Shackles Love Contracts CEO Secretary
Silent Meeting

Today Syadira only has one morning class, so at 9:30 he can leave the campus. Syadira seemed to be in a hurry to board the taxi he had ordered. Syadira is in no hurry to return to the boarding house, but to a cafe not far from the campus.

It only takes 15 minutes to travel, Syadira arrived at the destination. The place where he had promised to meet someone. Syadira rushed into the cafe and approached one of the tables.

“Sorry, sir, I'm late because I just finished class,” Syadira told a middle-aged man sitting opposite her.

The man nodded and let Syadira sit down.

“Syadira, I just spoke to you, because I gave up on talking to Aji,” said the man, who turned out to be Mr. Haryo, Aji's father who asked him to meet secretly.

Syadira was silent and watched every word that Aji's father said.

Aji's father sighed. “I will bear all the facilities Aji gave you, as long as I leave Aji.”

Deg.

This is the second time Syadira's heartbeat tightened when dealing with Mr. Haryo, his former CEO.

“Sorry, sir, but Mas Aji is serious about me and wants to marry me. I can't just leave it. I don't want to hurt Mas Aji,” Syadira replied in fear.

“If you leave her life, Aji will be able to forget you. Do not be afraid, I will bear all your living expenses as well as your tuition fees, and I will also provide the best work for you!” Aji's father still forced his request.

Syadira's tears immediately fell down his chubby cheeks. “Not about that, Sir. But I don't want to hurt Mas Aji by leaving him out of the blue. Mas Aji has been very good to me. I'm sorry. My heart weight does it.”

“If Mr. Haryo does not approve of our relationship, you can force Mas Aji to leave me, as long as I do not do it, sir, I cannot,” continued Syadira begged so sincere.

Syadira still kept her head down and tried to ease her cries.

“Then what do you want? Wish you could live with Aji?” ask Aji's father again.

Syadira was still trying to stop her tears that seemed unwilling to stop dripping. He answered Aji's father's question with all his might. “One more time I'm sorry, sir. Not for me to drop my heart on Mas Aji, but for our feelings to love each other. For God's sake I have no intention and purpose whatsoever of this relationship, I just want to live quietly with my loved ones.”

Aji's father was silent for so long.

“Remove your tears, later people think I have done bad to you,” Aji's father orders and leave Syadira.

Syadira was still sitting pensively wiping away her tears. A few minutes later, a man called his name. "Silkira."

Syadira turned towards the source of the voice. “Mas Aji."

“Mas Aji know where I'm from here?” Syadira wondered why Aji was here.

Aji explains that it was Elma who told him, because Elma was worried that Aji's father would do bad to her brother. Syadira also remembered that before leaving for campus, he told his sister if Aji's father wanted to invite him to meet. Syadira has also asked her sister not to say this to Aji.

Aji asked Syadira again about their meeting. “What did dad say until you cried?”

Syadira shook her head and took Aji away from the cafe because it was not good to see other visitors.

Arriving at the car, Aji continues to force Syadira to tell her stories.

“I'll tell you but Mas Aji promise ya won't be angry with dad, because I've promised him not to say about our meeting to Mas Aji,” pinta Syadira before he tells you.

Aji nodded in agreement.

Syadira began to tell me what they were talking about in the meeting. He also reveals the reason for crying is because he does not want to hurt Aji by following his father's request. Aji's father wants Syadira to leave his son.

Hearing Syadira's story, Aji's anger starts to come out. Syadira also asked that if their relationship is not approved by Aji's father, it is better for Aji to leave him than for him to do so. His heart would not be strong enough to leave such a perfect man to him.

Not felt, Syadira's tears returned to drip. Aji wiped her tears and hugged her lover. Aji promised me none of this would ever happen. Neither he nor Syadira would leave each other.

###

Upon arrival at home, Aji deliberately did not discuss anything about Syadira with his father, according to his lover's request. Aji's father was more silent than usual. When Aji was chatting with his grandfather at the dinner table, Aji's father seemed to have no interest in hoarding as usual.

After dinner, Aji accidentally saw his father looking at his wedding photo attached to the wall with a large size. Aji's father's room door opened slightly, allowing Aji to notice her father still standing looking at the photo. Aji's father is seen wiping a picture of his wife who has passed away while giving birth to Aji's sister, whose baby also cannot be saved. Aji heard a loud noise from her father. Aji remained silent looking at her father who was still standing far away from the door.

“Bu, is that how your sincerity used to be? Is he who you mean?”

Aji listened carefully to the words coming out of her father.

“What does father mean?” he said in his heart.

Seeing his father who had not said anything, Aji hurried to leave the father's room.
