Watch Out for Falling in Love

Fourth Person

Three days later after meeting between Andra and Erik, the young businessman invited him to meet in Bogor to see firsthand the location of his new FO candidate. At first Andra invited his co-worker Anton who was not too busy, but Aydan instead volunteered to accompany him.

"Don't you have a meeting with Mr Aditya today, Mas?" asked Andra astonished because suddenly his senior was willing to accompany.

"The meeting is postponed so tomorrow," Aydan replied while still driving the car.

"Really backed?" andra asked doubtfully. To his knowledge Aydan's work was piling up. Same with himself.

"really. I asked to be pushed back, anyway. He is a busy man. I have to follow the schedule," Aydan said again.

Although the reason makes sense, it still feels strange. Because usually for this survey business is submitted to junior architects and other staff. The seniors will only get the mature data to be processed. Even if you participate, it is also for certain situations. Andra felt something strange. Even so, he tried to ignore. This trip to Bogor is like a walk with his girlfriend. So, Andra was stupid and just having fun.

Arriving at the destination, it turns out Erik has come first. His appearance this time was much more relaxed. Only wear jeans, t-shirts and jackets. Not as formal as in the office, but still looks dapper. He came with a man who was thought to be his business partner.

"How are you, Andra?" sapanya friendly. He shook the young woman's hand as well as her superior, Aydan.

"Good, Mas. Sorry late. It was a bit jammed," he replied.

"It's okay. Was ordinary. We just go straight. So this is the land that will be built by the latest FO. What do you think? Does it fit the location?" Erik asked both of them for opinions as experts. The location itself is near the city center.

"Suitable, Mas. It's on the main road. Transportation access is also a lot," said Andra.

"Thank God. Not in vain I bought this land at a hefty price," he said with a big smile displaying his white teeth.

Andra and Aydan understand that the meaning of the hefty means a little expensive from the price around it because it comes in a good and profitable position. Even so, Erik could afford it.

While discussing with Aydan, Andra was busy aiming the camera at the area around the land. And, during the talk with Aydan, Erik's eyes kept watching Andra working around the land. Of course Aydan realized that. He can only hold back, keep serving clients as usual, and think positively. When the business was over, Erik took the two to lunch.

At the restaurant, Erik was so enthusiastic about talking to Andra. This time it is not about the design of the FO, but more personal. Like discussing food to know Andra's taste. Discussing the latest fashion styles to find out the taste of clothing is also that apparently prefers casual. It even discusses the types of men to find out the type of man the woman likes. Aydan increasingly felt something about this one client. His entire life had never had a client chatted stale until so far unless there was some other intent.

When Andra went to the toilet, Aydan immediately followed him to protest so as not to over-advent the unclean man.

"What's wrong, Mom? We're just talking. Not taboo and secret chats, is it?" pretexts.

"You really don't realize he's looking for you."

"Find out about me? What's for?" ask Andra plain.

"He seems interested in you, Andra," said Aydan worried.

"Masa, anyway? Where's possible?" Andra chuckles. He felt it was very unlikely. Remembering her is just a very ordinary woman. A person like Erik would definitely like a woman of his level. That's how Andra thought, but not Aydan's mind.

Since the two architects did not immediately return to the table, Erik grew anxious. He followed them to the toilet as well and saw the two talking intimately. Moreover, Aydan who was jealous was clutching tightly with Andra's hand to listen to her complaints.

"But you must not get too close to him, Yang. I'm going crazy" said Aydan.

"Mas, I don't live at home with him like you and Kalina. Why should I worry so? I have to be professional and serve him. Shouldn't it be? What's wrong with being friendly with him? After all, so far he is still polite," protested Andra objected.

"Just calm. Trust me, Mom," he asked.

Aydan was silent doubting Andra's loyalty. Deep in his heart he was very worried that his lover would be lured to another man who was more established and beautiful than him. He forgot that for many years Andra still loved him faithfully since college. Though it could have been when they separated, Andra tempted another man. In fact not at all.

Realizing the two architects were going back to the dining table, Erik soon returned sooner. He pretended not to know. Until they all split up and return to their respective routines.

On the way home, Erik's mind is troubled by the familiarity of Andra and his superiors. The bespectacled man looked so attentive to his subordinates. It made him wonder if there was anything special among those fellows.

"Kok every day to come home really late at night, Bang?" kalina complained because lately Aydan always came home late to the apartment.

"Busy a lot of work" Aydan replied coldly.

"If more work, add employees only," he proposed.

"It's not that easy, Kal." Aydan sat down on the sofa. He breathed tired.

"Why is it not easy? Just open the locker in the newspaper" he suggested again.

"A few months ago my office just opened a locker. Locker opening time again. The more employees the greater the expenditure."

"Yes, but it's getting a lot more help. Bang Aydan won't be coming home every night. Anyway your office should add more employees!" kalina protest disappointed while serving warm sweet tea at the table.

"Why are you so insistent? I'm not the one giving that policy. I'm just an employee anyway."

"I'm pissed off. Almost every day Bang Aydan came home at night. I'm lonely here." Kalina's lips whimper.

"If you don't like being lonely here, then go back to Palembang. There are your parents and other family. I didn't ask for your company" hardik Aydan was upset. Kalina's spoiled behavior made her even more irritated after being annoyed by Erik earlier this afternoon.

"What is Aydan doing so fiercely?" tanyanya sad. His eyes began to glaze over. Aydan feels guilty.

"You're making it harder, Kal. Please gohome! I promise I'll find Bang Irvan for you" Aydan replied.

"How many times do I have to say that I don't want to be with him anymore. I want you to be the same, Bang," Kalina protested angrily.

"Yes God. How else would I explain to you that I can't marry you either. I've loved other women" Aydan said firmly.

"Mighty fool. I know you promised to replace your cowardly brother. Point!" kalina snapped as she entered the room. He slammed the door and cried in disappointment.

Stay Aydan who is increasingly dizzy about the situation. Not yet finished the problem with Kalina as a third person, now the prospective bully relationship with Diandra even increased again. Erik's presence made him uneasy. His male instincts said that the new client was approaching Andra without being properly realized by the concerned.
