Solar Throne
Flying and Shaded

The streets of this morning are still empty. Street lights are still on because the sun only just looks reddish hue in the eastern horizon. The air is also very cold. But Surya has to go to the airport this early. The flight he was to board to the meeting place of the employers' union was the first scheduled flight this morning.

Surya looked out the window of his car. He didn't drive himself today. The driver delivered. His secretary accompanied him and sat down next to the driver.

"Siska, remind me to stop by the cake shop when I get to the airport."

"Good."

Surya had to do that because he had promised Gina that he would have a coffee bun breakfast at the tavern. It was an ordinary shop Gina also bought a cake she used to eat while waiting for her flight to depart.

Gina started to open her eyes as she felt movement beside her. Surya put the bolster near Gina's body.

"Sorry Miss, I didn't mean to wake you up."

"Are you really going now?" Gina's voice was still lazy because she just woke up

"Yes Miss, I have to go on a morning flight."

"Your wounds?"

"I've made sure this is okay, Miss."

"You're so stubborn." Gina fixed the pillow on her head to make it more comfortable. Surya responded to Gina's words with just a smile.

"You brought your medicine?"

"Of course, Miss."

"Don't wear sunglasses." Said Gina still lazily to wake up and just fall asleep because the sleepiness still feels heavy. Surya who heard that became astonished because Gina's speech was really strange.

"Sorry, Miss?"

"Anyway don't. Also, do not wear white shirts. You brought a white shirt?" Ask Gina again which makes Surya more confused.

"But, why, Miss?" Surya could not understand the command spoken by Gina.

"Not ask much. Just follow my orders. Or I'll really make you fail to go to that rendezvous."

Surya then approached his bag and opened the zipper. He took out two white shirts from the bag and intended to replace them with another color shirt to put in his bag again.

"You're carrying two pieces at once?" Gina now woke up from her sleep after seeing what Surya had just taken out from inside the bag she was about to carry.

"Didn't you have another color shirt?"

"Actually my shirt is mostly white and black, Miss."

"Oh my God, television is full color now, so why do you still like black and white?"

"I like monocromatic colors, Miss."

"Well, but when you're not with me, make sure you never wear a white shirt." Surya frowned.

"Don't ask me why, just do what I tell you." Gina continued as if she knew Surya must be very curious about it.

"Alright Miss, I'll go now." Surya had put the sunglasses and the white shirt he had changed into a grey shirt on Gina's room table.

"Take your medicine in time. Arriving at the airport, buy coffee bun and mineral water. Not tea or coffee. They're no match for the medicine you're about to take."

"None right."

"By the way, how long are you going?"

"All right, take care of yourself. Don't forget to take your medicine."

"Thank you, Miss." Surya then came out of Gina's room.

Gina took a heavy breath. Shown by him for these two days he will not meet Surya. He will feel lonely. Gina then pulled out her blanket and returned to her body. It's still 5 in the morning. It was too early for Gina to get out of bed.

Gina really doesn't want Surya to wear a white shirt with her sunglasses on. For him when Surya wears all that he will look handsome and Gina really likes it. He did not want the moment the woman saw him with that appearance to be attracted to him as well as what Gina experienced when she saw Surya dressed up like that. He knows he's possessive now. But he must do that so that Surya will not be liked by other women besides himself.

Sometimes Gina was a little sorry for changing Surya's appearance. That makes him a near-perfect man. Kind-hearted, intelligent, understanding, considerate, good-looking and also faceless, Gina's version. Everything in Surya coupled with a good looking appearance makes it look amazing. Every time they go somewhere, it is not uncommon for people to notice. Often there are also those who comment that they are a matching couple. Beautiful and handsome. Every time I hear that, Gina feels proud. Changing the appearance of Surya can actually bring up the other side of him that was not seen before. And patenting Surya with that appearance made Gina feel unmistakable.

Surya had already reached the airport and was walking towards the departure gate. In her right hand was the bread box that Gina had suggested earlier. Indeed, only the bakery is open 24 hours at the airport so it is very easy to get by prospective passengers if they want to prop themselves up before taking a flight, especially at this early hour.

Surya and his secretary have entered the plane by now. Business class is where Surya is sitting enjoying his trip soon. Siska seemed to open the laptop that she was carrying checking something there. Surya opened the box with the bread. He also took out a cup of medicine that he had to take.

"Are you really okay?"

"Yes, I'm fine."

