Solar Throne

Promises

"It's Miss." Surya offered Gina drinking water. Gina looked at Surya and received the plastic glass filled with water for him.

"Thank you." Said Gina who was smiling by Surya.

Suddenly the ringtone of Surya's phone makes a sound. Surya saw the name on his phone screen. It was from his secretary.

"Yes, how's the preparation, Sandra?" Surya asked immediately as if he knew what his secretary would say.

"Preparation is 100% sir, because tomorrow is the opening day of the R-Store at the 102nd branch. But if you want to delay, I'll confirm to the relevant parties that we postpone."

"No, we'll still do the grand opening tomorrow. Don't delay. All preparations are done. We can't delay that because delaying is like canceling tomorrow's show." Surya felt Gina watching him. And seeing Gina looking at him, Surya smiled.

"But, you still have to be in the hometown so we should just delay first."

"I'll be back soon. I'll be back there tonight. And I'll make sure I'm there tomorrow."

"Oh, okay. Then I'll book a ticket for you back tonight."

"All right, thank you, Sandra." After that, Surya hung up the phone.

He saw that his father was completely healthy. So he felt that he had enough time in the village and it was time to take Gina back to the city.

Surya stuffed the phone into his pants pocket and walked back up to Gina. Surya saw Gina watching him again. I don't know what Gina was thinking but her eyes just focused on her. And as he got closer, Surya saw Gina smiling at him. Once again Surya was confused by Gina's attitude which lately felt strange to him. Gina became softer and smiled at him more often. Surya also felt Gina to be spoiled for him often.

Although somewhat astonished by Gina's change in attitude but Surya was happy, at least Gina was not as good as before. Facing the fierce Gina was really very troublesome. Surya had to make his ears immune every time he heard Gina's nagging. Not to mention if it was accompanied by his own arbitrary attitude that Gina launched, Surya became his fault. Although it made him a bit of a nuisance, but the only way he had to deal with Gina was to remain calm and try not to be affected. As she calmed down to face him, it proved that Gina became soft slowly.

Gina's smile was indeed very sweet with those soft-colored lips. She knew her lips were not affected by the color of her lipstick. The color of Gina's lips is indeed as beautiful as it is because of the care that Gina does. She would only wear lipstick suggested by doctors at the beauty clinic where she was doing her facial treatments. And seeing those beautiful lips smiling, how could Surya not bewitched to return her smile as well.

"Miss, we need to get back soon." Surya said after being near Gina.

"Why?" Gina opened her eyes as she looked up at Surya who was standing near where she was sitting.

"Tomorrow is the opening of the R-Store in a new branch. So we have to be there."

"Can't we postpone it? I still feel right here. I'm glad to be in this place. I still want to go on vacation." Gina's Reason.

"Yes, why hurry back. Gina's mom still wants to be here." Ayu supports Gina.

"It's nothing, but the opening preparations are done. If we delay, then there will be many parties that we make a loss. Catering service entrepreneurs and the media that will create the latest R-Store catalog must cancel their jobs. All the events were well organized. Not to mention the employees who served in the new R-Store have also been commanded to start working tomorrow. That would make the relevant parties disappointed just because of us, Miss." Obviously Surya.

"Ahh, you are indeed a duplicate of Papa. It's worth it Papa likes you more than me, his own daughter. You're always this detailed." Answer Gina.

"If you make your reasoning very clear once I can't refuse any more of your call to go home." Gina pouty. Seeing that Surya then sat down in front of Gina and looked at her face.

"I promise, when we have more free time I'll bring you here again." Persuade Surya while looking at Gina fixedly.

"When?" Gina was still pouting.

"Of course, but I really promise."

"You? Promise? I'm not even sure when you have free time. When you work, you get very busy. Don't take me back here again. You probably won't even have time to take me to lunch unless it's a relationship lunch." Hearing that Surya smiled.

He remembered that he had never invited Gina to lunch while working in the same office. He always had lunch alone. And Gina always eats with Hanna. He never invited Gina because his mind knew Gina would not. Gina is not the wife who married him for loving him. So Surya knew enough not to take Gina to lunch together on a typical day. Surya knew once Gina would definitely reject him. After all he also knew Gina had become very close to Hanna so Surya let Gina enjoy her days comfortably as she wished.

