When That Sense Is Present

49. The guy at Hanum's party

Antyka was still silent in her sitting. While Alif Do not know what to do, While the atmosphere in the car is silent . Alif knew Antyka was very offended. It must hurt to be accused of not being. All of this is the result of Alif's mistake when making a decision. And it's true Mike said, he's very sorry about it now.

"I'll take you to the office. Don't leave before your heart calms down" Alif said, glancing at Antyka. "Don't take people's hearts too hard. They don't know the truth" Alif said.

"Don't take heart...? I have ears and feelings. All because Mr. Alif showed up. They didn't care whose daughter Caya was"

"Sorry..."

"Maybe I should go now" Antyka said desperately

Alif glanced at Antyka. For a moment his feelings were filled with anger when he heard the words of Antyka who wanted to leave.

"That problem is to be dealt with and solved, Antyka. Not running away" snorted Alif annoyed.

"Why....? Only Mr Alif can disappear? I'll try it too. What it's like to disappear"

"Antysk!!" Alif suddenly braked his car. Both were shaken. Lucky deserted streets.

"Can't control your emotions? mr. Alif want us to be fucked?"

"Don't talk any more, Antyka. I'll finish and clear your name"

Alif drove Antyka to the front of the office. Then the man went inside .

" I can't let Mr. Alif into my office" Antyka stopped his steps when he knew Alif was following him.

"I want to be alone" Alif said

"I'm busy not accepting guests on personal matters"

"We're talking business" Alif said casually.

Antyka looked at Alif lazily and entered his room. Once he arrived, several officers had invited him to discuss their project project. Alif sat quietly on the sofa that is usually provided for guests. He noticed Antyka's interaction with several employees for a while.

"Not to the hospital?" tanya Antyka began to be caught off guard by the presence of Alif in her room. The employee was finished and left Antyka's room.

"I got a Shift during the day' Alif said then stood near Antyka's desk and sat down at the end of the table. " Aty..., you look different at work, Antyku used to be difficult to wake up, has turned into more mature and more attractive. I'm getting more and more comfortable being here"

"Certainly changed, I'm a single mother who has a huge responsibility. No longer the wife of the heir to the Pradipta corp. Mr. Alif is also very changed now"

"What did I change Anty like?" Alif teases Antyka "Am I getting handsome now? like hope in Suratmi?"

"Sir Alif is now so flirtatious, likes to spread charm, snobs talk to young mothers" said Antyka straightforwardly.he remembered earlier Alif was so friendly with young mothers who were there. "It's always worth being excited if you want to take Caya to school"

"Whaat?" Alif was surprised by Atyka's remark.The man did not think Antyka could think so.But then Alif smiled, showing off his dimples. His good looks increased to make the swish swish in Antyka's heart rise again.

"You're jealous, aren't you Antyka?. Let's just confess. Are you afraid I'm turning away? I didn't go near them Anty, but you know for yourself right, what kind of attraction is a dr. Alif ?"

"Narsis" said Antyka turned her face slightly, then stepped away leaving Alif in her office room.

"Where are you going Anty?" ask Alif while following Antyka.

"You're looking for a new papa for Caya" Antyka said without filtering her speech. While walking. The confusion of the two became the center of attention of some employees who were passing in the area they passed

"Don't be like, Anty" Alif is still trying to line up Antyka's steps.

Antyka got into her car and locked it fast before Alif came in. Alif just keeps knocking on Antyka's car door.

"Open the door, Anty. Where are you going?" still knocking on Antyka's car glass.

Antyka ignored Alif's words. It is precisely Antyka started his car and left Alif who was still upset with Antyka's words.

Alif immediately headed for the main road, intercepting the taxi that appeared. Lucky when Alif reached the road, there was an empty taxi passing by.

"Sir, please follow the car in front of "alif's orders to the taxi driver.

"Which is red?"

"Let's not lose track"

"Ready sir"

" Good ...later I give you tips" persuaded Alif to make the taxi driver more enthusiastic.

Their cars are chasing each other. In Antyka's heart, he actually wanted to laugh.Taxi ride Alif is still following his car. Antyka knew Alif was a very jealous type of person.

Antyka stopped her car in front of her late father's restaurant. He looked at the taxi that stopped behind him. With a mocking smile Antyka waved her hand at Alif. Alif smiled wryly and realized his ridiculousness. Antyka just went to check out the restaurant.

"Road again sir" Alif ordered the taxi driver

"It's so pretty sir, it's not in the samperin" chirped the cab driver.

