“Engh.”
“Truly buffalo..”
The girl on the bed was writhing slowly. His body is a little stiff. He sleeps not so well.
He slowly opened his eyes. His half-opened eyes saw the shadow of a tall person standing in front of him. Is that a ghost…?
Deg
The girl gasped in shock until she sat down and opened her eyes full.
“Gosh. Brother just surprised me. I thought ghost!”
“Ck. You're sleeping like a buffalo. Quickly hurry. Aren't you working?”
“What time is it now?”
“Jam eight.”
“WHAT????”

Pomegranate walks out of Devano apartment with face bent. His boss walked leisurely in front of him towards the parking lot. The pomegranate holds the tip of the simple dress that was given by Devano. He wanted to refuse because his clothes looked expensive. But the man insisted on threatening himself to the point of upsetting him.
“Kak. I'll leave alone!”
“Wah! Really?”
Pomegranate nodded.
“While if you leave with me you will not be punished by Viana.”
“Thanks. But, Sis. I told you already...”.
Pomegranate looked at Devano hesitantly. “It is inappropriate for a boss to leave with a lowly employee like me.” Pomegranate.
Devano sighed slowly. “You're my employee. Then it's up to me. I can do anything.” Devano said arrogantly.
“But, Brother. Anu's…. Yesterday in front of the office many saw us walking together. And they don't seem to like it. Me...”
“Then I will forbid them not to like!”
“Kakak!” The pomegranate looked at Devano with a face of disbelief. “Why is a sister like this to me?!”
Devano stared at Pomegranate sharply to make Pomegranate goosebumps. He lowered his head. Fearful.
“You're my employee. And it's up to me!”
“Can't, Brother. If a brother like this to me, brother should also do it to other employees.” Pomegranate shut up for a moment. “I don't want the image of an ugly brother for hanging out with me.”
After saying that, Pomegranate walked away from Devano's apartment towards a nearby bus stop. Let himself be late. He would think of the reason too late to Viana.
“It was brave of me it turned out..” Devano hissed. His hands clenched tightly. He's very angry. The girl refused attention from him.

Pomegranates sit on a park bench behind his workplace. He hasn't had lunch yet but has been here. It seems he has no appetite. He took a cell phone and dialed someone.
“Halo bu Nisa!” Pomegranate exclaims when the person he calls picks up the phone.
“Nak Pomegranate! How are you doing, son?”
“Good, Mom. Miss Nisa how?”
“All right son! Oh yea! Your house was cleaned yesterday. Sorry, son. I can't be diligent in cleaning your house.”
“It's okay, Mom. Later in the afternoon Pomegranate send money to Miss Nisa yes. Thank you for helping Pomegranate clean the house.”
“Sama-sama son! It's a long time ago, huh?”
“Delima just walked three months here, Mom. Cannot apply for leave. If you can, the pomegranate will go home. Pomegranate will bring souvenirs to bu Nisa and Reva.”
“No need to bother son. Be well there. Watch yourself! Don't fall for something bad. Remember your grandmother's advice.”
“Iya, mom. Once again thank you, Miss Nisa is very good with Pomegranate and grandma. And sorry if we always bother Nisa.” Pomegranate is sad. He always troubling his neighbors next to his house.
“No problem, son. I've considered you my own son. Uh! It was yes. Mom has guests.”
“Iya, mom. Thanks.”
“Close yes.”
TUUTS
Pomegranate put his phone in his pocket. Himself pensive. His boss was visibly angry this morning because he refused his invitation. But why should the boss be angry? Isn't he right? It is inappropriate for a lowly employee to go with his boss to the office. Yesterday many looked strangely at him and his boss.
“Kak, Devano it's so weird.”
“Huft... I have to make him coffee now.”
Pomegranate back into the office. He went to the room where he used to make coffee for his boss. He did it weakly. He was about to meet Devano who this morning looked angry at him. After the coffee he made was finished, he put it on top of nampang along with snack setoples. He walked slowly to his boss's room. After he entered and found Deby who was struggling with a stack of documents.
