I'm Not a Man's Own Taker
The Promise to Meet

After his meeting with Aunt Erna was over. Ellia decided to go home. And back past the teenagers who visit the counter with his leisure. Without regard to their views.

Before returning, do not forget Ellia also returned to leave the counter to Ritna. And said that he would be busy in the next two days. Because of something related to his current side job. As an independent property agent or broker.

Arriving at home, Ellia immediately put her car into the garage. And enter the house after previously greeting right in front of the entrance.

"Assalamu'alaikum, Mba'!!!" said Ellia

"Wa'alaikum hail, Neng. Did you finish your business at the counter?" reply and ask Mba' Nenang with a friendly smile. While his hands continued to be busy sweeping on the terrace of Ellia's house.

Yes, the house of Ellia that once looked very simple and unkempt. Before he took the initiative to renovate it back then. Now, over time and also the development of various aspects of the small village where he lived.

Having a house that stands on a large enough land and is in a strategic location. That is, on the side of road intersection four. Which if heading west, to the location of the middle school and also the Camat office. And if going North, the path to the daily market. For the eastern route to the tourist beach that crosses the simple housing complex. The south road is the road to the city.

After graduating from college and also having a job. Which of those jobs, right now he could have a special boarding building for princesses. And have an additional income from salary as a counter pulse guard. Which is even two more than him.

Not to mention, the salary as a property broker that although uncertain will get income from his work every month or year.

But, Ellia always thanked him and tried to enjoy his life and his solitude, right now. Although at his age who began to enter the age of maturity to marry, which is 27 years. Almost all of his classmates were first. Some have two children. He did not care and there was no thought to enter the face.

On the other hand, it was still on the same day. Inside his office, after all his work was done and the office hours had ended almost an hour ago. However, Evan is still sitting in his chair. However, he was no longer busy with the computer in front of him. Instead, busy with a smart phone in his hand.

After a while it was seen fiddling with the phone's screen. Now, Evan is seen sticking the flat object to the side of one of his ears. Apparently, he was contacting someone.

Tut's...Tut...

Long enough that tone sounded in Evan's ears. And in the next second, a soft voice from across the phone rang out there. Until, a smile was clearly imprinted on his lips.

"Hello... Who is this?" ask the voice of a woman behind the phone.

"Ehm... Hello too, Miss Ellia. It's me Evan." replied Evan after previously a little throbbing to reduce the nervousness that suddenly afflicted him.

Yeah, apparently Evan was calling Ellia's number.

"Evan??? Does Mr Evan own XX housing?" ellia asked to make sure she wasn't wrong.

"That's right, Miss." Evan replied briefly

"Ep... What's up, sir? Is there anything I can help you with?" tanya and bargain friendly Ellia.

"Do you have time? Can we meet again tonight? There's something I need to talk to you both." Evan replied with a question.

After a moment of looking at the screen of his phone. Ellia brought the flat object back to the side of her ear.

"What...this has something to do with our current cooperation issue, sir?" ellia asked to guess.

"No. It has nothing to do with our cooperation. This is a matter between me and you." Evan explained flatly.

"My problem and you. What does that mean...we?" elia asked, confused.

"Yes." answered Evan briefly. "Do you have time?" ask again.

"Em... shouldn't it be tomorrow, sir? And.. is not tomorrow we will also meet at the location of XX housing owned by Mr? For me to take photos of the housing as a complement to my promotion later." declined Ellia with the right reasons.

Because tomorrow they will meet again at the place they promised to be this afternoon. As Ellia mentioned it.

"Yes. We'll meet tomorrow. But, tomorrow it will be Arfan who will come with us. I'm not comfortable if I have to talk about what I mean in front of Arfan. So, can we meet at the restaurant last night, tonight? While we have dinner there later. How's it?" obviously Evan and repeated the question again which is the main purpose when calling Ellia earlier.

"That's it...?!" ellia understood. "alright. We'll meet at the restaurant in an hour. Because I have to finish this job first. Only then did it get ready." Ellia finally broke up.

Hearing that, Evan immediately smiled widely because of his happiness.

"alright. Thanks before?! See you later." said Evan while still smiling happily.

"Yes, I'll see you later. Assalamu'alaikum!" ellia said again before finally disconnecting her call.

"Wa'alaikum greetings." replied Evan.

Then stroked the chest because it felt relieved. Finally, his request to meet with Ellia, was granted. Despite from behind the phone, Ellia sounded lazy. But Evan doesn't care. In essence, Ellia had already promised to meet him. Which means, a promise must be kept. Otherwise it would have been a debt to Ellia to him.

"Boss!!!" call Arfan who suddenly appeared from behind the door. Without knocking on the door first. "Not going back?" tanyanya.

Evan was enjoying his happiness. A little surprised at the sudden arrival of Arfan. And the face that was previously decorated with smiles. At that instant, it immediately turned annoyed. And stared intently at his assistant and playmate since childhood.

Getting a look like that, Arfan just grinned the horse and pretended not to care.

"It's almost 6 o'clock. Do you still want to be in the office?" arfan asked the fool with the annoyance Evan had shown him.

"Yes, I know. I was just about to see you, earlier. Let's hurry back!!!" evan turned flat as usual.

Then go out of that room. Without caring for Arfan who called out to him.

"Yes. Don't play just go. Wait for me!!!" nagging Arfan while stepping quickly chasing Evan's long footsteps. "Based on Boss Arogan!!" his words were written, so as not to be heard by Evan.
