Grasping Longs
Part~10's

After ordering Victor to call Herman, shortly afterwards the man was seen coming into his room.

"Sorry sir, did you call me ?" herman said as he opened the door to Demian's room.

Since he was transferred to the headquarters, only this time Herman set foot in the room of the owner of the company.

Demian who was sitting facing the window, immediately turned his chair to look at someone who had been interfering with his thoughts since yesterday.

"Sit down !!" strict orders.

"Good, sir." Herman hurried over, and sat himself before Demian.

While Demian immediately straightened his sitting position. His piercing gaze toward Herman, made the man suddenly flounder, whether he made a mistake or.....

"You know why I called you here ?" demian's words immediately disperse Herman's prejudices.

"I don't know, sir, is this a performance issue during my move to this office ?" sahut Herman guessed.

As a marketing manager he feels his job is fine at the moment, even better than his time at the previous branch office.

"No." Demian insisted.

Herman seems confused, is this a problem about what happened at Ricko's school yesterday. But, it's not that the problem is over.

"When did you get married ?" demian said, again his speech disperse the daydreams of Herman.

"Eight years ago, sir." said Herman doubtfully.

He was still confused as to why his boss was eager to know his personal life. Whether there is no job or it is a procedure for employees who just moved to his office, I don't know.

Demian is seen tapping his fingers on his desk, if they have been married for 8 years, it means that Ariana went missing with Herman.

Demian immediately clenched his hands, wanting to feel like he was beating the man before him. Having taken his Arian, they even had a child.

"What a little boy...."

"His name is Ricko, sir. Again I apologize, because the incident at school yesterday to make Miss Olive so hurt." Herman cut, now he can understand the direction of the conversation of his superiors.

It seemed that the boss had not been able to fully accept about yesterday's events.

"So your son's name is Ricko ?" ask Demian to make sure.

Really he still hopes that Ricko is not the son of Herman or Ariana and Ariana is still single as before.

"True sir, Ricko is also very sorry for yesterday's incident and because he thought about it he is now sick." said Herman sadly.

Given how this morning Ricko had a high fever and what made him feel so sorry, every little boy who was sick was always delirious calling his biological father.

"Sa-sickness ?" Demian looked cringing.

Hearing that little boy was sick, why suddenly his heart was not calm.

"True sir, Ricko could at least hurt his mother and he felt so guilty that he immediately made her have a high fever." said Herman.

"Because since childhood only his mother....." Herman had not finished his words but suddenly the door to Demian's room was knocked and it was not long before Victor came inside.

"Sorry sir, you have been waiting for the board of directors in the meeting room" said Victor.

"Gosh, I forgot." Demian immediately got up from his seat.

"Well, you can go back to your room. For yesterday's problems, I assume it's done." he continued, staring at Herman.

"Okay sir, thank you." said Herman who has now also risen from his chair, after which he rushed to leave the room of his superior.

"No need." said Demian, what to investigate again instead of they are really a married couple.

Without responding further to the words of his assistant, Demian immediately stepped out of the room.

"Why are you so afraid of the reality, sir ?"

Victor seemed to sigh as he walked to follow Demian behind him.

Throughout the meeting, Demian somehow seemed agitated. His mind was on a little boy who his father said was sick.

Had he gone too far with Ricko yesterday, because several times have snapped at him without hearing his explanation first.

"Sir, is there a problem ?" whispered Victor who seemed to be standing next to his superior.

"I have important business, you just continue the meeting." said Demian, then he immediately rose from his chair.

After that he left the room without a word and Victor could only sigh at his disappearance, because again the boss gave his job to him.

Now Demian just followed his heart and here he is. In a small alley, where Ariana lives.

"How can I let you go before making sure you're happy or not."

Demian seemed to be scooping his face violently, after which he decided to get out of his car.

8 Years he was looking for the whereabouts of the woman and he still hoped that her wait would not be in vain, even though the possibility of being together was very small.

With a definite step he walked down the small alley, for a moment he was stunned when he saw Ariana was busy serving buyers in her small shop.

"Gosh, the salary I gave Herman wasn't small. Why would he let his son and wife stay in a house this narrow and what would he do? selling cookies? god damn it Herman, don't blame me for taking it from you."

Demian looks very furious, he thinks Ariana's life is fine. Moreover, her son went to school in a fairly elite place and it turns out that the woman is still working hard, even though her husband is a manager.

Mm-hmm...

Demian seemed to cleared his throat when in front of the Ariana shop, making Ariana immediately raised her head to look at him.

The deg!!

"Demians ?"

Ariana gasped, how could the man know where he lived and this is what he was most worried about. His current life, which is fine with his son, will be disturbed by the presence of his former lover.

Especially if Demian finds out that Ricko is his son, he will definitely take his son from him.

Ariana quickly stepped into her house, but Demian immediately blocked her arm.

"Release !!" ariana shouted with a hateful look.

Instead of letting go, Demian pulled Ariana's arm until she fell into his arms.

Comfortable that is what Ariana currently feels, really she expects a hug like this since 8 years ago.

A hug from the sturdy arm of the man he still loved so much today, a hug that not only gives a sense of comfort but also protection from all the difficulties of life that he lived for 8 years with the son.

"I miss you so much." whispered Demian with a rumbling chest.