“Bu, I want to drop off coffee.”
“Ya enter only.” Deby answered without looking at Pomegranate.
CLUTCH
Pomegranate entered the room and saw two men there. The one stood in front of the boss's desk while holding his tablet. And his own boss is sitting on his throne.
“Happy day. I'm dropping off coffee for Mr. Devano.” Pomegranate said softly while looking down. He did not want to look at the two men in front of him.
“Put there. And get out of my room.” The heavy voice he had memorized, sounded cold. Not as usual. Pomegranate flinching. Devano still seems angry.
“TURN THERE!!!” Pomegranates were shocked. He immediately put coffee and snacks on the sofa table with trembling. HE'S BUMPED!
Only this time was he snapped like that. Being yelled at like that made him startled and his heart throbbed.
Is this how we work in the city?
Eyes glazed. Pomegranate realized that he was so weak. She was always loved by her grandmother and neighbors. But Pomegranate realized, this is not his village. It's a big city, and life in a big city must be tougher, right? But Devano……. Yesterday I had never hit him like that. Just at the beginning of work, it's not as hard as it was.
“Happy Enjoyed, Sir. I excuse.” The pomegranate ran out of the room that had a terrible aura. On the corridor wall he leaned his body. Holding his throbbing heart. He closed his eyes, releasing the tears he had been holding back.
“Sick really..” he said softly.
***
“You.. You're yelling at him, Dev? She was until pale so” Wira asked in wonder.
“Not your business.” Devano answered coldly.
“You why? Unusually? Don't you like that girl?”
“Not your business.”
“Haah! I don't know what the problem is between you. But you hurt her, Dev. I saw the girl's eyes glazed over after you snapped at her.”
Devano doesn't seem to care. But in his heart, he regretted that he had yelled at the girl. He was angry and upset. Mixed up because the girl refused attention from him. Devano looked at Wira who was still standing in front of him while holding the tablet. Looks like checking his schedule.
“Ya?”
“Is it wrong for a CEO to go to work together with an ordinary employee?”
“Hmm. Sure oes. There will definitely be hot news later.”
“You mean?”
“Yes. Hot NEWS. It will definitely spread quickly, and the most harmed...” The hero advances his body. “The ordinary employee.” he continued half a whisper. The hero re-enforced his body. Glancing at Devano who looks dreamy. Hero grins.
“Alright! Today's schedule is empty. The meeting is being postponed tomorrow because the CEO of Company L is ill. And they asked to replace the day. Did you give it to him?”
“Ya..” The man replied while daydreaming. Actually he did not listen to the explanation of his assistant earlier.
“Ahsiaaap~~~

“Why are you, Del? Sick? Coconut pucket.”
“No why-why, Nin. It was just the heat in the park. I haven't drank.”
“Oh. Here drink.” Nina thrust out the mineral water she happened to be carrying.
“No need, Nin. That's yours. I'll take it myself.”
“OK. Okay, Del. If it hurts, go to the doctor, okay? I will be temenin. Call aja.”
“Iya. Thanks yes.”
Nina leaves the OG/OB room leaving the dreamy Pomegranate. She feels dizzy.
“It looks like due to overheating..” murmured. He took a glass and poured water from a gallon. Drinks quickly. It was late afternoon and the work was done. Right now he feels weak and his body feels bad. His joints began to feel sore and his head was quite dizzy.
“It looks like overtime panasan. Yes panasan.”.
He decided not to work in Devano's apartment today. He took his phone in his pocket. Type a message to his boss.
To : Mr. Boss
Sorry, Sis. I'm clearance today. I want to rest in the contract.
***
“What the hell is he? How daring? Is he avoiding me?” muttered Devano after reading a message from Pomegranate.
Himself sighed. Devano thought of something.
Was that girl crying?
Is she okay?
Why did the girl not like the form of attention from him all this time?
Is it true if the problem is position?
But even he did not think about that position! Wh-wh-what for?
Devano sighed for the umpteenth time. He admitted wrong. He confessed! He was already yelling at the girl. He shouldn't have hit her! Aye right? He should have understood the girl!