"But Miss Gina yesterday told me to let you take a few days off."

"Miss Gina is just too worried. Just a small wound, so I can still do a lot of things."

Surya himself confused to define Gina's attitude lately. Gina was often kind to him. Sometimes Surya thinks Gina may have a purpose that Surya does not know. Either because Gina has to pretend well for her Papa to give her R-Company immediately or she's having another strategy that she doesn't know and Surya doesn't know.

Meanwhile Gina was on top of her bed many times changing her sleeping position. He looks agitated. It felt like all sleeping positions were uncomfortable for him. Then with annoyance he lifted his body to wake up in a sitting position.

"Sucks. I can't sleep anymore." Gina ruffled her hair in annoyance.

Suddenly, he felt his room become quiet. Just by imagining that there will be no Surya there in the next few days, Gina is already lonely.

"Why does he have to go out of town? Why wasn't the meeting just in this town." Complain Gina.

"Oh my God, I've even missed him." Gina's eyes looked far away.

He remembered how last night he slept one bed with Surya. It felt the same as when he slept with Surya in his house. He feels calmer and there is a sense that somehow Gina has to define him but that obviously Gina likes that. He likes to be in bed with Surya. There are beautiful waves and also worry. Worried how if he snores during sleep. Or what if he acted excessively without realizing it that made Surya uncomfortable. Or what if he did something improper while he was sleeping. But of all those worries when Gina wakes up feeling good to sleep with Surya. He had to think what because of his age that was worthy of being at the age of marriage or because he had never slept in bed with any man so sleeping with Surya was soothing. He had someone who, when he was awake, he could see. And it's really calming.

Surya's flight still has to travel another hour. Siska next to him seemed to be asleep. He must have woken up very early to be able to wait for his boss to approach. Actually Siska intends to go directly to the airport and meet Surya there. But Surya said he would pick him up so that he was forced and resignedly had to leave with his boss. At first Siska had refused because he was too shy a boss instead had to approach him.

"This section will be difficult to get a taxi or ojek online. So, in order for you to make it to the airport in time and our trip isn't messed up, you better be with me."

"But I don't feel good when my boss comes to me."

"I'm doing this not only for my subordinates, but I also don't want to be left behind by the plane just because you're late." Obviously Surya while smiling.

"Oh yes, right. I also need to be on time. Sorry not to realize that."

Surya threw his gaze towards the outside of the window. White clouds look like clumps of cotton. The sky this morning was blue. The sun had started to creep up and was increasingly emitting its rays. Under his plane, he crossed a vast rice field stretching with the rice beginning to turn yellow. He remembered his paddy field which may have now started the harvest season. If he has time, maybe he will take Gina to go to his village again and invite her to harvest rice in the rice field and follow the alms events that are usually done by the villagers.

Remembering Gina, Surya remembered how he slept with her last night. Gina is always like that when she sleeps. Always moving around a lot and filling the place. Two bolsters between them eventually fell to the floor because of the behavior of Gina who slept with a lot of style. Surya until I was wrong to put his position so as not to get a kick from him. He often finds it when he wakes up at night and from the sofa sees Gina's much fickle sleeping position.

Moreover, last night without Gina realizing it had embraced her. Surya felt that something had happened to his body so he woke up. It turned out that when he opened his eyes, Gina was already very close to him. With his head parallel to his chest and hands coiled around his body. Sensing that all of a sudden Surya became breathless. Not because Gina's embrace is too tight but feels her heart racing so that it makes her breathing so irregular. The warm breath of Gina sweeping through his body made him feel anxious to touch the woman beside him.

Slowly Surya raised his hand and started touching the hair covering Gina's cheeks. At a glance Surya's hands could feel that smooth and fragrant hair was very soft. He was almost hypnotized and touched the skin of his face. But then he realized that even though their status was a couple but they should not be in the current position.

Surya then slowly begins to pull himself up and avoid Gina. But it seems that Gina felt Surya begin to shift her body so unconsciously Gina hugged Surya tighter as if she did not want to make distance from him. Surya took a deep breath and grew increasingly agitated. Restless if he could not control himself and broke their agreement with a very fatal action. Although eventually he had to resign locked up Gina with such a position.

Surya who was sitting in the passenger seat felt his warm chest. Imagining what happened last night made his chest pound again. He grabbed it and started to get scared. Therefore, Surya also wants the charade to end so that he no longer needs to be in a situation that makes him worried that he could at any time lose control of himself.
