City S
In the car driven by Gavriel, there was Queeneira sitting with her arms folded on her stomach, annoyed. As for Gavriel himself, driving with the occasional glance at Queeneira who was beside him, a line of smiles appeared when his best friend displayed such an adorable expression.
Gavriel couldn't see clearly, how the expression on the face of his best friend who from the beginning got into his car, had turned her head and was reluctant to look at him for a moment. Causing him to exhale strongly, with Queeneira moving slightly as a sign, if in fact she was paying attention to Gavriel.
"Que," called Gavriel in a flat tone, but if Queeniera was observant she would hear the frustrated tone of Gavriel Wijaya.
"Hmm," Queeneira muttered without bothering to turn her head, too lazy to see the handsome face of her best friend, who stopped the car as the traffic light in front of them turned red.
Gavriel turned to Queeneira, then brought his hand to hold hers and gripped Queeneira's hand.
"Queene, listen to me," said Gavriel, trying to keep Queeneira's hand in his, so Queeneira gave up and let Gavriel hold her hand.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Both of their hearts were beating. But unfortunately, one of them did not allow himself to be carried away in the increasing beat.
"Moreover Gavriel, what should I listen to?" asked Queeneira, turning to Gavriel, but unfortunately the traffic lights changed, making Gavriel discouraged from answering Queeneira's questions.
"Tsk." An annoyed snort escaped Queene's mouth, causing Gavriel to turn his head and look back at the road in front of him with a small smile.
Gavriel's grip tightened, making Queeneira flinch, then glared at Gavriel's hand which was gripping it tighter.
"Let me go, Gavriel," Queneira hissed, but unfortunately Gavriel just shrugged nonchalantly and continued on his way, not caring about Queeneira trying to let go of his grip.
"I won't let go, until you accept me back, Queeneira," Gavriel thought with a straight eye.
Finally the two arrived at the parking lot of Queeneira's apartment, with the owner of the apartment staring at Gavriel in disbelief.
"You know my apartment?" asked Queeneira looking at Gavriel in disbelief.
"Hn. I know all about you, Queene. Without exception, even I know the size-
"Hey! What size do you mean?" Queeneira shrieked in horror, as Gavriel took off his seatbelt while looking at her with a suspicious crooked smile.
"Ha-ha… What do you think, I mean your shoe size, Honey," Gavriel chuckled amused, rubbing affectionately Queeneira's hair which he brushed away roughly.
"Don't hold it."
"Tsk-tsk... How fierce, watch out you'll fall in love even deeper," teased Gavriel with his eyes staring into Queeneira's eyes, making a faint blush adorn the cheeks of Wardhana's favorite child, who immediately looked embarrassed.
Gavriel chuckled, then opened the door and walked quickly to open the passenger door, holding out his hand which of course was not accepted by Queeneira. Instead Queeneira got down and walked away from Gavriel immediately, but Gavriel quickly grabbed Queeneira's arm and pulled her up and hit his broad chest.
Grip!
Brukhh!
Instantly, the distinctive scent Queeneira had not inhaled from Gavriel filled the air storage space for a long time. only, making Queeneira unconsciously take a deep breath with her eyes closed.
Why is your scent getting tempting like this, Queeneira grumbled to herself.
"Listen to the pounding carefully, Que. My heart, why is it always like this when you are there or I am remembering you, even though in the past, when I did not know the meaning of you in my life, my heart was not like this. Don't you feel that in the past, I was just trying to get me home as soon as possible and hug you like this? Didn't you also promise to wait? Then why when I came home like this, you actually refused my presence, Queene."
Thump!
Queeneira fell silent, as Gavriel whispered softly, still holding her tightly. She didn't even know why she seemed reluctant to accept Gavriel easily, after 10 years she was left to live in waiting without the slightest news.
Her heart really wanted if she could quickly accept Gavriel, but there was an ego inside her that didn't let her heart win easily.
Queeneira slowly unraveled her best friend's possessive embrace, with Gavriel who this time did not hold back until finally Queeneira was released from Gavriel's embrace, who looked at Queene with trembling pupils, disappointed.
"Quee-
"Gavriel, I need space and I hope you understand. I also want you to know, if I don't like the way our meeting is like this. Not to mention the problem with Mr. Fredy, which you made to collapse in just one night. I-I don't know the current you."
"Queene, I can explain about that-
"No, I won't listen to your explanation."
"Queene, you just have to say please return it and I will do it, isn't it very easy," said Gavriel when again the company discussion was being discussed.
Was Queene more important than hearing his explanation about what really happened to the property company.
Queeneira stared in disbelief at what Gavriel said, hearing the arrogant tone spoken directly from Gavriel in front of her.
A mocking chuckle was heard from Queene, as she felt that what she heard was the most arrogant statement she had ever heard from the mouth of a Gavriel Wijaya.
Will there be anything more arrogant than this?
Either way, she didn't want to know more than this.
"Ha-ha… That's right, that's true. What the heck can't you do, even if you wanted to, you can destroy my company too and it's very easy. Ah! Even that is too easy for you, isn't it, Gavriel Wijaya? "
Staring blankly at Queeneira who was still looking at him with a mocking chuckle, Gavriel was about to open his lips but stopped when he was still holding back his emotional outburst.
