The Secretary For Life

Still Love her?

Devan and Azzura are on their way to their home. Actually Opa asked them to stay the night, but Devan refused, because tomorrow morning he had a meeting. And if you have to leave from Opa's house it will take a lot of time, because the distance of Opa's house and office is quite far.

The atmosphere seemed silent, the two people were busy with their respective thoughts.

" Hmmmm, may I ask you something?" Azzura asked in the end, he could not allow himself to continue to be curious, about the reason why Devan had not forgiven Naila until now.

" Say," Devan replied.

" It's about Naila," said Azzura, making Devan who was originally focused on the streets now turn to look at her.

" I just met him" added Azzura.

" What did he say?"

" She asked me for help, to convey her apology to you. He said he could not live quietly, before getting an apology from you," said Azzura.

" Said you always avoid her, so she asked me for help" said Azzura again.

Devan chooses silence, thoughts go back to the past. When she catches Naila's affair with her own cousin.

" May I know why you haven't forgiven her so far?" Azzura asked curiously.

" You were betrayed, right? So it seems I don't have to explain the reason" Devan replied.

" To be betrayed hurts, but what we hold grudges for. Wouldn't it just continue to hurt us. That's better in my opinion, except...." Azzura paused his sentence.

" Save for what?"

" He's still in your heart, you still love him" Azzura said, Devan was silent, making Azzura assume that Devan still loves Naila. And it made his heart hurt.

A few moments later they arrived home. Azzura rushed in, then headed for his room.

Devan who walked behind Azzura was astonished, because Azzura chose to enter his former room.

" Why did you enter this room?" Devan asked as Azzura was about to open the door.

" Papa, Mama, and Celine aren't here anymore, so I'm going back to occupying this room" Azzura replied.

" I'm sorry can I come in?" Azzura asked, because Devan was blocking his way.

" Who will allow you to go back to this room again?" Devan said, he was not willing to split the room with Azzura.

" Now go into our room!" Devan.

" No, I want to sleep in this room," Azzura replied, Devan instantly pulled Azzura's hand towards her room.

" Stop, Dev. Please don't do this, don't make me expect too much of you" Azzura said half-screaming.

" Hopefully?"

" Yes, I wish I could get your heart, even if it's impossible for me to get it. Because until now in your heart there was only Naila. So I beg you, let our relationship stay the way it used to be, so that I don't expect more from you" Azzura said as she walked into her room with tears in her eyes. Hearing all that Devan was just unmoved, he did not expect that all this time Azzura was expecting his heart.

" Zura!" Call Devan.

" Zura please open the door, I want to talk" said Devan from behind the locked door, but Azzura ignored him. She chose to drown her face in the pillow and cry. Because it never got a response from Azzura, with a move Gontai Devan chose to return to his room.

The next day, Devan was ready to go to the office. As he passed through Azzura's room, it seemed that the door was still locked. He chose to set out on his own without Azzura.

Shortly after arriving at the office, the meeting immediately began, and everything went smoothly.

" Miss Zura's Tumben isn't leaving? Is he sick?" Martin asked after the meeting.

" Why are you so concerned about Zura?" Instead of answering, Devan asked Martin that question. This astonished Martin.

" Is it wrong to ask that question?"

" Wrong."

" Where is it wrong?"

" Who did you forget? She's my wife so don't be so considerate of her" Devan said, making Martin smile.

" I know, eating it I asked like that. Because Miss Zura never gets any attention from you. So let me just pay attention to it," said Martin deliberately made Devan angry.

" You!!" Devan.

" why? There's no harm, right? After all you don't love her, your marriage is also only temporary" Martin replied.

" When you like it, admit it. Do not let go first with others, women like Miss Zara are rare, many men who want to have a partner like her. If only I hadn't remembered that you were my friend, I'd have taken him from you" Martin said before leaving Devan.

At home

Azzura blinked his eyes several times to regain consciousness. She kept crying last night, and was only able to sleep in the morning. After his consciousness recovered, he saw a clock on the wall, and it turned out to be 10:00 wib.

