Love Because Love

LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT

For a while Dave sat down to join them, until the break was almost over.

“Time to go back to work,” Luciana nudged Nia's shoulder who immediately smiled as she looked at Laurel, giving a sign for her to say goodbye to Dave to leave the canteen.

“Bos, you return to our respective posts, thanks for the time to chat with us,” Laurel got up from her seat, followed by others including Dave.

“Other times if you want to talk like the case today, just say it in our apples,” Indah smiled to hear the words of Dave, because previously Indah had discussed some of the difficulties when carrying out her duties, as she did her job, especially if you are in contact with doctors who sometimes want to be alone, including Dr. Arman.

They immediately walked away from the canteen, Dave returned to his office while the others walked towards the polyclinic.

“Eh Laurel, it seems like the boss is interested in you,” Laurel smiles at Nia's words.

“Do not gossip, it sounds Hana doctor can get your dawn lecture,”

“Eh, does that mean you've been called Hana's doctor?” Laurel immediately turned to look at Luciana who had just asked about Hana's doctor who called her.

“You know from whom?” Hearing a question back from Laurel, the three of them immediately looked at Laurel's face together.

“Wahhhhh, has not changed also doctor Hana, even you have not released the 3-month trial period has been called as well. Almost all female employees here after passing the 3-month trial period declared graduation will definitely be briefed by doctor Hana especially about not daring to approach the boss,” Laurel was widened in shock to hear Nia's explanation.

“You are the only one who was called the fastest by doctor Hana, meaning you are really considered a heavy rival by her,” Lusiana chimed in on Nia's words earlier, leaving Laurel only speechless.

“If I were a doctor Hana would be worried anyway, from the way the boss looked at doctor Laurel had looked completely different, let alone in the cafeteria, where ever the boss chatted with female employees except with doctor Hana, even then because wherever the boss went doctor Hana always tried to get close to the boss,” Indah said as her eyes pointed upwards, as she looked, as if remembering the incident in the canteen just now.

“Not that, I was really shocked when the boss drank Laurel's water, meaning they had kissed indirectly,” Nia smiled seductively towards Laurel.

“Hust,” Laurel immediately reprimanded her friends with a red face extinguished in shame, making her three friends immediately laugh.

“Already ah, don't talk about it again, later there will be a horror thought what you say really happened,” Laurel hastily accelerated her steps towards the polyclinic of internal medicine, the, making the other three friends could only look at him with a giggle.

"Well, as always, with whatever clothes Dr. Laurel always looks beautiful," It was beautiful looking in awe at Laurel who had just entered the Bina Bersama building to attend Dave's birthday party tonight. In the invitation is clearly written dress code (Dress Code is an instruction regarding clothing that must be worn. Usually included in an invitation. Whether the meeting invitation, Meeting Invitation, or other official invitations) that must be worn today are official clothes, because the invitation is not only for hospital employees, but also for hospital staff, but some business associates from Dave, so inevitably Laurel also had to wear a dress like the other invitations.

"Hey, have you come? Have you seen Luciana?" The ferry that was suddenly there beside Laurel immediately approached her, followed by Roy who immediately let out a voice of scream as he saw Laurel who could only smile at her actions.

"Indeed you should have been a celebrity rather than a doctor" Hearing Feri's words, Luciana who had just come and walked towards them instantly pinched Feri's arm which instantly grimaced.

"Lus, don't be too fierce, there will be no men who will dare to approach you," Hearing a warning from Roy, he said, Luciana clenched her hand and raised it up pretending to want to hit Roy who immediately joined in pretending to dodge, making Feri immediately act by standing between Roy and Luciana.

"Jealous? Did I not hear wrong? Of jealousy? At you? It seemed like the sky had collapsed," Roy and Indah immediately laughed at the protest from Luciana, while Feri had his face slightly reddened. Seeing the reaction from Feri, Laurel smiled.

Seems like Feri has a crush on Luciana, Laurel said in her heart as her eyes unintentionally looked the other way, which turned out to be Leo and Arnold were there looking at her. Seeing Laurel looking at them, Leo immediately raised the glass in his right hand towards Laurel with a smile, while Arnold preferred to smile but with a slightly reddened face because of a little misbehavior.

However, although Laurel rejected it politely but still there is a sense of disappointment in receiving rejection from the beautiful girl, but she remains determined to remain hopeful until Laurel really finds the man she loves, as per the Javanese saying, before the yellow janur curved (this proverb is often found in the Java area, meaning before any marriage can still occur, it can still happen, still cornering or still having a chance to get it), there is still a chance, and Arnold decides to keep hoping and trying before there is an invitation to Laurel's wedding with another man.

From the other direction Dave looked at the incident while taking a deep breath, a moment later he gave the code to Mira to get closer to him, then whispered something in Mira's ear that immediately nodded her head, after that Mira immediately rushed to carry out Dave's orders.

