Week Later...
Sersi was lazing - laziness in his room this afternoon, from morning until now he felt uninspired. Plus she can't do anything - what now, Sersi feels she doesn't deserve to be a good woman - either. Because he was willing to enter into a contract marriage with his boss.
He now felt ashamed for having disavowed his principles and words, and also felt sorry for what he had done. He was afraid, the many parties he lied to Mr. Alden, Miss Sofia, and many more.
"Arrrgh why am I faced with this situation. Never mind, everything has happened. The important thing is I have to have money to finance Brother Adryan! Sersi you have to be strong, okay you keep yourself clean because he promised I don't need to serve his sexual desires. Okay, you have to be strong. Got to!!" he said he himself patted his chest patting thoughts - thoughts that would make him heavy stress.
Until the ringing of the phone, Sersi turned his eyes to look at the phone to see the caller id. And there was the name of his co-worker 'Amelia'.
[Hallo, Sersi? Are you sick?] amelia's voice when she called. There is no direct base to the tree.
[No, I'm not sick!] answer Sersi briefly.
[I don't think you've been in the office for a few days, I've never seen you go to the cafeteria or come home from work. I thought you were sick]
[Now Mel. I don't feel sick just calm, I am always healthy!]
[Oh thank goodness, so why don't you go into the office again. Are you moving to another company?]
'Okay how to say yes, yes time must be honest' inner Sersi monologue.
[Hmm that way, I need a break Mel. Almost 3 months in a row I always worked full time, never taking a monthly holiday. Yeah so I'll just use it now, count - count refreshing]
[Hmm, but you promised me you'd help prepare for my wedding next month. How's dong?]
'oh yes almost forgot' Sersi's inner voice while patting his eel.
[I don't forget Mel, relax I'll keep helping you.]
[Okay, I'll meet later in the afternoon at the regular coffeshop. We choose the invitation design later, you choose a good one for me well!?"]
[Ready, I'll see you later this afternoon!]
[Yes, thanks miss my luvv]
[God!!]
[Hehehe, yes I will wait, don't be late! Yea!]
Clik. The phone was cut off by Amelia. Sersi also returned to lay his body on the mattress, and played his cellphone. See the latest news timeline, and just watch a random video video that passes by the youtubenya.
Sersi remembered the condition of her brother now, she did not know the latest news of her brother in the hospital. Because Cindy has not yet given the news, then she took the initiative to call her best friend to ask her brother news and ask the money is enough is not. Because the money Sersi got from Alex, was deposited with Cindy. Sersi asked his best friend to help take care of his brother in Sicily because he still could not go home.
Sersi presses the dial, calls Cindy to make sure that her brother is alive and can still be helped.
"Hallo, yes Sersi. I'm sorry I haven't had time to call you, I'm watching and taking care of your sister" said her friend Cindy.
"It's not papa, but Cin. What about his condition, does Adryan have a lot of burns?" asked Sersi curious as well as worried.
"Sister Adryan is still critical. The burns are not very dangerous, only the foot wounds are still not completely gone."
"What critical Brother Adryan! how is the story of the hospital not providing good service to its customers?" sersi told Cindy.
"Yes your sister was critical of inhaling too much dirty smoke during a fire, making her lungs go well." Cindy replied.
"Okay Sersi, yes, yes. I have to take care of the hospital!" cindy's words to her best friend.
"Okay, let me know if there's anything".
"Okay, bye".
"Bye".
Sersi got up from the rest, and walked towards the kitchen. To make lunch for him because his stomach has started to sound kruyuk kruyuk.
*******
Time did not feel like it was late afternoon. Alex walked out of his office this afternoon, the day without his private secretary it felt like something was missing. Alex, accustomed to the presence of Sersi, felt empty not seeing him or with him.
'The woman's loneliness' Alex's heart speaks.
Alex, who had reached the bottom floor of the AR Group building, rushed to the Limousine car that was available in front as well as Clark was there. Today was very tiring for Alex, but considering he still has not proposed to Sersi has been a week since the marriage contract was signed.
Clark drove the car at mid-speed towards the Rudwig family mansion.
*******
Afternoon has arrived, Sersi is now sitting sweetly in an ordinary coffeshop that he and Amelia often visit or just hang out.
Sersi arrives earlier than usual, not wanting to make Amelia wait for him. It is better for Sersi to wait than for him.
Shortly thereafter, the clinking sound of a coffeshop doorbell making a sound indicates that someone entered the cafe.
"Hi Ser, it's been a long time here that you've been waiting?" ask Sersi's best friend Amelia."
"No, just a few minutes." Answer Sersi. He smiled at Amelia.
"I'm sorry, I called my boyfriend Mark. Really she is very protective and possessive, I often called her asking this and that" Amelia told Sersi.
"Yes yes, don't babble. He's possessive because you like to be close to male friends, so Mark might just be too afraid of you being unfaithful to him" Sersi explained.
"Hmm yeah maybe so, yeah".
Amelia then occupied the empty seat that was in front of Sersi. Now they faced each other, and Amelia started waving to call the waiter to order food first. Because he was hungry this afternoon.
"Ser, what do you want to order?" amelia asked as the servant arrived before them.
"Hmm, I want cow ramen, sushi, same iced lemon tea" Sersi told the waiter.
"Well Miss" replied the waiter while taking down the order.
"Okay Miss, please wait a minute. Thanks!" said the waiter then went away from their table, ran to the kitchen to give a note of the order.
"Ser, your feelings every Japanese food pesen continues. Must always eat ramen, is not your boss every time you come here ramen again?" amelia asked why her friend liked the noodles.
