CITY SITE: ALPHA & OMEGA

Episode 7's

The first rule of socializing in an era full of uncertainty like today is forbidden to bring feelings aka BAPER. Alfa knew that, but could not escape from it. How many times has he brought his feelings to work?

Not counting anymore. It was all because of one person he had known for a long time.

Omega Dianblue.

Alfa remembers when she first saw Omega coming to her house with Zeta, the girl was still cute and cute. Compared to his sister, Omega is more quiet. It might make the two can still stay close even until now—lama after finishing high school.

Without seeing his eyes, people will know the Omega of Indonesian people. Her skin is typical of Javanese women, bright yellow. His body is not too high. Proportional is the way Alpha describes the ratio of Omega height and weight. Her hair was long black and always shaved. After shampooing, she would definitely wrap her hair in a towel. Alfa knew the habit because Omega used to stay at her parents' house with Zeta of course.

A few months ago they met again after a long time without seeing each other. Omega, in the memory of Alfa who usually wears a gray white uniform or casual clothes typical of young people, suddenly presented in a black span skirt and a blue shirt that makes the body fit. The nuances that have appeared since then are no longer Omega the little sister. Somehow the Alpha seems to be realized that Omega is not a teenager anymore.

God fucking.

Alfa cursed her mind.

Since their business meeting for the first time that day, Alfa can no longer remember Omega Dianbiru as a friend of Zeta High School. Everything suddenly changed. Alfa realized that life was going on and the environment was changing. For example even Zeta, her sister was already married before her. Maybe soon Omega will also follow Zeta married.

God fucking.

Alfa cursed again his way of thinking.

It's not that I'm not willing to think Mega will marry her boyfriend, but Alfa just thinks that the time is still not right. Alfa can let Zeta get married first because she saw for herself how Zeta and Leo have been head over heels for each other. While Mega?

He can remember how Omega cried in his car when Barry announced to one world over the radio that he was still single. Which jerk would do that to Omega? At that time it felt like Alfa wanted to immediately find Barry and give his hard fist directly on the man's head so that he realized the woman as well as what he had hurt.

If Alfa is in Barry's position, Alfa will announce proudly to anyone she encounters that Omega is her lover.

If. Only if.

There is no harm in wondering.

If Alfa were in Barry's position, Alfa would love Omega with all her heart and joyfully show that love so that everyone would feel the happiness she felt.

IF Alfa is in Barry's position, Alfa wants no one to make Omega cry. Including himself. Alpha will always take care not to make Omega cry.

IF Alfa is in Barry's position, Alfa wants to always be the reason for every Omega smile and laugh. Because Omega smiles and laughter are rare things that once you see them, you will feel that the angel sent down from the heaven is indeed there.

IF Alfa is in Barry's position, Alfa will make sure that Omega's blue eyeballs will always be bright and staring at him endlessly. Omega's blue eyes are the innermost recesses of all the Omega's insides.

Shits. All of that is just imagining. Alfa felt she was simply reflecting her desire about a woman into Omega. But, was there another woman he would treat like that other than Omega? Alfa's fur shuddered in horror at the thought. The answer that came to his brain was only one. There aren't.

Early in the morning and he was already baper. Maybe this is a sign that he is actually just hungry to not be able to think clearly. Seeing the clock still showing at eleven, Alfa decided to just go out for food. He does prefer brunch because the lunch time is usually used to check the work of his subordinates and also to get ready before the meeting that will be held after lunch.

Alfa got into the elevator and hit the B1 button, where she parked her car. The elevator quickly went down and stopped on the eighth floor, the financial section. Alfa was only alone in the elevator so she helped the person who was about to enter by making sure the elevator door opening button was still on. Once the person had entered, Alfa left her concentration off the elevator button.

Alfa could see high heels tracking the floor. Alfa should not be surprised because when entering earlier, the person scented the original like a mixture of shampoo, soap, and fresh water. So typical.

“Mas Alpha?” The man said hello to Alfa, making the man take his eyes off the woman's shoes. Alfa jumped to hear the sound.

“Mega! What else is here?” Alfa looked in amazement at Omega who today is still as it was days ago, always tying her hair back. Batik dress with shift dress pieces made from limp combined with black leggings make Omega look very fresh.

Omega smiled towards Alfa as if to deliberately spread her charm which she rarely let others know. “Against checking accounts, Mas. Started to enter the worksheet. I think it will reach malem barongkarin archives. So want to start buying coffee doping for children. Where is Alfa going?”

