Make Me His Substitute
For the Last Time
Shortly after the departure of Amara and Rendra, Aga appeared to approach Anjani bringing drinks for herself and Anjani.
"This," said Aga, handing over the drink to Anjani.
"Thank you." Anjani accepted it and sipped it.
Aga let Anjani enjoy his drink first and finally invited the woman to come home.
Anjani who actually still wants to linger alone with Aga was forced to agree because he did not want to make Aga so uncomfortable because he asked too much.
Yes, since the beginning of entering the night market area Anjani has been asking for too much Aga. From starting to want to ride the rides of games that are very unwanted by Aga to ask Aga to queue up drinks for him.

"Anjani, I've kept my promise to you for a month now to accompany you wherever you want. For the next time I can no longer accompany you when you want it because I don't want our closeness to be misinterpreted by many." Aga said after his car drove on the highway leaving the night market area.
"Why are you talking like that, Aga? Why do you care so much about the opinions of others? You weren't like this before." Anjani replied with a restraining dislike in her heart to hear Aga's request.
Aga looks straight ahead while remembering the many opinions of colleagues or employees who think he and Anjani are in a relationship to see their closeness lately. "I'm just lazy to be preoccupied with a lot of questions from people out there." Answer Aga.
Anjani could not believe just hearing it. He believes there are other reasons that make Aga take the decision as it is today.
"Well, but that doesn't mean you don't want me to take you sometimes, right?" Ask Anjani.
"I'll think about it later." Answer Aga.
Anjani smiled wryly at the reply from Aga. Since long ago until now Aga always acted as if he did not understand if he really wanted to be close to Aga and wanted Aga more than just friends.
"Do you want to stop by first?" Anjani Tawar.
Aga shook his head. "Other times. It's been so night."
Anjani nodded her head understandingly then got out of the car after saying thanks to Aga.
Aga immediately drove his car out of the yard of Anjani's house after Anjani got out of his car.
"Dear, I'll always find a way to keep you company with me like I've been lately." Anjani muttered while staring at the departure of Aga's car.

Aga pulled his car over on the side of the road right under the street lights. He exhaled a rough breath in the air as the shadow of Amara being alone with Rendra again flashed in his mind.
A notification that sounded from his phone made Aga immediately pull out the phone from his pants pocket.
After turning on the phone screen, Aga saw a notification if Amara had just shared her story on her social media account. Feeling curious, Aga just opened it and saw the story that was only a few seconds ago shared by Amara.
In the story that Aga saw clearly Boomerang Amara and Rendra faces filled the screen of his phone. There is a sense of dislike that rushes in the heart of Aga to see the video of the proximity of Amara and Rendra.
"They're this close?" Aga muttered with a face that was getting colder.
