Now Arsen and Zacky are at his doorstep. The two of them had been neatly dressed in a suit that was both dark in color, adding an impression of prestige to themselves. Some of the people who saw him looked on with amazed looks. Even more so with the more recent Novian appearance. People felt that he had been more alive after the holidays.
Before entering, they should scan their faces into a protective device next to the door. In addition to absent employees, the tool is also directly connected to the automatic door. If it has been detected that the person is an employee it will be immediately open, then to go in and out of the office there is also a body protection tool that is in accordance with the employees.
"Wahh Ky, I didn't expect that our office had such a super-sophisticated tool." Arsen looked at the protective device with a face full of amazement. He fumbled the machine without stopping. The passers-by also looked at him with a gaze that was difficult to decipher. Is he the new guy who never saw this machine? Or is he a village?
"Not only our office, but every company in Indonesia has advanced tools like this. Even small shops have buyer protectors." Arsen who heard Zacky's words finally cursed himself. He looks stupid, doesn't he? It was his own fault yesterday when he came out with Ryan and Zacky not paying attention around. Even he was unaware of the protector in the cafe blue yesterday.
They both finally entered the office and were welcomed by other employees. As he walked into the room that had been directed by Zacky himself got a greeting from each employee. It made Arsen feel awkward on his own. He was in a hurry to enter his room. Above the front door of the room is the inscription 'General Manager' which means it is the room.
Arsen enters his room followed by Zacky. Arsen looked around in amazement. There was a table in front of him and on the table was a name tag that read 'GM: NOVIAN B.' which he believed was his desk that he was going to sit on.
"Alright Nov, you've reached your room and I'll go back to my own. You remember what I explained yesterday at home, right?" Before leaving Zacky asked what he had explained yesterday at home with Novian. He was afraid that his best friend would become like a fool. He did not tell other employees that Novian was in an accident. He only told them that Novian was on leave due to family matters.
Arsen nodded and smiled. But before Zacky opened the door, he turned back to Arsen and asked, "If you need anything you can call me. The phone next to you is directly connected to my room." After saying that, Zacky came out to return to his room.
After Zacky left, Arsen sat in his chair. He was still confused as to what to do there. This is his first day of work but has become a superior for employees. At his desk there were also no documents he had to check. Finally he took out a Novian mirror from inside his bag.
"Hm." Novian cleared first. He knew that this person in front of him would take him to work. Earlier this morning it was noisy that Novian did not want to come to the office because he was lazy. He can't do anything there anyway. He's just a mirror, remember that.
"Dong Nov is angry." Arsen tried to make Novian stop being angry at him. Novian just rolled his lazy eyes.
"I'm really surprised by all this. Advanced tools that waahhh really beyond reason. In 2023 there's nothing like this." Arsen began to speak like a person who had just first seen everything in front of him. But it was the first for him, wasn't it? Novian still faithfully listened lazily.
Suddenly Arsen remembered something. "Ah wait I want to ask you something." Novian just cleared his throat in response to Arsen. He is surprised by her, Arsen is getting chatty and talkative like Zacky after a few days together.
"This company is a print media company. Well in this sophisticated year, is there still anyone who wants to read the newspaper?"
"Hey, years can grow and tools can get more sophisticated. But our culture of reading must be improved. Moreover, parents who like to read newspapers are still many." Novian is furious with Arsen. About the world is already sophisticated even think that no one wants to read the news in the newspaper. What's worse, he just thinks that Herrera Times is a print media company? Ohh his mind is so shallow viewers.
"One more Arsen, this company is not just printing news. But also airing the news and the press is very supportive we understand?" Arsen nodded and smiled clumsyly. Because he doesn't know about all this. After all, he is just a young man who wrestles the literary world to be a good editor. Though he was told to learn from newspapers before becoming a book editor at his om company. Do not be surprised by his work that only graduated from High School has become a book editor. Arsen is very fond of literature but lazy to learn literature, strange is not it. But that's Arsen, he thinks he's smart. He instead asked his om to teach about the ins and outs of editors and basic lessons. As a result, because he knew that Arsen was talented, he just adopted as a junior editor at his company. The inside path is really magic.
