Solar Throne
Don't Go

"Don't go. Stay here with me." Gina looked at Surya intently. Surya did not say anything and replied to Gina's view.

"After all, why do you have to go? Does being my subordinate make you feel humiliated?"

"No, Miss."

"Then why?" Surya still did not answer.

"Oh, I know." Gina rounded her eyes like she knew the answer to her own question.

"You're planning on setting up your own company?"

"No, Miss. I don't have that much capital to set up my own company."

"You have a lot of acquaintances that you can make business partners with. You must have no trouble in that."

"It looks like you gave me an idea for what I should do later if it really isn't in R-Company anymore."

"Whatis that? I can't believe you didn't have any plans when you intended to leave R-Company." Gina Cibir.

"With your quick-witted ability you must now have something to do later when you're really gone." Guess Gina.

"You're right, Miss. I have a plan for that."

"Well, you're right. You became what you are today with the skills you have because you were in R-Company. Because Papa made you his golden son and taught you a lot to lead the company. Then once you're able, you set up your own company and become our competitor?" Surya frowned at Gina's last sentence which started to use a high tone.

"You really..." Gina did not continue her words and turned her face away in annoyance. Surya smiled at that.

"Nobody will be able to rival R-Company in the near future, Miss. Especially if it's just a startup company that just stood up. It took a lot of time to be able to match the R-Company." Gina still turned her face away.

"I'm not going to start a company. I'll change the mood. Maybe being a farmer would be more fun. I can go back to the village. Can be with Father and Mother and take care of my own rice fields and gardens that I already have."

"Oh so it is. I know, you work in R-Company for a high salary and then buy all the land in your village so that after you're bored you can go back there and become a landlord." Surya could not say anything more. Gina always managed to make him smile with all the words she thought were funny.

"really right? It's like your plan, isn't it?"

"Yes, Miss. Life in the village is so much fun. Simple living. The peaceful atmosphere. And that's my hometown."

"I really can't believe you turned out to be that kind of person." Gina then moved out of her seat and out of the room left Surya. Surya shook his head at Gina's behavior, who became annoyed at him just because she knew she had to leave someday.

Surya thinks Gina should be quite happy with her departure. Didn't she always want to be detached from their current pretend marriage. And his departure will calm him down so that he can live life as he wishes.

Gina comes out of the bathroom and sees Surya opening the doorknob to get out of the room.

"Where are you going?" Gina asked by holding a towel over her head.

"I'm waiting for you downstairs for dinner, Miss."

"You don't want me to bring your dinner here?"

"No Miss, it will trouble you. This whole day you've been up and down to get me everything I need."

"It's okay, I really want to do it."

"Don't, it'll make you tired. I can do enough on my own. So don't spoil me. If I like it later, how?"

"What's? Like?" Gina blinked her eyes many times while digesting the meaning of the likes Surya said.

"Alright, I'll go down first, miss." Surya did not answer Gina's question and without asking her approval again, Surya came out of the room.

While Gina was still thinking about Surya's words while walking towards her dresser. He looked at himself in front of the mirror.

"Being liking? Does my treatment like that make her like it?" He muttered while removing the towel over his head. Her wet hair instantly decomposed lengthwise.

"Isn't that good. He liked me at last. So that would make him undo his intention to leave." Gina's face sparkled.

"Ahh, why does Surya have to go. Isn't he comfortable here? Worked at R-Company and earned a large salary. What's so good about being a farmer? Working in a hot and dirty field. It'll just make his skin sunburn and get darker." Gina's face turned sad.

"But Surya said my kind treatment could make her like it. Do I always have to be nice to her so she'll like it and not get out of here?" Gina felt she had to do that to make Surya stay at her house. He likes to be near Surya and feels he must be able to make Surya will not leave.

"Obviously, I think he's really bored today and I'm not allowed to go out of the room at all. The active man. He really couldn't stand being quiet for a day."

Gina was done drying her hair. Now he started down the stairs to get to the dining table. It was seen that Mr. Rangga, Bu Marina and Surya were already on one table.

"You don't intend to have dinner without me, do you?" Sapa Gina approached the dining table and pulled one of the chairs next to Surya for her to sit on. At first glance Gina had a glance at Surya who was looking at him.

"Why are you taking so long? Surya says you'll be down soon, but it turns out the word 'soon' is half an hour." Mr. Rangga protested.

"I have to make sure my hair is dry in order to enjoy this delicious chicken soup." Gina took a bowl of soup with chicken pieces in it. The aroma is very appetizing.

