Duren Sweet

Deadline

Bianca woke up with a better body condition. He was able to walk normally after taking medicine, resting and compressing his stomach with warm water.

He immediately took a shower and changed clothes, impatient to meet Ilham who slept on the sofa of his living room. Last night he gave a pillow and blanket for Inspiration to sleep more comfortably.

Bianca came out of her room already neat and beautiful. He looked at the sofa and found Ilham still asleep there. He approached the sofa and looked at the face of Inspiration.

Actually Ilham is not as handsome as Alex, but his body language makes Bianca curious. Alex is seductive but Inspiration is much more interesting.

Bianca touched Ilham's forehead, tidying up her jet-black hair. He glanced over the blanket and found Ilham sleeping without his shirt. The Shirt of Inspiration lay on the edge of the sofa, neatly folded.

Suddenly Bianca's hand was held by Ilham, she opened her eyes staring intently into Bianca's brown eyes. Again, Bianca thought Ilham would kiss her, this time she did not close her eyes.

Bianca got closer to Ilham, but Ilham pushed her and quickly got up from the sofa. Bianca felt a little disappointed by Ilham's treatment.

Bianca: "Do you hate me?"

Inspiration: "No."

Bianca: "If you don't, why don't you accept me? I like you, Inspiration."

Ilham : "Hentikan itu. Kita tidak akan berhasil."

Bianca: "Where do you know you didn't give me a chance."

Inspiration: "What kind of relationship you hope will not happen between us."

Bianca: "I love you, Inspiration. Is that not enough?"00

Inspiration was silent, he took his shirt and immediately put it on.

Inspiration: "I'm home."

Bianca: "Wait, I'll make you some coffee or breakfast. Please don't go. I'm not gonna talk anymore. Please."

Ilham left the Bianca apartment without looking back. Bianca wept bitterly, she began to grow tired of chasing after Ilham who did not even look at her.

Her phone rings and her papa again asks Bianca's future husband, making the situation even worse.

-------

Bianca kept coming to the office that day, she finished her job well and quickly. Every now and then he glanced at Ilham who remained iron-talking and cold.

Mia sees Bianca more moody than usual, she sees her daydreaming at lunch in the office cafeteria. Bianca didn't touch the food she was carrying. Even though the menu he brought was quite tasty aroma.

Mia called Bianca to discuss the proposal she made.

Mia: "The results are pretty good. You've made a lot of progress since you worked here."

Bianca: "Yes, but not with my love."

Mia: "You still haven't succeeded with Inspiration."

Bianca: "Yes that is. I want to leave, from tomorrow I can't come again. My dad asked me to go home. I'm sorry that while I'm here, I often worry you. I still have a little bit of a crush on Alex. Just this."

Bianca shows the small end of her pinky.

Bianca: "But I've no interest in taking Alex anymore. My dad said he had a husband for me and I would love it. Thank you, Mia."

Bianca hugs Mia who is about to cry seeing Bianca's sadness.

Mia: "May you be happy."

Bianca: "I'll invite you. Come on yes."

Bianca held back her cries, she rubbed the corner of her eyes preventing her tears from falling.

Bianca: "Please do not say anything as Inspiration. He's been pretty busy working."

Bianca moves out of Alex's workspace after giving her a hardcopy proposal and copying the softcopy to Alex's laptop.

He went back to his study, Ilham was not there. Bianca took her bag and left Alex's office. She felt enough with Inspiration and prepared to accept her papa's chosen husband.

-----

Mia: "Mas, I'm the same Bianca. We have to help him."

Alex: "Aduch, don't interfere with the dech. Let them have business. We don't know how Inspiration feels, do we."

Mia: "If so, I have a surefire way to let us know how Inspiration feels."

Alex: "Where?"

Mia smiled sweetly making Alex even more curious. He asked Alex to call for Inspiration,

Inspiration: "Yes, sir?"

Mia: Inspiration, this is a proposal made by Bianca. Everything is complete and right. Please keep. And Bianca's a part, starting tomorrow she's not coming to work anymore. Bianca's getting married."

Inspiration : "...Okay, mom. Anything else?"

Mia: "Not for now. Thank you, yeah."

Inspiration came out of Alex's study, he grasped the proposal in his hand tightly. He took a deep breath and breathed it out.

Inspiration is silent, calming her mixed feelings. Now that Bianca has decided to accept her papa's choice, she feels lonely. You could say he was used to the presence of Bianca.

-----

Alex smiled to get a chat from Ilham who asked for permission to pursue Bianca. Apparently Mia's strategy worked.

Alex: "Darling, Inspiration permission to pursue Bianca."

Mia: "Tuch. Diem-diem dear but pretend not dear. Did you get permission?"

Alex: "That's it. Hadeh, Wanda where else is nich."

Mia: "Isn't Wanda on vacation back home? What do you need?"

Alex: "Documents for tomorrow's meeting."

Geck, tok, tok! Inspiration entered Alex's study, he brought a stack of documents for tomorrow's meeting and the day after.

Inspiration: "Sir, this is Wanda's seat. He said to meet tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."

Akex: "Oh, did he call you?"

Inspiration: "Yes, sir. He said he had a hard signal and he would be hard to contact."

Alex: "Ok, you can go. Thank you." Thank you."

Mia: "Ilham, good luck."

Inspiration: "I'm not sure, ma'am. But I'll try."

Alex and Mia looked at each other. Somehow with Bianca now.

-----

Ilham ran into the Bianca apartment, he knocked on the door but no one opened the door. A little panicked he tried to call Bianca but her phone was off.

Meanwhile, Bianca is getting ready to meet the man of her papa choice at a restaurant. My dad had already booked a place for them. Bianca stared at her phone, hoping that Ilham would call her but she had blocked all of Ilham's access so she could not reach him.

Papa Bianca called out to him,

Papa Bianca: "Bianca, let's get going."

Bianca: "Yes, pah. I hope it fits."

Papa Bianca: "Are you sure, right? Don't play with people's feelings."

Bianca: "And Bianca uda promised me papa."

Papa Bianca: "Where is the same...What is his name? Inspiration?"

Bianca: "He doesn't like Bianca, pah."

Papa Bianca: "She said the reason?"

Bianca: "Maybe because of papa... Bianca means because papa is rich. Or maybe it's because Bianca's not attractive."

Bianca laughed wryly, she did not sound happy at all. After she decides to leave Alex's office, she realizes that she loves Inspiration completely. And now it's too late.

Bianca: "Bianca go first yes, reward. He will wait a long time. Papa has a picture of him?"

Papa Bianca: "Don't have. Later you also meet, just wait in a place that you have ordered."

Bianca: "Ok, reward."

Papa Bianca could see her daughter was not excited at all. He looks sad and sad. Papa Bianca called someone, said something quickly and hung up.

Before long, papa Bianca got a photo and a short chat from the person she called. He smiled with satisfaction and put his phone on the table.

------

Bianca had already arrived at the place her father had determined. A waiter drove him to a private room. Bianca ordered a glass of orange juice to accompany her while she waited.

After the orange juice was delivered to her desk, Bianca waited. Not 10 minutes later, someone knocked on the door and entered the room.

Bianca recognized the man,

Bianca: "You..??!!"
