HEENA
CHAPTER 28. Ask to be friends.
Heena who was still surprised by the man who gave him a tissue was Aldebaran, he was again surprised when suddenly his wrist was held by Aldebaran then took him to walk to the nearest Cafe.
Which happened to be next to the bakery there was a cafe, Aldebaran brought Heena inside and then to the roof top at the Cafe.
There was actually no intention of bringing Heena inside the Cafe, but after Aldebaran saw some people talking about Heena as the woman fell in pursuit of the car that Aldebaran knew, he was in, he felt pity and wanted to protect Heena from people's talk.
Now the two have sat facing each other with the table as a barrier.
The cafe waiter showed me the menu paper, Aldebaran ordered two avocado juices and two chocolate pudding. The waiter went to get the order menu.
Heena who heard the menu that Aldebaran ordered, her heart was moved, even very moved when the man she had once left just for the sake of mother's request, now ordered her favorite food, even Aldebaran ordered two, he said, as he often did, it must always be the same.
Both of them were still silent, no one wanted to open their voices.
Heena suddenly heard a voice she had not heard for a long time calling her name.
"Heena?" Aldebaran looked at the woman who was currently sitting in her front seat, her eyes still wet marked the woman was still crying and had not lost her sadness.
"I'm disappointed."
Al don't continue, I can't afford to listen to the honesty of your heart, inner Heena cried.
Heena also stared at Aldebaran's face which was staring at him intensely.
If Aldebaran said disappointed, it was a sign that the man felt a very deep pain, Heena knew very well how much love Aldebaran used to have for him, which he firmly destroyed in an instant.
"But I can't hate you, there are two reasons ..." Aldebaran let out a long sigh before resuming his words.
Does that mean you will forgive me Al?, only able in the heart.
The conversation halted when the cafe waiter came to deliver the food order.
After the cafe waiter left, Aldebaran drank his juice, Heena also followed the juice, he felt his throat dry, inexplicably talking to Aldebaran together like never before, of course it must be different because it used to be her lover and now it is her boss.
"Why is your face so tense, just relax." Aldebaran looked at Heena while chuckling.
Heena just grimaced showing off her neat teeth.
"The first reason is because you were forced into marriage by your mother .. and now you're a widow."
Hearing Aldebaran's words, Heena nodded, now she knew the reason the man did not hate her but did not know the man's next plan.
Aldebaran sighed, now he turned to look at the sky which soon changed the night, mega red in the afternoon makes the beautiful color of the sky.
Heena found a smile on Aldebaran's lips, as the little smiling man looked up at the sky, his nose getting more and more pointed as the man turned to the side, his eyes in the ocean, his eyes in the ocean, who was currently looking towards Heena.
And now the man was sitting in front of him, not changing in the slightest, still caring, still Aldebaran who he used to know.
His heart was also sick and tight, unable to change the fate that had happened, at this time Heena only wanted to correct his mistakes even though at this time his position was only an employee in his office.
"I'm sorry, Al," she said softly, wiping away her tears.
"I forgive you, long before you apologize, I'm just disappointed."
After the conversation just now, the two went back to silence each other, wallowing in each other's thoughts. Now that the time had pointed at half-seven p.m., the sky turned dark, changing the lights that lit up adorning each place.
After a few minutes of silence, Heena wanted to have something to ask, Heena looked at Aldebaran who was currently looking the other way.
"Al."
"Heena."
Returning silent, the two did not expect to mention each other by name at the same time.
"You go first." Heena locked up her intentions first, and allowed Aldebaran to say what he wanted to say.
Aldebaran sighed while looking the other way, sighed again and stared in Heena's eyeball. "From now on we're friends, forget what happened yesterday, and let's just say we're new."
With great difficulty Heena wanted to say yes, her tongue was a hoax, it was like a dream, a dream that changed her bad destiny for the better, but her heart was as strong as possible to pressure her not to flower just yet, Heena made sure of what she heard.
"You're serious, Al?"
"Two geniuses, aren't we now a team in the world of work, and that means having to improve each other lest anyone hate, because D. A. Corp built a family, not an enemy." Aldebaran smiled a little.
Team work, yes team work, murmured Heena in heart. Somehow his little heart had a sad feeling when it was clarified his status as a work team.
Her selfish thoughts wanted more than that, but Heena realized that being considered a friend was much better, smiling Heena hid her sudden sad feelings.
"We're good friends."
"Deal." Heena and Aldebaran shaking hands.
The deg!
After shaking hands, Heena felt her heart racing, her cheeks warm, Heena rubbed her non-itchy nape, smiling like a misbehavior.
No need to wait more night, the two decided to go home, Aldebaran drove Heena home until he reached the yard of Heena's house.
Heena smiled as she waved at Aldebaran before the windshield covered her slap face and drove her car away from the courtyard of Heena's house.
