Sincere Love Former Office Girl

"I love you,"

Aiden hid himself behind the door of the emergency staircase. Arion told the man to check the fifth-floor emergency staircase, to make sure Sekar did not eat there alone, as he did the other day.

However, what Aiden saw really shocked him. I ate there but not alone. Abiyan was with him.

A million questions immediately swirled in Aiden's mind at this moment.

Why did Sekar know Abiyan? Since when did they meet? And, how could they eat together without any sense of awkwardness in the slightest?

One thing Aiden can be sure of is, this is not their first time having lunch together, judging by how familiar the two interact.

Aiden was suddenly overwhelmed with anxiety. It's gamang. What should he report to Arion? If he said the truth, it was certain that it would instantly trigger a commotion.

Aiden didn't want that until it happened. He had to make sure Arion's head remained clear, at least until their big event passed.

The man closed the emergency door slowly and left from there without a sound.

"It seems, I haven't seen Mas in a long time?" sekar said, as soon as their lunch is over.

"I'm busy helping with Earlene's project, so don't have time to mess down."

Just nodding his head. The girl's eyes looked at Abiyan proudly. He did not expect at all, that Abiyan was one of the members of Team Earlene.

"Next week the project will be introduced to a general audience. Media crews will come flooding into this place, and almost all television stations will cover the event live." Abiyan opened her voice again.

Reflex opened his mouth. He felt very amazed. How big is the Earlene Project, so it can capture the attention of the public?

"I hope the show goes on successfully." Sekar sincerely prayed. Arion's memory runs through his head. The man was also one of the members of Team Earlene, just like Abiyan.

"Aamiin's." Abiyan. "Thank you for the delicious food," he momentarily forgot the fact, that Sekar was a girl to be hated and taught a lesson.

Smiling sweetly. "Together."

...***...

Right at night, Arion picks up Sekar and takes him out to dinner. This time he took his girlfriend to one of the luxury restaurants, which was not far from where he lived.

Mata Sekar was aghast as Arion pointed his motorbike at a modern third-floor building.

The girl grimaced in embarrassment, as the valet officer and some visitors who had just come there, watching those who came confidently using Arion's butut motorbike.

"Mas, why come here? Geez! Look at that, everybody glances at us, you know! I'm ashamed!" sekar exclaimed while hiding himself behind Arion's back.

Arion parked his motorbike first, among the expensive motorcycles there, before finally responding to Sekar's talk. "Why should I be ashamed? We're here to eat, not to beg." Arion pulled Sekar's hand and held him friendly.

Both entered the luxury restaurant accompanied by scornful gazes from some visitors.

He nodded his head deeply. Their gazes really reminded Sekar of the handful of people in his village.

In the past, the girl had often gotten similar gazes from those people. Understandably, the Sekar family is the poorest family in the inhabited village of not up to 500 people. They may not mean evil. My family and friends are treated as well as they should be. She is known as a very friendly and helpful girl. However, there are still a few people who look at Sekar and family with one eye.

Arion's tightened hands made Sekar raise his head. The girl was suddenly flabbergasted, as she saw the interior of the restaurant that was very luxurious and elegant. The atmosphere inside was so calm. There was no sound of frenetic music that flowed, accompanying the visitors. There is only the sound of classical music that is so soothing. His eyes then glanced at one of the large walls that looked most striking. There are many photos of artists and officials who have visited.

"This place is famous, huh, Mas?" whisper Sekar to Arion.

"Yes. This restaurant is famous among officials and artists. Frequently on television, too." Answer Arion.

"Early donk, Mas? Let's just go home, yuk!" insist Sekar while pulling Arion's hand to turn away. He was afraid that Arion would not be able to pay their meal bill.

"Where do I only bring money of two hundred thousand!" batin Sekar merana's.

Arion held his hand. "To eat here, it takes a long time because it must be a reservation from far away. So, don't waste my efforts, donk!" sahut Arion, pretend to be annoyed.

"Of course, I have what kind of money, so confident to invite me to eat here?" No less angry.

"Just take it easy, I got a lot of money from helping with the Earlene project. The amount is enough to eat here two to three times. So just shut up and just follow me, okay?" Arion pulled Sekar and walked over to the two women standing behind the table.

The man took out a piece of paper and gave it to them.

Looking at the paper, the two women who were originally staring at Arion and Sekar were strange, suddenly turned polite and respectful. They even immediately bent his body 90 degrees, as soon as Arion opened the hood of his jacket.

"Please, Pak–"

The two women nodded. One of them took Arion and Sekar upstairs.

"What card did you give them?" tanya Sekar wants to know.

"Cupon. There's some food we can get for free."

"Oh."

...***...

Abiyan was seen pacing back and forth while calling someone. "Anyway if you fail again, you will all receive the consequences! Wanna?"

"Big, bang. Gua must have our plan would have been a great success!" sahut a young man that Abiyan spoke to.

Abiyan hung up the phone without saying anything more. The man stared intently out the window of his apartment. If their plan this time succeeds, it is certain that Arion will get a lifetime of shame, as Erlina wanted.

...***...

Arion and Sekar eat in a private room. At first the girl was astonished by the way the restaurant was served. They do not serve the whole food at once, but rather take it out one by one, each finished the previous meal. Not to mention, the portion of food in that place was very little.

"Mas must've been a regular here, huh?" ask Sekar. From the beginning Arion invited him here, actually Sekar had guessed, that this was not the first time the lover ate in this place.

"I've met a few clients here." Reply Arion without a second thought.

Sekar nodded. While waiting for Arion to finish eating, the girl got up from her seat and stepped towards the only large window in the room.

Busy looking at the city that looks sparkling, Sekar until the light, until not realizing something has been coiled in his slender stomach.

"Do you like the food here?" asked Arion while leaning his chin on the top of Sekar's head.

"Like. All my life I've never tasted such good food. Eat fast food only, only a few times in my life." She now holds Arion's palm, which is on her stomach. "Thank you for giving this amazingly pleasant experience" the girl said sincerely.

Arion's eyes turned soft. He who has investigated the intricacies of the Sekar family, knows very well how the struggle of his lover's life. Especially when he had to lose both his parents a few years ago.

"I can bring you here again, if you want," said Arion.

Shaking his head. The girl's movements tickled Arion's chin. "no need. Eating anywhere is the same for me. Even if we only ate ind*mie telor at the warkop, it was not a problem at all. I'm used to it."

Arion tightened his embrace and gently dyed Sekar's hair. Knowing the simplicity and sincerity that the girl has, it makes Arion's feelings grow many times over.

Arion then let go of his embrace and turned Sekar's body towards him.

"I love you" said Arion full of tenderness. His eyes were filled with a mist of love that was only meant for a Sekar.

"I am too." Smiling shyly. Without warning, Arion clasped his lips.

This is their second kiss. This time without tears, like that time. He even tried to reciprocate Arion's treatment, albeit with an awkward gesture.
