I don't want to overdo it, but this house is freaking me out. Trust me... It looks like fresh from a very scary horror movie!"Do you know what this house reminds me of?" I asked Rama."Hum? What?" he casually smiled and opened the seat belt. I know... maybe it's not Rama's first time here, so it feels like he's used to it, it's a different story with me. This is the first time and I immediately got goosebumps."This house is like a haunted factory!""How can it be a haunted factory! It's a normal house!""That's ... all those partitions and all those machines ... and it looks abandoned, all parts of the house have glass that is not curtained ... and all the rooms are dimly lit, it seems abandoned and it's a horror house." I analyzed the house, yes indeed in my eyes that was the condition, from the front there were three rooms with each room having wide windows and no curtains, then inside there seemed to be machines and piles of goods. In my mind, it somehow seemed like a horror fact
Staying in a hotel with Rama, and why is this scripted? Why is there also only one hotel and one room available? Yes, blame it on the fact that this is a remote area, and even though it can be accessed by the highway, there are still not many residents in this area, Rama said... thankfully we can find a hotel. We were forced to sleep here, he said it would be unproductive if we went back to the city and the next morning to this place again.Inside the hotel, we discussed the author who according to Rama is one of the legendary authors of the company."What are the criteria that made you call him legendary?" I asked curiously."Hum..." he looked up at the roof, we were in the same bed and on each other's side. "One, he's so total, he can make his books feel like another world, he writes thrillers and can bring every scene to life, like when you read his work you're swept away. He can make us sympathize with his characters, make us antipathize, make us hate, and make us smile a little w
Preparing to go to John Agassi's house, I don't know why I'm so cranky myself... I feel uncomfortable. I also heard Rama asking for permission from work today... because we both couldn't come to work, explaining where we are and for what purpose. He promised to take me home today and tomorrow we can come to work as usual.I hope so... my heart feels like it's about to explode, like a mountain in the process of releasing its lava. It's pouring out."Li... when he asks, say you're my future wife... oh no! Just say you're already my fiancé. Getting married next month? Oh, no! Just say you're engaged and pregnant with my child." Rama said in a hurry, we were still wearing the same clothes as yesterday and just as dirty.I, who heard that idea, was shocked...why did he say that?"What does that mean?""Just in case! You said you're afraid of Mr. John, so just to be on the safe side, tell him you're pregnant with my child and that we're getting married next month. He doesn't like girls who
We went back to the office and I felt very peaceful, it felt like working overtime for days in the office was much better than if I had to meet with that horror-thriller author, I don't need to go to the office... because Rama said I've been working all day with him, but I want to check the pantry, at the same time I want to make coffee... right the office pantry, you can get free coffee. Ehhe... this is honestly because I need coffee oh ya! Not because I want to check anything else!So earlier Rama dropped me off in front of the office building and he went home ... yes, I also live in a room near the parking lot ... yes, I did come home by definition here, this is just a quick stop to make coffee. I also didn't make any turns, went straight to the pantry, and made coffee... I sat down and stirred my cup. Although I wondered if Mr. Harold had stopped to eat or at least drink, he could be like an impromptu statue in front of the computer, forgetting that he was human.Along the way, I
Harold held me until downstairs... all along the hallway and as we descended the stairs, several coworkers glared in surprise and did not dare to say hello... they seemed to pretend not to see. I tried to let go of my hand, but he squeezed it tighter... until we walked in front of the highway in front of the building, I don't know where he planned to eat... Why did he drive so far?"Where are this going? You can let go of my hand!" I shouted in annoyance."I can't! I'm afraid I'll be kidnapped!""I'm a kid!" I snapped again, while my legs were already getting tired. The concept of walking is different for tall people and short people. A tall person with long legs can take two to three times as many steps as a short person like me, especially if Harold' walking rhythm is so fast that he's like competing with The Falsh...so fast... I automatically have to be faster to keep up with him, even more so! Where are you going to eat, it's the same thing! After eating, if I have to walk this fa
"No, I won't ask you... I'll just hire someone else.""That's good.""Even though you will be involved during the launch. Once everything is launched and following the function, our company status will change from being a regular publisher... manual, old school, to a start-up with several types of services. Our reach will be bigger then...""Oh..."Someone who's a bit old like him actually understands that too."You're starting tomorrow, right?" he asked again in a calm tone.I nodded, now starting to pick up the bread that had been calling me to nibble on it, it tasted yummy, yes it was similar to a burger."Then you're resting after this...""Hem..."I turned to him, Mr. Harold had not eaten any of his food by now, err, it was all gone! Except for the bread which was just a few pieces in the middle of the table. He was now watching me."Back in high school, I knew I made a mistake....not because I kissed you and I thought it was a mistake. No... I know you were very young, still fee