He returned to retrieve files that were still quite piled up. Those damn files are waiting for a beautiful scratch from his hand. Signature.
Devano finished two hours later. He looked at the window of his room. It was evening. And rain.
Has the girl gone home?
The girl today permits not to go to her apartment.
Devano packed a laptop and some unsigned documents. Then out of the room to the parking lot. He got into his luxury car, turned it on and the car walked away from his company.
It's raining pretty hard tonight. Devano slammed the steering wheel to the right. Not the way to his apartment! He wants to hire Pomegranate. Ask why today the girl's permission.
Arriving at the location, Devano parked his car in front of the alley because his car could not enter. He came out and opened his umbrella then walked towards the Pomegranate contract. He opened it and left it in the car, as well as his bag. Arriving there, he saw one of the rented windows was illuminated by lights. It means that the girl has gone home and she is in her room. He looks around. Looks like this contract is all empty and only this girl is the occupant. There are no gates and no fences. He has been here several times, but do not know if only Pomegranate occupies one of the rooms here. While delivering Pomegranate that night, he did not notice. And when he picked her up in the morning he didn't know if her other room was empty.
He walked to the door on the left. Knocking slowly.
There is no answer from within.
Did this girl really avoid him?
Devano knocked on the door in front of him. But the result is the same. No response from the owner. He was impatient and held the doorknob, turned it around and…
“Unlocked. Danger once.”
Devano opened the door for Pomegranate slowly.
His eyes were rounded when he saw Pomegranate curled up on his bed. His body was facing towards the door so Devano saw clearly the state of the girl. Pale. Shiver. And his whole body was soaked in sweat. The girl's eyes closed and her forehead shriveled.
“Gosh!”
Devano immediately opened his shoes and went into a room that was not too big. He headed to the bed where the Pomegranate laid his body. Put his hand on the girl's forehead.
“Gosh it's so hot! You have to go to the doctor!”
“Ka... Sister...” Pomegranate said in a very small voice. Consciously unconscious.
“Be quiet.” Devano saw a cupboard across the bed, by the window. He opened it and looked for something. He found some wide cloth. I don't know what his clear name is he immediately took it and immediately enveloped the girl's body with a cloth that he found.
In haste he took the phone in his pants pocket. Looking for a contact there.
“Lisa, come to the address I sent you. NOW! Bring me some warm water and a little towel!”
***
A woman came out of the Pomegranate's room. Then approached a man waiting on the rented porch.
“He only has a fever. I've changed her clothes. I put the cure on the table. Why don't you change your clothes immediately stupid?!” cerocos the woman.
Lisa's. He is the doctor of the Devano family. He is a doctor trusted by the Devano family for a long time. Devano also considers her as his own sister.
“You crazy? I'm a man, where it's possible to undress a girl!”
“Ck. You're this. Hm.. By the way..” Lisa looked at Devano with a seductive smile. “He who? Just this time I caught you with a girl!”
“Be quiet. You'd better go home, your husband will be waiting for you.”
“Hahaha. Alright-good. Guard him. Have the girl take her medicine regularly. I went.”
After driving Lisa to the front of the alley, Devano returned to the Pomegranate contract, fortunately the rain had subsided so he did not need to wear his umbrella.
Devano picked up a towel on Pomegranate's forehead, dipped it into a basin of warm water then squeezed it out. He put a towel on the girl's forehead. He sat in a chair that was available in Pomegranate's room. He circulated his gaze throughout the Pomegranate's rented room. So this is the boarding room? A contract? He just found out. The contract was narrow. Only fit one single bed, table, chair and closet. And there's a bathroom in that room.
“Kakak.” Pomegranate awakens. “Why come here... Narrow.” he said softly.
“Sleep only. You're feverish. Thankfully I'm here.”
“Sorry yes, sis.”
“For what?”
“No obeying sister. Don't fire me yeah.” The pomegranate looked at Devano with its my eyes. “Don't snap at me. Pain.”
So this girl is sick because of her? Is that so? Or how?
