“Today I overtime,” Gita said on the phone.
“You intentionally did you give me this hour? I came home early today, not late. Now it's home,” reply Arki who can't hide his annoyance tone.
“No really, really. I just finished a meeting just now, didn't have time to call you to tell you overtime. After this I still have to do my unfinished work.”
“Emang can not be continued tomorrow?”
“Can't do it. I have to finish today. Later the report even stacked tomorrow-tomorrow. You want me to stack up the work and keep going overtime?”
“Efficient and effective work. Don't gossip. So the work is not complete, right?”
“Sok knows you! His job is much more. Now you want the end of the year, preparation closing.”
“Yes, what time are you done?”
The thing Arki hated the most when allowing Gita to work was having to agree to overtime for closing at the end of the year. One of the inevitable cycles of accountants. For now Arki will tolerate it. He will also be back busy in the near future in preparation for the next quarter audit.
Arki parked the car in an open parking lot, then went down while carrying a Starbucks cup holder to the lobby. The building is deserted. Only a few floors have lights still on.
“Night, Sir!” said one of the guards intercepted Arki's step into the building. “Eh, Mr. Arki. The feeling has not been here for a long time,” he continued turned friendly after looking at guests who came to the building was a person he knew.
“Night, Mr. Agus. How's it going? Still the night shift? Not changing?” arki said kindly while shaking hands with Agus. They look very familiar.
“Replace every 3 months, Sir.”
“Pantes. I never saw Mr. Agus shift in the morning, fitting nganterin wife every morning here.”
“Pak Arki married Miss Luna? How do I not know?"
“Not. I'm the same Luna broke up a long time ago. But my wife works here, new employee.”
Agus invited Arki to wait on the sofa in the lobby. They continued to talk casually while drinking coffee and sharing stories. Things that often do Arki also when picking Luna home after overtime. That's why Arki knows some guards who stand guard in the office.
The elevator door clang for a moment and then opened. The female and male figures seemed to be telling stories while laughing out from there. Looks familiar and dissolves in chatter.
Arki immediately stood up from the sofa and approached the two people who were busy chatting. His expression could not be covered, looking unhappy. Gita spoke and smiled like that to other men upset her. In fact, if with him, the woman just put on a pouting face. Adversing.
Gita's laughter and smile instantly receded when she saw Arki approaching. She didn't think her husband was in the lobby. Gita thinks Arki will be waiting for her in the car at the drop off spot as usual. His heart was like it was about to surge from its sockets, while staring at the dark expression of Arki.
Finish, Gita!
Arki must have thought he was being close to Tama, heeding all his rules about interaction with male colleagues and superiors that Arki did not like. Though Gita was only a little friendly to her teammates, there was no way she and Tama would not talk to each other.
It looks like Arki will get angry and misunderstand. His day had been bad enough and hectic due to his encounter with Luna as well as the endless work. Now the Gita is not looking to arouse Arki's anger.
“You've been waiting a long time?” gita was nervous.
Arki immediately grabbed Gita's arm to get closer to her. “Hmm ... Appreciable. Let's go home!” reply brief.
“Oh this is her husband Gita. I'm his direct superior, Tama.” Tama tries to be friendly with Arki and get acquainted.
Sometimes at times like this Tama's hospitality is even very annoying for Gita. He may not realize that Arki looks very unhappy with his existence. Gita alone could see her reluctant expression while trying to shake Tama's hand.
“Oh yes, I again talked about the same gathering plan some combined divisions in Marvelook. It is likely that we will not attend the new year event in Lembang. Employees can bring their family members. It's free! You guys are coming, right?” say Tama with spirit.
“Ngak. Gita will not come,” said Arki quickly. Gita is immediately shocked by Arki's uncompromising answer to her. Gita was very eager to attend the event.
“Yeah, what a shame. Though the show must be exciting if Gita follow.”
“What do you mean?”
The elevator door clinks back and opens. Gita can see the figure of Luna who came out of there with someone she does not know. Suddenly, Gita panics and hugs Arki.
“Arki, let's go home! I'm really hungry,” said spoiled Gita.
Arki is aghast at Gita's unusual behavior. Suddenly behaved spoiled and hugged her like now. He also immediately say goodbye to Tama, continuing to hold Arki until they get into the car. Arki without protest followed suit. Even he was happy, now the road to the car with Gita was hampering him.
I don't know what Gita was thinking, so panic and do something like that to Arki. How humiliating! It sucks! Now Arki can't stop smiling at the steering wheel and staring fixedly at Gita.
It felt like banging your head against the dashboard of a car. This was all because Gita saw Luna who suddenly came out of the elevator. Somehow he didn't want Arki to see his ex. No, it's not because Gita's jealous. It's just that he doesn't like Luna. That'sthat's all.
“What do you want to eat, Git? He said he was really hungry,” said Arki while continuing to smile. He had only seen Gita's sweet attitude like this since marrying her. Arki was happy to see her spoiled and adorable like that.
Gita wants to grab her own hair, frustrated by the effects that occur on Arki due to the irrational behavior earlier.
“Steak,” replied Gita wry back.
Arki immediately drove his car to one of the famous steak restaurants in Jakarta. After parking the car, they got into Wolfgang’s Steakhouse and sat down at one of the tables, then ordered food.
The order came to their table not so long ago. Fried calamari, ribeye steak and mashed potato, Wolfgang salad, and cheese cake. Gita looks over the food ordered by Arki. All his life he had never eaten such an expensive meal.
She didn't expect Arki to take her to a place like this. Gita thought they would eat steak at the food court mall like Gita did on payday, to appreciate herself.
“Eat a lot,” soft Arki word. All her pity expressions were gone, all that remained was a beautiful smile that continued to curl on her face.
They should have continued like this. Gita should have seen this face from Arki throughout the marriage. But now he sees more of an angry and upset Arki. Why does everything feel so hard to do?
Gita stuffed a piece of meat into her mouth. The savory taste of the combination of soft meat fiber and fat that melts in the mouth is so delicious. When it bites its first bite, it feels absolutely unforgettable. Gita could not bear to smile after eating it. So this is what a rich man steak tastes like.
“Enak?” ask Arki who can't stop paying attention to the Gita's movements.
Gita nodded quickly looking pleased. “Hmm ... So yummy. I like it,” he replied cheerfully.
“Sorry yes I rarely invite you to eat out like gini. I like your cooking too much. Later we often go to eat out of kayaking now.”
The Gita does not pay much attention to what Arki says. He could not stop chewing with a smile. It seems that the rich can taste a little bit of heaven through very delicious food. It is only fitting that such people are vying to continue to be rich and stay rich. Who wants to give up one of the pleasures of the world as it is now?
Arki doesn't eat much of his food. Since then he had only looked at Gita who was very greedy and happy with the food at the table. The girl continued to praise every meal that was fed into her mouth excitedly. Glad to see such a cheerful Gita, Arki kept telling her to order another meal.
Since they got married, they have been fighting and fighting. What a tiring thing. He had forgotten how attractive the simple sweet smile of Gita was. Now she could see it re-engraved on her face, with a more beautiful and seductive version.
Arki seemed to have to pull his words about the Gita. This girl is really attractive and beautiful, especially when she is happy like now.