"Yes, I like all kinds of food that smells of noodles. And yes I love Japanese food, because I felt is good taste. I'm not bored even though I eat every day." replied Sersi smiled widely.
"Yes, yeah. While we wait for the food to come, please select me an invitation design that approaches the color of my wedding dress. Can you not???" said Amelia took out a sample book of invitation design in her bag.
Amelia began to open and flip through the book's paper, showing several invitation designs that could be ordered at will.
"Hmm how could it be, but do not you have to choose yourself. If I choose fear you do not like the design that I choose" said Sersi while showing to the design sample book.
"Hmmm, yes. But I'll ask your opinion, good or not, the picture I choose yes." Sersi's voice while putting on a clear face.
"Okay, that's it".
Not long after, Sersi and Amelia's food order arrived. The servants began to arrange the food on the table, and left after it was finished. Sersi and Amelia begin to prepare to enjoy their meal.
"Hmm, Ser we eat first. I'm laper, I was at the office eating a little me. Abis we discuss again the design of the invitation." said Amelia stirring her salad.
"Yes, up to you" Sersi replied.
*****
Alex was silent in his car, raging with his own thoughts. Between feeling right and wrong she's going to do the contract marriage. He was deep in his heart making sure he felt this vibe of love or just a mere obsession.
Honestly he was very empty, silent, and not passionate if there was no woman beside him. Or just one day he didn't see it he felt lost. But as hard as Alex tried to deepen into the depths of her heart, she was still reluctant and hesitant to admit that she already liked her sex secretary.
Because Alex feels still filled with wounds incised by Ellea, but it is undeniable Ellea can not just disappear from her heart and mind. He does not want to hurt a woman because he just live a relationship, but he is still carried away by the shadow of the past? Does that not mean that he is looking for an escape?
Instead of thinking about it all, somehow Alex's heart felt he wanted to look to the left. And sure enough at a glance, it was seen that the woman Sersi was in Coffeshop eating with other women. Alex arrives and tells Clark to stop him from driving.
"Clark stopped at the coffeshop for a bit" Alex said.
"Good Sir". Clark answered briefly.
Clark pulled over the luxury Limousine in front of the glasses building, which was next to the coffeshop. Alex gets out of the car when the car manages to stop perfectly, and what happens?
All eyes looked, especially the female who was there turned to look at Alex who had just got out of the car still wearing her luxurious and elegant black suit. Making charisma and aura of the boss is very obvious, making ciwi smitten ciwi.
Young, rich, good, royal and of course handsome who does not want a man like that?
Alex, who knows himself to be the center of attention, is ordinary, does not care because he is used to this situation and instead breezes just walking towards the coffeshop where his beautiful secretary is located.
"What if this one's Ser? You think it's good no, I want this one because I think the design is good and not too crowded decorator. Simple but classy in my opinion, how are you?" ask Amelia hand over the sample design book invitation aka design invitation to Sersi.
Sersi accepts the book and sees the design Amelia wants.
"Yes you are better at choosing, this is a good design. Simple not too many beautiful pu decoration." has not had time Sersi finish his speech.
Suddenly the coffeshop door bell rang, there were visitors who entered. But of the many visitors who entered, Sersi was wide-eyed when he saw the visitor who entered it was ALEXANDER RUDWIG. A class of CEOs of AR Group companies, what's coming here.
Alex and Sersi look at each other, Sersi who glared in shock while Alex did not put any face just flat but walked over to the dining table that is occupied by Sersi.
'Don't tell me he's crazy, why the dictator guy is here. Where to come again!' inner Sersi grumbling.
"Ser why not get danced.."
"You come with me now, we have important business!" without further ado Alex fits until it immediately speaks.
Amelia, who knew who the owner of the voice, immediately turned her head and sure enough this was her boss, Mr. Alexander. What does the boss want to do in a place like this, Amelia thought.
"Eh, Sir. Good afternoon." said Amelia bowing respectfully.
"Yes, afternoon is for you. You're done talking to him, he's got business with me." Alex told Amelia's employee.
Amelia looked at Sersi, what is this sign? Amel was surprised, what was the relationship between Sersi and his boss. Didn't Sersi say he was enjoying his vacation, but why?
Sersi who was stared at instead looked like asking for help, so that he was not taken by the dictator's man.
"Hey, I'm the same as you. Just quiet?" alex's voice ripped Amelia's mind off.
"Ehmm uh. ma. sorry Mr. Alex. Emm i. yes I'm done with Miss Sersi." replied Amelia shocked to hear Alex's voice earlier.
'why the hell should I see him? Nambah badmood I aja' Inner Sersi voiced. But resigned because of circumstances, if he was here he would cape answer questions for questions thrown by Amelia.
"Let's go with me Sersi, it's important" Alex said once again and immediately turned around and came out of there.
After Alex died, Amelia glared at her best friend. And demand an explanation.
"You're Mr Alex's girlfriend?" ask Amelia curious.
Sersi was at a loss to answer, as his position was unclear now. No girlfriend, no wife, no, no idea who she is.
"Hmm I'll be later yes I'm clearin, I go first. Looks like he's waiting for me outside scared too late, please! And Mel!?" melas Sersi pad Amelia.
"Yes, I'm waiting for a call from you Ser!".
"Yes yes, my drug first" said Sersi then walked a little run, so as to get out of here and approach the prospective husband of the contract.
Right after arriving in front of the Limousine car, Alex was still waiting to stand next to the car while putting his hand in his pants pocket. The style is very cool, cool and wah.
When Alex saw the woman had already come out of the coffeshop, Alex stared at her sharply. And told Sersi to enter when the woman managed to be in front of him.
"Come in the car now!" said Alex.
Sersi nodded, then got into the car followed by Alexander.
