Chapter 10
I woke up from my deep sleep after thinking about the sweet memories with Inara when she was still beautiful.
Unaware it was morning, I fell asleep all night. I took a shower and prepared to go to the office.
I got out of my room and went down the stairs. It looks like my mom is preparing breakfast.
"Mom why don't you wake me up, it's really noon." I protested to Mom because she I got up late.
"You here, the mother of earlier was clasped at the door but you didn't answer. I'm letting it go, like a child you still have to wake up."
I snatched the bread and the warm tea. Then I ignored my mother's words and went straight away.
"Loh Adi, this is the fried rice you haven't eaten."
"No, ma'am, I'm late."
Then I hurried to start the car, and gas hit the traffic jam.
Soon I finally arrived at the office where I worked. I walked to my chair casually. But, there is something strange about the attitude of the employees today.
They look so tense and serious with their respective laptops. They usually work while occasionally joking and chatting.
"Heh, what's up. How about a tense gini."
I asked one of my friends who was sitting next to me.
"Don't you know that today a new CEO has arrived?" He spoke in whispers to me.
"Keep, why don't we make a mistake, why do we have to be so tense."
"The "CEO is now more assertive, not like it used to be. He just came from London. And just entering the room he immediately set up and discipline the noisy employees, and the slightest mistake he immediately pointed and threatened to be fired."
I'm a little fuss, it's just fitting that all the employees here are silent without a sound. Turns out that's the reason. I was curious about the new CEO. How hard is he.
When you have just opened a laptop, you want to do the usual tasks.
Suddenly came a handsome man with perfect stature, his nose pointed and pure white like a Korean artist. But I don't think he's more handsome than me.
He walked with a cold gaze, behind him was an assistant who always followed him wherever he went.
They walked past all the employees who were sitting at their desks. The employees looked so disinclined by the new CEO.
"Heh, that." I nudged one of the friends who was beside me while pointing towards the CEO who was walking out of it.
"Yes" He whispered.
"Other times, don't keep whispering."
"Have, you don't have a chat later found out other superiors can be berabe again."
I refocused on my work because my friend was scared because I kept talking, but usually it was like this. Why are they overreacting.
When the break hour comes. I hurriedly headed to the food stall because my stomach was already roaring because I only gave him a piece of bread this morning.
"Mom Mar... The usual."
I ordered the food I used to order to Miss Maryam. He immediately made it without asking again because I had subscribed there.
"This is the Adi mas white rice with chicken meat and the favorite aurap mas Adi, do not forget the fertilizer, please." Ms. Maryam offered me one plate of my order with the full description as usual.
"Thank you bumar..." I took a plate with the rice
I devoured it with a spirit without pause. If in the past, my way of eating is like a starving ape. My mouth is full of food.
"Pelan-gelan to mas Adi. rich people who starve alone."
Suddenly Miss Maryam came to give me a glass of water and made me choke.
uhuk...
"No, the water was drunk."
I immediately grabbed the water in Miss Maryam's hand.
"Huh.. Ma'am Mar ngagetin, what if I choke to death? Ma Mar wants responsibility."
"Lagian mas Adi tuh if you eat slowly, already rich people do not eat a century."
"Why bad luck anyway. A lot of thoughts Adi. Don't think too much too old soon."
I don't mind his words. I continued to devour my food until there was not a single seed left, then I was about to pay for it because the break was ten minutes away.
"Mom Mar, the money. The price didn't go up, did it?." Ask me a joke.
"Yes not so much. Play time goes up."
"Oh yeah, did Miss Mar hear there's a new CEO on the inside?." He asked what the young women were asking today.
"Yes, why? Mar's mom has a crush?"
"Well, if he wants mah yes I also want to anyway mas Adi. Moreover, he's a handsome rich Korean artist." Bu Mar put on his little face while winking a wink that made me so shudder amusedly.
"Snake." I said as it passed.
"E-eh, but mas Adi. You do not occasionally bring your wife to this office. His wife will be smitten again with the CEO's master."
"Hahaha even if my wife is smitten, most new CEO is vomiting look at my wife's face, where want her to be my wife , I just can't stand the same appearance."
I laughed out loud imagining that my wife was really smitten with the new CEO. Maybe he'll play pellets to get it.
"Hhhh you, if my own wife is cheating anyway." Ma Mar poked me because I didn't stop laughing.
"Huh no, besides I also want a divorce with my poor wife, and soon I will marry the beautiful girl of my heart." I stretched my hand out the sign I was imagining my happiness later.
"Allah, Istighfar mas.masa wants to leave his wife for a new, more beautiful woman. Did mas Adi give his capital for his wife to take care of herself to the salon? Otherwise, don't worry about having a new, prettier wife anyway."
"Of course, ma'am, I gave her a million for a month. She cannot beautify herself at home. Some children are also just one, homework is not too much too. Time can not take care of yourself or just to the salon really hair."
"Hahh, a million a month. That money is enough for household needs. Not electricity, school fees, water costs and others are sudden. After all, the cost of self-care is expensive mas Adi. Ma'am Mar also if the money is so much only can buy soap face only, where can go to the salon."
"Listen yes Adi. If you are married again and you are still looking for perfection in your wife, do not look for beauty. Your wife is so cute because she is willing to set aside her needs for more important household needs. Don't regret it then loh mas."
The long story of Bu Mar makes me daydream. Is it so. I am the one who is not paying attention to his personal needs.
Ahh maybe that was the experience of Ms Mar alone whose husband was just a clean handyman in the office.
"It's Miss Mar, I go in first. Don't let me be late again because I've been listening to Bu Mar's curse for too long."
Then I left the food stall, Bu Mar just shook his head while continuing to clean the table I ate earlier.
I sat back down and tidied up my shirt which was a bit tangled from eating too greedily. "Duhh, there's another stain on the food."
I went straight to the bathroom to clean the stains on my clothes. Then I looked in front of the mirror while occasionally tidying my hair. As soon as I remembered Bu Mar's words again, Don't regret it later he said.
I try not to think about it anymore. Then, I rushed out of the bathroom, suddenly I heard the sound of people calling from the bathroom next to me.
"Inara, you don't like that. I haven't seen you in a long time. Let me visit you huh. There will be no problem, you are not alone, there are your parents there too."
I was shocked that someone mentioned the name Inara, my wife. Then I put my earlobe to the door to make sure my hearing wasn't right.
"Inara listen. I don't care about any of that. I just want to know how you are. I don't know about your wedding either. You didn't invite me at that time. I'll be at your house later this afternoon."
Then silence, no more voices. Suddenly the door opened and I was pushed into the bathroom.
Brugh...
I'm tumbling. Then stood someone in front of me who was also no less surprised by me.
"You eavesdropped on ya."
I looked from the bottom up, and I stood up straight away, my hands shaking. He was the new CEO.
"You're doing this here, you're eavesdropping on my conversation."
"N-no sir. I just confirmed my shoes were stained."
I was really excited, it turns out this is what other employees feel. His gaze was so cold and firm.
Then he left me without a word.
"Huh.. Thankfully it was not discovered."
But, something's weird. He called Inara's name. Is it possible my wife?
