"Hello?"

Lisa stepped out of the office building steadily. Her right hand holds a cellphone while her left hand carries her sky blue tote bag. The woman looked left and right, raised her hand and stopped the taxi.

"Who is this?" The female voice on the other end of the line sounded confused.

"Is it true that you are the wife of Mr. Surya?" Lisa asked bluntly. 

For some time, there was no answer from the other end of the line. But Lisa still waited patiently while sitting in the back seat of the taxi. The woman put her tote bag beside her and turned to see how busy the streets were that afternoon.

"Who is this? What's the matter?" Without answering Lisa's question, the woman's question was heard as an answer she had been waiting for.

Lisa smiled a little, "It doesn't matter who I am. The important thing is, at 7 pm tonight, you have to come to the Bumi Hotel. If you don't come, you will definitely regret it!"

"Hey, hey, who are you!? Why should I obey your words?"

"It's up to you whether you want to come or not. If you don't come tonight, that means you let your husband cheat behind your back!" Without waiting for a reply from the woman, Lisa immediately turned off their phone.

She deliberately disconnected their phone to arouse the curiosity of Surya's wife. If this is the way it is, the woman will be curious to death and can't help but come to Bumi Hotel!               

Instead of being late, Lisa decided to come straight to Bumi Hotel at exactly 6 pm. To kill her time, she laid herself on the soft mattress while watching boring TV shows. That night, she did not feel hungry, perhaps because of the nervous feeling that filled her stomach.

About half an hour later, there was a knock on the room's door. The woman got up from the bed, straightened her appearance and shouted, "Yeah, wait a minute!"

That night, Surya wore a black shirt along with light blue jeans. His hair was styled so neatly with a thick hair gel that his hair shone bright. His body emitted a masculine perfume that was thick with the smell of coffee. 

Although the man still looks old and certainly not attractive, at least Surya looks much more handsome that night than when he was at the office. 

"Mr. Surya, you finally came!" Lisa's hand swiftly held Surya's hand who wanted to close the door to the room. "Don't close the door, sir! Looks like the air conditioner in this room is broken, look at this, I can't stop sweating!"

Actually, her reason is very stupid. How could a room in a five star hotel have a broken air conditioner? So stupid but let's see if this fool will fall.                                                                           

"Sweating? Are you hot, baby girl?"

Lisa nodded her head spoiledly while embracing the man's arm. Before they walked away from the door, Lisa turned around and made sure the door wasn't tightly closed. It could totally destroy all of her plans!

"It's really hot, sir..." Lisa replied slowly while pretending to fan her face. The woman feels lucky because Surya is one of those stupid men who doesn't know that he is only being used.

"Jesus, is this a five-star or a cheap hotel? How dare they give you a room with a broken air conditioner! Wait a moment honey, let me go downstairs and scold the receptionist first!"

Surya made a movement as if he wanted to get up from the chair and come out of the room. But before the man actually came out and made her plan fail miserably, Lisa held his wrist.

"Stupid, you can call them by phone!" Lisa muttered to herself.

"Don't worry, sir. As long as you are here, the atmosphere in this room and my heart will feel cold!"

The man sat back across from her and smiled broadly, "Okay if that's what you want. Ah, let me help you. Ouch, it's a pity that you're sweating this much!"

"Ha ha!" Again and again, Lisa laughed dryly. She shook her head and chose to open the bottle of red wine she had prepared on the small table. "Come on, sir, I'll pour this wine into your glass. I hope that by drinking this, all your tiredness will disappear!"

As if hypnotized by the dark red wine, Surya immediately took a quick sip of the drink. After he gave it a shot, the man slightly slammed the glass on the table.

"Hah!" The man wiped the traces of red wine from the corner of his lips with his sleeve, "A glass of red wine is my favorite drink!"

"Honey, I came earlier than we promised today! I came half an hour early, hahaha! After all, I can't wait to see the most beautiful woman in our office…" Surya said, looking spoiled. His eyes behind glasses could not let go of Lisa's curve.

Lisa supported her chin with her right hand, "Yes sir, you did come earlier than our appointment. But, I came much faster than you, hahaha! Since 6 pm, I've been here waiting for you! After all, I'm the same as you, I can't wait to see you outside the office!"

Hearing that made the man's face turn red, either because of the liquor or something else. Surya chuckled a little and played his fat fingers on the handle of the glass.

Now, Lisa didn't know what else to say. Their age gap makes it difficult to open the topic of conversation. Should she talk about the boxing match that took place a few weeks ago in Indonesia? If she talked about artists, the man would definitely be silent!

Finally, after the silence enveloped the room for quite a while, Lisa decided to talk about work. It's boring but it's the only way to keep the guy from falling asleep because she's bored!

"Ah, actually, I invited you to this hotel to talk about this big project. What do you think of my suggestion before? I just need more coworkers, I'm sure the project will end successfully!"

"Lisa, I've already said back and forth that I just agree with your ideas.. Only now, you must comply with all my requests! If you obey, I guarantee your future at the company will be bright!" Surya replied enthusiastically.
