Other Dream Women
Chapters 13. Accidentally Meet

"Russia .... We can go to dinner together again."

Malika squealed in excitement as she returned to see all her family members being able to gather together. If judging from Malika's facial expression, it can be concluded if the little girl longs for this kind of togetherness.

The clouds deliberately invite all members of his family to dinner outside. As a form of apology for having forgotten the promise to pick up his two daughters and as an effort to convince Cahya that he was still as he was. Despite the fact that there is one other woman's name that she keeps in her heart.

In a luxurious restaurant in the center of this city, Awan seemed to prove that he was a good father and husband, who put his family together. The clouds and the rest of his family sat around the dining table that was already available. While waiting for the food they ordered to come, they also dissolved in chatter.

"Adek happy?" ask Cahya with a sparkling face.

Seeing his daughter happy like this also made his heart feel happy. For a mother there is nothing happy but seeing her daughters happy.

"Sure Mother because tonight we can go together. It's been a long time since we've had dinner together like this."

Cahya remembered very well that it had been four months ago the last time they had dinner outside. Precisely since many people invited Cloud to work together. Until the days of the man were busy with trips out of town.

"Then what about Brother? Is my brother happy too?" ask Cahya who she now refers to Alina.

Since the trip, Alina did look much quieter than Malika. Cahya and Awan's eldest daughter didn't seem so happy to be invited to dinner outside like this.

"Yes Bun, Alina is happy too" he replied with a flat face. It is very different from the youngest.

"But this father's daughter's face why is it still bent anyway? What's up, honey? Try telling me."

Not only Cahya, it turns out that the Cloud also slightly picked up a different signal from Alina's face. He thought that there was still something stuck in his daughter's heart.

"Alina just doesn't like Daddy's attitude of reneging on that promise, Dad. Dad don't know if Alin and adek to tired waiting?"

Hearing the child pour out all the grunts in the heart, making the Clouds can only smile thinly. He shifted his chair to get closer to Malika.

"One more time I'm sorry, honey. Earlier, Dad was really preoccupied by the guests who came from Semarang. To the extent that Dad forgot to pick up Brother and adek."

"But it's not all good. Said the teacher at the school, we can't break the promise."

"Yes Dear. I pleaded guilty."

"Please promise not to do it again. So that your children do not have a crisis of confidence in you" said Marni.

"Yes, Ma'am, the clouds promised. This is the first and last time the Clouds have done something like this."

"Goodoo. If you do it again, your children will be much more disappointed than today."

The conversation was interrupted when two servants approached the Cloud table. Politely they present everything ordered by the Clouds.

At the same restaurant but in a different corner, Mega seemed to be sitting alone. In front of him has been presented two special servings of beef steak complete with orange juice. Judging from the available dishes, the woman was like she was waiting for someone.

"Hi Meg, sorry I'm late. I just finished a meeting with the boss."

A beautiful woman with shoulder-length hair approached Mega who had first arrived at this place. The woman shifts the chair she has available and she lands her ass there.

"You're Mel's habit. I almost guaranteed you," said Mega while grunting annoyed.

"Haha ... I'm sorry, bestie." The woman named Imel began to sip orange juice in front of him. Until the sensation of freshness of the citrus fruit began to flow through the esophagus. "Oh yeah, tumben you invited me to dinner outside. What's the happy news?"

Imelda knew very well the character of her best friend. Mega will suddenly take him out for a walk or a meal if the woman is happy. Sure enough, because the hue of happiness was clearly visible on Mega's face.

"Let's know you're Mel. Today I'm really happy because I just got acquainted with the owner of the N3P expedition" Mega said as she sliced the beef steak in front of her with a knife.

"Owner of the N3P expedition? Isn't that the Atmaja Solar Cloud?" tanya Imel emphasized that what he meant was indeed as intended by Mega.

Mega's forehead is slightly wrinkled. For a moment, he put down his knife and fork. "Do you know Mel?"

"Oh like that? I thought you knew intensely with Mr. Cloud."

"Eh but wait." Imel leaned his body to get closer to Mega. "You said that today you are happy because you can meet Mr Awan?"

Mega nodded her head. "Yes Mel. Indeed why?"

"Well, well, well, may you not put your heart to the same Mr Awan?"

"Why would Mel if I put my heart on? Is something wrong?"

"You are Meg, you are worse" said Imel, shaking his head. "You know that Mr Awan is married and has two children?"

"Loh was just there Mel's challenge. Loving the man's husband makes our adrenaline so much more racing, hahaha," Mega joked.

"Don't you crazy Meg!" imel gave a warning. As a friend, he did not want if Mega fell into the wrong thing. "Making adrenaline more driven is not always by being a savings of people's husbands. You can ride a rollercoaster and I think it's a lot safer."

"I'm not crazy Mel. Precisely because I am sane, I know which men can divide me and which men can never make me happy."

"But the Cloud sir already has the Meg family. You want to be a thorn or a destroyer of other women's households?"

Mega raised her shoulders while smiling cynically. "I'll never be the destroyer of other women's households because that man loves me too, Mel. Remember, love is never wrong."

"But what went wrong was Meg's man. You're given the common sense to see what's right and what's wrong."

"Hmmmmm.... Nevermind Mel. I invited you here so you could feel my happiness. Not to lecture me."

Imel clucked slowly. If it's like this, it feels like no one can advise Mega. "Whatever you say Meg. But remember, just be prepared to get burned by the coals you created yourself."

Mega didn't really heed the message from Imel. The woman remained relaxed and was not affected at all.

The clouds headed for the back garden after coming out of the bathroom. In this place he wants to smoke his cigarette considering in the room the restaurant can not to smoke. On a wooden bench, Awan landed his butt.

The clouds exhale through their mouths, causing puffs of smoke around them. His eyes also moved around.

"Hmmmmm ... Quite comfortable also in this place, "the cloud monologue is soft.

Until in the end the male netra caught the shadow of the figure of the woman he knew. The woman was seen coming out of the bathroom which was across the place where she was sitting.

The clouds rise from their positions. He waved his hand at Mega. While Mega who saw someone waving his hand towards him, he strenuously looked at the man. How surprised he was when he saw the figure of the man he had just talked to Imel standing not far from his place.

"Mas Cloud?" pekik Mega's. Without further ado the woman approached the Clouds.

"You're here too?" ask the clouds.

"Yes, I'm having dinner with my best friend."

"Can we meet here? We didn't make a deal, did we?"

"Entahlah Mas's. It might just be a coincidence."

"Continue?" tanya Awan is embraced by Mega. "But it doesn't seem to be," he continued.

"What would you do if it wasn't a coincidence?"

"I think we're a match, Meg!"
