The working hours have been completed, the workers one by one have left the construction area, not least Edward. However, he could not go home immediately because his car had problems and had to be serviced for a while. He repeatedly checked his phone because it had already00 asked Evan to pick him up, because the promise was also he had been left home by another fellow worker, another co-worker, he did not expect Evan would take a long time to pick him up.
"Evan, is it a long time?" edward asked impatiently, calling his friend on foot.
"I'll be there, wait for me, I'm just done" Evan replied. There was a slight problem on the machine in the factory, he had to fix it first.
"All right, I'll wait." replied Edward, stopping his steps and waiting by the side of the road.
Tin...
A car stopped in front of Edward and someone in the car lowered the glass and greeted Edward. Edward recognized who greeted him, apparently his boss, Mr. Thomas.
"Ed, why haven't you come home yet?" greet Thomas.
"I'm waiting for my friend to pick me up."
"What if I'm the only one delivering" Thomas said.
"Thank you, sir, my friend is coming soon."
"No need to bother" forced Thomas.
"It's okay, my friend has been on the way here" said Edward, subtly refusing. Evan was on his way to pick her up.
"Then I'll be with you waiting for him" said Thomas, turning off the car and coming out to Edward, who was sitting on a rock.
Edward was about to refuse but Thomas was out of his car, the boss was very kind to him.
"I am troubling Mr. Thomas" said Edward, inviting Thomas to sit next to him.
"Call Thomas if we're not at work" Thomas said.
"By the way, this weekend did Mr. Thomas not return to town?" edward began the conversation. He still calls her by name.
Thomas shook his head, "nobody is waiting for me at home even though I'm coming home" he said with a wry smile.
Edward felt bad for asking about the topic and wanted to change the topic, but Thomas continued his sentence.
"If someone tells you not to see him, what are you going to do, are you going to keep seeing him like crazy or do you have to give up and forget about him?"
Thomas's questions were difficult to answer, but Edward kept trying to answer them, "sometimes one had to learn to really give up. But before actually giving up, I had to ascertain whether the rejection was really a word spoken from the heart or just a momentary emotion due to an emotional situation. At least someone who has started something in a good way, then he has an obligation to end it in a good way. At least that's what I'm gonna do."
Thomas nodded, he wanted to stay on good terms with Ana, he missed her.
"Yes, it's just that I don't know where he is now, haha." Thomas said with a laugh.
Edward sighed, his boss' laughter sounded pitiful, what a pity.
"Oia, how about this weekend visit my house, burn a fish." proposed Edward, after hearing the boss's curses, he felt a little sorry for his boss. He could invite Ana and Evan, and make the atmosphere a little crowded
"Sound fun. I'll take Soni if I can."
"Sir Soni? of course I can." There will be Mr. Soni. Well, Mr. Soni is the boss here too. Edward was very happy that many important people were visiting his house, he had to prepare his show carefully.
Thomas then exchanged numbers with Edward to make it easier to contact him later when asking for a home address.
From a distance there is a car approaching to their place, like knowing his friend picked up Edward then saying goodbye because the invitation had come. Thomas waited for Edward to pass and continued his journey home.

Ana put the fruit pudding she made into the refrigerator, of course after waiting to adjust the temperature of the pudding to room temperature, after the jam she switched to decorate the new brownie in the lift from the grill. Ana looked at the clock, it was late afternoon. He did the decoration quickly. No need to make it as beautiful as possible, just decorate it with a little butter cream and cheese, after all, this cake is only for regular meals, not birthday cakes.
Lily says boss Edward will come to her house so she asks Ana to make cookies and pudding to eat this. Entertaining guests is important especially special guests, he said.
If Ana is part of the cake, then next time with Evan, Evan is asked to find fresh fish and shellfish. Edward might be a little exaggerated, because the only two people who came, plus the four of them, but after all, Ana understood a little because the one who came was the kind-hearted boss that Edward always told.
"Alright, the cake is finished," Ana said as she carefully put it in the box.
Now it's time to get ready, he has to come in early and help Lily keep Adam while they prepare.
"Who's gonna pick me up?" Ana asks in their chat group.
Evan: I
Me: All right, come faster, okay
Evan: Ready! Oia, Ed, what about the drink, have you prepared it?
Lily: Boss Edward will take her
Me: Oh, he's so nice!
Edward: Of course, my boss is kind.
Me: Sending pudding and cake photo. The pudding and cake are ready.
Lily: Thank you Ana.
Me: I'll make a special for you Evan.
Me: Equally. All right, I'll get ready.
Evan: 👍
Ana takes care of herself in the mirror, making sure she looks good tonight, doesn't need to look pretty and attract attention, %lia just wants to give the impression of good looking even with her distended stomach. Ana stroked her stomach, she had to record this moment. With a bit of style in front of the mirror Ana took a few photos, She put on a sweet smile while holding her distended stomach.
Ana must take many pictures from now on, she must have a lot of collections to show her son later, how when his son was still in the womb. He smiled imagining that he would soon have children, in the future he would not be alone anymore.
