"People's coffee? do you love me?" ask Aryan.
El who was attacked by the question was suddenly clumsy and threw away his gaze.
"Hmm, in a drink, deh, brother. Cold rush, youh." El tried to divert his conversation.
Aryan just smiled at El who was so misbehaved. Something he never saw. In her eyes Aryan El was a prostitute.
'Funny also he if again salting that.Gemes'. Aryan Mumbled.
An hour passed, and Aryan and El finished with their breakfast.
"Darling, today I want to go for a while" said Aryan.
'What said? the babe? why does it still feel weird.' El inside.
Seeing no response from the woman in front of him, Aryan called back. "Dear." Aryan waved his hand right in front of El's face exactly like the one who gave up on the guts test.
"Eh, Yes, Brother. Why?" ask El.
"Hhh, what are you doing? Any problem? or is it not healthy anymore?" Aryan touched El's forehead with the back of his hand.
"My heart is troubled, brother,"
"Well! how, can?" A pair of Aryan's neutrals are breaking up.
"Yes, from there on pounding. Pity my heart, brother. Like having to go the extra mile. Put it so hard."
Aryan was stunned for a moment. After that, he just laughed hard. "Haha."
El just frowned. "Apaan, anyway."
"It's okay, it's normal, really." Aryan rubbed the top of El's head.
"Okay, I'll be gone for a second. Remember, don't go anywhere. Take care of Papi, take Papi to the back garden so Papi breathes fresh air," continued Aryan.
"okay."
"After my business is done I'll be home soon." Aryan kissed the top of El's head and rubbed it gently. Then, he put his hand out. I hope El grabs it, then kisses it.
"What?" El asked when he saw Aryan's outstretched hand.
Aryan. "Ck, basic. Yes, salim is."
"Oh, i-yes." El grabbed Aryan's outstretched hand from earlier and kissed her.
No wave of hands, no message of love or more attention before leaving. El just followed what Aryan said. Aryan just shook his head to see El waltzing away after shaking hands while kissing his hands.

El's smile instantly expanded when he found the figure in his car. After Aryan left, El returned to the room to take Heryawan to the garden behind the house. However, upon his return from delivering Aryan's departure, he did not find the father. He went there looking for her. It turned out that Heryawan was already in the back garden.
Heryawan's face looks fresh when he is feeding his favorite koi fish. Heryawan smiled as his daughter's footsteps drew closer to him.
"Ih, Papi's in cariin. Not here." El showed an upset face, but it still looked sweet.
"Where's your husband?" ask Heryawan.
"Go," replied El, briefly.
"Aren't you coming?"
"But really, I'm not a woman who sticks with her husband, Pi. Let her go. I'll be back, too" replied El.
"Don't do it, El. Go with. Occasionally attend official company events, accompanied by Aryan. Aryan holds an important post at the moment. Do not let any other woman accompany him, because he is always seen alone" Heryawan quipped.
"El still needs to adapt, Pi. It is not easy to marry someone we do not love at all" explained El.
"I'm sorry Papi, El, Papi just ...."
"But not wrong, really. Every parent wants the best for their child. Just ... All too sudden, Pi, but El promise, Pi. El will learn to be a good wife to Sister." Said El while holding Heryawan's hand.
"Thank you, El. Papi knows you won't disappoint Papi." Heryawan replied with a decapitation.
Ting!
'Darling, why don't you ever answer my chat, anyway?'
A message from one of the people who is currently still in the heart room belongs to El. El just stared at his cell phone. He doesn't know what to do.
"Who, El?" ask Heryawan.
"Hmm, no, really, Pi, this is from a college friend. They asked why not enter" replied El, still displaying his sweet smile.
Not long after, El's smartphone rang again. This time it sounded a few times, indicating that there was an incoming call. El glanced back at his guard. It was a call from Zack.
He bit his lower lip to quell his nervousness. He was so nervous when Zack contacted him while he was with his very father. He did not want what happened to Heryawan yesterday repeated again.
"Hmm, Pi, El Receive a call from your friend first, yes, just a minute."
"Alright" replied Heryawan.
El running. As it runs a health protocol, El also set the distance up to several meters. Trying so I don't hear the two talk.
"Hello."
....
"Hmm, I-I'm at home. I haven't been to college for a few days."
....
"Sorry, Zack, I can't,"
....
"Well, we won't see you again, Zack. Papi and Aryan's brother are against me,"
....
"Sorry, Zack, I can't,"
....
El ended the call unilaterally.
'It turns out this hurt to stay away from loved ones by force, ' muttered El.
However, El did not want to dissolve in sadness. He was running. Back to the garden behind his house where Heryawan still at home sitting on the edge of his koi fish pond.
"Eh, is it over?" ask Heryawan. The princess was not far from him.
"Udah, Pi," replied El.
Ting!
A message back in. This time made El's eyes sparkle.While carving a smile, El was seen replying to the message.
"Pi, can El have lunch with a college friend?" asked El enthusiastically.
Heryawan frowned. "Why are you asking Papi."
El speechless.
"You permission, dong same Aryan. Now he's more worthy of your life. Not Papi."
"Did Brother allow it?" ask El, doubt it.
"Give her permission or not, follow her!" Heryawan.
'Call, call, call, no, ' El help
El looked at Aryan's number on his screen. Only, El needs to gather his guts to ask permission with Aryan.
Finally ....
"Hello, Brother,"
