Chick Intern And Duda Cool
Chapter 168 Meeting at the Same Place

Arya, the man is still glued to the screen of his phone since 10 minutes ago. He read a message from Dinda. Actually, he was meeting online with the management ranks in the region. The turn for the presentation is over. But, he still had to stay in the meeting listening to the other presenter speak.

From: My wife 

Mas Arya, I have a meeting outside, maybe until 6 or 7. Mas Arya did not bother to pick up, I took an online motorcycle taxi.

Arya replied: 

I'll pick you up later. Just tell me the address, I'll be there when you're ready, yeah. 

……

Since then, there has been no reply from Dinda.

‘Did I call Erick? Ah.. surely he has started meeting.’

‘But this is Dika. I have to phone.’

‘Ah.. Arya, you have to be professional. It's a work matter. Meetings. Your time must be possessive. In the future Dinda will also have a career, right.’

‘But, just ask, not possessive dong.’

Arya was arguing with herself. On the one hand he was curious and did not accept Dinda involved in a meeting with Dika. On the other hand, he could not ignore his professionalism at work.

Tok tok tok tok tok tok

“Sign in.”, Arya replied.

It was Siska who knocked on the door.

“Pak Arya, team 8 asked, meeting with them can be advanced so today? He said that tomorrow they have to study the field at the client's place. The schedule has just been replaced.”, explained Siska.

“Hm? 30 Minutes to go? I still meet online.”, reply Arya.

“Before I ask yes Mr.”, Siska quickly move out ensure the schedule is back.

“Can Sir said.”, replied Siska.

“OK. Hm, Sis. Tell them we're meeting outside. I treat.”, said Arya.

“Oh, okay good, sir. Whereabouts? Do I need a reservation?”, asked Siska.

“Hm, briefly. Later I send the name of the resto and its address to you.”, said Arya.

Siska agreed and immediately resigned. Arya then checked her phone. Usually Rini and Suci often post on social media about any of their activities outside the office. And Arya's guess is correct, Rini just posted the restaurant where she was meeting.

Arya immediately sent the name of the restaurant and its address so that Siska could make a reservation.

********

“Rin, don't keep telling stories. It's really bad.”, said Erick who was tired of seeing Rini and Suci busy taking photo shots. They were taking advantage of the moment while waiting for Dika and Dinda.

If Dika had come, they would not have dared to do so. Although it had been almost a month, they were still not used to Dika.

Meanwhile in Dika's car.

“You just graduated this year?”, asked Dika who wants to just be alkaline because the atmosphere in the car was quiet.

“Hm. Yes Sir.”, Dinda replied briefly then the situation returned silent.

“Then, how do you know this company? Get a recommendation?”, ask Dika again.

“Neither Sir. I know from the senior. Many of them work and apply here. But mostly in the IT.” division, replied Dinda.

Dika nodded - nodding at Dinda's reply.

“Hm..you.. and Arya, know each other?”, Dika including people who can not be calm if curious about something.

During the day he saw the interaction of Arya and Dinda that was so natural in front of the restaurant. Do they have a special relationship? He also wants to make sure if Arya's new wife mentioned by Sarah the other day, is Dinda right. Yes, it may just happen to be the same name. Despite a very small coincidence. That's why he wanted to make sure.

Dinda seemed confused by Dika's question that arrived - arrived.

“Hm.I mean Mr Dika, Mr Arya the head of Business and Partners?” division, Dinda replied with a question.

“Hn. Mr. Arya.”, said Dika.

“Of course. He was the Head of the Provisional Division for DD before Mr. Dika entered.”, Dinda replied with heart - heart.

“I mean not in the office. But outside the office. You guys know each other?”, ask Dika again.

“...Hm?”, Dinda turned her head for a while with a puzzled look.

“Ah... I can not pura - pura. I accidentally saw Arya seem to pick you up at the restaurant, where our team had dinner together before. You guys look really close too. Your brother? Or don't - don't your boyfriend?”, asked Dika who instead of making the atmosphere become relaxed but even more awkward.

“Oh? Hm..”, Dinda is really confused as to what to answer.

This situation was clearly very different compared to the situation when Bryan asked Arya about him. That is, it is not normal that people like Dika who is the division head are not interested in this matter. Whether or not there is a special relationship between Arya and Dinda, Dika should not care too much.

“.....”

