Handsome Ceo's Secretary of Choice
Chapters 105. It's Too Late
"No mama has said that there's something you want to do don't delay!" said my mother with a high voice. "You heard me, son!" mama said back when mama did not find sahutan Khanif.
Instead of directly answering, Khanif instead reflexively kept his phone away from his ears while rubbing his ears slowly because he was surprised by the tone of his voice. After a while, Khanif brought his phone back to his ear. "Yes, ma. Khanif. It's very clear."
"Because, my mom doesn't want to know. You must finish your mother's wish immediately."
"Ma, it's all meaningless. Clearly Zaky has proposed to Rania."
"Basic brat. Before Rania's son is taken to Penghulu, you can still try. What a hard thing, trying!"
Khanif dizzy thinking of the wishes of the mother. Really, he can't do as his mother wishes. In any case, he would not do anything that would make him sink too deep.
It's good that Rania understands her feelings. Lf it doesn't? It was the same if he was embarrassing himself. Let your mom get upset with him this time. Sooner or later you will understand what it means.
"Khanif will see later" Khanif said at the end. "Ma, Khanif already yes. Khanif wants to continue to eat fruit."
"Hem. Anyway, you think about what mom said."
"Yes, Khanif will think. All right, assalamualaikum."
"Getishalight."
Khanif continued picking strowberry until the basket was almost full of fruit. Khanif stopped him and rushed to his car. Sometimes he is seen returning a smile when the workers greet him or smile at him.
Arriving there, Khanif put a fruit basket in the seat beside him. Then he went around the car - got in the next door and started running the car to the inn so he could get ready before he went home. Remembering the word home, he should be prepared to listen to a long lecture from mama.
It's not that Khanif doesn't like it when mama gives him advice. It's just, often times mama spoke at length but Khanif could not accept it. Like my mom said about her future.
As Khanif was busy with his own thoughts, his phone rang again. His hand was stretched out to take handsfree and put it to the ear and his gaze was focused again on the road he passed.
"Yes, ma."
"Listen from Davina, you came home this afternoon."
"Yes, ma. This is Khanif again on his way to the inn so he can get ready."
"Home home, right?" ask mom to make sure. Because, since Khanif bought his apartment a few months ago, Khanif has rarely lived at home. It was also Khanif stay if Khanif was homesick with mama's cooking like a few days ago.
"Yes, but only for a moment."
"Loh, that's it. You know, mama wouldn't agree if you bought that apartment." Mama grunted angrily and pursed her lips at the end.
"Not Khanif. But Khanif was intentional because the apartment was close to work. So all the Khanif's work is easy."
"Mama knows. But at least, do not make the apartment as your main house. Duh, this kid. Mama's just pissed off."
Khanif.
"Alright, mama will come to pick you up at the airport. Just let me know when you're leaving."
"You don't have to bother, Khanif can be alone."
"No! Anyway you just wait for mama and don't forget the infokan with mama. All right, mama fuck it up. Mama's going to the office first."
"Mama will ...." Not yet Khanif solved the question, mama had already disconnected her phone first. "What do you want to come to the office?" khanif said complete his words even though his phone with his mother is no longer connected.
The head that was originally fine suddenly turned sore. His hand was stretched out to massage his temple for a moment. It seemed like he had to rest even for a while, before he prepared his suitcase and returned to the hometown.
***
Mama had just arrived at the office when she saw Rania come out alone. I don't know where Rania's going, but Mama didn't wait long to call her. Hearing someone mention her name, Rania circulated her gaze looking for a familiar voice in her ears.
"Tante," said Rania when she found out that Mama Adelia called her. Rania feels familiar. Rania is approaching. "Tante, how are you?"
"Alhamdulillah good. How's Rania?"
"Thank God be good too, tan. What does aunt need to be here? Who knows if Rania can help."
"Son Rania is very understanding. Aunty here because you want to convince your aunt to go to the airport."
"Aunty is out of town?"
"Religious. This is aunt's son coming home today. Well, aunty would pick him up, but aunty alone if there. That's why aunty ngajakin you let aunty have a friend to talk when waiting for her to arrive."
"Sir Khanif came home today?"
"You weren't told the same?" mama Adelin asked, making Rania speechless while displaying a knotty smile. Because, why did Khanif tell the time of his return to Rania?
"Son Rania!" call Mama Adelin while shaking her hand in front of Rania's face that does not respond to her question.
"Yes, tan."
"You're a friend, aunt."
"God willing, tan," said Rania made Mama Adelin smile.
"alright. Then auntie comes home first. Aunty will come to pick you up again."
Rania nodded. Mama went from there and returned home - preparing Khanif's favorite meal. While Rania suddenly became not confident to meet with Khanif. Although there was Mama Adelin with him, but somehow he felt strange if he went to pick up Khanif at the airport later.
He hoped that his sudden application video with Zaky would not reach Khanif. Really, he no longer knew what to behave like. Does he have to pretend not to know or show a face that is always smiling? Those two options did not make Rania calm down.
"Ouch, gross. Why even stay here! Must be mad, mbak may be angry," said Rania realized that she was being asked by May to buy him brownies and coffee drinks. But when meeting Mama Adelin, Rania became forgotten and instead stayed silent to think about her attitude later when meeting Khanif.
As soon as possible Rania again stepped her feet towards her destination. When Rania reached the brownie shop across the street, someone called her again. Rania wondered why people call her name today. Again Rania turned around and found a woman was on her way.
"Hi, Ra. Want to buy some brownies, too?" ask Tasya.
"Yes, brother."
"Congratulations. I did not think that you would go ahead of me," Tasya said to Rania who had been proposed earlier than him.
"Sister could have. If you want, I can know a friend. Let us be the same," said Rania with a small smile. Let him judge Tasya a little today.
"Well, I have someone. Just wait it out."
"Why don't you guys start?"
