Apologize

After the kidnapping affair made up by Arka, now the man invites Rita to make peace. So when he came home from work, Arka came to Rita's place of work.

"Rita is there?"

Arka asked Kina who happened to be standing in front of the shop.

"Eh, Arka? Why is there, sir. But she doesn't want to be met with you because…"

"Tell me now if I want to take her to her parents' house. I'm sure he won't refuse."

Arka knew it was Rita's dream since she was in Jakarta. For almost two years, Rita could not go home because of financial constraints.

Even with a debt of fifty million the other day, Rita didn't go to the village to give it to her parents. Everything is only by bank transfer.

"Rita, there is Arka outside. I'm looking for you and want to invite-"

"Shut up!"

Rita immediately hit the table with emotion. Her job of counting cash in the shop was interrupted. Even it feels like to continue the task becomes less enthusiastic.

"Don't be such a short wick, Rita. Listen to me first, Arka intends to take you to the village, to your house. Don't you want to meet your mother?"

Rita lifted her head, which had been looking down for a while, trying to contain her anger. Her eyes turned to Kina to ask for an explanation of the truth. Don't let her friend just talk carelessly with the aim of being able to make her meet Arka.

Honestly, Rita still doesn't accept Arka's behavior which makes her heart panic. Arka's planned kidnapping with the sole purpose of seeing the extent of Rita's panic, finally shows itself.

"You panic too if anything happens to me. Is that the meaning of love you show?"

That's what Arka asked Rita last night. Rita still clearly remembered the man's tone and expression in Rita's memory. Instead of Rita answering, she was completely ignorant of Arka.

"Ah!"

Rita growled with emotion and rose from her seat. "You're not lying, are you, Kina? If you lied, what should I do to you?"

Kina laughed heartily and raised two fingers to greet her best friend.

"Alright, calm down. Anyway, I guarantee that Arka said that to me," Kina answered firmly.

But for a split second, Kina's expression was a little pale. 'But if Pak Arka lied to me earlier, what then? Seriously! I'm the one who's in danger of dealing with the lioness's shop head!'

Kina mind shuddered in fear.

While outside.

Rita had shown herself and was standing right in front of Arka's car. There, Arka had been sitting in the cabin of his car. With one leg up above like posing in an expensive car.

Rita sighed in exasperation. Sometimes Rita is momentarily fascinated by Arka.

How not, Arka's appearance is enough to catch his attention. Black jeans combined with a simple black shirt, it looks simple.

But with Arka's appearance like that, it actually gave off his handsome aura. Moreover, his athletic body is increasingly visible.

Rita doesn't know where Arka's eyes are now. The guy wearing sunglasses that perched on his nose while moving.

"Arka! No need to be pretentious in front of me. Now tell me what is your purpose in coming here?"

"Hmm? Are you talking to me? Sorry, Rita. I thought I was at the beach and felt myself sunbathing in a luxury car-"

'Enough! Stop playing with my feelings, Arka. Are you not satisfied Arka saw me angry last night? Is it necessary that from this moment on I regard you as a sworn enemy?"

Arka gasped as she jumped from her lie on top of the car cabin. The man took off his glasses and threw them in the wrong direction. Then after holding Rita's hands.

"Don't be, beautiful. I'm here to take you to your parents' house. Think of this as my apology for playing with your feelings."

Rita was silent in her place. Come to think of it, what Arka said right now wasn't a lie. But honestly, hearing Arka's figurative language made Rita hiss in disapproval.

"Toying with feelings how? I have no feelings for you, Mr. Arka! Please, if you talk about it, use your brain a little! Later, when people hear it, it will give the impression that we are dating and Pak Arka has hurt my heart by cheating! Ugh, God forbid it happened!"

Arka held back a laugh. He noticed the look on Rita's face that had been chattering non-stop. To him, it was so adorable.

"Come on, let's go to your village. It's a long journey there, isn't it? About how many hours?" asked Arka seriously.

"Eight hours. It's just like working in an office that takes eight hours," Rita said lightly.

"Eh, but Mr. Arka, if you want to take me out, it's better not now. I'm still working."

"So tomorrow?"

"Hm, I work too," answered Rita weakly. He just realized that it seemed he had no hope of ever making it back to his hometown.

Moreover, the owner of the shop where he works does not want to allow Rita to leave.

Rita's taken too many days off this month. Because Rita had worked in Arka's office.

"Don't worry, I already asked your boss for permission. Everything is safe and leave it to a responsible man like me," replied Arka with a look of pride on his face.

Rita frowned in confusion.

"It means? How can Arka ask for my permission to Gea? Couldn't it be..."

As Rita recalled, the other day Ibu Gea would not obey anyone's wishes. Her character is very hard to compromise. But it's a different story if Gea is dealing with the person she likes.

"This!"

Arka gave his phone to Rita. There was a short message that was exchanged between Arka and Gea.

Rita also read carefully the short message. At first it was normal, but as time went on, Arka's behavior became more and more obvious.

All crappy calls were written down in short messages until Rita's boss finally melted into giving permission.

[Yes, Handsome. You can invite my employee to his village. But only one day and no more. After you invite Rita to her village, it's my turn to take you for a walk. Would you like it, Honey?]

Rita couldn't take it anymore. The woman quickly handed Arka's flat object.

"You rag king! You promised to invite the boss, remember you have to do it!"

Rita hissed sarcastically, but originally wanted to burst out laughing. Her boss was a lover of handsome men. Not to mention that her boss was too confident with his appearance which she said was like the most beautiful woman.

Even though … never mind, Rita can't describe how a flirtatious widow is when dealing with men.

"Come on!"

Arka grabbed Rita's hand quickly, bringing her into the car and Rita also agreed to be brought in there with Arka.
