Dania was pacing indeterminate direction in front of her superior's room. He was worried between knocking on the door or not, after all, he had to explain the reason he continued his lie yesterday.
Dania had already swung her hand towards the door, but for the time being she had abandoned her intentions. His hand only ended up hanging in the air.
"Hey."
Dania turned her head as her shoulder was patted from behind.
"Well?" ask Doni who just arrived with a pile of maps.
"Kepo," the sewot then just passed back into place.
Doni just stared wryly at the young girl's departure.
"Based on a strange girl" he murmured.
He chose to go into Devan's room to submit the file.
In the room....
Devan was in a mess with his mother who suddenly called him, when he was busy with his work.
"Yes, Mom. Later Devan will bring you what you asked for," said Devan.
"Yes, Van. Don't keep your promises! This is your promise, but it has never been kept. Mom gave me a week. Tomorrow's weekend you have to take her in front of Mom" said the crisp voice of the woman across there.
"Mom, already, yes. I'll do a lot of work and I'll call again" Devan concluded.
Without waiting for his mother's answer, he simply turned off the connection.
Devan cupped his face with both palms. He was really dizzy, his mother asked to be brought immediately to her future ghost candidate. And he was given a deadline of a week.
"Loe what's up, Van?" ask Doni who is already in the room.
"My head is dizzy. Mom asked me to bring in a candidate for tomorrow's weekend" Devan explained.
"Yes just carry the hassle," said Doni lightly.
Devan immediately threw a pen towards his male friend.
"Loe if you don't want to give advice mending diem. Loe's mouth makes me dizzy" Devan said with annoyance.
"Now, let's triple dizzy loe." Doni placed a stack of maps in front of Devan.
"Hufft, where's the boss, anyway?" devan asked with his face.
"He did not go in again to take care of his bunting bin."
"Cepet work! This afternoon should be on my desk" Doni continued, mimicking Armand's style of speech.
"Mending Loe back to loe's room. Eneg I saw loe's face," expel Devan.
Not stepping out, instead Doni landed his body weight on the sofa of the room. One of his legs he piles on the other. The man acted as if he was a big boss.
"Work! Don't eat a blind paycheck loe," sewot Devan.
The mood this morning was really bad.
"Yes, later. Uh, I just saw secretary Loe pacing indistinctly in front of the loe room," said Doni.
"Dania?" Devan.
Doni nodded his head.
"What else do you want that weird girl?" muttered Devan.
"Is he still not satisfied dragging me into his troubles?"
"Loe's got a problem with secretary Loe?" Doni who heard that started to kepo.
"Gue is made into the same collision as a girl."
"Well! Tumbles, no way, right? Such a pretty girl is cheating. What is his salary as a secretary less? Oh, I'm terrified, I'm." Doni kept parroting, occasionally he also shuddered in horror.
Devan flicked his finger as an idea flashed through his brain.
"Gue has a solution to my problem. Time for revenge." The man grinned.
"Loe's got a problem what the hell loe's secretary is." Doni's curiosity was at the peak of the highest level.
"Repo...."
Doni just grunted in annoyance.

"Dania immediately to my room" Devan said through his intercom.
"Yes, sir."
Dania tidied up for a moment her appearance, after feeling enough. He immediately headed for the room that was right in front of him.
The woman came in after she got the approval from inside.
"Can I help you, sir?" ask Dania.
"Sit down!"
Dania said, sitting right across from her boss' desk.
"I want to talk to you about something."
The young girl frowned confusedly. "What, Sir?"
"I want you to pay for what you've done to me, for some time now." Devan looked seriously at the woman in front of him.
"Oh, well, I'm willing to cut pay. How much did you ask?"
"Not with money, but with deeds" Devan said with an intense look at him.
Dania gulped roughly, in her heart wondering.
"What does he want? Perhaps, he asked me to serve him on the ranja*g like the novels that the cave had read. If it is, BIG NO! I'll refuse hard."
Various bad thoughts raged in his mind, until the sound of the baritone managed to resuscitate the girl's daydream.
"Dania, are you ready?" devan asked in a loud voice.
"Eh, yes, w-what, sir?" The girl stuttered.
"I talk long and you don't listen" said Devan.
Dania only showed me a row of white teeth.
"If you're willing, it can be repeated, sir."
"I want you to pretend to be my future wife in front of my parents."
Dania gaped in disbelief, is this a dream? Answer's no. He felt pain as he pinched his small hand.
"Are you ready?"
Dania was silent for a moment. "Maybe this is the right way, so that I can pay for my actions, so I no longer need to feel guilty" he said.
"Well I'm willing," he said steadily.
"Good! Tomorrow's weekend, you I'll see mom." Devan smiled with satisfaction.
"So fast?" Dania.
