Awkwardly, that is the right word to describe the current state of affairs. A lot of skewed speculation accidentally arises from each person under these circumstances.
Even though he didn't really know what to do now, he was really surprised. Why should there be such a coincidence?
Five people who know each other and try to avoid each other turned out to be together in the same place, like an impromptu reunion.
Merisa never thought she would meet the people she avoided, Niko and Ernest, while Leon did not expect to meet Stefani.
Isn't this enough.
Looking at it for five minutes doesn't feel more awkward.
"How are you?" Leon tried to melt the atmosphere but it seemed like his simple sentence throw had not been able to do that.
Moreover, coupled with his actions that try to position Merisa reached him make the situation more full of question marks.
"How are you, Ernest?" Leon bowed his body slightly, greeting Merisa's cousin who was staring at them in full search.
Niko laughed, trying to help Leon melt the atmosphere before everything felt awkward.
"We haven't seen each other in a long time, Leon." Lying, Niko is lying. Because just two days ago he met with the youngest Alvalendra.
"Like a reunion." Crisp laugh.
"But it's not a nice reunion because we're in front of the toilet right?" Stefani chimed in, both trying to melt the atmosphere.
While Merisa herself, she just fell silent clumsy and unconsciously increasingly tightened her hand grip on Leon's back to overcome her nervousness from Ernest's sight as if asking for more explanation.
"Alvalendra, can I talk to Merisa?" Ernest Pinta.
Sighs surprised. He quickly looked at Leon's onyx, with no idea what it was. As if understanding Leon heaved a heavy sigh. He let go of the grip of his hand that grasped Merisa's wrist.
"Finish your business." Leon whispered.
"…just one week."
…
The warm rays of the morning sun had just entered the room, illuminating it with a reddish dawn. The sound of the clock ticking was also the sound of pen beats that went hand in hand breaking the silence in Leon's work room.
Feeling bored, he stopped the tap of his pen. Put it on the desk. He closed his eyes, trying to relax in his chair.
"Why not call!" He growls. His jaw is tightly pouched.
"Ahgggg! Why is this so!" He curses while shuffling his proud, frustrated hair.
The knocking of the door distracted him.
"Lake in!"
A man with round glasses walked into his study. He was indifferent when the man who became his personal secretary bowed his body while greeting him.
"Sir, it's time we go."
Leon clucked in annoyance.
"A little while." Leon glanced at the phone at the corner of his desk, hoping it would ring.
"We can be late, sir."
Again Leon snarled.
"I know, Fer." Leon got up from his chair following Ferdi's direction and walked out of his study.
…
Leon looks bored. He kept looking out the car window. He continued to sigh, and then rested his head on the window.
"Are you all right, sir?" Ferdi could only be concerned about the circumstances of his employer who from the beginning was just silent lethargic without the passion to work as before. Feeling unnoticed, Kabuto finally could only sigh.
"You'd better call him."
Leon immediately turned to look at Ferdi. With a puzzled and surprised expression, he saw Ferdi who was just glaring to answer his master's expression.
"Everybody in the house knows this. Why surprised?"
"What looks clear?" Leon asked in a whisper.
Ferdi just nodded. Then followed by a heavy sigh from Leon.
"But why didn't he feel it?" Leon looked out the car window.
"Miss is a person who does not dare to draw his own conclusions especially in terms of love. He will not dare to think or fantasize anything that his glasses think is not clear or can be said impossible." Ferdi just delikan shoulder, then switch again on the sheets of paper in his lap.
Leon just clucked slowly.
"You know him better, Ferdi. Don't you pay attention to her."
Again Ferdi let out a tired breath.
"It's just a suggestion.." He turned the sheet over. ". as a friend."
"You think I'm a fool never said that." Leon's jaw clenched tightly, holding something back.
"You better concentrate on the shareholders meeting. They will definitely ask about the production of our latest car that was delayed even though we already know who did it but I think they still question it. I'm still sniffing at their intention to shift your position. I think one of them is the brains of the theft of our new product design." Ferdi said quickly.
"Hm, I get it." Leon breathed back.
Arriving at the Office, Leon quickly entered the meeting room that has been filled by all other shareholders.
They stared at his presence warily as if he was a great threat that would destroy them.
As the leader of the meeting, Leon sat in an empty chair at the end of the table while Ferdi sat in the chair behind Leon along with two other Leon secretary.
"We're starting the meeting."
Leon's speech becomes the beginning in the non-meeting. Ferdi and Leon's other secretaries swiftly gave each shareholder a single volume of paper.
They looked carefully at the contents of the papers.
The situation looked tense, there were some of them whispering. While Leon was just staring straight ahead, his mind was floating everywhere. Actually this is not a good thing in the middle of a precarious situation like this his mind is not focused.
