CHAPTER NINE
Adriel is now struggling with the files that have piled up on his office desk, he is getting more and more tired, it feels like a mess and now the endless work makes Adriel uncomfortable, but that feeling disappears when suddenly he feels someone hug him from behind. His heart was a little happy, because he knew who the owner of the flower scent was and the person who dared to hug him in the office. Vania.
CUP
Vania kissed Adriel’s cheek lightly. She really knew how to quell Adriel’s anger.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
“Honey, I’m sorry. I’ve been very busy lately, because today I have an empty schedule. I took the time to visit you.” Vania tightened her hug and now buried her face in Adriel’s shoulder.
Adriel melted with the sweet attitude Vania showed him, how could he be angry. After all, Vania’s mistakes are not worth the betrayal she committed. What if one day Vania finds out, if she has. Marry. Adriel shook his head quickly until his daydream was broken, he immediately stood up and immediately pulled Vania’s body to hug him.
“Next time don’t leave me unheard.” He said softly while stroking Vania’s long mane.
Vania who was confused by Adriel’s attitude towards her just nodded in approval of Adriel’s words and returned the hug more tightly. “Never, next time I’ll try to teach you Adriel.”
“Promise?.”
“Yes, promise.”
Adriel tightened the hug even more, inhaling deeply the scent that had made him feel homesick for days.
“Adriel is tight, can you let go of your arm?” Vania patted Adriel’s back as a signal because she needed oxygen to take a deep breath. Adriel immediately released his embrace, he smiled at Vania. This girlfriend is really pretty.
“So explain to me, where have you been these days?”
“I’m busy preparing for my departure to Japan, taking care of my passport and so on. I also have to re-examine my employment contract.” Vania said trying to explain, Vania’s statement made Adriel feel like he was at number one after work. Vania really wants to pursue her career first. “Tomorrow I will leave.” she continued.
“Yes I know.” He said without taking his eyes off Vania. “I’ll take you.” Continued Adriel again.
“I don’t think it’s necessary Adriel, isn’t your schedule very busy? I don’t want to bother you.”
“No, I will tell Rizal to clear my schedule tomorrow. You are more important, you will live in Japan that I don’t even know when you will come home, I will definitely miss you very much.”
“Adriel please don’t bother, I really don’t want to bother you. I won’t be going alone, my manager and stylist will also come.”
Adriel took a deep breath, this time he wouldn’t budge. He also wants Vania to depend on him, he also wants to see Vania’s departure at the airport. No, this time he will be tough on Vania.
“I will take you, I can take care of my work while accompanying you, no refusal.” He said at last.
Vania nodded slowly with a slightly bent face. Adriel pulled Vania into a hug again.
“I just want to see you, you know I’m in a lot of pain if I can’t see that pretty face of yours.”
Vania smiled instantly when she heard the sweet words that were said to her, Adriel really understood Her.
“Yes, then you can drop me off tomorrow.”
“That’s good.”

Tonight Adriel went home because he wanted to get some change of clothes to wear tomorrow, the house was quiet, maybe because everyone was asleep. Adriel looked at his watch, it was seventeen past eleven. It’s almost midnight. Actually Adriel very rarely occupies his private apartment, he will stay there if his mind is confused and he needs time to himself. And now, he’s back there for one reason, he doesn’t want to be at home because of Hana’s figure.
He went straight to his room which was on the second floor, intending to clean himself up for a while and get a change of clothes, and of course went straight back to his private apartment. Moreover, his father did not protest, Adriel reasoned that he wanted to focus on taking care of the work there first.
Just as Adriel entered the room, he was silent for a moment. The atmosphere in the room didn’t change at all, it’s just that there was another scent that now wafted through his senses. Maybe this is the smell of soap used by Hana who is now curled up sleeping on his mattress. He walked slowly, taking off his clothes one by one with occasional glances at Hana to make sure the little girl was still sleeping.
Drowsiness suddenly attacked Adriel as he was about to enter the bathroom.
“Ahhh… looks like I’ll be back tomorrow. After this I’ll sleep in David’s or Serran’s room, I’m really sleepy.” he thought, because he couldn’t possibly drive in this sleepy state.
In the end he decided to stay at home.
Not long after Adriel was done with his bathing business, he came out refreshed. He rubbed the small towel through his wet hair, he was also dressed in casual clothes and was ready to go outside to sleep in one of his brother’s rooms, however. His rarity suddenly stopped when a voice called out to him.
“Adriel are you home?” Hana asked in a hoarse voice because she had fallen a sleep earlier.
adriel was a little surprised when he saw Hana who was now looking at him with a sad look because maybe he was still sleepy, Adriel swallowed his saliva slowly when he saw the figure who was now on his bed. Maybe Hana woke up because she heard himself closing the bathroom door quite loudly.
One that Adriel noticed.
Why Hana’s appearance is a little different now, slightly messy hair and Hana’s condition who just woke up made Adriel pensive for a moment. Adriel’s hair-rubbing movement stopped suddenly, he didn’t understand himself. Even though Hana only wore a plain shirt and looked messy, but. Why does it look so different. In addition, her face, which was illuminated by a dim light, did not deny the radiance that came out of her face.
“Beautiful.” He said unconsciously, even the image of Vania in his head now suddenly disappeared from his memory. The longing that he said to his lover now seemed meaningless, replaced by the night view that appeared in his room at this time.
