"We'd better be like this, sir. This relationship is wrong because I am still in a marriage relationship. I hope you understand."
Evan pulled his hair back. Coinciding with that his phone that was in the pocket of his cloth pants rang, then he reached out and pulled out the flat object.
"Yes, Mi?"
Alisa knows without seeing who contacted Evan is Morena without seeing him directly.
"Van, can you come home tonight and talk to your grandmother?" Morena's voice was quite audible to Alisa without pressing the hardener button.
"Tonight can't, Evan has an appointment with Alisa. It's yes, Mi.. Evan's busy." End that connection and it's put back in his pocket.
Evan returns to meet Alisa who is also looking at him.
"We talk, we solve our problems that I don't know if we have problems." Evan's voice sounded frustrated. Who is not confused is suddenly rewarded 'keep distance' from a special person.
"I know who I am, sir. Everything your grandmother said was true. I don't want to tarnish your good name with our relationship."
Evan trembled looking at the pretty face of Alisa who now looked very serious.
"I'm going to get it straight and after you get divorced, I want our relationship to be made clear!" firmly Evan with emphasis in his tone of speech. Her hands rest on one table to get a closer look at Alisa.
Alisa was stunned by the sentence Evan said to her, honestly her heart also wanted the same thing. But, what are the circumstances that make him have to hold back.
Alisa carves a smile, trying to refrain from being lulled deep enough and being able to act professionally.
"Once again I'm sorry, I'm doing a lot of work, sir. It just so happens that I again crosschecked the report for our monthly meeting." Alisa subtly banishes Evan and Evan knows it.
"You can be off today. I want to talk to you!"
Alisa widens in shock as soon as Evan's hand pulls her out of her room, there's nothing else Alisa can carry unless she snatches her bag on the table.
The incident suddenly made Alisa's secretary stare in disbelief, similar to the soap opera scene he saw on television.
Honestly, Alisa is uncomfortable if her proximity to Evan is smelled by people in the office and will only cause hot rumors.
"I know you must be uncomfortable going through the lobby" Evan said as they both walked into the elevator. Evan pressed the elevator button down towards the basement, enough to make Alisa breathe a sigh of relief.
Evan's hands still faithfully hold Alisa's hand without wanting to take it off, until they both reach the basement carrying Alisa to her car parked there.
"Come in" said Evan, opening the car door.
Alisa nodded obediently following Evan's orders.
Without a word Evan drove his car out of the basement area. No words have been said from Alisa's lips other than waiting to see where Evan would take her.
The car drove at a moderate speed, Evan's serious face when driving undo Alisa's intention to talk. Evan's forehead puckered deeply, like he was thinking about something.
Evan just stopped his car in front of an unused building, enough to make Alisa bergidig horrified to think of what Evan would do by taking him to the old building that has not been completed.
"I don't know where to take you. We're talking here" said Evan, releasing the seatbelt to make it easier to move.
Evan stared at the beautiful face of Alisa who now looks more tapered than the first he saw. Maybe because of the woman's household problems that make her body weight reduced a little.
"I'll be honest with you, honestly I like you. I love you, Alisa. Not just our pretense as a cheating couple, but I want more. I want you."
Alisa is amazed, she really likes honest men and what they look cool and gentleman. Instead of a man who harbors his feelings.
"Have you forgotten that your grandmother betrothed you to another woman?"
"Ck." Evan was upset. "Can't you just talk about something else?"
"Because that's the case, sir. The problem is you're being betrothed to another woman and also your grandmother doesn't like me!" alisa said with a half-high tone.
Evan repeatedly troubled his rough face. Why is Alisa not sensitive to her feelings.
"Please, we should stay away. I don't deserve a gentleman like you." With her head down Alisa said it. His self-confidence suddenly disappeared, evaporating just like that.
"No. I don't want to stay away from you! I'll wait for you until your divorce is over. And we'll be together." Evan lifted Alisa's chin up until the two of them could make a face-to-face.
"Please understand, sir. Don't make this situation difficult, my situation is already difficult and don't be complicated anymore. I can't be with you." Suddenly his chest rumbled after saying that. I can't be honest with my own feelings, feeling supported.
"You're serious about your request? Because if you're serious, I won't ask you for me anymore."
Alisa was stunned, there was a pause long enough before she replied.
"I'm very serious. Please stay away from me."
***
Evan was shaken by his own feelings, his heart crumpled as if it were formless. It has not been two weeks since his last meeting with Alisa. The meeting that made their relationship really distant.
"Sir meeting is now ready. The managers are already in the meeting room." Hendra reported it while he was ready to bring the necessary files later.
Evan nodded weakly, he got up to stand ready to head for the meeting room. Suddenly his steps stopped, then he snorted resignedly. His meeting with Alisa is coming.
Everything leads to Evan who just set foot in the meeting room. No exception Alisa who was also staring at him, not long just a few seconds.
Monthly meetings that are often held at the beginning of the month are filled with several managers from each division who are also ready with their respective reports.
The meeting was opened by Evan who expressed his desire that in the next month there was a rise in sales. Next followed by Alisa who started from the Merlion financial manager.
Evan never stopped staring at Evan, alisa's love like not wanting to meet and seemed to avoid.
'I know you avoided my gaze, Alisa.' Inner Evan gnarled. He proved his words to not pursue Alisa anymore. The proof has been two weeks this he and Alisa have not met or Evan who did not meet Alisa, and vice versa.
'Please, don't look at me like that.' Shouted Alisa in her heart, knowing that Evan was paying attention to her right now. Know that even though they do not look at each other, enough hearts only feel.

This part keeps Evan and Alisa away, sorry for her long ups. Again, the story next door..
