Both of Zahra's eyes are perfectly rounded, “a—what does Kak Ardi mean?” tanyanya nervous.
Ardi got up from his seat, he then walked up to Zahra and pulled one of the chairs beside the girl. Ardi sat his body in that chair, with both arms folded on his chest, he looked into the girl's eyes, “you know what I mean,” he said.
“Em...but am I not wrong?”
Ardi propped up his chin with his right hand leaning against the table, “you're sure you're not wrong?” ask with sharp eyes.
Zahra gulped, she looked very nervous, “a—aku.I'll just say what Brother Micel said,” he said.
“Why didn't you confirm it was the same as me?”
“Not that I told you at Kenzo's office, but Ardi was silent. With the silence of the brother I mean if Brother Ardi does not reject him at all.”
Ardi snapped Zahra's forehead, “I kept quiet because I didn't want to discuss things that I didn't think were important,” he said.
“It's like it's not important for sister!” zahra was surprised.
Ardi nodded, “why, are you jealous?” ask her in a seductive tone.
“Hah...jealous! why can Ardi say that?” zahra asked as she scrunched her forehead.
“Ya..who knows you are jealous, who knows you are in love with me,” he said casually.
“Who is also jealous,” said Zahra while pursing her lips. The girl turned her face away from the man's gaze.
Ardi brought his face closer to Zahra's. Both Zahra's eyes are perfectly rounded as Ardi peeps his cheeks, “Kak!” pekik surprised. The girl touched her cheek that Ardi had just kissed, she didn't
thought Ardi would kiss her cheek.
“What? I said, don't frown anymore, I can't help but frown if you frown,” he said without the slightest guilt.
“Indeed why if I pout?” asked Zahra annoyed.
“Your face is more cute if you are pouting, adorable. What else are your manyun lips, I feel like wanting to kiss those tiny lips,” god with a smile on his face.
“Review yes if Brother Ardi dared to do that, I will be angry!” threaten Zahra with sharp eyes.
Ardi laughed, he thought the threat of the girl was like a joke. This is the first time for Ardi to get acaman from such a young girl, “I'm not afraid, let me see, I want to know what your face is if
being angry,” godanya.
Ardi rubbed the top of Zahra's head, “iya-iya, I also will not do that now,” he said.
“Kok only now?” ask Zahra curiously.
“Because I didn't promise I'll be able to hold it until when.” Ardi then took food for himself, “have finished your meal, or do you really want me to kiss you?” tanyakanya.
“Idih..who also wants to kiss Ardi. Kiss I will give to my girlfriend yes,” he said while turning his face away.
“Kan your girlfriend I, did you forget?” goda.
“The sister is just my pretend boyfriend yes, so don't ever mess around,” threatened Zahra. Ardi just chuckled at the girl's words.

Ardi folded his arms around his chest, he looked at the face of the girl who was now sitting in front of him, “what do you mean say all that?” tanyakanya.
Micel looks confused, “what do you mean? Indeed what I say?” tanyanya's confused.
“Don't you tell Zahra that I'm your future husband?”
Goddamnit! How dare he complain to Ardi! Micel clenched both his hands. “aku..aku..that's because I want him to stay away from you.”.
“Why? What right do you forbid Zahra to be close to me?” Ardi tried to hold back his anger.
“Because I love you. You chose that little girl over me your best friend, you evil Ardi, you evil!” micel cried with tears.
Ardi scooped his face violently, he was wrong to have let Micel down all this time. He thought that the girl would understand for her refusal back then.
“What is my lack in your eyes? What are the advantages of Zahra from me?” micel asked as he held back his sobs so as not to further break.
“You are good, best friend, you always help me, but it's about feeling. I cannot force my heart to love you, I cannot.”
“Why? What's so great about Zahra? What!” Micel seemed to feel his emotions getting overflowing.
“Because for me Zahra is everything, she managed to pull my long-closed heart. Zahra's smile and eyes managed to heal the wounds in my heart, I also don't know why I fell in love with the girl. Actually I'm ashamed to say this, what else with my age far above him, with my status as a widower, I'm actually afraid to love him. But I'm determined, I don't care what people want to say, I'm going to keep going after him. I don't want to repeat the same mistake,” said Ardi with a determination that made Micel snort annoyed at Ardi's words.
I will not give up on getting you. With you saying all that, I'm more convinced that Zahra doesn't know about your feelings. Micel seems to have found a new way to get Zahra away from Ardi.
