My Life Partner [On Going.].
#7: Dinner Together

"Fring.. Cring.. Cring.", incoming phone call from Steven Chan..

Kevin then picked up his phone..

"Good evening Mr. Kevin?", Steven Chan said by phone.

"Good afternoon Steven.. If there's anything you want to say, straight to the point??" asked Kevin firmly

"Ok, I'll say it. Can you give me Ms.'s mobile number. Dara, she's your new secretary, not so I need her mobile number to make it easier for me in this business" said Steven Chan.

"Nn. Dara is not my secretary but she is my personal assistant, so I will not give you her mobile number" Kevin replied, silencing Dara with his hand.

"Ok, okay.. Then I'll invite you both to dinner" Steven Chan said.

"Alright, thank you, your boss" said Kevin and hung up his phone.

"What the hell is Mr Kevin??!!! But the one who just called isn't that like Mr. Steven Chan???", asked Dara curiously.

"The man who helped you earlier must be Steven Chan, right??" asked Kevin.

"Yes, but how did Mr Kevin know??!!! I haven't finished telling it???", asked Dara in surprise.

"You think I'm that stupid to know nothing!!! If I wanted to, I could find out about your past life as well as your entire family", Kevin said.

"But why is he so fluent in Indonesian? And you guys sound like you've been very familiar when talking on the phone earlier???", asked Dara more and more confused.

Dara was getting confused and trying to think hard about all those things, but it was as if her mind was getting tired and unable to digest them anymore.

"Have forgotten my question, my head began to spin thinking about all that, I want to go back inside" said Dara as she turned her back to Kevin.

"Hey, sleepyhead!!! Where do you want to go??? I'm your boss and I won't let you go" Kevin shouted.

"Geez I forgot who I came to this place with!!! Ish, you are a fool!!!", Dara's mind is anxious.

Inevitably, like or dislike Dara must follow orders from her Boss. The thing that Dara was very unexpected turned out by itself Kevin began to tell him about Steven Chan.

Dara just fell silent listening to the story of his boss about Steven Chan, where it turns out Kevin and Steven Chan are friends and business partners for a long time. Kevin also knows more about what kind of Steven Chan is always changing partners, so he knows what Steven Chan means to invite him to dinner.

"But it seems Mr. Steven Chan is not like that, he is very gentle and kind of course", said Dara amazed.

"Don't argue with me, I know better who he is than you. If you don't want to get entangled with the game, just follow my orders otherwise.!!!", said Kevin exasperatedly.

"Ish, you menace-man!!! Stuck with the game??? Changing partners??? What a difference with her own!!", Dara's inner wrath.

"Now that you wait here, I'll buy you ice cream" Kevin said as he left Dara.

"Based on a strange boss!!! Loving arbitrary orders, threatening like a criminal, but suddenly there is no wind and rain he will be good" Dara murmured as she shook her head.

After Kevin bought ice cream, he did not see Dara there, he only saw a pair of Dara shoes lying on the sand. With fear Kevin began to look for Dara's whereabouts, until it seemed from a distance someone Mother was screaming for help..

"Please.. Please..!!", cried one Mother.

Kevin immediately ran towards the sound of a scream from a mother who was on the beach. A mother looked very panicked, her face turned pale because a woman had managed to save her toddler son from the sweep of the big waves.

But unfortunately it turns out that the woman who saved her child even became drowned because she was dragged by a very large wave. So surprised Kevin when he realized that it turns out the woman who was drowning in the ocean is Dara.

Without thinking, Kevin immediately threw away the ice cream in his hand, then immediately took off his shoes, and his suit and then ran through the huge waves in the sea to save Dara.

So difficult Kevin grabbed Dara's body with these very large waves and with great difficulty finally Kevin was able to save Dara and bring his body to the mainland.

"Miss.. Miss, wake up, open your eyes!!", said Kevin frantically as he shook Dara's body on the beach..

But Dara has not realized as well, making Kevin increasingly anxious about his current situation.

There is no other choice, Kevin tried to give artificial breath to him, while Kevin will start to do it immediately Dara opened his eyes. His eyes opened wide when he realized Kevin was in front of him who seemed to try to kiss him back, spontaneously Dara immediately slapped Kevin's face with a bang..

"Plaaat..!!!".

