The (Former) Mafia
31. Dangerous

Nabila stared at the door of her husband's room with bulging eyes and frown, Bara could have accused him of cheating just because he accidentally passed the employee in his office earlier. After all, they didn't talk much, why did Bara come to have such a thought.

"Astaghfirullah .. Patience Nabila, patience!" he said as he stroked his chest and passed from that place.

"Let me take you to the room, Mom!" durant.

Again Nabila jumped in shock when he heard and saw Durant suddenly. These people were actually able to make Nabila almost have a heart attack.

"I already know where my room is. You better go in and help your boss, Durant!"

"Boss Bara?" ask Durant.

"Alien!" ketus Nabila's.

Durant gawked at what Nabila said. "Why is Madam Boss so angry? Is it not rationed yet, or is Boss Bara not mighty, but it is impossible!" murmured Durant while shaking his head and entering the boss' room.

"Boss!" call Durant in astonishment when he sees his boss' desk falling apart. But, what was more surprising was, his boss was seen relaxed in front of the sofa while paying attention to all the items scattered on the floor. "Is there an earthquake?" murmured Durant again. "I'll get it done, boss!"

"No, leave it like this for a while" said Bara with a smile on her lips. Durant was again stunned, for the first time Durant saw Bara liked the mess, whereas, usually not like that. Actually what happened. Think Durant again.

"Boss, how about your business trip to Bandung? Should we delay again?"

Bara was seen thinking for a while, he stared at Durant at a glance then lowered his head. "Just pour! We leave at the end of the year or early next year. I'd like you to invite some employees who will be involved in this process."

Durant nodded, he quite understood where Bara's direction and destination was now, he really didn't want to be away from his wife. Good riddance! If this boss has found a mooring of hearts, maybe Bara will be easier to tame.

....

One week after Nabila worked, he got used to it and started to enjoy the atmosphere of his work. Being more busy makes him a little forget about household problems that are not going anywhere. This time, the woman was seen pacing back and forth giving her sheets of paper to the people working under her.

"Try this one more attention. Don't just look at opportunities, think about their shortcomings too!"

"Good Mom!"

"It's as busy as it is" said someone from behind Nabila's back. The woman reflexively twisted her body.

"Pak Fino," muttered Nabila.

"It's lunch time, we better get to the office cafeteria now."

Nabila glanced at the watch on her wrist. The beautiful woman thought for a moment, she was at a loss as to what to say. Want to refuse, but also not feel good, if his invitation is accepted, he will definitely feel uncomfortable.

"We don't go together, there's Jessica, she'll accompany us!"

Hearing this, Nabila exhaled slowly and finally fulfilled the invitation of the man, even Jessica was behind Fino.

"What message do you want?" jessica asked with a less friendly face. Already a few days, he often saw Nabila Wara-wiri enter the Bara room, even though he was the notabenya Bara secretary, Bara, in fact, it is very rare to be able to meet Bara if not when there is a meeting with some clients only. Much of the work he was supposed to do was cut down and taken by Durant, his boss's right-hand man.

"Let me just be cool, Ma'am. What do you want a message?

"No papa" replied Nabila.

"Yes already, I want soto same meat rice. Drink some lychee juice!"

Nabila. "What do you want to order? Let's all!"

"I nasi Padang use minced meat, drink iced orange basil!"

Nabila nodded in understanding, he moved from his seat closer towards the waiter who was guarding at the cashier to make an order. After Nabila's departure the two people looked at each other with gazes filled with many meanings.

"He's pretty, isn't he?" ask Fino tho the point.

Jessica snorted, "Beautiful from where, look forward to me everywhere! Look at his appearance, not srek. Besides, it's like she's a gatel girl, almost twice a day she goes into the room of the Boss Bara. If you are not tempted by superiors, let alone try. Maybe, he could get into the company because he sold himself to our boss. Don't believe in your covered clothes. A lot of women today, who are hijab-wearing seem to be even more jerks than my model girls like this, Fin!"

Fino smiled slightly, she glanced at Nabila who was now back walking towards them. "Gue reckon Nabila's not that kind of person, really."

"Cihhhhh, I can't believe you Fin."

"By the way, I'm older than you Jess, why don't you call me brother anyway?"

"Okay, mending don't need cement if the rules are like that."

"Have you known each other for a long time?" ask Nabila when she starts sitting back. The woman accidentally saw the interaction that Jessica and Fino had just had.

"No, I knew him a year before he got into this company" Jessica said. "That's because of ...."

Duk!

"Darahhhhhh!" Jessica snorted after Fino kicked her leg uncivilizedly. How could Fino treat him like that. Does Nabila mean that much to him.

"Jessica's a freak, you better not listen to what she's saying. I knew him because he accidentally hit him. Yes plus a few months ago he came to work here!"

Nabila just nodded her head with a faint smile. It's not really important that they meet where, it has nothing to do with him. Only, Nabila felt awkward if he did not say anything.

The three of them look very familiar while chatting while enjoying their lunch. Moreover, Nabila, actually he was lucky enough to have friends in the office. But after the events of five years ago, Nabila stopped making friends with just anyone. There is a distance that he must keep, because it turns out not all friends will help us when we are difficult. Like this time, he only joined because of manners.

Nabila was not aware at all, if at this time, the husband was watching him from the corner of the office canteen. The man smiled wryly when he saw Nabila smiling. So happy Nabila chatted with others, but why when with him Nabila always behave ketus, not even rarely the woman did not have an expression. Was he so bad in his eyes.

"What punishment do I deserve, Durant? Should I torture him until he can't work anymore?"

Durant. For the first time he heard that sentence again in his boss' mouth. However, this time it was really very bad, Bara was angry with Nabila, right?

Nabila laughed again until his head was raised, but, when he wanted to go back down, Nabila turned to the side. The eyeball almost rolled, Nabila until he choked on his own saliva.

"Drink!" fino's decree offered Nabila drinking water. The woman shook her head while holding back with her right hand.

"I have to go" said Nabila hastily.
