The Autumn In Heart

The Autumn In Heart
Part 7's



Briyan picked me up at the hostel and they drove fast among the other vehicles. Tonight it looks like I might look pretty with creamy Hem wrapped in long hair that is always neatly tied. I also wear black jeans. Looks harmonious and simple. I don't usually give it and dress like this.


"So where are we going?" ask Briyan to me.


"I want to go to the beach, I like the night view there" I replied.


"So, what do you mean you're taking us out tonight? don't tell me you're gonna cancel our contract." Tanya Briyan looked at me briefly and returned to driving.


"No, not that. Just relax."


"So, about what?" Briyan began to wonder.


"It's just a question of approach, because I have so much to know."


"Hmm, impressive. Enough to make me curious."


We both arrived at the beach. The view of the beach at night is enough to make anyone fascinated by its beauty. A gentle breeze blew hard to make my hair fly here and there, fortunately I tied it up.


Some lovers are also seen being engrossed in chatting and taking pictures. There are some food vendors there. Looks a bit empty buyer.


"We better have a chat while eating, how?" Ask Briyan.


"Okay, let's go get some food first. I haven't eaten since I got home from work either."


Briyan and I wrapped up the food and found a comfortable seat on the beach. There are a lot of long benches.


"So, what do you want to talk about?" asked Briyan enthusiastically.


"The first thing I want to ask is, why are you telling Merry about me as if you love me for real? and ask him to take care of me? am I too important to you?"


Briya was silent for a moment then laughed wryly. "So, it's bothering you? hahahaha," he laughed again.


"What's my funny question?" many wonder.


"I told him to take care of you, was that wrong? after all, you must take care of each other because now you live together," said Briyan with the same expression.


"Oh, so."


"And it looks like Merry also misunderstood, well. misunderstood what I did myself."


"What does that mean?" I asked full of wonder.


"Before I met you I liked someone, every day I always asked the woman Merry. It's just that Merry has never seen the woman I like in person, or just seen her picture. So Merry thinks that woman must be you," said Briyan still smiling with keenness.


"Oh, so. So Merry's been misunderstanding all along."


"Yes, you're right."


"So, why don't you just marry the woman you love? why did you choose to marry me?"


"It was because of my father and mother" said Briyan, this time his expression changed drastically, he looked sad.


"What's going on?"


"When you fall in love and want to have each other, your parents disagree with your marriage. That's very painful. Unlike a marriage that is not based on love, if one day has to run aground it will not hurt one and the other."


"I agree, but I'm hard-hearted to accept the fact that I might become a victim of your family."


"You're right, because that's what. We don't need love." said Briyan with a heavy heart.


"That sounds too sadistic" I looked at Briyan at a glance, I could see sadness in his eyes.


"Is it really sadistic?"


"So, why do you bother making a fake wedding while later I will drain your property, such as the apartment you promised, luxury cars and others. Why don't you be alone for the rest of your life if you don't feel like you need love?"


"it was because of the demands of my grandparents that they wanted me to get married. Because I'm just an only child."


"So, why are your parents torturing you in such a way? that's not fair at all."


"They're saying they want to have a great son-in-law, who understands business, so that one day they can continue their business."


"So where's the fault of your ex-lovers?"


"Let's see, I think it's all wrong where my parents are."


"So, after marriage, I'm sure to have some tough days."


"Your choice is right, I like money and guarantees for the future. I hope my choice won't be wrong."


Briyan smiled at my words. That night we told each other a lot about our personalities. It was a long night for both of us.


After my conversation last night with Briyan, I became even more relieved. Now I know the reason why he wanted to marry me. This morning I was so excited, that I just passed Merry by while whistling.


"You look so happy, last night's date must have been fun" she smiled at me.


"Not really, just ordinary. By the way you're cooking breakfast again huh?" I open the pan and the pan.


"Yes, I cook every day" he said, taking dishes off the shelf.


"That's a hassle, why don't you just buy it outside?" my question is full of wonder.


"I have the same allergy to flavoring, so I can not carelessly snack outside" he said while taking his cooking in a pot and pan.


"Repot is also your life, Mer, as long as I live in the city I rarely cook. Because I'm too busy working, I want the practical to continue."


"You should also have breakfast wi, don't bother with my cooking. Just eat whatever I cook, okay?" merry said with a smile.


"But, cooking without flavoring will taste different. So, you got a secret recipe?" ask me with a very curious feeling.


"Yes wi, I taught my mother some recipes so that the cuisine feels good even without flavoring."


"What recipe? tell dong, tomorrow maybe I'll cook breakfast for both of us."


"I used to use fried shallots or fried garlic, real chicken broth, pure mushroom broth, pepper and so on. The kitchen spices are all easy to find, I just need a lot of stock in lieu of flavoring," he said, continuing to eat his breakfast until the last mouthful.


"Maybe I can peek at you cooking tomorrow."


"Yes, of course," said Merry.


After breakfast, the two of us headed to the office. Today I'm the one who hugged Merry. His body was so thin that it looked taller than me. Moreover, we have to use high heels, so Merry looks taller than me.


I'm actually not used to using high heels. Good thing I work indoors, so I always take off my high heels and plug.


"Where's your shoe?" briyan asked surprised me.


"Sorry sir, my legs hurt" I looked at him with a wry smile.


"really? luckily your legs are white, imagine if they're black, want to plug?"


"Already sir, you better finish your work outside. You always bother me."


"I'm the boss here, I have the right to go wherever I want" he said casually.


"Sir, you're bothering me to work. Right now I have to concentrate. What if I make a mistake because you keep bothering me? are you going to cut my pay?" I started to get upset with him.


"Of course your salary will be cut if you make a mistake."


"Listen yes, sir my boss. Soon the salary division. Although I haven't worked a whole month, but you should pay me well. Because my motorcycle you hit it status is still on the cicil, you remember being in-ci-cil."


"Not that you have given me 30 million, the money is not likely to run out to pay your motorcycle installments, right?" the question kept pissing me off.


"My money is intact, sir my boss. Money in case I kick you out of this company."


"Hahahahahaha," Briyan laughed out loud at my words.


"Is that funny, sir?" I asked while looking at him as if I wanted to swallow him whole.


"Hahahaha, just the time I met a fierce woman like you. Your way of talking is not polite, especially later we will get married. I hope your fierce nature doesn't fade in front of your in-laws." He laughed again, and it made me even more upset.


Briyan walked out of my room, she walked very leisurely while whistling. Apparently my literacy is now a happiness for him. I must be a funny toy in her eyes.


"Secretary Merry, make me some hot milk coffee."


"Yes, sir." - Merry responded swiftly.


All day I worked hard, making my eyes ache and my head become dizzy. Working in front of a computer makes the eyes become tired faster. Sometimes I rub my face.


At 4 p.m., all the employees were getting ready to go home. Today I was so unlucky, I walked and tripped. My high heels made me fall and sprain. I could barely stand up, fortunately some people helped me get up and massaged my sprained leg. After that I trudged up on the bike and Merry hugged me in the back.


Arriving at the boarding house, I saw that all my personal belongings were already there neatly arranged. Apparently Briyan already paid someone to organize my things. Since this hostel belonged to him, it was not impossible for him to enter without an excuse.
