For the next few parts contain flashback stories of their past.

Happy reading & ''Double.

Flashback.

Renate POV.

Stretch my body to reduce a little fatigue. It's been hours struggling with various financial statement papers that make me a little dizzy.

The clock shows at 12:23 and I'm sitting in this room alone. Lunch time passed a few minutes ago. Internal audit will be carried out in the next 2 days to increase the volume of my work.

My name is Renata Oktalia. I'm 23 years old. I have been working as an accounting staff for 2 years at this company. I am the only child of a simple family. My father worked as a private laborer and my mother was just an ordinary housewife. But I'm happy because I grew up in a loving family.

I have set foot in the capital for 2 years. Trying to earn sustenance, armed with a bachelor's degree.

"It's terrible to ninggalin" I murmured

I opened my phone and sent a message in my office group.

Group "Cecan bingit 💋"

Renata : ooii y'all where you can stay 😭

Debby: we eat meatballs in a normal place anyways long time.

Sarah: Here Ren we buy kok bahahahahaha.

Renata : By ogah payin. Not long time ?. Mau nyulus neh.

Missing: Here we wait.

Renata : okay blowjob ⁇ ️️.

I'm breaking my work desk. Picking up my wallet, cell phone, I'm getting my hair straight and rubbing a little lip tint on my lips. Could be on the road to meet a handsome guy, right ?.

I press the 1st button on the elevator to take myself to the first floor. When the elevator door opens, the office lobby looks a little slow, surely because every employee is enjoying their lunch.

There is a coffee shop that is quite famous on this 1st floor. Coincidentally my place of work is in the Jl area. Sudirman is famous as an office area. Like his glass of drink can re-charge energy.

Step foot into the booking table.

"Matcha latte 1" I said with a man next to me.

Spontaneously my head turned towards the voice. Standing a man next to me with a towering height, a handsome face and a dark-colored suit perfectly wrapped around his body.

The man smiled at me, for a while I was fascinated by the beautiful scenery God had bestowed on me at this moment. It dawned when the waitress in front of me asked.

"So the order is matcha latte 2 ?" Ask the waiter to us.

"Yes." Yeah." The man next to me answered quickly so I was late for a protest.

"Take away or drink here ?" 

"Drink here" answered me and the man next to me. God should take away (take it home) why so drink here I regret it in my heart. A lot of work makes me less concentrated.

"OK awaited yes brother," said the waitress and left us.

I just kept looking down at the end of my foot.

Shortly the order arrived.

"All so Rp.65,000," said the waiter.

I immediately opened the wallet, but the man next to me was quicker to take out a hundred thousand bills and hand them over to the waitress.

"Thank you" said the man next to me after he received 2 matcha latte drinks ordered and change.

Then he handed me a cup of matcha latte and said "Sama-sama." As if I was thanking him.

"Next your part yes." Blinking one of his eyes at me.

"So where are we sitting ?" Ask her.

"Huh ?" I gasp at his question.

"We should order take away, right ?" "But it looks like we both want to drink together" he said.

"Who would drink with you" I said, and I was sure my face was red.

The man smiled at my response. Then his eyes went around looking at the empty seat.

"It was in an empty corner."

"Corn." Bring along.

Like a buffalo shaken by his nose I walked to follow this man willingly.

And here we sit together.

"I'm Fabian, Fabian Nugraha" he said as he reached out to me to shake hands.

"Renata," my steam and grabbed his hand.

Warm and firm handshake. Again I was fascinated.

Fabian's a very nice guy. Supel and smart even though we met for the first time but there is no awkward when talking as if we have known each other for a long time.

Time shows at 13:25 and I have to be back soon. It's unbelievable that Fabian and I spent nearly 1 hour together.

"I have to get back to the office" I told Fabian.

"Yes me too."

"May I have your number Renata?"

"Remember you still owe me 1 drink of latte." Fabian teases.

Then Fabian handed me his phone to get me to put in my number.

I grabbed that phone and I plugged my number. I thought Fabian would call me right away to tell me his number but he didn't.

It was like a fool I was waiting for him. I said wrong and Fabian just smiled.

Arriving in my room.

"Oh my goodness, where are you?" Ask Sarah and Miss.

"Let's meet a handsome guy."

"It's my brother kang cilor." Debby chiming.

"We're waiting for the moss amp."

"Hahahaha sorry, it was a walk to meet a friend," I said with a smiley face happily considering the time I spent with Fabian.

***

Until the night there were no messages or calls from Fabian. Disappointed ? I don't know why I feel disappointed. Maybe because I was hoping. For a man like Fabian, there must be a lot of women in line, I thought.

I gave up not checking my phone anymore. Lying down and covering my face with a pillow I cursed myself. Stupid stupid fool..

Not long ago incoming messages on my phone

0812107xxx

Renata's night, it's me Fabian.

Remember it ? The latte guy :)

Save my number.

Remember you still have a debt of one latte drink to drink together :)

Good night. sleep tight.

I swear to God I screamed happy. Like a kid getting candy I dance with a cell phone in hand.

Renata: Ok Fabian :)

And the message was sent without any reply. At least I can sleep well tonight.

***

Time passed and the audit day came. For two days there was no message from Fabian, and I didn't have the courage to send a message first. It's not comfortable.

this morning everyone was busy in my room preparing for the audit and was surprised when someone called me because there was a go food delivery.

"Lo belom breakfast?"

"Morning pesen go food everything." Miss asked me.

"No, it's wrong people".

"I'll check first".

A person with a green jacket gives a plastic bag containing 1 cup of warm drink

"With Renata Oktalia's mother?"

"Yes, I'm sir but I think you're wrong."

"I didn't order anything."

The man who delivered the order again checked the app on his phone to make sure.

"Hmmm, but this is the goal right here ma'am try to check again" he said

I checked that there was a small card there.

Hope the audit goes well.

I'm sure you can.

Spirit :)

X.o.x.o

Ps: you owe 2 lattes to drink together now:)

And today I went through with a smile.

TBC.
