After keeping Phiranita to sleep, Rihan immediately stood up and was about to come out followed by Alex.
"Where are you going?" Neo asked frowned.
"home." Briefly Rihan who was about to open the room door.
"So fast?"
"I just came to see Tata." Rihan said, staring at Neo.
"It's almost lunchtime, we'd better have lunch together." Neo stared at his watch which showed it at 11:15. A little more lunch.
"I still have a few minutes to get home, so no need."
"I didn't prepare anything for you guys just now, so it's best to stay and eat together. I don't want you to reject it." Neo's tone of voice was full of emphasis.
"But Sir..." Prevent Alex.
Sighing for a moment, Rihan immediately looked at Alex shaking his head then staring at Neo.
"All right."
"Let's get down." Neo smiles happily because he managed to invite Rihan to eat together.
"Like not the Neo that I know," Monologue Logan dalqm heartily astonished by Neo's attitude. Logan had known Neo long enough, so he knew clearly what Neo was like.
Arriving at the dinner table, there is already a variety of food served there. The 2×1 meter long table was full of food when there were only 4 people who would eat, but it looked like a menu for 10 people.
"When has there been this much food?" Ask Logan in your heart. He had been with Neo since then but why did he not know if Neo prepared all this. This boss is really something.
"What an extravagant rich man," Cibir Rihan flattened and pulled out one of the chairs and sat down first without waiting for the host.
Neo just smiled clumsily and scratched his non-itchy head. Neo pulled out a chair for himself and took a seat in front of Rihan.
"When did all this happen?" Logan asked whispered to Neo who was sitting next to him.
"Since we were above. I had people prepare everything" Reply Neo whispered.
"Master," Call Alex slowly. This was the first time Rihan would eat food prepared by others. Alex is just afraid of the condition of his employer's body.
"What's wrong?" Ask Logan curiously.
"Nothing." Answer Rihan flat.
"Look down, there's no poison in there." Neo seems to know Alex's worries. That's not what Alex was afraid of.
"Please eat. Consider it your own home." Logan then filled the plate.
Rihan calmly filled his plate as well. He believed in Neo so there was no worry at all.
Neo and Logan begin to enjoy their meal. So too with Rihan. As for Alex, Rihan's assistant just stared at her employer without touching her food. He would not eat until he saw his master was fine.
Rihan who felt noticed, immediately looked down at Alex as if saying 'eat'. Alex immediately decided his gaze and began to put one mouthful into his mouth.
When the third feed, Rihan suddenly stopped and put the spoon on the plate.
"You're not very meticulous" Rihan said flatly and looked at Neo who was also staring at him. Rihan immediately threw away the meat he had almost swallowed into the tissue.
"meaning?" Tanya Neo took a bowl of soup that Rihan saw.
"You okay? You swallowed it." Neo panics when he realizes that beef soup is not chicken.
Rihan is allergic to beef. Rihan also thought it was chicken meat because there was no difference at all. The beef was somehow cooked, so it was exactly the same as chicken soup.
Rihan has also been drinking his gravy first and the taste is not much different from the chicken soup he usually eats. Apparently the person who cooks has really taken everything into account. While chewing the meat, Rihan realized that it was beef.
"You intentionally?" Alex asked in anger. Rihan's assistant stared intently at Neo.
"sorry. I know you're allergic to beef. But I also wonder why there is beef here instead of chicken like I ordered? I'm really sorry."Neo felt guilty.
"You okay, Mister? I'm gonna call Doctor Galant." Panic Alex and want to get his phone.
"No need! You will make the entire mansion worried. Ak. I'm fine." Rihan spoke slowly. He started to hit his chest which felt tight.
"Then I'll call my personal doctor." Neo's proposal was firm.
"You're just going to invite those pests here" Rihan shook his head and still hit his chest. Rihan's face had also started to pale.
"Then what should I do?" Neo is panicking. Suddenly his brain blurred. He doesn't know what to do.
"Would just take Rei to your room, let him rest. Then we'll think about how to overcome the allergy" said Logan. It seemed like only he was still thinking clearly.
"Come on! You still have a strong road? Or do I want to carry it?" Neo's fresh approach to Rihan.
"This boy..is he aware of his words?" Logan said in his heart and then looked strangely at Neo.
"He's a man and you want to carry him? Do you realize what you said?" Whisper Logan after pulling Neo's arm that was about to approach Rihan.
"Why indeed? He's sick anyway."
"Sup to you. Though you can solve it, why even the sling you choose, ck..."
"Are you all right, sir?" Alex seemed most worried.
"Take me to the room" Rihan tried to endure the pain. Alex quickly turns Rihan into Neo's room.
"Where's your room?" Ask Alex.
"Come with me!"
Arriving in Neo's room, Alex then helps Rihan lie down after taking off the shoes Rihan was wearing and then covers them.
"Then what should we do?" Ask Neo worriedly.
"This must be your plan, right? Don't pretend to be anxious." Enraged Alex then pulls Neo's shirt collar. Alex is ready to hit Neo if Logan doesn't hold him back.
"Lexi..." Call Rihan quietly but can still be heard by the three men.
"Do you need anything, sir?" Alex asked while wiping the sweat on Rihan's forehead with his handkerchief.