This makes Ferdi can only be anxious to think about the fate of Alvalendra Corp.
The questions started rolling. As Ferdi said a moment ago. Shareholders are starting to question the issue of production delays for cars that should have been launched in the market late last fall. Actually, this problem has been resolved at the beginning of summer but they are still concerned about this while the culprit has been detained and the loss problem borne by the company is not large because the production is immediately stopped. Pros and cons continue to occur without direct confirmation from Leon. It's not that there's just a lazy Leon to talk too much. He just rested his head on his right hand on the table while looking down at the table, more precisely on his phone that he hid under the table. His face looks tense.
"Heh, it should not be necessary for young people to do adult work." Said an old man while looking down on Leon. The other shareholders who did not support Leon's leadership could only grin with satisfaction. While the pro Leon was as strong as possible to hold back emotions.
The situation was getting boisterous, they were arguing with each other to the point that they stood up from their stools and challenged each other.
"Enough!" Leon yells.
"Heh, you're no different than a Kindergarten kid." He grinned, showing off his smile that could be said to be creepy. His eyes sharply looked at one by one the share holders. Make them have to bother to gulp his saliva.
Leon rested his chin on both of his hands.
"I assure you, none of them will live a quiet life if they are involved in this." Cold sweat poured from their foreheads. The atmosphere was getting tense.
Shut up for a moment, no one dared to speak even making the slightest sound.
"I think everything is enough. My meeting's closed." Leon walked out. Open the door and slam it. Everything in the room could only be shocked in shock without them consciously closing their eyes. Silent.
"I can't believe he's getting any more like his father ."
…
Blams…
The door to the President's room was closed hard. His voice that was like a blast shocked all the Leon secretary who was in front of his study. They shook their heads and looked at each other with horror faces.
While Ferdi had always followed Leon, now did not dare to be within a radius of two meters from his master.
There was a scream followed by the sound of impact of objects breaking out from inside Leon's room. After that not long Leon came out in a hurry. Ferdi immediately stepped out of the way, trying to avoid his already visible employer with a very emotional face.
I don't know what happened to that master. Is this because of the shareholder meeting that just took place?
But after thinking about what this is not too excessive because previously such things have often been natural and all this time is fine.
Spurred by curiosity, Ferdi finally looked into the room of the president. Look what is the cause of the sound of broken objects that were heard a moment ago. Leon's usual cell phone was lying on the floor with a broken battery and some parts of his phone were destroyed.
He could only pray that good things would happen to Leon.
…
"Sister, what are you doing?"
A woman with shoulder-length brown hair was watching the woman in front of her who was busy packing her clothes into her red backpack.
"He's only given me a week off, Al . So I have to go home now." The woman called 'Sister' only smiled gently while packing her things, which Alya only responded with an understanding nod.
" Leon Alvalendra is it?"
I only nodded.
"Do Ernest's father and brother know?"
Merely Merisa was silent. He forgot that he had not said that he would start returning to the Mansion today.
"Emm. i-it…"
Drrr…
The sound of the vibration of her phone distracts Meeisa. He took the cell phone lying on the bed. His face turned radiant after he knew who the person who sent him the email was. Dark_blue, her mayhem world friend. People always send emails every day.
Dark_blue: What are you doing?
Merisa quickly immediately replied to her may world friend's email.
E.L: I'm packing. What are you doing?
It was not until a few minutes that this email was answered.
Dark_blue : Listening to the babbling of old people. How's it going?
E.L: Good. You know, I'm back at my parents' house. If you were here, I met him yesterday.
Dark_blue : who?
E.L: emmm.
Dark_blue : then?
E.L: It feels strange to see her with her woman.
Unlike previous emails that are always answered quickly, this one should wait about five minutes.
Lisa lets Alya help her, folds her clothes and puts them in her backpack.
Dark_blue: What about your boss?
He felt his forehead reading the email from his friend. This is the number of times his friend has asked about his boss.
E.L: That is?
Dark_blue : Forget it.
E.L: you're confusing.
Dark_blue : cc…
Merisa put her phone in bed, then continued her activities that had been delayed.
Drrr..
Merisa's phone is back vibrating.
Dark_blue: How do you feel, you still like your first love?
Sense of silence, not flinching. He tried to think about it. Slowly his finger started typing something.
E.L: Yeah, I still like it.
She put her phone in her lap. He was wasting his breath. Her eyes glanced at the ceiling of her room. Instantly he drowned. Somehow after replying to his email, his feelings became uneasy. His chest cavity is like a hole.
"You all right, brother?" alya was worried
I only shook my head weakly
To be continue ....
hope not boring yes ⁇ 😊