Mr. Rangga shook his head at his daughter's far-fetched reply. And Gina really didn't care about her Papa being annoyed at waiting for her for too long. Gina then placed the bowl in front of Surya while giving him a smile. Surya was looking at that.

"Thank you, Miss." Reply Solar.

"Or did I just bribe you? I don't think you can move around because of that wound yet."

"No, Miss, I can do it myself." Surya hurriedly refused because all day Gina had really made him eat by being fed by her. As soon as tonight she goes down before Gina does that again to her.

"Surely he's a baby, feeding must be fed." Mumbled Bu Marina and it could be heard by all the residents of the dining table. Gina chooses to pretend not to hear her mother's words and Surya feels bad. Mr. Rangga chose not to care about his wife's words and enjoyed his dinner voraciously.

"Surya, tomorrow the meeting will also be attended by Font and Bio Group. For Font, we have been working well together all this time. And tomorrow is our chance to start approaching the Bio Group. Make sure they're interested in supplying us with the best prices."

"Whatis that? You're back to work tomorrow?" Sela Gina hears Surya and her Papa talk.

"Yes Miss."

"can't. Your wounds have not healed. You can't do anything but just rest at home."

"So much cannabis. I even started working two weeks after giving birth to you." Said Bu Marina cynically. Gina looked at her mother.

"That's because Mama is a workaholic. But Surya, I don't allow you to be like that."

"Sorry, Miss. But as the head of the company, I have to come to the business union meeting tomorrow."

"You can ask your assistant to replace you. Papa used to rely on you as his assistant in various ways. Now it's your turn to do the same."

"I'm well enough to be here tomorrow, Miss."

"Who knows you're lying."

"Miss, I've really been better. The medicine that the doctor gave was really the best medicine so that my wound was no longer painful. I'm serious." Surya looked at Gina's face trying to convince her.

"really? You sure you didn't lie to me to leave tomorrow?"

"Yes, Miss. I really feel a lot better. It's also because you've been taking very good care of me all day. Thank you, Miss." Surya smiled at the end of his sentence. Gina pounded again.

"Ehhem, don't you see we're here? How can you act like you're filming an FTV." Bu Marina Protests

"That's right, with that romantic scene." Bu Marina immediately turned to Mr. Rangga while glaring her eyes a sign of dislike with what her husband said.

"All right, I'll go to the room first." Pamit Bu Marina's.

"You're not going to continue eating?"

"I'm full until I vomit." He answered while leaving the dining table.

"Don't mind your Mama." Said Mr. Rangga to Gina and Surya who was dumbfounded to see the middle-aged woman.

"Hey, I can still hear you, Pa. Yeah, don't mind me." Ms Marina stopped in her footsteps and replied to her husband. After that he actually went and entered his room.

Everyone at the dining table could only shut up after finding that uneasy atmosphere. Especially Surya who feels as the cause of it happened. Lately her mother-in-law has been more clearly showing her dislike towards her. From the beginning Surya knew about it but it was just that Bu Marina did not show this clearly. Surya breathed heavily very slowly so that neither Gina nor Pak Rangga knew there was a burden he was hiding at this time.

"I'm sorry for your attitude." Gina. He's in the room now.

"Why apologize?" Surya closed the door again. Gina was still standing in front of Surya after flipping over to be able to deal with him.

"I know it should be Mama who should apologize. But I also know that maybe Mama won't do it. So, I'm gonna apologize for him." Surya smile.

"It's night. Let's go to sleep." Surya walked towards the sofa and diverted the conversation which made them so uncomfortable.

"You wanna sleep on the couch?"

"Yes, Miss."

"No, sleep in my bed. I'll sleep on the couch."

"Don't Miss. I'll sleep on the couch."

"I'm afraid your wounds will be crushed again if you sleep in such a tight spot." Gina persuaded Surya.

"I'll be more careful, Miss."

"No, sleep in bed." Gina pulled Surya's hand and carried him to the bed.

"But Miss..."

"Have it, don't make me continue to feel guilty for disobeying me and your wounds don't heal either." Persuade Gina.

"Alright, Miss. But on one condition." Gina frowned hearing Surya's sentence.

"What?"

"How can I sleep here if you sleep on the couch? You're not used to sleeping on the couch and I'm not used to sleeping in bed. It will make us both unable to sleep eventually. So.. how about we.. sleep together..." Surya looked straight at Gina who was still pecking at where she stood.
