Love expression

Part 28.

"Papa's friend, his household is in trouble. In the process of divorce, it seems he is still traumatized, so Wendy took the initiative to invite him to sit in the garden while telling stories, to be more relaxed."

"Then why did Papa have to come with them too?" investigate me. Papa was silent, couldn't answer, he could only take a shaky breath.

"Za please, Papa don't lie to Mother, for the sake of defending other people!" I said reminding him.

I followed Mother inside, let Papa digest my words. Since my parents had such a dark past, it was my duty to remind them.

*****

Tin... tin... tin.

The sound of car horns sounded from outside the fence. I stood on the balcony terrace to see who was coming. It turned out that Brother Rey and Sis Mona were the ones who went home. Mr. Dirman immediately opened the gate.

This one security is always alert. He never waited long, he immediately understood his task even though I saw him having dinner at the guard post.

Not long after the car behind stopped in front of my house. That's Brother Wendy's car, that means they're out for dinner, I thought. Actually, the martabak I bought earlier was intentionally oversized. His intention was to provide a plate for them.

But Mother's mood was not good, I was afraid to make her angry. So I just ate the plate of rations earlier. When getting out of the car, Wendy looked up, she smiled and waved.

My heart immediately fluttered warm, how long had not felt this. Since Papa and Mother had a fight, I didn't let this heart dissolve in love. But this heart cannot lie. That feeling comes again every time I remember and saw that handsome CEO.

Not long after Mother came out of the room followed by Papa. They went downstairs to meet Bang Rey and Kak Mona. I still feel at home sitting on this balcony reading a romantic novel.

Is it possible that Wendy likes me, or only considers you a brother. While this heart already loves him. Since I was an intern at his office, the CEO has never again sent an intimate chat at night.

Millions of questions are in this mind. Does he already have a new girlfriend or something. I couldn't concentrate on reading novels. Better go downstairs, sit down with the family

"Hey, Za, haven't slept yet, have you?" who is mother?

"Not yet, Bund! Za was sitting on the balcony reading a novel," I said.

"Papa thought he was asleep, because he couldn't hear his voice. Usually you sing often, on the Smule application," Papa mocked.

"Hm, not in the mood, Pa!" I said.

"Why again, Za? Are you upset?" mock

Brother Ray.

"So don't date first! Focus on college, then work!" Papa said.

I kept silent and didn't answer all their taunts. Sis Mona is also silent, since earlier there was no comment. She rarely talks to me. Maybe she thought I was dating Wendy, even though it wasn't what he imagined.

*****

This morning I went to the office to finish my final project. The internship time is one week left, from the three months specified. While working here, I rarely saw Brother Wendy in the office. He has more work in the field.

If Wendy is in the office, Miss Silfi, the assistant, often invites me to make a fuss. She deliberately sought the boss CEO's attention. But Brother Wendy always blames him. I feel honored to have the CEO's defense.

"Za... have you prepared the report for the last task?" asked Brother Wendy.

"Which assignment, Sis?" I'm confused, because I just arrived at the office.

"Hm, a report to bring to your school!"

"Oh, there's still a week left, Bro!"

"Brother, I think the internship will be finished tomorrow."

"What are your plans after graduation!" I've been waiting for this question.

"Hm, want to work in an office like Sis Mona!" I answered slowly.

"Become my life partner, won't you?"

Whatts??? I cheered in my heart, I didn't expect the CEO to dare to ask such a question. He got up from his seat and approached me.

"I love you, Za," he whispers as he lifts my chin.

"Seriously, huh?" I asked in a muffled voice.

Oops, I immediately realized, then smoothed a slightly messy hair. This CEO is still standing at the table. He looked into my eyes looking for an answer to his expression of love.

I know this CEO is surrounded by a lot of women, that's why I didn't believe it right away. The CEO tries to convince him his way.

"I prefer you over the women out there!" he said softly.

"What is the reason, that Big Brother likes me?"

"I like women who are simple, independent and hardworking!" he explained.

"We just met, Bro! And you are surrounded by many sexy and smart women. Including ex-lover who invites back again!"

The CEO immediately fell silent at my words. He took a shaky breath. Then sat back in his chair. He seemed to wake up after I reminded him of this fact.

"Even though today's women are materialistic, adult men must find it difficult to resist the charm of beautiful and sexy women, Bro!" I explained.

"You're right, Za! Therein lies my weakness."

"Za doesn't want to be made a sidekick, Bro."

"Loh, who thinks like that? I'm serious Za! Since seeing you sitting on the balcony That terrace, I can't sleep! Imagine your beautiful face, but often daydreaming!" he said honestly.

*****

I still can't believe what Wendy said. In the office, his attitude is always friendly with any woman. Even the impression often seduce clients. Is that really the profession of a lawyer, I thought.

Today is the last day of internship at Ms. Wendy's office, I have prepared all reports for her to sign. But I don't know if the CEO entered the office or not. The task that Miss Silfi gave was just a little out of the ordinary. Maybe you have shared the task with Arini, my friend.

It was almost twelve o'clock in the afternoon, Sister Wendy had not yet come to the office. I was worried, usually I have to come, after that I just go to the field to meet clients.

To be continued ....
