"I'm so full." Gina complained while leaning on the comfortable seat of Surya's car.


Surya had glanced at Gina who made herself more comfortable and put her head on the headrest. Whether because of hunger or indeed he was wanting to eat rice field, this afternoon Gina was very greedy to spend her food. Rendang, grilled chicken, beef jerky and cassava leaf vegetables are side dishes and vegetables that he chose from a row of dishes arranged on his desk. Finishing all that, Gina then moved the head of the Snapper in the gulai vegetable into her plate as well. Shamelessly or awkwardly Gina enjoyed the meat from the snapper's head with both hands.


Seeing Gina being so brutal while eating like that was a lot of fun for Surya. Gina was hardly picky about food. He likes all types of food as long as it does not give a taste too spicy. Gina does not like foods with a high degree of spiciness. According to him, spicy food makes him unable to enjoy the taste because his tongue will only focus on the spicy taste, so he can not enjoy other flavors.


Gina drank the water beside him and then smiled with satisfaction after spending all that. But he gasped as Surya touched his lips with a tissue.


"Why? I'm shackles?" Gina asked and was answered with a nod by Surya with a smile.


"You shouldn't have to do that. You just tell me enough." Gina rubbed her own lips after Surya pulled her hand. He knew for sure his face had no leftover food now but that he was lakukam to cover his nervousness had been treated like that by Surya.


Gina remembers that and feels Surya always makes her want to cross the line on and on. Whether Surya intentionally did that to seduce her or because Surya was indeed just attention, which obviously all made Gina comfortable. And that comfort made him even more fond of Surya. Gina smiled wryly at herself who felt that she might have gone crazy for letting her feelings just spread. And even after knowing Surya has more lovers than one even makes him feel challenged to win Surya's heart.


Gina parted ways with Surya in the elevator and he came out first on the floor of the room she was in. Surya proceeded to the floor where his own room was on the upper floor. Gina slowly walked closer to her room. But just as he was about to hold the doorknob, he heard a conversation of two people. Gina wondered who was talking in her room. He began to stick his ears closer to the door and the clearer the voice became. One is Hanna's voice and the other is a man Gina seems to know. They seem to be arguing. Gina further sharpened her hearing but then there was the sound of something being thrown towards the door. Gina jumped in shock and was convinced there had been a commotion inside there that might have resulted in bloodshed.


Without thinking Gina then opened the door and entered her room to find out what really happened. Right, a stack of files scattered on the floor near her feet stood up as soon as Gina was already in the room.


"What's this?" Gina asked the two who were looking at her straight.


"And you, why are you here? In my room?" Gina looked at Marco sharply.


"What are you doing here and making this mess?" Gina's voice was rising.


"Hanna, are you okay?" Gina approaches Hanna who is standing behind her desk facing Marco who is pecking at her desk.


"I'm sorry, Miss. I'm the one who made a mess in this room." Hanna's eyes glazed over.


Just this time Gina saw Hanna like that. His face implied both anxiety as well as anger. But Gina then ignores Hanna and turns her eyes to Marco.


"You... What are you doing here? Why are you bothering Hanna? It's not even your company and you're making a mess in my room." Omelette Gina. But Marco did not flinch.


"Go away from here before I call security. Go, while I still respect you as a R-Company relation." Gina's voice began to rise.


"I'm sorry I made a fuss in your room." Marco said calmly.


"I'm just having a little business with my boyfriend." Marco's words this time made Gina widen her eyes alternately looking at Marco and Hanna.


"Daughter?" Gina again did not believe her ears when she caught that line from Marco's lips.


Gina sat behind her desk watching Hanna pick up the file on the floor. Marco had already walked out of his room after Hanna asked him to come out and promised to see him after his working hours were up. Gina still looked at Hanna's every move and it made her uncomfortable.


"One more time I'm sorry, Miss." Hanna who felt that Gina had noticed, apologized to her again.


"I'm the one who threw these files, Miss."


"Why did you throw it at the door? Why don't you just throw it in his face? A jerk like him deserves it." Gina said coldly because she was upset with Marco who had fought with Hanna.


When Marco says that he is Hanna's boyfriend, it feels like Gina wants to faint to hear it. Not only did Surya have many women but Hanna even dated three men one way. It was amazing for Gina.


"No, Miss, I am guilty. I don't want to hurt him."


"really? Why did you hurt her? I think he must be more potentially guilty of you than the other way around."


"Yes, Miss. It was my fault that Marco became angry and I had to vent my frustration because he could not accept my explanation. So I had to throw all this in order for Marco to stop cornering me."


"Ahh, I don't know what's going on with you guys but I don't think I believe you're dating Marco." Gina leaned back on her chair.


"I thought you were dating Bayu. Isn't it?" Gina looked at Hanna who was mistaken after hearing Gina's words.


"So you're dating both of them?" Gina Cecar. Hanna responds to Gina.


"No Miss, actually I'm not dating Bayu. We're just friends."


"really?" Gina straightened her back and folded both her hands on the table as she wanted to look at Hanna closer. Hanna nodded in response to Gina without a sound.


"So, your boyfriend is Marco?"


"Yes, Miss. I'm sorry for just saying yes when Miss thought me and Bayu were dating. I don't mean to lie to Miss but I know Miss would probably feel uncomfortable to me if you knew I was the boyfriend of your ex-girlfriend whom you hate the most." Gina took a good look at Hanna's explanation and felt her personal assistant had honestly said it all.


"Dearly enough. Though I can be more appreciative when you claim to be dating Bayu than when I found out you were Marco's girlfriend." Mumbled Gina.


