Fay breathed a sigh of relief in successfully completing his work before lunch hour. The sound of mirrors and makeup tools in the drawer, rearranging make up on the face to keep it perfect without bruises.
She visited her husband's office for lunch. With a favorite menu he prepared.
"May Mas Nero like, it is not in vain I find out through Galen," whispered Fay optimistically.
*****
"Sorry, Madam. Mr. Nero was not in his room. He left an hour earlier than lunch."
Drrt... Drrt... Drrt... Message from Nero.
π² Messages from Nero to Fay -> J*la*g! Don't expect you to be able to take advantage of office CCTV just to get close to me! Go home!
"There's a message you want to convey, ma'am?"
Fay shook his head quickly and then rushed away. His heart ached, the sentence was too harsh.
"Taking a husband's lunch isn't a low thing." Fay breathed a sad sigh. Actually he was also surprised, how Nero could know his plan.
Remembering the CCTV that can be seen from his HP makes Fay understand. Nero must have had that, too.
"It's also great that he can read people's minds" Fay said.
Lazily returning to the gallery, Fay decides to stop at a city park that looks quite unique. Many visitors enjoy their lunch there.
"It seems like eating in the park is not a bad idea." Car parked in the park parking lot. Fay was happy to find an empty bench a few steps from his car.
A view around the park. He had never been to this park before. His hobby was just passing by without the slightest intention of stopping.
Not far from the park, across the street stands a magnificent building. One thing caught his attention. The name of the company is reminiscent of something.
"Adyatma Company, very familiar," Fay commented reading the name of the plank of the magnificent building.
"Miss JF," call someone from the side. Fay who was in the moment surprised to find Albie was already standing straight there. His appearance is very formal typical office.
"Albie." Fay immediately stood bowing respectfully toward Albie.
"You alone?"
"Just look for a new atmosphere, bosen eat in the gallery," replied Fay, "Why are you here?"
Albie pointed at the building across the street. "That's my company."
"Have lunch? I happened to bring supplies, enough for 2 people."
Albie nodded immediately. His smile held as much as possible to make him look ordinary.
"Miss JF cooks herself?"
"Fay, call me Fay. It seems strange if you call me by initials."
"All right."
Small conversations with various exciting topics just flow. Unknowingly Fay begins to get comfortable with Albie. He no longer feels awkward.
The two parted ways with the promise to meet again the next day for another casual conversation.

Nero's not coming home tonight. Just now he sent a message about staying at Widi's apartment. Reluctant at home, Fay decides to return to his father's house.
The reason she gave was because her husband went out of town on business. Fortunately, Arya Bramantio believed her daughter's answer.
Silent contemplation in the room makes Fay remembered with Galen's story about Nero and Widi. Social media at HP. Their names alternate.
"There may be other information on their social media, perhaps" Fay thought as he moved his finger across the HP screen.
Each account has a photo of togetherness from the time of SMA to adulthood. Romantic poses in various moments and places.
The last photo is dated the day before the family meeting. The day her father tells her that the two are being betrothed and must get married in the near future.
Her eyes were hot to the fact that this marriage was indeed a compulsion for Nero. This fact is not the same as Galen's story.
"Galen! Loe lied to me on purpose, huh?"
"I had to find out about Mas Nero and Widi on social media, in their post last plastered meet it the day before the family meeting. You lied to me!"
π"Quiet, I swear I don't know! Wait, social media? How can you open their account?
"The truth can!"
π"Where's Loe?"
"In my own house. Mas Nero nginep's outside. There's business."
π"Gue glides."
An hour later Galen's car stopped in front of Fay's fence. After sending the message, a few minutes later Fay came out. They decided to find a nearby cafe.
Again Galen explained that he did not know about the last meeting. What he knew he had told Fay.
"Gue wondered why you could open both accounts. I can't."
Fay tried it himself, it was not possible.
"Loe ever tried to open another account?"
Galen patted his eel. The resemblance he had was just a look. Nero's still a lot smarter than his dick.
"That means Mas Nero and Widi purposely blocked everyone especially loe" Fay concluded.
"But your husband is loyal, right? You ever see them walk together, meet, or call diem-diem?"
"More than that! Even I with their voices fuck!" That sentence was, of course, only in the heart. Fay just shook his head.
Fay felt Galen didn't need to know any further. This is enough of an issue that he has to bear. For him the risk of the contract was too terrible.
"Gue also said what, the panting since meeting you, the two of them have never met again. Point!"
"Look innocent what a bego hell loe!" fay's nagging.
"Damn loe! What I'm talking about is a fact."
Fay just assented even though the facts clearly speak otherwise.
Tonight one fact corroborates the evidence that Nero was forced to marry her. Although bitter, he will also gather further evidence.
For Fay, the attitude Widi showed was too perfect. That's clearly suspicious. He wants to prove the truth.
"Reverse, yuk!" bring Galen.

I also paint sometimes. Her hobbies are painting. Most like to eat half-cooked egg soup noodles, spinach, tomatoes, and some slices of chili.
Never been dating but recently married to Arlrescho Nero Adhitama CEO of CV Adhitama Group.
Ben just read out Fay's profile. Albie stiffened at the last sentence about Fay's status.
"Marriage is the result of an arranged marriage, sir. One more thing. Miss Fay's mother died in the same plane crash as Mr. Nero's mother."
"A remarkable coincidence" Albie commented softly with a grin full of mystery.
"While it's just that, sir."
"Good job, Ben. You can go."
Along with the departure of Ben, he looked at once again Fay photos neatly stored in the HP gallery.
"Beautiful and special women are always easy to get a mate, but he is only a mate. You are destined to pair with me" muttered Albie optimistically.
