The Hottest Man

The office was deserted when Dania finished her job. The shorthand of the clock points to nine in the evening. Naturally, if the occupants of the office have left. Only himself remains.

Dania stretched her stiff muscles, massaged her sore shoulders. She took a deep breath. Finally, she got through the day. Even though she might get scolded by her parents. It's not without reason she's working overtime tonight. Her mother had arranged a date with a man. According to the mother's version, the man who will be crowned a potential future husband. But of course not for Dania.

The 27-year-old woman turned off the light and went out of the office. Feeling tired that clinging to make her want to get to the apartment. The night streets are quite quiet, she can drive his car at high speed. The thought of soaking in warm water and sleeping on its fluffy mattress is delightful.

Her cell phone rang just as she was parking the car in the basement of the apartment. She put the flat object to her ear and squeezed it with his shoulder. While her hand opened the car door, and the other one reached for her briefcase.

"Yes, Cla?" Dania got out and closed her car door.

"Don't you want to come here?" asked Clara, her best friend there.

"Dan! Come on over here! The guys here are cute." It was Viona's voice. Dania could hear the sound of the music pounding. The two friends are certainly at a nightclub.

"Sorry, I can't join tonight. Tired, want to get a dream."

"It's tiring that you make yourself. Who told you to do overtime? " Clara is right. There is no better reason to reject your mother's wishes than overtime. So, Dania was forced to do it.

"You can say over time but you're having fun, right?" Clara continued again.

"I'm not used to lying to my mother. Not like you."

There Clara laughed. What Dania said was right. Dania entered the elevator to her unit.

"So, who did you meet?" asked Dania.

"Handsome guy, Dan. Ready to entertain us." Again Vio shouted.

"If it's not a foreigner, I don't want to," joked Dania. Vio is a woman hunter.

"Oh, so you like imports? You're smart, the import is big." Vio chuckled back. It's only nine o'clock, but the woman is already drunk.

"Take care of Vio, Cla. She when drunk is dangerous."

The elevator door opened, Dania stepped out. However, just as she was about to walk down the unit's hallway, her gaze caught on to something surprising.

"Shit," she swore, blinking.

A couple is making out affectionately on the wall of the hallway leading to the unit. It can be seen that the man is very dominant.

How can they make out on the outside like that? The man then pushed the woman's body into the unit. For several minutes Dania held her breath, finally, she could breathe a sigh of relief after the pair was completely out of sight. Maybe they continue the rest of the game inside.

A faint sound could be heard from the cellphone she was holding, Clara shouted her name. Dania forgot that she was talking to Clara. She then rushed to his unit.

"Sorry, Cla. There is something that surprised me earlier," she said, stepping back.

"Did you just see a ghost?"

"No, but more than a ghost. How can I see a couple who is–"

"Whip?"

Dania nodded, she pressed the combination number on the unit door. At the other end, Clara's laughter could be heard.

"Then, do you want it too?" asked Clara.

"Yes, no." Dania pushed open the door and entered the unit.

"You don't want to feel that, Dan. Just see, what's good? Why didn't you just join them?"

"Damn."

Clara chuckled again. She knows that Dania is still clean. That is, Dania is not the type of woman who easily gives a kiss to a man.

"I'm done. I hang up the phone. Tired, want to take a shower to continue sleeping. You guys just have fun."

Dania just threw her cellphone on the bed. Then she immediately headed for the bathroom. Take a warm bath with soothing aromatherapy.

Tomorrow she will have to prepare with a barrage of scolding from his mother, for not coming on that date on purpose. For God's sake, Dania doesn't like it when her mother keeps fixing her up with anyone. This is not the time. Without a match, Dania believes she can find her soulmate. Her age is not worrying. Oh, my God.

Mama said this man is different from the others. Still said mama, the man she chose this time was handsome and rich. As ever, the handsome mama's version is far from Dania's imagination. So, this time let Dania disobey.

Her body felt refreshed after soaking earlier. However, instead of being sleepy, she was starving. So, she decided to go downstairs after changing into a more casual outfit.

Dania entered the elevator about to descend into the lobby. There is a restaurant that is open 24 hours. The stomach must be filled if she wants to sleep well.

The elevator doors nearly closed as someone shouted.

"Hold on!"

Dania's hand automatically pressed the button beside the door. Hold back.

"Thank you," said a man who then slipped in.

Dania was stunned on the spot. Her hand suddenly pressed the cardigan she was wearing. For the first time, she regretted helping someone get into the elevator with her. That person was the man she saw making out with a woman in the corridor of the unit. Shit.

Dania stepped back, slightly away from the man's position. The tall, athletic body of the man terrified her a little. The man's face was handsome, but wasn't it a face like that that often deceived?

Dania also had a handsome boyfriend. However, she was forced to leave because her boyfriend often demands excessive things from her. And this man before her? From the way he made love to his partner, Dania could confirm what kind of man he was.

"Get off on what floor?" The man voiced.

"Huh?" Like a fool, Dania gasped instead.

The man turned his head. And as if bewitched by the charm of that man, Dania gawked on the spot.

"Antares," she muttered incoherently.

"Pardon?" The man asked in surprise.

In the corridor earlier, Dania could not see the man's face. Now, this is only clear. There are thin sideburns on the man's jaw area. The two buttons on his shirt were open. From there, Dania could see that there were fine hairs that somehow looked– ahem–sexy to her.

"Ah, I mean, I got off at the lobby." Damn, why must Dania be this nervous?

The man smiled, then nodded. "Then we have different goals, I'm the basement."

I swear, for whatever! His smile teases faith. Dania had to clear her throat and looked away so as not to be affected by the charm that the man gave off.

This man-made her guesswork, what kind of man will she be married to? Maybe as handsome as this guy? Holishit! What was Dania thinking?

Dania went down first. She smiled awkwardly when the stranger politely ushered her out. Her forehead creased faintly. Was that man trying to charm her? Dania doesn't care. There was something more important than that, filling her stomach, which was suddenly getting hungrier.
