Thomas really made me do a shitty morning activity. I had to wake up early, missing breakfast with Aunt Merry just to pick him up at the apartment. Ridiculously, I couldn't refuse not because I didn't have the courage. I saw that Thomas was really busy with his files. So... what that man was asking for wasn't just an excuse.

He needs my help.

So here I am now. Choosing a suit that suits him-tie, cufflinks, watch, and shoes. It must all match, or else I will get him angry. That's also why I had to take the time to study colors. It must be because the stuff in Thomas's clothes comes in a variety of colors.

“Your clothes are ready,” I half shouted. I couldn't possibly talk in front of Thomas' bathroom door. Ugh! After sorting the clothes, I glanced at the dining table where there was nothing but a slice of bread with no jam on it.

“How can he have so much energy with just two slices of bread?” I said as I opened the fridge. I took out the eggs, sliced beef, lettuce, tomato, and cucumber

    “Why is this happening to me?” I grumbled with a grumpy face. Really, dinner this time made me sick. Plus, Lily hasn't come home yet because she has work to finish immediately. At least if Lily joins us at the table, I can hold my temper a bit.What exactly is this asshole doing?“You don't have to bother bringing us a lot of food like this, Charles.”I heard my aunt speak in a friendly tone that was so sincere. Charles brought two large paper bags with the logo of a famous restaurant as gifts. I saw them as useless items in this house. Aunt Merry had prepared a separate dish for dinner.I stirred the food on my plate with no intention of actually eating it. Several times Aunt Merry offered me various delicious dishes at the dining table, but I refused. Really, I didn't want to eat the food Charles had brought for dinner this time.Uncle's voice talking about the house renovation plan sounded like the buzzing of mosquitoes in my ears. I only replied as needed, one or two words that I

    I really wanted to get rid of this uncomfortable feeling. Even though the vibe was quite relaxed and the song I was listening to was pleasant, it still felt awkward.“Where are we going, sir?” I asked. For the longest time. His answer? Just a big smile and a mischievous grin. Typical of a man named Thomas Edison. More often than not, he was annoying with his multiple desires, dizzying with so many detailed things he wanted, not to mention that sometimes he acted like a sulking five-year-old.I don't understand why so many people admire him. I know he has extraordinary capacity as a leader. But... I guess that's a performance Thomas often gives in front of many people. In front of me? It's a different story.Just like this afternoon. Even though his meeting schedule with Sofie had been arranged in such a way. It was a little difficult to contact the woman in the middle of her busy schedule with the launch of the new product she was managing. Sofie Ansela, the daughter of a rich family.

    Six months had passed since all the drama.“Is there a follow-up meeting?” Helena asked Wilna who was still going through some files. Because of Helena's question just now, Wilna looked up and stared at her best friend and boss. She seemed to think before she finally spoke.“I don't think so. Besides, all your dealings with the production and marketing teams have been handled by Gio. He's reliable.”Helena chuckled. “But afterward, he must have complained about a lot of things, especially that he couldn't go back to his apartment because he had too much work at Nakia.”Wilna spluttered. “Who told him to live so far away from the office?”“Sometimes I feel sorry for Gio. He's adapting a lot to his surroundings but there's no denying it, if that's what you have to do. Right?”Wilna nodded enthusiastically. “Should we ask him to transfer? Gio is a potential employee for Nakia, Helena. Do you know how much of an impact he could have on Nakia's survival?”“I know,” Helena replied immediate

    “What's got you in such a mood?” asked Wilna after returning from lunch. In her hand was the cup of coffee Helena had ordered. At first, she thought she would hear an exciting story from Helena about her meeting with her future in-laws. But there seemed to be something wrong here.Helena, who was originally cheerful, looked somber.“Nothing,” Helena said with a fake smile.Wilna raised one eyebrow, not believing Helena's words. She sat on the sofa in front of Helena and offered her the coffee she had brought. “Oh, come on, you can't fool me. How long have I known you?” Wilna asked as she savored her cup of coffee. “Your face looks more pathetic than any tragic play I've ever seen.”Helena just sighed as she took the coffee and sat next to Wilna. The heat that the coffee cup brought to her palm made Helena hold it tighter. She hoped Wilna would give up and stop asking questions. But who was she trying to fool? This was Wilna-the friend who could always get her to talk, even when she di

    Helena stood in the room with her suitcase open in front of her. Some of her clothes seemed to be scattered on the big bed, as well as some other necessities that she had to put in the suitcase. Occasionally, she looked out the window, where the mansion's garden looked green and beautiful.“Miss Helena, what else do you need?” asked Vania, the maid who assisted Helena during her stay at the main house.“I don't know, I'm confused,” Helena chuckled in disbelief. “I haven't traveled like this in a long time.”“I'll help you and make sure you don't leave anything behind while you're abroad.”“Thank you Vania.” At least Vania's words relieved her. “Don't forget my hairdyer. In case it's not provided there, I'm too lazy to find a new hairdryer.”“Yes, Miss Helena.”Hanry entered after knocking on the door.“Papa?” Helena looked surprised not by her father's arrival but by what was in his hand. “Let me carry it. Why don't you ask the servants to bring it here?” Helena grumbled. Hanri brough

