"Thank you for the time." The man spoke with a smile engraved on his face, one hand shook the hand of Francisco who was now smiling back while looking at him.
"We also thank you for choosing and entrusting projects of this magnitude to our company. I hope our company cooperation can continue into the future."
"Yes, hopefully. Oh, because after this we still have a few more meetings."
"good. Thanks again for entrusting this project to our company."
The man simply nodded in response, the next second he accompanied his secretary to leave the restaurant where they made the appointment. Go leave Francisco who now only lives alone at the table with his secretary who always helps and accompanies him in meetings like today.
"After this, we just need to get back to the office, right?" Francisco glanced at his secretary who was now checking the schedule he had made and marked.
"real sir. After this we just need to get back to the office."
"All right." Francisco glanced at the clock that was coiled around his left wrist.
"Ng, sorry sir. I'd like to excuse myself to go to the toilet for a while" said the woman who became her secretary. Francisco looked towards him.
"Okay, please."
"Thank you sir." He went to the restroom at the restaurant, leaving Francisco alone.
"It's almost lunch time. It seems good that I occasionally have lunch at a restaurant like this with Aphrodite" Fransisco murmured with a smile at his watch.
"I better call him now, ask him not to cook me lunch, and ask him to come here." Francisco pulled out his cell phone looking for Aphrodite's number, was about to call her and asked the woman who was his wife to come to the restaurant where she was at this time.
...*...
Aphrodite took a long breath. I don't know how many times this afternoon he sighed. Boredom really bothered him, and right now all he was doing was sitting on the couch staring at the television screen showing a show that was as boring as he felt. It has been about a week since Francisco entered and returned to work in the office after spending a long time for his honeymoon.
"I'm really bored" he muttered softly as he grabbed the remote control on the table. Move the television channel that is now being watched on another channel. Hoping to find an event that is able to make his sense of boredom disappear. But there was no really interesting television show that day.
Aphrodite pressed the red button on the remote control she was holding, turning off the previously lit television.
"There's really no fun show." Aphrodite leaned her head back, silent as she looked at the ceiling of her now deserted apartment's central room.
His attenuation switched, he grabbed his phone. Open a photo gallery on his phone and look at every photo of his there. He looked at one by one photos of himself with Jenia while they were still spending time together in the office.
"I wish I could go back to work so I could take all this boredom out" he said.
"Oh, jeez. It's almost lunch time. I have to cook and prepare lunch for Frans."
Aphrodite got up from her seat, walked over to the kitchen to prepare all the ingredients for her to cook lunch for Francisco.
Arriving at the kitchen room Aphrodite was ready to open the refrigerator door, but had not yet opened the refrigerator door. His phone had already rang to make his attention switch in an instant, Aphrodite reached for her phone to find the Francisco number listed on her phone screen which now shows the phone call screen.
"Hello?" Aphrodite's greeting was as soon as her phone connection was connected to Francisco across the street.
"Hi honey... What are you doing now?"
"I'm getting ready to cook you a lunch that I'm gonna take you to your office before you call me."
"It's a coincidence."
"I called because I wanted to take you to lunch together."
"Lunch?"
"Yes. At the restaurant, I'll send you the address. So for today you don't have to cook lunch, you get ready and come to the address I sent you. We'll have lunch together."
"Now?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"But... What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just want to spend lunch time with you. That's it, after all, we haven't eaten outside in a long time, have we?"
"Yes, you're right. We rarely eat out" murmured Aphrodite.
"I want to have lunch outside with you."
"alright. I agree, I'll be ready after that leave there soon."
"OKAY. I'll send you the address."
"Yes. See you there."
"See you. Be beautiful, I'm waiting for you."
"All right."
Aphrodite disconnected her phone unilaterally, after which she left the kitchen room to prepare for lunch with Francisco, who was waiting for her.
...*...
Fransisco smiled at his phone, he had just finished talking to Aphrodite on the phone and the woman who was his wife agreed to have lunch with him.
Francisco immediately sent Aphrodite the address of the restaurant she was in, so that she could get to her place as soon as possible.
"Now I just have to wait for him to come" he muttered, re-inserting his phone into the pocket he was wearing. Francisco's attention was immediately seized once he found the noise, he turned to the direction of the sound. And there he saw his secretary who was being angered by a female visitor.
Francisco hurried to approach them to help break up the commotion.
"I'm sorry you said?! Apologizing is not enough!" Strangled the woman to her secretary who was now bowed with a gloomy face.
The secretary was silent. Everyone stared at those who were now in the spotlight of the entire restaurant. The secretary just accidentally spilled a drink that was brought by the waiter who was walking towards the woman's clothes. And now he's going berserk because his clothes got dirty.
"Sorry what is this?" Francisco arrived there confiscating his second attention.
"P-sir director.." muttered his secretary with a surprised look.
"Do you know him?" Ask the woman and appoint her secretary.
"Yes. He's my secretary," he said.
