This morning, Xena was back waiting for Rayan in the lobby. With a cup of coffee in his hand.
‘’Nungguin sir Rayan again?’’ Cassie approached, the woman had just arrived and immediately took a position next to Xena.
Haven't answered yet. Xena stood up. Rayan just arrived. ‘’Wait a moment Yes Sis.’’ Her bag was given to Cassie, while she immediately ran small, approaching Rayan.
‘’Welcome drink its pack.’’ Little kidding. Hope Rayan welcomes his gift.
‘’I don't like coffee.’’ Xena. Don't like how? At their first meeting, Xena clearly saw Rayan coming with a cup of coffee in her hand. Xena also bought the same coffee that Rayn had brought.
‘’Loh that time right ...’’
‘’Stop following me!’’ Xena fell silent, her steps stopped. He saw Rayan's back that was getting away.
Some employees threw unpleasant comments. Xena doesn't care. He simply did not want those comments to affect him and instead made him badmood.
‘’You okay?’’ Cassie approached. Cassie was amazed by Xena's mentality that was not down at all. Clearly Rayan had rejected it, but there was absolutely no sad look on Xena's face. The woman smiled cheerfully instead, pulling Cassie's hand towards their study.
Like nothing happened, just now. Great right?
‘’I heard something was rejected again.’’ Greetings to Xena, from her co-worker Cindy who a few days ago underestimated her.
‘’That's me, any problem?’’ Without shame, Xena admitted that Rayan again rejected it.
Who is patient yes Xena.’’ Some colleagues cheered.
‘’Ngot a problem. Still plenty of time.’’ The colleagues smiled. This is what they love about Xena. The woman never lost her spirit. If you already like something, Xena will try very hard, to make it happen.
‘’Spirit, mbak supports you.’’
‘’I ate first time yes, would like to be supported equally mbak Rani hehehe.’’ Xena was joking.
‘’No eating. It's already working hours!’’ The baldy just passed by, while the colleagues immediately smiled at each other before doing their respective work.
*****
It had been two weeks, since the first day Rayan met Xena and it had been the last two weeks as well, Xena had continued to terrorize her. I don't know, that woman doesn't understand human language. How many times did Rayan say, not to bother him anymore, but Xena seemed to not understand and always came to disturb him.
In the morning, Xena always waits for him in the lobby, bringing him a cup of his favorite cappuccino. Xena also often makes lunch for him. Rayan never accepted Xena's gift and always refused harshly. But I don't know, the woman never once offended and always came looking and bothering him.
‘’Do you have no pride? How many times have I said that I am not interested and will never like a woman like you!’’
Xena lowered her head for a moment, before returning to look up. ‘’Pak Rayan can tell me, what kind of woman you want and I will try to change as you want.’’
‘’Which is definitely not you!’’
‘’Loh why? Looks like I'm pretty enough to be the wife of Mr. Rayan, later.’’
‘’Can die standing me.’’
‘’Lah so widowed my dong.’’
Rayan groaned in annoyance. Fortunately for the woman, thought Rayan who had raised her bogem, as if she wanted to hit Xena.
Rayan thought no more of Xena. Never once did she fear him. As of now, Rayan was already moaning in annoyance, but Xena instead smiled, like an innocent person.
‘’Go, I do a lot of work,’’ get rid of it on Xena.
‘’This extension?’’ Xena lifted the coffee cup and lunch for Rayan.
‘’Buang!’’
‘’Neither pack is wasting food. Eaten yes.’’
‘’You threw away or I threw away?’’
Xena no longer denied. He just does not want to disturb Rayan who has started to focus on work. Without saying anything, Xena stepped back and closed the door of Rayan's room.
Rayan only glanced while sighing heavily. Just feel relieved, because Xena is no longer in front of him.
*****
‘’You dumped?’’ A man interrupts, when Xena will throw coffee and lunch that was to be given to Rayan.
‘’Can? I just happened to not have lunch.’’ The man smiled widely. Xena then stepped up, taking the man to a small table not far from them.
‘’It looks good.’’ The man watched, as Xena opened the food box for him. ‘’Can I eat now?’’ he asked again, which Xena immediately embraced. He held back as Xena was about to leave.
‘’Can accompany me, I don't really like eating alone.’’ Without answering, Xena sat down in front of the man, watching the man who was eating voraciously. Is the cooking that good? Her thought.
‘’Oh yes, I'm Aldo.’’ Aldo introduced himself.
‘’Xena,’’ reply Xena briefly. ‘’Eating is as delicious as that huh?’’
Aldo quickly shook his head. ‘’Regular aja.’’
‘’But almost out tuh.’’
Aldo chuckled, as suddenly Xena spoke in a taut tone.
‘’Past cooking time, did you not try?’’
‘’T think it feels good enough.’’
‘’Means you don't need any more dong.’’
‘’Ya people's tastes will vary.’’
‘’Certain people are different. But good cuisine will always be good, even for someone who has a standard taste bud. And I think that the man you like has lost his sense of taste. He won't know which food is good and not.’’
Xena nodded, a second later looking at Aldo, with a slight surprise.
‘’No need to be surprised, I'm quite sensitive.’’ Xena just kept quiet, looked at Aldo who was smiling and had returned to continue eating.
‘’See you again yes,’’ said Aldo before leaving Xena. Xena's not huffing. He had no reason to see the man again, he thought and walked away.

‘’Hai bro,’’ Rayan is surprised by Aldo's sudden arrival. Intentionally, Aldo did not tell. The man realized that Rayan was keeping her distance.
‘’Busy really yes, until there is no time for your own friends,’’ Aldo slightly quipped, stepped towards the guest sofa in Rayan's room.
‘’Self?’’ Rayan is just plain ordinary. The man, resumed his work and occasionally glanced at Aldo. ‘’ada what?’’ ask again, when Aldo silently watched her.
‘’You liked There?’’ Rayan stopped, his mind slightly blanked, because Aldo's question was too to the point. His eyes closed for a moment, to calm down. After that, he saw Aldo.
‘’Sana is my best friend and anyways she has become your lover.’’
‘’If she's not my lover?’’
If Sana wasn't Aldo's girlfriend? Of course Rayan would happily tell Sana about her feelings, making the woman hers, but there was no way, she answered like that.
‘’If she does not become your lover, it is possible that she will become someone else's lover.’’ Rayan replied in a nonchalant tone, just pretending, to allay Aldo's suspicions.
‘’Honest to me, you like There right?’’
‘’Ya, I do love it.’’ his speech paused, while Aldo, the man seemed anxious waiting for Rayan's answer, ‘’but, just as a friend. Why, are you suddenly jealous of me?’’
Aldo's a little light. At least he had asked Rayan directly and had made sure that Rayan did not like her lover. He stood up, staring intensely at Rayan.
‘’Terus why have you been so hard to contact lately?’’
‘’Jeez, you've been like my lover only.’’
‘’I'm serious Ray. I think you've been avoiding me, ever since you found out about my relationship with Sana.’’
‘’Who is avoiding you, you don't see.’’ Rayan pointed to the number of documents on her desk.
‘’And stop discussing There, I already have someone I like.’’ What's with his mouth, why lie in the distance anyway? Rayan thought immediately regretted his words, while in front of him, Aldo was already excited, asking about the figure that Rayan liked.
Rayan felt like she had dug her own grave. I don't know, all of a sudden he's thinking of hiring a woman, to pretend to be his lover.
The more restless he was, when Aldo told him to take the woman, on his birthday. Where Aldo's birthday is 2 days away.
