When Bramasta's face approached Adisti's, Indra stood up.
“Woiiiyy woiiyy! Mr. Boss, Mrs Boss, remember in this room there are also 2 singles. Appreciate us dong.”
Adisti is moving away. Her face flushed and then pointed towards her husband.
“Just blame Him.” Adisti pulled away from her husband's body that was still standing awkwardly, “Excuse me, Mr. Husband. Buk Wife want to eat.”
“Disti.. Babe..” Bramasta approached Adisti again.
“Bram.” Indra looked at Bramasta firmly, then shook his head, “Eat first.”
Bramasta according. However Indra was older than her.
After eating, Adisti distributed hot lemon tea in a paper cup.
“Cautious is still hot.”
“Can I ask you something?” Mr. Armand looked at Adisti.
Adisti looked up in surprise at Mr. Armand. Bramsta and Indra looked at each other.
“This.. has nothing to do with work. It's about myself. What about me?” Mr. Armanda held his paper cup carefully.
“What happened to Mr Armand?” Adisti smiled, “Didn't Mr. Armand look so comfortable with your life right now. Move freely anywhere without worrying about family. Life as single.”
“That's what others see. But there are certain moments I feel saturated with all of this. There is no place I share. There's no place for me to relieve fatigue.” Mr. Armand looked down at his closed glass which he opened. He was observing the smoke from his hot lemon tea.
The expression of Mr. Armand is now a new sight for Bramasta and Indra.
Mr. Armand always looks authoritative, confident and perlente. Her hair was always styled with a perfect pomade. His long pants are always slippery and neat as well as his shirt or suit.
Now, Mr. Armand looks fragile while talking to Adisti.
“So all this time people only see your skin side, Mr Armand? A hard, slippery and shiny shell to hide the true contents of yourself” Adisti smiled at Mr. Armand.
Mr. Armand just stared at Adisti without speaking. Everyone is waiting for Adisti to speak.
“Isn't Mr Armand now in a relationship with a woman? But it seems Mr. Armand is mediocre with the woman.”
Mr. Armand is aghast. He looked at Bramasta and Indra alternately. Both of them just shrugged their shoulders.
“Because you are still imagined with your household failure. There are many injured parties. But you... are the most injured party because you harbored all of this alone.”
“Oh, come on..” Mr. Armand seemed to be trying to refute Adisti's sentence.
“This is just a suggestion from me anyway..” Adisti nodded then smiled at Mr. Armand who was waiting for the next sentence, “Don't start a relationship based on pity. There will be no happiness you want. All there is is is pseudo happiness then it will feel empty.”
“However Miss knows..”
Adisti.
“I don't know anything about your personal life. And I believe so is my husband and Bang Indra. The shell you made is too hard for us. But I don't know about Bang Hans. You know for yourself Bang Hans like having a will lamp that can be rubbed all he wants to find someone's data.”.
“Nona Adisti..”
“I don't know anything, Mr. Armand. What I'm saying right now is because you asked me to volunteer so I suddenly found out about you. I can't explain the process but obviously I know it. It's like I'm reading a book about you.”
“OK. Understood,” Mr. Armand's attitude returned to his original attitude.
“Your shell has been formed again, Mr. Armand. But I've already read a book about you. Ma’afkan me,” Adisti clenched his palms on his chest.
Sir Armand nodded.
“It’s OK. Because I asked for it, right?”
Adisti nodded and smiled. Bramasta and Indra watched them expressionlessly. The two tried to understand the conversation but it felt difficult for them. Out of their reach.
“Man tested when he was at the peak of his achievements. Scintillating career, abundant treasure, high position. On the contrary, women are tested in times of financial hardship. Test the woman who is close to you with it. To see how she sees you whether to know about your real or just a shell.”
Adisti still smiled faintly.
“Ma’af I do not feel you will get married in the near future. It may be a long time but it could be soon.” Adisti sipped hot lemon tea that has turned warm.
“Near Ampera bridge, Palembang. You will meet your woman. You recognize her as a woman who was in your past. You two will not expect to be related to the red thread of a soul mate. Not an easy thing because the past of the woman is so difficult to accept by most people.”.
“Nona Adisti.”
Adisti raised his palm to prevent Mr. Armand from speaking or asking again. Adisti lowered his gaze like he was looking at the carpet of Indra's room which was reddish-brown.
"Disti.." Indra called Adisti.
Adisti. Bramasta touched his wife's lower jaw.
“Are you OK?”
Adisti looked up suddenly and jumped a little.
“Ofcourse I’m OK. Except earlier when Abang said something about less offerings,” Adisti looked at her husband then looked at everything with a confused look seeing Indra and Mr. Armand looking at him seriously, “What's wrong? Why look at Disti to the extent?”
“Genesis again. Mr. Armand, remember carefully what he said. There will be no repeat broadcast..” Indra looked at Mr. Armand with a grin on his face.
Bramasta and Adisti ask themselves to return to their room. Along the way in the corridor, their fingers were clinging to each other.
When Bramasta pulled his wife's hand to reach her, her hand reached her slender waist. Adisti replied by hugging her husband's waist.
“Do not get angry again.” whispered Bramasta.
“Not angry just annoyed.”
“Same. Damage it loh yamg make the heart of Brother poranda poranda,” he dyed his wife's temple.
Adisti chuckled while leaning her head against her husband's arm.

About Mr. Armand intentionally in the spill now, make the next novel material huh. Maybe in the novel, this chapter will be the prologue.
But you have to be patient in line. Work on Red Kuping members who are still single.
Who is still in line: Mr. Accountant (Remain), Mr. Architect (Anton) and the last Mr. Lawyer (Mr Armand). Inshaa Allah, if the Author is still of age yes.. ⁇
