~Happy Reading~

The next day, Aaric woke up as usual and went down to the sports room which is one of the apartment facilities provided for residents. He also wants to swim, because he feels his body is not fit after a long and long stretch. Coupled with the tension due to bad weather and almost canceled landing, as well as an energy-draining event with Mama Carren.

After she finished swimming, she returned to her apartment unit and cleaned her body and put on casual clothes, a collared shirt and shorts. He plans to talk to Jekob in his apartment. When he wanted breakfast cereal and milk, he remembered Carren. 'Surely this hour is in his office.' Aaric. After breakfast, he picked up his cell phone and called Carren.

📱"Arra, where are you?" Aaric asked, as Carren responded to his call.

📱"There's in the office, brother. How's it?" Carren asked in surprise, as Aaric had never directly contacted him. Usually will chat ask his position, just call.

📱"You're busy today, aren't you?" Ask Aaric again. 📱"Business, Brother." Carren replied, not understanding Aaric's question.

📱"You can skip, no?" Aaric's question again confused Carren.

📱"Son Aaric, is Arra the son of Sekolshan? Big brother speak clearly, don't confuse me." Said Carren who could already talk casually with Aaric, because Aaric's attitude to him was more open and relaxed.

📱"I want to take you off work today. Want ngga?" Aaric smiled to himself hearing his conversation with Carren. He's like a teenager trying to escape the classroom.

📱"Sister Aaric, just say you want to meet. Why use the show say skip everything. All right, I'm gonna skip. Brother share loc a place to meet, yeah." Carren said, because he also wants to meet with Aaric.

📱"Ngga. Someone will pick you up. You get ready and set up with your employees, so they don't look for you. Maybe you'll skip lunch." Aaric said happily, Carren can understand and put it first.

📱"Good, Brother. I talked to the employee first and told brother, when it's ready." Carren said, then Aaric ended their conversation with pleasure. Then he contacted Sapta to inform his members who had secured Carren to escort Carren to his apartment.

Carren asks Rosna and Ichad for help, and sends Aaric a message that he is ready. Aaric asked her to come out, because soon someone had picked her up. Sapta had asked her members to turn around a little, so Carren knew they had just come to pick her up. Not been around his office from morning.

When Sapta's members informed her that they were approaching the apartment, Aaric put on his trousers and went down to the lobby to pick up Carren. "Jeez, Arra. Why is your face like this?" Aaric asked, as he watched Carren get down from the car with a slightly pale face.

"Sir Aaric, next time I share the loc, deh. I'll just take a ride, rather than get picked up. I thought I was kidnapped again." Carren said calmly, seeing Aaric pick her up in the lobby. He was worried and scared in the car with Sapta. Although security members have calmed him down by saying Mr. Aaric asked them both to pick him up.

"That's one of the next stages you need to learn to get used to. They'll pick you up often, if I can't pick you up." Said Aaric while gently rubbing Carren's arm to calm him down. Carren nodded trying to understand Aaric's request.

"So my sister asked me to skip breakfast at this place?" Carren asked, while gently hitting Aaric's hand that was embracing his shoulder. Aaric nodded with a smile, then took a seat. Then he ordered a sandwich for breakfast and a warm lemon tea.

"Ara wants the same breakfast? The sandwich here is delicious. I like breakfast here, if it's in Jakarta." Aaric. "I've had breakfast, brother. I drink the same as my brother." Carren still feels full, because of the rice breakfast sitting from home.

"Try it a little, if it doesn't fit, leave it to me." Said Aaric, because he had already ordered two sandwiches for him. Carren nodded in understanding then tried it. It turned out to be delicious as Aaric had said, so he wanted to spend it.

"Sir Aaric lives here?" Carren asked, upon seeing Aaric dressed casually. He just noticed it, because it was still tense with the security members so he realized it. Aaric only wore a collared shirt, so his arm muscles were clearly combined with jeans. Carren had only seen Aaric in such clothes with his hair still slightly wet, making him very handsome in the morning.

"Yeah. I live here. This is the next stage, skipping to know where I live. So that later, you can know where I live. The future wife does not know where the future husband lives." Said Aaric bekanda, ledekin Carren ysng still many questions in his head, visible from his face.

Aaric's words made Carren choke as he was about to drink his tea. It made Aaric blow his face then stand up and pat his back slowly. Then sit back after seeing Carren is better.

"Sir Aaric if you talk, like it right." Said Carren who had overcome his seductiveness.

"Arra, luckily I haven't had a drink. Here's how you're gonna pat me on the back." Said Aaric, smiling at what Carren said.

After finishing breakfast, Aaric takes Carren up to his apartment unit. Upon entering her apartment, Carren was stunned. The room is very spacious and luxurious. "Did Aaric's brother live alone here?" Carren asked after being asked to sit on the padded and luxurious black sofa in the living room. He looked at the quiet passage, so he thought maybe Aaric was living alone.

"Yeah. If it's in Jakarta, I live here. Previously only in hotels, but lately there is a better place to stay alone. So choose to stay here, so that it is not far from the office. You like this place?" Aaric asked, because if they were already together he thought of Carren's wish as well.

"Yeah, Brother. The place is comfortable, but very quiet. I have no neighbors." Said Carren who used to live in a crowded environment. He also did not understand the meaning of Aaric's question.

"So you want to live in a residential area?" Tanya Aaric was serious. Seeing that, Carren only realized that Aaric was asking his opinion if they were together later, he wanted to choose where to stay.

"Ooh, how good does Brother Aaric think, I'm coming." Carren said from his happy heart, because for him the important thing is to be with Aaric, surely his day will be colored.

"You try it all day here, or come here often. If you're suitable, yes, you won't have to find a place to live in Jakarta." Aaric said seriously, because he already has a home in Switzerland and Australia. He never thought of owning a home in Jakarta.
