Malik still did not understand the purpose and purpose of Aldo's words. But there seems to be a connection with the issue that is currently circulating crowded in the company about him. Malik did not continue his questions and curiosity. Malik is afraid Ayu hears and blames herself for what happened to him at the company.
One by one the dishes had filled the dining table, everything looked very tempting. Aldo and Mr. Dodo are sitting tight because their task is done. Malik is still preparing a menu that has just matured into a butih-colored plate with a green flower motif.
“She hasn't finished bathing, not usually Ayu very long.” Malik put the dish on the table. “I'll catch up with Ayu for a bit.” Malik left Aldo and Mr. Dodo who had swallowed his saliva saw such delicious food before his eyes.
The sound of the door creaking resuscitated Ayu who was sitting pensively in front of the dressing table. Her hair was still a little wet and still messy. Malik who saw the look on Ayu's face immediately understood. Something made him worry. Malik stepped slowly, crouching in front of Ayu who was combing her hair. Paying serious attention until Ayu misbehaved.
“Don't look at me like that. I'm shy.” Ayu covered her face.
“Why shy, you are so beautiful today.” Ayu further tightened her hand that was still covering her face. “So that makes you sad?” Malik grabbed Ayu's hand and asked very seriously. Ayu shakes. Still hesitant to tell the truth.
“I'm very hungry. Is the food ready?” Ayu immediately stepped in to pull Malik's hand to follow him out after negating his instant hijab.
He avoided my question, why can't I read his mind. I should have known more about what she was worried about all this time. Malik sighed, his chest felt a little heavy.
“Nona, come quickly. I'm so hungry.” Aldo shouted as he saw Ayu coming out from inside his room. It feels difficult to hold his appetite when there are foods that are so good in the eyes.
“Ayu hastened her steps.” Pull Malik's hand to walk faster. Malik took two steps from his feet.
“Very much food. Thank you my husband.” Malik blushed in embarrassment as Ayu was being so sweet to him. Malik prepares the plate for Ayu. Tonight he wants to make amends so that Ayu is more cheerful.
Mr. Dodo just smiled at the behavior of young people who are very shameless. His time would not dare to say openly in front of a lot of people about a feeling. Life in his era is more closed, all follow the norm without misuse. Today more democratic, everyone can express their hearts and thoughts as long as they do not undermine religious norms and state regulations. The thought of Mr. Dodo who is quite old is meraja lela considering how the times develop.
“Pak Dodo.” Mr. Dodo was surprised Ayu called his name. “Come we eat.” Ayu thrust rice into Pak Dodo's plate.
“Good Non. I'm remembering the easy times I used to be Non. So dreamy me.” Smiling with dignity.
“Can I know how the youth in the days of Mr.” Ayu enthusiastically heard the history story. “It looks very exciting because it's been very long.” He began to put food in his mouth. Don't ask Aldo, he's even finished his first chicken thigh.
“Al, eat slowly. You're like you never eat.” Malik does not like Aldo eating in a hurry, harmful to health as well.
“Bos don't know, I just touched the food today. My stomach is so hungry!!!” Protests are not accepted because of all because of his role.
“But not too fast, you have to be careful.” Malik scoops the salad onto Ayu's plate. He looked at his wife who thanked him with a smile.
Uhukkkk…..
Sure enough, Aldo coughed because he ate too fast.
Puk..puk.
Malik patted Aldo's shoulder quickly. Events like this are not the first time. “I told you not to rush. Dangerous.” Ayu poured warm water on Aldo. The water immediately moved into Aldo's hands until it was not left.
“Sorry Boss. I'll eat slowly.” Aldo felt bad not to listen to the advice of Malik who worried him.
“Have not been angry, Brother Al also accidentally did it.” Ayu grabs Malik's hand to keep control of his emotions.
“I'm not angry, I just don't want bad things to happen to the people I love.” All were touched to hear the sincerity of Malik's words. He loved the people who were always there for him.
Everyone enjoyed dinner with love. It is not only Mr. Dodo and Aldo who love Malik, he said, the same feeling also Malik felt to them because all this time always faithful to accompany and always there in every state of Malik both happy and difficult.
Again Ayu looks uncomfortable and Malik feels it. His eyes could not lie, he was hiding the gloom at the moment. “Tell me, don't keep it alone.” Malik clasped Ayu's hand tightly.
“Can I really say it. This can be called a crazy idea.” Ayu's words made Malik narrow his eyes. Ayu set her breath repeatedly to be ready with what she was about to say.
