20 Chapter 19

"Laras are you ready?" asked Reza who had just come out of his room.

"Already." The answer, this time Laras used a long sleeved shirt and of course a thick jacket to protect her body from the cold, Reza had warned him beforehand.

"We're leaving." Take Reza.

"Wait a minute, I need to ask permission."

Reza blinked in surprise.

"Asking for permission? To whom? Mommy? Don't worry anymore, I can tell mommy later. You don't have to ask permission, after all, I invited you."

Laras shook her head.

"No, but to Rio."

"What's necessary?"

"Yes. Just a moment."

Reza took a deep breath, should Laras tell his hyung? Isn't that unnecessary, but in the end Reza nodded, after all Rio had more authority over Laras.

Rio doesn't know why his heart feels a little happy right now, he takes off the bag containing the lunch on his desk. His stomach was already feeling hungry, before he had a meeting it was better for him to eat his lunch that had been prepared. Rio slowly and carefully opened one by one the provisions he was carrying, his smile grew even more when the last lunch he opened, it turned out that there was his favorite fruit in it.

"Watermelon? I didn't know Laras knew? How did she know?"

Without thinking, he ate his food. It turned out that the food that Laras made was delicious too, or indeed he just enjoyed the taste. Instantly feel.

Tokk

Suddenly the sound of the door to his room was heard because someone was knocking from outside. And it turned out to be his personal secretary, Rizal. He walked with his usual face. So handsome.

"Rio, are you still eating? Gosh your meeting will start soon. Wait. Since when did you bring lunch? I know you prefer to eat out." Rizal stopped his speech because he saw the boss eating food with neatly lined lunch boxes.

"I'm hungry, can't they wait? I'm the boss here in case you forgot."

"Yes yes, it's up to you. Oh yes, may I taste your food Rio? Did your sweet maid prepare it?"

NOT

Rizal just wanted to take a side dish from Rio's lunch box but Rio quickly brushed it off. He doesn't want to share, after all, his stomach still feels hungry and needs to be filled with lots of food.

"Do not touch."

"Gosh Rio, why are you so stingy!"

"It's up to me to share or not! This is mine. You'd better eat out."

"Why? That's a lot anyway. Are you going to spend it? I don't think you're going to run out."

"No, I'll eat later after the meeting ."

Rizal rolled his eyes lazily, how good was the lunch he ate so he didn't want to share it with himself. He just wanted to taste not eat it all.

Rio, who was still chewing, suddenly removed the chopsticks in his hand when a call came into his cell phone, his forehead wrinkled when he saw the caller's name listed there, but it did not fail to make a smile rise again at the corner of his lips.

What would make Laras dare to call him first?

Rio slides the green button there.

" Hello ." said Laras on the other side.

"Yes hello, who is this?" Rio teased, he wanted to know what Laras's reaction would be.

"Rio? It's me." Laras's answer made Rio smile again, he already knew Laras was calling him.

"Yeah, I know. I'm not as stupid as you. What's wrong?"

"That, Reza asked to be accompanied to go somewhere." Reza? Why did Reza ask Laras to go outside?

"Together?"

"Yes, both."

Rio took a deep breath, he looked at the half-eaten lunch he had eaten. His mood instantly disappeared when he heard Laras was going out with Reza, just the two of them. Again. But does he care? Only a few. Possible.

"Yes, that's fine, but if there's something strange, call me right away."

"Something strange? What do you mean?" actually Rio did not expect anything strange, but he felt strange with Reza's attitude. Didn't he hate Laras at first? Then why has his brother changed now? Even dared to fight him. This is way too far from the plan.

"Alright, remember to call me if something happens!" said Rio a little shouting.

"Y-yes Rio." Rio gasped when he heard Laras's stuttered answer. Rio was not feeling well.

"Yes, now go, I will soon have a meeting ."

"Ah yes. Thank you."

"yes, you're welcome".

The call was cut off, Rio threw his cell phone on the table. His mood is completely broken. Can he have a meeting in this kind of mood? But he had to do it.

"You're still here Rizal? Why don't you just prepare my meeting materials . Why stay there!"

"Hey Rio, what's wrong with you? You kicked me out? Can't you see what I'm holding? And don't forget, I'm here to call you to the meeting room . " Rizal held up the folder he was holding to show Rio.

"Yes yes, now go, I will follow you. You better get out!"

Rizal's brow furrowed so hard that his brows almost knit together.

"Don't tell me the call just now from Mina, do you have a problem with her? If you have a problem with your boyfriend, don't take it out on me."

Rizal's question made Rio even more angry, as a result now Rizal became the target of his anger. Without a word, Rio now began to stare at Rizal with a sharp and piercing gaze. It wasn't a curse or anything, it just made Rizal shudder.

"Okay fine, I'm going out, no need to put on that expression. A few minutes ago you looked so happy, now you look so gloomy. Why is your mood changing so quickly." Not wanting to get angry again from Rio, after saying the last sentence, Rizal finally walked out of the room, Rio if it was like that didn't want to be bothered at all.

Rio growled in annoyance, Rizal really pissed him off. His words suddenly reminded him of Dinda again, enough that he had thought about Laras's problem. Just now the mood was good, now it's broken instantly.

"Dinda, I'm sorry. I seem to have been caught off guard for a while, hurry home."
