Days After You's

Chapter 34 - The Original Character of Luna

It was already past the second week since the cloudy weather accompanied by a rainstorm came over the city, I could only look out my window in the office with my face elongated. At this point I have given up hope on the picnic plan and just want to take Stella to dinner at the restaurant course— at least that way I can still make special reservations for a table with a romantic atmosphere in one place fine dining—but in fact the plan still has to be postponed because Stella who even got a cold since two days ago.

Still clearly engraved red face and eyes lack of focus Stella when down the stairs that morning. He spoke with the slur while occasionally pulling his snot. My heart breaks to see him like that.

Not to mention the result of fever and colds that Stella experienced—although the word doctor is not so heavy—dia I forbid to go out anywhere. And that includes not bringing lunch for me until the moment he has completely recovered. The mood of my heart because it—in short—so it's getting worse.

Why...why should this be?

The joy that I felt in lamenting the misfortune of my entire plan still continued when the sound of the door being knocked disturbed my mind.

"Lake in," I said.

Asumsiku who thought it was Rio who I had ordered to buy food from one of the cafeterias on the first floor proved wrong once I saw the foreign woman who stepped in. I frowned for a moment as I tried to remember if I had another appointment with someone else that I had forgotten today before I realized that she was the girl that I had brought.

What's his name—Lusi? Lu...Ah Luna's. I almost forgot about his whereabouts for having handed over all the affairs related to him to Rio. I knew it would make my ears hot enough to know, but that's what I had to do, after all, one of Rio's duties as a secretary as well as my personal assistant is also included in helping to deal with a number of small issues that tend to be not so important.

My eyebrows are linked, especially when he realized he came not with his bare hands but carrying a tray with several bowls and glasses on it.

"Is there anything you need here..?" My toot.

Luna smiled displaying both of her deep cheek niches, "Then in the cafeteria, she said, I was asked by Mr. Rio to bring you a meal because all of a sudden he was called by someone from another department to help something."

A bowl of seafood asparagus soup, salad and warm tea which was not my order was laid out before me. My eyes moved looking at the two menus in wonder.

"I know Mr. Luiz didn't order this but I think it's cloudy this way eating warm soup is much better. Luiz is also quite busy lately right, healthy food will be much better for your body."

Hah..since when did he become my nutritionist? Who is the person out there who would change someone's order just like that without first confirming it like this?

I rubbed my forehead softly, "I understand your good intentions, but please don't change my order just like that, I ordered lasagna and hot chocolate then that's what I also want to eat. Not asparagus soup, fruit salad or tea. And you're not working here to bring me food, so come back to your floor. Let Rio do it."

Although I hope it is enough to make Luna aware of her position. He did not look shaky, instead he took a step forward and lowered his shoulders for a moment while still wearing the same smile since entering, "Sister Luiz I'm sorry, brother Luiz, but I was just trying to follow my mother said to pay attention to you who are always busy and sometimes eat irregularly. Mr. Rio is just listening to your desire to eat this and that but you need someone to set your healthy diet."

"I know, I've got a wife who's gonna do that. Because of that, now I'm telling you not to do this again. No matter what my mother says or not, your boss here is me, so you follow my words. Your job is in the financial section and not this, you certainly don't want the four years of study abroad that you spent just ending up bringing me food, right?"

"I'm the administration brother."

"...Yeah, I mean it. The point is now that you bring all this back and call Rio in" I said final.

Luna let out a sigh of resignation, but before she moved, she took the bowl and the glass, he first flicked his long hair back and pulled the collar part of his shirt aside at a glance to expose his silky white skin that was hidden as he lowered his head before me.

I closed my eyes, "Wear a more polite dress when working and keep your attitude in front of others. I remind you once again, you're here to work. Understood?"

"I understand Brother Luiz, I just reflexed because it was a little hot. Speaking of brother..." I opened my eyes and found Luna smiling broadly at me, "The reason I dared to come here with this food is because I saw that Stella has not been here since two days ago? I was a little worried and thought about following my mother's advice to see you."

Had enough. This girl has crossed the line from interfering in my personal life when she is nobody who has the right to do so. Even Stella at the beginning of the marriage knew the limits she should not cross and tried not to bother me as much as she could. In fact, Stella is more mature than a girl who tries hard to look older than this age.

"Stella is sick. You don't have to come here after this. Come back."

"You can't keep cold to me sister, your mother won't be happy," Luna tilted her head, "And there's no need to pretend in front of me, I know sister's marriage is just a contract. After that, my brother will be with me."

My eyes narrowed and the kindness left of me was gone in one blink, "Are you threatening me with my mother?"

"What fact? The fact that you're a girl who hasn't graduated from school and has been trying to tease her boss? Your nature is so far from your sister and even Stella, you're not classy at all..."

Those words managed to shake Luna's confidence, her calm face slowly turning sour, "Don't compare me to Caryna or your ugly wife! I'm better than both of them, and the most perfect and suitable for you."

"...?" Gee. The change in attitude surprised me.

Luna—alau has a calm and meek appearance outside—it turns out just a delusional woman who is selfish and two-faced. She hallucinated as if the world was just spinning for her, her nature slammed away from her sister Caryna who although to me tends to get along too freely still has class and standards. I'm sure he never showed this side of himself in front of mom. If not, I might like him.

"Get out" I said. If he realized the cold tone of the word, then he was so stone to stay in his position. I'm getting sick of this conversation.

Luna instantly returned her calm and friendly face, she put on a sweet smile, "Sister Luiz, don't be so, I'm sorry—"

I shook my head, "Come out before I cross your name off the list of employees here."

"No. Sister wouldn't dare to do that, sister's mother—"

"My mom has no power here. Come out."

"Ck," Luna who finally understood that her existence was not desirable here then turned to the door with a tray containing all the food she brought in earlier. He muttered something but I didn't care to find out what it was.

After Luna died, Rio entered not long after. His face was sweaty and he looked pale.

"Sir Luiz..."

My forehead shriveled, "What's wrong with you?"

"W-why don't you, sir, just Miss Luna..."

"Hm. Why did you let him drive food for me? He didn't even buy what I ordered."

Rio bit his lower lip and looked at me doubtfully, "So about that sir, Miss Luna said that she did have a personal appointment to meet with you, so when she offered to buy you some food, I'm not resisting...But I told you the details of your order, sir. I didn't know that Miss Luna would order another meal."

My head shook, "Other times if I ask you to do something it means that you also have to finish it. Don't just tell someone else to replace you. Understood?"

"I understand, sir. I'm sorry for the inconvenience, I order you some food now," Rio bowed and turned towards the door.

I flicked my right hand and massaged my nose with my other hand, "Forget it. My appetite is gone. Go back to your desk and finish your other tasks."

Rio nodded, "Alright sir. I understand."

The sound of footsteps drifting away and the closed door of Rio leaving my room followed after that.

Once it's gone, my appetite won't come back in a long time. Watching the change in attitude from Luna was enough to make me feel no appetite and heartburn to eat something, more mengedan I vent my mind to something else.

Really, it's a really bad day. I leaned my back on the chair and turned it to the left. My eyes returned to the glass window throughout the room where the specks of rain still seemed to be drenching from outside.

How's Stella doing at home now? She was warm and limp this morning, so I was a little worried. Therefore, even though the feeling of wanting to continue to relax in the rain is so great, I must not delay the goods for a second if I want to be able to quickly return today. How knows Stella needs me at home.
