A World Without Seams

31

The cooperation contract that was done was completed and it was time to head office. Rachel drives an office car thankfully she can drive, making it easy to travel. He has to think about some of his income to buy a vehicle.

Arriving at the headquarters he hurriedly entered and hit someone who was also in a hurry.

"Aww....! Wander-lust dong!"

"You're the one who should've seen, I got in this door first!" Rachel instantly fell silent to see a familiar in a courier uniform pull off her dirty clothes. He lifted his face and angrily grabbed the package that had fallen not far from Rachel's feet.

"Next time be careful!" he said cynically and went into the office lobby.

"Wait on! You are! You're Erik, right?" rachel asked pulling the elbow of the man.

"Ck! No!" he walked back to the lobby and asked the owner of the package.

"In a moment, we call," said the receptionist.

"Geek! You're Erik, right?" ask Rachel.

"Ck! Wasn't it! you really can't see? You hit me, now you say I'm Erik!" he's still angry.

"But you look like him, are you intentionally disguised? and change your hair color?" ask Rachel.

"Whisper!"

"God! I'm sure you're Erik! we just met last night!"

"You're drunk in broad daylight, miss!"

"But... "

"Mr Rachel, please. I've been waiting for you inside" said the receptionist. Rachel nodded then glanced towards the figure that resembled Erik. The man was cute and like an unknown person.

Rachel looked at the man for a while and then entered the elevator. After talking and talking for a while, Rachel went home. When we got to the courier lobby, it was gone.

"Of course, he's a courier. It must've been gone from there," murmured Rachel. He crossed the office to the parking lot. He immediately returned to his office.

Rachel returned to the office and relaxed for a moment before making a little report before heading home. It feels saturated, plus Cecil's attitude is a bit stiff when meeting Rachel. Rachel also felt stiff but tried to be careless after all she did not feel wrong.

"Uhmmm... Hel, called Mr. Andre," said Cecil that afternoon who inevitably had to deliver the message to Rachel.

"Thanks," Rachel replied without seeing Cecil. Not that he did not appreciate, but the report that stayed a little more finished chasing the clock home office made him unable to take his eyes off the computer screen in front of him. Even when Cecil came back to his desk he just nodded.

After completion, he kept the report and then moved to Andre's room which was located next to Andini's room. Rachel knocked on the door and entered after being arrested.

"What's up, Andre?" ask Rachel.

"I want you to be able to do comic illustrations?" tanyakanya.

"No, why?"

"There's an offer, who knows you want,"

"It's best to go to the illustrator section,"

"But you can make comics, too,"

"Can't, sir!" rachel replied then quietly as a piece of paper fell before her.

"That?" asked Andre leaning back in his chair while folding his hands.

"Where did you get this?" rachel asked to get the paper. Jim's silhouette was smiling as if on a camera while propping up his chin.

"You don't need to know,"

"Where from? I don't like anyone unpacking my personal belongings," Rachel felt annoyed.

"Lied!"

"Make what? There's no point in me lying. I'm just interested in your pencil strokes. I thought you had an interest in the comics team,"

"No, just one part," Rachel refused.

"Okay, I'm not pushy but if you're interested I tell the person in charge,"

"Thank you, but my answer is still no. I'm sorry, excuse me," Rachel immediately exited the room and returned to her desk with a gloomy face.

Before long he followed the others packing up the table, turning off the computer preparing to go home. He saw Cecil rush home picked up by Bram with his motorbike. Rachel took a breath. She feels innocent but it's as if Cecil and Bram are avoiding her. I don't know what the cause is.

Rachel immediately got into the online taxi of her order and went home. He ignored calls from Andre on his phone. He wanted to be alone first.

Arriving in front of the house there was Tania who was sitting while playing her phone.

"Tania? been long?" greet Rachel.

"Oh. hi. No, just now. Just home?"

"Yes, I'm sorry you waited for Bram?" ask Rachel. The girl was silent and a little moody.

"I... Yeah anyway. I haven't seen Bram in a long time. Communication is not like it before. That's why I'm here, who knows Bram is here or is sick. I brought Bram's favorite fruit, "he pointed to the fruit basket beside him. Rachel smiled, feeling unwell at Tania's kindness. Meanwhile, Bram and Cecil stab him in the back.

"Please go ahead, wait inside. I'll take a shower for a second,"

"okay!"

They go inside and Rachel gives Tania a soft drink and she takes a shower. After the shower, she sat down with Tania.

The girl seemed to be having a lot of thoughts. He recounts how his current relationship with Bram is. The more do not know the direction and purpose even the less communication. When invited to meet Bram had a thousand reasons to refuse.

"Are you really still hoping for Bram?" ask Rachel.

"That's it, which I obviously miss now. Want to meet. How about I think again,"

"What if he asks to break up?" ask Rachel.

"Is he close to another girl again?" tanya Tania with a sad face.

"Uhm.. later you ask with the person directly yes," replied Rachel.

They chatted until the sound of the motor in the yard made them look in unison. Bram was piggybacking on Cecil and Cecil was hugging affectionately. They fell silent as they saw Tania standing up to greet Bram with a forced smile.

"It's been a while?" bram asked while putting the helmet on the table.

"Lumayan, where are you from?" ask while trying to smile.

"I'm from the dress shop, uhm. Sit down!" said Bram.

Cecil walked towards them and smiled towards Tania who was replied with a nod by the girl. What an incredible mask.

They sat together and Rachel quickly pulled Cecil's hand inside when she saw that Cecil also wanted to sit down.

"What's wrong?" cecil asked as he removed his hand from Rachel's grip.

"Let them both first,"

"But right... "

"Why?"

"I... "

"You and Bram are dating? Let them finish their business first. After all, they were dating earlier than you," Rachel explained by slightly emphasizing her voice. Cecil looked down and went into his room. Rachel sighed and went into her room as well. He let Cecil think and know his current position.
