The Love of Mr and Young Miss
Surprise

Drt

Devian's phone shook, he immediately opened an incoming message and read it. Instantly made him smile on his lips.

I miss you too, my dear.

Devian's reply was quick but the message was just one check.

Devian breathed a rough breath and put his phone on the bed. Devian headed towards the balcony of the room to breathe the night air and stared at the sky filled with stars.

"Maybe Rissa is busy with her duties. At least he always misses me." Devian muttered inwardly.

Suddenly Devian remembered something, with a flash he came out of the room. Devian rushed to his father's study to discuss something very important.

Tok Tok Tok

Tap Devian slowly on Dad Adhitama's office door.

"Come in, Dev." said Adhitama from inside the room.

Devian opened the door slowly and walked over to his busy father in front of the laptop screen.

"Did Dev bother Dad?" ask Devian carefully.

Adhitama raised his head and looked at his son's face.

"No. Sit, Son. What's the problem?" tanya Adhitama tried to read the look on Devian's face.

Devian pulled out a chair and sat down in front of Adhitama.

"Dad, Devian wants to get married to Carissa immediately" Devian replied after adjusting her breathing.

Adhitama scrunched his forehead, he already knew about Devian's plan but tried to pretend he didn't know.

"You sure?" tanya Adhitama made sure.

Devian nodded his head quickly.

"Why rush?" ask Adhitama again trying to find out what was on his son's mind.

"Dev can't stand having to stay away from Rissa, Dad. It's so torturous. Dev wants to get married to Rissa. Dev wants to make Rissa always be next to Dev." replied Devian steadily.

Adhitama chuckles at the answer of his son who seems very possessive.

"Son, getting married doesn't mean you'll always be side by side. If you curb Rissa will she not mind? After all, Rissa must have a dream that she wants to realize." said Adhitama gave understanding Devian.

"But, a wife must obey her husband. If I don't allow Rissa to mean she has to follow him, right?" ask Devian again.

Adhitama sighed softly then looked seriously at Devian's face.

"Son, it's Daddy. It is true that a wife must follow the word husband. But that doesn't mean the wife can't realize her dream, right? Don't be a zholim husband. The task of husband and wife is to maintain each other, support and respect each other's decisions in order to create a harmonious relationship. Later do not get bored to always negotiate with your wife in making every decision. Don't impose a will that will make you hurt your wife, son." Adhitama patted Devian's shoulder gently, hoping that his son would be a good and responsible husband.

Devian fell silent and tried to reflect on every word his father had said.

"Father's right. Dev is too selfish" said Devian, who was greeted with a warm smile Adhitama.

"For your marriage to Rissa isn't everything ready? Just waiting for Rissa to come home, right?" tanya Adhitama who has prepared her son's wedding.

"Yes Dad. Everything is ready." Devian answered excitedly.

"Dad hoped you could be the man your wife could always rely on. Be the man in charge." a message from Adhitama.

"Of course Dad. Dev will love Rissa with all his body and soul, Dev will never let Rissa get hurt." Devian said steadily.

"good. This is just Adhitama Mahendra's son." said Adhitama proudly and hugged the only son of his puppet.

"Thank you so much Dad." Devian returned his father's warm embrace.

"I will always try to make my future wife happy" Devian said in his heart.

Tomorrow, Devian is in the company. At 09:00 Devian will have a meeting with an important client.

"Alex, have you prepared all the documents we need at our meeting this time?" tanya Devian made sure.

"Just calm down, Dev. Everything's ready." Alex replied as he handed over the documents Devian had intended.

"good. Let's meet our potential big business partners soon." said Devian excitedly.

Devian rushes to the meeting room, followed by Alex who walks behind him. Devian sat down while preparing some documents. Devian and Alex deliberately entered early in order to welcome their clients well.

10 Minutes later, the meeting room opens. Enter a young man who might be Devian's age. The man was sturdy in stature, the same height as Devian. His skin is ripe sapodilla, black hair that is crested in front of him.

"Morning, Mr. Arya." welcome Devian who stood followed Alex and then let his guest sit down.

"Don't be too formal. Just call me Arya. Looks like we're the same age." said Arya Dwitama as she shook Devian's hand.

"I think it's disrespectful, sir." said Devian, throwing a probing look.

"Don't hesitate, Devian. Don't we hope our partnership goes well? It's good that our relationship can be familiar like a friend so that there is no awkwardness." said Arya threw a smile at Devian.

Devian was still staring at Arya confusedly.

"Alright, Arya. Just like you wanted. But I hope we stay professional" said Devian, trying to shake off all his thoughts about his business partner.

"Of course, Dev. You don't have to doubt my abilities." said Arya full of confidence.

The relationship between the two young men was agreed. Arya leaves Devian shortly after signing a letter of agreement.

"I hope our cooperation will be very profitable" said Arya with a smile often.

Devian just nodded his head then smiled faintly.

"Why does my gut feel something bad with our co-workers this time?" alex asks Devian who feels the same way.

"Husse! Shutup! What if he hears it." said Devian staring at Alex nyalang.

"You better find out who Arya Dwitama is. He is a very promising business partner. But let us not be disappointed. Try to investigate his personal life, his family even the problems he is facing right now." Devian orders Alex in a whisper.

"Ready, Boss!" alex quickly leaves Devian.