" Shitt, I'm late" Azzura said then hurried to the bathroom and prepared.

Finish getting ready he goes straight down.

" Miss Zura is awake?" Ask Mbak Nani when passing by him.

" Why didn't anyone wake me up?" Ask Azzura.

" I'm sorry Miss, sir forbid it. Mr. Devan also said, Miss does not need to go to the office. He said just ask for a break," Ms. Nina told him.

" Haaahhhh, you're serious?" Azzura asked, Sister Nina simply nodded.

" Yes, if you don't need to go to the office, I better go to Naina's place" said Azzura.

" What's wrong Miss?"

" No breakfast first, Non?"

" No, I'll have breakfast outside. I'm leaving, mbak."

Arriving at the cafe Naina, Azzura was immediately welcomed by Naina.

" Tumben clock is here? Not working really?"

" No, bad luck," Azzura replied.

" Why can I have bad luck?" Ask Naina.

" Can't sleep last night" Azzura replied.

" Devan made you sleepless?"

" Yes who else is," Azzura replied, making Naina laugh.

" Maha."

" Why laugh, is something funny?"

" No, yes I just pray that Devan junior is coming soon," said Naina made Azzura confused.

" What's the connection?"

" Yes, it has something to do with you staying up for sure long after Devan junior will be present," replied Naina, Azzura immediately hit Naina with her bag when she realized where her friend's mind was going.

" Stop laughing, better give me food or drink. I'm hungry, I haven't had breakfast yet" Azzura said.

" Yeahhh here just hitchhiking, free dong have a rich husband, if you eat still here," joked Naina.

" I miss my beautiful friend's cooking" said Azzura.

" Yes already daunted" said Naina, asking her employees to bring food and drinks to Azzura.

While waiting for food came Azzura and Naina chatted.

" Na, what do you think is the reason someone has not been able to forgive his former lover who betrayed him?" Ask Azzura.

" Why ask me, have you experienced it yourself?"

" I've experienced, but I've forgiven Harsa. While this person has not, even though the event has been a long time," said Azzura.

" Who is that?"

" My friends, even though they currently have their own partners. What is the reason for it? Is it because she still loves him?"

" It could be, having a partner if our heart still has an ex name, it will be difficult to accept our new partner. As good as our new partner will not be seen if there is still someone else here," said Naina while holding her chest.

" So we should try to open our hearts to others, yes even if it's difficult.Indeed they used to be in a long relationship?"

" It's been a long time she said."

" Maybe he used to love his lover too much so he was too hurt and could not be sincere" replied Naina.

" Ohh, that's it."

A moment later the food was ready, Azzura immediately devoured it. Just a few mouthfuls, suddenly there was someone who snatched his spoon.

" What the hell?"

" Share dong," said the man, who turned out to be Arga.

" Arga?"

" Today I am Arga the most handsome, best friend, who will soon be your sister-in-law" Arga replied as she took the Azzura plate.

" When are you back?" Ask Naina.

" Just this morning" replied Arga.

" And straight here?" Ask Naina.

" I'm hungry, so come straight here," Arga said casually while eating Azzura.

" So you don't have any food at home?" Ask Azzura.

" It's still raw, auntie's on leave, mama, gone to work."

" Don't you say you want to go home?" Ask Azzura.

" No."

" Mistake yourself," replied Naina.

" Ehh but don't take people's food either time, order yourself a cake," said Azzura pretending to frown. The three of them were always like this when they were gathering, joking, sometimes also fighting over food, already like brothers themselves.

" Yes yes, I save one bribe, ak..ak...ak..," said Arga while thrusting a spoonful of food into Azzura's mouth. Azzura immediately opened his mouth and received a bribe from his best friend.

" I...?" Naina whining.

" Once again, this is your own Nai, after all" said Arga.

" Ohh that's it" said Nania pretending to sulk.

Without them noticing since then there were those who kept watching them from a distance.
