Son-in-law for Mom
(Children's Story) - Stopping Deril
Aliya turned her head to look at her HP screen that was on, there was an incoming call from Deril, there was a,
Aliya : “Halo, Deril.”
Deril : “Aliya, how are you doing...? Are you busy?”
Aliya : “I'm good, actually I'm a bit busy. Why are you calling?”
Deril : “Can you come? There are some contracts that you should review today.”
Aliya glanced at Aldo who was staring at his HP screen, but it seemed like he was eavesdropping on his conversation with Deril.
Aliya : “I'll come, I'll let you know when I get to lobby.”
Deril : “I told the receptionist to let you go straight to my room. I'll wait for you.”
Aliya hung up on him, while he was in Aldo's office because Aldo wanted to be accompanied when he was working on his new project. Aldo looked at Aliya who was now staring at him,
Aldo : “Go, take my car. When you're done, pick me up here.”
Aliya : “How did you know?”
Aldo : “I'm trying to trust you, but don't try to play behind me, or..”.
Aliya : “Or what?” They're not even engaged yet and Aldo has dared to threaten her,
Aldo : “I will marry you the day after Andra's wedding and won't let you go until you're pregnant.” Fix it! His threat clearly showed Aldo's level of indecency.
Aliya : “Do you dare to do it?”
Aldo : “I get full support from my parents and your parents. What makes me not brave?” aldo said confidently.
Aliya : “Why would I get engaged to you?”
Aldo : “Because you love me.” Okay, double PD.
Aliya : “It looks like I have to cancel it..” Aliya replied while staring hard at Aldo.
Aldo : “Appaa...?!!!” aldo's screams made his entire study vibrate.
Aliya : “...I haven't finished talking..”.
Aldo was already moaning Aliya, pinning her on the couch. Aliya looked at Aldo calmly, her hands moving around Aldo's neck.
Aliya : “Are you angry?”
Aliya's index finger moved to touch Aldo's ear, down to the neck, to the buttons of Aldo's shirt. Daringly Aliya unbuttoned the shirt, her index finger moved down Aldo's chest, causing Aldo's anger to recede, changing into a heavy roar of breath.
In the next instant, Aldo felt a stinging heat in his chest, Aliya again pinched his chest until it turned red.
Aldo : “Aaaoooooowww…!! Ssshhhh...!!”
Aldo fell off the couch after Aliya pushed him. Aliya got up from the sofa, took Aldo's car keys and walked out of the room.
Aliya : “I go first. Bye.” Leaving Aldo still moaning in pain.
------
Aliya arrives at Deril's office, he parks Aldo's car next to Deril's and walks in. The atmosphere of the lobby looks quieter than usual, only looks security and receptionist. Aliya remembered what day it was, not a holiday.
The receptionist, who saw Aliya coming, immediately greeted her with a friendly smile and immediately let Aliya into the elevator. Aliya remembered that this receptionist who treated her was not good before. Aliya enters the open elevator and presses the floor button of Deril's office.
The elevator opened and Aliya walked out of the elevator, tracing the hallway until she arrived in front of Deril's poorly-closed workspace. Aliya could clearly hear Deril's words to her secretary,
Deril : “Take the flower in after I tell Aliya how I feel. And I don't want to be bothered until I'm done with Aliya.”
Aliya moved quickly knocking on the door as if she had just arrived, secretary Deril opened the door wider, letting Aliya in.
Aliya : “Hai,Cecil, Deril.”
Deril : “Hai, Al. Sit down, what do you want to drink?”
Aliya : “Air white only.”
Deril : “This is a contract you should check, and there's more on my desk. Can you finish it now?”
Aliya stared at the pile of contracts, he counted the time, at least he could complete 5 contracts until the hour home because he had to pick up Aldo.
Aliya : “I can only work until 5, I have to pick up Aldo after that. Can we start now?”
Deril : “...who is Aldo?” deril whispers.
Aliya : “What?”
Deril : “Ya, we start now.”
Cecil, Deril's secretary brought water to Aliya and left them alone. Aliya started to do her job, her forehead contorted to read word for word in the contract. Sometimes he scribbled the words and wrote the right ones in the corners of the paper.
Deril was still staring at Aliya, he felt hesitant when he wanted to say something, Aliya knew that Deril and Aliya had had had time to suppress his desire earlier by mentioning Aldo. But Aliya still behaves
------
An hour before 5, Deril keeps an eye on the clock, looking for a chance to talk seriously with Aliya. This cute girl had already completed checking 7 contracts and was checking out the 8th contract. He seems to enjoy his work.
Deril walked up to Aliya and sat down next to her,
Deril : “Aliya, rest first. I want to talk to you.”
Aliya : “Talk, I'll listen.” Aliya said without looking.
Deril : “I'm serious, Aliya. See me.”
Aliya turned her eyes to Deril who was already smiling sweetly.
Deril : “I want to say, thank you for taking care of me the last time I was sick. Sorry I never told you about my past, well you know for yourself the reason.”
Deril took a heavy breath, becoming nervous as Aliya looked at him. The same look he had gotten from Viona when they first met. Deril stopped the words he wanted
tell it to Aliya.
Why after so many years and he met Aliya, Deril still compared this girl with her deceased lover. Deril lowered his head, his mind raging between right or not. Is she really in love with Aliya again? Or just see the figure of Viona in Aliya.
If she's wrong with her feelings, Deril will hurt Aliya just like he hurt Viona. Deril's feeling was chaotic, he leaned his body against the sofa, clutching his chest. This time it was not a panic attack, the last time the panic attack came and Aliya was beside, Deril never again experienced it. He's healed now.
Aliya is still waiting for what Deril will say next, she is ready to stop Deril with just a few words about her relationship with Aldo.
Deril : “Aliya, sorry if I was presumptuous, but.. I'm really confused now.”
Aliya : “Why confused? Obviously, I'm not Viona.”
Deril : “...Yes, you're Aliya, not Viona.”
Aliya's words were like a hammer hitting Deril's head, making him even more dizzy. Aliya thrust a glass of drink at Deril who immediately drank it,
Aliya : “Breathe calmly. What you're trying to say, I already know. I heard it clearly when I came earlier.”
Deril : “...”
Aliya : “I understand how you feel, but it doesn't seem to me. Your heart has just healed right, someone who is injured and finally healed after a long time, will easily melt in the heart that is near him.”
Deril : “If it's not like that how?”
Aliya : “Try you remember again, how similar I am to Viona, I mean not our faces, but my nature, my habits.”
Deril : “There are some parts of you that are similar to him.”
Aliya : “Then why? So many humans in this world, it is impossible not to have the same nature, right.”
Deril : “So..”
Aliya : “Find the woman you love, not because she looks like Viona. But you really saw him with the path of love. You've come this far, it's time you forgave yourself and gave
chance on another woman to be yours.”
Deril : “Didn't you like me?”
Aliya : “I like you, but as a good friend. Friends who have helped me so much to complete my task, even giving me a chance with a job I like. But love is not love.”
Deril : “I understand..”
Aliya : “After all I have found love... and this feeling is really warm.”
Deril : “You mean Aldo? How did you guys meet?”
Aliya : “Our father was good friends, at first I thought it was just a friendship, but getting closer to him made me realize that I was starting to love him. We'll get engaged next week.”
Deril : “Congratulations to you, will I be invited?”
Aliya : “If you want, come to Indonesia. I'll send you the invitation.”
Deril : “Makasi Aliya, makasi already want to be my best friend.”
Aliya : “I think we can be more than just good friends..”.
Deril : “You mean?”
