Offices

"Eh, don't know. Mmm, am I just going with you?"

Max scratched his non-itchy head. "Yes already." Indeed today the man had to attend an afternoon meeting and meeting with a client.

------------+++----------

Hades has stood firm on the shore. Thanks to the potion pill he swallowed, the man now had legs and could step like a human.

He stole the sun-dried fisherman's clothes and went to a nearby clothing store. The man then bought clothes and threw away the fisherman's clothes, so that people would not accuse him of being a thief.

Hades then searches for information about Miriam around the beach. What he knew then was that there was a girl stranded on the beach but her hair color was not red but white.

The man was surprised. She was sure it was Miriam, but why did her hair turn white? What the hell happened to him?

--------+++-------

Miriam was astonished to see the large building she entered. There, a lot of people are working. He followed Max on the elevator and saw the way the man operated the elevator. He was again amazed to see a door that could open and close by itself.

Arriving at the man's office, Max meets his secretary. "Hows it? What time are we meeting?"

"Half an hour, sir."

"Mk." The man glanced at his secretary's desk which still contained the files. "Have you prepared the files for the meeting?"

"Already, sir."

"Mmh, then, can you help me for a second."

"Eh, yes, sir?"

Max pulls Miriam closer. "This is my cousin, she can't read, can you teach her?"

The secretary glanced at Miriam who had been following Max. He was surprised, the girl who looks modern even turned out to be unable to read and write.

The girl also looked confused. "I? Read, write?" Miriam pointed to herself.

"Eh, yes, Lita. It's hard for you to go anywhere if you can't read. Please study with my secretary, will you?"

"Eh ...." The girl did not know how to answer.

"Good, sir." The secretary took the girl to sit on the sofa and brought her a paper and pen. It was there that Miriam learned to write and read with Max's secretary.

The man left her and entered the room. Half an hour later, Max came out. "Come, we'll meet."

His secretary then prepared the files for the meeting later.

"You can be here by yourself?"

"Eh?"

Max is confused. "I want a meeting. How about you wait for me in my study? My meeting won't be long."

"Oh, yes." Miriam then waits by sitting on Max's couch. At first he only looked around as far as the direction his range looked, but then he started to get bored. He stood up and began to check.

The girl came to Max's desk. He noticed all sorts of things on his desk.

There's a business card storage box. He checked the cards. A-la-ma-a. Ah, address. I can read it. The girl smiled cheerfully.

He then started reading Max's files. La-po-ranian. Oh, this is a report.

Unintentionally, he nudged the stamp and fell.

Uh, what is this?

A thin box opened and a stamp of wood fell beside it. Whatisthis?

Miriam took both of them, but when she touched the box, she touched the black part of the inkbed so that the fingers turned black.

"Eh, what is this?" Miriam tried to rub her index finger on the ink and her index finger turned black. "Well, is this squid ink? Or Octopus? Mmm, I think it's squid ink."

Along with that, Max came. He did not find Miriam in his room. "Eh, Lita?"

Miriam took her head out from the side of Max's desk. "Sister Max, here. I found squid ink!"

"What?"

"Astaghfirullah alazim." The man was holding him. He doesn't know how to comment on it. "Come, Lita here. You wash your hands first."

Max is forced to take Lita to the woman's toilet to wash her inked hands with soap. He began to tell. "That's not squid ink. It's used for file stamps."

"Oh." Although the girl did not understand but she knew, she had mistaken. "Sorry."

Max only sighed, but the girl was glad the man was trying to clear his hand of the ink marks. Although Max recognizes her as a cousin to his secretary, Miriam is not angry. He could understand because he already had a girlfriend. At least slowly he will like me, Miriam said.

----------+++--------

Hades arrived at a luxurious house. He got the address from people at the clinic who told him that the girl had been taken by a Caucasian man who lived in the house.

Hades certainly can read but Miriam is not because as a child Miriam was more interested in witchcraft than science because with that she can work and not bother others.

Hades then asked the security guard who was guarding at the post beside the fence. "Eh, is the owner there?"

"Go away, sir."

"Where?"

"Work."

"Are there no other residents?"

The security guard looked at Hades, from the tip of the foot to the tip of the head. "Sorry, who is this father?"

"Oh, I happen to know Mr. Maximilian. When did he come home?"

Hearing Hades know the owner of the house, the security guard began to sound friendly. "It's usually night, but not necessarily. You better call me to make an agreement."

"Em, a girl ...." Hades doesn't know how to explain it.

"Oh, the girl he brought? Yes, make dizzy workers at home. That's why Mr. Max is taking her to the office right now."

"Take him to the office?"

"Yes, we can't ban guests, sir. He sat on the balcony railing of his room upstairs and climbed a tree. Well, I was horrified to fall, so I had to call Mr. Max to take care of it."

Hades laughing. He can confirm it Miriam because only the girl is unique, because always do everything according to the will of his heart. "Oh, sorry. I didn't mean to laugh at you."

"Yes, it's okay, sir."

--------+++---------

When the guest came in, Lita smiled. He saw something that no one else could see. He who sat in Max's work chair while Max stood up greeted the two guests who came.

"Please sit down, Mr. Good," said Max kindly.

"Thank you, Mr. Max."

They sat on the sofa and faced each other.

"As I said on the phone. I see your efforts are very good, therefore I offer cooperation."

"really? It's an honor" Max said proudly.

Miriam didn't notice that. He was focusing on seeing something hovering above the heads of the three men. Pocong, that guy's keeping a pocong.

The girl grinned at the pocong. Actually the pocong also felt a sign of danger when he saw Miriam, because he saw the girl could see her form.

Miriam came to Max. He knew the pocong was in charge of getting Max interested in working with the guy, and it started to work.

The girl brought her face closer to Max.

"What's wrong?" ask Max.

"They have a pocong, sister," whispered Miriam into the man's ear.

The man frowned and turned his head with an angry face. "Lita!" He immediately led the girl to the door, and led her out. "You better be outside, don't bother me. I'll talk to you later." The man tried to hold back his anger and then closed the door.

Miriam was so upset that she stomped her feet. The man doesn't believe him. Secretary Max, who saw the incident, just looked at it, did not want to comment.

The girl thought fast. He has to help Max, but he can't do it in that room because there's Max's secretary. Ah, toilet! Miriam ran there.
