Chapter 3 - The Simplicity

Lavanya hesitantly gives her right hand to Arzan. Arzan turned her palm. It turns out that Arzan wrote his phone number on Lavanya's palm.

"Oh my God. I thought what are you going to do. Even though you can type it directly on my cellphone," said Lavanya.

"This is different from the others. Well then you hurry inside. I will take care of it from here."

"Yes. Again, thank you very much."

"You're welcome."

Lavanya entered the Restaurant while being watched by Arzan from a distance. Arzan just wanted to make sure that Lavanya entered the Restaurant safely. Lavanya glanced behind his. And Arzan was really watching her. Lavanya gave a smile to Arzan which Arzan replied with a smile too. Over time Lavanya was no longer visible. After that Arzan decided to leave the place.

"Why is that woman so adorable?" Arzan thought while looking down.

Inside the Restaurant, Lavanya does the same thing. She looked at her palms. Where in the palm of her hand is Arzan's phone number.

"Why do I feel happy like this every time I meet him? His simplicity makes me feel comfortable when I'm around him. Moreover, he is the one who always helps me in the near future," Lavanya thought with a smile.

"Miss Lavanya," said someone from inside the Restaurant.

It turned out that the person was a client who was meeting with her today. Lavanya immediately turned into an authoritative figure like company leaders in general.

"Yes Sir. Please. Can we just start the meeting."

The meeting lasted for 2 hours. Discuss about each other's companies that will work together in the future. After the meeting was over, Lavanya immediately decided to return to the Office. Because it's still noon and work hours haven't finished yet. When Lavanya came out of the Restaurant, Lavanya saw the figure of the man who had helped her from the pickpocket earlier. Arzan.

"Arzan?" called Lavanya and Arzan immediately turned to him.

"Why are you still here?"

"On purpose. I waited for you until the meeting was over."

"Geez. Don't wait. I'm going home now too."

"Well then I will take you. Just pretend I'm escorting you from the front."

"No need. I can go home alone."

"No. You've almost been hurt twice. And I don't want you to be on the road again. Now, where are you going and I will take you."

"Thank you very much, Arzan in advance. I want to go back to the Office. The name of the company is PT. Jaya Guna."

"Okay, I know the place. Let's go."

"I... Yes."

With feelings of joy mixed with confusion, finally Lavanya was escorted by Arzan from the meeting place to the Office. Arzan currently doesn't know if the Office that Lavanya is referring to belongs to her own biological Father. And it will surely fall into her hands one day when her Father decides to retire from the world of work.

While traveling from the meeting place to the Office, it's safe. Moreover, there is Arzan who looks after her. After a long time on the road, now finally Lavanya and Arzan arrived at PT. Jaya Guna. Lavanya gets down from her car to thank Arzan.

"Thank you so much for coming with me."

"Yeah, you're welcome. Well then I will go first, okay?"

"Yes. Thank you again very much."

"You're welcome."

Arzan immediately left from there. I don't know what activities Arzan will do after taking Lavanya to the Office. Because currently Arzan still doesn't have a permanent job. Arzan's future is still unclear. Very different from Lavanya who already has a bright future. Arzan is also currently living alone. Both of his parents have died and Arzan is the only child.

"Lavanya."

It turned out that the one who called her was Dhira. Lavanya immediately approached him with a very happy face.

"Hey Dhira."

"What are you doing? It's getting weirder. What's going on?"

"Why? Said I'm okay. Uh, let's eat. It's break time right."

"Hmm, okay. Come on."

Lavanya and Dhira went to find a place to eat near the Office for lunch. During lunch, Lavanya finally tells all the events between her and Arzan. Dhira as her best friend is happy to hear Lavanya's story. Moreover, Lavanya looks very happy when she tells the figure of the man named Arzan. Dhira doesn't feel jealous of Lavanya at all.

"Oh my God. That's good. It means he is the person he is," said Dhira.

"Yes. He is special in his simplicity."

"So you're starting to like me?"

"Eh, no. That's not what it means. Well, forget it. I don't want to put my hopes too high on a man. Moreover, it's not clear who he is either."

"Yeah, yeah. But hopefully he's a good man who can take care of you and keep you happy."

"Amen. Hopefully if God has arranged it. Well, we can continue eating again. Soon the break will be over."

"Ready Boss."

Lavanya and Dhira continued their lunch together. Even though Lavanya is the daughter of a company owner, Lavanya is still fair and wise. He didn't want to take his hours for lunch. Moreover, this lunch hour was used to discuss someone he didn't know too closely.

After finishing lunch, Lavanya went straight into her Father's room.

"Daddy," Lavanya called in a spoiled tone.

Maybe people who are not used to hearing it will say that Lavanya is disgusting. Like a little child. In fact, Lavanya has entered the age of 24 years. Especially for people who know Lavanya in the Office. Lavanya is very authoritative when in front of her employees and will be very helpful when in front of her Father and older Brother.

"Lavanya. How was the meeting dear? Was it smooth?"

"Fine, Dad. So the result of the meeting earlier was—"

Without further ado, Lavanya immediately explained the results of the meeting this afternoon at the Restaurant with her Father. Lavanya can be professional in the Office even though it's the fault of her Father's own company. Moreover, Lavanya actually still has a lot to learn to lead the company. Be it from her Father or her older Brother.

The Father who wants his company besides going to his son, he also wants his company to go to his daughter. Very patiently Father taught Lavanya about being a company leader. And Lavanya tries to do her best for her family-owned company.

"Okay, the report is received. Then you can continue your work, dear. I also have one more meeting outside."

"Okay dad."

"Apart from discussing work problems, you don't want to tell Dad anything else? You seem really happy. What makes you happy like this, dear?"

"No Dad. I'm just used to it. Then I want to go back to my room, Ok. Dad's spirit is working."

Again Lavanya did not answer the question from her Father. Again, Lavanya just left him. It seems Lavanya is still not ready to tell her Father about Arzan's figure.
