Impotent: Passionate Rituals
Chapter 14 - Think of It as the Last Meeting

...༻◊༺...

The heart of the barrel is about to explode! How could she go to the same restaurant?

"Why? Did you see your acquaintance?" ask Arga to guess. He and Laras hide behind the wall.

"Not acquaintance anymore. But husband!" sahut Laras's. She was seen trying to peek at her husband. Laras felt increasingly panicked when he saw Hery and two colleagues sitting near the door to the balcony.

"Damn! I think we're stuck" said Laras, leaning against the wall.

"You mean?" Arga. He tried to peek. But Laras quickly stopped his movement.

"Don't try! They're so close!" Laras warned.

Arga looked around. He was trying to find a way out. The only way out is the door.

"There is no other way but the door" said Arga.

"I know!" sahut Laras's. Unknowingly, he clasped Arga's hand tightly together. The woman panicked. You could say he was in a stage of fear.

Arga breathes out of the mouth. He thought of a way to help Laras. Until a brilliant idea came to his mind. He immediately told Laras about it.

"Shut up here. You can leave when I get Hery to talk. Understood?" said Arga.

"understand!" Laras nodded.

Arga rushed to the door. But he immediately went back to Laras because he wanted to ask something more.

"Why are you back?" tymphal Barrel.

"You didn't say that Hery was with two people!" balas Arga's.

"You just calm down. Those two people don't know me. You just need to take Hery away." Laras holds Arga's shoulder. The man nodded and immediately returned to his plan.

Arga tried to walk straight and normal. His steps slowed down as he approached Hery's position.

"You! Aren't you Hery?" greet Arga while pointing the index finger towards Hery.

"You... Agni's husband isn't he?" Hery responds to Arga's greeting.

"It's true." Arga. He and Hery shook hands with each other. Hery even introduced Arga to two of his colleagues.

"Of course." Hery agrees. Arga invited him to a table away from the balcony door.

That's when Laras came out of hiding. He used a mask to cover his face. Fortunately, his escape went smoothly at that time. Laras snorted in relief as he walked out of the restaurant.

At the same time, Arga was alone with Hery. He was relieved when he got the message from Laras.

"So what do you want to talk about?" ask Hery.

Arga's eyes were wide open. He was certainly confused what to talk about with Hery.

"It's about... I mean..." Arga became convoluted because trying to find the right topic to talk about.

Hery's forehead frowned. He felt strange and suspicious.

"I mean I want to talk about your closeness to Agni. You guys looked so familiar yesterday. That kinda bothers me." Arga throws out topics that are not important at all. He never even once suspected Agni and Hery's relationship. Given their relationship it was obviously just cooperation.

Arga closed his eyes as he said so. He was sure he would be considered a jealous husband by now. Especially if Hery tells Agni about it later.

"Ah, really?" Hery looked surprised. He's getting uncomfortable. "I'm sorry if it bothers you. But my relationship with Agni was just a collaboration. Do I need to change other lawyers so you don't get distracted?"

"No! Don'tdon't. I'm just making sure. If it's nothing, then I'll believe it" Arga said, smiling wryly. "Yes already then. I want to go straight away. Sorry for making you uncomfortable."

"No problem." Hery tried to understand. He and Arga say goodbye to each other.

"Do you eat here alone?" ask Hery. Atensinya also can not be separated from the appearance of Arga that looks disheveled. Considering since last night he hasn't cleaned himself up and changed clothes.

"Yes. I'm out of the office." Arga only answered so. Next, he hurried away.

When he was in the car, Hery checked his phone. He received a new message from Baras. It just so happened that the woman had gone home first.

'Thank you for what you did. Sorry before, but I want you to assume our meeting was our last. Don't ever be interested in me, Raga. Let's do the ritual professionally.'

Arga gave a rude snort while reading Laras' message. He felt strange because he was disappointed by it.

"Alright, Arga! Barrel did the right thing! Stop being interested in him. He's just a stranger. You don't even know his real name!" Arga spoke to himself. From now on, he will focus on his personal life. Especially Agni who is also pregnant with her child.

"OKAY. I'll take that as our last meeting" muttered Arga. He also thought of not seeing Laras' face while performing the ritual again.

"I have to buy a mask" Arga said as he ran the car.