Dinda still confused to answer what. It was as if he had added no other words besides the question. The distance was getting closer to the destination and they had already arrived.

“Maybe you can answer next time. Let's go down.”, said Dika invite Dinda.

Inside the restaurant, the three people instantly set their eyes on the newly arrived Dika. Samar - faint, they only realized that behind him there was Dinda.

“Shit, you did not invite Dinda, was?”, asked Erick hit Rini's arm because he was surprised to see Dinda.

Rini and Saints were also in the same position. They remembered they had forgotten something.

“You're. Why Dinda stayed. Fortunately I saw, otherwise we met without him. Later he helped us a lot for operational affairs.”, said Dika while sitting at the table they had previously reserved.

“Wah Din, sorry - sorry. Rini, he forgot. Your supervisor didn't bring his men, Rin.”, Erick said, throwing his hot ball at Rini.

The so-called person could only throw a puzzled face at Erick. While Holy, it seemed like he had already accepted reality. He didn't seem too interested in their language.

“OK, have you guys ordered?”, asked Dika.

“Hm.. already Sir. We wanted to send the menu to the Father so we could all order too. But, just inget if you are driving yourself.”, said Rini.

A waiter gave Dika and Dinda a menu of food and drinks. Dinda looked for food she could eat. More precisely because he was nauseous, he had to be more careful - heart choosing food.

He had also not taken the pill that Arya had given him for this afternoon. There was no way he would take out the pill in front of them.

“Mba, I am this yes.”, said Dika pointed to one menu.

“Din, this is delicious. I often order this here.”, said Dika gave a recommendation because he quite often ate at this place with Sarah before.

“Oh. yes mas, I order this too. To drink it I iced oranges.”, said Dinda handed the menu to the waiter.

After ordering, Dika immediately started the meeting, all waiting for the order to come. For 30 minutes or so, the new food came. At the same time, from the entrance of the horde they knew.

More precisely, Rini, Suci, Dinda and Erick were familiar with. Dika is still new, so has not known many people in the company.

“Pak Arya? Could be the same place. They want to meet here too?”, asked Rini to Erick.

Erick just shrugged his shoulders. He's confused too. Erick reflexively looked beside him, where Dinda was sitting. Dinda also put on a blank face because she did not know that Arya was also meeting here.

“Not that Mr Arya?”, said Dika who just focused on what others saw.

Erick and Rini nodded.

“It looks like they also want to meet, Sir.”, Saints said.

“Hm.. for ages, I have never met Mr. Arya before every come here. Tumben once, yes.”, said Dika.

“Hm.. usually Mr. Arya meeting at the club (strange siih). But he said he had not met outside for a long time except for the cafe. Why arrive - arrive at the restaurant, yes?”, Rini was surprised.

On the other side. Arya pura - pura did not see or look for the whereabouts of his wife. Before entering, he had already seen Dika's car in the parking lot, so he could already confirm that the man must be here.

When he managed to find the silhouette of Erick and Rini at a glance, he immediately stroked his chest in relief because it turned out that Dinda did not meet together with Dika. Previously, Arya thought Dinda was just a meeting with Dika. When he was in the office, he just saw the two of them get off the elevator.

“Oh, not that Mr Erick, yes?”, said Wawan.

Currently, Arya with team 8 managed by Albert. Because Gilbert was no longer there, Wawan and Egi bandaged to Gilbert's team who was also overwhelmed with many projects.

“Iya, there is also Dinda Wan.”, said Egi.

Arya immediately turned her head to Egi and Wawan. As if - if you want to say, ‘since when did they know Dinda’?.

“Ah. internal DD division, sir. Who at that time took care of smart report.”, replied Egi who interpreted Arya's view like she was looking for an explanation.

“Yes, I know. I will be Head of DD Division if you forget.”, replied Arya.

“A-ah, yes too. Forgot, Mr.”, replied Egi and Wawan.

“Beauty her son, sir. Team building also has one team. So, just know sir.”, replied Egi doubtful - doubtful.

“From the same internal focus. You better focus on fixing your presentation.”, said Arya with a killer tone and passed following the waiter who will show their table.

“Mana can swallow food if Pak Arya like the Grim Reaper so.”, Egi told Wawan.

“Lagian, aja Mr. Arya also likes the same intern, hahaha.. So he sewot.”, said Wawan still had a joke.

