"Where can you like two people at the same time? Choose one, dong! Ji Chang Wook or Lee Min Ho?"
"My husband."
"What?!"
"I prefer my husband."
Once again he made me feel the strangeness in me. Saying that seems easy to him. Just like when he said he liked Ji Chang Wook or Korean actors who became his bias.
"You want a meeting, right?" ask Naya. "Then I go for a walk not to get bored."
He breezed leisurely out of the hotel by staying dressed and dressing up like that.
"Come with me!" I grabbed Naya's hand and took her into the car.
"What, anyway? Where are you taking me?" the protest, when the gas pedal started to step on me.
"You come with me to the meeting place! It's very dangerous if I let you wander off on your own, let alone with such an appearance."
"What kind of look do you mean?" asked Naya, with a grouchy face.
"Your ugly look!" my snapping. "Other times, no need to dress up, no need to wear a mini dress so! What the fuck? Make my eyes uncomfortable."
"Currently, you human lucknut!" snarl.
Of course, I felt uneasy about his unusual appearance. He will definitely attract a lot of attention of striped-nose men. The mini dress looks so sexy. If I let him be reckless and careless in this strange street, I will think to myself. I better take him. At least my mind will be calmer.

"Good day, Riani's mother." I greet a 45-year-old author who has published many horror and criminal-themed books.
"You're the young editor-in-chief of Glorya's office?" The woman extended her hand to me.
"Ardian Benedict Lim." I welcome his hand. "Ah, this is my wife, Naya."
"Hello." Naya shook Riani's hand with a slight bow of her head.
"Please sit down, Mom! Let's discuss the cooperation!" i said, please.
Riani took out a few sheets of paper containing handwriting and showed them to me.
"I don't like writing on the computer. I'd rather make a rough draft of handwriting like this" said the woman with the thick glasses.
"It's okay. Everyone's taste is different. There is no problem for us, to be written by hand or typed," I replied, while looking at a few lines of writing on the first page.
--------
"Please order!" A waitress approached and brought my order.
"Thank you" I replied. "How about we eat first, Miss Riani? We can talk about the contents of the contract after we finish eating."
"Of course."
Our activities at the dinner table began. Three servings of beef steak and three glasses of orange juice are served at the table. We also immediately ate the lunch menu with solemnity.
"Wow, this is so cool!" Naya's cry suddenly sounded quite shocking in the middle of our eating process. "This is a wonderful work. Mom's really great."
My wife looked at Riani with sparkling eyes. Handwritten draft of the famous author.
"I didn't know that in this country there are also writers of this genre of crime." Again Naya gave her compliments. "I feel like I'm reading great works like Agatha Christie."
"Do you like to read?" Riani stopped her eating and began to notice Naya's behavior.
"Like it" replied Naya. "I love to write too."
"Well, that's awesome!" exciting Riani.
"Not really, Mom. I'm just an amateur, really." The girl looked embarrassed. "But this Mom's work is so cool. I remember one of Agatha Christie's works, ABC Murders."
"It was Agatha Christie's first work to review the expertise of detective Hercule Poirot."
"Well, there it is!" Naya pranced happily while flicking her finger. "Even Gosho Aoyama-class comics, took the novel as inspiration for one of Detective Conan's manga series titled "Red Horse Killing Case."
"From childhood I loved reading detective series books. I think it's very exciting and adrenaline."
"Referring adrenaline? Hahaha ..." Laughter came from the professional writer. "You're so funny and nice to talk to."
"Hahaha .. is that so?" Naya's face was flushed with embarrassment. "If there is a chance, I also want to make a detective genre story."
"Don't just wait for an opportunity to come, but make it your own!" Riani.
The 45-year-old folded her hands on the table and looked deeply at Naya.
"Move according to your heart! Succeed or fail, it's your creator's business. All you have to do is one, try! Pretty simple, right?"
"You're right. I'll try to be as good as you, Mom, too" said Naya.
"good. Never give up at the beginning of your journey! Because of an effort, it will never betray results."
I didn't think that my decision to bring Naya along with me to come here was the right one. At least, he could get a little donor knowledge from this great writer who is in front of me. This will be good for the future development of his writing.
"Sir Ardian, it looks like we don't need to discuss the contract anymore!"
"Lho's? Why, Mom?" many confusions.
"Hahaha .. just relax! I am not canceling our cooperation, but I will accept the contract immediately without asking many more questions" he said with a friendly smile. "I believe in publishers like Glorya."
"Thank you very much. I'm very happy to hear your decision" I said.
"No, don't thank me!" saith. "Thank your wife!"
"My wife?!" my peek.
"Me, Ma?" Naya's not less hers than me.
"Yes. Because of meeting this wife of yours, I feel I have gained a new soul to continue working," he said accompanied by laughter. "Why, huh? It feels like your wife has shared a lot of imagination from our conversation."
"I ... imagination?" I threw my gaze at Naya who was glaring at Riani.
"Alright, we end our meeting here because I still have other work!" riani said as she moved from her seat. "Thank you for lunch, Mr. Ardian. May our cooperation be profitable."
"I'm on behalf of Glorya also very grateful because you have entrusted us to publish your book which is always a best seller."
"Gosh, you're overreacting, too much" he said as he shook my hand. "I'm also looking forward to the publication of your book, Mrs Naya Benedict Lim."
"A ... what?!" pekik Naya's. "I .. yes. Thank you, Mom."
The woman threw her smile at Naya while slightly patting my wife's shoulder.
"It's nice to meet and work with you guys. See you soon."
"See you." Naya and I slightly bowed their heads to accompany her footsteps away from us.
"We're leaving now?" I asked Naya.
He was silent, not responding to my question. His eyes stared blankly at the exit.
"Nay, what's wrong with you?" I wave my hand in front of his face.
"Ardian, I feel like my adrenaline's going up drastically" she said.
"What?"
"I want to be a great writer like him" Naya said with sparkling eyes.
"Hahaha .. gosh!" I took both hands and faced him. "You can be better than him. Know why?"
"Why?"
"Because you're Mrs Ardian Benedict Lim. The wife of a great and very handsome editor-in-chief," I said confidently.
"Geez, what the hell is that? Hahaha ..."
"Let's go for a walk!" I pulled his hand out of the restaurant.
"To where? Shouldn't we go home this afternoon? Your work schedule's over, right?" ask Naya.
"Indeed. But I want to stay one more day. I really want to go on vacation this time." I stood beside the car door while stretching my muscles. "You coming?"
"of course. Let's have some fun, Mr. Ardian Benedict Lim!"
"It is with great pleasure that Mrs Naya Benedict Lim. Hahaha ..."