Kevin's eyes were rounded because he was very surprised by the hard slap that landed on his face..

"Hii.. Miss what are you doing.???!!", said Kevin very surprised as he rubbed his face.

A Mother was surprised by what she had seen and then she immediately thanked Dara.

"Not thank you so much for saving my son, thank you once again".", said one mother, holding her child and then leaving them both.

"What happened to me.???", asked Dara confused as she sat down.

"You almost drowned and I saved you!!! But why would your thanks give me a hard slap???", said Kevin.

Dara immediately woke up from his seat and spontaneously he immediately rubbed Kevin's face with regret.

"I'm sorry Mr. Kevin, please forgive me.. I really don't know" said Dara feeling guilty.

"Just don't touch my face again, I've forgiven you. But why did you do that???!! Foolish, already know you can not swim but still desperate to help others without caring for yourself" said Kevin wrathful.

"Yes Sir.. I'm sorry.", said Dara regretfully.

"Today I was slapped by a woman. Huh, it hurts so much his slap!!", Kevin's inner grumble.

Dara was just speechless to witness firsthand her Boss' anger towards her..

"What are we gonna wear for dinner? Our clothes are all wet, because of your silly actions", Kevin said furiously while attaching his suit to Dara.

"I'm sorry Mr Kevin!!!", said Dara with his head down

"Have stopped saying your apologies, I have forgiven you" Kevin said.

In the evening, the room service officer sends a gift to Kevin and Dara in their respective rooms. After opening it turns out the gift contains a shirt suit and evening dress sent specifically by Steven Chan.

"Steven must have known about the incident this afternoon, so he sent this gift and of course the sleepyhead got a gift of a dress from him" said Kevin.

In a different room, Dara was very happy to get a beautiful gift from Steven Chan. When Dara wanted to try on the dress, her phone rang.

"Fring.. Cring.. Cring..".

Dara immediately picked up her phone and it turned out that the one who called her was Kevin.

"Good night.. Yes, Mr Kevin is there anything I can help???", asked Dara.

"Nn. Dara, if you're feeling unwell, it's better that I come to the dinner invitation with Steven Chan. I'll ask room service to take your dinner to the room" said Kevin.

"But Mr. Kevin, I'm healthy and fine.. I want to thank Mr. Steven Chan for his beautiful dress delivery", said Dara.

"No way, you should stay in the room resting. I'll give her your thanks later" Kevin said.

"But Mr. Kevin" said Dara.

"There is no objection whatsoever" Kevin said firmly and then hung up.

At the cafe hotel Steven Chan was waiting for the arrival of the two of them, but it turns out that only Kevin himself without Dara with him.

"Wouldn't it be rude to come to a dinner invitation from someone without greeting the host first" Steven Chan said.

"Is it important and should I do that to you???!! I think it's better we just talk about the point" said Kevin.

"Ok, this is what I like about President Director Kevin Abraham not to waste time" said Steven Chan as he poured wine in Kevin's glass.

"I like your personal assistant Ms. Dara" said Steven Chan.

"I've guessed what you want from this dinner invitation, but what you want I can't fulfill because of Miss. Dara's married" Kevin told a lie.

"What marriage??? No way, because there's no ring around her finger" Steven Chan said.

"Do you think all married people should wear rings and unmarried people should not wear rings??? Where are those stupid rules?!!!", said Kevin.

"At least it's a symbol for the married or the unmarried" Steven Chan argued.

"It's up to you to have an opinion on that, but I'd like to know if it's because of Ms. Dara the tender of the project fell into my hands???", asked Kevin.

"Haha.. You are too sensitive, my friend, this business has nothing to do with women" Steven Chan said, patting Kevin on the shoulder.

"It's precisely because I know who you are, so from the beginning I asked about it because it's not an easy matter" said Kevin.

"We've been friends and business partners for a long time now and tenders this project exactly if you handle it" Steven Chan explained.

"Ok, I think it's a very clear explanation from you" said Kevin.

"Also if I want Miss. Dara, I have my own way of getting it" Steven Chan said as he chugged at the wine he was holding.

"Can't, you won't be able to get it or have it, because Miss. Dara is mine and she is my future wife" Kevin said.