    “Good evening, Mr. Hanry and Helena,” Alaric greeted in a polite tone. He was waiting for Helena and her father to come out of the hotel for dinner. As per his promise to take them to one of the recommended restaurants not far from the hotel where they were staying.“The police chief isn't as busy as I thought,” Helena said with a laugh. She thanked Alaric for his concern just before he invited her to get into the car. Her father was already inside and sitting comfortably.“I've been busy but I've put in a lot of time to entertain you. When else will you visit this place?” Alaric laughed lightly. “Or are you planning to visit again?”“I don't know yet.”“Or... you, Mr. Hanry? I feel very honored to meet you in person. Many of the things I've heard about the Edison Group being what it is today are all thanks to you.”Hanry laughed. “I haven't kept up with the Edison Group for a long time. My son is doing well, I'm just an old man waiting for my bank account to fill up with the company'

    The next morning, Helena woke up feeling much lighter and calmer. In fact, if Helena were to be honest, it was one of her best mornings ever. Waking up to a window with a beautiful, serene view of the city. The air was cool and made Helena feel at home on the balcony of her room.Today Helena planned to visit a museum that exhibited some famous artworks and if she was lucky, Helena wanted to bring one of them (if it sold) for her collection or to gift a client who loved artworks. It was for the benefit of her company as well since Helena did not rule out gift-giving as a strategy to make the partnership work.“I think it's time for me to go,” Helena said as she organized her small bag. She didn't want to leave anything behind. Today her father was not accompanying her. There was an invitation to lunch with an old acquaintance and of course, they discussed some important matters. It wasn't that Helena didn't want to be involved but she wanted to make the most of her time in Switzerland

    “Are you sure I don't need to accompany you?” asked Michael with a doubtful look. Today, Helena had asked to be taken to meet Vena, Michael's mother. I didn't know what they were going to talk about, but Helena didn't seem to want to share it easily. Her excuse was to personally deliver the gift she had bought in Switzerland, especially for Michael's mother.“Yes, I'm sure.” Helena smiled meaningfully. “Oh, come on. Don't give me that look.” Helena's hand just reached out and touched Michael's cheek. He immediately closed his eyes to feel the tenderness Helena was offering him. He grasped the hand tightly and gave it a few light pats.“The last time you saw my mother, you decided to take a week's vacation to Switzerland. Sounds familiar to me, doesn't it?”Helena laughed. “That's just you thinking too badly. I went on vacation with Papa, nothing bad happened and in fact... I came back with full confidence. You should be grateful that I went on vacation, right?”Michael frowned but cou

    Not only Angga, but the girl in front of him was staring in disbelief at the figure who had suddenly appeared around them.“You ... who are you?” asked the girl with an unkind look. ”Don't you mind our time.”Gadis smiled cynically. “Is that true?” The gaze that never left Angga's figure was slightly distracted to stare at the girl who had just spoken from such a close distance. “Am I a bother, Mr. Angga?” asked Gadis in a casual tone of voice.She didn't need to use her high tone because she was already emotional and disappointed. A flat tone was enough, but seriously, Gadis wasn't going to intimidate them both. Especially the man who seemed to be growling while holding back his annoyance.“Who is he? Do you know her?”“Are you in Bandung? What are you doing here?“ Angga ignored the question of the girl he was dating today. Her name was Sheila, a colleague at the hospital whom

    The amazing girl was happy. Her smile wouldn't leave her face and her eyes were shining with happiness. For almost five hours she posed in front of the camera, not to mention changing her clothes several times and matching which part of the corner was the right one for shooting. And there was still more she had to do at the official Velue Jewelry outlet in Bandung.Maybe it's because of her determination to get rid of the problems that are still entangling her, and she refrains from telling her two friends. It's not that she doesn't want to, but for the past two days Gadis has been coming home late. The job that King gave her doesn't give her any breaks at all. But she feels grateful because she's busy. So her thoughts were not always about Angga's words and what she should do about their relationship.Gadis didn't even think about Leo's words. Gadis's main goal this time was to finish the job that she had already taken the risk of doing well. She also examined one by

    Did the annoying continuation of the conversation between Angga and Gadis happen? No.Gadis' condition did not allow her to continue all the words that were on the tip of her tongue. All the swearing seemed to be able to come out because of the frustration and tightness she felt. What Angga said was outrageous. All the things that had happened to her in the past were spinning around in her head.Making Gadis lose concentration. Repeatedly her name was called to follow directions that they thought were easy, but today Gadis seemed to have lost control. Unfortunately, all of that could not be expressed because of the circumstances. There was a part of Gadis that kept reminding her strongly, looking at the condition Gadis was in at the moment.That bastard of a boyfriend of hers. He could cause her mood to fall apart.“I'm sorry, Ms. Ransi,” said Gadis, looking down dejectedly. She didn't know how many times she had apologized, but gadis was not

