Just A Professional Relationship
Episode Thirty Six
Three days passed very slowly for Nadin. It was as if he had just passed through some very heavy centuries. However, this heart of his heart and mind was already much better. Even though he is still not used to living without the presence of his mother.
At least, Nadin had begun to be aware of the surroundings. He even started to feel guilty towards Axel who kept looking after him.
This morning, Nadin woke up early. When stepping out of the room, Axel seemed to still sleep on the sofa. From day one, the man continued to sleep in the same place. Even Nadin did not think at all told him to use the room that his mother had originally occupied. Surely Axel felt uncomfortable sleeping there, he thought.
Nadin was sitting on the floor, right in front of Axel's face which was still lulled in his dream. He looked at the man. A person who has sacrificed a lot for himself without expecting anything.
Nadin brought his face closer, and kissed Axel's forehead slowly. “Still yes...” whispered, before getting up and walking towards the kitchen.
Of course Axel was unaware of what was happening. He only had a beautiful dream, where Nadin, dressed as an angel, came to him. The woman was dressed all in white, with her wavy long hair that was as soft as silk. The beautiful figure also approached and gave a kiss on Axel's forehead that felt very happy. Then the angel left after saying thank you.
After that, Axel woke up. He was a little disappointed that his dream had to end. That dream was the most beautiful dream he had ever had.
Still not moving from his place, Axel began to hear a noise from the kitchen.
‘Do I still dream?’ tanyakanya. However, he realized that the fragrance he smelled was really real.
Axel got up quickly. Then look towards the kitchen behind him, and find the figure of Nadin there. I was busy doing things in front of the stove. Then the woman looked like she was brandishing a knife. Axel was surprised and ran over.
“What are you doing again?” saru Axel, while gripping Nadin—'s arm that grasps a knife.
Nadin was quite surprised by it. Then made confusion when he saw Axel's anxious face.
“I'm making breakfast again, Xel..”.
The brown-haired man became clumsy because of it. A few moments ago he thought that Nadin was about to do something stupid. But it was more accurately said to himself.
Axel immediately took off his cling. “Eh, sorry..” said. “Em, are you okay? Let me continue cooking.”
Nadin could only give in and smile. He let Axel take over, but stayed there to help.

After finishing the bath, Nadin stood in the middle of the house and surveyed the surroundings. He realized that his house had not been cleaned for a long time. The dust began to accumulate, and made him sneeze many times when cleaning the pile of cardboard in the corner of the room.
Just then, suddenly a cockroach flew up and directly charged towards him. Nadin spontaneously screamed and made things in cardboard fall scattered on the floor.
Axel, who was in the bathroom, was immediately shocked when he heard Nadin's scream. Without a second thought, he put on a towel around his waist, and ran out.
“Why you?” he shouted anxiously. Then found Nadin who was crouching not far from there.
But again the woman shouted, not because of the cockroaches, but this time because she saw Axel bare-chested.
Axel immediately panicked and went back into the bathroom. “Why you?” scream from inside there.
“Nothing. Just cockroaches,” reply Nadin. His face is a bit red.
Nadin just realized that it turns out Axel's body is very athletic. Previously it was fairly ordinary. But after a few months of not meeting, it was true that the man changed a lot. It seems like he started going to the gym.
This time Axel came out of the bathroom fully clothed. “Udah go his cockroaches?” tanyakanya.
“Don't know where.” is
Axel also helped Nadin tidy up the items scattered from the cardboard. He looked puzzled as he looked at the many papers strewn about. “This is what paper?”
“Oh, the song. I used to love the song lyrics.”
“Certain, not really made?”
“Still ugly ah.”
“Keep why kept, not dumped?”
“Hm. You see, everything has become like a diary replacement for me.”
“Looking at your eyes makes me aware. There was a different twinkle from his radiance as he looked at me from a distance. Makes the vibrations in my heart go. Until this leg unconsciously moves slowly.”.
Nadin immediately panicked when a lyric song he wrote when High School was read by Axel. “Ih, don't read!” he shouted, trying to take it. But Axel just stood up and held the paper up high, while still continuing to spell it hard.
“Axel! Balikin gak!” force Nadin who withholds shame. “Axel!!”
“About what?”
“Love?”
“What is your friendship?”
Axel directly held onto his chest, and said dramatically. “I really got friendzone ya...”
It made Nadin laugh, for the first time, after a rough day.

Nadin and Axel decided to look for fresh air outside the house. They went for a walk, and stopped by a cafe. Then actually continued their plan to make a song together.
Nadin was busy with pencil and paper. Record every lyric they have agreed on.
“Those words sound soft in the ear.”.
“It looks better than sounding.”
“By also.”
Nadin returned to writing quickly. “Adhesive in mind..”
“Abadi in memories.”
“Good tuh.”
When Nadin was busy with his work, Axel was not stopping to look at the woman while smiling. Nadin's face was back. No longer as pale and gloomy as before.
His pink lips also seemed to glow. Makes Axel never feel bored every time he looks at it. Especially if it is accompanied by a sweet smile. It was so tempting and made her unable to touch it. Feeling that tenderness with her lips.
‘Shelf!’
Suddenly, someone kicked down the table. Makes Axel a little surprised.
Somehow the story goes, Tyo suddenly stood there staring sinisterly at Axel. “Lha Bang Tyo. Come from where is suddenly here?!”
“Ya, from the door, lha!” reply to the glasses guy.
“Bang Tyo!” exclamation Nadin. He immediately got up and hugged his former manager.
Tyo's originally cynical face instantly turned very friendly. “You're better?” tanyanya while rubbing Nadin's head with affection.
“Iya. Thanks yes, Bang.”
When he had just arrived at the cafe, Nadin immediately sent a message to Tyo and invited him to meet there. But he forgot to tell Axel.
Tyo joined them both. Then back glanced at Axel with a face full of suspicion. ”What did you think earlier, ngeliatin Nadin to all?” tanyakanya.
“Hah? Wh-what, anyway. I didn't think of anything,” Axel replied rather frantically. As if worried Tyo could read what he had in mind.
“Awas you, if the same kind Nadin.”
“Quiet, Bang. Axel's safe, really. The proof is three years he is staying at home, I am safe,” Nadin said while laughing.
“Gak, can't. I have to stay at your house tonight just in case.”
“Apaan anyway, Bang. My people used to be daritadi.”
“What habits? Your face is like a perverted grandpa, you know?”
“Hah? Offhanded! Face handsome gini spelled like a perverted grandpa. Not wrong?”
Nadin actually laughed when there were two people who were fighting mouth in front of him. He felt very relieved because he was finally able to laugh without any burden. Just hope that things will continue to improve in the future. So that he would not need to feel the miserable days like yesterday.
‘Bu, I have a lot of people guarding here. So mom can rest in peace yes.’.
