Suddenly the President's Wife
27. Be With You

"Bak don't eat the cake."

The young man who was busy baking was back to break up. At the dining table a woman still in pajamas snorted bitterly. His lips were still busy chewing as the man in front of the oven said. A legit flavor that blends with the taste of nuts, bananas, and choco chips makes his tongue reluctant to stop swaying. The delicious taste is a pity if left alone.

"Bak nyicipin doang, Bi."

"Nyicipin has five seeds, Ma'am?" the young man sneered subtly. Since then, the brother has not stopped.

"Fabian Arian, don't learn stingy with Ma'am."

"It's not stingy, ma'am. It's just the cake for the tester. Time is eaten continuously, I'm not ready to make materials to remake." Bian looked at the older brother with both hands busy pulling out the baking sheet from the oven.

Arunika smiled slightly while nodding. "Udah, really. That's."

"Yes already dong, because Mbak is full, right?" grunts Bian.

Arunika laughed a little. He did wake up with a welcome smell of cake that just came out of the oven. Since early in the morning the younger brother has been struggling with cake dough. So when dawn breaks on the eastern horizon, nut cookies and banana bread choco chips are served on the table. He said the loaves were made as testers requested by one of Bian's acquaintances. He was planning to leave his creations in the cafe of one of his acquaintances.

"Don't want to go to work?" bian asked when the brother did not get up from the chair. The clock nearly touched seven o'clock. Usually, the brother will fuss if the clock is not bathing.

"Police."

"Holiday?" bian's forehead was clinging to hearing it. The man in the white-grey uniform then turned around, facing the older brother. "The attention, Mbak is a lot of holidays lately. Didn't you get a HRD reprimand?"

"Don't worry. The proof until now the HRD is still diem-diem bae." Arunika smiled after saying so. "Some, Bi. This is a day off because the boss told me to. Ma'am, fuck me."

Bian frowned hearing it. "The same boss, Ma'am. Have a secretary if asked to continue vacation, who handles the job of secretary dong?"

Arunika winks her shoulders. "Either. Ma'am, yes, I was told to take a day off. Anyway yes, Ma'am also keep working. Work from home."

Bian no longer voiced after, because the super hoopla from his brother's mobile phone made the owner of the phone move.

"Bak get out first, pick up the phone."

"Hm."

The young man who was busy moving the cake answered.

Arunika then passed leaving the sister who was busy baking. There's one call coming in from Aling. He decided to move to the yard. He did not enter work because the boss was forbidden. I don't know why, but since the meeting with Arumi at that time, Altar reduced Arunika's working hours without cause.

"Yes, why Ling?"

"Where is it now, Ru?" ask for a voice from across.

"Home on. Why?"

"Can you go to Loneey's cafe, right? You see, the music producer who wants to collaborate on a single you are sure to meet."

Arunika. "Cafe Looney? Hmm, could he. At least thirty minutes, because I haven't had a shower."

"OKs. Then I'll wait there, yeah."

"Hm."

The phone was closed afterwards. Arunika will indeed launch her first single after many years of acting in the DJ world. From the beginning the offer to make a single has been milling around, but Arunika has not responded seriously. It was only recently that he changed his mind. Maybe it's time he became more widely known by the public, not just being an idol at Paradise clubs. At least Arunika expects satisfactory feedback from the decision.

As the clockwork moves closer to lunchtime, Arunika exits the house using her flagship outfit. Long jeans combined with a plain white shirt top with a rabbit head logo on the left. Do not forget a hat with a white 'potick' logo that adorns the head. Seiras with the color of canvas shoes that he used.

When he arrived at the cafe that Aling mentioned, almost all pairs of eyes turned their eyes to Arunika. Makes the woman link a confused frown.

"Ling, what's my dress tacky? The feeling from earlier they saw me mulu," asked Arunika shortly after sitting in front of Aling.

"Sorry, Ru."

Arunika's forehead frowned when she heard the response of her interlocutor. "Well, why are you suddenly apologizing, Ling?"

"W-why?!" shocked Arunika. "What really lo? The contract period of cooperation is canceled so without any confirmation first?"

Aling shook her head weakly. "Gue also just got a phone call from his man, Ru. Just now, before you came."

"Can't it be, Ling?" Arunika said slowly. He had high hopes for this project. Some fans have also been actively wondering about making the first single.

"Or maybe this has something to do with the news?" monologue Aling.

"What's Ling's suffering?" confused Arunika.

"Now there's nothing, anyway. It looks like it's taken down. But, the news had gone viral two days ago." Aling said while opening the phone.

"Kok I don't know?" confused Arunika.

"Maybe it's because you didn't go to work, Ru."

"Gue did not enter work because told by superiors," said Arunika clearly.

Mangosteen aling. "Gue took a few screenshots, but I thought hundreds of times to tell you."

"You know what, anyway?" confused Arunika while taking Aling's cell phone. Iris hazelnut hers staring at what is presented on the mobile phone screen. The next second the pupils of Arunika's eyes were perfectly patterned.

"What the h*ll is that?!" Arunika says fast.

How can there be a sloping news about him, but he does not know at all. Even Bian, his sister doesn't know. How hot news like that doesn't get to his ears. Though there clearly carry the name Arunika.

"It's a hoax from where, yeah Gusti!" Arunika hurriedly stored the flat object onto the table.

Now he knew why people had been watching him since. Here's why. A report has catapulted Arunika's name and face. Where in the news he was rumored to be the reason for the breakdown of the relationship of a young executive with a former finalist princess Indonesia. Complete with portraits featuring the three of them. The portrait was taken in the Altar apartment parking lot a few days ago.

"The office people also think that this news is true, because you like to say so, Ru."

"Gue didn't say! I was just told to leave the same.." Arunika's sentence was cut afterwards. "Wait, Ling. Don't tell me he knows?"

With a heavy heart Aling nodded her head. "The boss from yesterday was busy. I think he's also the one who's been trying to make this news in-take down."

Arunika was silent to hear it. So, this is the reason why his boss suddenly gave a leave of absence. Though he also knew if the man's schedule was solid. In retrospect, there was indeed something odd about his sudden superior order.

"What do you want now, Ru? There's no way you could have been dem, right? Here your position is harmed by this sloping news."

"Gue doesn't know, Ling."

Really, Arunika does not know what to do. He was also confused as to why he should be involved in such a matter. The life he lived alone was very complicated, now coupled with the love story of Arumi and the Altar that is striking and his name.

"Gue doesn't want to be involved in their business either, Ling."

"Gue also knew you didn't want any of this to happen. But all of this is something terrible. You can't get it if your name is tainted."

"Keep, now what am I supposed to do? Because of this news my first single project failed. I'm also banned from boss cooperation, in fact it's all just an alibi so I don't know."

Honestly Arunika was disappointed, upset was also sad. He was disappointed to learn about this problem. However, he could not blame Aling or anyone else. He was also upset because this news indirectly had made his good name polluted. On the other hand, he was sad because the launch of his first single had to fail. Who is to blame for how he feels right now? The arumi? The altar? Or destiny?

Arunika never planned on getting herself involved in the matter between them. Altar and Arumi. But who would have thought if the fate scenario brought a tangled thread to ensnare the three of them.
