Unsaying Words
CHAPTER XIV - Meeting back

The next day, Chris forced himself into the office. His responsibility to work seemed to make him have to set aside his personal problems. At least, he needs a distraction from his tangled thoughts about his household.

Chris' slightly disheveled appearance, for some reason made his aura even stronger. The female employees actually admired her even more without her realizing it.

One of them even accidentally drops himself into Chris' arms, as if tripping over by his own feet.

But Chris swiftly convoluted which caused the employee actually fell down beside him. "Ouch!"

Chris just looked at the employee in pain holding his nose against the floor and casually closed the elevator door. Not one bit he felt sorry for the woman. All women are the same!

Rich who was left behind just stood still looking at the female employee who was slowly rising from the fall. Slowly but sharply, the man whispered, "Never do it again, if you don't want to be fired."

After that, he followed his boss into the elevator.

Inside the elevator, Chris looked at the shadow on the door that presented him. His hair was disheveled, his eyes were still black under him even though he was not too pale anymore, and his chin was a little dark because he was too lazy to shave it this morning. The only thing that looks neat is just the suit and tie.

Tending his head to the elevator wall, Chris let out a slow sigh. I don't know how long he can pretend to be this kind of good, he thought as he massaged his eyebrows firmly.

Exiting the elevator and entering the door of his office, Chris was able to concentrate again and prepare for the problems of the day.

Throughout the day, Chris had several meetings both online and offline. A stack of documents seemed arranged on his desk, waiting for a review and getting approval from him. Sighing, Chris had absolutely no time to think about anything else except to finish the job immediately.

The time had already shown at 13:00 when Rich entered his room.

"Boss, lunch now?"

He realized his stomach was starting to rumble. Chris looked at the watch in his hand. He also recalls dr. Herman yesterday to keep his diet.

"Where do you eat?" He asked his assistant.

"I've booked a place in one of the restaurants around here, because you will have a meeting schedule at 15:00 and 17:00. Then, Mr. Sutoyo yesterday called, asking for your time of about 30 minutes to meet at 18:30, but I have not given an answer."

Rich browsed through the tabs in his hands, checking his supervisor's schedule that day.

Chris' head began to feel heavy hearing his busy schedule. He probably should be overtime today. When he got up from his seat, his body slightly staggered.

"Boss!"

The worried Rich immediately approached Chris to support his body.

After making sure the boss can stand steady, Rich also release the handle.

"All right, boss?"

Chris was a little embarrassed for showing his weakness to his assistant. He never looked sick in front of others, no matter how sick he was.

"Yes, I'm fine. Come on, we'll go."

Without saying much, the two men immediately walked out of the office and headed for the restaurant mentioned by Rich earlier.

Entering his intended restaurant 15 minutes later, Chris realizes that this is the first time he has set foot there.

While looking around him, for some reason his body felt relaxed. I love the quiet and comfortable atmosphere in this restaurant. Lunch hours are almost past, causing restaurant visitors not too much.

"Why don't we ever eat here, Rich?" Ask Chris from the beginning.

"Sorry boss, I also just realized there is a new restaurant near here that just opened. It looks like it was only about 1 year ago."

With a smile, he continued, "His pleasure is fun, boss?"

Chris only nodded his head once, "Hemm."

After that, they ordered appetizers and a main meal. In silence, the two men spent their lunch solemnly.

For some reason, the taste of the cuisine in the restaurant made Chris suddenly feel homesick with his wife. He imagined that it was Rina who cooked the food for him.

I'm crazy, Chris thought.

As soon as possible, he finished his meal. While wiping his mouth, he turned his gaze around the restaurant that was starting to quiet down.

His gaze stopped on the back of a woman who looked behind him. The woman was talking to a male guest who had several tables opposite her.

Chris's forehead wrinkled. He knew the woman. He sharpened his hearing, trying to catch the words of the two people.

