"I'm going to Singapore now. Please finish all the work, including mine." said Leo as he placed a stack of files on Mia's desk.
"What's wrong? did something happen to Mr. Devan?" Mia stood up.
"No, there's something I need to do."
"How long was it there? how's Mr. Alex meeting going next Tuesday?"
"Tomorrow I'll go home, so there's no need to worry about that."
"Oh so."
"Yes. Pray that we won't have to replace Devan that day."
"Surely."
Leo left without saying anything else.
Mia returns to her desk after escorting Leo out. He saw the stacking of files that Leo left behind.
"It's so good that he could just leave his job."
"Need help?" Arka appeared out of nowhere, but Mia was used to it so was not surprised anymore.
"You want to?" Mia enthusiastic.
"certain."
"But I need a chair."
"Attent." Mia pulls Leo's chair to her desk and Arka sits there."
In a few moments they immediately drowned in the work with one foot Mia stepped on the feet of Arka.
"I'm done." Arka.
"really?"
Arka nodded. Arka finished the job that Leo left in just 2 hours. Although it was a few times the file fell because Mia continued to change position.
"I don't think you're really an OB." Mia again touched on the OB problem to make Arka change mood.
"It looks like you'd really like me to be an OB." said Arka sarcas.
"No, it's not that. I'm just confused who you really are. You can do this job quickly, like you are very experienced."
"I don't know either, I just feel familiar with the files." Arka would not want to come think about it.
"I'll have lunch now, will you come?" Mia stand.
"Today you're not waiting for them to disperse?" Arka asked because every lunch Mia always waited for the quiet canteen.
"No, my work also finished faster because of you so I want to eat right away." Mia walks towards the door but is confronted by Arka.
"What?"
"My gift?"
"What gift?"
"I've helped you, when there's no reward."
"Oh so you're not sincere in helping me?"
"Nothing is free in this world." Arka's approaching.
"What the hell, yaudah yuk I bought to eat." Mia wants to walk again.
"You know I don't eat." The arka stayed in the way.
"Continue what? you don't wear new clothes either." Mia dodges Arka and grabs the doorknob but Arka quickly grabs the hand and pushes Mia to the door that is still closed.
"Gapain you?" Mia nervous.
"I'm gonna take my present."
Arka's soft, cold lips now swept wet Mia's warm lips. Sipping each other with full feeling, coupled with a little passion makes the kiss more thrilling.
"Act..I have to eat." Mia said on the kiss.
"In a moment." Arka replied in a hoarse voice, then continued her action. Kissing Mia was like an opium for Arka, although Arka had been trying to hold her after what had happened before, but if it had been like this it was difficult for her to withdraw.
Arka's hand is now behind Mia's shirt. Touching Mia's skin whose temperature was far compared to her. The touch made Mia aware and immediately released her lips, then pulled Arka's hand.
"Sorry." Arka retreated, but Mia clasped her hand.
"No need to run away, I'm not angry." Mia remembers the last time Arka escaped because she crossed the line.
Arka smiled.
"This is the office and I'm so hungry." Mia smiled and went to the toilet.
The Arka's smile grew wider.
***
Leo has arrived in Singapore and is directly in the hospital where Devan is being treated. He went to see the doctor in charge of Devan first before going to Devan's ward.
"Hows it? is there progress?" Leo asked Dr. Gu.
"So far it's been stable."
"Will he be up in a week?"
"I'm not sure. It's not something I can be sure of."
***
Leo is now next to Devan, sitting in the same chair.
"Wake up, like Mia's your soul mate." Leo touched Devan's hand, he saw a ring that was coiled around his little finger.
"She's even wearing your ring without love."
Leo remembers Devan being so enthusiastic when he bought the ring 5 months ago. He said he would give it to her when he would ask Mia to be his lover. But, for taking him everywhere too often Devan ends up losing his ring. He's been all over the place he's been looking but he can't find it.
"How did you find that ring?" Leo is already bathed in sweat as he continues to search for Devan's missing ring. They were in the park at the office.
"Jude, how else." Devan shrugged his shoulders, then wore the other ring on his little finger.
"Why dipake? it's for Mia." Leo sat down next to Devan.
"Let's not say anymore. It doesn't matter what I have, what's important is that I want to give it to doi there." Devan looked away with a loving smile. Leo shook his head to see the boss and his best friend.
Leo smiled remembering that day.
"Oh yes, I also know who made you like this. I was just wondering how he got into prison. He had good reason not to go to jail." Leo was silent for a moment. Listening to the sounds of Devan's life support as if it was Devan's answer.
"So you have to wake up. Help me so he can go to jail and take responsibility for everything he's done."
Without Leo noticing Devan's eyes rolling in closed petals.
"Next week Mr. Alex asked you to come directly to the same meeting with him. He rejected Mia last week. Try lo shadowin, Mia who is still a new child has to get pressure from Mr. Alex. Don't you want to bales him?"
"Come on, you get up. I slept for almost three months. Your muscles are starting to sag. Mia wouldn't like flat boys." Leo always carries the name Mia, because he knows what Mia means to Devan.
Her tears still could not bear even though she had been chatting with a carefree tone.
"I've come back first. Kasian prospective girlfriend lo if I stay in for a long time, your work can be a lot of stress he if you have to do everything yourself." Leo stands.
"You have to wake up, I'll be back here this weekend. Inget, the ring he's wearing you said it's from lo."
Leo turned around leaving Devan. At the same time, Devan's tears came down.
