Since the incident kissed each other in Gabby's apartment, Gerry has not met the girl. Not that he was avoiding, but because of work he had to go to Jakarta to take care of everything related to the legal matters of the company because the employer is still busy being a husband on standby for his wife who is pregnant young.
For 1 week in Jakarta, Gerry had to return to America to continue his supervision of the project with Anatar The Dawson and The Thomson.
Gerry also just found out that Figia is pregnant and the cause of her pregnancy is the man Gerry asked for help to take Figia to his room. Gerry was a bit sorry too but a little relieved because the man who turned out to be the younger brother of Brandon Alonso was willing to take responsibility.
Today Gerry left for the office feeling happy. Honestly, he misses Gabby and wants to see Gabby soon. While in Jakarta, Gerry never contacted Gabby. Not that he wouldn't. The amount of work there that made Gerry get to his house when he was really very sleepy. Also, he didn't know how to start a conversation.
As soon as he entered the company lobby, things still seemed quiet. It seems like it came too early.
Gerry entered his room next to Gabby's. The door is still sealed and that's proof that Gabby hasn't come yet.
While waiting for Gabby's arrival, Gerry opens a file of reports already on his desk.
For an hour Gerry read it until he forgot his purpose of coming in the morning at the office today.
After he closed his report, Gerry immediately headed to Gabby's room. On her knock the door with a pounding heart. After getting permission to enter, Gery opened the door and entered. He did not forget to close the door behind him.
Gabby who was writing something, raised her face to see who was coming. Gabby's face turned cold. He returned and continued his writing activity. Gerry is shocked to see Gabby's change in attitude.
"I'm sorry, did I bother you?" gerry asked as he sat in front of Gabby.
"Yes. I'm at work." Gabby replied a little sniffly.
"sorry. I'll come back later!" Gerry said standing up.
"I'll be busy until the office hours. If you want to ask me about the project report I've asked your assistant to put it on your desk." Gabby said without looking at Gerry.
"Sir, did I do something wrong?" gerry asked, puzzled by Gabby's cold attitude towards him. Didn't he leave before he could say goodbye to Gabby even if only by phone?
"You didn't do anything wrong." Said Gabby, still with her position. I don't want to look at Gerry at all.
"All right then, I'll go back to my room. I'm sorry that I interrupted your work." said Gerry immediately leaving Gabby's room.
After Gerry closes the door of his room, Gabby releases the pen he is holding. His eyes looked at the door of his already closed room with a feeling of annoyance. His feelings became confused. He's upset because Gerry's insensitive.
**********
Gabby spent all day in her room. He didn't even want to go out to lunch because he didn't want to see Gerry. He only asked his assistant to buy him milk and bread to prop up his stomach which did not feel hungry at all. But he knew he had to eat so he wouldn't get sick.
The hour hand was at half-eight in the evening when Gabby decided to go home. His assistant has been ready to go home since half-six p.m. Gabby believes that the office is quiet because the office clock is half six in the afternoon.
He tidied up his desk, smeared powder and a little lipstick on his disheveled face. Tidying her hair up. After that, turn off the lights and leave the room. He almost shouted in shock, seeing Gerry standing in front of his room with both hands in his pants pocket.
"What are you doing here, Gerry? You're surprising me." Gabby said and immediately stepped up. Gerry quickly pulls Gabby's hand and brings the girl into his arms. "I'm sorry....!" whispered soft.
For a moment Gabby's body stiffened. He's not moving. Gerry's embrace made his whole body feel weak. But when Gabby recalls that the man ignored her while she was in Indonesia, Gabby quickly pushed Gerry's body. It turns out Gabby's encouragement and drives Gerry's body away because the man is ready with Gabby's refusal. Throughout the day he thought about what caused Gabby to cheat on him and finally he found the answer.
"Let go!" Gabby punches Gerry in the chest, but the man is unwilling to let go.
"You can hit me as you like, I won't get mad. Because I know I've done something wrong. I'm sorry I never called you while I was in Jakarta. Not because I've forgotten you, but because I'm confused what to say to you."
"Stupid? Then when you kissed and hugged me, touched me with your caress that almost made me forget myself, you were still confused by what happened between us? Do you think I'm a cheap girl who just goes about kissing without feeling?" Gabby again pushed back Gerry's chest and this time the guy let go of his embrace. The two looked at each other.
"I know, Gab. Maybe I'm the one less brave to call you. While there, my work was very much. I even went home to my apartment and went straight to bed without changing my clothes. The considerable time difference between Jakarta and America makes me also not want to disturb your rest."
"A short message is too hard for you to send me?" .
Gerry's face was full of solutions. "I'm sorry, Gabby. I know I was wrong. I have never had a relationship with a woman for a long time. Maybe the last time I was in college. That's not a serious relationship either. I'm too busy with my work." Gerry approaching. In his grasp both sides of Gabby's face and raised it slightly for the girl to look at him. "I love you, baby."
Gabby's face turned red hearing Gerry's confession.
"I ......" Gabby is confused as to what to answer.
Gerry smiling. "I know that you may still be heartbroken because of Iel. Let me bandage your heart wounds. I'm sure I can make you fall in love with me. Let's open our hearts to happiness together."
"Why crying?" gerry asked, wiping away Gabby's tears.
"I'm happy." Gabby answered, making Gerry immediately pull back the girl's body to be in his arms.
After that, he made some distance between them and immediately kissed Gabby's lips very gently Gabby returned Gerry's kiss. The two kissed for a long time until they finally realized something.
"There's CCTV..." Their words simultaneously made the two laugh together and instantly left the place while holding hands.
Gerry invited Gabby to dinner. They went to a restaurant that Gerry had ordered earlier. Enjoy dinner with a happy feeling.
When the two are finished eating, Gerry surprises Gabby by giving her a ring.
"Married to me." Gerry said as he placed the ring in the red box in front of Gabby.
Gabby's eyes are perfectly rounded.
"I don't want to date you. Dating is an introductory process. We have known each other for 5 years. I want to get married, Gabby. I'm 31 years old. I don't want to spend a lot of time dating like ABG. You want to, right? Or you need time to..."
"I want to" Gabby replied quickly to Gerry's surprise.
"really?" gerry asked in disbelief.
"Quick put the ring on later I change my mind." Gabby said that she quickly took the ring and put it on Gabby's ring finger.
"She accepted my proposal!" Gerry's shout made the people inside the restaurant clap their hands.
Gabby became both happy and embarrassed as all pairs of eyes looked towards them.
2 Hours later in Gabby's apartment....
"Darling, we're getting married 2 weeks from now huh?" gerry said as he lay on Gabby's lap.
"2 weeks? Is this not too fast?"
"I told you that I don't want to waste time with dating. Your brother is here anyway. I only have one older brother who is married and lives in Bandung. Let's celebrate in Jakarta."
"As far as you are. I don't want a fancy party either. The important thing is that we are married before God and recorded according to the law, I am satisfied."
Gerry looked up and looked at Gabby. "Thank you for accepting me as a mediocre man."
Gabby holds Gerry's cheek.
"Who said you were mediocre? You are very special. Gabriel always said that he wouldn't be able to succeed like this if he didn't have an amazing assistant like you. And I'm so proud to be loved by you."
Gerry wakes up and kisses Gabby with all the love he has
"Tonight I'm not going home, am I?" gerry said with a seductive smile as their kiss stopped.
"Or don't be naughty?"
Gerry chuckles. "I can't promise...."
The two laughed together. To love and be loved is so beautiful.
