The sound of ringing the phone for the umpteenth time does not make the man look urakan wake up. He was still faithfully face down on the bed, surrounded by several bottles of alcoholic beverages.
Not only does his appearance look very messy, the man's room is also like a broken ship with minimal lighting.
The man began to growl annoyed while moving his body, when again his phone lying on the bed rang again. He lazily picked up the phone and muttered.
"I'll never be in the office again, and don't try to force it!" he said briefly while hanging up the phone without waiting for his interlocutor to make a sound.
The man then sat on the edge of the bed, then walked straight to the sink to wash his face and brush his teeth.
After he finished doing the activity, he just stood staring in front of the mirror, staring at his pathetic reflection.
"Adelia," the man muttered in a soft tone.
...**********...
"Morning, Ms. Adel," greeted several employees at Adelia who had just arrived at the office. Unlike usual, this time the woman went to the office alone. From now on he no longer needs to pick up Alex, because the man has hired a private driver.
To be honest Adelia was a little happy, because she no longer needed to feel rushed to the office.
Arriving at the desk, Adelia put down her bag and went to Alex's room to prepare coffee. Not to forget a pack of sandwiches was also placed on the table for the man's breakfast.
"Morning." Alex arrived five minutes later.
Adelia answered the gentleman's greeting, before then asking him for breakfast first.
"The file Steve asked for yesterday, is it ready?" ask Alex.
"Already, Mr. Alex," replied Adelia.
Alex can only snort resignedly, every time Adelia pinned the annoying call for him.
"Where is that guy? He went to the office first" Alex said.
"It doesn't seem to be coming. I had a peek at his desk when I walked over here."
Breathing out of Alex's mouth. Since returning to work two weeks ago, Steve has been less disciplined during working hours. However, he was still able to complete his task well. Therefore Alex did not scold him at all and only gave a little advice to be an example for employees.
"In that case, I say yes, sir," said Adelia while bowing her body a little. The woman then turned around to leave the room.
"Del," call Alex.
"Yes?" Adelia.
"Night has time, right?" ask the man.
"There was. Why the hell?" Adelia asked back. This time the woman's tone seemed more relaxed than before.
Adelia nodded her head.
...**********...
Nightfall.
The romantic atmosphere was so thick that Adelia felt, as soon as her feet stepped into the luxurious restaurant with Alex. This isn't the first time Alex has invited Adelia to dinner together. However, this time they ate in a luxurious restaurant that is very romantic for couples drunk in love.
Many ornaments full of warmth and love are installed neatly there, such as paintings and heart-shaped ornaments.
"It looks like we got the restaurant wrong!" chirp Adelia with an awkward tone.
"No, I did reserve a place here for us."
Hearing Alex's words, Adelia's forehead suddenly shriveled. His eyes spontaneously stared intently at the diners who he believed were lovers or husband and wife.
"We're not a couple, why are we here?" adelia asked without bothering to hide the tone of her protest.
"Ck, come on, come on!" Alex, reluctant to respond to Adelia's protest, rushed to pull the woman's hand toward one of the tables, which were right by the glass. From there they could see the beautiful lights of the building. Understandably, because the restaurant is on the highest floor of a five-star hotel.
The two restaurant waiters who had been guiding them since, were kindly serving their second order.
"So?" adelia said, as soon as the two maids left.
Alex, who did not understand Adelia's words, raised his eyebrows high.
"Your goal is to bring me here" continued Adelia.
Alex's face changed immediately. "Del, don't destroy the atmosphere."
Adelia smiled sweetly, which made Alex's heart again rumble loudly.
"I feel you don't deserve the call 'Mas'" Adelia said honestly. Since a few months ago, Alex has been telling Adelia to call him that. But Adelia always left. If you want, you must be forced.
"I'm also a Javanese! Even those who are not Javanese are happy to be called 'Mas'!" alex's protest instantly got a little laugh of Adelia.
Of course the 'Mas' addressed to him and to others cannot be equated.
Not to mention even though the man was indeed Javanese blood, still his bulenya face was more domineering. That's why Alex's face looks handsome and unique, which makes it easy for women to fall in love with him.
However, again Alex only wants to drop his heart on Adelia, a woman who has been widowed and far from the criteria of perfect women.
The ever-failing housewife had to think a thousand times about getting back into a relationship with a man. Even if it's a nice guy like Alex.
"Alright, I'll think about it," said Adelia softly.
