Prologues

How are you doing?

Sorry if I missed you this morning.

Sorry if I still cry for you.

I don't know...

It all feels so stifling.

I tried so many times to forget.

But my sincerity is still a mess

As if they are reluctant to provide support

It will break and break me that is scattered.

Excuse me...

Not that I meant begging for attention.

Quite quiet and looking from a distance.

Don't mind me wallowing in pain.

And there's no need to feel pity

Because I'm used to making peace with defeat.

***Have not been in contact with Adam for a few days, he did not even open the message Adam sent to him . He also did not answer the phone of the man. Today is the second day he works in his new office, and tomorrow is his dialysis schedule which means he comes to the office after lunch hour.

This morning Dena deliberately came to the office early so that she could immediately complete the target Report that she had to work on . Yesterday his first day of work he had already studied some Company documents. And as in her general new hires, Dena should be able to quickly socialize with her co-workers .

But it turns out that his nature is a little closed has not changed until now . Dena just say hello to the stale bases of other employees, introduce yourself briefly just by mentioning his name. He does not want to have close friends, for him a place to work is just a place to pursue a career. You don't have to have friends or just friends for lunch. He is comfortable in his solitude.

After all, there is a good thing that he is also not too close to other colleagues, he does not need to tell at length about his life outside of this job.

Dena is already struggling with the laptop screen in front of her. A stack of files ready for him to do today.

" Dena, if you need help or something you don't understand please ask me" said a woman named Puji who is a teammate of Dena in the finance division .

Dena nodded only retorting with a thin smile. From the first acquaintance, Puji indeed seemed to offer friendship to Dena. But it seems that Dena is still not interested in having a close friend. He just needs to know Puji as a co-worker.

" I heard from our Mr. Erwin HRD, every Wednesday you are allowed to come to the office after lunch, is that true?", Praise asked while tidying up some files on her desk. It just so happened that he was sitting right next to Dena .

Dena felt no need at length to answer the question Praise, again he just nodded and remained focused staring at the laptop screen .

" If I may know, what happened to your Wednesday?", asked Puji trying to investigate.

Dena seems to dislike the question, she does not like others too far to interfere in her personal affairs .

" I'm sorry, I don't think I need to answer your question on this one" Dena said.

Praise the small smile, he understood the character of this new co-worker.

" Well Den doesn't matter if you don't want to answer"

" I'd be happy if you needed my help later"

" Or maybe later at noon you'll eat in the cafeteria with me", Praise is still trying to be nice to Dena

Dena is not happy if she has to refuse Puji's offer to have lunch together.

" Okay, take me to the cafeteria with you", Dena finally accepted a friendly offer from Puji even though she wasn't sure tomorrow if she could still open up for a friendship.

Praise to pull Dena's hand, invite rushed to the cafeteria on the ground floor of the Company building. Dena actually felt a little uncomfortable with the existence of Puji. He had always been accustomed to being alone at lunchtime, enjoying all his solitude. He only felt comfort when he was with the man, but what was the power of all this it felt he could not continue. He realized he was not who in the man's life.

" Sit here", praise the appointment of one long bench for the two of them.

" What do you want to eat?, let me take it, you look tired like", Praise again offers a sincere friendship.

Dena also realized her exhausted body, her physical condition is not as strong as it used to be. But his co-workers around him would not think that he was a patient with kidney failure. His face does not look like a person with a chronic disease, he still looks even the most beautiful compared to his female colleagues in the office.

Puji brought two plates of rice, handed one plate to Dena with a menu of sweet sour chicken and vegetable soup according to Dena's request.

" Eat, your face is a little pale" Puji said, giving a bottle of mineral water.

" Thank you", Dena finally let out a voice as well after just nodding and shaking her head in response to Puji's question.

They finished the lunch menu in an instant, Dena took out a small medicine box from inside her bag. He downed the drug with a routine every day. Two grains of hypertension pills, one pill to stabilize phosphorus in the blood, one grain of sodium bicarbonate, and several grains of vitamins for the health of his body.

Praise gawking saw that much medicine had to be taken by Dena.

" That's what medicine, you're sick" Praise holding Dena's forehead.

Again just a head bobble from Dena.

Praise a little more already able to read the attitude of Dena who is indeed closed. He didn't force Dena to answer his questions.

" Dena, look at the man sitting across from there", Puji shifted the subject and pointed to a man wearing a blue shirt.

Dena just turned her head and did not respond to Praise.

" His name is Ardian, he's our age", Puji still continues his conversation even though Dena did not ask what.

" What's important to me, I don't care who he is" Dena said in her heart.

" Many of the female employees here are crazy about her, some try to get close but no one has managed to get her heart" Puji continued chattering.

Dena looked at the man named Ardian, at a glance he was indeed handsome. His ideal body posture for a man, he looks neat, sharp nose with thick eyebrows.

" Why did I become shadowed by black eyebrows and lentic lashes of Mas Adam".

" Are you interested in him?", Praise the surprising Dena who was still attached to look at Adrian.

Blaring again....

" Why am I talking to a mute woman anyway", Grumbled Puji inwardly.

" Can he just nod and shake?"..

" If my face is as beautiful as yours, I will confidently approach her hehehe' , Praise chuckled while whispering in Dena's ear.

Adrian seemed to realize that he was being noticed by these two women. He stared back at Puji and Dena.

Dena was calm and indifferent, because to her the man was ordinary. While Puji put on his sweetest smile to Adrian, Puji's hand pinched the small arm of Dena.

" Look, he's staring at us... Ehh seems to be staring at you", said Puji.

Dena did not respond to Puji's words, she got up from her seat and grabbed her bag.

" Let's go back to the room".

Praise followed Dena from behind, while continuing to glance at Adrian who also did not take his eyes off them.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, indicating that the Company's normal business hours are over. There are some employees who are still overtime and continue their work. Dena was done with her report report, she wanted to quickly go home. I can't wait to lay her body on the bed. His legs look a little swollen due to being in a sitting position for too long.

He drove his vehicle, passing the hospital where he regularly visited . When passing through it, what first appeared in his mind was the look on the face of the man he had been ignoring for several days.

How will the two of them behave tomorrow when they meet? Does Dena still persist with her indifferent attitude? Wait for her continuation in her next episode ya🙂🙂
