Wulan looked at Niko with a glaring look. He did not expect his girlfriend would be that determined. The expression on his face was so calm, that Wulan shook her head even more.
Normally Niko was right, Wulan did not have to worry about Ulan being in the same restaurant. For Niko, the situation is better if Ulan knows that they are in a relationship.
Unlike Niko, Wulan's appetite is gone since she found out her stepbrother was in the same restaurant. He is not ready if Ulan knows that he is in a relationship with his sister's target man.
"Do you want to eat or do I take a bribe?" ask Niko to Wulan.
Since then Wulan just daydreamed, without caring about the food.
Seeing Niko about to touch her food, Wulan immediately rushed over and fed her own food.
"Don't let me."
"So, dong. Besides you don't have to think about it, he already knows that we're eating together."
"He'll definitely ask. He's gonna ask us about our togetherness now."
"Isn't it better if he knows we're in a relationship?"
Wulan just stared at Niko. Free to argue, Niko remains stubbornly eager to acknowledge their relationship.
Without Niko and Wulan noticing, in the corner of the restaurant Ulan was staring at them behind the barrier wall. The hollow model of the wooden wall made Ulan freely look at Niko and Wulan so clearly.
"Ime," called Ulan to his friend, "look, do you think they have a relationship or not?"
The woman beside Ulan turned her head. "That's Niko Lais. Hmmm, judging from your brother's smile it doesn't seem like. Is she your sister's boyfriend?"
Ulan's expression grew even more shocked. "You know him?"
"Yep, he's head of marketing at BK Group. He's also the owner of the biggest property company in town."
"You know where it's coming from?"
"My partner works for BK Group. During the day of the event, he invited Niko to the event. He's a handsome, very rich man, Ulan."
Ulan daydreams. He felt like he missed the news about Niko. As far as she is concerned, Wulan met Niko last night. If today they are seen together, it is likely that his brother has known Niko for a long time.
So is Ime. For a long time they have been colleagues, why now his friend is telling about Niko.
"Hey, what are you thinking?"
Ime's voice surprised Ulan. "I want to ask you one thing."
"What about?"
"Are there guys who like us, but choose to stay away from us instead of expressing their feelings to us?"
"There was. Such men are usually afraid of rejection. They approached the person closest to the woman to find out information about the woman she liked."
"Oh, so."
Ulan's answer and expression made Ime curious. "What exactly?"
"The man who was with my brother. According to my papa, he likes me, but look . he looks very close to my brother. If he likes me, why doesn't he take me to sit with them?"
"Maybe he's looking for information about you through your brother. He deliberately didn't take you to sit with them, because he didn't want you to know the topic he was going to discuss with your brother."
"About what topic are they discussing, my brother looks moody?"
"Neither, there may be words that offend your brother."
Ulan kept staring at them. "Sir Wulan once told me he was a play boy. Is it possible that she's flirting with my sister?"
"That's the problem, Ime. If Niko really likes me, why doesn't she ever call me?"
"You mean, he never called you?"
"How about the phone, the contact's not on me."
"Why can't he say your dad likes you?"
"That's what confused me. Looking at the interactions of Mr. Wulan and Niko right now, I'm sure I'm not the woman Niko likes."
Ime is getting confused. "I don't understand what you're talking about. You said your dad said he loved you, now why do you say you're not the woman he likes?"
Ulan sniffing. "Tempo my papa day said he'd betroth me to his friend's son. According to my papa's explanation, Niko's father met my father and wanted to marry Niko to me. The reason Niko wanted to marry me was because she liked me. The reason he likes me, is because I helped him after the accident and took him to the hospital. Surprisingly, I never helped her and took her to the hospital. I even saw her for the first time after my dad told me about the match. Do you think my dad's wrong?"
"When viewed from their interactions and my explanations, it could be that your father is wrong. Let's be clear, ask your sister."
"You're right, I need to talk to Mr. Wulan. I think my papa was wrong. How could Niko like me, whereas I've never met her before."
"If it were true, would you not mind a man as handsome as Niko would fall into the hands of your brother?"
Ulan did not answer. He looked at Niko and Wulan with a sad look.
Looking at the expression of his friend Ime added, "If I were you, I wouldn't waste that chance, Ulan. When can you marry a handsome and rich man like Niko?"
Ulan was silent and looked at Ime.
"If I were you, I would urge your father to match me to Niko. Who wouldn't want to marry a guy like Niko? You ... You're one of the lucky women to know Niko. If it's true that your sister isn't in Niko's relationship, I suggest you speed up your marriage to Niko."
Ulan. He did not expect Ime to give such advice.
He also fell in love with Niko. If it was true that her brother had a relationship with that man, Wulan would have acknowledged that since the dinner was over. In fact, Wulan said nothing about the arrival of Niko, it means he had the opportunity to get and captivate Niko.
***
The day was five in the afternoon. The office activities Wulan was doing were done. Instead of rushing to go home, Wulan instead sat quietly while daydreaming in her chair. This incident took a load on his mind.
"Hey, you don't want to go home?" ask Fanny. He sat in front of Wulan. He was surprised to see Wulan's expression that looked sad, "Since I've noticed you keep daydreaming. What's the problem?"
Wulan looked at. "It was noon that Niko and I met Ulan. We ate at the same restaurant."
Previously Wulan had told Fanny about the misunderstanding that occurred.
"Then, what did Ulan say?"
"I haven't met him yet. At lunch I didn't see it. Niko told me that Ulan ate at the restaurant and she told him that Ulan knew we had lunch together."
"Did Ulan call you?"
Wulan.
"Then, what are you worried about? As long as he doesn't know your relationship, he'll definitely think it's normal."
"The thing is, I never told her that Niko and I knew each other. The current position he really likes Niko, Fann. Niko told him herself that she came with me at the restaurant. Obviously Ulan will attack me with all suspicion in his head, Fann. He'll think no."
"The only way you have to be honest. You need to be honest about your relationship with Niko."
"I don't want to hurt him, Fann."
"The more you keep it a secret, the more you hurt it."
