The Handsome Savior of my Life

Chapters 12. Real reason

This morning, Shakira had breakfast accompanied by Mama Seila. Benjamin was already on his way to the office.

"So, do you think you can ask Benjamin for permission to accompany you today?"

"Hmmm if so early Kira think can not ma, we have a meeting with the financial team for the problem of project A. I guess after lunch hour if such as mama does not mind, Kira can accompany. What about mama?"shakira replied as she bribed a bribe into her mouth.

"Well, later after lunch Mama will pick you up" said Mama Sheila.

"In fact Kira will accompany Mama where the hell if you can know?" ask her to Mama Seila.

"Look at Kira later" replied Mama Seila as she gave a smile.

15 Minutes later Shakira was on her way to the office. Busy thinking about the attitude change that happened with Mama Seila. During some time living here, very rarely he took time to greet him. In fact, not even smile if they occasionally meet accidentally. And this morning, suddenly there was no rain, no wind, came for breakfast. Then the strange again asked to accompany him out of nowhere. Shakira being was was afraid as the saying goes there are shrimp behind the stone.

Nola, who had been focusing on driving, felt Shakira's attitude change. Dare not ask what he has in mind. But Nola understood very well the possibility that hit Shakira made him upset this early. Must be in touch with the Big Lady.

Arriving at the office, as usual Shakira got down in the lobby and walked towards the elevator. It was unexpected that he met Benjamin. His heart rate was beating erratically. The worry and excitement that ensued vanished just like that seeing a handsome, dashing man wearing a grey suit, a clean white shirt with the top buttons open without the use of a tie. Benjamin's after-shave fragrance was very seductive of her feminine side.

Benjamin, who saw Shakira coming, smiled. Somehow his feelings always feel happy to see Shakira, even though only see her from afar. The fluttering of her hair that always unravels, scented with fruit-flavored hair. Although she knows that everyone knows her in a clumsy style never responds to the temptations and seductions of any woman, meeting Shakira makes her feel different.

"Good morning" said the two together and the atmosphere became awkward.

Then enter the CEO elevator.

"My old mama's word, if 2 people say something at the same time means they are one way", said Shakira smilingly reminiscing about the words of her mother.

"That means we should dong ya.", Benjamin answered while menoel Shakira cheeks at a glance.

Whose cheeks felt in the toelpun immediately reddish and reply to pinch Benjamin's arm but did not manage to reply because Benjamin's arm was very muscular "Ni what a brick really hard bangettttt!!!!", sahut Shakira's.

Ting....

The elevator door opened, Maria and Nola were already standing up to greet the Master and Miss, immediately looking away at the pinch-pinch scene in front of them directly.

Shakira immediately fled to her room.

Benjamin instantly changed his usual flat expression and said, "Why don't you see anything!"

Both of them immediately nodded their heads in understanding.

When it was time for lunch, Shakira was restless. Nola who felt his anxiety also interrupted "Quiet, nothing will happen later. I'm sure the big lady isn't that bad", smiling at Shakira.

Hearing Nola's words, Shakira smiled. All right, I'll get ready and wait for him in the lobby. You're going with me, aren't you Nola?" the one being asked nodded his head.

When Shakira and Nola arrived at the lobby, at the same time a mercedez benz car stopped not far from them. The passenger glass was lowered, Mama Seila's face smiled to see it.

Shakira immediately opened the passenger door and sat next to Mama Seila, while Nola sat next to Mama Seila's assistant who was in charge of carrying the vehicle.

"Sorry Mama has to pick up Shakira, so it's a hassle" Shakira opens a conversation with the big lady.

"Don't think about it, Mama's not busy either".

A notification of incoming messages on Shakira's phone. Tringg....

"Enjoy your lunch with Mama 😀. Benji", Shakira smiles at reading it.

The car driven by Andi, Mama Seila's assistant also entered the courtyard of one of the largest malls in the downtown area. Andi got out of the driver's seat and opened Mama Seila's door, while Nola opened Shakira's door. They head to one of the Japanese restaurants and choose a VIP room to be more free to talk.

In the VIP room there are only Mama Seila and Shakira, while Nola and Andi are always ready to stand guard outside if needed.

"Sorry Kira, Mama needs to tell you something and I think it's the right time".

"Benjamin has explained everything to mama, that you are not the lover of my son, even you two have no special relationship, only limited to superiors and subordinates. All of this was Benjamin's only reason for canceling his engagement plans with Lena. Even mom knows the reason behind why you can meet".

Shakira lowered her head, remembering the incident on the bridge that night, she felt ashamed.

"Then, if you know it, what does the Lady want from me?" Shakira also replied with formality even though the tone of the voice that came out vibrated.

Mama Seila smiled faintly at the question.

"Have you ever asked Benjamin why he saved you and could be on that bridge?"

"Here is the Madam, but the Madam's son does not want to tell me the reason, and even to this day I do not know the reason behind all the treatment he gave me" Seila replied.

"All right, I'll tell you. I hope you won't be surprised to hear that".

Shakira increasingly became curious, because all this time she could not be alone with Benjamin at leisure. Even to discuss work issues must be represented by Maria.

Mama Seila started telling me "5 years ago, in the same place, Benjamin's lover jumped off the bridge.." a moment of silence.

Hearing the explanation from Mama Seila made Shakira shock instead of playing. Given how that night was Benjamin's way of saving her, Benjamin's gaze and embrace were upon her....

"Benjamin felt guilty for the incident, Kira. Years had passed, he was still grieving. Even every night after coming home from work, he would cross that bridge just to remember him. His name is Tiara, the son of our best friend in the Netherlands, they have been dating since they were still in High School. Can you imagine, no, how did Benjamin break his heart back then?"

Why did Tiara decide to end her life Madam? did they fight or what?"

Mama Seila long silent decided to tell a more detailed story or enough. Food orders came. While enjoying lunch, Mama Seila decided to tell her more.

"Tiara experienced an unpleasant incident while on vacation with her friends to Island K. One of Tiara's best friends, apparently framing her for envy of Tiara and Benjamin's relationship", Mama Seila's eyes seemed to dim once telling Tiara's story.

"Thank you how, ma'am? Did it hurt him?"

While taking a deep breath Mama Seila continued "Tiara was trapped on the last night of the island, at the drink was given Blue Wizard or Potenzol and that night Tiara suffered physical abuse that resulted in an extramarital pregnancy until in the end, Tiara who could not live decided to end her life".

Shakira was shocked to hear Mama Seila's words, unable to say anything.

Oh Benji.I don't think this happened to you Inner Shakira while continuing to play her food.

"I guess, Mama invited you to accompany her today out of curiosity how you felt about her. I don't want to force you to like Benjamin" Mama Seila said.

Shakira was asked like that. "Mrs..if I have that feeling, am I allowed? Benjamin is far from me. She was a very powerful figure, no matter what I was, I was just an orphan saved by the Madam's child", bowing my head.

Mama Seila also touched Shakira's hands "You know Kira, I liked you at the beginning of our meeting. You are a brave woman, not oppressed. And to me, to you I see the figure of someone I've longed for".

Shakira also smiled with relief at all the words spoken by Mama Seila, all her worries were gone.

"Then, what does the lady want me to do?"

"I just want whatever happens, whatever you know, to stay with Benjamin. Thanks to you, I can see her smile again", replied Mama Seila as she hugged Shakira, and herself returned Mama Seila's embrace tightly.

Lunch was full of happiness. Unexpectedly, everything went as he feared.
