"There's something I want to tell you," Khanif said immediately making Rania look at him.
Then unplanned, Rania answered, "what is it?"
"It's likely that in the next few days I won't take you to lunch together again or pick you up to go to work together."
"It's not good that way! That way, roommates or office friends, will not see me with a strange look. This is it, I go first to the parking lot of my father's car, so that no one knows," Rania made Khanif wonder in his heart.
Is it so scary to ask her to have lunch with him, that Rania doesn't want to be seen walking with him?
Khanif is like a dilemma. He did not want to make Rania feel uncomfortable about her existence around him. But if not, he cannot show that he is truly sincere to get his heart. He just wanted to tell me that Rania can see the sincerity of her heart in pursuing him. Can't it?
"Why are you silent?" tanya Rania breaks Khanif's momentary daydream.
"What's wrong. Then you wait here first. I'm gonna pay for it."
"Wait, sir."
Rania also wanted to take the money in her sling bag, but when she had fumbled, she did not find the whereabouts of the bag on the right and left side of her body.
"Ouch!" grunts in the heart. "Definitely missed in the desk drawer."
"Why?"
"My bags are left at the office, sir."
Khanif smiled slightly. "What's wrong. Think of this treaty as my gratitude because you accepted my invitation to have lunch together."
"Ba .. okay."
Khanif went to pay them their meal money.
"Mom here is our food money, the return is for mother only," Khanif said, giving the money in red.
"Nak Khanif thank you," the canteen's mother said happily. He continued by asking, "son Khanif wants to go home?"
"Yes, mom. Khanif entered his office."
"Then, Khanif and Rania are carefully on the road and don't forget to take another walk here."
"Yes, mom. Then Khanif goes home first. Assalamu'alaikum."
"Wa'alaikumsalam."
After that, Khanif returned to Rania, then invited her to go home to the office later.
During the trip, Khanif and Rania were mostly silent. They seemed to have no conversation after the conversation while in the cafeteria.
Even after arriving at the office, they remained silent and separated in the car park. Not because of Khanif's will, but all that Rania will.
***
Hours to get home from work soon. Rania who has finished her work also began to clean up her work desk. Starting from tidying up the marks on his desk, until the pen he has used.
He put it back in its place. So that the next day, when he needed all that, he did not need to look here again, let alone borrow it with his other friends.
When the time has shown at five o'clock exactly, he turned off the computer in front of him and all other devices. Only after everything was finished did he return to wearing his bag, and then began to move from his seat.
Not yet Rania stepped foot into the elevator, Dian who just finished cleaning called her name. Of course he turned back and looked at Dian.
"What's wrong?" tanyakanya.
"Have you heard about the workshop?"
"Workshop?" rania Beo.
"He'em, yes. Have you heard yet?"
Rania shook her head slowly at the sign of not knowing the news about the workshop.
"I was last afternoon in the news with May if this week, it was the turn of the finance division that will hold a workshop in the city of B. We were there for two days last night. So we're leaving Saturday morning, then coming home next week."
"Emm, that is," Rania's response was brief. "alright. Thanks for the information. Then I'll go home first, yeah."
"Aren't you not taking the vehicle, Ra?"
"Hem. Ja. I'll take a cab or car online."
"Why not the same Mr. Khanif. Maybe Mr. Khanif wants to go home too,"
"Maybe he's busy at the moment. At that time he said that in the next few days, he would not take me to lunch first," said Rania as powerless, but able to make Dian giggle amused.
"I'm what you mean?" rania asked, pointing at herself.
"Who else? I have David."
"Basic bucin. I'm the gini in ledekin too," said Rania again made Dian giggle amused.
"Eat, Ra. So the woman has to be flexible. Now you're sorry, no benefit of lunch with Mr. Khanif."
"What a shame, even I was free from the look of jealous eyes that saw me close to Mr. Khanif."
"All right, we'll see tomorrow and a few days ahead. Hope you have an appetite for lunch."
"Hopefully."
"But why I'm not too sure, yes," said Dian made Rania look at him with a maniacal lips.
"All right, I'm kidding. Gih go home there. Maybe Mr. Khanif has been brought to wait for you to come home together."
"So you deliberately call me and talk carelessly to give time to Mr Khanif waiting for me in the lobby?"
"You could say so."
"In ..," whined Rania like a child.
"I'm kidding."
"Hem. All right, I'll go first."
"Be careful on the road."
"Ok," said Rania while frightening the thumb finger and terejuknya form a letter o.
He returned to the employee elevator. For what reason he uses a glass elevator, if in the end the person he wants to avoid is even in a glass elevator as well.
Rania walked into the employee elevator. Once there, he pressed the elevator button. After waiting for a while, the employee elevator finally opened as well.
But the person he wants to avoid is even in it, leaning on the elevator wall with hands folded in front of the chest. And do not forget, the gaze of his sharp hazel eyes is now looking at him as well.
"Why not go in?" khanif asked when Rania was just glued to her place.
"It's new, sir," she said awkwardly, and Rania stepped into the elevator.
Don't ask why Rania feels awkward, if they're alone in the elevator.
Rania said in her heart, "this is the same as avoiding plan has failed." Rania then chose to stand some distance from Khanif.
"Why are you standing in the corner once?" khanif.
Not even Rania had time to answer, the first employee elevator was back open.
The employees on the fourteenth floor also flocked in to make Rania rewind himself to near Khanif.
"If it's fate, so as far as it goes, it will certainly be brought closer too," he said slowly with a smile.
Rania who was very close to him certainly heard the words of Khanif clearly. He even had a look and had seen a smile that appeared on the face of the other woman craved it.
He said quietly and replied, "You're overconfident."
Khanif laughed until he made the employees in the elevator turn their faces towards him at a glance.
Rania of course became misbehaved, in contrast to Khanif who did not care about their existence.
Arriving at the floor, Rania rushed out of the elevator. Khanif who knew that Rania was avoiding him, just caught up with him as soon as possible.
When he got near Rania, Khanif said again, "I'll take you home. Come." Comehere."
Rania shook her head.
"May-tomorrow I may not be able to drive you home either."
Rania fell silent.
"I will often overtime at the office later," he explained later to make Rania inevitably follow him.
