Women At the End of the Dusk

Offers to Become Secretary

...Happy Reading's...

The sun has returned to its contest by leaving behind such a beautiful twilight a moment ago. Breezy night breeze stroked the soft Azalia leather that was not covered in a jacket.

The atmosphere of Ancol is still quite crowded, the waves are calm enough to reconcile the soul who is in a state of turmoil, including Azalia. He did not want to leave there and Alham faithfully accompanied.

They decided to go to Ancol after a day of walking like a couple who just dated. Alham kept staring at the beautiful face of his wife. Round eyes, sharp nose that is not too high, and thin lips, make Alham very comfortable staring for long.

His hands stretched out to repair Azalia's hair that was being played by the wind. "Have you enjoyed the twilight?" ask Alham.

"Actually not. But, how else, he's gone just so the moon and stars can come" Azalia replied.

"We can come here again sometime. Or, later I will take you to a place where you can enjoy two atmosphere at once. Dusk and also the city of Jakarta," said Alham.

"really? Where is that?" Azalia looked enthusiastic, even unconsciously she clapped once. Like a kid who gets interesting information.

"It's not a surprise that I'll tell you."

Alham turned to the back of Azalia and hugged the woman from behind. He propped up his chin on Azalia's right shoulder while looking forward. Meanwhile, Azalia was no longer surprised by the behavior of Alham who always hugged from behind because she also felt comfort in it.

"Thank you, yes," said Alham.

"For?"

"Second chance you've given. If I make a mistake later, you can get angry and hit me. But, don't even think of leaving me. You are my world now, Azalia" Alham said.

Azalia turned to the side, then smiled and rubbed the back of her husband's hand on his stomach. "As long as I can forgive, why not? I was too. If I make a mistake, please don't flirt or leave without listening to my explanation. Reprimand me, fix me so as not to be wrong in the future," said Azalia.

"I will do my best for you. I love you" at the end of the sentence, but got no reply.

"No need to answer, I'll keep waiting for you." Alham's words made Azalia's heart uneasy. "We'll find a seat first, yeah. There's something I want to talk to you, I'm also sore to stand still," added Alham.

Azalia nodded and followed where her husband would take her. 'I'm sorry. If you can open your heart to new people, why can't I? I will try, hopefully when I start loving you, your love is still intact for me, Azalia.

...***...

"Here we find a seat or what, anyway?" senile Azalia

It has been a few minutes walking, but Alham has not yet invited him to sit when he has passed the empty seat many times. "We just get out of here, okay? I hungry. You are also short clothes, you will catch wind if later on the beach this night," said Alham while staring at Azalia pleading.

The woman with the brown netra could only resign and nod. 'The coldness in the warehouse alone I can pass. Especially in a place I like. But, I better listen to what he just said," he murmured inwardly.

...***...

Right now, they are in the car. Passing the bright streets because of the many lights of the city.

"Anything" Azalia answered.

"Toggle again? Hem?" Alham looked at.

"No. I'll just come with you." Azalia stared at the tall buildings they passed by.

"alright. But, smile, dong. Time does not sulk, his face is so sour." Azalia smiled, but only glimpsed and looked back outside.

After a few minutes of driving, they finally arrived at one of the five-star restaurants called Tina's Restourant. They were greeted by the waiter and ordered food.

"Now can it be?"

"Can what?" The wife's question sounded quite ambiguous to Alham.

"What do you want to say?"

"My wife's wife is snuggling again because of that. Sorry, yes. I don't want to make you curious, I'm just hungry. You know for yourself I only ate lunch earlier," said Alham. "So, in the office I'm looking for a secretary. I want to take it to you. I want you to be my secretary. You want to?" continued.

"But I have a job too. My store later who's managing?"

"There, right, are two of your friends. You just trust them. You can still manage it, really."

"You sure nawarin me? I can accept it because that's what I want. But now his position is different. I already have my own family, I have a husband that I have to take care of from waking to sleeping again.How would it be if I became a career woman? I could have lost it if I couldn't divide the time. Thanks for the offer, I suggest you find someone else. There are many people out there looking for work."

Azalia's answer moved Alham. She felt like Azalia was thinking about herself. Even more moved was Azalia thinking more of others who needed more. He took his wife by the hand, and said, "I am more amazed and in love with you. I'm really lucky to have you. Thank you and if that's what you want, I won't force it." He kissed the back of Azalia's hand.

Meanwhile, Azalia who was treated like that became blushed, especially she became the center of attention of some people and also employees. He did not realize that the restaurant belonged to his mother-in-law.
