There's love
...M.Y.C.H.O.S.E.N.A.N...
...There was love in his eyes...
***
It's been a week since Elena resigned. It has also been a week Bima always scolded his employees even though only a small mistake they did.
"Pak Bima is now so grumpy, even though my mistake was only wearing a dark red shirt" said one of the employees to his friend when he came out of the room Bima.
Anggi who accidentally heard it felt astonished. Is it true Ka Bima like that he said as he moved towards the door and opened it featuring the figure of Bima who was kneeling at the base of his head.
"Hi Kak" he said as he approached and landed his body on a soft sofa in the middle of the room.
"Ka Bima why?" asked Anggi when he saw Bim's face that was so tangled.
"I'm fine." elak Bima. "What are you doing here Anggi? it's not like you usually come to the office without telling me first." Bima walked up to Anggi and sat down on the sofa beside Anggi.
"Is there something I want to ask you about Ka Bima?"
"What's that?" bima said while leaning his head with his palm as a base.
Anggi looked around, about it felt safe he again justified his sitting looking for a comfortable position to continue his sentence.
"About Elena" he said half a whisper.
Hearing Elena's name, Bima's eyes immediately glared. He really focused his hearing on every sentence that shot out of Anggi's mouth.
"Is there something with Elena?" Bima immediately positioned his seat upright.
"I just wanted to ask, did Ka Elena already know about Sister's marriage?" Anggi put on a serious face.
"Why are you asking like that, is there something you're hiding Anggi?"
"Ti-no Ka Bima, I just ask" said Anggi stammering, he scratched the back of his head that did not itch.
"really?" ask Bima.
"Yes, now Ka Bima answered my question earlier. Did Elena already know?" It was really serious this time.
"Hm." Bima took a long breath. "Yes that's why he resigned from the company." Bima returned to her head. This time, he closed his eyes with his arm.
Anggi bowed limp, lost was his chance to take Erlang's heart. His love story had to run aground when he had not started it at all.

The more days Erlang and Elena's relationship gets closer. Not infrequently they eat lunch together during the break.
"Ah wait a minute, it seems like I left the car keys at the restaurant earlier" Erlang said as he checked his left and right suit pockets.
"Why can you be this stupid?" said Elena who was upset.
"I'm sorry, you wait here I'll go back to the restaurant to pick up the car keys."
"Alright." said Elena then quickly Erlang moved into the restaurant earlier.
Elena waited for Erlang while leaning against the car door. Sometimes he sees people passing by.
"Ka Elena" said a woman not far from Elena's position.
"Figure" he said when he found out Anggi which was about 3 meters away was walking slowly approaching him.
"What's Elena doing here?" asked Anggi while displaying his smile. The woman actually smiled when she met Elena.
Either a forced smile or a truly sincere smile.
"Waiting for Ka Erlang?" guess Anggi when he recognized the car Elena was sitting in."
"L-yes" Elena said stammeringly. Unexpectedly, Anggi guessed correctly.
"I can explain everything Anggi." he continued.
"What would you like Elena to explain?" Anggi folded his hands on his chest.
"It's not like you see Anggi."
"Ka Elena." call Anggi, when Elena hasn't had time to finish her sentence.
"Yes." he said.
"Ka Elena doesn't have to lie." Anggi still remains with the folding position of the hand.
"Ma-you mean what Anggi?" why did Anggi call it lying Elena thought.
"I've known everything Ka. Ka Elena was the person Ka Erlang had been waiting for, right?"
"Pick."
"Actually I was disappointed with Ka Elena for not being honest with me. But after I thought about it, I'm sure Ka Elena must have had a reason behind it all."
"Figure me." Elena's words were again broken by Anggi
"Oh yeah maybe that time I had told Ka Elena to win Ka Erlang's heart because I didn't know what kind of person Ka Erlang was waiting for" Anggi said as she continued to babble. He took a breath for a moment.
"But after I found out if my rival was Ka Elena, I couldn't afford Ka. I'm backing away." continued again.
"Fig now let me explain. Now Erlang and I are just superiors and secretaries. While outside the office, Erlang and I were just friends." there was an emphasis on the words of the friend Elena uttered.
"Friends, there's no way Ka Elena. I saw there was love in Ka Erlang's eyes." Anggi's last words still stuck in Elena's ears. Several times Erlang invited him to talk while in the car, but always ignored by Elena.

"This is Ms. Elena's file that I asked for" said the female employee, handing out several important files.
"Thank you" said Elena, taking the files and then returning to her laptop.
"Why? is there something you forgot?" he said again while looking at the female employee who was still not budging from her position.
"There's no Miss Elena" he replied, but still watched Elena's every move.
"Then why are you still here?"
"I'm just amazed by Miss Elena. It's beautiful, smart, can finish the job easily, so Mr. Erlangga's favorite again. I want to learn from Miss Elena."
"Dear Mr. Erlangga, what do you mean?" elena asked astonished. He again digested the sentence that the employee threw
"He deserves that Mr. Erlangga likes Ms. Elena. Elena's mother is really a complete package." she said, holding her thumbs up.
"I'm the same Mr. Erlangga has nothing to do" he said with a clumsy smile.
"Certainly Ma'am?"the female employee looked at Elena seriously. He really did not believe Elena's words. Because he often saw Elena and Erlang eating together during the break.
"Yes right."
"But I saw there was love in Mr. Erlangga's eyes when he saw his mother. A different look when Mr. Erlangga looked at mom." the employee's words made Elena not wince. Why is the same as what Anggi said.
Elena recalled Anggi's words plus the words of the female employee. What does he really think.
Is it true that Erlang still harbors a taste after I told Erlang several times to forget about me.