Although Rihan has been injected serum for his body's metabolism, but allergies are still allergic.
Rihan looks increasingly weakened. His face grew pale with lips starting to turn blue. Alex was panicking.
"Find out who leaked my allergies." Rihan's curiosities. His breath began to go up and down.
"Then who will take care of you? I will not leave you with those two men. I don't trust them very much." Denying Alex is still wiping Rihan's sweat.
"I'm doing fine. It's just someone else doing it intentionally. Find them for me. Before that, put the medicine in my bag."
"Sick relief only. Go!" Rihan said after taking the medicine.
"Good, Sir."Alex stood up with a force.
"If anything happens to my employer, your lives are at stake." Threaten Alex and get out of there.
"You take it easy."
"You also find out who delivered the food. Find it to its roots." Neo orders cold on Logan.
"OKAY. Leave it to me."
Logan rushes to leave Neo and Rihan.
"What do you feel?" Ask Neo who is now sitting on a chair near Rihan's bed.
"Hungry." Brief Rihan.
"Eh..."
"Don't you see I'm sick?" Rihan looked at Neo lazily. Despite the pain, Rihan tried to hold her back.
"Sorry.. You need anything?" Ask Neo quietly.
"No."
"alright. Then what should I do for you?"
"Sit's in your place. I'll be fine in the next few hours." Rihan closed his eyes. He's not strong to move. He just hopes the drugs taken quickly react.
"You're not dead, are you?" Neo's voice made Rihan sigh slowly and open his eyes.
"It looks like my pain will soon heal because of your behavior."
"That's great."
"That's it. Don't bother me!" Rihan closed his eyes again.
"sorry. You're hurt again because of me. My debt is piling up on you. I'm feeling more guilty." Said Neo quietly not wanting to disturb Rihan who seemed to have fallen asleep. Unfortunately Rihan did not sleep. He still heard the word Neo.
"Sleep. I'll take care of you" Neo spoke as he cleared Rihan's forehead which was sweating with his palms.
For nearly half an hour, Rihan was finally fast asleep. His pain was also slightly reduced due to the effect of the medicine he was taking earlier.
"Thank God, you're fine." Prevent Neo when Rihan no longer sweats. His face was not too pale, nor were his lips.
Just a few minutes later, Neo frowned again as Rihan suddenly squeezed tightly into the bedsheet.
"What's wrong with you?" Neo asked and then began to slowly take off Rihan's hand squeezing the sheets.
"I wonder what your past is like" Neo muttered while tightly grasping Rihan's right hand with both hands.
"Stop... It's pain..." Rihan in his sleep. Rihan now clasped Neo's hand.
"Rei... relax! there's me here" Neo said as he stroked the soft tip of Rihan's head.
"Fever?" Neo muttered as he felt the heat on Rihan's forehead.
"In..ngin..." Rihan started to shiver.
Neo then allowed Rihan's increasingly shivering blanket. The hands of both of them were gone.
"What should I do? Why is it still cold?" Neo murmured as the thick blanket that covered Rihan's body did not keep him warm. Rihan continued to murmur coldly.
"There's no other way,"
Neo then got into bed, got into the blanket and hugged the increasingly shivering Rihan. Both are in a blanket. Rihan has also started to calm down a bit. His cold murmur slowly disappeared.
"Looks worked. But... My heart why is it suddenly weird?" Inner Neo because his heartbeat is so fast.
"Maybe I'm not used to hugging other people yet." Neo continued inwardly, then looked at Rihan who seemed to have calmed down even though his fever had not gone away. Neo just looked at the sleeping Rihan. His embrace was not released either.
"Seeing up close, she was very beautiful. Naturally they call him a pretty man." Neo continued to speak inwardly.
Deg
Deg
Deg
Neo's heart is beating so much. How not, if Rihan's face is now only a few inches with his face. The roar of his breath was both felt as Rihan suddenly moved and slept sideways towards Neo.
"I can't take it anymore" Neo immediately went to sleep on his back. If he kept staring at Rihan, his heart would thump even more.
Neutralize the heartbeat, so that without feeling Neo also fell asleep.
**,
Alex enters with Logan to Neo's apartment because he doesn't have the key and doesn't know the pin either so Logan asks him to wait.
Despite trying to press the bell, no one opened the door because Neo forgot to turn off the soundproof in every room in his apartment.
The two then headed to Neo's room. When Logan opened the door, the two were shocked by what they saw.
"What view is this?" Logan's comments in my heart.
The two of them could see Neo hugging the waist of the sleeping Rihan back to Neo. The blanket that had been closed to the neck of both, now only limited to the waist. Both of them look very good and comfortable with their respective positions.
"Miss is not disturbed at all." Alex said to heart.
Alex knew his employer would be distracted quickly or would not be able to sleep well if a stranger slept beside him. In fact, his master was really sound right now.
"The moment of step. This could be a powerful weapon to threaten that tyrant boss," muttered Logan and smiled cunningly. Logan then took his phone to capture the moment of the two sleeping humans.
"What are you doing?" Alex looked at Logan.
"Prepare weapons for the future." Logan replies and starts taking pictures of Rihan and Neo. Alex just replied with a headband.
