Miss Alexa
Villa

As he entered the room, Mas Hans found his wife standing and staring out the window. Not usually after she gets out of the work house Zoya is still awake.

"Maybe the Ale incident is karma to me, Zoy! I was the one who forced you the first time." Hans said, hugging his wife from behind. The big hand was coiled around Zoya's small shoulder, making the tiny woman look up. Hans is sure Zoya misses Ale.

When she found regret in those sharp eyes, Zoya turned her body to face her husband.

"Perhaps, this is our daughter's path to finding her soul mate, Mas." replied Zoya trying to erase her husband's guilt.

"Karma does exist, but I wish Shakti all the best for Ale." Zoya smiled at her husband. His two hands were also coiled around the waist of the man who looked down at him.

"So did Mas Hans, who turned out to be the best mate God gave me" said Zoya by wiping her husband's jaw firmly.

"Let's just close the past story that is not good to hear." continued Zoya made Hans put a soft kiss on his wife's forehead. Zoya's. She is the one who always calms her feelings.

"To my beloved wife. Thank you for always apologizing in every one of my faults and caliphs." Hans murmured inwardly. The man looked up his wife's face with one of his index fingers with a slight bow of his body on the tiny lips that he always felt soft and sweet.

"Let time reduce our physical perfection. But it's time to make room for our feelings of love, Zoy." Zoya tightens her arms to the sound of a man's heartbeat that has become part of her life. It's not something Zoya used to hear when her husband spoke so sweetly.

As he had planned, Shakti and Arka began the journey towards Shakti's Villa outside the city.

"Why go to Villa. We can stay at the hotel, right?" asked Arka when she heard Shakti's order to go straight to the Villa. For Arka the distance of Villa and the new factory is quite far.

"Why? We're the ones waiting for them, right? At least forty-five minutes of distance." Arka was immediately silenced, if Shakti had looked insistent and it was not a problem for him eyes happened.

"If you are tired of driving, you can use an office driver or villa gardener. Mr. Agus can drive as well." continued Shakti with a smile. From Arka's heavy snort of breath, Shakti knew that Arka didn't approve too much.

"Please get to know the area." Shakti patted the shoulder of the man who is currently driving a range rover owned car.

"Yes-yes. Boss is always right." welcome Arka makes Shakti giggle amused. Shakti always insists on what is considered right.

The car began to climb and pass through the dipping road, the atmosphere felt fresher, many trees that grew so tightly to give distance to buildings that still look rare.

Arka looks so serious about driving her car, while Shakti still enjoys the beautiful atmosphere that she rarely meets. It did not feel like the car stopped at a field near a magnificent Villa.

"Let Pak Agus put his goods in" Shakti said before getting out of the car.

The man walked first to the villa to look for Mr. Agus. Yes, Arka also immediately followed Shakti by carrying a backpack that felt it needed to be brought now.

His steps swallowed when he saw a girl standing staring at every giggle of his best friend. The girl with a simple and plain-faced look continued to look at Shakti who stepped into the small building beside the Villa.

"Why see it like that?" arka's voice shocked Dinda. The girl immediately looks wrong when caught paying attention to Shakti.

"Oh. That's it, you're out!" said Dinda stammered. Arka felt astonished, since earlier Arka noticed the gaze of the girl who was fairly beautiful and innocent was not separated from the figure who had entered the villa first.

This is not the first time Arka has come here with Shakti. He was no longer a stranger to the two-story Classic building.

"Sir Agus is leaving. Said his partner who was tidying up the garden." said Arka when going up the stairs.

"Ohh... " Shakti immediately turned around to look for fresh air outside, "This is the warm tea, Mas." Dinda stopped Shakti's steps by carrying a tray of two cups of coffee, complete with cakes she had made before her guests arrived. Mr. Agus has indeed given a message to his daughter to prepare to welcome the arrival of the Villa owner.

"Ark.. warm tea." call Shakti when you see Arka has reached the top.

"I'm gonna take a shower, first!" answer Arka. The man did not see his best friend but instead noticed Dinda staring in admiration Shakti.

"Whose name are you?" shakti asked Dinda. Shakti began to sit down and sip her warm tea.

"Dinda." replied the girl who was still standing not far from Shakti.

"Yes, you can go. Later if Mr. Agus comes, ask him to drop off the goods in the car" said Shakti while staring at the screen of his cellphone.

"Good, Mas. Excuse me." replied Dinda. The girl stepped towards the side door of the liaison between the luxurious buildings was a small house that was on the side. But before disappearing from behind the door, Dinda had a chance to look back at the man who seemed to focus on the screen of his phone.

The girl was really admiring to the handsome face of Shakti. The nose is pointed, the skin is white, the eyes are sharp and the jaw is firm which implies its character is quite strong and attractive to the beholder. Dinda smiled, the girl who had already disappeared from behind the door scoffed at her admiration for her master.

"Why are you sitting there?" ask Laras when putting his ass near Alexa.

An afternoon that depicts a charming orange color on the western horizon makes Alexa remember someone who she had wanted to forget did not always fail.

"Why are these two days of my chest beating weird? Though I was well rested and here the food I ate was healthier." lamented Alexa, her strong chest murmur made her worry about her heart health.

"Are you thinking of someone?" guess laras. She felt Alexa still held a sense in the man who had lied to her and made her as sidelined as she is now.

"No, Ma'am. I'm just thinking about my family." Answer Alexa she always dodged if she still harbors feelings for Shakti. Alexa just concluded, if sometimes she thinks about the man, she just needs time to forget everything.

Such was Alexa the gentle girl with her strong will. Whatever has been the decision, it is not easy to shake it.

"Mbak has also felt love and longing" said Laras by nudging the arm of the girl who had been considered his sister. Silently barrel has also been saving if the girl he called Salma wants to go home to his family. He feels the best place for Alexa is indeed family.

"Mother..." The god came out of the house running. The handsome face of the boy seemed to remind him of someone but until now Alexa has not been able to answer the conjecture of his mind.

"Mother, the hungry God. Sama Uti (Bu Seno) is given roasted chicken. Uti himself is cooking, he said." said Dewa by pulling the barrel hand to follow him inside. The god did call Bu Seno with the name Uti alias Eyang Putri.

"Would you like to eat?" ask the Barrels on Alexa.

"Can." Alexa also moved from her seat following God and Laras. Since living in the village, Alexa has never eaten dinner. The limited lighting made their third meal scheduled for the evening.
