FORBIDDEN TO FALL IN LOVE

8. Third Things

Valeda did not move when he found the third candidate from Mrs Emely was a psychopathic introvert.

Initially, Valeda did not want to comment on his appearance that made the eyes hurt. The man was wearing a white shirt with a red bow tie. She said that the theme of her outfit today was 'Detective Conan'. It was still a good thing he did not wear shorts to that restaurant.

Then, he wore ornamental glasses that were so large that he could drown his nose that was not so sharp. Her hair was combed by a mist with many pomades, making her shine when she was struck by light.

"Look at the guy there," he hissed.

Valeda lazily turned his head in the direction Febri was pointing with his chin. He was more interested in the sushi in front of him. But, since Valeda did not want to offend her interlocutors, she followed Febri's request.

"The fat guy. He makes people feel tired just by watching him breathe" he whispered.

Valeda frowned. Not believing the sarcasm that Febri threw. Valeda has no problem with the size of the body or face of most people.

He was not a person of that type who attached great importance to such things. So, he did not understand why Febri was so disturbed by people who had nothing to do with him.

"I'm not disturbed. The man even sat five meters away from me" Valeda replied.

Febri frowned. "You need to start taking care of your health!" saith.

"That guy's not like he's got a contagious disease. Even if I had, I didn't interact with him" Valeda still answered logically.

"No, no! Everyone can be a zombie now. The world is fucked. It's better if we stay at home and work from behind the scenes" Febri still spoke without foundation.

Valeda did not want to respond to Febri. He ate the sushi on his desk slowly. Enjoying how the taste of sushi melted in his mouth. He just had to hold on until the food ran out. So, the sooner Valeda finishes her meal, the sooner she can get home.

"Look at the waiter!" Febri started again. "The clothes are too tight. It's not good if women dress like that. The bald oom-oom had already noticed from earlier. That waitress's ass is really tempting."

Valeda swallowed his food with great struggle. Hearing Febri say that, made Valeda nauseous.

Febri had her sush without using chopsticks, but directly used her hands.

Valeda covered her mouth with tissue. He unintentionally looked into Febri's mouth as he opened his mouth wide. Febri's teeth are perforated in almost every molar, giving off an unpleasant foul odor.

'God! This guy is crazy!' inner Valeda frustration.

"I don't like unethical people like that. They should be more sensitive to the views of others" Febri spoke again.

Valeda's getting dizzy. He put his chopsticks on the plate. Actually he feels affectionate with good sushi in front of him. But, his appetite had already completely disappeared because of Febri.

Valeda got up from his seat. He was already eager to run leaving Febri there.

"Where are you going?" ask Febri.

"Toilet" Valeda replied briefly after thinking for a moment.

"You must be careful in the toilet" Febri bowed his body on the table, as if no one would hear him but Valeda.

"Squeezy floor?" Valeda threw the logical possibility that was on his head.

Febri shook his head with a sharp look. "Be careful there is a hidden camera above the bathroom ceiling. Or, the mirror turned out to be two-way. It could be that the cleaning service installed a voice eavesdropper behind the toilet seat."

Valeda laughed in disbelief at what he heard. Dealing with Febri turned out to be more draining than designing his new mall. Febri is far-fetched. Is that why he became an introvert psychopath?

Feeling that it would be a waste of time, Valeda passed to the toilet to just breathe fresh air. The smell of this restaurant toilet is even better than the bad breath of Febri.

The sound of classical music from Yiruma suddenly sounded from inside the handbag that Valeda was holding. Celine's name is on her screen. "Celine, save me!" sambar Valeda was impatient. "I'm going to die! Real dead! Come here quickly!"

"Wow! Waw! Waw! What's the matter, Miss Valeda?" Celine was still joking, but Valeda was crying.

"This third person, is completely insane! I should be able to escape! Get me!" exclaim Valeda panicked.

"I'll give you an extra day off for the month. Get me up!"

"OK, okay. I went there with Kris," Celine replied at last, then hung up.

Valeda pulled her hair back. He was sweating for some unclear reason. Her stomach felt full and she wanted to vomit.

At the quickest, the time it took Celine and Kris to get there was thirty minutes. There's no way Valeda's waiting in the toilet till that long. Febri would think strangely and make a fuss. Valeda doesn't want to get caught with a freak like Febri.

Valeda's out of the toilet. He peered at his desk for a moment, looking at Febri who was sitting stooped and moving away whenever anyone passed next to him.

"Gilaaaaa," murmured Valeda. He won't go back to that table. However, he had to pass that table if he wanted to get out of the restaurant.

When despair struck, a man who seemed to be familiar to him, passed by in front of him. Without further ado, Valeda caught the man's hand.

"Wait!" pinta Valedaf.

The man turned around because his hand was pulled by Valeda. He returned Valeda's gaze from behind his baseball cap. "Yes?"

"We've met before" Valeda replied, though she wasn't sure where she had seen the man in front of her.

"Oh, yeah! Thanks for the help!" the man bowed deeply in front of Valeda. "If it wasn't for Miss's help, my sister wouldn't have survived. Even my sister got the best treatment room."

Valeda immediately remembered the incident last night. "Pay me!" Valeda caught both the hands of the foreign men in front of him.

"C..yar?" the tananya slowly with a gawking face. He was obviously shocked by Valeda's words. "But-but... I don't have any money for-"

"Not money!" Valeda shook his head quickly. "Pay me by helping me get out of here!"

Without waiting for permission from the man in front of him, Valeda grabbed his hat and immediately put it on his head. He stuffed his long hair into the hat with the origin.

"Your jacket! Your jacket!" pinta Valeda was impatient.

Innocently, the man complied with what Valeda asked for. Perhaps, for him hats and jackets are not worth what Valeda has given his sister.

"Here," he handed Valeda his jacket.

Valeda hurriedly put on the jacket he received. As soon as he lifted the jacket zipper to cover his neck, Valeda looked back at his desk.

Febri's still there. He was talking to a female servant laughing. In contrast to Febri, the waiter put on a dislike expression and clutched his tray in front of his chest. Valeda if he knew what was going on.

"Miss, there's a-"

"Is there another way out of here?" valeda asked quickly, cutting off the man's question.

"There was. Through the kitchen" replied the man.

"Please help me get out of here!"

The man asked no further questions and led Valeda to the kitchen to find an alternative way out.

"Daniel, all the payload's been unloaded. You want to go back now?" A chef approached.

"Yes. I'm going home now" replied the man who turned his back on Valeda.

"For payment, as usual, huh?" said the chef. His eyes then realized Valeda was hiding behind Daniel. "Who is that? Why go back and forth and bring a girl? Meet me where?"

"I'm sorry, I refuse to tell you. I'm on a rescue mission" said Daniel, then immediately pulled Valeda out.