How would you feel, if you were blindly accused of all kinds of things by the woman you love so much, just because of your carelessness and momentary emotions?
Gavriel was feeling it right now and he knew, if this was the risk that he had shown the attitude his women disliked the most, he shouldn't have threatened Queeneira at that time and made matters more complicated.
Damn it! Gavriel cursed under his breath.
"Can't argue, heh! Mr. Gavriel Wijaya? Hum… Because is it like the truth? Ah! Of course, I think that's enough for tonight and I hope we won't see each other again, excuse me."
With her last words, Queeneira left Gavriel who was silent, unable to prevent and without any further explanation of this misunderstanding.
"Damn it," squeaked Gavriel irritably, before getting back into his car, opening the door and closing it with a loud slam.
Brakh!
"Fuck!" cursed Gavriel by pounding the steering wheel in annoyance. He used his hand to rub his face roughly, then sighed and calmed himself down as fast as he could.
"Huft… Calm down, Gavriel. You know this isn't the end and you have to believe that Queene is just being emotional right now."
Trying to calm himself down, Gavriel started his car engine and then left the parking lot of Queeneira's apartment, returning to his own apartment with a broken heart.
While Gavriel was feeling uneasy, Queeneira, who had just arrived at his apartment, immediately locked herself in her room, ignoring Andien's curious questions about her dinner with Selyn.
"Queene, remember the day after tomorrow night is the party Doni was referring to. You remember right!" Andine remembered, but unfortunately Queeneira didn't listen, instead closing the door with thud left behind.
Slam!
"Gosh! Queene, why does she have such a temper? Does this have anything to do with having dinner with Selyn," Andine muttered, guessing. She shrugged nonchalantly, tried not to think about it and went back to her activities, painting her curly nails.
In her room, Queeneira immediately threw herself on her favorite bed, then covered her face with a small doll, the same doll that was in Gavriel's room, because she had deliberately made two, one for her and one of course for Gavriel.
"You, why say that to me? Why does it seem as if this is all my fault, why ask me to say please to you, only then will you return someone else's property."
Queeneira raved, as she felt Gavriel was too arrogant to take all things easy. She knew it was true that whatever if it was he would surely happen. But, why should he who asked not he himself who returned.
Why should she beg for forgiveness for others?
Why not just sincerely return it?
Does he want to show, if everything is in his hands? Want to show if he's already at the very top there? Want to tell if he could do everything?
"Tch… To hell with your power. I already hate you, Gavriel," Queeneira muttered angrily.

Sky Elty Apartment
The car driven by Gavriel arrived at the basement of the car park, he opened the car door and closed it immediately, then pressed the button on the small remote until a beep sounded, as a sign that the car was locked properly.
Stepping slowly, Gavriel squeaked in annoyance when he felt a vibration in his trouser pocket with an old vibration signaling a call.
On the screen of his cellphone was Aksa's name on it, so he took a deep breath before pressing the green button. The call was connected with him muttering softly as a substitute for the word hello.
[Boss, he asked to meet Mas as soon as possible. Should we refuse and change the schedule to another day? Tomorrow we will-]
"Hn. Another postponement of the schedule, we'll see what he has to say," Gavriel interrupted quickly, pressing the button for the floor where he lives.
[Okay, Boss!]
Ding!
"Hn. Anything else?" Gavriel asked, then stepped out of the elevator when the door opened.
[The party the day after tomorrow, the old lady asked you to try on a suit at the W&M boutique. Do you want to go there or do they send the suit to the apartment?]
"Hn. Let me go there, then clear the schedule for tomorrow until lunchtime is over. Understood, Aksa?" said Gavriel, this time he opened the door to his apartment, then closed it and instantly the room lights came on, with a robotic voice welcoming him.
Welcome home, Mr. Wijaya.
[Okay, I understand.]
"Hn. You also don't forget to order a suit there, look for a partner during the party, Aksa," Gavriel ordered in a flat tone, intending to tease Aksa but unfortunately Aksa only answered him flatly, unaffected by the temptation.
[No, thank you, Gav.]
"You will regret wasting your youth."
[Yes, Like you.]
Beep!
Gavriel was silent with his mouth gaping, when he heard a unanimous answer from his right hand. His intention was to equip the right hand, instead he was in check when that was the truth.
His face changed bright red, when he thought that Aksa must be laughing in his apartment there.
Then later, curses with cursing along with the zoo and its contents came out of Gavriel's lips, who was already annoyed at first when he heard the checkmate match from Aksa.
"Damn it, Aksa, pippp, pippp, pippp, watch out, you'll finish meeting me at the office," Gavriel cursed his assistant in the apartment there.
Meanwhile, Aksa, who is currently in his apartment room laughing freely, feels satisfied when replying to his arrogant boss' statement.
Does the boss not feel, if the one who should quickly get a partner is he himself, not his young self.
Uh! Actually the Boss is also young, but he is much younger. Ok, forget it, that's not what he wanted to talk about.
In essence, he still wants to be alone and he only wants the best for the Boss who he considers as his own brother.
"Quickly finish tomorrow's problem, so that Queene also quickly makes up with Gavriel," Aksa muttered hopefully.
