Hugged Me, Mother
chapter 47

"P_morning. Alya, what are you doing?" The strange question was unintentionally uttered by Arka, for some reason she did not know what to say, suddenly her brain was running slow when she saw Alya walking towards her and with her sweet smile that adorned the lips of the twenty-three year old girl.

Alya frowned in confusion at the question Arka had asked her.

"I'm sorry, what do you mean?" said Alya while looking at Arka with a questionable look.

"No, I don't mean anything. What did I ask?"

"Huh," Alya gawking.

"Ah Alya, let's go in!" Arka walked into his office.

"Sir, but Mr ...."

"What else is hemm?" said Arka who suddenly stopped her steps and then stood straight before Alya.

Because Arka who suddenly stopped, finally Alya who was walking fast in order to chase Arka was accidentally hit the boss!

Arka who suddenly stopped his steps made Alya did not have time to brake his steps and finally Alya hit Arka until the sweet girl almost fell.

Fortunately Arka who was always alert, quickly hugged Alya and Alya was not so fallen to the floor.

Some employees who had arrived at the office quickly recorded them and some were live.

They both looked at me for a few seconds.

Alya immediately broke free from Arka's embrace because it felt bad that many saw and noticed them!

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it" Arka said.

"It's okay sir, I should be the one apologizing for bumping into you. Oh yes, thank you for helping me so I don't fall."

"It's okay. I should've helped you."

**********

Somewhere else.

Many people who saw the recording of Arka who was hugging Alya. They look very romantic and make singles envious to see it.

"Look at this couple" said a mahadevi to his friend while showing his cell phone.

Some of the students also saw the video that has been seen by thousands of people.

"Truly mesra them. So I want to."

"Geez they make me jealous."

"Beautiful and handsome. They're a matching couple."

Such are the words spoken by some of the students who saw the live broadcast conducted by one of the Arka employees.

Within minutes, the video was viewed by thousands of people and shared hundreds of times.

In this modern era, it is not difficult to spread something that they think people need to know and interesting to watch.

*********

In Broto's office.

Julian immediately saw a video shared by one of the accounts he had befriended on Facebook.

"Alya," Julian murmured.

"This video has been watched by thousands of people. Very friendly brand," said Julian again.

Julian instantly saw a notification from Instagram floating on his phone screen.

He went to Instagram by pressing the notification.

And he was so shocked when he saw the video went viral everywhere.

"Jeez, this video is spreading so fast. Farhan doesn't know yet?"

Julian immediately sent Farhan the video to tell him about what Alya and the man in the video were doing.

The message is still gray tick, which means Farhan has not read the message even though whatsapp is active.

*******

"Mom, it looks like Alya will catch up with me and Farhan to the wedding or maybe we get married on the same day" Najwa said as he continued to watch the widely-spread video.

"Why can you say that?"

"Look at Mom." Najwa showed me the video on his phone!

"They look so friendly, don't they?"

"This is Arka, Alya's boss," Chandra said.

"Yes that's Arka, Alya's boss. One week without seeing each other, apparently they've missed each other."

"Who shared this video? Alya must be embarrassed by the spread of this video."

"A lot of people have shared this video."

"Your sister must be saddened by shame."

Najwa smiles happily as Chandra has started to notice and worry Alya.

**********

"Gosh, who's spreading this video?" said Arka who just saw a video of herself hugging Alya.

Arka continued to look at the video until it was finished and unknowingly a smile was engraved on her lips. There is a great sense of happiness when he sees himself hugging Alya in the video.

Although the incident was unintentional, inexplicably she felt happy.

Arka secretly copied the video and saved it so that she could see it again anytime and anywhere.

In Alya's room.

Alya who knows nothing is still busy doing all her work. One week does not go to work, making his work pile up and make himself so busy when entering work today.

**********

"Byeah!"

Farhan is jealous to see the video Julian sent her.

He threw his phone over the grass that was lying around him!

"Why Alya, why don't you marry me for the reason of the illness you're suffering from but why are you making out with her and you purposely spread this video so that I feel jealous and in pain. Why Alya, why are you this big on me?"

Farhan who was somewhere away from the crowd of the city immediately burned with jealous fire.

Farhan who deliberately came to the place to win himself and his mind, actually got a heavier burden after seeing the video.

"I'm so hard to forget about you and all your memories with you but why is it so easy for you to move to another heart and deliberately spread your affection with other men on social media."

Farhan returns to shed her tears just because of her love for Alya. Somehow it felt so hard for him to forget an Alya. The girl he loved so much.

Under the big tree, Farhan felt so devastated and as if he had no more life.

The girl he loved so much and wanted so much to fight for by him turned out to already have another man as his successor.

*********

"Mom if you're cured, I need to talk to Arka's parents about Alya and Arka's relationship."

"Dear, I will talk to Mr. Danuarta and ask her to marry Alya immediately" Chandra said in a voice that still sounded weak.

Najwa laughed happily while continuing to look at the video. Knowing her sister had a close friend made Najwa happy.

"How is this, I know Alya loves Farhan very much. He must have deliberately made Arka as an impingement. I'm sorry, Alya, I want to give Farhan back to you but I don't know how. Your brother who knows nothing is already happy with his marriage to Farhan" Chandra said in his heart.

Clear white unaccompanied granules slid from the corner of his eye. There was regret so deep in his heart that he could not hold back his tears.

"Mom, why are you crying?"

"Mothers are happy because Mother's children already have their own partners" Chandra told a lie.