"Yes, because my parents had already urged me. The deadline is only until that."
"Alright," he said resignedly.
________________
The planned weekend arrives. Saturday morning, Devan's car was parked in the yard of Dania's house. Before long, Dania came out in her casual suit. Knee-length floral dress, shoulder-length hair deliberately in the booth with small pinch accents and natural makeup make the girl look very sweet.
Devan was stunned with a different appearance from his secretary figure this morning.
"Sorry, make you wait for a long time."
Dania's words managed to draw Devan's consciousness from her admiration. He cleared his throat slowly to neutralize his feelings.
"No. Quick in! The afternoon was a little jammed," he said in a cold tone.
Dania nodded.
Along the way there was silence between them. Neither Dania nor Devan had any intention of opening the conversation. Devan is focused on the steering wheel, while Dania is busy looking at the scenery that is out there. The sound of the song in the car, which accompanied their long journey.
After traveling for two hours, finally the car that Devan drove entered the yard that was not too wide. Simple house by sharing the types of plants decorate the yard, adding to the cool atmosphere of the house.
On the porch of the house appeared a middle-aged woman waiting for the arrival of her son, even she stood up when her son's car was parked perfectly in the yard.
"That's his mother's father?" ask Dania.
"Yes." Yeah."
Hearing that, Dania crept her fingers. Don't know why? Suddenly, he felt unusually nervous. Like going to meet the prospective in-laws, even though this is just a charade.
"Come, get off" Devan asked.
Dania held back the arms that were about to open the door.
"Why?" ask Devan.
"S-I'm scared," Dania's great-grandson.
"It's okay, my mom's good. After all, this is just a play" Devan said calmly.
"I, i.... Afraid caught." Dania was an alibi, but that's not it.
He was really nervous and scared, like the fear of a woman who would not get the blessing of her partner's parents.
"You wait here" Devan said before heading out.
Devan opened the door for Dania, then gently grasped the girl's cold hand. Dania had a gasp treated in such a way by her superior, her heart beating violently.
"May Mr. Devan not hear it" he whispered inwardly.
"How long is it, Van? I can't wait to see my daughter-in-law." The arrival of Devan and Dania was immediately greeted with her mother's nagging.
"Any! Beautiful my daughter-in-law. Pinter you choose," praise Sekar, Devan's mother, "your name is a beautiful child?"
"Dania, Ma'am" Dania replied politely, then she kissed the middle-aged woman's hand.
"It's beautiful, polite again, complete package.Yuk, come in, mom has cooked a lot. You guys must be hungry, right? Long journey." Sekar took over the hand of Dania who had been in Devan's grasp.
He also led his future son-in-law into the house. And Devan followed two other women of that age without a word.
"Eat first, we'll talk."
Enthusiastically, Sekar serves his future son-in-law, starting from taking rice and side dishes.
"No need, Mom. Let me alone, it will be troublesome," said Dania who felt bad.
"Oh, it's okay. This is the mother's happiness, finally Devan brings his candidate home."
Dania looked at the man who was across the street, while the one who was stared at only responded flatly.
There is a happy and unbearable feeling that Dania felt when she saw the treatment of Sekar to her. Happy because he feels the love of a mother again, not the heart because he has lied to women as good as Devan's mother. He would not disappoint the woman.
Lunch with lunch was very quiet, there was only the bang of a spoon and fork clashing on the plate.
After the lunch was over, the three people gathered in the living room to familiarize themselves with each other.
"Dania what college work?" Just start the conversation.
"I'm Mr. Devan's secretary, ma'am," Dania replied politely.
"Ooo, the story is good. How long have you been dating?"
"We're not dating" Devan said flatly.
"Loh! How come?" Sekar was quite surprised when he heard his son's answer.
"I mean, we're not dating, Mom, but a serious friend." Dania immediately explains, so that Devan's mother does not suspect.
"Oh, you're this, Van. Almost made mom a hanger. So, how long have you been close?"
"It's only been a month, ma'am," replied Dania again.
The woman cursed her boss in her heart, why is it always her answer, while Devan was like a living mannequin.
"If your parents did what, Dania?"
"My father and mother are dead, Mom. I live with my brother" Dania replied slowly.
"Gosh, sorry I don't know," said Sekar felt bad.
Dania smiled. "It's okay, Mom. I've been sincere."
"You're patient, same with him. Devan is indeed his son like that irrit talk, even impressed not to care. Originally, he was kind and loving, really," Sekar said as if promoting his son.
"He's a mother's encouragement after his father's death. When Devan was ten years old." Sekar reminisces about Devan's father.
"So, when are you going to formalize your relationship? Don't slow! I've been stuck wanting to carry a grandchild."
Devan and Dania stared at each other, both confused as to what to answer.