"Don't be like that, she's my wife.I just make sure she gets to her destination safely" Alif told a lie. The taxi driver nodded his head

"Where are you now, sir?"

"Just go there and stop at the hospital"

"Well..., heart sport yes, sir. If you have a beautiful wife, you should check up often to the hospital" the taxi driver joked with a satirical tone.

"I'm a doctor there, not for medication''

"Oh.., sorry sir"

"Hmmm, go..!" Alif murmured while staring at the streets that had started to crowded.

"Who's the flower of San?" antyka asked her employees when she found a flowerbed on her desk.

"There's the sender's name, ma'am"

Antyka reads the paper tucked between the flower arrangements. Antyka frowned and then smiled.

"New fans Ma'am?" Sandra teased her smiling boss.

"From Daddy Caya.."

"Mother looks happy to accept it" Sandra teased again.

Antyka glanced at Sandra, groping her heart. It was as clear as it looked the taste that was in his heart. To be honest, just tucked away in happiness. Antyka still refused.

"Bu Anty, I almost forgot. There's an invitation from your college friend, this" Sandra offered a wedding invitation card from Antyka's friend.

"Hanum is finally married to Dave" Antyka murmured as she read an invitation from her college friend.

"It looks like your friend's getting a stranger"

"Iya San, her future husband is Russian. But they've been dating for a long time"

"Mom is invited with a partner.' said Susan.

"Just calm down I can take Luthfi or Zeindra"

"Why not just with Daddy, Mom?"

"Already.., back to work there. Don't forget to check before sending" Antyka switched their conversation.

"Yes ma'am, excuse me"

**

"Tumben you came to the office, brother?"

" So out of the house nengok mama, continue to miss the same luthfi so yes, here. Luthfi's busy?"

"Sister needs to meet someone important soon. What's up?"

"Last night Luthfi's gonna take me?" Antika sits next to Luthfi who is busy with her laptop screen.

" What time is it?"

"Seven"

Kator Luthfi has been knocked and entered Luthfi employees.

"Sir Luthfi the car is ready''

"Oh yeah for a second" Luthfi cleared the file he was going to bring. " Aty, brother must go" Luthfi stood with the file he was about to bring. The man looks troubled.

"Anty help me, brother. Luthfi's brother should have had a secretary or assistant who accompanied his sister to meet clients'' Antyka asked for a bag that Luthfi would carry.

"Usually Karin helped sister. But now she would rather accompany her mother. You really want to come with brother?"

"Hmm Anty free, brother. Anty's business is done. Caya's also at Karin's house"

"If your sister's project is a success today, take you tonight" Luthfi said as they walked towards the parking lot.

"Promise yes, I have a wedding invitation. Shame to go alone" Antyka closed the car and installed a seatbelt.

Antyka follows Luthfi into a luxury hotel. In a designated room they enter.

"With Mr Andrean Luthfi Al Habsy?" A middle-aged man welcomed their arrival.

"Yes my own"

" Let's go in, Mr. Agra is waiting"

Entering the room of a man called Mr. Agra was not what Luthfi had imagined. It turns out Agra was young probably the same age as Ibra. He was also seen working with an assistant nearby

"I'm Andrean Luthfi Al Habsy" Luthfi thrust out his hand.

"Agra Dewangga, and this?" Agra pointed at Antyka with a sharp look

"I'm Antyka" Antyka said as she thrust her hand.

"Please sit down" Agra was still observing the two guests who were in front of him. The guy looks haughty.

"Let's start"

"Well, we'll show you a collection that Mr. Agra might like. These are some of our exclusive collections with the most quality materials. We only make three to five in a month. The process also requires thoroughness and patience" explained Luthfi explained the carving prodak he was offering. Agra seems very interested. He stared at Luthfi's laptop screen.

"This is a photo of the making process?" show Agra enthusiastic and amazed.

"That's fine, skillful handmade originals, the shape follows the already existing groove, therefore none of them are the same shape"

"For the beginning I will make a contract for one year with certain terms and conditions"

" Ah thank you, when can we meet again to discuss the details of our cooperation?"

"One Week from now. We'll call Mr. Luthfi again"

"I wait for the good news" After saying goodbye they say goodbye.

Agra immediately stepped away followed by his two employees.

"We go straight home, brother?" ask Antyka while tidying up Lutfi's files

"You eat first, I'm hungry"

"Have you eaten yet at this hour? if Karin knows Luthfi's brother must be angry"

"So hastened" replied Luthfi without wanting to protest again. "Tomorrow you don't have to come"

"Who wants to come, Anty also has a lot of work. Will you be sending Anty?" unfortunately, her sister did not answer.