Malik left the dining table, still not believing what he had just heard. Malik washes himself in the study. Ayu tapped it a few times and there was no answer. Ayu finally returned to the dining table, there were still two people who did not budge. Both are equally confused to say what, surely Malik's heart is broken to hear it.
“I just want to miss Malik, I don't want others to think badly of him. He's a person who means a lot to me.” Ayu's eyes glazed over, Mr. Dodo understood the intent of Ayu's request.
“Nona, speak slowly, maybe Young Master was just surprised by Miss's request just now.” Mr. Dodo tried to calm Ayu who looked sad. Ayu nodded and tried to hold back her tears.
“Bos must be very disappointed Miss. But it's actually the best path to the current state of affairs. Otherwise you two are both in danger.” Aldo agreed with Ayu's idea. But it's not that easy to get Malik to agree to Ayu's wishes.
“Thanks for always supporting us. I'm sorry for what I said you guys are not comfortable.” Ayu feels bad ruining the atmosphere of the dinner which was originally very pleasant.
Mr. Dodo and Aldo helped Ayu tidy up the dining table. They will refuse if Ayu asks her not to help. Better cooperation to be lighter, it's the words that always make Ayu give up asking them to stop.
“Susaha neat everything, is it okay if we leave?” Aldo could not leave Ayu alone because Malik was sulking.
“Nothing, I also still have a PR that I have to work on.” I smiled without a doubt. Do not have the heart to make Aldo and Pak Dodo worry about him.
Malik did not also come out of the workspace, has a variety of ways Ayu did but can not win his heart. Ayu had another idea that she was desperate to do, otherwise she would not be able to sleep soundly tonight.
“Sister Rey, I want to go home. Brother Malik no longer...”
Bruks…..
The door of the study room was wide open, and Malik came out after Ayu pretended to call Rey. His hand immediately grabbed the phone in Ayu's hand. Ayu's hands trembled slightly, but it was a little funny because Malik was easily lied to. Ayu gulped her saliva with great difficulty as she saw Malik looking at the screen of her phone. Malik sighed in disbelief at what Ayu was doing. Their eyes looked at each other. Ayu did not dare to speak because she had dared to lie to Malik.
“From....”.Malik told Ayu to come closer with her index finger.
He couldn't hurt me. He wouldn't dare, hahahhaha. But why am I so scared. Ayu shakes. His feet are still in place. Wanted to laugh but was afraid Malik was getting angry at him.
“Quick here! Or I'll punish you all night.” Ayu doesn't understand. But he had to obey Malik if he didn't want something worse to happen to him.
“Sorry..” Talk softly while approaching little by little.
“You have dared to lie to me.” Ayu. Ayu was not entirely afraid, it felt like she wanted to laugh because she managed to trick Malik easily.
“Why are you smiling.” Malik rounded his eyes when he saw Ayu's lips that looked mocking him.
“I'm not smiling, my lips are just itching.” Reason that makes no sense.
“I have never felt itching on the lips. So hunting you I'm funny.” Ayu shook her head, but this time she couldn't help but laugh. Ayu laughed out loud making Malik smile.
“I'm sorry, I don't want to sleep alone tonight. Look outside very heavy rain.” Malik looked at the glass of his apartment which was in the rain.
Malik can't get angry, he just can't get away from the woman he loves so much and wants to protect her. “Do not go.” Malik clutches Ayu's tiny body. “I can't for a second not see you.” Ayu felt the sadness that Malik felt. But there must be sacrifices for the benefit of the people.
“We'll talk about it later. We think of the best way out we can choose. I just don't want to make Brother Malik trouble.” Malik tightened his embrace.
“If I had to let go of everything for our happiness I would. I don't need anything as long as you're with me.” Ayu knows Malik loves himself a lot from anything. But the company he leads has thousands of employees who depend on the company to meet the needs of his life. This time Ayu should be able to persuade Malik not to be egosi because of his love feelings.
“I'm so happy Brother Malik loves me so big.” Ayu kissed Malik's cheek. The treatment was simple but made Malik feel very loved.
“Do not ask me to choose difficult things that I cannot do.” Ayu nodded. Talking to him with a heart like this will not work. He will not be able to be seduced if his effective attitude is emerging on the surface.
Malik is a very wise man at work, but in his personal life he still has much to learn to master his emotions and selfishness. Sometimes Malik can not accept the input of others how to be good in everyday life. He should be able to be more relaxed and not stiff so that others feel comfortable too. But that's Malik with all his attitudes and traits that are full of uniqueness. But still can make Ayu fall in love with him.
