OLD LOVE HAS NOT YET EXPIRED
CLBK~19

A few minutes earlier …

No, this can't be allowed. Mentari cannot be the same as Juan. You can be anyone but not him. I need to be able to prevent them from getting closer!

Zio turned his brain, while being led by Helena to the car he continued to think of ways to keep Mentari from being with Juan. Though it is no longer his business because he and Mentari are long over. But Zio can't, everything he deals with Mentari should know. Either since when he became a kepo with Mentari affairs and maybe since they met again or since earlier he kissed Mentari's lips.

It still feels the same and when remembering the incident, Zio wants to repeat it again but his opponent is not here.

"Zio, why are you daydreaming all the time? So aren't we dating?" helena asked who noticed Zio just staying by her car. He was about to enter but he saw that Zio was silent so he rebuked him.

Eh?

Zio was slightly jolted by Helena, because he kept daydreaming Mentari, so he did not realize that they had reached the car. Zio shook his head and threw a smile that made the women look at him.

"Ah no, I was remembering that I forgot my appointment with a client and my best friend from Barcelona. If our date is postponed first it's okay, right? I really forgot that Lionel came to see me today," asked Zio with a face made to make a glass and did not forget he covered his face so that Helena immediately agreed to his wish.

Helena sighed, a little disappointed but she could not contain Zio because they never restrained each other and freed each other to do anything.

"Alright, but please take me to the boutique yes," said Helena finally relented.

Zio smiled, "Definitely dong dear. Again sorry yes," said Zio then excitedly he went straight into his car.

But along the way Zio became upset because he actually lost track of Mentari. Inexhaustible, after delivering Helena to the boutique, Zio immediately asked one of the division managers in his office to find out where Juan was. Thanks to his help, Zio finally knew where Juan was and he soon followed.

Arriving at the restaurant in question, Zio walked over and looked for their whereabouts. He had seen Juan's car, it means he did not have the wrong address. The restaurant was quite crowded and he had difficulty finding them until he finally decided to follow some people who came out of the side door towards the back of the restaurant and finally he saw Mentari and Juan were seriously talking.

Zio did not want to be late, he did not want Mentari to be with Juan and quickly approached them and grabbed a chair to sit together in their midst.

Currently ….

The atmosphere became so awkward as Zio's presence in their midst. Mentari and Juan looked at each other, if Mentari felt uncomfortable bint annoyed with the arrival of Zio, then Juan actually felt awkward.

Soon enough, Mentari and Juan's food orders arrived. They then looked at Zio who had not ordered any food. Juan himself did not dare to ask this superior.

"Sir Zio, would you like to order some food?" ask the Mentari. It would be very unethical as well if they ate while Zio became a spectator.

Zio rubbed his chin, he seemed to be thinking when he was not thinking at all.

Seeing Juan's behavior, Mentari became upset herself. He was hungry but Zio actually made him have to be patient to eat existing food.

"Juan, we should eat immediately and let Mr. Zio think about the food he wants to order. If we have to wait, our food will be cold. Mr. Zio now you please order food. It is not our fault if we eat first, we have been here since," said Mentari. He may not care about Zio's whereabouts here, but he sees Juan's awkward attitude Mentari so unwell and immediately asks Juan to eat only.

Seeing Juan still awkward, Mentari took the initiative to eat first. Seeing Mentari who was so greedy eating his food made Juan also eager to eat his food immediately. As for Zio, he was like he was not considered by these two people. He has no food and if waiting for a meal order the possibility of Mentari and Juan is almost done. But if he doesn't order then he'll just be a spectator.

Zio was annoyed and quickly pulled the Mentari plate and the spoon that had just entered the Mentari's mouth. Juan and Mentari are shocked, especially Mentari who is now staring at Zio upset because his boss and ex-lover is enjoying his food.

"Sir, that's my food you know," Mentari reprimanded half irritated.

With his mouth still full of food Zio also said, "Oh Tar doang food, it was also a time when we were still dating was common 'we eat a plate together, share food. How are you sewot now? It's common, too, isn't it?"

Mentari's face reddened hearing Zio's words, he glanced at Juan who was also glancing at him. It was clear that Juan's gaze was full of questions and curious about the intent of Zio's words just now.

"Yes, Mr. Zio just eat," said Mentari relented, he is more concerned with Juan's current feelings than his food. Mentari suddenly lost his appetite after Zio said about their past.

You fucking Zio! She's why the hell? My appetite is gone now and why should he talk about our past. He was on purpose or what?

The sun can only grumble in the heart. He notices Zio eating and Juan who looks like he has no taste for his food anymore.

Mentari sighed, it seemed like Juan was getting more and more awkward towards Zio. He is worried that Juan will stay away from him if he finds out he and Zio are ex-lovers. Mentari does not want if his closeness with Juan will stretch because of Zio.

In the middle of that silent atmosphere, the waiter came to deliver Zio's food. Zio just stared at the food lazily. He had gotten Mentari's food and he was sure Juan would have been surprised to find out he and Mentari had been in a relationship.

Looking at Mentari who had just put down a drinking glass filled with water that was only half, Zio quickly picked up the glass and gulped down the water. Mentari and Juan again gawked.

"Hey! Why does Mr Zio really like to take mine anyway? Are the foods and drinks you ordered bad? Then why ordered? You know, eating using the same spoon and drinking in the same glass is the same as kissing indirectly, sir! I don't want if we both have a–"

"Ck! Why do you like to sing so much, Dance? You forgot, instead of this morning we kissed in my room. Do you forget or do you want me to remember?"

The sun stood up and unexpectedly he slapped on Zio's cheek. The loud noise made some restaurant visitors stare at them. Juan was no less surprised by the actions of Mentari just now.

Zio smiled wryly, he bit the inside of his cheek without glancing towards Mentari. Zio knows he has gone too far but he also cannot control himself when he sees Mentari and Juan together.

"You're really outrageous. If you want to fire me because I slapped you, please and I don't care. It would be better if I became unemployed than working again with a CEO like you. You dick!"

Mentari soon passed from that place, he had stopped to pay for his food and drinks and then he left again with his cry.

While at the dining table, Zio stared dislikefully at Juan while Juan just stared flat at him.

"Lu! Never approach her again. He's mine, and you don't be a usurper like–"

Zio hung up his words, it would be better for him to go and catch up with Mentari to apologize rather than deal with Juan.

Juan looked at Zio's back who was starting to move away. He smiled wryly as he said, "Sorry, but I also like him and you're just his ex, Zio. I'm sure Mentari will be mine. You don't deserve to be with such a good Mentari while you're nothing more than an asshole!" muttered Juan, then he stood up from his chair about to leave the restaurant.
