Aydan was astonished by the atmosphere in the Suite Room. He was trying to digest what just happened. Andra who was crying earlier, even her tears were still not dry was stunned to see her because they hit their client full of anger. Erik who was bleeding and bruised his face was looking at him with a half-excited expression. The two men he suspected were Erik's friends, trying to run him as hard as they could. Widia who looked like a kuntilanak and Ivane who looked like a pocong was stunned with an anxious face.
A 'Happy Birthday Diandra' inscription on the wall and the birthday cake made her even more confused.
"What's really going on?" tanyanya still did not understand.
"Mas Aydan!" exclamation Widia. "I'm sorry, we didn't invite Mas Aydan to join forces with Andra. You said Mas Imam, Mas Aydan was meeting. Today is her birthday" Widia said.
"Andra's birthday today?" muttered. He did not remember what date and what day it was. All her busyness made her forget the important day of her own lover. Andra as well.
"Yes, Mas. I also forgot my birthday. It feels strange" said Andra as she glanced at the people who had managed to prank her until she was scared to death to tears.
"So, you weren't meant to be with Erik, were you?" ask Aydan again to be sure. He examined Andra's entire body with anxious feelings. From head to foot.
"Mas, I'm fine. I'm sorry, I'm worrying you" Andra whispered to Aydan, who now had an ungodly face. "Now you have to apologize to Erik. He was almost battered by your beat," he proposed as he glanced at Erik who was still stunned by the familiarity of the two.
Erik himself looked at him with an awkward smile because of the incident, he became a prank victim as well and felt guilty. The two men who had been holding Aydan were now chuckling. The two men were Ibnu and Alfian, his brother Andra.
"I'm sorry, Erik. I completely lost control. I was panicking when Andra was screaming for help" she said.
"It's okay, Dan. I impeached. Maybe I'll do the same, too" he replied.
"And we did not think at all that Mas Aydan would come and Andra here. We think we're still meeting at the office. Tau that we ajakin join aja to ngerjain Andra earlier," said Widia.
"Yes. It's not going to mess up like this" Ivane added.
"Who is he, Dek?" asked Ibn curious who had only listened
"She's a senior architect in my office, sister," Andra replied suddenly nervously. Andra only realized that her family had not known Aydan, her boss who is now her lover.
"Mas Aydan, meet my brother, Brother Ibn and Brother Alfian. They should be in Bandung, but I don't know when to come to Jakarta" said Andra.
Ibn and Alfian smiled at Aydan who was now so clumsy and really embarrassed. He nodded his head at Andra's two siblings.
"Yes that. Because the prank has been discovered so how about we continue the show by blowing candles and cutting cakes," proposed Ibn trying to melt the atmosphere.
"Agoddessa!" answer them compactly.
"Speed, Ndra. I've laper, here," Ivane said without shame. "This pocong dress makes me sultry again." Ivane took off the pocong costume. Widia also did the same thing on her flute costume.
Then the tart cake that has been presented since earlier on the table lit the candle. Everyone gathered and sang the song 'Happy Birthday' cheerfully. Before blowing out the candle, Andra closed her eyes to pray. Then the flame of the candle blows the wind from his mouth and dies. Everyone applauded and cheered.
The cake cut event was done. His first cut he gave to his eldest brother, Ibn. Alfian, Aydan, Erik, Widia, and Ivane. Erik was surprised when Andra fed Aydan the cake from his spoon with a crisp face. There was a bad feeling in his heart.
After eating the tarts, each of them was busy chatting on the sofa while eating another meal. Widia and Ivane chat with Aydan. Alfian and Ibnu were busy chatting with Erik. Andra herself in the bathroom to fix her appearance that was chaotic earlier.
In front of the mirror, he remembered the words of his brother who said that Erik liked him. Now he understood what all the food delivery was given. And, why is his attitude so kind and attentive. At first he thought, Erik was just being nice like a brother to his sister, but it was more than that. Now he doesn't know how to behave.
"Maybe I should pretend I don't know, deh," murmured Andra in front of the bathroom mirror.
"Don't let Mas Aydan know. He could be getting jealous" he said worriedly.
As Andra came out of the bathroom, she nearly collided with Erik who had just come towards her. Apparently he wanted to go into the bedroom next to the bathroom. An awkward atmosphere ensued. The two just smile at each other. Erik immediately went into the bedroom and Andra was about to return to the dining room, but suddenly Erik called out to him.
"Yes, Mum."
Erik soon followed while carrying a box wrapped in maroon-colored gift paper with gold ribbon decoration.
"It's a gift for you from me" he said, handing Andra the box.
"Thank you much. Don't bother like this, Mom."
"I don't feel bothered, really. It's nice to be able to celebrate your birthday. Even this Suite Room I have a special message for you, Andra."
"Wow. I feel so flattered. It's really an amazing birthday party, you know, " Andra said feeling happy.
"We're talking on the balcony, yuk!" bring Erik. Both switched places.
On the balcony again continue the chat while enjoying the beautiful view of Jakarta at night which is like a flickering star in the sky.
"Oh yes, Mas. Please forgive Aydan again. I hope not to interfere with our cooperation on the FO project. It was completely my fault too. I went through a panic and had negative thoughts on you," continued Andra felt guilty. The bruised and torn wounds on Erik's lips were still evident on his handsome face.
"It's okay. I have forgiven and forgiven. Indeed the purpose of this prank scares you, really."
"Whose idea is this?"
"It's Alfian's idea and your friend's wearing that pocong costume." Erik pointed at Alfian and Ivane who were chatting together.
"Hmmm pantesan. They both like to be nosy the most from the past," he said annoyed.
Erik giggled as Andra told him all of the two men's frenzy. He listened so enthusiastically to all Andra's stories while still studying with Widia and Ivane. That familiarity was of course realized by Aydan. He who was chatting with Widia and Ibnu, only listened in passing. His eyes continued to look at Andra who looked happy to talk to the handsome client.
"Great friendship still survives today" said Erik.
"Mas Erik and Ibnu are the same. Still good friends since High School."
"Yes, right. Your brother's a fun and nice guy. He was sincerely friends with me. Mostly because there is a desire," he explained while glancing at Ibn who was engrossed in raving with Aydan.
"Oh yes. I see you and your senior look very close" he continued.
Now Andra who glanced at Aydan who turned out to be glancing at him as well. His face implied a dislike for Erik, but it was hidden away.
"We are familiar because of one alma mater. Same with Widia and Ivane" Andra said.
"Acrab only because of one alma mater and one office? Or is there something else?" erik's investigation is suspicious.
"Eh?!" Andra gasped and somehow became nervous. Especially when both of Erik's eyes looked at him so deeply. Find out his heart.
"So I saw you bribing him. An ordinary co-worker would not do that to another co-worker. Especially your boss. I suspect there is a special relationship between you. Aye right?" cecar Erik's. Andra chuckled to cover up her embarrassment.
"Don't you guys go out?" guess Erik.
Andra was surprised by the man's guess. He just smiled and somehow felt reluctant to admit it. Until the call from Widia saves him. He immediately entered and managed to avoid the question.