It seemed that the man's guest was satisfied with the food served, and wanted to thank the Chef who made the dish. But unfortunately, the Chef was having another activity that eventually made the woman who met him.

When their conversation was over, the woman turned her back and prepared to return to the kitchen. That was when Chris was shocked by his sight.

"Rin-Lina... " Whispers.

Seeing his boss dropping his lap on the table and looking stunned, Rich turned his back and saw his boss' wife seem to step into the kitchen unaware of both of them.

In a hurry, Chris immediately stood up to chase after his wife. He immediately grabbed his wife's arm and turned the woman's body.

Surprised, Rina turned around and met her ex-husband.

"Girl!" Pekik. He was really surprised by this meeting.

Examining his wife's face, Chris looks still stunned and has not said anything. Emotions seemed to be milling on his face. He was really confused what to say, obviously, he did not want to let go of his wife.

"Rina."

"Schris."

"Rina..."

After that, Chris' body collapsed in the arms of his wife. He fainted.

***

"What happened Rich?"

At that time, the three of them were in one of the employee rest rooms in the restaurant. Fortunately, the incident of Chris fainting is not too horrendous given the minimal visitors so they can immediately carry him to one of the rooms there.

Hearing his boss' wife's question, Rich could only shake his head.

"I don't know. Since returning home from a service trip, the boss has been looking unwell."

He later recalled that his boss had called his wife on the plane but did not get a response.

"Where are you really going?" Plain asking.

That's when Lina realized, that Chris did not tell anything to his assistant. This makes Rina think extra carefully, she does not want one of her words to cause a bad image about her ex-husband.

"Not anywhere." Answer's short.

Rina immediately turned her eyes to Chris who was in her lap.

She actually wanted to put Chris' head on the pillow, but somehow her ex-husband's hand just grabbed her shirt tightly and it was hard to let go. This makes Rina have to give up her thigh as a pillow for Chris' head.

Not long after, one of the restaurant's waiters came to bring her the eucalyptus oil she asked for.

After thanking him, he gently rubbed it around Chris' nose.

Noticing his boss who was gently treating the handsome man in front of him, made the young servant go all out.

"Who the hell, ma'am? So handsome!" Cheerful whispers.

Unwilling to cause any unnecessary excitement, Rina simply replied casually. "Guests."

Rina's answer caused a frown on Rich's forehead, but the man didn't say anything.

The smell of eucalyptus oil is quite stinging, making Chris finally began to realize from his stings. "Hmmm..."

"Please get me some warm water Cin."

The servant immediately came out to take the request of his superior.

Chris blinked his eyes, trying to adjust his gaze to the situation around him. Looking at his wife's face on it, made Chris aware of his current position. He tried to get up immediately, but had to lie back when his head was throbbing pain.

"Slowly wake up."

Gently, Lina massaged Chris' head. Treating his new wife this first time rubbed his head, making Chris close his eyes. He liked.

The waiter, Cindy, returned to the room with a glass of warm water.

Slowly, Lina arranged Chris's head so that the man could drink the water without having to choke.

I don't know why, Chris complied with his wife. He even finished a glass of water without much protest.

Lying back on his wife's thigh, Chris accidentally closed his eyes. He still does not want to move from his current position. He turned his head to his wife's stomach and buried his head there.

"Still dizzy Chris?"

The man nodded his head slightly without speaking.

Rich suddenly looked at his watch and slightly exclaimed, "Oh!"

Unpleasantly, he turned his gaze to his boss who looked still sick.

"Boss, meeting at 15:00. Do I need a re-schedule?"

Chris closed his face a little. His cheeks were blushing red at this moment, and he was trying to cover them up.

"What time is it?" The question is a bit hoarse.

"Hour 14.30."

Thinking for a moment, he finally decided.

"You represent me. Record everything. I'm going home."

Rich reconfirmed. "That means you're not going back to the office today?"

"No. Re-schedule for 17:00. For Sutoyo, make sure what he wants first. I don't want to meet him before there's clarity."

