Melisa's fingers dance on the keyboard. After a pretty gripping incident at the break in the afternoon, he returned to work as usual.
For lunch, Riland finally ordered it online. They had lunch with Leah and her boyfriend.
It was hard for Melisa to put on a cheerful face as if everything was fine. What happened was the opposite. He still felt an incredible shock.
And about Raya, Melisa no longer wants to be in touch with her. The words that Raya said to her made Melisa hurt. Although he was guilty, but it would be unfair if Raya judged him like that.
Raya repeatedly sends messages that contain words of apology. But none of Melisa's retaliating. Some messages were not even read. He took a quick glance and put his phone on the table.
What Melisa did certainly did not go unnoticed by Riland. The man always steals a look at Melisa and he feels dislike when Melisa keeps looking at her phone.
"Eat, Mel ! Reply to the message later," Riland said. There was a sense of jealousy that slipped into her heart as she looked at Melisa who was still watching her phone.
"Don't let me confiscate your phone" threatened Riland.
Melisa obeyed her boss's orders. He put down his phone without seeing it again, and he continued his lunch.
And this is where he now returns to work in the chair opposite to Riland. And strangely after the incident, not once did Riland leave his place. He will always be near Melisa.
If Melisa goes downstairs to meet Leah, then Riland will follow her. And if Melisa returns to the second floor, Riland does the same.
The busyness made Melisa forget her problem for a moment. Although he knew that his business with Raya had not been completed.
Time showed at five in the afternoon and it was time for Melisa to go home. Melisa also tidied up her work desk, while there Riland also prepared by wearing his jacket.
Melisa gulped her saliva forcibly, when the temptation that Riland gave her was even greater. The boss was wearing a black leather jacket over his white shirt. Makes her look hotter.
"Oh my God, he realized that he was very handsome," Melisa's mind in the heart. Even though her heart was in a state of turmoil, but Riland's charm could always hypnotize her.
"Are you ready ?" Ask Riland from across the street.
"Huh ? Ready how, sir ?" Melisa's asking doesn't understand.
"Are you ready yet ? Come on, let me drive you home !" Compared to a solicitation, what Riland had just said was more like an order because the man immediately stood up with a car key in his hand.
Just now Melisa was about to say a word of rejection but Riland had already walked down the stairs first. So inevitably Melisa also followed him.
Arriving on the first floor the two were startled by the presence of Raya standing in the frame of the shop door. The man did not have the courage to step his foot inside, but he also could not step back to leave. Raya has to meet Melisa and talk to her.
"Ngapain Lo here ?" Hardik Riland doesn't like it. He walked towards the door, approaching the Kingdom that would not budge where he stood.
"Gue just wants to talk to my girl" Raya replied without looking at Riland. Both of her eyes were only on Melisa who was standing far away from her.
"After what Lo said to her earlier, Lo thought she still wanted to be Lo's girl ? Riland asked again, but Raya didn't seem to care. He paid no heed to Riland's words at all.
"I beg you, Mel. Let's talk," Pinta Raya. His eyes that looked at me also begged the girl who saw him timidly.
Melisa took a deep breath, although she still felt fear because of the attitude of Raya last afternoon. However, the problem between the two must be resolved immediately. Melisa can't run away from her problems, she has to face them.
"Alright" Melisa replied. Making Riland who was standing in the middle of them turn his head to Melisa. He saw that he did not believe the girl. Suddenly his feelings became mixed.
"Mel ?" Riland asked timidly. He moved his foot back to the girl. "Are you sure you want to talk to him ?" Ask Riland.
Melisa nods her head in response.
"But he...,"
"I want to talk to him in the open. You don't have to worry that she will hurt me" Melisa replied, who thought that Riland was anxious because she was afraid that Raya would hurt her like that.
Riland was eager to ban him but he had no right to do so. With a heart filled with jealousy, Riland allowed it. " Okay, but you're talking at the cafe in front of the store. Let you be safe, for I will watch you from here" said Riland undeniably. His sharp-shrinking eyes hinted at it all.
"Be-well,." - Melisa agreed.
"What Riland said, we'll watch you from here. Or maybe I'll go to the cafe too to make sure you're okay" whispered Leah.
Melisa turned her head to Leah and she nodded in agreement. "If so, I go first" said Melisa, saying goodbye to her boss and co-worker. Melisa also walked towards the Kingdom that was still standing in the door frame.
"Let's talk but in the cafe in front of me," Melisa also showed the place referred to by her index finger. It's not far away, it's still within eye range. All they have to do is cross the road to get there.
Just follow Melisa's index finger. He also saw a simple cafe. It is not a fancy cafe but it is quite convenient to visit. "Alright," said Raya.
"Where are you going ?" Melisa asked as she looked at Raya walking in the other direction.
"We use a car" replied Raya.
"Not to ! We're on foot. Stay nyebrang doang," refused Melisa. There is a worry in him. He was afraid to take her somewhere else.
Feeling that she needed Melisa, Raya agreed. They walked together, crossing the street to get to the cafe.
"Hi Mel" said a waiter as Melisa stepped in. Of course he recognized Melisa because the girl often came to the cafe. On the contrary, the waiter occasionally came to where Melisa worked to shop.
"Oh hi" said Melisa.
"Table for two ?" Ask her again, and Melisa nods her head justifying.
" Ok, wait, yes" he said as he went to find a table. The state of the cafe is quite crowded because a lot of teenage children are spending their time there.
After waiting for a while, the waiter returned and gave a table number located in the corner of the room. It is suitable for Raya and Melisa who will talk to each other about their relationship.
Now the two sat facing each other. Waiting for a coffee order that has not yet arrived. Raya looks restless, her body can not stop doing small movements. Melisa just sat quietly in her chair.
"Thank you," said Melisa when the order came that is a glass of avocado iced coffee that became a best seller at the cafe. While Raya ordered black coffee with a little sugar. It seems that the man really needs it.
Both of them sipped their coffee at the same time. Raya took a deep breath before she started talking. "Mails,"
"Raya, Sorry... I can't continue this relationship" Melisa said ahead of the man's words.
