Waiting for Arkan

Secretary Ham was still in a state of confusion because he saw Arkan currently at his house. What does a boss do in a subordinate's house? Especially now that it's not working hours anymore for them to meet and they should be in their respective places.

In fact, today Secretary Ham wanted to go to visit Raya to give food that was deliberately bought with the excuse that his boss asked for it. However, what he saw now was Arkan himself in his house. How was he supposed to get Arkan to leave immediately?

"Is there any unfinished work, Sir?"

Arkan took a deep breath, furrowed his forehead while closing his eyes. He would have almost whined like a child if he didn't remember that now he wasn't the only one there. The attitude of the boss must be maintained in front of subordinates.

"You should accompany me to calm down."

"Are you not feeling well, Sir?" asked Secretary Ham, implying the meaning of worry. "We're going to the hospital then."

"I'm not really well... but what I'm feeling right now isn't something that can be treated by seeing a doctor."

Arkan feels very frustrated if he has to explain in detail that the reason he wants to whine is because of desire that doesn't get channeled, even though they are already fellow men.

"It will only be a moment until the image of the evil person dissipates. I just need you to accompany me to distract." Arkan rose from his seat. "We're leaving now." He walked away without waiting for approval.

Secretary Ham really wanted to refuse the order, but he certainly couldn't because it was rare for Arkan to ask for help outside of work. Surely it is also very important to make his boss visit this rental house. He had to solve the problem as soon as possible before going to visit Raya.

Lunar had long been hugging and lapping her bolsters. She pursed her lips, very annoyed with the situation she was in right now. On the other hand, she is also worried whether Arkan will pick her up or not?

The sound of knocking on the door made her lie down immediately as if she was asleep. She squinted and hoped that conversation didn't get between her and her family. Did not want the word 'marriage' to be discussed because she was reluctant to think about such complicated matters.

The pretense was known by her mother. Lunar's buttocks were hit hard, causing her to quickly get up from her bed. The look on the face of the daughter who married secretly winced in pain while holding the aching buttocks.

"Ah, mother! It hurts so much!"

"What about Arkan? Will he pick you up?"

"I don't know, because I can't reach him. Mother took me away in such a hurry that she wouldn't let me take my cell phone." Lunar quipped softly.

The mother could only sigh in annoyance. "You have to marry Nico if Arkan doesn't pick you up. Now, meet your father to talk about the mess you mentioned," she ordered then left from the room.

Was her mother serious about it? Lunar is still married to Arkan, so how can she marry another man? How badly he wanted to argue, but she had better not because now the situation was complicated. She couldn't take one wrong step because otherwise she really would be married off to a philanderer like Nico.

Lunar shook off all anxiety, not lingering to let herself get up and out of the room anyway. She did have to meet with her father to talk about the mess sye made. Even though herself was very afraid to imagine how her father's expression would be.

Her father was known as a firm and hard figure. She had never dared to go against his father's wishes. However, once she opposed her marriage to Nico. She had no regrets, just wished that her father wasn't mad at her anymore.

The three of them gathered in the living room to discuss this important matter. No one knew how tense Lunar was right now. She hasn't started the conversation yet, her sweat is already flowing profusely, especially later when her father speaks.

"Sorry about my marriage, Father," Lunar said, filled with regret.

The father was unmoved looking at his daughter who slightly lowered his head. "Has this man impregnated you?"

Lunar wasn't the only one who was surprised, so was the mother. Never imagined that the question would be in their conversation. Compared to that, how would Lunar respond? The situation now reminded her of the first conversation she had with Arkan's father.

Lunar has indeed had intercourse with Arkan, but there are no signs of pregnancy yet. They'd only done it once and would have done it twice if her mother hadn't thought about taking her away. And again, pregnancy is not the reason why marriage can happen.

"No, Father. Arkan did not impregnate me."

For some reason, Lunar is showing how her stomach still looks flat. In fact, she also pounded her a little to convince her parents that she was not pregnant.

"How did you come to have a relationship with him?"

The question came suddenly and caught Lunar completely unprepared. Now what kind of story will be presented? Her brain thought hard to arrange events after events that must have been made by her own imagination.

"Father asked you."

The mother's poking made Lunar realize that he had been daydreaming for too long. He looked straight at his father who was still waiting for an answer, completely unable to think how their meeting happened.

"I ...."

Sora's arrival made all eyes diverted. The mother who first greeted before finally the four of them sat there. Lunar could see how her sister came with a big smile.

"You haven't answered my question," said the father again.

Once again Lunar was awakened and now by his father. "I ...."

Lunar has to give up her principle of not lying to her parents today. "At that time, I applied for a job at Royal Grey. Accidentally met Arkan. From there we communicated with each other and eventually got married."

The end. The perfect meeting, Lunar thought.

If their parents could be satisfied with that answer, but not for Sora who judged that the story he heard just now seemed made up.

How can an Arkan Gray have time to approach an ordinary girl who is a job applicant? What nonsense. Besides, why at that time did Lunar not just choose Arkan to marry instead of Nico, who Lunar didn't like at all. They do not have to bother preparing a wedding party.

"So, you were accepted at that big company?" asked the mother.

"No." This time Lunar didn't want to lie.

"If Arkan really likes you, why not accept you as an employee at his company?" asked Sora.

This is what Lunar doesn't want to happen. Her marriage and meeting with Arkan are fake and how will she weave another fake? And again, can't give up when dealing with Sora. Her sister was not like what she thought so far.

"That... we just know each other and Arkan is a shy guy. He was very sorry when he heard the news of my marriage. After knowing that I didn't want to marry Nico, he immediately took the initiative to marry me."

"And you want to? Without saying anything to us? You ungrateful child!" said the father angrily.

"Okay, Farher. it all happened. We can't do anything." The mother calmed down.

"No one believed me then that Nico was having an affair. I was so pathetic and didn't know what to do."

"Not only secretly married, but you also take advantage of your husband?!" The father shouted again.

"N—no, Father! I really like him!"

Sora clenched her fists. She was sure that her younger sister was lying, doubted that. If it's true that Lunar and Arkan married because they liked each other, then what about her? now Lunar looked superior to her.