But Gina's face was so adorable when pouting like that. Surya almost forgot himself and wanted to pinch his nose because he was so anxious.

"Alright, Miss. Whatever my busyness, you can make any show with me." Surya persuaded Gina not to frown anymore.

"really?" Gina now looked at Surya with hopeful eyes. The eyes were previously seen feeling sad when conveying his complaints. Seeing that, Surya nodded for sure.

"You're going to accompany me to lunch? Any dinner? And all the things I want you're gonna fulfill?"

"Alright, then let's pack up." Gina's face turned bright again with a wide smile adorning. He also stood up from his seat now. Looks very excited and went to go home Surya packed his things.

"Mas, don't be too cruel to be a husband." Said Ayu who walked beside Surya while challenging their food scars. Surya just smiled in response.

"How can you let your wife always be so alone."

"You're a little boy know what." Surya was still walking leisurely while looking at Gina who was far away from them walking among the chilli plants that had been picked by them.

"Solar's mother didn't see how Gina's mother pleaded that."

"please?"

"Ahh, basic men are often insensitive. And it's no longer a code you have to decipher but a very clear phrase that can be read." Ayu shook her head several times lamenting Surya's insensitivity. While Surya only scratched his head that did not itch at the thought of Ayu's speech.

🌸🌸🌸

Gina rests her head on the headrest of Surya's Innova Reborn, which was purchased for her parents in the village. Initially Surya's parents refused this gift, but Surya forced his parents to feel comfortable if traveling.

"Mom and Dad are no longer young. Do not ride a motorcycle for long journeys. I don't want you and Mom to catch a cold." Persuade Surya.

"You are, what have we been riding? Before you bought the bike, we even took the village shuttles. Your mother if to the condangan in the far neighbors of the village even ride a pick up car and fine. Isn't that right, Mom?" Mother Surya nodded.

"But it's different, sir. Now I can give you a car so don't ride a motorcycle if you go far away."

"Mother can't drive a car. How can we wear? You are too old to learn too. I was lazy." Kilah.

"Father don't worry, I've talked to Joko and she's ready to be the driver of Father and Mother. Whenever Mom and Dad need to be escorted anywhere, Joko will always be ready."

"Well, you're even paying Joko to be a private driver now? Not just a farm worker?"

"Yes, sir?"

"Is Joko able to drive a car this good? This car is expensive, isn't it, Sur?"

"Can sir, basically all cars are the same. I know Joko has often brought Pak Kades pick up cars to transport grain from the rice fields. So taking this car would have been a."

"You, this grain-carrying car you're like your car is this good."

"Mr, the pokonya trusts Joko everything." Persuade Surya.

"Yes it's up to you. You bought a car too. How else to." Gerrutu Mr. Surya. Surya's mother only listened to the conversation of her husband and child without commenting anything because indeed he let it be the business of the men in his house.

Now Joko is also the one who drove Surya and Gina to the airport. They're really back in town tonight. From the middle seat, Gina saw Surya talking to Joko. They are quite familiar when it is said to be only neighbors. They are also very close even though Joko is a Surya confidant who works all fields and gardens and becomes the person in charge of delivering his father and mother.

"Why rush back, Mom?" Joko asked along with their chatter about the rice fields and gardens owned by Surya who worked by him all this time.

"It's not really a hurry, but we have to go back. We have work to do tomorrow."

"Well, you always have, Mom. Always busy." Joko then laughed insinuatingly.

"Yes, someone as important as me is that busy." Surya is self-excluding again. Gina smiled wryly hearing that.

"Yes yes, I know. Looking at your success I understand how busy you are, Mas." Surya just smiled in response to Joko.

"But Sister Gina, do not get because of her busyness, Mas Surya so ignore you." Gina who suddenly called her name so excited because since then she had indeed listened to their conversation.

"Oh yeah, I'm not gonna let that happen. If he does that, I'll complain to Mom."

"Gina's actions are very precise. Just report Mas Surya to the authorities. Let Mas Surya get sanction." After that Joko laughed and followed Gina. Surya laughed too. At first glance he saw Gina from the rearview mirror of the car. He watched as he laughed as Gina's face became fresh. With reddish cheeks and lipstick lips nude color is very pleasing to the eye. His eyes began to speak. And many times made him so steal a look at Gina during the trip to the airport.