“Suek..dare if Mr. Arya is no longer around you. Try to say so fitting again there is a person.”

“Yes, I still have a lot of Gi installments. Not yet wanted to be fired.”, said Wawan still continue his jokes while following Mr. Arya and some other team members. While Mr. Albert himself is still dizzy looking for parking because the one in front is full.

“Meeting to greet Mr. Arya first, yes.”, said Dika to his team.

In contrast to Arya who remained cool, Dika who heard the word Rini took the initiative to approach Arya.

“Sore Mr. Arya. Wah, meeting here too?”, said Dika berbasa - stale.

“Oh.. Ja. How fortuitous. Mr Dika meeting too? Just arrived or?”, reply Arya while still continuing her acting. Act as if you do not know that the DD team is also meeting here.

“It's been almost an hour. There is a big project, or from the client?” place, asked Dika.

“Oh no.. It has not been a meeting outside for a long time, so I want to treat my team.”, replied Arya.

“A-ah. Hope the meeting is good. I went back first. Coincidentally the meeting was not finished, the food just came.”, explained Dika.

“Please.”, reply Arya smile.

Drrrrtt Drrrrttt

Arya's phone rang.

From: My wife

Arya meeting here too? How did you not say? Didn't you just pick me up? I don't think Arya has another meeting.

Arya replied: 

Arrive - there is. Later go home together. Look out together Dika.

Dahi dinda shriveled in surprise reading a message from Arya.

‘When did I say to go home with Mr. Dika. Kan I said go home ojek online.’

“Din, you noted MoM, the meeting right?”, asked Rini to make sure because he saw Dinda was busy with her phone.

“Ah..Yes mba. I recorded all.”, replied Dinda.

About two hours they spend discussing the next step of the project they will carry out. Dika had closed the meeting and allowed the others to go home while he paid the food bill. Rini immediately rushed out of the parking lot because she had an appointment with her boyfriend.

As usual, Erick waited for Dika to finish the payment and planned to get out together even though they were riding in different cars.

“Din, I go first, yes.”, Suci told Dinda.

While Dinda excuses to go to the musholla to complete its obligations. Upon her return from the musholla, Dinda intended to order a drink while opening her laptop to wait for Arya to finish her meeting.

But he was surprised, because it turned out that Dika and Erick still did not come home.

“Loh, Din.. I guess you're home.”, Erick said as soon as he realized Dinda was back inside the restaurant.

“Aah... i. wait for online ojek. Yes... have a message but it has not appeared as well.”, there is no other reason that Dinda can think of besides.

“Bareng me only. Where is your home?”, asked Dika.

Erick's forehead immediately shriveled because they had just ordered another drink because they wanted to continue chatting.

“Oh no sir, no need. I would like to make a deal with a friend, yes. Any more discussions if they want to come here or not. Gitu.”, lucky, Dinda can think of another reason.

“Yakin?”, asked Dika did not just believe the words - said Dinda. She just felt like Dinda had subtly rejected him.

“Iya Sir. Don't bother - bother.

Meanwhile, the bewildered Erick could only remain silent without much comment. He already knew that Dinda must be waiting for Arya to finish the meeting.

Before long Dinda sat down, Egi, Wawan, and the other Arya team had finished meeting. Brand looks to be carrying bags out the resto. Except for Egi who realizes Dinda is sitting alone at a table.

Yes, Dinda chose not to rejoin at Erick and Dika's table because it seemed like they wanted to chat about something else and it didn't seem like a suitable place for her to join either.

“Hai Din's. Not home? I saw Suci had come home.”, Egi said in style and tone as if they were close.

“Again waiting for friends, mas.”

“You're coming home with me, right? I brought car.”, said Egi offer.

Egi rubbed - rubbing his back neck like there was a sharp aura pointing at him.

“Ga do it, I'm with my friend only. In that case, see you tomorrow at the.” office, said Dinda only base - stale.

But, Egi was even flat and parting with a smile - a smile. As he was about to get out, he passed Arya at the cashier's desk.

“PPT don't forget.”, Arya said in a flat tone but her gaze was sharp.

“Iya, Sir. Thanks for the transaction, Mr.”, Egi replied immediately to run away. As soon as Egi opened the door, two people entered the restaurant. Arya who was waiting for the receipt from the cashier idly turned to look towards the exit.

His gaze unintentionally caught the two people who had just entered the restaurant. Sarah and Dimas.
