ARINDAS

Anxiety

A new pile of documents halfway checked. Not to mention having to check incoming emails. The work is endless.

In fact, tomorrow has to arrive in Jogja at ten in the morning.

Ricko stretched the joints in his body so that the soreness that began to spread a little reduced. From morning until three in the afternoon, he had not yet moved from his chair. So, it is only natural that his body feels stiff.

“Ah, completely draining of time, energy, and mind. How to become CEO? Maybe I'm dead tired. It is fitting that I am not directly placed in that position. It has a lot to learn from below.”

The sleepiness also hit. Ricko got up from his seat and walked towards the pantry to make coffee. But, just wanted to get in. Suddenly, he stopped his steps when Arinda's name was called.

Trying to steal hear what they're talking about. The ears are sharpened to make it sound clear.

“One month will not see Arinda. So, males ngantor, yes.”

“A month of the prettiest woman's clay fast. We guys as big fans Arinda feel lonely and sad.”

“Padahan, Arinda smiles never, yes. But, can make the guys like us gini lose so much.”

“Kalo expensive woman reasonable, anyway, her smile is hard. Let's not be tempted by the same guys as your two kayak models. That Arinda is going to be pretty and of good quality. It works great, pinter too. I really want a girl to be him. Almost perfect!”

“Thank you Mr. Ricko, could have Arinda's heart. The diamond woman is so hard sure time conquering her. Amazingly our boss it can make him bend the knee.”

“Kalo I said, they are both lucky! One is beautiful ..the other is handsome, where is tajir. If you like Mr. Ricko must also dare in the heart of the doang. The boss's son! Different if you have a crush on Arinda, many are in blatant.”

“Bener, tuh! Almost every single guy in this building has a crush on Arinda. Victims are denied no need to be asked again. So much! Uh, it's the same with Mr. Ricko. Very sorry I.”

“They do fit, anyway. Equally cold as ice.”

“Eh, usually cool so, faithful types. I know, they were once a school. Maybe you were dating too. So, now it's like old love belom kelar.”

“Can be!”

“Kebayang not, anyway, they if dating kayak how? Two cold people meet. On diem or ..”.

“Hus! They broke up there and went back to work. Not that women .. not that men are also in gossip. Later the new boss knows the taste. Fired you!”

“Not gossip Mr. Yadi. But, that's a fact. Arinda and Mr. Ricko are both compatible couples. Fit!”

“Ya, already. Come on, hurry on out! You're done with the coffee, right?”

Two women and two men came out of the pantry with a cup of coffee in their hands. Ricko also edges behind the wall so as not to be caught eavesdropping.

After making sure everything was gone, Ricko got into the pantry.

Mr. Yadi was surprised! The office boy looked nervous. Then, guessing inwardly whether his boss heard the chat earlier.

“P-pack Ri-ricko ...”

“Can make me a thick black coffee. A little sugar only.”

“Bi-can, Sir. I made it intermittently.”

Yadi made the thick coffee with a tremble. Afraid of his letter of dismissal and the employees who had been gossiping about the boss came out.

He did not gossip ria. But, being in the same room with the gossipers is afraid to be called a part.

After all, Ricko is one of the owners of this large company. And, everyone knew enough of his bad habits to be very temperamental. It's never been heard to fire someone. But, being vigilant seems very necessary Yadi. Who knows if he will be the first to be fired.

“What's your name?” ricko asked as usual, cold-pitched.

Oh ciloko! Really want to be fired by Mr. Ricko. What will the wife and child eat at home. Yes, Allah Gusti. Fate of gini-gini is great! Where else to go to work. Yadi sat down while putting the cup with trembling hands on the table right in front of his boss.

After putting the coffee. Yadi's reflexes kneeled at Ricko's feet begging for forgiveness!

“Maap, Mr. Ricko. Forgive me! Please don't fire me. I have four small children who still need to be fed, snack to the neighboring stalls, sometimes to alpahmarat, quota for maen epbehh, school, and more.”

Ricko frowned in wonder. “Build, Sir. Sit!” her word glares.

“So what I asked?”

“My name, Mr. Ricko.”

“You didn't answer me?!”

The voice was indeed slow, but it was very suppressive and piercing. Yadi was trembling. His neck went back to being relaxed. So scared, the pulse stopped for a moment.

“Ya-ya-ya-di, P-pak.”

A sharp look was put on Ricko. Then, the man came out of the pantry with a cup of coffee.

“Loh, Mr Ricko, come out. This isn't getting fired? Thank goodness I can still find money. Kapoklah! Later if you gossip again, I will just throw it out!”

An hour later

The words of some employees in the pantry, very disturbing Ricko's mind. It had been an hour in front of his desk with unfinished work, but he was silent with his chin up.

Ricko POV's

Beauitiful? Yes, I admit the girl now has an amazing beauty! No wonder so many men admire.

But, the name of expensive women and diamond women. So distracting! I don't know, has the girl changed?

And ....

Sure enough Arinda said yesterday. His charm is hard to resist for men. Yeah, you're charming.

Then, where's the rumor that Arinda and I are dating? How strange! Whatever!

But ....

How will my fate be in Jogja later. One month should be together. May the demons be caught off guard by their obligations to disturb humans. So, nothing will happen between us.

And, thou Rahardian! What an amazing parent! Does my own papa want this handsome boy impregnating people's children?! Bujang and girl should stay one roof? Just imagine what will happen?!

Ah, while there, I really should stay away from her. Dangerous if you have to be close to Arinda.

Although yesterday I gave an ultimatum, but the girl was challenging. In fact, he threatened! I'm just afraid he'll make his threat real.

The flashback

“You should care. Because, maybe in Yogyakarta later I will desperately seduce you. Listen, Honey! No man can resist my charm. I'll get you. Whatever the way! So, get ready, Ricko Bagaskara!”

Flashback off

I'm a normal guy anyway! Since our first meeting after so many years. The girl's body gesture and speech always gave her a seductive accent. Her lips, too, a few days ago, I felt them again. Chewy, soft, sweet, addictive and ....

No. .. no .. no!

Damnit damnit! I became a fantasy that I was. Just get frustrated!

Watch out, yeah, Pap! If until I really get out of control so khilaf! You are the first person I will take responsibility for opa. The reason, surely I will be directly scribbled on the list of Narendra Family names. Of course disrespectfully!

Uh! Irritating!

Arinda, I hope you don't do things that will make my blood flow heat up. Then, it makes me crazy to touch you.

Hopefully, neither you nor I will remain within the sanity corridor. So, nothing to worry about will happen.

I think I need to fortify myself in order to be strong against the temptation of a beautiful woman like you. I'll think about it later.

Okay, Ricko! Now, it was better to quickly finish this endless work. It's exhausting!
