Silent, the atmosphere is so quiet. Even what was heard was only the sound of a fork and knife on the plate.
The bouquet that Sofyan had brought was simply placed on the table, without him saying that it was for Maya. It feels like Sofyan is embarrassed, embarrassed because it's weird.
Both of them looked awkward and awkward to say. Maya also often met Sofyan if there is a meeting with Rizky, because she is only a secretary and it also only discusses work issues.
They often cross paths, and Maya always says hello. But Sofyan himself only answered his greeting with a nod of his head. Maybe if you remember, just 'yes', the word that was released from the lips of the boss's in-laws.
"Sorry before, May. Did you come here because Rizky threatened you?" guess Sofyan. His words brushed off all the silence between the two.
Maya who had been looking down then raised her face, but only looked at Sofyan's face at a glance because she was embarrassed. "No, Pa," he answered, shaking his head.
"If it were, to be honest, I wouldn't be angry." Sofyan looks in disbelief, especially Maya is Rizky's subordinate. It would be easy if Rizky threatened his employees.
"No, Mr. Rizky just asked me to have dinner with a man. But the problem is that he himself did not say that the man was the Father" Maya replied slowly.
Despite the debate between her and Rizky, Maya does not consider Rizky to be threatening her at all. Because he's just asking for dinner, right? Not asking her to marry?
It's just that the way Rizky talks impressed emotions, and it was enough to scare him until he finally obeyed.
"Oh, you're disappointed to know I'm the man?" Sofyan guessed again, the feeling was really bad.
Maya shook her head quickly. This time he looked at Sofyan's face out of curiosity, afraid that the man might get angry. He remembered Rizky saying that he should be nice to the man. "No, but I'm so sorry, sir. I don't want to be an actor."
Sofyan frowned in surprise. "Elekor? Meaning how?"
"Father already has a wife. Why look for a woman to date? If Miss Diana knows how, sir? I could have been run over" Maya said with a scared face.
"Do you know I'm a widower?" Sofyan returned.
Even though the rumors of Diana cheating had a scene. Not only in his office, but Rizky's office, Thunder and even Aji's. And the one who spread the rumor is none other than his own daughter-in-law, Rizky.
Sofyan himself actually closed the matter tightly, but somehow Rizky's lemes mouth actually revealed it.
The man was very satisfied if anyone sneered at Diana.
"Young? Indeed yes? Then Mr and Miss Diana are divorced?"
Looks like Maya's the only person who doesn't know in Rizky's office. Where has he been all this time? Women, why not listen to gossip? Bizarrely.
"Yes, we're officially divorced. Even my ex is married to Aji."
"Aji? Mr Aji Wijaya?"
Sofyan nodded.
"Oh pantes, yesterday-yesterday I had a chance to see them to the supermarket together, sir. I thought ... yesterday I just mislooked."
Sofyan remained silent. His heart felt throbbing pain. He often even accidentally saw their affection in public places, but still again his heart hurt.
"I'm sorry, sir." Maya looks at Sofyan's sad face. Seen the man was now smiling faintly and nodding small.
"Eemm .. so the intention of you asking the date is all looking for a mate too? You want to get married again?" maya's guess is on target.
Sofyan chuckled, he felt ashamed of himself. Shame that maybe Maya will assume she's a keladi elder. "His intention is like that. And Rizky herself once said she wanted to find me a mate."
"Ah but .. sorry, sir. I can't be your wife."
Sofyan hasn't even spoken that sentence. And even though he himself had indeed discouraged the intention for fear of rejection. Uh, but it's been totally rejected.
"I don't understand, I know for sure you won't want to be with grandparents like me. I understand that, May." Sofyan smiled faintly and took a sip of his mango juice.
"The reason is not because of my grandparents. You look young, you."
Whether it's honest or a lie. Although Sofyan himself is sure if Maya lied—but it is undeniable that at this time his heart is happy, even his cheeks are red.
"If you want to refuse, just refuse, May. Do not wear seducing. I'm misunderstanding later." Sofyan chuckles.
"But I am honest, sir. The reason I'm not is that."
Sofyan looked into Maya's eyes deeply, indeed from her eyes she looked honest. "Keep what?"
"I still have a debt with my Aunt in the village, she won't agree I'm married before paying the debt, sir."
"Debit?" Sofyan's eye brows were linked. "What is money?"
I don't know why they're so familiar, not as awkward as before. Maybe it's because there's something that's currently being discussed.
"Actually the debt is not money. I bought it with money."
"meaning?" Sofyan tangent, Maya speech circling. But honestly he was curious.
"Tante asked me to buy him a house, sir. And now that I'm saving, that's not enough money. Only half the price of the house," explained Maya.
"Kok he asked for a house? Where is her husband? Is she a widow?"
Maya shakes. "Om I exist, he also has a clothing store. But now that his shop is closed because he often has leg pain, he is also not strong for long standing."
"Oh, so short of the cost to buy a house? But why ask him to be with you, May? You're a woman, you have parents too. A child should be able to make his parents happy first. Just someone else," said Sofyan.
The figure of a father suddenly appeared on him. Even though he had felt if his soul returned to being young, when for the first time dating a girl.
"My parents are dead, sir. Since I was 7 years old. Since then I have lived with Om and Aunt. They were the ones who paid me for school until I became a scholar. I never asked for anything myself, even every money I gave him he always refused. But ... different from Aunt ...."
Sofyan rounded his eyes when he saw a sudden tear that had leaped down the cheeks of the girl, he immediately pulled out a piece of tissue and gave it to her.
Maya rubbed her cheeks slowly, for fear that her makeup would wear off. Two hours he spent grooming and performing perfectly like that, it would be a pity if it ran out just from crying.
"Why meet?" Actually Sofyan could not bear to see the girl crying, but he seemed very curious about the unfinished story.