"I don't know... she said she'd pick me up.""Okay... I'll drive!"Hehehe... I also realized that Zetta was very emotionally unstable. Okay see you Rama...""Oh yes Li! Zetta doesn't need to know... it's just between us... and after the ring is on your finger.. just be casual with me...""Eh? What should I call you then? Om?" I asked teasingly."It's okay... You can call me babe!""Ba-be?" I repeated. "Ih... why babe anyway! Babe.. honey! Or should I call you to love? Sweetheart? My boo? Sugar? Honey? My love? Try it later while you think about what to call it. Okay?" I asked too eagerly. I could imagine Rama's face, which must be smiling like crazy.I chuckled."I've figured out what to call Rama...""Hem... what? What the hell!""Oi!" I immediately disconnected the call and burst into laughter, surely Rama was swearing at home! What the...I was able to sleep for a few hours, to unwind and relieve my stress after talking to my former teacher. I got a text from Zetta that she and
I let go of the hug, "Yeah not like that either... let's go, don't look back! Let's go!" I ordered and he immediately took my hand to walk towards Zetta who was already holding a drink holder that could be filled with four plastic drink cups, but now it only contained three, so I she got one for me too!"What kind of drama is this, holding hands together? Are you guys really engaged?" asked Zetta suspiciously as she looked at our intertwined hands."Eng... will you be able to wait and I'll explain it in the car?" I snapped. Fortunately, Rama didn't say much and opened the door for me. Zetta I stood questioningly ... and finally got into the car in the front passenger seat, while I was in the back ... and Rama drove the car.We all got into the car and Rama started his journey. About five minutes into the drive, I explained what happened."That's crazy! He's so shameless! I mean, he's old!" Zetta protested. I silently agreed with her. Mr. Harold is old, how old is he? 35? Could it be m
Yep... that's funny! Because there was one pair of eyes watching me. I'm from the side because I'm stepping forward, but I stop in the middle of the road. Like a child's toy that becomes a statue, you know? Who was looking at me? No doubt, it was Mr. Harold... he was grinning and scratching his chin! I think it's hard for him to be happy."Yes just in case! That's why I emphasize here, no one is free to order my men without any information or coordination with me, whatever it is, except for emergency matters. The meaning of emergency is related to life and death!" said Rama sternly, they were talking about anyone who asked me to do their chores and Rama forbid them to do so again.I swear, he's super cranky! I think it's because he's forced to hold the typo-studded author, that's why he's super annoying and sensitive today. "Yes, Rama ... don't be so sensational. You two, you can leave the room!"Mrs. Claudia said, and it felt like we could breathe again, I pushed my friend out quick
Rama asked us all to get into the car, then he drove the car fast, but not in the way it should be. This wasn't the office... he was going to the out-of-town route."Where is this going anyway? You took the wrong turn!" I protested."Yes, we're going to the mall... I want to buy you another engagement ring! The last one was broken."Dang! He really made that announcement! He's not pretending! He even made a statement that the ring was from him, in front of Dominic, who was the source of all the gossip in the office! Death to me!"What! So the guy who gave the ring was Rama after all! Ooh... so this has been in the planning for a long time... what a boss! I've been thinking for a long time, but unfortunately, the ring melted, boss! Is it better to just give Lili a ring with plastic? One with plastic elements, or rubber! I don't think rubber conducts heat!"Tsk... I just chuckled to myself, so Dominic still thinks that I bought the ring just for the sake of pretending?"Dom! Why can't
After lunch, Rama and Dominic cleaned up their bags, I who didn't know there was a meeting, or any business could only gape. I didn't remember there was a meeting, because if there was a meeting I would have been notified, right? Photocopying and so on, but not this!"Come on Lili!" invited Rama."Eh?" I could only look up in surprise."What are you doing? Where are you going?""I didn't tell you? I want to meet that nasty author! It's already been leaked to the public that she wants to publish here, and there are already many who want to PO try! So we... oh sorry, Rama couldn't help but obey her wishes, meeting at the cafe to discuss the T&C contract and its implementation details."I scratched my head, not connecting with what he was saying."What does this...mean? How?"Dominic was willing to sit down first to explain what happened to me, "So Miss Lili... this cat...""Don't use abbreviations! Her name is car?""Catherine! Just call her cat... okay, so she submitted a script to us
