Loosely Paid, CEO Beautiful
Jealous

I'm jealous of the rain

That falls upon your skin

It's closet than my hands have been

I'm jealous of the rain

Arka began singing in a cafe where she often sang. Facing towards the cafe visitors and also his wife who sat at a table.

He was not feeling jealous, like the meaning of the song he was singing. It's just that it was included in the list of songs given by the cafe owner, for him to sing that night.

I'm jealous of the wind

That ripples through your clothes

It's closet than your shadow

Oh, I'm jealous of the wind

Amanda smiled as she sipped the drink in front of her. Arka asked the woman to accompany him, and Amanda was not much work. The twins are guarded by Lastri and Anita.

Cause, I wanted you the best of

All this world could give

And I told you when you left me

There's nothing to forgive

But I always thought you'd come back, tell me all you found was

Heartbreak and misery

It's hard for me to say, I'm jealous of the way

You're happy without me.

Maybe for both, the meaning of the song is not in contact with them. Amanda and Arka are in a calm and happy phase with their marriage.

Even though so many storms have hit their households for almost two years.

But for others, especially for a girl who sits in the corner of the cafe. The song means a lot, because it's the same as what he's feeling. Yeah, who else if not Cintara.

The girl is now in the same place where Arka and Amanda are. Even from the place where she sat, the girl could see Arka and Amanda clearly.

His heart was burning with jealousy, wanting to get to Amanda and douse her face with the drink she was holding in her hand. But it was impossible for him to do, considering this was a place he often visited. He did not want his name on the blacklist and could not see Arka appear for the next.

***

At the same time, with the song playing, Ryan was sitting quietly on the balcony of his apartment. A few seconds ago he had just seen Arka's insta story, which wished his stepfather a happy birthday.

And on the next slides, Arka displays many photos of her being with the man. The caption he made was full of emotion.

Arka said that her stepfather was one of the most important people in her life. Besides his wife, son and mother. He also posted a photo of Arka being born and carried by his stepfather.

There is also a photo of the time when Arka first entered school, his stepfather was also the one who drove the young man. Ryan could only sigh and try to let go of everything.

Just like the meaning of the song that is being played by Arka, he is jealous of the circumstances that occur. Throughout his life, he has been busy in the business of pursuing property and all things luxury in it. His hard work paid a lot for it.

He was never short of money, could set up a large international company. But the one thing that was missing in him was time. Time with his own children.

Although he was used to taking care of Ansel since childhood, plus there was Nino. But he is not as good as Arka's stepfather in taking care of children. Ryan's time is spent on the job. In just a moment, he could pay attention to Ansel as well as Nino. The rest of the children grew up on their own.

Ryan doesn't even have many photos of his two children together. Not like Arka and her stepfather.

While on the other hand, it was still at the same time. Not to mention that the song sung by Arka was over, Amman was already sitting pensively in his study.

Long before he sat in silence in that place, he had experienced an unpleasant event. Because for a few days Vera did not enter the office, and it happened without confirmation or any reason.

He realized that Vera was angry with him, for his abusive treatment at that time. Until she went on strike, she didn't even open the door when Amman came.

Amman is so confident that Vera depends on him. Until not a single word of apology came out of the old man's lips, to muffle the problem. She let the pregnant woman get angry with her. The woman was pregnant with her child. How far he can go, thought Amman.

But then, he was really shocked. Because he had to see Vera who was delivered by Ryan to the obstetrician. He almost made a fuss by going to Ryan and getting angry at his business partner and rival.

But he remembered that they were close to a partnership, and after all Amman suddenly got a call from Fritz. About the charming Maureen and stabbing her maid with scissors in the room. Be Amman forced to choose his problem with Fritz first, in order to secure Maureen.

Now that everything was done, he remembered Vera again. His heart was burning with jealousy, just like the meaning of the song now sung by Arka. How could that woman dare to betray him.

"Braaac."

Amman then threw his phone on the floor, until the device was scattered.

"Hi dear."

Arka approached Amanda, when the song "Jealous" was finished playing. It was the last of the 8 songs he was asked to sing. Arka kissed Amanda's lips and sat by her side."

"You haven't ordered a drink, Ka." Amanda said later.

"Well, I want a penny." Arka called the cafe waiter and ordered a drink. Shortly after, the drink he ordered arrived.

"No fussy kids?" ask Arka while stirring the sugar at the bottom of the glass, using a small spoon.

"No, Anita said again on TV. I'm video calling too, they're funny."

"Watch what they are?" ask Arka again.

"Watch Diego."

Arka laughing.

"I used to watch Dora." said Arka.

Amanda chuckles.

"Koq you laugh, don't you ever watch Dora?" ask Arka again.

"Ka, Dora appeared. I'm so big."

"Oh yeah, yeah."

"I'm Doraemon the spectacle."

"Well, that's a 90-year-old kid."

Amanda grin.

Suddenly a notification came into Arka's phone. Amanda saw the message.

"Mother Maureen?" ask Amanda while frowning.

"Yes Maureen's mother." said Arka.

"Oh, I thought you named Maureen's contact "Maureen's mother". Just got mad, me."

"No." said Arka, smiling.

"Why is his mother?" ask Amanda again.

"Maureen Nanyain."

"Why Maureen?"

"No idea, Man. The kids said he said."

"Came on?"

"Yes, no messing around. Cannot be on the phone, wa, and others. Sosmed also has not updated for a long time."

"Ear at home" Amanda said.

"Yes." said Arka.

"What do you say to her mother?"

"Yes, I said I don't know, my guy doesn't know where he is now. That day I squirm at your papa's house."

"Against the holidays, Ka. It's a lot of money."

Amanda joked, as if she had nothing to do with Amman.

"Maybe, make a caper doang times." Arka laughed and sucked the drink. Their conversation that night continued.