Devian reached into his phone in his pants pocket and opened the messaging app. There was no reply from Carissa, even the message Devian sent last night still ticked one.

"I miss you so much, Carissa." said Devian inwardly.

By noon, Devian decided to have lunch at a restaurant near MF Group. Devian occasionally opens his phone hoping for news from Carissa. But until Devian finished eating his lunch, there was no news at all from Carissa. Even over and over again Devian made a call none of which was connected. With a troubled heart, Devian returned to his company. Devian wanted to take a moment of rest to eliminate his baldness.

Devian had already entered his room, then he took off his suit and laid his body on the mattress in his resting room.

At the same time, Carissa's plane landed at the capital's airport. Carissa got out of the plane at a definite step, she was already impatient to meet her parents. Moreover, the idol of his heart, Devian. After Carissa was in the baggage claim place, she activated her phone. There are incoming messages from Mama Allisa and also Devian. Without a second thought Carissa called Mama Allisa.

"Assalammu'alaikum, Ma." said Carissa softly.

"Wa'alaikumsalam, son. Arrived in Jakarta?" mama Allisa asked impatiently.

"Alhamdulillah, Mother. It's still at the baggage claim" Carissa replied.

"The same mom Papa was waiting at the arrival door, darling" Mama Allisa told her daughter.

"Good, Ma. Wait for Rissa." said Carissa eagerly.

20 Minutes later, Carissa dragged her suitcase to the arrival gate. From a distance his eyeballs caught two middle-aged couples already waiting for him with faces full of longing. Carissa accelerated her footsteps toward her parents. Cakra and Allisa welcome the arrival of her daughter with warm hugs and haru feelings. The three men were treating their longing.

"Thank God you come back safe, son. Congratulations on your graduation." said Cakra proudly and then kissed his daughter's forehead.

"Thank you very much, Dad." Carissa increasingly tightened her embrace on the man who will always be the first love of her life. Cakra's body is still burly despite its age of half a century.

"Mama misses you so much, dear" said Allisa who snatched Carissa from Cakra's embrace.

Carissa chuckles at the behavior of the beautiful woman who has given her life.

"Rissa also misses Mama very much" said Carissa who hugged the spoiled body of Mama Allisa.

Alissa hugged Carissa tightly and showered her daughter's face with a kiss. Carissa chuckles amusedly with the treatment of Mama Allisa.

"Already, Ma. Rissa is amused." said Carissa who was greeted by the laughter of her parents.

"alright. Let's go home." invite Cakra after being satisfied to vent the longing on his daughter.

"Pa, Mama. Rissa's not coming home." reject Carissa carefully.

"Where are you going, honey?" ask Mama Allisa astonished.

"Where else would it be if it wasn't Devian." said Cakra who could read his daughter's intentions.

Carissa chuckled at Papa Cakra's 100 percent correct speech.

"It looks like Papa's gonna have a rival scrambling time to be with my daughter. This middle-aged man has already been cast away." joked Papa Cakra by putting on as sad an expression as possible.

"Bu-not that, Pa." said Carissa unpleasantly.

"Don't listen to your papa, honey. You better meet Devian now" said Mama Allisa immediately holding Cakra's hand that had dragged Carissa's suitcase.

"Well, Mama Papa be careful on the road." Carissa waved to her parents who were already heading to the car park.

Tut Tut Tut

Carissa called Devian but there was no answer. Carissa immediately took a taxi that had stopped in front of her. Carissa intends to meet Devian directly in her company.

30 Minutes later, Carissa arrived at the MF Group. Carissa rushed towards the lobby and greeted Tiara.

"Well, Rissa? You're back yet?" Tiara is surprised to see Carissa coming.

Carissa immediately approached Tiara and placed her index finger on Tiara's lips.

"Don't be loud. I don't want any commotion." whispered Carissa who was replied with a nod to Tiara's head.

"sorry. I'm so glad you're back. The north pole has returned to its cold mode since you've been abroad." whispered Tiara to Carissa's small laugh.

"You dare to call your boss who is also your friend's lover. You're not afraid I'm complaining?" carissa.

Tiara instantly fell silent and patted her softly.

"Stupid me!" as Tiara realized her attitude that invited Carissa laughter.

"Let's calm I'm not that bad." said Carissa still chuckling at Tiara's panicked expression.

Carissa enters the elevator and presses 10.

Ting!

The elevator doors opened, Carissa rushed into the room of Devian, CEO of MF Group.

Carissa knocked on the door but there was no answer from inside.

"Could Devian have gone home?" carissa muttered that opened the door slowly.

Carissa found the room empty. He stepped very carefully. Carissa's eyes were fixed on the door of Devian's resting room that was slightly open.

Sure enough, Carissa found Devian asleep. Carissa walked over to Devian's bed and looked at the handsome face of the man she missed. Carissa undoes her intention to wake Devian who looks very tired. Carissa chose to sit on the soffa and straightened her slightly achy legs while waiting for Devian to wake up.

Time has shown at 4 pm, but there is no sign of Devian will wake up from his sleep.

"Is he very tired? Why didn't you wake up yet." Carissa grumbled that she was getting tired of waiting for Devian to wake up.

Carissa went to the bathroom to wash her face. The sound of the water tap woke Devian up.

"Who's in the toilet?" ask Devian in heart.
