Her.. A Choice For Me
ANGGARA'S AIM

On the way to the parking lot, Mahen had crossed his mind, maybe before taking Naya to work, he seemed to have to speak seriously and if forced, he should, he will take a difficult decision about his relationship with Naya for now.

Mahen circled his car and opened the left steering wheel door for Naya, shortly after the two had put on his seatbelt, and making sure Naya was in her comfortable position, Mahen ventured to start the conversation. Honestly, whenever an event occurred that related to the safety of her girl, her lips seemed to be confused, she felt that she had apologized too much to him, even in the present situation even though he had breathed a few times, Mahen was still heavy to open his voice.

" Naya, I don't know how often I apologize to you but it always happens again and again. So for this time, if you want me to stay away, I will do it for a while until you feel comfortable again. Maybe with me away, they won't bother you anymore ". Mahen was powerless to face his girl's face as he spoke this time. His heart was like being squeezed by concrete walls from all directions, tight and sick.

" If you stay away, are you sure all this will go peacefully as you want? if I asked Brother to stay, would you refuse him? I honestly don't know what's going on, why me and what's going on with me? my head had been in a lot of pain lately and some memory pieces like the events of the past slowly reappeared. Some days I am even afraid to close my eyes, afraid that if a piece of my lost memory is a source of disaster for my surroundings. Only Brother understands my condition without me having to say much. Then when you leave, who else do I share a feeling that I can't share with others? ". Indeed, Naya wants to cry at this time, actually she wants to meet her ummi at a time like this. If Mahen left her, who would he depend on? perhaps Naya was still half aware that she was already half used to Mahen's presence by her side.

Mahen sharpened his ears as Naya began to speak softly while turning her face to see the girl sitting next to him now. Mahen still half-believed, that his quiet Naya had just said a long sentence full of hope for his presence. His heart immediately warmed back up, the crimp of concrete that stifled his heart as if crushed just like that. Apparently Naya still needs her.

" Ainnaya's... ". Mahen tried to reach the girl's right palm that was open and was beside the brake lever, he suspected Naya would pull over, but unexpectedly, Naya's fingers actually held her hand tightly. Mahen then linked their fingers, hoping that holding hands like this would give each other strength back for both.

" We're going to ummi for a while, still have time, right? ". Mahen asked then a while after the two of them both exhaled a long breath of relief.

" Kan, you know what I want even if I don't say ". Naya Sumringah looked towards the man beside her.

" Because I am you ". Mahen came smiling to see his girl back cheerful.

Due to the condition of the quiet road to the Ummi cemetery, they did not take long so they arrived faster in the cemetery area. Perhaps because today is a weekend, the atmosphere in TPU Cambodia this afternoon looks rather crowded visited by pilgrims. After being in his ummi tomb, Naya then crouched down, stroking her headstone with a feeling of longing like caressing someone she had not met for a long time. On the other side of the tomb, Mahen was preparing to lead the prayer, although a few minutes had passed but both were still dissolved in a solemn atmosphere.

" Ummi, Abang has just expressed his intention to stay away from me, even though Abang has promised the same ummi want to take care of me. Marahin to mii ". After reading the prayer, as usual Naya started a conversation like she was chatting with her mother. The tone of speech in the sentence spoken by Naya sounded very spoiled and sweet that was caught by Mahen's ears.

" Ga so Mii, I'll keep her as much as I can ". Mahen chimed in Naya's words with a serious face to make Naya laugh at Mahen's attitude as if talking directly to her Ummi.

" Sister is afraid, Ummi I don't know that ". Sahut Naya girang felt that he had succeeded in raving Mahen who sometimes still looks stiff despite being in a relaxed atmosphere when with him.

" Would you tell me to ummi, who ". Mahen replied with a reason that actually made Naya smile sweetly.

" Mii, I give up my job first yes, Abang also wants to return to Jakarta again. Keep brother there yaa mii, report to me that Brother is naughty ". Naya is still nosy.

" Mii, Ummi knows I never fucked up in there, right? ummi's son likes to be suspicious ". They looked at each other and laughed together. Relieved, at least both of them have now known the wishes of their respective hearts. Expecting more and more days the sense they have grows stronger to be able to dispel all difficulties that come later in the future.

The clock on Mahen's left hand shows at 12:10 p.m., the time to return to the city center and drive Naya to her workplace. Fifteen minutes later the car they were driving had entered the Mall's parking lot. Mahen deliberately parked his car in the back near the parking lot of employees so that he can take Naya to the front door of the employee and see her enter the largest shopping center building in this city. When Naya will climb the stairs of the corridor, Naya advised Mahen to be careful when going back to Jakarta later, but it seems Mahen did not intend to leave this city until Anggara came back with her.

***

Meanwhile, inside the Mall.

Anggara walked down several floors of this Mall because he was deliberately waiting for Naya to go down to the floor, he intended to introduce himself directly this time in front of the girl with the hope, he said, Naya will recognize that she is the original figure from the photo album that she once sent to the girl.

Anggara apparently did not realize or maybe he did not get information from his men that Naya, still often difficult to be able to remember someone's face when only met or saw a glance. Still remember when Mahen tried to approach Naya first, despite having met face to face with Naya even, her presence was not touched by the girl.

