Handsome Ceo's Secretary of Choice
Chapter 79. Will We Be Together?

Apparently, in the previous chapter no one has given a correct answer, yes. So his name I didn't write here.

Not yet Khanif had time to eat it, Khanif was astonished by Rania who suddenly stood up from her seat. Khanif then puffed up to see Rania with astonished eyes.

"Why you?"

Without answering Khanif's question, Rania's hand was stretched out so nimble, she then exchanged her food for Khanif's instant food. To make Khanif jumped in shock and unconsciously stood up.

"Hey, my food."

"Udah did not need to be baffled," said Rania brushed off the hand of Khanif who was about to take his food back. Rania then looked at Khanif with a look that did not want to be denied.

Surprisingly, Khanif who usually did not want to be denied, even followed Rania's speech. Even Khanif according to him when Rania put away his hand which was already holding his cup mi.

Rania then smiled at Khanif and said, "father just eat my food, it's healthier."

"You're not saying that instant foods like this are not good for health. Why did you change my food?"

"If not papa at all. So we're tukeran food. My father ate my home-cooked food. I eat fast food, father. After all, I haven't eaten noodles like this in a long time" Rania said casually as she regained her seat, followed by Khanif.

"This must be your wits, right, let you eat my delicious noodles."

"Now! This is for the sake of the health of the father," said Rania accidentally even made Khanif to highlight a smile of pleasure.

"Thank you."

Rania sees Khanif in wonder. "For what?"

"Because I've been paying attention to my health."

Rania suddenly choked for no reason. Khanif who did not expect it, immediately opened the lid of Rania's drink bottle and gave it.

"Thank you" Rania said after drinking.

"Why can you choke?"

"Not knowing." Rania shrugged her shoulders not knowing. Of course, he wondered why he could choke. He was neither eating nor drinking. "Here you go, you eat, don't ask too many questions."

"When not why?" khanif said that was actually joking, but Rania responded seriously.

"Then I don't change our food."

"Oh, no. .. no. the food you have given cannot be returned."

"Eat him."

"Well, miss Rania," Khanif said, making Rania laugh.

They started to enjoy their own food. As long as they ate, no one opened a conversation between them. Even they were impressed to eat alone, deserted! No one accompanied. Like their romantic lives.

Yeah, without them knowing each other. Ever since Rania was rejected back then, her romantic life has been shut down. It's like you don't want to fall into the same circle. It is not that Rania equates other men with Khanif who might also reject him. It's just that, there really is no other man who is able to attract the attention or heart.

If those who see him close to Zaky, really Rania only considers Zaky as a friend only no more. He can be close to Zaky because the man has helped him many times since the time of college.

Until one day he realized, if he should not always rely on the goodness of others who always take care of him. So, since the decision was made, Rania also began a diet by eating regularly coupled with the rarity of eating seafood so that her face does not become ugly due to the many small mountains around her cheeks and eels.

But strange magic bin, even though Zaky has helped him escape the problem several times, not the least Rania looked at Zaky with another figure, like the figure of a man who had previously rejected him. Honestly, he considers Zaky only as a level brother and a man who used to help him.

Yeah, he just thought of it that way, nothing more. But one he did not know. He doesn't know how Zaky feels about him. Whether Zaky only considers himself as a younger brother who needs to be helped every problem or consider himself as a woman in general in the eyes of men.

I don't know, until now Rania does not know, because since she became acquainted and close to Zaky, she said, Zaky never once alluded to their obscure closeness or rather not too close like a lover, not too far for a friend.

Zaky also never revealed a word that could make a woman's heart become flowery. Not once though. Even if Zaky asks her out, Zaky just says casually to her. Like not hiding something she meant.

Meanwhile, it was not much different from Rania. Since the khanif rejected Rania in the back garden of the school, Khanif has never been close to a woman again except for those closest to him. Although many women openly show interest in him, Khanif instead behaved as usual, even impressed cool. But not always Khanif will behave like that.

If there was a woman who really just wanted to be friends with him, then Khanif would welcome them with his warm smile. But if the woman wants to have more of a relationship than friendship, then Khanif will retreat regularly so that no one suspects that he has changed in the women. He will even immediately fence himself with that cold and indifferent attitude when the women have realized it.

Really, he was just being cold-cloak to women who thought they wanted a relationship more than just friends. But if not, he will always smile and help those who need his help.

It's not that he's picky friends, it's just that he doesn't want to re-harm a woman after Rania. Really, that kind of feeling always haunts him. Especially if he accidentally makes a woman tear up because of his rejection.

He had even promised in his heart that Rania was the last woman he made to cry because of her rejection. Because Khanif did not want the same incident to happen again to other women. For this reason he always fortified himself by behaving like that. He always rejected even the delicate woman that mom always introduced him to. He refused so that the woman would not expect more from him.

But somehow Tasya, his high school friend and one of the women you introduced to him did not understand that he only considered Tasya from the past as a friend. Khanif even showed his rejection on the first night they met at his restaurant. But it seems like Tasya did not give up either.

Khanif gasped in shock, as Rania waved her hands in front of her face.

"Mother why?"

"It's okay. You're done too."

"Hem, I feel so full that it seems like I have to sit here for a while." Rania then continued with a joke, "may you not cut my salary."

Khanif chuckled in response to Rania's joke. "If you don't sit here for an hour, everything will be safely under control."

"Well, I'll sit here 59 minutes past 59 seconds."

They also laugh together. Really, they look nothing like superiors and subordinates. But it looks like ... like .. ah, that's it, until whenever the relationship seems like it won't be achieved.

"Alright, it looks like I have to go now. Thanks for the lunch."

"Thank you back."

Khanif stood up from his seat. He then started to walk away from Rania alone. When Khanif started to reach the entrance of the office, someone first opened the door.

Seeing Khanif standing in front of him, he just hugged Khanif. Rania who saw the sudden incident was only able to turn her face in the other direction.

...To be continued...

May the like, vote, comments and other support be given health and smooth sustenance by Allah, aamiin 🤲

Hayo, can anyone guess who hugged Khanif? if anyone answers right, I'll be up again today. The spirit answered yes.