Ana tidied her long hair and tied her hair back with a little bangs as a sweetener. Tonight he wears a comfortable loose shirt, and a warm ash fur sweater, he must keep his body temperature from the cold of the night.

"Are they still a long time?" ask Lily impatiently. She was tired of hearing her husband's stories about how cool and kind the boss was. She wanted to see with her own eyes, as cool as her husband's boss.
"They stopped by for a bit to buy a drink" replied Edward.
"Well, I'm gonna start burning the fish" Evan said.
"Oia, I'll take the pudding in the fridge. All the way to the bathroom," Ana said, the bigger the pregnancy the more difficult it is to hold the pee for too long. It was like going to the bathroom more often.
Mm-br...
The soft sound of a luxury car parking across the street. Edward, who recognized him as Thomas's car, stood closer to them and greeted him.
"Welcome" said Edward, greeting both Thomas and Soni.
Tonight Thomas looks handsome with a black polo shirt and shorts that are also black. Her blonde hair was covered in a black hat she wore upside down, her blue eyes as if smiling with Edward's warm welcome.
While Soni dressed more neatly with a navy color-line shirt that is only partially pocketed, combined with khaki color trousers. His brownish hair was styled accordingly, even so Soni looked very handsome.
Lily until gawking can not believe that boss Edward really cool like the picture of her husband so far, Lily to feel there is an artist who came to her house.
Edward introduces his wife and Evan, he looks for Ana but nothing, so he can only say that my other friend is still in the house.
Thomas enters the grounds of Edward's house while upholding a bag of crackles containing drinks. His smile broadened to see the hospitality of Edward, he saw Lily, Edward's wife carrying their son who was asleep. Evan, Edward's friend who was burning a fish, approached him and reached out with an acquainted hand.
Edward sees Ana out of the house with a tray of refrigerated pudding, "Oh, and this is my other friend, Ana."
Hearing Ana's word, Thomas immediately felt his heart stop beating. He hastily saw a man named Ana.
When Thomas saw Ana, whom Edward meant, he unwittingly removed the bag from his hand, the sound of a broken bottle rang out to break the atmosphere, all eyes on Thomas in astonishment, what happened to him to drop the bottle he was carrying? Adam who heard a rowdy voice suddenly instantly woke up with a loud cry.
Despite the astonished gazes of everyone present and Adam's shrill cry, Thomas did not care at all because his current gaze was focused on Ana. After months of longing for her, he finally found Ana, finally his longing can be cured, finally the wait is not in vain, finally...
"Ana" call Thomas.
Those who noticed Thomas' strangeness then turned to look at Ana because Thomas turned out to know Ana. While Ana looks no less surprised than them, her body even slightly staggered so she had to hold on to the porch fence of the house so as not to fall.
Soni, who finds out that her friend misses Ana so much, goes out of disbelief. The girl his friend was looking for turned out to be a petite woman with a bulging stomach. What the hell is this? thought confused.
Thomas, with a steady step, approached Ana, hoping to embrace her.
But before he arrived, Evan first stood up to him. Thomas angrily threw a fist at Evan who was blocking him. Soni who saw Thomas going into a fight immediately pulled his friend's collar so that Thomas strayed towards him before his fists floated into Evan's face.
Seeing the chaos that occurred Edward immediately asked Evan to bring Ana back into the house. Lily, who was still busy calming her son, looked confused by the events that had just happened. Although he did not understand the details, he immediately brought his son into the house.
Edward faced both of his guests for an explanation. Thomas, who from the beginning of his gaze was fixed on Ana, thrashed from Soni's care. Edward sighed, meaning that the person in his boss's curse was Ana, he did not expect the earth to be so narrow. The boss whom he considered kind-hearted, turned out to be the man who hurt Ana, the pain of heart and the desire for revenge permeated his mind.
Because he saw Thomas still determined to meet Ana make Edward go up, he then raised his fist to Thomas's face, hard enough to make Thomas aware. Soni who did not expect his friend was punched with a plan to take revenge, but was immediately prevented by Thomas.
Holding his sore face from Edward's raw bogem, Thomas looked at Edward with a heartfelt look, a smiley mimic a few minutes ago had vanished, changed with a face full of longing and sadness.
"I'm sorry" Thomas said in a raucous voice. "Please ask me, will Ana give me a chance to meet her. Ask him can I see him again?" her door to Edward, her eyes reddened and tears fell on her cheeks.
Edward was saddened by the incident that befell his boss with Ana, after all men will not be that easy to cry. But Thomas didn't even bother to cover his tears. Edward could not answer just nodding.
Thomas looked at Edward's house once more before leaving. He wishes Ana had seen him, but the house is sealed, only Evan looks at her from the window.
"Ana, please just give me a chance once" Thomas said a little loudly hoping Ana heard.
Soni then embraces her friend and invites her away, because she knows Thomas does not want to leave after knowing someone he always misses turns out to be here. Soni encouraged her friend to keep going.
"Sorry, Edward, for the drink" said Soni, seeing that the drink they were carrying had been broken by Thomas, "the next time I'll treat you."
