THE REASON

The voice of a woman asking made Ryan's body stiffen. He knew very well who was talking behind his back. The man gulped nervously, then slowly looked away.

"Uh, honey... why didn't you tell me you wanted to come?" Ryan asked grinning.

"Why should I say? Why are you so nervous?" Malika tried to find out the reason behind the change in her lover's attitude.

"You must be planning something with Rendra, right?" Malika added with a suspicious look.

Of course it took Ryan by surprise. Apparently women are born with very sharp intuition.

"I-I... no, really. Who said that?" Ryan said he didn't want to be honest. It could be that later problems will arise for Rendra if he reveals the truth.

Malika glared at her lover.

"Oh, is that so? Ok. Apparently I came at the wrong time." Malika left Rendra's room with a disappointed expression.

His intention was to surprise Ryan by going to the man secretly, in fact he was disappointed.

Today she is in a bad mood. Feeling easily offended and sad. It may also be due to the effect of guests who regularly come every month, which makes the hormone estrogen in the woman's body fluctuate.

Meanwhile, Ryan is confused because his lover left him just like that.

"Ah, shit! Why is it like this." cursed Ryan. He then chased Malika.

"Hey, where are you going, you?" Rendra laughed out loud seeing the couple's misunderstanding. It's an attitude that shouldn't be imitated.

His laughter then stopped and was replaced with a beautiful smile etched on his face. He was imagining how Aleeta's attitude would be if they had become lovers?

Aleeta and Ryan would definitely make the most perfect couple. The woman is very beautiful and the man is also very charming. They are like a couple from heaven.

Rendra will try to always please and make Aleeta happy.

"Good morning, dear," said Rendra, starting his activities in the office. Every day the man would start the day by greeting his lover Aleeta. After arriving at the office, the man would immediately call his girlfriend.

"Good morning too, honey. Are we busy today?" asked Aleeta in a soft voice. The woman always asks her lover's schedule. If possible, they would spend more time alone together.

"Hm, unfortunately I'm a little busy today, so I won't be able to have lunch with you. Sorry." Rendra regretted his busy life today. Ah, even though he wants to always be with Aleeta, but unfortunately the universe doesn't seem to approve of him. If not Aleeta, then she is busy.

"Don't be sad, honey. I'm not busy today. So I'll come over to your office and we can have lunch and spend some time together. How about it?" Aleeta gave a very brilliant suggestion. Makes Rendra's face brighten up instantly.

"Of course I will," said Rendra with joy.

However, not with Ryan. The man was annoyed that he had to wait so long for Rendra to finish talking to his girlfriend. He waited almost an hour just for an autograph from his boss.

Ah, his imagination has even gone that far, even though Aleeta has not yet given an answer to her feelings.

Rendra then chuckles in annoyance at the harsh reality.

"Go there, you guys don't go out here," shouted Rendra displeased to the couple.

"Eh, wait! Finish what I said, Ryan!" Rendra shouted again in displeasure when he realized that Ryan's idea had not been fully heard.

Ryan, who had left a long time ago, of course did not hear Rendra's words and was still busy chasing his girlfriend. For now the priority is to make Malika happy, that's all.

"Honey, wait!" Ryan shouted frustrated because Malika hastened her steps to get to her car. However, the woman of course ignored him.

"Shit!" Ryan cursed angrily while stroking his hair roughly.

Ryan continued to drive the car he was driving. Crucify some other riders. The man kept cursing because he still couldn't see Malika's car.

"Where are you, Honey," Ryan muttered in frustration when he couldn't find Malika's car after ten minutes of driving.

Even though Ryan immediately drove his car, but still couldn't catch up with Malika. Maybe she was a racer or something.

Don't forget Ryan also contacted Malika via phone calls from his cellphone. However, it seems Malika is deliberately turning away from all of Ryan's calls.

Frustrated, Ryan immediately drove his car to Malika's house.

It didn't take long, Ryan arrived at his lover's house. A security guard greeted him as soon as he got there.

"Good evening, Mr. Ryan. Miss Malika just arrived." The security guard who already knew Ryan immediately invited the man to enter.

Ryan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that his lover had arrived home safely.

Ryan hurriedly parked his vehicle, then walked towards the entrance of the house, coincidentally the door was not closed.

However, just as Ryan was in the doorway, a middle-aged woman rushed over to him in a hurry.

"Sorry, Mr. Ryan, can't come in. This is Miss Malika's order, Mr. Ryan." The middle-aged woman looked timid. It seemed that she felt bad for Ryan.

"I just want to talk to Malika for a moment, Ma'am. Can you take a moment, okay?" Ryan coaxed with a pitiful smile.

The woman looked embarrassed, unable to answer Ryan's question. Actually he really wanted to say 'yes', but remembering the order from his master he finally shook his head slowly as a sign of refusal.

Ryan took another deep breath. "At least let me in for a drink, Ma'am. It's thirsty."

"But, Mr. Ryan—"

"Just a drink, Bi. Not to see Malika. Auntie can bear to see I'm thirsty. What if I faint from dehydration?" Ryan took out his mainstay stance. He was sure the soft-hearted middle-aged woman would melt.

"Fine. Just a drink, okay, Mr. Ryan?" The woman reassured him.

"Yes, Ma'am. Yes." A sly smile crossed Ryan's lips.

With a heavy heart, the middle-aged woman invited Ryan in, then immediately went to the kitchen and got him a drink of water.

However, when she returned to the living room the living room was empty, he did not find Ryan's figure. Immediately his face became pale.

"Could Mr. Ryan go to Miss Malika's room. Wow, she will get angry, here," the woman complained, patting her forehead.

The woman regretted having believed Ryan's words. She should have realized the cunning trick the man was playing.

Meanwhile, Malika, who was about to go out for dinner, was surprised by the figure of a man standing in front of her bedroom door.

"Ryan?" Of course Malika was very surprised. Just as Malika was about to call her household assistant, suddenly the middle-aged woman came in a hurry, the glass of water in her hand was still tightly held.

"Mr. Ryan . . . here's the drink."

"Drink?" Malika still doesn't understand.

Ryan immediately took a sip of water in a glass and finished its contents. "Thank you, Miss. Sorry to have to be brought here."

"Sorry, Miss. Earlier, Mr. Ryan asked for a drink before going home, too bad he was thirsty. That's why auntie got me a drink first." The woman explained with a frightened look.

Malika looked at Ryan who was smiling seductively at him. Now he knew this was all just his lover's trick.

Malika smirked after realizing everything.

"Oh, so... you just came here to drink?" Malika asked glancing at Ryan and nodding her head.

"N-not only that, really. I also wanted to meet you," Ryan said wistfully, scratching his head that didn't itch.

However, a man's baritone voice caught their attention.

"You've had your drink and met Malika. So, go home now!"
