I'm Not a Wild Grass

Lying (POV Kiyano)

Flashback one week ago...

My job as the head manager in the textile factory office branch made me somewhat confused at the beginning. I found that there were a lot of irregularities done by some of the office staff when I studied the monthly reports regarding the developments in this office.

I am quite furious about the acts of corruption committed by some irresponsible people. Even though when I find out the size of their salary, I value they have a salary above average when compared to the salaries of other employees with the same profession in other offices.

Indeed, my father-in-law taught me to always put employee welfare first. Because according to him, if employees feel happy with their work, and they get a decent wage for the results of their work, of course their performance will also increase.

I realized the truth of my father-in-law's thinking. And until now, before I moved to this B city, I always tried to create a conducive work environment for my subordinate employees.

I always get closer to my subordinate employees. Humanist, humorous but still firm and practical, like that I was in the eyes of my subordinates all this time.

Unfortunately, I have to face abuse in my new office now. And I think I should make some big changes.

But before that, I had to adapt and get to know in advance all the habits and work mechanisms that exist in all parts of this office. So that I don't take the wrong step when I enact a new work system, later.

"Hhh. new also a day, I miss Bella very much. What else is it?" I muttered alone on the balcony of my apartment.

A second later, I tried calling Bella's number. Unfortunately, until the last ring of my phone call was not picked up.

I took a breath, feeling disappointed. It feels like my days in town B are going to be pretty hard for me to get through.

No friends talking, no place complaining. I hope Bella can finish her employment contract soon and get a letter of recommendation to move to this city. So that I no longer feel as lonely as I feel right now.

Although impressed humanist and humorous, I am not a typical man who likes to find solace outside the home. More often after work I'm always at home, as I am today.

Because in my opinion, the best rest period is to enjoy a relaxing time together with the people closest to us. But now..

"Hhh. I hope the time passes quickly until Saturday. So I can meet again Bella who wants to play here (apartment)," I explained to the wind.

When I was looking at the full moon shining perfectly in the East of the sky there, somehow another woman's face slipped through my mind. Laila's..

I remember the face of the woman I caught wet sleeping on the cafeteria table while I was going around doing the cutting. Laila was so sick that I had to wake her up many times. Without realizing it, I smiled when I remembered the innocent face of the woman when she fell asleep.

I was also reminded of the carelessness Laila had committed as she left her cell phone in the cafeteria on her workday which was either her second or third day.

Or even Laila's innocent face while serving me some bad black coffee. And the ridiculous reason he was afraid of the stove was off, when he replaced his own gas cylinder.

If I rate Laila's performance as objectively as possible, then I guess I'll fire the woman on her first day at work. Because Laila is so presumptuous at the boss, sloppy, original work, and a little stupid.

I wanted to smile again to realize the stupidity and silliness that is often spoken by Laila. And I feel very lucky to have a wife who is not stupid like that woman.

Because my Bella is a friendly nurse, smart and reliable with her work. A few months ago even Bella got the honorary degree of being the best nurse in the hospital where she worked. And I am very proud of the achievements of my dear wife.

My Bella is the best.

"Hhh. I miss you, my Lunar Queen." I whispered back to the wind. For the longing I had for Bella, my dear wife.

I feel excited when Saturday comes. Because my dear Bella, will be visiting my apartment later this afternoon.

I look forward to my waiting time with joy. And nothing can diminish my happiness over my hope of meeting my dear Bella.

Except maybe a small incident related to Laila. One of the OB staff at my new office. She's really a stupid woman who often makes me anxious to fire her many feet. But somehow I always paused my intention in the end.

Call it me so do not have the heart to say a fast sentence every time I look at it with his big enough eyes.

This morning, for some reason, I punished Laila for going up and down the stairs in delivering some files on my orders.

Actually, I didn't mean to work on it. I think with the practice of going up and down the stairs Laila will be more agile in carrying out her duties.

And I hope that woman will also feel deterred and no longer be rude to the boss. As he did when I marked him with the words 'does he have a crush on me?'.

It's not polite Laila, because she's trying to throw up when she hears my joke. As a result, I gave him the punishment to go up and down the stairs and clean all inches of my office until it was really neat and clean.

Hopefully after her, Laila can better keep her mouth that continues to roar rough it.

Hah. Enough about the rough chick.

Back to my dear Bella.

By late afternoon, I had just seen the phone screen. And I found there a message from my dear Bella. He told me that he had canceled visiting me because he had an impromptu watch tonight.

I feel very disappointed. But I don't want to make my Bella so bad. I finally told him I was okay. And will wait for him to keep his promise next week visit again.

I actually feel very disappointed. How missed I was on my wife's shady face. I want to hug my dear Bella and let go of the longing I have endured for almost a week.

Suddenly, a thought came into my head. I decided to go home to A and surprise my beloved wife. Surely Bella would be very surprised to find my return later.

And I smiled at the sweetness of our meeting.

As a result, I immediately finished the work that day. After that, I went home to the apartment to clean up and rest for a while. Only after the maghrib, I left home to city A by driving a grab car.

I intentionally didn't drive my own car. Because I don't want to drift through my two and a half hour drive home at the wheel. I thought, let me wear a grab once in a while. So that I don't get too accomplished later.

To the grab driver I immediately set out on our way to the hospital where my Bella worked.

Didn't he say he had an impromptu guard duty tonight, so he couldn't come visit me to B town?

After arriving at the hospital, I immediately aimed my step at the rest ward of the medical staff. I've been to this hospital a lot to pick up or surprise Bella. So that some of Bella's coworkers already know me.

However, when I asked about Bella's whereabouts, a fellow nurse said that Bella had taken three days off, starting today.