"What do you want to eat?" luthfi asked while sitting in a chair.

"Whatever" Ketus Antyka. He felt neglected by his brother. Luthfi smiled seeing her sister pout but still followed her.

"you're not ashamed to walk with an old man to your friend's wedding?" Luthfi already knew why her sister was pouting.

"So, they will think my papa Luthfi brother, we are too similar" Antyka said with a happy expression.

"You don't want to find Ibra's replacement?" luthfi asked seriously while feeding food into her mouth. Antyka just kept quiet while stirring the drink. "Women like you aren't good too long by themselves, Anty. I'm actually really worried"

"I'm fine"

"Your failed marriage is a sign that you and Ibra are not a match. I see you are not too sad when you fail to get married. You don't have any more feelings, do you, Ibra?. You're just embarrassed not to get married but not hurt"

Antyka is still silent not to reply to sister ya's words. It just allows in the heart.

"Alif didn't ask you to refer?" Luthfi stopped his bribe waiting for an answer from Antyka.

"I'm still afraid of being disappointed again" Antyka replied. Then he turned his face unwilling to meet with Luthfi. Antyka did not want Luthfi to know that she still harbored deep feelings for Alif.

"You know what made Alif leave you all this time?" Antyka shook her head. " Ask Alif. I know your relationship with Alif's family is better''

***

Finally after a long negotiation, Zeindra was the one who drove Antyka to the wedding place of her best friend, Hanum. One thing made Antyka choose Zeindra as the last option was because her nephew was less able to take care of her. Zeind would rather go to see his classmate who happened to be at this reception. Antyka sat alone while enjoying the dishes available.

Antyka was playing her phone while someone was sitting next to her. The scent of masculine perfume that was approaching her nose made Antyka turn her head. A well-built man with the same sharp eyes was watching him.

"You....?" the man was half surprised to look at Antyka.

Antyka nodded respectfully, recognizing the man beside her was Agra Dewangga whom she had met with her brother earlier this afternoon.

"Yourself..?" agra asked briefly, while her gaze was pointing to the guarantee.

"No I came with a brother" Antyka said half-bumblingly facing the flat man who was very irritating to talk.

"You know the bride?" Agra asked back. But the attitude and the mimicry remain the same, flat.

"I'm a friend of Hanum's" Antyka said briefly. It seems very uncomfortable to be close to Agra who is too cold. Antyka searches for the whereabouts of Zeindra who has left her alone for too long.

Antyka was about to stand up, but Agra's voice returned to make her sit back.

"I didn't grow up here, How can I meet a bride?"

"Master wants to congratulate you?"

"Maybe like that, I want Dave to know that I'm coming"

"Lord must come in line to greet the bride, like that" Antyka pointed at the queue of guests who wanted to congratulate her.

"I don't like to jostle, Why are there so many people here" Agra said.

Hearing that, Antyka laughed funnyly. Agra is not a big guy here. For Indonesians weddings attended by thousands of guests are very normal.

Agra gasped to see Antyka laughing. He did not expect the woman beside him to laugh like that. What's wrong, but Agra loves it when Antyka flaunts her white teeth. Her beautiful aura shone and grew even more adorable.

"Sorry..." Antyka noticed as Agra kept looking at her sharply. The moment Antyka stopped laughing Agra immediately turned her face away. "Sorry no offense, I didn't mean to.." Antyka's speech was cut off.

"You must accompany me in line"

"But..."

"Should.." Agra clasped Antyka's arm to come in line with her.

Antyka tried to let go but clutched

agra's hands are very strong. Antyka also gave up, Zeindra also has not appeared again there is no harm in congratulating Agra.

"Hanum is safe" Antyka greeted Hanum, while Agra was congratulating Dave

"Thank you, who did you come with, Anty?"

" Same Zeind. But usually Zeind is looking for prey" said Antyka while laughing again. Suddenly Agra returned to hold Antyka's hand to finish the conversation.

Antyka asks Agra to let go of her hand after reaching their table again.

"You should not laugh too often" said Agra as he sat back down. Agra's words made Antyka feel puffed up. The cold man suddenly arranged his behavior. Antyka was very upset with him. If only Luthfi's brother was not working with him, it would be like Antyka berated him.

"Yes sorry.." Agra was very happy with Antyka's obedient attitude, until the cold man smiled faintly at Antyka's apology.