"One more Nov, being a manager is not young, especially if you were just a high school graduate, right? Did you cross an insider's path like mine?" Arsen smiled mischievously seductively Novian.
"I'm not like you stupid." Novian held it for a moment.
"I became a manager because of my own efforts. I've been training in non-formal journalism, and it just so happens that this company accepts requirements other than graduate degrees. Then, as long as I work here my job prospects are good according to the superiors. Be my position." Then he threw his breath away. Really explaining something like this made him tired. Arsen is just ria. He had been embarrassed before thinking that Novian lines insiders working here.
Tok tok tok tok
Suddenly, a knock on the door in his room sounded. Arsen tells him to come in and it turns out that he is Zacky, as his assistant. He entered while carrying some documents in his hand.
"Nov, this requires your signature, you can check it first." Zacky handed over some of the documents and read them. Zacky was waiting for him while standing in front of him. Unintentionally his eyes were turned away by Novian's mirror on the table. Oh Goddess Fortuna Arsen forgot to hide that mirror.
"Tumben once you bring Nov's mirror, it's a woman's mirror, right? Why is it obsolete." Arsen was surprised to hear that. He gasped, he immediately before answering Zacky he immediately signed the papers quickly.
"A-ah it's nothing, it's just a mirror of my mother's legacy." Arsen handed back the documents he had signed and immediately put the mirror into his desk drawer. Novian only snorted in annoyance at having been put in a drawer just like that by Arsen. Zacky just agreed and walked out of Novian's room.
"Hufffttt thankfully "Arsen breathed a sigh of relief Zacky did not suspect anything. He took back Novian's mirror in his drawer.
"Stupid." As soon as he saw Novian himself instantly accepted the curse.
"Are you no other reason? You said it was my mother's legacy? O God.....Zacky and I have been best friends since High School, where maybe he doesn't know about my valuables." Novian snorted after saying that. Because it's true he never hid anything from Ryan and Zacky, unless it was a personal matter that he thought was very personal.
"You didn't say it yourself." Arsenpun no less pouting. Because he doesn't know that. Novian hasn't told him the whole thing, has he? Don't blame Arsen.
Not wanting to dizzy himself at the thought of that, Zacky immediately reached into his pocket to pick up his phone to contact Ryan.
"Hello, Yan."
"What's calling me during work hours?"
"I want to ask you something."
"Hmm, what?"
"Have you ever seen that old mirror that Novian was carrying?"
"Old mirror? Never, why?"
"I saw it earlier, he said that it belonged to his late mother. But it's never been seen, has it?"
"Maybe it's true."
"But-"
"Haven't bothered me to work."
Bip-----
Ryan decided on the call unilaterally. Zacky grunted in what Ryan was doing. Then he put his postel on the table. He thought back to that. Is it possible that it is true? Novian deliberately did not show the mirror for years because he felt most valuable? Ah never mind, just think about it later, right now he is busy to take care of his work.
It was late afternoon and the clock had shown at 16:00 AM local time, it was a sign that the working hours had been completed and the time for Arsen to return home. He immediately packed his things, not to forget he also put the Novian Mirror in his bag. He stands up and intends to go to Zacky's room. Just as he was about to open the door, Zacky had appeared in front of him. They also went to the parking lot.
"Ah Nov, do you want to stop by somewhere or do you need something for dinner tonight?" Zacky asked Arsen shortly after arriving in front of their car. Arsen did not answer until they got into the car.
"I don't think it's necessary, don't we have a famous restaurant boss at home?" Arsen smiled saying that, even Zacky who understood finally laughed, even Arsen also laughed with what he said.
"It must be that she sneezed there."Zacky said it didn't escape his laughter. While turning their car out of the parking lot and rushed home.
While in a restaurant, there was a man who was discussing with some employees there. Who else if not Ryan. But suddenly he- "Hacchhiiwww~" Yes he sneezed.
"Oh, someone must be cursing me right now." He muttered to himself as he rubbed his slightly itchy nose from sneezing earlier.
