Monochrome Girls

Episode 32

"For all." Greetings from Grace who just arrived.

Grace who had just arrived at the lecturer's office greeted everyone and sat down. Just sitting down, Al arrives from the entrance.

"Good Morning, Azlan." Grace said to Al

"For Ma'am "Answer Al answered casually but did not see Grace for long, Al immediately walked towards her seat.

Al who had just sat down, Grace came with a package that she would give to Al.

"Sir Azlan, this is for you." Grace.

"Forku?" ask Al who is surprised.

"Yes sir, yesterday I went shopping and accidentally saw this tie seemed to fit the father." Answer Grace.

"Well, only Azlan's time was given?" ask some colleagues.

"Heheh, you guys have often given me gifts if I was out of town. So this time, just let me give Mr. Azlan as your representative for the friendship mark already a month." Grace answered quickly giving an alibi to everyone.

"Yes too, Grace is indeed often royal to people."

"But isn't this a little overwhelming when looking at it? All this time we've only been given food, not an item?" whisper some people.

"So Mr. Azlan just take it." Answer Grace.

"Sorry Miss Grace, not that I didn't accept mom's good offer. It's just that if I accept this tie, chances are I won't be able to wear it and it'll hurt mom." Answer Al.

"Why?" ask Grace who did not accept the rejection.

"Because all these items I wear are my Fiance's choice. So if there's a new item she didn't choose, I could hurt her. So I better tell you the truth." Al answered by giving an alibi of denial.

"Oh. I'm sorry sir, I don't mean anything "Reported Grace sadly but did not accept this. Because the rejection given by Al made him embarrassed in the presence of colleagues.

"Look, Miss Grace is very sad. What I do know is that he did not accept rejection since childhood. Even today he works on campus rather than his father's company. He always does everything." Saying someone teacher

"really?"

"That's how."

Grace pulls back the gift that's already on Al's desk. But still standing in front of Al's table holding the prize.

"Father is a good man who takes care of the feelings of the fiancee. But as far as I know you don't have a fiancee?" ask Grace who won't lose.

"Yes, isn't Mr Azlan a man who's never been gosipin with a woman?"

"Never in the news is there doesn't mean there isn't. It's just that he doesn't want to be published at the moment. Because he doesn't like the media. I'm just keeping his privacy." Al answered with a smile.

"So it's like that, it's worth it." Grace and the others answered.

"Look, the more you refuse. I'm getting more and more into having you. And I'll take you from your fiancee." Grace replied inwardly as she looked at Al intensely and then went to walk to her desk.

"It's a shame that Mr. Al didn't receive a gift from Ms. Grace. Though it's branded goods brand H*rm*s." Say those who show gifts rejected by Al.

"Yes when I might not be able to buy "

"But for Miss Grace it's just a small thing."

Those who were in the office saw this became gossipy. While Grace is still with emotions rejected by Al. And Al was still acting relaxed like nothing had happened. His coldness is always there even though he is always changing his identity.

"He was always so close from the first moment when I didn't like him at all. This woman is indeed troublesome. Just a faint smile from me and a few words of reply made her fall in love. I never gave him any hope. He's the one who hopes for more." Al replied inwardly looking at Grace who was sitting with a pouting face.

"That's nothing to think about. With me saying that, he might stop to give me hope. Because one way to stop people who want PDKT with us is to tell that we already have a heart. Even though I lied about my fiancee." Al replied with a small laugh but he immediately covered it with his hand.

"I'm not going to let go of Queen just like that either. Who told him to be able to move this heart to like it." Al replied inwardly while searching for the book in his bag.

Al looked at the clock on the right wrist. Time has almost shown the time to go to class. Al immediately walked towards the classroom, leaving the teacher room that had become quiet due to the recent incident he had with Grace.

"Grace don't get discouraged. Maybe he's a nice guy who takes care of your partner's heart." Saying someone teacher.

"(With a smile) It's okay, I just accept the decision from Mr. Azlan, he said, after all if the gift is not received the most important thing he knows that we as his current co-workers are very happy about his whereabouts." Answer Grace.

"You're right. We are very happy with Mr. Azlan as our co-worker. There are many things we do not know but know about. He is also one of the people who are not stingy." The answer.

"Yes. But ever since he joined us, he's never been willing to eat with us after work." Grace replies looking for an opportunity to get some time close to Al. Because all this time when they had dinner together, Al always refused the invitation.

"Yes too, doesn't that also include outrageous acts. If you want to keep your partner feeling then your partner should also understand that Mr. Azlan should have time for his co-workers. At least he should socialize well with us as his co-worker."

"Yes too, he's never been so close to us. All this time other than a good morning, he never even talked more with us in this office."

"Yes, he's too cold isn't he?"

"Yes. Maybe he's an introvert."

"Yes, yes it could be. Look at it all this time, not just a couple. He never even appeared in public. Everyone knows his name but not his face. Most of the news was just a rumor about him. And it's possible that he who appears on the show without showing his face is also just an alibi to cover his face. You guys just look at his looks. Too old-fashioned, even if fashionable he's pretty handsome."

"Hahahha yes yes. I think so too. It's possible that if the bangs he has don't cover his forehead and also his glasses don't cover his beautiful eyes with those blue eyeballs, he might just be really handsome."