The hope seems to remain hope for Anggara, his men did not succeed in persuading that the girl can go down to the floor even though for a while, it seems that Naya can not really go down to the floor today. Because currently Naya is very busy to revise the design that her Store Manager submitted to the headquarters for additional events in the Mall when the stamp goes meh later.

" Dear, I send a snack for your friends in the room, so you don't have to go to the cafeteria or go out just to find food. In order to finish the job and you do not need overtime, the spirit of ngedesign yaa, I know you can definitely ". Naya opened the incoming message on her mobile phone inbox, along with that two bell boy asked permission to enter the staff VM room by carrying some papper bag containing food and drinks. His lover is the best, always knows his needs without the need to say many words.

" Darling? honey, I'm calling ya, want to hear you say that word directly ". Mahen seemed very enthusiastic, but only a word - Ayang - that he read.

" No, I was wrong to write. It should be Brother ". Naya chimed in on Mahen's message while laughing loosely behind her desk.

" Heemmmm, habit.. Thanks darling. I'll pick you up tonight ". Close Mahen. He actually did not want to end his short conversation with Naya. He did this because at first glance it was like seeing Anggara circling floor by floor. I don't know what he was looking for, but it is strong allegations that like his Anggara waiting for Naya to come down to the floor and intend to greet him.

Mahen put his cell phone back in his shirt pocket. Then slowly he followed Anggara's steps from the opposite direction until they met at one point and the two threw eyes at each other.

Anggara then approached Mahen first, greeting him while reaching out to shake hands.

" Hey bro, what are you doing here? ". Anggara asked starting the conversation.

" We're sitting at the rock coffee stand there, if you don't mind ". Take Mahen to Anggara.

" Well by chance, I'd like to talk to you too, bro ". The two then headed to a booze stand on the east side of the Hall mall. They then choose a seat in the corner of the cafe room to be more privacy because the cafe situation is quite crowded at the weekend like this seems a little disturbing the conversation they will discuss later.

" To the point, I salute the girl. He dared to trick me this morning ". Anggara started without a stale base.

" Why can you handle that with an Angga woman? You also have a little sister, have you ever imagined if your sister was in the same position? . Besides why it must be my woman, doesn't Young Master Sumitra never lack a woman by his side? ".

" Ckckck is just a subordinate, what a loss for you Mahen. Be honest with me, what's your motive for approaching her? it's the same as me, isn't it? ". Accuse Anggara of Mahen.

" Cih, very low. I don't see who the superiors and subordinates are, all humans are the same Angga, especially women ". Mahen does treat all his team as his best friend. For him there is no social status, all the same. Although Mahen still did not understand what Anggara meant then he decided he would continue to make his talk.

" Mahendra, who has never once treated a woman with distinction, now gives a girl extra layered protection, so hard to reach? What is the purpose if it is not about power, right? the girl turned out to be the key to opening the gates of the other world. If that's your goal, then my goal is more than that. Or put it this way because we are both interested and have almost the same purpose, maybe we can share, it seems that the girl is still a seal. Hows it? ". Anggara has unwittingly opened up some of the mysteries Mahen wants to know.

" Brotherly, how bold ". Mahen stood up from his chair, he was furious, his hands clutched tightly while pulling the Anggara shirt forcefully until his opponent was lifted from his chair. Anggara's burly body and Mahen threw a wall to make a noise. Anggara grimaced with Mahen's sudden attack. Some cafe employees then came to break them both. Mahen seemed to be not satisfied teaching Anggara directly, he ignited emotions. How dare Anggara harass his girl. The cafe supervisor then requested that the two of them calm down if they did not want security to expel the two of them from the place.

" Haha.. Mahendra, don't be your hypocrite. You and I are the same and one goal ". Like his Anggara was deliberately provoking the emotions of Mahen in public places. Instead of replying to Mahen's punch earlier, Anggara actually laughed loosely after the gaze around normal returned.

" You're crazy. But I admit, I do have a purpose and a purpose in approaching it. What do you want? ". Mahen realized, he did not have the latest information about his lover and it seems Anggara already knew it first.

" I guessed it. Tell you what, make access for me so that I can approach her in a subtle way. Once he believes in me and is complacent, then I am entitled to have it the first time. After that it's your turn and we make him..... ". Aggara vomited, probably the effects of drunkenness due to the wine he drank quite a lot this morning when in the private room hotel.

[S*al, a little more ]. Inner Mahen.

[You want information from me? B*doh once you're Mahen, I can't possibly be that easy to tell you valuable secret info, hahaha ]. Anggara felt satisfied to have pranked his rival.

Anggara pretended to be drunk and vomited in the cafe so that it caused a commotion back in the room. Before long, two of his bodyguards then came carrying him away after paying his boss' bill.

Mahen who had recorded a fragment of his conversation with Anggara, then sent the voice recording to Naya's phone. He plans to discuss this with his girl tonight, hoping Naya doesn't misunderstand him.

[ Anggara.... The opponent is worth it to me this time. Mahen is smart to choose a strategy to protect Naya this time ]. Just now Mahen was relieved, a new problem had emerged. His mind is back.
