Dia yang kupilih

Part 19

Orked mengemas file-filenya diatas meja. Shila datang menghulurkan satu file candidate.
"Ked, ni budak intern. You tolong I boleh. I kena pergi outlet. You just explain appointment letter and bawa dia tengok office." pinta Shila.
"Alright. Department mana ni?"
"Account. I dah inform Madam Choo. Thanks Ked. Nanti I belanja Sopoong." Shila menggalas handbag nya dan mengambil kunci kereta.

Beberapa minit kemudian datang seorang gadis berusia awal 20an. Orked seperti pernah melihat gadis ini. Dia membuka file.

"Aleya Maisara binti Dato' Johan Ibrahim." Gadis itu duduk dengan sopan. Dia membalas senyuman Orked.

"I macam pernah tengok you.."
"Hi ms, I Aleya, adik Melissa. Kawan Abang Josh right?"
"Ya..." Orked hanya tersenyum. Dia menerangkan appointment letter dan menjelaskan peraturan peraturan syarikat. Bagus budak ini, walaupun masuk kerana anak kawan Bos, masih menghormatinya sebagai HR disitu.

Selepas menunjukkan sekitar pejabat, Orked menghantar Aleya ke department akaun.

"Ms Orked, nanti lunch hour boleh teman I lunch. Cafe abang Josh kat bawah. Since I tak ada kawan lagi." Aleya tersengeh meminta.

"Sure." Orked membalas mesra. Manja, macam Alice. Bisiknya.

**********************************
Orked dan Aleya masuk ke dalam cafe milik Joshua. Mereka duduk dan membuat pesanan. Aleya melambai ke arah Joshua. Wajah Joshua sedikit terkejut. Dia datang kearah meja mereka berdua.

"I miss your salmon spaghetti. Can you cook for us today?" Aleya meminta.
"Okay.. Both of you order same spaghetti rite?" Joshua tidak banyak kata dan terus menuju ke kitchen.
"Yup." jawap Orked ringkas.

"Thank you Ms teman I. Actually I dah lama tak jumpa Abang Josh. I miss him, I takut awkward so I ask you to teman I. Sorry." Aleya berterus terang. Dia punya sedikit rasa bersalah.
"It's okay. I pun tak ada teman lunch hari ni. And, no need to call me Ms."
"Erm.. Okay, Kak Orked, but I will call you Ms dekat office. Nanti orang mengata I." Aleya berseloroh.

Makanan mereka tiba tidak lama kemudian. Joshua duduk disebelah Orked. Mereka berbual bual seketika. Bertanyakan mengapa Aleya ada disini dan sebagainya.

" Ked, I morning hari ni, balik sama. " pesan Joshua sebelum menyambung kerja.

Aleya hanya memerhatikan mereka.
"My sister should watch this and move on I think..." Aleya bersuara perlahan.

"Hmm?"Orked tidak faham.

"Joshua, he like you."
Orked tersedak. Cepat cepat Aleya menghulurkan air kosong.
"No lah. We just friend." terang Orked.
"I tak cakap both of you ada apa apa. I cakap Josh like you." usik Aleya lagi.
"No such a thing my dear." Orked meneguk air kosong.
"I pernah tengok mata tu... Mata tengok Kak Lis dulu... I dah tak nampak masa dia pandang Kak Lis di Sunway itu hari..Rupanya I nampak hari ni.. Pada you.." perlahan Aleya menuturkan apa yang dirasanya.

Orked tidak menjawap. Aleya kemudiannya menyambung lagi.
"I really like Joshua, he loved my sister so much. Pandai ambil hati mummy and daddy, of course he's good looking too. He take care of me like his own sister, I can be friend with Alice too. Nothing I can hate about him. That's why I feel greedy. I want him to be with Kak Lis again." mata Aleya berkaca.

Orked menggengam jemari Aleya.
" Don't worry, there's nothing happen between us. "
" I'm sorry I said this Kak Orked. I'm really sorry. "
"It's okay.."

*********************************

"Hi Alice, how are you?"
Panggilan dari Aleya membuatkan Alice menamatkan panggilannya dengan Rafael.
"Hi Leya, lama tak call I."
Aleya hanya ketawa dihujung talian.
"What's up?"
"I nak tanya..."
"What?"
"You brother date someone.. Or.. He like someone now?"
"Hahaha. Woww.. Why? Tak dapat jadi adik ipar, you nak jadikan I adik ipar you pula ke?" saja Alicia mengusik.
"No la.... Alice, you tak nak Josh dengan Kak Lis balik ke. You know.. Kak Lis starting to regret all her wrongdoing. I think she still miss your brother."

Alicia mengeluh perlahan.
"I tak nak masuk campur. I just nak my brother happy. Bukan kita tak pernah cuba sebelum ni. I rasa ni bukan hak kita dah.. Let them find their own happiness.."

Lama Aleya diam. "I belum give up Alice, I want my sister to be happy too."

"It's up to you. But I'm sorry to say this, it's your sister who left my brother and I don't want him to face the same thing again. Kak Lis is so pretty, she's smart, famous, nice, she will meet someone better. Better than my brother."

Aleya hanya diam. Dia memandang Melissa dibalik pintu biliknya.

'I'm sorry Kak Lis.. '
