SURPRISE FROM THE DOOR OF THE PAST
Tonight, I will fulfill Gio's invitation. I told myself to ask Hafiz for permission. Neither did Hafiz know about Gio. I'll introduce her as Bella's mb friend. Oh no-no, maybe I shouldn't need permission from Hafiz.
An incoming message ringing me. Hafiz. Long live apparently he. I'm a gamang, lest he find out my dinner plans with Gio. Ah, I'd better be honest.
“Later tonight I did file Lala's wedding to Iqbal's house, which yesterday was lacking. You ati2 at home ya”
Duh. I've been thinking about getting caught. A little guilt riddled my heart. But then again, I'm not having an affair. Just dinner. Point.
Gio picked me up at home. As promised, he picked me up at 5 p.m. We went to the boutique which turned out to be quite far away, taking about 30 minutes. I think the right reason Gio picked me up early, is because later you will definitely need time to choose the appropriate clothes.
We finally arrived. A boutique that looks quite large, if you look at it looks like this is an upper middle class boutique. Immediately I opened the m-bank to confirm my account balance. Make sure how many numbers are safe to buy clothes at this boutique.
Thankfully, 8 digits are still left there. At least I will be more free to choose according to my wishes.
A boutique employee greeted us with a friendly reception.
“Mr Gio and Miss, welcome.”.
I smiled at her greeting, and we walked in. Rupaya Gio is well known here. I immediately followed Gio's steps.
“Dresscode like what”? much
“Em...biar assisted equally mbaknya ya” Gio replied sweetly. Then Gio gave some instructions to one of the officers. Not long after, the officer took out a pair of clothes.
Gio received one and the other was handed over to me. I became astonished. Who prepared all this? Where does Gio know my dress size? Still in astonishment, I stepped towards the fitting room.
What a beautiful dress for me. Simple yet has an incredible aura. The peach base color is equipped with a minimanis decoration on the chest, it looks sweet. It seemed impossible to be able to fit my body, if Gio had never known my health before. Strange to me.
Immediately I stepped out, in the corner of the room I saw Gio who looked amazingly cool with his tuxedo stellan. He gave an OK sign, with his fingers. I became blushed. It was special to our look today. I sat down next to Gio, not yet exhausted my curiosity, Gio again handed something to me. A pair of pretty shoes to perfect my look.
“Leak from whom? How can the size of clothes and shoes can fit gini?”, I asked when I finished wearing shoes.
“There is...”, Gio smiled sweetly. Waving hands to the officer who helped pack the clothes I was wearing. I grabbed it and I said thank you.
“This is our meeting gift, because you are willing to have dinner with me” Gio whispered something as soon as I found out about my gecagat trying to get the card out of the wallet.
“But this is too expensive..”I replied.
“Weak time and opportunity you gave me”, replied Gio.
I walked beside Gio, my confidence seemed to increase by two levels with this look. While walking beside Gio, go up another three levels. It was incredible. I'm sorry Hafiz, I'm not being double-minded. Just trying to enjoy a special role prepared by Gio. We walked to the elevator that would take us to the dinner location.
As soon as the elevator door closed, I saw the figure again. Just a glance, but I am sure clearly. That's him, who I met twice on the street yesterday. That blonde-lighted hair. I try to control my panic. A bad feeling suddenly came upon me. I try to stay calm.
We finally got to dinner. Looks like this is a special dinner. If you look at the breadth of the place, I think there will be many guests, but from the chairs prepared, only 8 people will be present. About who's coming this time. My mind was still fixed on the figure I saw in the elevator earlier. As if I knew that figure well. But I don't think it's possible.
Gio let me sit. Not long after the other seats were filled. There are 2 seats that are still empty. Apparently someone came late. I took a look around, it turned out that the whole present was a young executive who took each other's partners. Gio should have invited me this time. Gio explained that this is a formality, but it cannot be ignored.
There will be a cross-company Cooperation for the development of a large industrial area, which involves great entrepreneurs and of course private banking as a support. As expected, Gio was present to represent his company.
“Rupanya is present all, sorry for our delay”, female voice from the direction of the entrance. All those present turned their heads and stood to pay their respects. So did I.
Beautiful women with well-proportioned bodies and stunning looks stepped gracefully towards our table. Could he be the investor with the biggest share, so that all present look warmly to homage him.
It turns out that the show is just beginning. It was not this woman who received an applause of honor, because it turned out that she was only the secretary of the leadership who walked behind her. That figure. I was shaking looking at him. It turns out that he was the one I had seen for some time, including when I was in the elevator.
ZAKY
Maybe if I am not currently running the role of Gio's partner, I choose to run away.Someone who I have worked hard to throw from my life, now appears with a new look. Zaky has changed a lot, if you used to prefer to appear casual, Zaky who I see today became another figure.
A neat suit completes his appearance. Her hairstyle has changed drastically. My ex is transformed like a charming Korean oppa-oppa. Not to mention his face that now looks clean and emits an aura that certainly dribbles the desires of women.
I'm trying to control myself. Gio certainly can't know about my past with Zaky. I feel like I'm working with Hafiz. Desperate to go with Gio without asking his permission, this was the result.
Especially the one that will befall me this time. Someone from the past, who I had actually decided not to appear in front of me again, was now clearly displayed in front of me. I lifted my chin, to restore my confidence. Because since Zaky's arrival, I've been looking down more.
What kind of reality is this. What fate God designed for me. When I almost managed to rearrange my life with a new person, fate brought back Zaky to me.
But this time something was different, throughout the dinner, I didn't see Zaky glancing at me at all. As if they don't know each other. While me? Daritadi was wrong and busy stealing views with the presence of Zaky. Fortunately, Gio did not realize, because he was busy talking with other coworkers.
Time passed quickly, dinner was over. Everyone present shook hands and prepared to go home. How about this time with me? Is Zaky going to be normal? Or something bad is going to happen in this room.
Sure enough, it was Gio's turn to shake hands with Zaky. I followed behind him. I mustered my courage to look at Zaky. As soon as Zaky reached out, I greeted her with a slight tremble. The hue of discomfort clearly emanated from my face. I just don't want Gio to know this.
Unexpectedly, Zaky was being professional as if she didn't know me. Finished shaking hands he immediately went accompanied by his beautiful secretary. I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. Gio invited me home. I didn't make a sound, just complied and got into the car immediately.
My brain instantly froze, filled with scenes of encounters with Zaky. There's no way this is a coincidence. Obviously I saw him a few times. But what happened to him? That cold attitude? Could he have forgotten me?
