"haha, Ammar. Got you!" Rafa smiled happily when he heard the expression that had just been thrown from Ammar's mouth, he who was tired of hearing the man's curses was happy when he managed to make Ammar express his feelings even in such a way.
The atmosphere that had been filled with commotion suddenly became quiet, Ammar who just realized with what he said did not dare to look at Zulaikha. He turned his gaze in another direction so as not to make eye contact with the woman.
While Zulaikha himself was also very embarrassed, his chest continued to pound because of Ammar's words that he did not know his purpose.
"Well then, I'll go out first!" Zulaikha rushed out of the room leaving Ammar and Rafa silent in their place, Zulaikha feeling very embarrassed by what Ammar said.
"fearless! because of my brother being a release, right!" Ammar yelled in frustration while banging Rafa's arm making the man laugh wide.
Ammar's face was already flushed like a tomato with a pounding heart that continued to strengthen at this time, he really felt ashamed of Zulaikha and did not know what to say to the woman.
"How's this? what am I supposed to say?" Ammar grabbed his hair because he was frustrated with what was going on, he also hit his mouth that had been presumptuous issued sacred words that he always kept tightly in his heart.
"why do you think gini, good that he knows how you feel!" rafa's chirping makes Ammar even more agitated, wanting him to strangle the man's neck if Rafa wasn't his closest friend.
"Don't know how Zulaikha is, she's different from other women!"
"then, when do you want to hide your feelings? uh huh? will Zulaikha see you as his sister?" sambar Rafa, he was already furious to see Ammar who remained silent and did not want to reveal his heart.
Ammar let out a rough sigh, he then threw his butt over the sofa with an erratic feeling. He did not know how to deal with Zulaikha at this moment.
"o God, how is this? did I just express my feelings? but, what if Zulaikha's mother feels uncomfortable?" Ammar really felt very dizzy, the intention of the heart to want to get closer to Zulaikha, instead ended with the accidental disclosure of the contents of the heart.
"the fool is in God's hands, Mar! if he is your soul mate, God will show you the way. However, if you are not a match. Even if you reveal your heart at the right time, believe that you will never end up under bail" Rafa said, slapping Ammar's shoulder as he walked out.
"but what if my confession becomes a burden to Zulaikha's mother?"
Rafa, who was at the door, stopped his footsteps when he heard Ammar's words, he turned around and smiled at the man.
"just trust God, Mar! Allah is the One who knows everything, not the one who used to remind me of it?" said Rafa, then he continued his footsteps to go to meet Zulaikha who must have been dry waiting for their arrival.
Ammar was silent when he heard Rafa's last words, he rubbed his face violently while regretting the anxiety that had enveloped his heart.
"o God, forgive me! Forgive me who has misjudged all of Your destiny, forgive your servant who does not believe in all Your power. Forgive me, God!" Ammar speaks several times to make himself aware that everything is determined by Allah, and as a human being he only needs to try as hard as possible, and the rest let God take over.
Meanwhile, Zulaikha who was sitting in the company lobby felt really uneasy. The tiredness and hunger that he had felt had suddenly disappeared from being eaten by shame, nervousness, anxiety and all the feelings that filled his heart at this moment.
Several times Zulaikha tried not to think about Ammar's words, but his heart really could not forget all that.
"god, what should I do? should I forget what Ammar said? and act like nothing happened? or should I ask him for an explanation?" Zulaikha really does not know how to deal with Ammar at this time.
"have you seen that, the woman behind Mr Ammar? she was similar to the woman that was brought here yesterday!"
"wait! why am I curious? it has nothing to do with me!" Zulaikha shook his head to expel all the whispers of the devil that managed to incite him, he then got up and passed to the company cafeteria.
"they are similar, but not the same! if yesterday was younger and smaller, if this one was tall. His name is Zulaikha!"
Zulaikha who had taken a step away from the chair again stopped her footsteps when she heard her name being mentioned by the two women, she slightly glanced at them unconsciously by the two women.
"he said this song yes, Zulaikha will be the secretary of Mr. Ammar. It's delicious, right!" the woman added, they were unaware that the person they were divorcing was right next to them.
"cook? aah, I'm jealous. I would also like to be secretary to Mr. Ammar! nice, friendly, handsome, and rich again. Complete package anyway!" their words were endless, making Zulaikha a little angry because he thought it was not good to tell their own leaders.
"but who do you think is the woman Mr Ammar took last night? seems like I'm still in college? keep not knowing, he came out of the room Mr. Ammar with a red face. Anyway like doing something like that, my two brains are made to travel with him!"
Zulaikha who could not bear to hear all their babbling decided to rebuke him, but just turned around and was about to step up, suddenly the voice of someone had already startled him.
"do you not have a job?"
Zulaikha and the two women were shocked when they heard Rafa's voice, as well as some people who passed by the place made them silent while glancing at the man whose face looked very scary at this time.
Rafa approached the two women who had been busy rubbing their leaders, while Zulaikha just kept quiet with his mouth open because he saw the whereabouts of Rafa who had not been there since when.
"are you getting paid to tell your own leaders?" joked Rafa, the two women who were in front of him immediately lowered their heads in fear of trembling bodies.
"sorry, sir, we didn't mean to"
"don't you mean to say? uh huh? do you not realize that Ammar has been filling your stomach? instead of thanking you, you're telling me nothing about him!" rafa continued with emotions that had exploded, he really did not like to see people who were busy telling other people who had nothing to do with them.
"forgive us sir, we are guilty. We promise we won't do that again, forgive us sir. Please forgive us," they both won as they pleased and begged that the man forgive their mistakes, as Rafa could have fired them right now.
"you are not worthy"
"come on Bang, they've apologized!" suddenly Ammar showed up at that place because he heard from one of the employees that Rafa was angry at the company lobby.