"By the way, are you sure you're just dating Marco?" Gina ensure. This is his chance to find out about his relationship with Surya.


"Sorry, Miss?" Hanna was not sure of Gina's true intentions.


"Oh yeah, sorry." Gina is aware that her question may be offensive because it could mean Gina is accusing Hanna of being a playgirl if she thinks she has a boyfriend other than Marco.


Gina was silent while listening to the music played by Surya from the audio device in her car. That felt a bit strange to Surya. Gina became quiet this time. Either something was wrong with him or there was something else he was thinking about and it made Surya uncomfortable.


"Miss, you want to shop for something?" Surya asked to break the silence between them.


"No." Gina answered briefly.


"Our dinner, you want what?"


"Are you okay, Miss?"


"Yes... Oh no..." Surya turned to Gina who was correcting that answer.


"You sick?"


"Not really, but I'm confused."


"Why?"


"I can't believe Hanna and Marco are dating."


"Oh about that." Surya replied casually. And it made Gina feel weird.


"You... know about this?"


"Yes, Miss."


"What??? You..know? Are you and Marco that close?" Once again Gina takes the opportunity to find out the relationship between Surya and Hanna. But this time he used the name Marco as his bait.


"Actually me and Mr. Marco are not very close, we are just business relations, as you know. But then Hanna dated him so that Mr. Marco became my friend too."


"Your friend too?" Gina's question caught an awkwardness from Surya's sentence on the word 'also'.


"Yes, Miss."


"What do you mean you and Hanna are friends?" Gina looked at Surya who was still concentrating on holding the steering wheel.


"Yes, Miss. Hanna was my junior during my time at college."


"Oh yeah?" Gina widened her eyes to find new facts about Surya and Hanna. Surya simply answered him with a nod.


"How many more secrets do I not know about you?"


"Sorry, Miss?" Surya's voice hesitated a little.


"Have we not agreed not to interfere in each other's affairs." Surya continued with a voice getting lower and half whispering. It seemed like he regretted saying that to Gina because it was a sign he was affirming on their current relationship.


"Ahh yes, you are right. We are not in a relationship to get to know each other. We can't even be friends. We're in a relationship that I'm gonna have to take your place in R-Company and you're gonna have to be willing to give it up."


"Surely Miss, that's how we are." Surya replied that he was still driving his car home.


Gina breathed heavily. After saying all that, his feelings became chaotic. His heart became sick to realize that indeed from the beginning he should not like Surya. Surya is not the right person to be the mooring of his heart. First, he is the one who made his Papa to replace him at the moment in R-Company because Pak Rangga considers himself not worthy of being in the highest position. Second, her mother disliked Surya and would have been against her feelings had her mother really known it. Third, Surya was not a single man. Behind his closed life, he has a romantic relationship that he kept secret all this time with his secretary.


For days Gina thought it was a reasonable enough reason to erase her feelings of joy to Surya. But his heart was too heavy to let go of that feeling. He felt that Surya was the man who could calm his heart, the man who understood him the most, knew him more than anyone. Even Surya knows his habits that his parents do not know. How to persuade when he is angry, how Surya comforts when he is sad, how he calms when Gina feels restless at something. Gina starts to fall in love because it's all that's basically the attention Surya showed her. The attention he gets from no one.


"But by the way, where did you know Hanna was dating Mr Marco?"


"We're not too close for you to know where I know about it." Answer Gina cuek.


Surya smiled wryly hearing it. He knew Gina was reciprocating by showing them the current position of their relationship.


While at a restaurant Marco sees Hanna entering the door and walking towards his waiting place. Hanna sat on one of the chairs and put her bag on the other.


"I'm sorry." Marco's opening words while looking at Hanna with his overcast face.


"I admit I don't like watching you and Bayu go together like that."


"I have to tell you how many times Bayu is just a friend." Obviously Hanna.


"But I see he doesn't see you as a friend. In her eyes you're a woman and as a fellow man, I know that."


"That's it. If that's what you're talking about, I'll go." Hanna grabbed her bag and got up from her seat. But as quickly as lightning Marco grabbed Hanna's hand to hold her back. Hanna looked at her arm in Marco's hand.


"All right, I'm sorry." This time Hanna saw it as if Marco regretted his words and it made him return to his seat again.


"Can we forget about the incident and start our romantic dinner?" Go talk to Marco to his angry girlfriend.


"I ordered your favorite chicken katsu. With strowberi cake as the cover." Hanna looked at Marco deeply.


"This is a risk I have to bear. Dating a very capable playboy seduces women." Hanna pretended to be angry. His anger had subsided a while ago.


"Come on, I'm not a playboy anymore. Don't believe what your boss says. Gina doesn't know me now. He always thought badly of me."


"really?" Hanna pretends not to believe Marco's words.


"You know, it looks like I got hit by the stone. I think I got my karma. After meeting you I felt that there was no woman more attractive than you. You've really blinded me to everything so all that looks beautiful is you, nothing else."


"You're a real playboy who's good at seducing. You're very talented at this." Mumbled Hanna saw how Marco seduced her with great earnestness, trying hard to keep her from getting angry anymore.


Hanna then smiled. Seeing that Marco became relieved. It means that her boyfriend is no longer angry. He grabbed Hanna's hand on the table and held it gently. Marco never thought about how he could be so fond of the girl in front of him. Since his first meeting a few years ago in R-Company when Hanna had just been accepted as an R-Company clerk, Marco felt the girl had captured his heart. Her sharp but soothing eyes were very attractive to her heart to get to know him more closely and like a dipper in tandem, Hanna also accepted her love.