"Good boss."

Rich stood up and was preparing to leave the room when he remembered something.

"Boss..."

Slightly annoyed, Chris replied, "Moreover Rich?"

"How does the boss get home? I have to go to the office right now."

"Rich!"

Chris slightly snapped at his assistant. He doesn't want his mode to be discovered.

"Reverse to the office. Now!"

Not wanting the boss to pull out his fangs getting longer, Rich immediately left.

Cindy the waiter finally came out, because she had to prepare for the next shift. Previously, Lina also thanked the cheerful child.

In that narrow room, there were only the two of them left. While daydreaming, Rina rubbed the head of her ex-husband. Just this time he could feel how thick and soft Chris' hair was. Unknowingly, he played it on his fingers.

Suddenly Rina was awakened from her activity. He immediately got ready to get up from his seat.

"Where are you going?"

The grip of Chris' hand on his waist, made Rina finally sat back down.

"Chris, you need to leave immediately."

The man raised his head to face his wife. "Why?"

Chris' child-like face almost made Rina waver.

"Aren't you going home, Chris?"

Remembering that, Chris slowly began to rise from the position he liked. His brain began to think quickly. He has to do something.

After her ex-husband sat down perfectly, Rina again asked, "Want me to book a taxi?"

Chris looked at his wife and parrotted, "Witness?"

"Yes, taxi. To drive you home?"

Just this time Rina saw her ex-husband look unfocused and unwell. To be honest, he was starting to worry.

The man thought for a moment. "Can you just drive me?"

Chris' question was completely unexpected and he fell silent, not knowing what to answer.

Seeing the opportunity, Chris immediately snatched back before it was too late.

"I'm still dizzy. Afraid of fainting again." Reason that makes sense.

After some hesitation, Rina finally agreed.

"Alright, but I have to ask my superiors permission first. Can you stand up?"

Chris cheered, and he deliberately placed his hand on his wife's shoulder, as if in need of a crutch.

Slowly they left the room towards the dining room. After sitting Chris on one of the chairs, Lina immediately headed to one of the office rooms there.

The servants and servants for the next shift seemed to start arriving, and secretly noticed the uninvited guest.

They are accustomed to restaurant guests who come from various circles, especially among the money. However, only this time they saw a guest who came to the restaurant not to eat and just sit down.

The guest clothes look classy and expensive. One of the waiters even bet that his tie price alone might reach his month's salary at the restaurant.

His face, although looking unwell but showing a strong aura of authority. The man also had a strong facial structure and could be said to be handsome. Who her?

One of the maidservants looked curious and ventured up to Chris to ask.

"Hmmm... Good afternoon Sir. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Chris's gaze turned to the waiter. "No. I'm waiting for someone."

Chris' sharp and piercing gaze, seemed to make the female servant quite embarrassed. He eventually resigned and returned to his job.

Not long after, Rina came out of the room and was accompanied by a man.

Chris' forehead is wrinkled. He doesn't feel like it. Who's the guy?

"Good day." The man greeted me kindly.

Without getting up from his seat, Chris welcomed the man's hand, stale.

"Good day."

"Said Mother Lerina, are you sick and need her help?"

Lerina. Chris did not like the man to mention his wife's full name.

"Rubber. I asked him to take me home."

"Do I need to come? I'll definitely be able to help you later if anything happens"

Before the man finished his words, Chris cut him off.

"no need. I just need a wife"

"Girl!"

Rina shrieked and subconsciously smothered the mouth of her ex-husband, until Chris' head looked up slightly. For some reason, Chris' heart was delighted by this situation.

"Rest! That is, he just needs to rest."

Before Chris started saying anything, Lina dragged him out of the restaurant.

"Sorry Thomas. I'm a half-day permit, today. I'll replace it tomorrow."

The man named Thomas could only stare at their departure. He was accompanied by a number of waiters and restaurant officials who were also crowded staring at the departure of the two people while wondering. Who's the guy?
