Look at me, Mela!

Chapter 21: Darsen Policy

"Mel, I don't want to hurt you but there's someone who likes you. He's my friend and I don't want to hurt him. Sorry, huh?" pras replied and returned the jacket to Mela.

Mela tried to smile. He should look fine. Pras is also very surprised by Mela's confession, especially if the boss knows how bad she is.

"Thank you, Brother. Even this way I am relieved. When I get married later there are no feelings that block," said Mela then left Pras.

Pras stared at Mela's departure and turned his back and was surprised that he had the boss behind him. The heart would instantly stop, even like wanting to fight but Darsen immediately left Pras. Pras chases all the way to his room like a lover who has to explain this misunderstanding.

After arriving at Darsen's room, the man tried to work again to take care of one large agency that had already made several artists rise. His efforts in advancing the artists are very recognized thumbs up even Darsen is willing to do anything so that the artist can be successful and of course the name of Ars Agency.

"Boss, that wasn't what the boss thought. Me and Mela ..."

"Enough! Go back to work!" darsen cut Pras' speech.

Pras approached Darsen then squatted down beside his stool. He did not want the boss to misunderstand him.

"Like you so it's over. I won't bother him anymore" Darsen said.

"No, Boss. Mela liked me for just a moment. Boss should keep chasing him!" pras replied.

"Pursue him like a fool? He even thinks of me as an older brother and even he says old me. Goddamnit! If only I were your age, we would be a little distance away. Me and Mela are 22 years old. It's a long distance, I realize I'm too old for him" Darsen said.

Pras sighed, how can the boss not just give up like this? Darsen also did not want to express his feelings to Mela. She was too embarrassed by her feelings and especially her age problem.

"Boss, I'm not good with you. Indirectly I cornered you but I didn't want to. Sorry, i! I'll help the Boss to get Mela" Pras said.

Darsen stared at Pras intensely. "You'll kill me if I do that. Mela likes you and at least doesn't like that obscure Leon. I'll support you if you have a relationship."

Pras shook his head, he didn't want to. He remained steadfast beside Darsen and apologized profusely. Friendship between Darsen and Pras has been established for quite a while, Pras does not want to be damaged just like that because of love problems.

"Back to work! Don't eat blind! Today is a lot of work! Moreover, Laura's problem isn't completely solved, is it?" ask Darsen.

Pras stood up, he looked down respectfully and then walked out of Darsen's room. After that Darsen let out a long sigh, it seemed like he was going to bury his feelings deeply.

Darsen shifted the mood by returning to work, he saw social media talking about his new girl group. The pros and cons are there but Darsen doesn't want to think about it.

At the same time, Darsen's phone rang which turned out to be the phone from the app. Darsen's eyes glared when Grey's name called him.

Lift it up or not, huh?

Darsen quickly picked him up. On the phone, Mela was crying. Darsen tried to change his voice so that Mela would not recognize him.

"Hallo, why are you crying?" ask Darsen.

"Hallo, Brother. Can I confide?"

"Hem .. confide!"

"I am sad and happy right now. I can express my feelings to people I like even if rejected," said Mela.

"Don't cry! Your sadness will rub off on me if you cry. This must be all a silver lining. But I salute you for being able to express your feelings to people you like" Darsen replied.

They sat in the agency cafeteria. Darsen will eat the same food as his staff. He ate deliciously until he did not look at Pras who had stolen a glance at him.

"Boss ... "

"You made Mela cry, that's what I can't forgive" Darsen said.

"I'm sorry, Boss! But I should have rejected it. I will still help the Boss get Mela," replied Pras who was not in Darsen's room.

After eating, Darsen immediately headed somewhere to be alone. He went to his late wife's grave. Seila Natasha, the woman he once admired even married in front of a priest. His departure still left many wounds but with the presence of Mela at least reduced the grief. Mela has now turned her life bright again.

"How are you, Seila? Miss you. The news of our son is fine and of course I'm telling you the good news. I like my own sister. It was good news then sad news, he did not like me and instead liked Pras," said Darsen while holding the white tombstone.

This is not the first time Darsen is hurt and disappointed but this time it feels different because he is a silly heartache because of his own sister. Darsen didn't expect it to happen like this, no one knew.

After being satisfied with his late wife, Darsen decided to return to the agency office. He drives alone without Pras, just the solitude he needs right now.

Kling ...

Greys

Later in the afternoon should meet, I'll give you something.

Darsen simply read the message without replying. It seems he is no longer interested in communicating with his online friend Mela. The hope was no longer there to get Mela.

Greys

You're busy, aren't you? Take some time, brother! I waited in the park yesterday, this afternoon.

Darsen sighed, while driving he was not excited in the least. Even at the red light, he almost broke through. Fortunately, he woke up from his daydream.

Otherside.

Mela sat on the 1st floor bench. The work is done all, he noticed the passing of the artists who have a need in the agency. One of them is Suzan she is a senior artist who joined Ars Agency 2 years ago. He left his old agency and joined Ars Agency.

Yeah, correct. She is the ex-wife of Prasatya.

Suzan Adelia married Pras at the age of 19 and divorced at the age of 23. Reportedly, Suzan had an affair with her agency boss first but it was just a rumor that did not know the truth.

Mela is eager to ask for her signature, she immediately approached him but when going to ask for a signature even got a speech that does not wear the heart.

"Surge! I'm busy, you know my autograph is very expensive. Moreover you are very smelly, huh .. What do you work for? Pick up trash?" suzan.

Darsen who came from the entrance directly embraced Mela's body making everyone look at her again.

"Yes, he picked up trash in my room? Is my room that way? And why come here?" ask Darsen.

Suzan smiled sweetly at Darsen. "Sir Darsen, don't get too sniffy! I am a valuable asset of Ars Agency."

"Cih .. With your arrogance it will make you self-destruct. Assets you said? My agency if you lose it won't bankrupt him. So take care of your needs and get out of here! And you just add more wounds to Pras" said Darsen with a playful eye.