"I have to do this, so Steven Chan doesn't interfere with your life Miss. Dara", Kevin's inner.

"Ah.. Our conversation is getting serious, forget about that woman. Now we are partying to celebrate our cooperation" Steven Chan said, giving Kevin a glass of wine.

"Sorry Steven, I haven't had alcohol in the last 2 years. We celebrate this in our own way", said Kevin as he grabbed a soft drink.

When they rejoice in celebrating the party, Dara suddenly comes to surprise them both.

"Good night, Mr. Kevin and Mr. Steven Chan", said Dara smiling.

"Wow.. You're so pretty tonight, Miss. Dara, you look so good in the dress you wear" Steven Chan said, grabbing Dara's hand.

"Thank you Tn. Steven Chan", said Dara smiling sweetly.

When Steven Chan was about to kiss Dara's hand just as quickly Kevin immediately grabbed Dara's hand..

"Nn. Dara please sit next to me" said Kevin while pulling a chair for Dara.

Steven Chan's face looks very upset because Kevin is acting faster than him, especially when Dara is sitting right next to Kevin.

"Please enjoy dinner tonight Miss Beautiful" said Steven Chan.

"Thank you, Mr. Steven Chan, I finished dinner in my hotel room" Steven Chan said.

"Then what made you come to this place??" asked Steven Chan curiously.

When Dara was about to answer him, Kevin interrupted the conversation between the two of them.

"Nn. Dara wants to take me to the beach, to see the beach at night, not so Miss. Dara", said Kevin.

For a moment Dara fell silent and recalled what Kevin had previously told her while on the phone.

"If you want to keep coming to dinner, whatever I'm going to say in front of Steven, you can just say yes and don't have to say a lot of insignificant things in front of him. So don't forget about this because I warned you" Dara recalled inwardly.

"I-iya was right", Dara replied stuttering as she glanced at Kevin.

"Looks Ms. Dara is not well, do I need to take you to the hotel room to rest???" said Steven Chan.

"No.", said Dara and Kevin simultaneously..

"Wow, you guys are a really nice couple" Steven Chan said, applauding.

"Of now we enjoy this dish!!!", said Steven Chan back.

The three of them began to eat the dishes that had been served, but with a cynical look Kevin occasionally glanced at Dara and Steven Chan who were chatting.

"Nn. Is Dara really married???", whispered Steven Chan. Spontaneous Dara immediately choked with surprise when he heard a question from Steven Chan.

"Ugh, ugh..!!!".

"What's married??? Am I like a married person?!!!", said Dara laughing.

"Oh.. I expected it" said Steven Chan as he glanced at Kevin.

Seeing the two of them was very familiar, making Kevin seem to be becoming uneasy.. Then unconsciously Kevin began to chug a glass of wine that was on the table, sip by mouth. And from a distance it turns out Steven Chan was watching Kevin who was drinking alcohol.

"It looks like you've started burning Kevin Abraham" Steven Chan said in his heart.

"Oya Ms. When are you going to get married to Kevin???", asked Steven Chan.

"What wedding???!! With Mr Kevin???!!", said Dara very surprised.

Until he again choked and then fell silent because he could not answer questions from Steven Chan.

"What does it mean to ask like that??? I just ran away from my match!!! Then how can I marry Mr Kevin?!!!", Dara's inner self.

"Why silence??? Is the marriage just your boss??!!", asked Steven Chan with a sharp eye.

Dara was completely silent with the question asked by Steven Chan this time, but at the right moment Kevin pulled Dara's wrist..

"Let's go home right now, I just remember that tomorrow there will be a meeting with a client" said Kevin.

"Geez, Mr Kevin are you drunk?", asked Dara in surprise.

"No, I'm not drunk. Come on, pack up soon we'll be home tonight" said Kevin, holding Dara's hand.

"It's not good to drive while drunk" said Steven Chan and released Kevin's hand on Dara.

As if Kevin did not accept the treatment Steven Chan did against him, it finally made Kevin who was drunk to become inflamed.

Seeing this situation, Dara immediately grabbed Kevin's hand and then said goodbye to Steven Chan.

"Thank you, Mr. Steven Chan at his dinner invitation, excuse me", said Dara and left the place with Kevin.

"Kevin Abraham's.. You never change" said Steven Chan, sipping his drink..
