~ There is always a reason behind a betrayal ~

As Zaid stepped into the lobby of the Golden Eagle building, he paused for a moment before approaching Danu who had been standing waiting for him.

"Hello, Mr. Zaid Zabir!" greet Danu with an official tone.

Zaid welcomes Danu's hand. Afflicted. "Call me Zaid, sir!"

"Then call me Danu alone" Danu replied.

For a moment the two judged each other, revealing a faint smile. Danu concluded, it is fitting that Zaid and Ajie do not fit, they are different. Despite the cold, Zaid is more outgoing and appreciative of people.

While Zaid was a little surprised at the person Ajie chose as his trusted assistant. Danu, a man of different character to Ajie. Completely opposite. Especially when looking at the big smile and eyes of Danu who seemed to be laughing.

And Danu signaled that Zaid should follow him. With steady steps, Zaid walked with Danu to a special elevator. When the door opens, and they're about to enter. Someone in the elevator was shocked.

"Loh, Mas Zaid? Why come here?" lily asked confusedly. The question stops Danu and Zaid.

Zaid smiled warmly. "You met Mas Ajie, Sister Lily. How are you?" sapanya friendly.

"Really's? Thank goodness I am very healthy. Waah nice. Good luck to you! Oh yes, thank you for the gift to Ali at that time." Lily leaned slightly towards Zaid. "Hmm.. must be about .. ha ha... Yes already. Endar if he met Mas Ajie, he said whatever bit do not take heart. Nooooo! Mas Ajie is hard on the surface, his heart is Hello Kitty. Hi hi hi hi... "

"Mother Lily..if it's close to that, we belom nyampe up also have been given first by Ajie!" danu warned.

Lily turned around while narrowing her eyes. "Eh hello, Mr. Spy Man's! If Mas diem-diem, yes he does not know. Wonder... Mas Danu was told what the hell the same Mas Ajie, very loyal to the boss."

"Oh, helllo's the boss... Boss is mom's husband!"

"Jeesss.it's hard to talk about Mas Ajie's tail. Huh!" Lily clenched her tongue before turning away and smiling sweetly at Zaid. "Lily said to Mas Zaid. Hopefully the business is successful so that it is smooth yes. "he said while staring meaningfully. Throwing the meaning of 'definitely-ini-about-Ave' at Zaid.

Sincerely, Zaid nodded before they parted ways and got into the elevator with Danu.

"Mother Lily rarely spoke seriously, but what she said was true. I hope Mas Zaid understands that" Danu said.

"I understand, Mas," said Zaid briefly.

Danu didn't drive Zaid into Ajie's study. He just knocked on the door, as soon as he heard the command from the inside he opened it and let Zaid in.

Upon entering, Ajie was sitting in the front seat of his desk. The man looked towards Zaid who was walking towards the table in calm steps.

"Who would have thought that you were finally standing here" Ajie said, grinning.

Zaid was silent. Stay cool. Standing up like this, helps her stay focused on her goals.

"Well, so what do you want to explain?" ask Ajie while leaning his back against his chair in a formal speaking style. Very different from yesterday. He didn't offer Zaid a seat. For him, the sooner he finished talking to this man, then the better.

"Sorry?" repeat Ajie half hissing. There was a mocking smile visible on his face. "After all this time? After years? After you wanted someone from my family?" Still emphasizing the formal tone of each sentence.

Zaid. "From the first time I tried, Jie. Don't forget that you're always avoiding yourself. She moved schools suddenly. You don't want to come at the reunion. You don't want to meet our old friends. You even prevented Natasha from bringing us together and threatening her to no longer deal with me."

Ajie tilted his head. "really? You're trying to apologize just that? Well, it was my fault." There was a sarcastic tone as he said the last sentence.

"It's not so, Jie... My life is not as easy as your shadow. I had to fight, I had to work and I had a lot of problems... "

"Where are the friends you are proud of? Did they help?" Once again Ajie threw a satire.

Zaid. His friends were only as many as the fingers on his hands. That helped him a little more. Not much but Zaid was still grateful to have them. Only, they also had their own difficulties. Her best friends also make the same mistake as her to Ajie. If he said their names, Zaid was worried that Ajie would get angry.

Seeing the sudden dark look on Zaid's face, Ajie laughed mockingly.

"Are those friends who helped you Ricky? Or Natasha? Hazmi?" ask Ajie. Zaid could not hide his astonishment. His eyes looked sharply at Ajie.

Ajie chuckles. His fingers knocked on the table several times before saying, "Do you think I don't know that you and Natasha are still very familiar? Maybe even your friendship is much better than me and him. Do you all think I'm still the stupid, easy-to-find Ajie I used to be? You're so wrong then."

Zaid doesn't want to know what Ajie will say next. It's not a new story for him to learn that Ajie's once infamous cold-handed side bulldozed fraudulent businessmen and those who stood in his way. It was only after marriage that Zaid saw this great change from the man before him. Although never in touch again, Zaid follows all of Ajie's progress through Natasha and the news channel. After all, Zaid learned a lot from him. The man was much tougher and more ruthless in the business world than he was. That was why he had always avoided conflict with Ajie all this time.

"Why? Still think I don't know that you and Natasha are so close? Until Natasha dares to take my sister to your company?"

Zaid sighed. "Gue hope you don't blame Natasha. He really only intended to help your sister, Jie. I was wrong. I'm in love with your sister."

"really? Is that sure you're with Natasha?" ask Ajie with his forehead raised next to it.

"When Avelia applied for a job, the vacancy she wanted had absolutely nothing to do with me. She should have been Jenny's assistant. Natasha also didn't know that from the first day I and Ave had met."

Ajie's gaze turned increasingly cold. "Then how did you meet? Can it be so close in just a few months? Even until you dare propose to him."

"How about I say it's fate, Jie?" There was a helpless tone as Zaid said it. He knew it would be hard to convince a man who hated him to the bone marrow like this Ajie.

Ajie grinning. It was definitely not a good sign, as it made Ajie stand up from his chair. "You already know that he's one of GE's heirs, right? What do you think Jaya was to you as a friend? Anyway Jaya is my wife's cousin, she told me that you've known for a long time that Ave is my sister."

Zaid sighed and smiled wryly. "Why don't you ask Natasha too, Jie? When did he know me and Ave were in love?" Not knowing what else to say, Zaid looked back at Ajie. "Can Ave's value only be calculated with the material, Jie? Your sister is much more valuable than that. I'm in love with Ave, not with his property or family. Whether you believe it or not."

Ajie. He looked towards Zaid. Not wasting any time, Zaid again said, "Gue knows you hate me, Jie. I also tried to stay away from your sister when I found out she was your real sister. I'm self-conscious. But I can't, Jie. Lu... What if you were asked to stay away from Lily? You can?"

"You're likening yourself to me and Lily?"

"It's not so, Jie. I'm trying to tell you the truth. I really can't stop loving Ave. Or the... " Zaid paused for a bit before convincing himself and went back to saying, "Lu can do whatever you want to me, as long as I can be with Ave. Whatever. You can hit me too."

"Whatever is that?"

The fine hairs on the back of Zaid's neck and back stood unnoticed when he heard Ajie's slow but meaningful speech. The eyes of the man who had been his best friend were dark.

Zaid knew he could no longer retreat.
