Adakah aku membuat keputusan yang bijak dengan menerajui HR Department? This means I have to leave my current job....sepuluh tahun bersama organisasi antarabangsa....my second home. Musnah impian aku.
I reached my cellphone and dialed....
Me : Sorry to wake you up this early..., but can I see you? We need to talk....
The voice on the other end..., "Sure. Meet me in the office at 10 am today."
I hung up. I know what I should do.....
After I was done with my shower, I left the bedroom and peeked into the living area. I saw Emir sitting at the kitchen counter sipping coffee.
"Good morning Emir.....sedapnya bau kopi tu...?", I greeted him. He turn and had a surprised look on his face.
"Good morning you....you're up early and it's not even 7...", he replied. I gave him a big smile and walked over to him. I stood next to him as he pour coffee for me. "Here you go....freshly brewed...Colombian coffee."
I took a seat next to him and sniff the coffee...."Hmmm....nice smell...", and I sipped twice even though it's hot....Emir tersengih memerhatikan gelagat aku.
"You are up early too....?" I asked Emir.
"Me..? I'm used to it....5 am I'm up 6 am I hit the gym. Since I had a guest at home I did a bit of weight lifting and came back about 15 minutes ago.", he replied. "Did you sleep well...?", he asked.
"Yeah, a little.....did lots of tossing and turning...maybe all the coffee I had last night....", I explained. "Actually, I need to leave soon. I've got to go back to the office and meet my father for a short meeting....Unfinished business....you know....".
"Okay, I understand.....what time you're leaving?", Emir asked. His hands caressed my back.
"Once I finish my coffee....", I answered and took another sip of the hot coffee. "Just between you and me.....I planned to leave the country for a while.....tukar angin. Sambung belajar then buat part time work. I should be okay....kan?", I placed my arms on the high kitchen counter and lay my head on my arms.
Emir looked at me with so much love. He slide his fingers through my hair and tucked them neatly behind my ear. "hmmm.....that bad huh...,?", was his response.
"Yup....I feel suffocated.", I replied.
"How long will it take me to see you again...?", he wants to know. He brushes the back of his hands on my cheek.
"I don't know....I really don't know....." I whispered.
"Okay....don't make me wait too long.....I am not getting any younger...", he chided me. That made me giggle and I lightly punched his arm. He caught my hand in mid air and lift me off of my high chair. I fell into his arms. I placed my other arm in between our chest but Emir was quick. He had my arms, lift it up and place them around his neck. Our face are now inches away but I think he could sense how uncomfortable I was.....that he slowly let go of my arms. I retrieve my steps and just lean against my chair but still facing him. I thought he would fought harder......

"Hard to get ya.....it's okay, I like a little challenge now and then....I am going to miss you....you know, very much.", Emir said as he stroke my back a few times. Strong yet gentle hand. It was so comforting.....surprised kan coming from a playboy maybe tak ada makna.
But I know how I feel and I can't lie. "Thank you....I am flattered....I am going to miss you too.....", I said and I hugged him. I slipped my arms around him and I can feel him against my body. He pulled me gently. I hugged him tight. "I like you a lot Emir.....I really do. Only time can tell.....", I said slowly.
He pulled me back a little and he cupped my face. He kissed my lips. His thumbs stroking my cheeks. And he place another kiss. This time a little bit harder while his tongue make its way between my lips. Aku kaku. My hands are now on his thighs. He kissed me again and this time he sucked my bottom lip.
I kissed him back. His hands reached my back and stroking lower and lower until they reached my bottom. He slowly rubbed with his large hands. I was taken a back that I pull away. "Shhhhh.....", Emir said. Emir wiped my wet lips with his thumbs. He accepted my decision.
"We better stopped before it leads to something else.....", I reminded him.
"Yeah....you're right....don't chase me away from your life.....", he understood.
Aku tersenyum sahaja. I never meant to chase you away Emir. Can't you see that.....I don't want to look cheap in front of you. I believe hard to catch. You work on your love life and learn to respect my choice. When I am ready to be swift away by you.....only you know when the time is right.
I took his hand, kiss it and placed it next to my cheek.
"I got to go now.....I don't want to be late for my meeting....I'll call you later...?", I told him.
"Okay...okay....you call me before you leave the country.....?", he asked.
"Of course...I will....bye...", I replied and walked over to the sofa. I grabbed my bag and Emir followed me from behind.
