Behind the door of Khanif's slightly open room, someone listened to their conversation unexpectedly. He initially wanted to go to Khanif's room to invite Khanif to have lunch with him. But not yet he turned the door knob, his steps stopped when he heard the name he knew called. It was as if he did not accept it would be like this.
Lisa, who was new from the restroom, frowned suspiciously when she saw a woman standing at the entrance of Khanif's room. Lisa then walked slowly without making a sound approaching the woman she did not recognize. Arriving near Lisa, Lisa held her shoulder to make the woman successfully jumped in shock.
"Who are you?" lisa asked squinted her eyes as the woman had turned to her by rubbing her fierce rumbling chest.
A few seconds later, the woman introduced herself. "I'm Tasya, Khanif's friend."
Without being polite to the woman who was also not polite before, Lisa instead asked while folding her hands in the chest. "Do you have an appointment?"
"No. But if you were to announce my arrival, Khanif would want to see me" he said as usual 'confident'.
Lisa who knew that the woman in front of him had high self-confidence, even insinuated. "Hem, don't be confident just yet. Not necessarily, Mr. Khanif would accept this disrespectful guest."
Tasya was infuriated by Lisa's words just now.
"Ok, let's see. If Khanif wants to see me, surely you will get the stone later," Tasya said in his heart with a smile forced on Lisa.
Tasya then challenges Lisa to tell Khanif about her arrival here, so Lisa knows how important Tasya is to Khanif.
"Try me first. Who knows Khanif wants to see me" Tasya said.
"Alright, you can wait for me here" Lisa said without telling Tasya to come inside Khanif's room.
Lisa knocked on Khanif's door. After hearing a voice from inside that said enter, Lisa also stepped into Khanif's room.
"What's wrong?" ask Khanif.
"There was a woman outside the father's room named Tasya asking permission to enter."
Mama who heard Lisa say Tasya's name, immediately went to the entrance of Khanif's room.
"Son Tasya!" mama didn't expect to see Tasya here.
Tasya who turned her back to her mother at first turned her body. He pretended to be surprised to see her in front of him at this moment.
"Aante! Aunt is here apparently."
"Yes, son Tasya. It's a real coincidence. Oh, aye. Let's go in, son. We'll have a chat inside, "please take mama with Tasya's hand to follow her inside.
Tasya who looked at Lisa unintentionally gave Lisa a mocking smile. He was about to tell Lisa from their gazes that, Lisa was nothing compared to him.
Lisa who knew the meaning of Tasya's smile just now was of course upset. He even clenched his hands on his side.
"Sir, then I'll leave" Lisa said.
Khanif. Like Lisa, Tasya opened her voice.
"I'm sorry I came all of a sudden to your office, Khanif."
"What's wrong. You can sit on the couch with my mom. You two talk alone because I still have another job."
"Yes, son Tasya. Let's go to the sofa. We talked there."
Tasya nodded. He followed my mother's footsteps. Arriving there, Tasya sat near her and began to talk warmly with her as if Tasya had known mama Khanif for a long time.
Though if said, Tasya only a few days to know mama Khanif, if only mama from Tasya did not bring him to the reunion of classmates in high school first.
"Son Tasya. What's the need to come here?"
"Is that. Aunty also came here for aunty's lunch together."
"Well, it just so happens that dong tan. How about if we eat together," asked Tasya enthusiastically.
Of course Tasya enthusiasm is not kepalang. Who tries who doesn't like to get 'buy one free one'. Already got the heart of mama, surely soon Tasya can also get the heart of Khanif. Knowing that, made Tasya smile happily in secret.
Mama who had thought earlier replied with no interest.
"It could be Tasya's too."
Mom came here to take her kids to lunch together. But not just two, but mama will also invite Rania to come to lunch with them.
But what is this? Like a dream in broad daylight, Tasya came and destroyed my plan very quickly. It's not that mama thinks of Tasya as a woman who destroys people's plans. It's just, mama does not like if the plan that has been arranged in such a way so damaged with just a few words from Tasya.
Actually mama wanted to tell Tasya the truth, if she had other plans. But seeing the facial expression that Tasya displayed, made mama powerless to refuse her invitation. I don't want my mom to accept that invitation.
Mama thought she still had the next days to come. He is also free to come here anytime. Who can forbid a middle-aged woman who owns this company from coming here until her wish is achieved? Of course there isn't. Except Khanif who might get tired of seeing it, if it keeps coming here and disrupting his work.
"Live a few minutes more tan," Tasya said intending on an office break by looking at the tiny, circular watch on her white, clean wrist.
"Yes son. Wait here, aunt samperin Khanif first."
My mother also moved from her seat. Knowing the mama who approached him, made Khanif loosen his head to look at mama.
"Mama, what's the need?"
"Still long? It's about to take a break!"
"A little more ma." Khanif again saw the sheet he was examining. Then he again loosened his head, "if you want, you can go first. Share the lok later. After the Khanif affair is over, Khanif will follow suit."
"Ngga no share lok-an. Anyway you should come to mama's lunch on time even though your work is still there."
"Ma .. okay, Khanif try."
"Don't try dear, but done. Don't you want to see your mom happy?"
"Of course I will."
"Well, right on break, we'll go to lunch together."
"Yes ma. If so, Khanif continued to work again."
Mama nodded. He went back to Tasya talking.
Shortly after the employee break arrived, Khanif cleaned up all the files scattered on his desk. Then, with a slow step, she approached her mother.
"Ma, let's go. I'm at lunchtime."
Mama and Tasya stood up from their seats. Then they walked out of Khanif's room. Next, they walked towards the glass elevator. The elevator was reserved for Khanif and his family only. However, considering Tasya went with her mother, Tasya also entered the glass elevator.
The elevator slowly went down one floor to the other. Up to the next floor, Khanif's eyes were met with a pair of beautiful eyes. Both eyes were equally surprised. But had not had time to disconnect eye contact, the elevator was back down.
