy Nay. There in. Lock the door."
"Where to go."
"I go home when I see you come in and lock the door."
"Yes, yeah. Thas. Thanks to ya."
"Yes, same boyfriend."

Saka kept his promise. After seeing me come in and close the door, he took his bike away. Tonight was exhausting. A lot of things happened.
The flashes of memory began to spread. From the insanity of Saka's proposal, Mr. Armand's departure and Saka's request to become a girlfriend. Of all that crazy stuff, all I remember is Mr. Armand's response.
Why did he leave? Did he know that Saka and I were just pretending that he was too sick to see the drama in plain sight? Will I be able to trust Saka, using this ring will make her believe?
Sir, please don't be weird. Please don't confuse me. Act like a married man. I'm really gonna try to forget you, sir.

The morning came so fast. I was worried what kind of treatment I would get. I've prepared diplomatic answers if he calls and asks about the continuation last night.
In fact, instead of being coined, I was dicuekin. He was in his room all day. Not calling or telling me to do this-that. Actually it's a good thing. Don't I want him not to interfere in my affairs?
Never mind, don't think too much. Let's finish the job and go home. I'm sure I'll get used to it gradually and forget all the flavors that were on her.

Time is almost five o'clock in the afternoon. I cleaned the table and prepared to go home. A few moments later, the desk phone rang. I'm appalled. I think the call from HO, it's from BM.
"Assalamu'alaikum, good afternoon with Arsha the back office there can be helped?"
"Arsha, please gather all the employees. There's something I want to say" replied the voice on the other end of the phone.
"Good, sir." After that, I started contacting the staff and we gathered at the banking hall.
"Over the past year we've been working hard. The company greatly appreciates the performance of all of you. For that, we will hold a family gathering to Bali as one form of corporate reward. You may bring your family, children, wife, husband. Be free!"
Almost all the employees were screaming. I'm having fun, going for a walk but the company pays for the necessities. Who is not happy .... Why do I feel like someone is staring at me? I circulated the look around the room, and sure enough. In the corner of the room, standing apart from the others, the man who had been ignoring me all day was staring at me intensely.
