Can It Be Us?
REAL REASON

After she finished showing everything in the apartment, Achazia told Ashana to cook something for her. Ashana who actually wants to protest, can only obey. Think Ashana, why would Andriyani have to cook? Didn't Andriyani take care of this apartment?

"This is sir," Ashana serves food to Achazia. The man did not answer. He just kept quiet while playing his phone.

Ashana who was confused had to sit where just standing next to Achazia. The woman knew what kind of manners the employer was.

Achazia put her phone on the table. The man began to devour the food served by Ashana. Luckily Ashana is good at cooking.

"Adrian wants to see you" said Achazia.

Ashana glanced at the right and left sides. There may be others besides the two of them. Apparently there isn't. Then Achazia spoke to him.

"Me?"

"Yes,"

"Have I ever done anything wrong to her?" Ask Ashana. It was strange to hear that Adrian wanted to meet him.

"No, he just wants to see you. Talk for a while he said," Reply Achazia.

"Oh, okay." Reply Ashana accordingly.

"Be prepared. Another 30 minutes Adrian will come," said Achazia.

Ashana was silent. What does he have to get ready for? The woman did not understand. Wanting to ask but being afraid made Achazia angry.

"Mm, okay. Then, I go to the room first," said Ashana who actually did not know what to do.

Achazia did not answer. The man stared at Ashana's departure until the woman's back disappeared from his sight.

"Why is he so weird? Adrian will meet me and I'm told to get ready? Is it as important as what? Besides, when I get ready, what should I do? Wearing a nice shirt? Ah, I don't understand." Ashana kept talking until she went into the room.

Ashana threw her body on the bed. Just surrounding Achazia's apartment was tired like this. Or is it just getting older?

Ashana takes a breath. "At least I shouldn't look like this when I meet Adrian." Ashana Mumbles. The woman looked at her reflection in front of the mirror. Her once tidy hair started to dishevel. And his face looks tired.

Ashana walks to the bathroom to wash her face to make it look fresh. Not spending a long time, the woman came out and stood in front of the dresser mirror. He smiles. "Not too bad," murmured Ashana.

Ashana re-styled her hair and added a little makeup to make it look fresh. Until Ailee came to her room and told her that Adrian had arrived.

"Thank you Ailee, I'll be there soon."

Ailee smiled. "I'll be waiting for you" Ailee said.

After feeling perfect, Ashana went out to meet Adrian in between by Ailee.

"It's nice to meet you" said Adrian when he saw Ashana coming with Ailee.

"Then I say goodbye" said Ailee, bowing her body and leaving Ashana and Adrian.

"What's wrong?" Ashana asked, still in the same position.

Adrian chuckles. The man patted the sofa beside him. "Sit down first."

Ashana according. The woman sat at a distance that was not too close. He realized that there was no Achazia here. "Sorry before, what do you want to talk to me about?" Ask Ashana again.

Adrian took a breath. The man looked at Ashana. "How was your first day living here?" Ask Adrian.

"Well," replied Ashana.

"How did Achazia do to you?" Ask Adrian again.

Ashana cringing. "You mean?"

"What is Achazia's attitude toward you?"

"As usual. As Master and subordinate," replied Ashana who was confused by Adrian's question.

"So you know why Achazia hired you?" Ask Adrian again.

"You want to know?" Adrian's bargain with a smile.

Ashana looked at Adrian. Eyes sparkling. "You gonna tell me?"

Adrian leaned his body on the sofa with both hands folded. "M.huh, yeah,"

"Tell me!" Pinta Ashana is enthusiastic.

Adrian chuckles. The man looked at Ashana. "Alright, listen carefully" he said.

Ashana nodded obediently. The woman put up an ear to listen to what Adrian said.

"Achazia is betrothed" Adrian said.

Ashana frowned. "Then? What does this have to do with me?"

"Achazia does not want to be betrothed to the woman" Adrian continued.

"Why? Is she less beautiful? Or less rich?" Ask Ashana again.

Adrian shrugged both shoulders. "Even Achazia does not know what it looks like. His family background does not know. His mother kept it a secret from him. But he already knows that. Just don't know who the woman is." Adrian.

"Then me?" Ashana asked while pointing at herself.

"You?"

"What's the reason I got him to keep me here?"

Adrian chuckles. Ashana is funny too. The man looked at Ashana who looked very curious.

"Achazia's mother did not force Achazia to accept the match. But he still betrothed Achazia. And you, you were made a tool for Achazia. To have her mom stop to match her up with that woman, you know? Achazia never had a boyfriend. That's why his mother set him up."

"Ashana who heard it was immediately dumbfounded. "A-i? Why did he choose me?" Ashana asked in disbelief.

"Achazia actually told me to find a woman who deserves to be a tool to lay off her mother. And, I found you," said Adrian casually.

"Why should I?" Ashana looked at Adrian in disbelief. Of the many women in the world why should it be?

Adrian shrugged both shoulders. "Don't know. I don't know why, I suddenly wanted to choose you. Be careful, don't bring feelings. Because I'm not sure if your feelings will be reciprocated or not" said the man calmly but made Ashana hot cold. No, not because Ashana was afraid to fall in love with Achazia. He had already realized himself before. But what he was afraid of was his mother Achazia.

"If I become dragged into the circle of the Achazia family how?" Ask Ashana. This is what the woman was worried about. He is the type of person who does not want to interfere.

Adrian smiling. "will not. Achazia will take care of everything,"

Ashana nodded. Even if the woman is not sure.

"Oh yeah, one more." Adrian.

"What?"

"Ashana." Adrian looked at Ashana seriously. Makes Ashana feel like she will be interrogated by this man before her.

"Try to be the woman who can get into the life of Achazia,"

Ashana scrunched her forehead. "You mean?"

"Achazia is a stiff man who is also talkative. He grew up in a serious family. Only his mother and sister could melt the atmosphere. He never felt in love. The only woman in her life is the woman in her family. Maybe with your arrival her life changed a little?"

Ashana blinked her eyes a few times. Seconds later the woman chuckled. "What are you talking about Adrian? I never had a plan like that. Besides, my job is only as a tool to reject the matchmaking that his mother made, right? Once that's done, I won't have any more business with him." Her speech. Ashana doesn't understand why Adrian told her to do that.

Adrian smiling. "I knew. But as a friend, I can't bear to see him living that cycle. I want to see him fall in love too. Besides, I'm not sure that as long as you stay here you won't fall in love with Achazia. Among the four of us Achazia is the most interesting" said the man teasing Ashana.

Ashana clucking. "As far as you go."