Since the beginning of Laurel comes the eyes of Dave never separated from the figure of the girl, but every time he plans to get closer to her always just the other friends crowded nearby.

Dave held his breath, though, since the arrival of Laurel in the hospital is undeniable indeed the girl brings a cheerful atmosphere in every presence because her face is besides beautiful but also always cheerful and full of smiles, it makes it easy for others to like her, including Dave who has fallen in love with Laurel since her first sight, even when she first met Laurel at her father's funeral. Many people do not believe in love at first sight, but for Dave, since the first time he saw the figure of Laurel that day, although in a dress all black and puffy eyes due to crying too long, even in the face of the eyes, his heart had completely fallen on the girl, his heart was always pounding when he was nearby, even just imagining his face or seeing a photo of Laurel always made his heart beat hard, he said, and he had never once felt the same way towards another girl.

Dave recalled that day, almost 8 years ago, when he heard that Mr. Purnama Tanputra died, the first thing he thought about was how to help the family of Mr. Purnama Tanputra who was devastated by the betrayal committed by Tuan Purnama's brother-in-law which also involved uncle Dave's Bladder. Laurel's family who own a large canned food company is one of the companies that cooperate with Shaw Coporation which is owned by the Dave family.

When Dave who had just graduated from medicine generally received orders from his parents to help at Shaw Corporation. At first Dave insisted on concentrating on becoming a doctor, not interested in continuing his family business, until he heard that his uncle was cheating by falsifying raw materials sent to the company owned by Purnama Tanputra, which he was not interested in, working together with brother-in-law Purnama, resulting in failed products and the occurrence of cases of several fatal poisoning, which had brought Purnama into the legal realm because it faced many demands from a number of victims who felt aggrieved, making Tanputra company suffered a big loss, not to mention the financial leak that was apparently done by brother-in-law Purnama and uncle Dave, Dave, within months the company declared bankruptcy and most of its assets were seized.

Initially unaware that a mistake was made by Purnama's brother-in-law Tanputra and Augistin Shaw's younger brother (father Dave) himself, Augistin harshly orders Shaw not to forgive Tanputra's company, because Augistin assumes that all of those events have shamed Shaw Corporation and all are the responsibility of Purnama Tanputra. After Augistin Shaw found out about the truth it was too late, the depressed Purnama Tanputra died of a heart attack.

When he comes to Tanputra's Purnama cemetery, Dave wants to meet with the family he left behind and offer them help, but as she looked at the figure of a beautiful girl who was crying while hugging another younger-looking girl and a middle-aged woman, she was, suddenly, Dave's eyes could no longer be separated from continuing to look at the girl. And when he got the info that the girl was named Laurel Tanputra, the daughter of Mr. Tanputra Purnama at that time Dave was more determined to marry the girl no matter what, to be together and protect the girl.

It was then clearly Dave remembered, he accepted his family's request to jump into the Shaw family business on condition that he be allowed to recover the good name of Mr. Purnama Tanputra, who was not a good name, married Laurel Tanputra and still allowed to become a doctor in the future can manage Anugrah Indonesia hospital which is one of the hospitals owned by his family as well, because at that time Dave also knew that becoming a doctor was also Laurel's biggest dream.

Initially Augistin Shaw let Dave's decision to marry Laurel to be able to atone for a bit of his guilt to Purnama Tanputra, and if Laurel refused to marry Dave, he would be forced to marry her, Augistin is already preparing to give another form of assistance to the Purnama family and hopes easily Dave will meet another girl who will make him fall in love, but unexpectedly her son had completely fallen in love with Laurel so much so that when Laurel left him on her wedding day, just that time he saw his first child who had always looked mature and strong crying silently in front of a photo of Laurel and for days not out of his room, he said, even since two years ago after graduating from neurosurgery and returning to Indonesia Dave prefers to live in the house of the relics of Laurel's parents who he initially will occupy with Laurel after them getting married is compared to going back to her parents' own house.

Everyone immediately looked at each other to hear the announcement from the MC that tonight there is a special event, Dave will dance with one of the female employees who are still single. Determination of who can dance with Dave is done by taking the ball found on the fishbowl (a round-shaped glass aquarium, usually for drawing).

"May my name come out,"

"May I,"

"If I hadn't been married, I would have been,"

All the female employees who felt single immediately whispered to each other, expecting their names that came out as lottery winners to be able to dance with Dave, even though in fact most of them could not dance, he said, but who would be willing to miss the opportunity to be able to dance with their boss whose good looks beat the artists.

"The lucky ones to dance with our handsome host on his birthday tonight are....Laurel Tanputra," Laurel and Nia are busy fixing the loose ribbon ties in Lusiana's dress, so that when Laurel's name is mentioned as the name of the winner attached to the red ball held by Dave, and his name was mentioned by the MC up front, Laurel didn't notice him at all.
