Lailatulqadar (Song of Missing For Fathers)
Chapter 45

10 Years passed and Laila and Qadar never saw their father again. The lives of the brothers have also improved.

Since Handoko rose to office, Laila resumed her school which was delayed. Even Handoko can raise Laila. And now Laila works for one of the companies in the city.

While Qadar has just graduated from High School and is now starting to enter college. It is no longer Handoko who financed Qadar school but Laila from her salary working in the company.

"City." Someone entered without knocking on the door first to Laila's room.

Laila who was busy struggling with work turned her head in shock. Apparently Julian who came, it was fitting that he did not knock on the door of Laila's room anyway he owned the company. A young CEO at PT. Nusantara who is now the closest person to Laila.

They were close for six months, but every time Julian expressed his feelings for Laila at that time Laila always said that she did not want to date before Qadar graduated from college and became a successful person.

Though Handoko has strongly agreed with their closeness, especially Mira. According to Handoko and Mira, his nephew deserves to know a man and have a serious relationship at the age of 25 years.

But again Laila refused. He felt his responsibility towards Qadar had not been completed as long as Qadar had not earned a college degree and was working in a good place.

"Sir Julian." Laila closed the laptop screen and got up from the chair.

"We had lunch. You're so busy working that you forget lunch" Julian said attentively.

Laila turned to the desk where there was a lot of work to be done. Usually, if you are doing a lot of work like this, Laila always orders food online and will eat while working in her room. But this time he did not have time to order food, he was too busy to forget time.

Now Julian invited her to lunch, and Laila hesitated to refuse.

Seeing the woman's confused expression, Julian could already guess what Laila was thinking.

"I don't want you to refuse my invitation anymore. We have lunch together we meet clients" Julian said, demanding.

"Good, Sir. A minute!" Laila grabbed the bag she had stored on the table, putting in the cell phone that was also lying on the table.

"Come!" Laila was preparing to leave with Julian.

The man smiled and walked with Laila out of the room. Not a few eyes that look at the two of them, can be said they are the center of attention of employees who are in the company. How not, Julian is a handsome, dashing and charismatic young CEO who is adored by many girls including the employees in the company itself. Who wouldn't envy seeing Laila walking side by side with Julian?

They think Julian can get a beautiful, sexy and classy girl. Instead of choosing Laila who is always dressed closed, unattractive and not as level as Julian.

They think Julian has been fooled by the appearance of Laila who is pretentious, quiet pretentious and expensive selling. Not infrequently they caught the two of them coming home together even though sometimes Laila refused to look very expensive selling, thought those who on average have envy of Laila.

While walking with Julian like this, Laila always felt uncomfortable. He realized that many pairs of eyes do not like to see the proximity to the CEO of the company.

Hence Laila more often refused Julian's invitation, avoiding the slander of people who might not like to see it.

But this time Laila couldn't resist. Moreover, Julian said they would meet with the company's clients. Everything related to work, then Laila could not possibly reject it.

A silver luxury car stops in front of the building when Laila and Julian arrive at the courtyard.

Someone got out of that car who is known to be Julian's personal driver.

"Please, Sir!" said the fat-bodied man while humbling his body.

"Thank you!" Julian immediately opened the door for Laila.

Being treated like this by her boss in front of people, made Laila ashamed. Though Laila can open the door herself and do not bother to open by Julian.

"Sir Trisno isn't coming?" ask Laila wonder.

"No, we'll go alone." Julian closed the car door and walked to the other door, got in and sat at the wheel. They were sitting next to each other in the car.

Before the car they were riding drove off and disappeared from sight, the gazes of the people who were there seemed reluctant to turn away. Still continue to pay attention until finally the car driven by Julian is no longer affordable by their netra.

A second later, Julian's car arrives at a fancy restaurant. They both went down and entered the restaurant.

A servant approached the two of them and led them to one of the tables Julian might have ordered in advance.

A little strange to be felt by Laila. How could Julian take him to lunch at a fancy restaurant like this. Laila knew if the menu in this restaurant must be very expensive. For lunch it feels too much if he is taken to the same restaurant. Is it possible because Julian wants to meet with clients so they come to this place? Laila was just guessing.

Laila's astonishment grew when a servant led them to a table where the table was far enough away from the other tables. Even the situation there also looks different, restaurant decorations look different from the decorations in other parts of the restaurant. Like intentionally made in such a way for a special event.

Seeing that Laila was drowning like a confused person, Julian just smiled.

"Come sit down and fuck?" Julian drags the chair to let Laila sit.

Without commenting, Laila sat with her eyes still circling around.

"Where's the client, sir?" tanya Laila started to make a sound.

"Client?" Julian chuckled, making Laila even more confused.

"Sir? Is something funny?" Laila frowned at Julian's little laugh.

"No. It's just. um sorry I lied to you." Julian stopped laughing, his face now looking more serious.

Laila's frown was still not understanding what her boss was saying.

"meaning?" Laila.

"I purposely invited you here to... " Julian paused his sentence.

The man reached into the pocket of the light gray suit he was wearing. Take something out of the pocket of the suit. A tiny transparent box that Laila believes if inside is jewelry.

Julian got up from the chair, walking closer towards Laila who was in deep confusion. Julian crouched down in front of Laila who was now turning her body to follow Julian's movements, but she still sat in place only her body turned to the side where Julian was crouching.

"Why father?" Laila was about to get up from her seat with her eyes turned to her right and left feeling embarrassed if anyone noticed her with Julian.

But the man kept Laila from sitting down.

Julian opened a small box that turned out to be a diamond ring.

"I wanted to propose to you, I knew you didn't like dating so I chose to propose to you. Will you marry me?" the man looked very sincere and serious.

Laila covered her mouth with both palms. It's like I can't believe what Julian's saying right now.
