Captured by the Past
CHAPTER 78: Apology.

The refreshing fragrance of roses cradles the golden brown haired girl who is soaking in a round-shaped bathtub with a deep white color, foam bubbles from rose-scented soap with rose petal granules that follow the body of the girl skinned as white as milk.

On his right and left side the bottles of toiletries lined up neatly, slowly he picked up one of the blue bottles with a luxurious blend of white and gold, he poured a few drops into his hand and he rubbed it so that it created bubbles that soared him wrapped around his feet with those fragrant bubbles.

Suddenly her phone which was not far from her bathtub rang loudly, the girl turned her head calmly, and, he dipped his foam-filled hand until it was gone and he dried it with a towel on his right, he hung it on a small hanger. After that, Almira took her phone and picked up the phone call that had rang since then.

"Why Man?"he answered that phone call.

"Where is Lu? Royyan is the same you aren't? You see Royyan suddenly left without telling anyone, the Adjunct nyariin your man," explained Manda from behind a cellphone.

The girl frowned not knowing, "no, I'm out of the house. Maybe ... Royyan's sister is at her parents' house or at the office, Adrian asked, she must know," replied Almira leaning her body into the bathtub.

"Okay, I'll have Ajun call Adrian, uh but where are you now?"

"Euum ... cave again in the apartment, I just bought a deket apartment with my boutique, but I can't tell you, because I want to hide from everyone," explained Almira.

"What's? Really? You sure your man's law is that?"manda was surprised by Almira's words.

He did not expect that if Almira really did the thing he had said while in Bali, Manda's sigh sounded heavy. He felt that what Almira was doing was too dangerous.

"Ra .. Are you sure you want to be away from your husband?"ask Manda seriously.

Almira. Her soul ached when far away from Royyan, but given how torn her heart and body saw Royyan prefer Elshara to her husband please, just because the husband knew how great Almira was to conquer the water.

His determination was again rounded, the always gentle countenance of his face suddenly became tense and rough along with a snorting roar of breath with a sigh. "Gue stayed away to find out, whether Royyan's brother loved Rala or when it was just a sense of pity" he said in a firm voice.

"OKAY. What if your husband finds me?"

"Lu just say, if I go to Paris and do not know where and when you return you do not know, finished," he replied with a plain face.

"Done what, uh you don't forget who your husband is."

"meaning?"kernyit Almira carried himself sitting upright, the bare chest was pounding with a strong beat.

"Your husband is the company leader of Rain Corporation, one of the strongest property companies in the country, your husband's company cooperated a lot with big companies in Germany and Paris, the, the power of the company is very strong. To find out where you are, it doesn't feel that hard for Royyan," explains Manda.

Degh's!

Almost he forgot how influential the husband was, then the girl gulped his saliva hard, even he had a moment of stumbling, he restored his face to the nape of his neck, he was so happy, the last seconds of the phone call stopped he used to be stuck, entering word by word that was thrown from the mouth of his best friend.

Until finally the phone call was stopped, he put his phone on the table next to it fused with the other toiletries, a panicky humming filled Almira bitterly.

"Gue had to go to Paris without telling anyone, but ..."his determination soon dimmed again when he remembered his parents who always easily found him, paris is the vehicle of Ressa and Miranda's business, quickly he shriveled and his body sagged into the water that was submerging him.

Elsewhere Royyan has returned to work as usual in his office with Adrian who was in the meeting room with his other staff, they sat quietly in front of their laptops, respectively, on the right and left are the files of big project plans that will be handled by the company.

"We started the meeting" cried Adrian who stood in front of everything was preparing materials to talk about in the meeting.

After everything was ready, Royyan moved from his great seat in the midst of all his staff, gradually to the podium he used to discuss the development plan.

"Today we will discuss about the German national museum of mahakala art development project, this project is very large, there is no one mistake. This development will take more than a year, so focus on yourself and take care of your health" Royyan said firmly as he opened the design of the museum that he had completed alone.

The client asked Royyan to design the museum, and did not want any interference from the others, while the other architects and designers who are in the shade of the Rain corporation are competent people who have extraordinary abilities, but the client still forced Royyan.

The magnificent building with high-quality building materials and is also rare to get, not only a building that will later display a variety of historical objects from the country, he said, but the building was made in a certain part a diamond that would be the key to the control room.

A box-shaped building with round objects on it as smoke attractors to slow the spread of fire in case of fire, Royyan designed the magnificent building with as much detail as possible, the building is as luxurious as anything if not thought out carefully then the results will still find disability.

"What about the plan I made, please get out your opinion?"asked Royyan after he explained how the building design was made.

Everything was quiet, no one dared to comment on Royyan's near-perfect work plan, even the staff were amazed by the design, it was amazing. It looks like they have a lot to learn from his boss, how could Royyan think of designing such a luxurious building with perfect details.

"The gaffer's plan was perfect, and we couldn't even think of this detail. You are indeed an extraordinary architecture, your work is truly extraordinary, "praise one of the staff.

As Royyan grinned, "okay."the man sighed while clapping his hand once, "we're going to use this plan, please, I was given great authority to design it without having to fight with other companies to get it, and it's a big responsibility, so I hope you guys work well and don't make mistakes, even as small as anything."

"Alright sir,"that's all in unison.

"Meeting is done here and please return to your respective work.

The burly man immediately floated out of the meeting room with Adrian who swiftly tidied up Royyan's laptop and files, the man had to get out immediately because the vibrations on his phone were firmly grounded, he said, he picked up the phone call.