“Mau brunch. Laper, here. Have you had breakfast yet?” Omega shakes. Alfa knew this was a good opportunity for her. When again?

“Yes eat first, yuk, temenin Mas. You at that time the promise to buy sushi has not been delivered, right?”

“Emang hard to talk to Mr. Boss. Like this no more men work, can not be as good as office permission just to eat.” Omega and his spicy comments came out again. Things that can always make Alfa amazed since long ago.

Alfa grimaces, “Yee, not so times. This is Mas take brunch hour because later fitting lunch, Mas still work. Let the other moment on the break, Mas mah tancap gas continue to make work.”

Here goes! This attitude that the last few months made Alfa could not bear to be unhappy alone. Hearing Omega directly think about her health makes Alfa can not stop happy.

“So much attention, Mega. I'm thinking of Mas.” Alpha cannot bear not to tease Omega. Unobstructed by a single hair, Alfa could see the girl's cheeks meet with redness. Ah, it turns out that she was also tempted.

The elevator reached the floor they were on. Omega also parked his car in the basement. Alfa enjoyed a few more steps before they had to part ways. Just remembered the word Alfa parted unwillingly and immediately took action.

“Mas bye, yuk. All roads. Later let Mas go down in front of the office, then Mas find a meal.” This idea vow sounds illogical and surely Omega will reject it. Yes, it is, tired of going out of the office first to Starbucks back to the new office later out again looking for food. Forget Alfa that Jakarta is the level of congestion is beyond common sense.

Omega eyes squint. “Ribet really, Mas. Ngerepotin. Nothing, there is a driver from the office car who can anterin.”

“Nerepotin coke, Mega. Or buy a drive-thru just so as not to bother too. So we're both lucky.” “It's really okay, Mas?” Omega began to weigh.

Alfa immediately nodded with a nodding spirit. Omega could only nod and follow Alfa's footsteps towards the man's blue Wrangler. Alfa opens the door for the new Omega then she enters from the driver's side.

Stupid time with baper. Alfa only knew that she was happy to be useful for Omega despite being a driver. A fool with Omega's girlfriend who might get angry later. Alfa only knew that she wanted to realize

‘LAU-KALAU’ that he thought of earlier even if only in pseudo-shape.

Alpha's overtime tonight. Some investment and investment projects have not been completed. There were also materials for the meeting with investors tomorrow morning that he had not checked.

Actually he was a bit sorry overtime because otherwise he would have been able to drive Omega home today. Well, that's also if Omega doesn't come home to the office with his other friends. Or if Barry doesn't pick up Omega like he used to.

Alpha cannot stand to not contact Omega. So he started writing LINE messages for Omega.

Alfa Bintara: Already home yet? Want to consult about investment accounts with our auditors.

Your reasons are so stale Alfa. Protecting behind the interests of work.

Omega Db: Still in the office, Mas. Know it! Very bad bookkeeping. Pinter don't be for yourself Mas, his subordinates are taught how to.

Alfa smiled to herself reading Omega's answer. He smiled as Omega was still in Golden Greek's office, plus Omega called him smart. What makes Alfa even more happy is that Omega replied to LINE from him even though now he must still struggle with many excel tabs on the laptop.

Alfa Bintara: Still in Golden Greek until what time? Udh at 9. Eat first yuk.

Omega Db: This is smp at 11an mgkn. Is Mas still in the office?

Alfa Bintara: Still this overtime, well up to 11am jg time. Omega Db: Oh yes. Happy overtime, Mas.

Now Alfa frowned confusedly. Omega has not answered his invitation to eat together.

Alfa Bintara: So abis work want to eat with Mas?

Alfa decided to confirm the answer.

Omega Db: Anytime yes, Mas, do not skrg. This Saturday at Zeta's house.

Eating at Zeta's? Well, that's a different name. Alpha wants to know Omega even more. Omega as Omega personally and not Omega as Zeta's friend. If he eats at Zeta's house where his wish can be realized.

Alfa decides to let Omega's last message be read without reply. His appetite disappeared without a sudden impact. He doesn't like to be ignored by Omega. Is it possible that because Omega does not like to be near it, Omega rejects the invitation? Alfa struggled with a thousand and one reasons of his own making.

He forgot the first rule of socializing in this day and age.

BANNED BAPER.
