Hate But Love

Eps. 11 (season 2)

Morning greet. The sun shines brightly upon the earth. Screaming inside through the window. Zara was still comfortably closed on her bed.

Last night he had to overtime after coming home from work directly to do his college assignments. Until he slept almost morning. Zara still refused to open her eyes. An alarm sounded but he turned it off violently. Zara shrouded herself and went back to sleep.

Cring...Cring..Cring..

Zara had to wake up. I don't know how many times the alarm went off. He opened his eyes and sat down. His eyes were immediately fixed on the clock located on the nightstand beside his bed.

"Gosh, why are you getting up at this hour?" groused Zara. He immediately ran to the bathroom. Fortunately, the bathroom was empty. If not, he should wait first. Zara immediately took a shower. It's already 06:45. The lecture will begin soon.

After taking a shower, he rushed to the room and got ready. The boarding situation is deserted. All the residents have gone out either work or college. It was her who had not yet come out of the boarding house.

Zara slightly ran out of the boarding house. He immediately put on his helmet and turned on his motorbike. Fortunately, he had a motorbike. If not, he has to run and it takes about 15-20 minutes. Pretty long.

Arriving at the campus parking lot, he immediately ran towards his class. He doesn't want to be late today. It went down the corridor and hit someone several times even though it was not on purpose. When he almost got to his class, he accidentally hit someone.

Brakkk

"Oh." This time Zara and the man both fell down. He immediately picked up the book he was carrying and his bag.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean it" Zara said. He lowered his head.

The man took his phone which had fallen off. The phone screen cracked a little. Maybe accidentally fell a little hard. The man sighed slowly.

"It's okay. Just crack it. No need to overdo it" the man replied. Feeling familiar with her voice, Zara immediately looked up and looked at him.

"Raffa," said Zara Lirih.

Raffa just walked right away. He ignored Zara. Raffa put his phone in his jacket pocket. He went to class and sat there.

"Well, why are you so careless, Zara." murmured Zara and walked towards her class.

His gaze immediately led to Raffa. He feels guilty. But Raffa is really hard to deal with. His person was much more quiet than he was.

"Good morning everyone" said the lecturer who taught them this morning. Zara flinched, she immediately sat down in her chair.

"Mom's morning" replied all the students in the class.

"Alright, for the task that mom gave you yesterday please collect up front. Zara, please you coordinate," said the lecturer. Zara nodded. He stood up and began to take on the duties of his friends one by one.

Until he reached Raffa's place, Zara was immediately nervous. He feels guilty but Raffa's cold attitude is more terrible for him.

Raffa looked at Zara at a glance. He opened his bag and gave his college assignment to Zara. Zara smiled faintly at Raffa. But Raffa just scrunched his forehead.

After the task collection was completed, the lecturer provided some reinforcement for the material last week. After that, he invited students who served for presentations in front of the class. They review each other's material and give opinions and advice as usual.

Morning classes are over. This time it was only a few minutes later and immediately changed the next course.

Long enough to finally finish today's lecture. Zara was deliberately waiting for the quiet class. He wanted to apologize for tampering with Raffa's phone. After feeling quite lonely, Zara walked slowly to Raffa who at that time also wanted to leave class.

Raffa scratched his non-itchy head. Raffa has no problem with that at all. Nor does he want to make it harder for Zara to take responsibility with her phone. But why is this woman so clumsy to apologize and bother him like this.

"Not to think about. I know you were not on purpose" Raffa said. He walked away from Zara alone.

"Where the hell, usually asked for compensation. But how is he even so?" muttered Zara confused. He became dazed himself. Indeed, he intends to be responsible for the cell phone that he has tampered with. But before that word said Raffa did not dispute the trivial.

"That's it," said Zara and left the classroom. He went to the library to return the books he had borrowed.

"Miss Zara," called Fanny and immediately stopped Zara's steps. Zara turned to see who was calling her.

"You?" ask Zara confused. Fanny walked over towards Zara.

"I'm Fanny, Mr. Zidan's personal assistant," Fanny replied kindly. Zara just nodded.

"Where's the hell is she going?" ask Fanny.

"You go to the library. Uh, just call him Zara. No frills, miss," said Zara, scratching her head.

"It's okay, miss. Mmm.. does miss have free time today? I'd like to talk to the lady for a minute" Fannan said. He hoped that Zara would agree to his invitation.

Zara continued her steps. Fanny followed him from behind. Zara's thoughts were everywhere. What is it that Fanny gets to see him.

After arriving at the library, Zara immediately went inside while Fanny waited outside.

"What do you need?" ask Zara when she comes out of the library.

"Let's come with me, miss. We're talking about this somewhere else" Fanny said. Zara simply nodded and followed Fanny's steps. Until without feeling they have arrived at a cafe near the campus. Fanny orders snacks for him and Zara.

"Let's see, I'd like to discuss the young master's offer to you, miss" Fanny said.

"meaning?" ask Zara confused.

"If you are willing, we will pay you three times your salary at the coffee shop. You just have to work for our company" said Fanny.

"If I refuse?" ask Zara from the beginning. He looked at Fanny to hear her answer.

"Better miss does not refuse it. We have no ill intentions for Miss either. Miss just needs to make some coffee for our young master. Become a private barista young master," said Fanny. This time he had to succeed. If not, he will accept the consequences.

"I'm sorry, but I really can't take it. I'm comfortable with my current job" Zara replied politely.

Fanny took a slow breath. It wasn't easy to persuade Zara to agree. If in a subtle way he can't convince Zara, he will have to resort to a slightly rude way. He did not want to fail in his duties this time.

"I can help you to resign from your job Miss. Miss take it easy, we're not cheating or doing anything bad to Miss" Fanny said.

"I'm sorry, but I really can't" Zara said. He stood up and walked away from Fanny. Naive if Zara is not tempted by her salary. It's a matter of trust. He is believed to be a barista at one of the coffee shops. If he resigned just like that, it would disappoint his boss and co-worker.
