99 Love for You
Jealousy Signs of Love

All this time I may not have thought clearly. I always think about everything from my point of view. In fact, many things that we can not see only through the eyes, but must be with....

HEARTED

...💟💟💟...

That night as usual Rangga visited the Lover chocolatte cafe. His mind is in turmoil. And a cup of chocolate can usually clear his mind again.

Memories of the togetherness of Cecil and Alvian always filled his brain. And he shouldn't have disputed the relationship between the husband and wife. He shouldn't feel like he's pounding when he's with Cecil.

Is that love? I never believed in what was called love. For years I have avoided falling in love. But why do I feel like my chest is so tight now? When you see him with someone else?

Rangga sipped a cup of chocolate on his desk.

Can't! I can't keep this up. It's impossible if I fall in love. What Danny said was right. I need to focus on the company. Papa left this company so I could manage it well. How can I change just because of women. What I feel now, is sympathy. I am so sorry to see him cry. Aye! Surely so!

Rangga again sipped his drink. Looking hard ahead, and reassuring herself that everything she's been doing lately is ridiculous. A ridiculous thing that would never be done by a Rangga Adi Putra.

The relationship between men and women is the most ridiculous thing in the world. A wedding?? I don't believe in any of that. Bullshit!!!

From tomorrow, everything will be back to how it was. Everything will go back to normal.

- Building AJ Foods

That morning Rangga held a meeting of all employees. He announced that if the rules he had made, he had changed back and added new rules. He also targets all employees to perform better than ever before.

Some employees gossiped about Rangga's changing attitude. They think that the boss is still being childish and still unstable.

There are also those who think that Rangga is not suitable to replace his father who is very firm and disciplined.

Rangga heard all the gossip about her. But he ignored. It was a risk for him because he brought many changes that seemed forced.

...***...

After meeting Rangga to meet Cecil. His gaze on Cecil returned cold. Just like the first time they met at the office.

"Where are the operational reports for this week? Why haven't you handed it to me?" rangga said without making small talk.

Cecil surprised. He was confused as to what to answer. Stared very sharply by his boss as if there was a lion king ready to pounce on him.

"Why silence?"

"Sorry, Sir. Isn't the report submitted once a month? For the week is not over sir, I---"

"You didn't hear what I said in the meeting room? I've changed the rules."

"Yes but, sir. Didn't just get replaced today, there's no way I--"

"Enough! I don't want to know, quickly finish your report and bring it to my room. Understood?!"

Cecil took a very long breath. "Good, Sir! I'll do it as soon as possible!" answer Cecil by continuing to review his smile.

the Rangga Room

"This is the report you asked for." Cecil handed the blue map to Rangga.

And read by Rangga.

"I'll excuse you, sir."

"Eits, wait a minute! You sit here first. I haven't finished checking your report." Rangga directed his eyes towards the chair in front of him.

Long enough Rangga checked all the reports that Cecil brought. And Cecil just kept silent waiting anxiously whether the report was in line with Rangga's expectations or not. He still remembered how Rangga treated him and Rani just because of a report.

Rangga handed back the blue map. "It's been as expected, at least a little revision because you've got a typo."

"Oh, I'm sorry sir if I'm not careful. I'll revise it soon. Then excuse me, sir."

Just now Cecil will move from his seat, again Rangga prevent it.

"Wait a minute, may I ask you something?"

"Eh, yes sir, I can."

"What does marriage mean to you? Are you happy after being married for years?"

"Eh?"

"Why are you asking about marriage?"

"I just want to know what you think of marriage."

"It is not the father himself who forbids employees to talk about personal things. Why are you asking me something personal?"

"If you don't want to answer, yes. Your business is done. Please get out of my room!"

Cecilia left Rangga's room with an annoyed face. "Basic sucks!!!! Once a bitch will still suck!!!" cecilia grouse.

...***...

Instead of thinking about the questions asked by his boss, Cecil decided to stop by Jimmy's boutique after hours. He hasn't been shopping for a long time either. And be Cecil pick out the clothes he's going to buy. But this time he did not buy clothes for her, but for Nayla.

She wanted to give a small gift to Nayla, because it had been one year since she helped to take care of Tasya during Cecil's work.

Arriving home, Nayla is thrilled to receive a gift from Cecil.

"Thank you very much, Ma'am. Ma'am Cecil shouldn't have done this."

"It's okay, Nay. I should thank you anyway. Because you've been looking after Tasya for as long as I've been working."

"I'm happy, because Mbak Cecil and Mas Alvian finally made up. And I hope you'll stick together, for Tasya's sake."

Cecil smiled bitterly.

It's not really a fix, Nay. But I gave Mas Alvian a chance to fix everything. I myself cannot judge whether Mas Alvian has started to improve or not. I'm still waiting to see if our marriage can survive or not.

Just wait!! A wedding??

Suddenly Cecil remembered Rangga's question at the office earlier.

What does marriage mean to you? Are you happy after being married for years?

Damnit damnit!! Why even remember him? What does it mean to ask like that? Don't he know that Mas Alvian and I are having a problem? I'd better be careful with Mr. Rangga. He's a hard person to guess. A moment good, a moment sucks!

...***...

The next morning at the Alvian and Cecil residences.

Before Cecilia leaves for the office, Nayla intercepts her and asks about Alvian's favorite food. Nayla expresses her wish to thank Cecil by cooking a special dinner for Cecil and Alvian.

Cecilia was fond of whether to answer Nayla's question or not.

Nayla was Mas Alvian's wife as well, although she had never been treated as a wife by Mas Alvian. Because Mas Alvian keeps my feelings. And all this time he's been taking good care of Tasya, being a mother to her when I'm not around. And now he's asking, why am I so hard to answer? Just a simple question Cecil, he just asked what is Mas Alvian's favorite food. Can you not answer it?

"Sir Cecil? Why shut up, Mommy?" Nayla's voice ripped Cecil's mind off.

Nah! I can't tell Nayla. I don't want Mas Alvian to turn away.

And finally Cecil pretended if he got a phone call from his office. Then leave immediately for Nayla. Cunning indeed. But what can I do. Cecil wants to remain a winner in Alvian's heart.

A moment after Cecil passed, it turned out that Nayla asked Neneng again. Cecil saw the incident. Then give the code to Neneng not to give an answer to Nayla's question.

What happened to Cecilia? Is he jealous? Jealous if any other woman knows the things her husband likes. Seems like.

.

.

Arriving at the office, Cecil contacts Alvian and asks Alvian not to tell Nayla if Nayla contacts him later.

Cecilia is competing with Nayla. Though all this time, he was calm even though Alvian had married Nayla a year ago.

Is it now that Cecil's starting to fear losing Alvian?

...***...

When dinner arrives, Cecil pretends to apologize to Nayla for not having time to tell about Alvian's favorite. He reasoned to be very busy in the office and did not have time to report via a short message as well. Nayla understands that.

Cecil thinks he has won. But how surprised he was when the food hood was opened, emblazoned with very real if all the food available at the dining table is a variety of favorite seafood dishes Alvian.

Cecil who initially smiled evil, now can only be silent with a state that turned 180 degrees from his estimate.

Where does Nayla know about all this? What does Nayla mean by actually asking me if she already knows everything? He---not as I thought. She's not the Nayla I know. I better be careful of him. He could have just pretended not to know anything in front of me.
