After the effort made by Aji at that time, he felt more relieved. At least, Aji's father starts to open his heart to accept Syadira. So, they just need to run their relationship as usual.
That morning at the office, Aji will receive guests who are clients of the company where Aji works. The client was supposed to meet with his father, however, today Aji's father was unable to enter the office due to his poor health condition, so Aji who replaced him met the client. Aji invited the guest, who seemed to be the same age as her.
The woman looked well mannered and meek, in contrast to Bella as well as Selena. Like, this woman is Syadira with a high-class version. The woman looked so perfect, her appearance was simple yet alluring. Aji watched him long enough.
The woman introduces herself as Luna, a boutique owner in Bandung who wants to open her boutique in Jakarta. He wants Aji's company to take care of the design until its construction. They talk a little about the old estimation of workmanship, the design that Luna wants, and also the estimated cost. Aji also immediately scheduled the arrival of his team on site to determine the plan of the development process.
According to the procedure, if the time span and cost and design have been approved, the client will make a down payment. That afternoon, they will visit a location that turns out not so far from Aji's office. Luna, who was not carrying a vehicle, asked for permission to ride in Aji's car. To maintain a good relationship with the client, Aji also kindly agreed.
Aji and Luna descend into the lobby past Vita's desk. Syadira's friend looked at them with a cynical and curious look. “Client Pak Aji why beautiful, anyway. Is Syadira not jealous?”
###
Aji and Luna's cooperation project is quite smooth. Luna is also not a type of client who is chatty and too perfectionist. From the beginning, Aji easily obtained Luna's approval regarding their cooperation process.
Not infrequently, Luna also visited the location of the boutique to be built. This makes him often meet with Aji. Luna also sometimes invited Aji to lunch together, and vice versa. Until one time, Syadira accidentally saw her lover was having lunch with Luna. Syadira who is quite patient, can only wait for Aji's honesty, moreover, Vita once told about Luna who several times came to Aji's office and they left the office together.
Silence doesn't mean he doesn't feel anxiety. Moreover, lately Aji has rarely met him. Aji had said that he was taking care of 3 projects at once, so that these few weeks will be busy and rarely meet Syadira. Syadira, who is also working in one of Aji's grandfather's offices, keeps him busier than usual. They accept each other's busyness, but after seeing the events of that time and the story of Vita, Syadira begins to overthink. Not without reason, because at night, Aji who should be able to meet him, turned out to be absent several times.
That afternoon, Aji, who had finished his work, picked up Syadira who was waiting for him in front of the office where he worked.
Aji greeted him warmly as before, but in contrast to Syadira who was slightly pouting.
“You don't miss?” tanya Aji teases her lover.
Syadira. “Indeed Mas Aji Kangen? If so, why do they rarely see me? So busy?”
Realizing her lover who was getting upset because he was rarely found, Aji seemed to get more and more anxious. “I ‘kan already said that some weeks will be busy, Darling.”
Aji looked at Syadira deeply. “Means?”
Syadira began to ask the woman who had lunch with Aji at that time. He also protests Aji who does not like to see Syadira with his male friends, while Aji is often seen with other women. Aji laughed when he heard the anger of his girlfriend. Aji introduces Luna as well as the reason why they are often together.
“What happens if Mas Aji night does not have time to kos?” Syadira still does not accept.
“Let everything finish faster, I often overtime, you can ask Vita, I often enter the office again at 5 pm, and go home at night. Even if I'm not overtime at the office, I'm home late, so, we rarely meet," explained Aji.
Aji also apologized for making her lover jealous and promised to always give time to Syadira.
Seeing Syadira who was still moody, Aji hugged and kissed her lips for so long.
###
Since Syadira protest at that time, Aji always took the time to pick up or just meet his lover even though not every day.
Like this afternoon, Aji returned to pick up Syadira at his office. They decided to have dinner together. During the trip, Aji is busy receiving calls from Luna, also while eating, he often holds his phone. Until when taking Syadira home, Aji seemed to not focus on his lover.
This makes Syadira upset and reprimands Aji. He feels Aji has changed lately. With her gentle soul, Aji always calms Syadira down and explains that her project is in a bit of trouble. Syadira who began to get tired of his daily activities that had to go to college while working, he became easily ignited emotions and jealousy, also accusing Aji who did not.
Aji who is trying to solve the problem, still continues to patiently calm Syadira so as not to think bad. Until because both of them are tired, Aji accidentally snapped Syadira. Syadira was silent for a moment.
“Dira enough! I've explained everything so often, but why don't you understand. I ask for your understanding soon. Can't it? If you don't understand my work, don't make accusations! Me and Luna just work together, nothing more!”
His ideal man, his ideal lover, the man who had never snapped at him, even angry almost never. Suddenly now spoke with a loud tone that hurt the heart. Along the way to his boarding house, Syadira just silently looked at the window and held back her tears.
