Engelskraft: Love of Wasted Angels

New Friends

Ailey seemed unfocused as if she was thinking about something. Siti who was tidying up her work clothes watched her colleague anxiously. Five minutes later the shop would open, the woman could not let her friend show her grim face in front of the visitors.

“Ailey, are you okay? Need permission not to work today?” Tegur Siti with friendly.

“Oh, I'm fine. There's just something that's stuck.” Answer Ailey.

“You sure? I'm ready to listen if you need a friend to vent.” Connect Siti worried.

“Thank you. Not a serious thing, kok.” Reply Ailey with a small smile.

It seems that Ailey is still troubled by the confrontation Lina had yesterday. It's hard to work with an unsuitable boss. Intention to resign had arisen, but Ailey should not be rash because she could become unemployed without income if she resigned without a backup plan. Dilemmas.

“Wait, it looks like I forgot something!” Ailey suddenly said.

“What is it?” Ask Siti curious.

“I go to the toilet for a while.” Ailey said frantically as she carried her bag and ran away.

“Any once that kid. The store is open.” Siti Gumam.

Inside the still-lone toilet, Ailey ransacked the contents of her bag like she was looking for a very important item. It didn't take long, he found a bottle of medicine he was looking for earlier. ARV drugs for HIV.

“Thank God I brought the medicine. Last morning I completely forgot to drink it because of too much thought.” He said while putting the ARV drug he was carrying into his mouth.

The drug should be taken every day within the same hour. However, it seems that Ailey had to change her medication hours due to forgetting. Either who was to blame, himself or Lina who had ruined his concentration.

“You need a drink?” A woman's voice shocked him.

Ailey who just remembered that she did not bring her drinking bottle could only nod while holding back the medicine that was already in her mouth. The woman who was suddenly next to him held out her pink drinking bottle in front of Ailey. Without a second thought, Ailey grabbed the bottle and downed it along with the medicine.

“Patient drink later you choke.” Said the woman.

“Thank you, yes.” Ailey said kindly while returning the bottle to the foreign woman.

“Electronic Abram Employee, yes?” Ask.

“Iya, how can you know?”

“Viewing from your uniform. Hehe.” The woman replied with a laugh.

“Oh, sorry! I need to get back to work soon. Thanks again for drinking.” Ailey said hurriedly and left the toilet with a thousand feet. He did not want to be late for work and made a new fuss with Lina. In addition, he also does not want others to realize the drug he took is for people with HIV. If it were to spread, he could have been shunned and worsened his reputation in Abram.

“How are you doing? Sure you can still work today?” Tanya Siti saw Ailey's condition is still not good.

“Iya, just relax.” Answer Ailey.

“Oh, so you're Ailey?” The voice of a female visitor shocked the two of them.

Ailey saw the woman who gave her a drink in the toilet behind her. The woman had long hair with pretty round eyes. Her charming smile adds to her beauty. He looked like a noble because the clothes he was wearing looked expensive but looked polite and unpretentious.

“Sorry, can I help you?” Ailey said kindly.

“Include, I am Lanny Marliani.” He stretched out his hand with his fingers.

“Marliani? Don't tell me you're Mother Lina's brother!” Siti.

Lanny just grimaced and scratched her head. No need for verbal answers if the gesture alone is enough to explain.

“Sorry, Miss Lanny! I didn't know you visited.” Connect to panic.

“Just relax, I don't work for Abram. Besides my age is not that old, why should be called mother.” Lanny said it wasn't good. “So you're Ailey?” Ask the woman to Ailey.

“Iya.” Ailey nodded.

“He should be jealous. You are beautiful even though a little contained, sih.” Lanny said as she watched Ailey's appearance closely.

“Slightly, anyway. Still okay lah. If your cheeks get flushed again and dress up better, I think your life will be more unsettled because my brother must be upset.”

“What are you talking about, anyway? Whose life won't be quiet?” Ailey's asking is upset.

“Ahahaha, it's okay. I'm just slacking off. Oh yeah, let's be friends, Ailey!” Lanny said cheerfully for no reason while embracing Ailey's arm.

“Eh, what is this? Don't get along, deh!” Ailey protests without dismissing Lanny's embrace.

“It seems that your life is very interesting, yes.” Bisksiti in Ailey's ear.

Lanny's behavior attracted the attention of all other SPGs who were guarding the store. Lanny's energetic and easy-going attitude makes everyone who sees her feel the positive energy of the woman. Even without realizing it, Lanny who was hanging on Ailey's arm was immediately mobbed by Abram Electronics employees out of curiosity to get acquainted.

“Ailey, will you accompany me to look around Engelskraft?” Pinta Lanny spoiled.

“Don't joke! It's still working hours.” Ailey said she was scared of being scolded.

“Sebentaaaaar time! I'm responsible if you get scolded by my brother. Pleaaaaseee!”

“Ya, already. Just a moment, yeah!” Ailey said she gave up because she couldn't handle the woman's advances.

The Engelskraft cafe looks as crowded as ever. The queue of visitors was still long as usual, as if the scenery was normal in the hitz cafe. Lanny who just saw the cafe for the first time immediately gawk so naturally against the hustle and bustle there.

“Have been satisfied see it yet? I'm back in the store, yes.” Get Ailey worried.

“Mana satisfied if only see from the outside, I want to enter briefly.” Lanny said as she passed the snaking queue.

“Hey, don't interrupt! You will be scolded!” Ailey pursues Lanny, who sneaks in line.

Just getting to the door of the cafe, Mario had already intercepted the two women. His face looked displeased with both hands crossed in front of his chest.

“You again. Why, yes Abram employee likes to look for a commotion?” Mario told Ailey.

“Sorry, we will be leaving soon,” said Ailey. “Lanny, let's just go!”

“Eits, no one can arrange me,” reject Lanny. “Look, I came just to look around. Take it easy, I won't buy anything and sit inside. So, I don't need to queue, do I?” Lanny reasoned.

“Really unreasonable. If you have no intention of buying anything, it is better to leave here. Just-there's.” Mario sounded annoyed.

“Ah, ok then I want a message. You think I can't afford it? Where's the menu book?” Lanny said she didn't want to lose.

“If you want to order, please queue first, yes miss.” Reply Mario ketus.

Lanny and Mario are both not losing. The two of them were just clashing sharp gazes like a child waiting for his opponent to blink and give up. Seeing the situation getting heated up, Milo who was inside the cafe immediately came out to see what was going on.

“Why else is this? Abram's people again?” Ask Milo to Mario.

“It looks like Abram's people no one knows manners, boss! Look, they snuck in line!” Obviously Mario.

Realizing that Ailey is there, Mario can only sigh, “Ailey, you are not bored, yes scolded by your boss? Quickly go back to your store and take who this woman goes with you.”

“Heh? Not polite, yes! I'm Lanny Marliani who will be the sister-in-law of CEO Abram Corporation.” Lanny did not accept.

“Already, already. Let's just go, yuk. Don't mess with the owner of this cafe! Hihahi. ” Said Ailey chuckling while pulling Lanny's hand.

While bringing Lanny back to the store, Ailey turned her head back and gave a wink to Milo. The owner of the Engelskraft cafe could only smile a little while shaking his head.

“Well, what's going on between you two? You came down to earth not to establish feelings with earth people, you know.” Said Mario slowly.

“You're too serious, ah!” Reply Milo.

“I was just reminding. If you bond with humans, it will be difficult for you to carry out your duties. Remember, we are not always on earth.” Bright Mario.

Mario's words pierced right into Milo's heart. Sooner or later he will leave the earth. Leaving Earth means leaving Ailey.