"Gue wants to meet me, meet me at the restaurant we used to go to at High School" said someone behind the phone.

"okay."Royyan immediately turned off the phone.

And someone there did not feel offended or heavy-hearted because of Royyan's short answer, because he already understood very well how Royyan really is. The man behind the phone is Dirta.

The man rushed from the airport as he had just arrived from Bali, his tired footsteps gradually getting into the online taxi he ordered, he said, the black car drove away from the airport and united with the other vehicles. He leaned against the seat of the car he was sitting in, the small cushion that was stuck to the seat making him sleep comfortably.

While Royyan had arrived at the restaurant Dirta was referring to, the restaurant had always been the best choice when they would hang out, spending time together shortly after returning from school. In the left corner, five meters from where Royyan is now entering the middle area of the restaurant Manda and Almira are eating his food.

Manda bought it shortly after she saw the dashing figure swinging to the second floor, precisely to the VVIP room that had been ordered by Dirta for their meeting. This is the first time Royyan and Dirta met with seriousness, when in Bali they just weaved a short meeting without talking seriously.

"Ra ... lu Ra's man is here," the whisper of Manda shaking Almira's hand who was about to put a piece of grilled meat in her mouth, so that it fell onto the plate again.

"Euuum .."Almira protested with annoyance as she closed her mouth that had been slightly opened earlier, "ih you what the hell, I want to eat also hold my hand, fall will be,"upset Almira, then she turned her head towards the look Manda looked at.

Almira gasped so that her chest tight, she covered her mouth did not expect if her husband could arrive there, the location of the restaurant is located quite far from the existence of Royyan's home and office, which is owned by Royyan, but close to his in-laws house.

"What's? What is he doing here? "almira's thesis frowned, then she threw her body down, hiding under the table.

"Eh Ra! Lu was hiding under your rat-kaying table, "decak Manda busied his gaze under the table.

"Saturday!"hiss Almira with his eyes closed, "need not to be noisy, later I get caught, my story is angry and want to hide, how the hell you are," continued Almira whispered."

"Ooh, okay-okay,"so Manda nodded as she tossed her flaky thumb.

While Royyan had arrived at the VVIP room shown directly by the waiter there, as soon as he slid his butt on the soft sofa, he leaned on the sofa.

Shortly after that Dirta arrived in his casual clothes with a full-brown leather jacket complete with his black hat. Without warning or stringing the greeting temple first, he immediately sat himself on the sofa in front of Royyan.

Royyan sighed, "tumben wear a hat," Royyan replied as he pulled his body to sit up straight.

"It's hot outside, I don't want to be an item. My customers can run away, if the cheft is not handsome," replied Dirta nyeleneh.

Royyan laughed a little. Their sense of friendship was very thick, more concentrated than blood. As bad as Dirta's treatment to him he still treats Dirta well, because the man with a pointy nose knows very well how Dirta really is, the man is actually a good man and can treat women well, he said, it was just that he was too consumed by his love.

"So what do you want to talk about?"asked Royyan directly without any pleasantries.

Even the drinks that were ordered by Dirta online have not arrived. The chefs were very careful to make the drink they knew who it was for, if the drink Dirta ordered did not satisfy the reputation of the restaurant would decline, he thought Dirta was one of the most prestigious chefs in the country and Royyan is the strongest property business person in the country.

Before answering Royyan's words, Dirta sighed first to make herself relaxed and calm, this time she was quite tense facing her own best friend. This was the first time he had to sincerely apologize to Royyan.

"I'm sorry to you, I'm so stupid to your neror, even though Ajun always try to make me aware, but basically I'm t*l*l, but basically, so I'm acting like a fool. Sorry Yan, I don't know what else to make my mistake."Dirta was weakly bowed along with her back that was shriveled.

The long-legged man did not answer him, the look he leaned in front of him, piercing through the blades of regret that enveloped the crumbling body. He pulled one of his legs hanging from the other.

"Okay,"sahut Royyan was brief with his leisure.

"Well?!"exclaimed Dirta confused, Royyan's answer raises many new questions in the mind of Dirta, then his face looks up to enter the face of the friend, "okay for what?"tanya Dirta wanted to clarify Royyan's answer.

Royyan sighed as both shoulders rose and then declined again, "okay for your apology. I know that you are not a bad man, and today will come" Royyan replied.

Dirta. His forehead could not wrinkle anymore, he was too surprised by Royyan's attitude, he thought Royyan would beat him up until his bones were crushed, he said, because as he remembers Royyan will do severe violence if the person he loves is hurt.

The events of a few years ago re-entered the memory of Dirta, when Royyan beat up a haughty man who tried to harass his older brother Aneu, who was a bad boy, and the man came home paralyzed next door because Royyan beat the man mercilessly until his right leg suffered a bone fracture.

However, it turned out that Dirta's fear had not happened. Mercifully. But what reason did Royyan not hold a grudge against Dirta?

"Why are you so easy to forgive me, I've been terrorizing you for two years, but why?"Dirta still questioned it.

"Lu didn't make it to take my wife, did he?"sahut Royyan raised an eyebrow, "so I have no reason to beat you up, and the people you tell me to harm me all missed, because you have no intention of being a murderer,"beber Royyan long.

Degh's!

Dirta was again stuck with Royyan's speech, it turns out .. all his plans have been read by Royyan, he felt he had failed to become a reliable successor, he felt that he had failed to be a reliable successor, his passionate soul and feeling all his plans were cool felt humiliated. Quickly he threw his body back leaning on the sofa he was sitting on.

"I'm in vain neror you," he said as he patted his eel.

NEXT ....