"Hemph... what's wrong if he's stalking you? Scared? You've already been kissed ... hehehe ..." Zetta teased unfriendly. Even though she's Rama's sister who is my fiancé, how could she say that?"Don't add to the turmoil in my heart! Enough!" I scolded and she laughed."I'm just telling the facts... the facts are so. After all, he won't harm you, even if he wants to harm you, he should have done it a long time ago? Why does he want to try now? So what I'm saying is that you don't have to think about whether he follows you or not. I don't even think about it.""Easy for you to say..." I complained."It's like that everywhere babe..."I felt better until the next morning when I decided to go to work. I asked Rama to take me to the office, not to his office anyway... to my mess, because my work clothes were all there, right?"Let's just go anyway! What's wrong with borrowing Zetta's clothes?" asked Rama, "The problem is that her clothes are all tight on me...""Double the cardi. So I do
"Lili... take a shower first, then we go for a walk." Zetta invited, and I nodded. After all, she's the one who owns the house, she's the one who has the money to go to the cafe.Inside the room I looked for Zetta's clothes that I could wear, it's not a new story that I wore her clothes... we stay with each other too often, and things like this are normal. I didn't need permission either... she already guessed later. I didn't bring anything with me because of her too, so I went straight to his house.I took a clean underwear, then the biggest pair of jeans and then the loosest blouse I could find. Zetta tends to be thinner than me, and she likes to wear clothes that fit her body... so if I wear clothes that fit her, my address is already like wearing a condom! The shirt clings to the body. Not funny at all!The baggy jeans, once worn, actually fit my body, a little tight in the thighs and buttocks, fortunately the blouse could cover those thighs and buttocks, because it was quite long
I'm the one who's thinking more and more, and it's hard to sleep. For people who have been exposed to electricity, aka high-voltage electric shock until they are taken to the hospital, my body is all crumpled and the intention is to sleep early ... and now it's two o'clock in the morning, I'm still awake. I can't sleep anymore, imagine the torment! This is all because Zetta is like pouring gasoline into the fire of chaos in my heart, so I'm already in there! What a mess! Fire on chaos. I know... that's too much. But you got the point right?Maybe I can only sleep around half past five? So bad! Luckily I told Zetta that it was dawn and I hadn't slept yet, so I gave her notice! Don't wake me up... at all costs! She nodded in understanding and went to the bathroom.I only woke up at nine in the morning, so even though I was forced to sleep again... that was it! I was still sore, my sleepiness had completely disappeared! So I just couldn't sleep anymore.Waking up and going out, I found t
I immediately turned around and chased Zetta.What the hell!Zetta was still telling me how she seemed to be madly in love with Jude."I've never fallen this deeply for a guy, and he's the closest thing to my ideal type! I've kept my heart, I've endured it when I found out he was married, and once he got divorced... it's already blossomed so much, how could I deflate it again? My heart will suffer later.""Uh, Zetta..." I couldn't take it anymore.We were still walking towards Zetta's house and now I was beside her, not daring to look back anymore."I want to ask... you don't have to look back but yes! You don't have to make a big scene, let alone scream! Watch out!" I threatened, I knew Zetta, I was afraid she would go overboard with all her craziness."Don't tell me it's a devil!? Is it white?!" she swore."No... ish... what the hell!""What the hell! I'm afraid it's..." she was indeed walking faster than before."I saw a guy who looked like Mr. Harold at the food vendors! That's cr
Maybe because this is not the first time I've slept on Zetta's bed which is of course bigger, softer, and smells better than my mattress either at work or at home ... anyway it feels like sleeping in the clouds ... I'm really tired. Maybe I woke up before sunset. Yes, it's not allowed to sleep like this, but what else can I do... my body is already completely exhausted. It's like I'm going to sleep right after .. I'll just sleep... I don't care. I'm already yawning from earlier... but my best friend has already started babbling. I intended to just go to sleep, just leave her sleeping ... how come I was so surprised by her story that I gaped in shock. What the... absurd really! "Crazy! That's so weird!" I said."I said what the hell! That's why I want to talk to you. Is it true that Jude's ex came back and asked for a reconciliation? It's weird, she was the one who cheated on him and now she's asking him back! That's crazy! I told Jude to flatly refuse but he's not comfortable with t
"Lili... Gosh Li, lucky you're okay Li, thank God.. you're safe now, okay.. don't be afraid anymore. Hem..." With his manly voice he said that with his panic tone. He squeezed my hand gently with that straight look. I know I'm okay now, the whole incident seemed to happen very fast... and horrible, if I flashback, it feels like death has knocked me, but maybe it's not my time yet, it's not time for my spirit to leave my body? That's why someone saved me, out of the people at the office, out of everyone in the office... the question is... why Mr. Harold?"I felt like it was hard to leave you there... I got to my room and then came back, opened the door and found you screaming in distress.... I was in shock too Li! Fortunately, my brain is still working. Thank God..." he said again with a tighter hand squeeze.That's right, maybe this is his destiny. Maybe he was sent to be my savior today, I can't imagine without him.Then I felt that my chest felt full, tight... shaking too. I didn't