    “Where have you been, Dis?” asked Manda, who greeted Gadis's arrival with surprise. Both she and Lily had been waiting for Gadis to return. It wasn't a problem with the message that Gadis had sent saying that she would be home late, but ... this was out of the ordinary for Gadis. Was it because of her side job that Gadis was coming home late.“Eh, who gave you a drop off?” Lily still hadn't taken her eyes off the HRV car that had just passed right in front of the gate, making her curious. "Mr. Foreigner, huh?" she teased immediately.“Oh, we're full now.” Manda laughed. ”What's in here?”“When you're full, you don't need to ask what's in it,” said Gadis as she continued to climb the stairs. As soon as she got out of the car, she felt so tired. The only thing she wanted to do right away was to clean up and change her clothes. Then curl up in a blanket and fall asleep with sweet dreams.But unfortunately, it was not easy for her to get it considering that Manda and Lily were still aroun

    “You're really annoying, Jungle King!” Gadis couldn't do anything but fasten her seat belt properly. Even though her head felt like it was going to explode, her eyes were already flashing an extraordinarily high level of dislike. Not to mention, the deepest desire in her was for the fist she had to be able to nestle into King's face as he stared at her carefree.Even pouting!The man sitting next to Gadis was a crazy man!“How annoying is it?” King folded his arms across his chest. ‘I'm billing you for my work, you know. Besides, you should be grateful, you don't have much work today. Compared to the others? You could finish at ten o'clock at night. Are you working or being worked on?’ King laughed.“Son of a bitch!”“Well, it's been a long time since I heard you swear so rudely. I thought your mouth had repented, but apparently not yet.”King is the patient tester that God gave him in his life.“Be careful driving, okay. I love my car even though I paid it off.

    “Wow, the famous model candidate has finally returned to the cage,“ joked Afandi with a wink as he saw Gadis entering his work area. The one who was being teased just pouted as she pulled up her work chair. She sat back comfortably while taking a long sigh and unwinding her hair.“I'm really fed up with this dual job,” complained Gadis but then laughed.“You should be grateful because your income has doubled,” teased Panji, who had just arrived with a cup of coffee. ”Eh, do you want me to make you an iced cappuccino?”Gadis didn't immediately agree. Panji, Afandi, and Hary, when they offered help, there was always something they wanted. Gadis didn't want to get into more trouble than just asking for someone's private phone number.“How much do I need to pay?” asked Gadis with suspiciously narrowed eyes.Panji was clearly laughing hard. ”You're really sensitive about this kind of thing, Dis.”“Brother Panji, the price list is written on your forehead.”This time, the uproarious laughte

    “What are you doing, Dis?” asked Manda with great curiosity. This evening, they were eating for free. Apart from the many side dishes brought by her mother, Gadis, her friend kindly wanted to stay busy in the kitchen even though she had just returned from work. She also said that she was not too tired because she was being driven by a colleague from the office.Of course Manda and Lily were curious even though their hearts were happy because the money for this dinner could be used for other things.“Create a status,” replied Gadis briefly. Her mouth was still chewing the rice she had just cooked, complete with spicy basil chicken. ”To make the burning souls even hotter.”Manda's forehead wrinkled. “I didn't see the status you made, Dis. Where is it? I'm curious,” Manda quipped, now busy looking at her cellphone. There wasn't a trace of dinner left on her plate. Besides being delicious, it was also free. When else w

    Gadis stopped dead in her tracks. Reflexively, she held back King, who was walking alongside her, to stop.“Why?” King asked with an annoyed look. ‘They said they wanted to buy pudding. That's it,’ King pointed without feeling strange at all. ”That counter, right?”“Um... can you make a different route?”King stared at Gadis in surprise. “We can't. Why would we go around when we can go straight?” But then, King chose to tease Gadis who never stopped talking. “Or do you still want to be alone with me?”“Don't be crazy, okay.” Gadis chose to turn around. Even so, her eyes returned to the same point; the point that made her decide to cancel the event of buying her favorite pudding at the corner of the mall not far from where she was standing now.Even though during lunch with King it was not enjoyable at all; because this man really tests a girl's patience, there is so

    “Your schedule is also busy, huh,” King said as Gadis sat not far from his desk. He deliberately called the girl for a follow-up discussion. No, King had no intention of raising the flag of war this early.For him, this Monday felt special. At least he went to the office with a sense of enthusiasm even though he had to struggle with Jakarta's traffic jams again. Why is that? Because today is payday. Yoo-hoo ... the salary that will be deposited in his account this afternoon is what King has been waiting for all month. Apart from wanting to make sure that the bonus in his account is correct, there is something he wants to buy right away.“Well, that's how it is,” said Gadis, sighing softly.“Are you unusually not excited? Why? Are you giving up because of your busy schedule?” asked King, giggling. He also held out a planner that he had just made at home related to the division of work in his work division. He had even adjusted it to fit Gadis' schedule. Some of his other subordinates t
