Not Ordinary Love

Photo Sheet

"Mom, I don't want to!" reject Alexa without thinking long when the momy delivers the news if she has to star in an ad.

"I just got back and Momy told me to work?" he continued in disbelief, looking at the momy full of disappointment.

At least, Rachel had to wait for a period of two weeks, or one month for Alexa's stamina to accumulate perfectly to return to the world of entertainment. With the reporters who interviewed him because his return was enough to overwhelm him. Alexa doesn't want to rush to add to the burden.

Rachel who was sitting in her chair just quietly read the contract that her daughter had to sign. After he thoroughly read the contents of the contract, he then looked at his daughter who had been grumbling since.

"The ad brand company really wants you to star in these ads and be their BA."

"They even dare to guarantee that the product will be the most superior for the future if you are the star of the ad."

"You'll also get a lot of edits out of it, Baby." Rachel's length makes Alexa's dilemma, the woman leaned her head against the shoulder of the couch and closed her eyes.

Alexa doesn't want to, just doesn't yet. He is not ready to jump into his field immediately after returning to the agency owned by the momy.

"How's it?" rachel asked as the woman took her seat and looked at Rachel with resignation. Meanwhile Rachel smiled triumphantly knowing the princess would not refuse.

Even Rachel folded her arms around her chest, as Alexa's mouth walked up to her desk to pick up the letter of the cooperation contract and pen.

In the end, Alexa also does not want to lose the opportunity to get the ad contract. After all, the brand is a big brand that Alexa cannot just waste.

"But, may I apply for a condition, Ma?"

"What, Honey? Tell me, Momy's gonna try." said Rachel happily.

"I will decide when the filming begins." said the woman steadily, Rachel seemed silent for a moment. Then nodding his head as if the conditions his daughter had proposed were easy.

Alexa finally signed the contract without reading it, she believes that Rachel has read it well.

Rachel smiled with satisfaction after her daughter signed her autograph there.

"Good girl." Decaknya that makes Alexa roll his eyes panted.

"You think this company belongs to you?"

"You come and go at will without considering the judgment of the employees. What are you going to be?"

"What kind of leader do you want to be?"

Rachel doesn't stop thinking when Ethan comes to the agency building at one o'clock in the afternoon without any confirmation from her beforehand. The one who was scolded just sat down with a downcast look, his fingers interlocked with one another by resignedly hearing Rachel's ravings because he was guilty.

"You when scolded never fight but also never change at all." continued Rachel, he exhaled violently. Ethan is the same as he was a few minutes ago.

Rachel stared at the man for a long time, but Ethan did not react at all to make Rachel ride black. To assuage her anger, the woman chooses to throw her body onto another sofa in front of Ethan.

The two fell silent for quite a while, making the room become so quiet in a few moments.

"How was Zoya's first day filming?" Rachel switched topics. Because it is useless to discuss Ethan's mistakes, the man will not be deterred and listen to him.

"Walking along smoothly, as expected." this time the man reacted even raised his gaze and looked at Rachel. It even makes the woman careless, if Ethan's face is not handsome maybe he will not want to see it.

"The next shoot, unless your office holiday or work is over, you don't have to come to Zoya's set!" rachel said indisputably, the look on her face this time back tense.

Ethan looked at the woman right in his eyes. The man nodded faintly.

"Momy wants you to listen, Ethan. Just for this time, please don't multiply the problem. Momy had a headache." Rachel's tone this time sounded off-powered.

The woman looked tired of facing the man. Ethan just looks at her pity, he often makes trouble and puts Rachel in a difficult position.

"You can get out!"

"Yes Mom, thank you ..., and sorry." he said, getting up from his seat and then getting out of Rachel's room.

Meanwhile, Alexa is walking out of the agency building while looking back at the photo sheet she got from Rachel. The mother asked him to destroy the photos.

Alexa screeches several times when looking at sheet by sheet photos. Even if there is no romanticism whatsoever to be seen between Ethan and Naina, still. The two people have a sacred bond and a legitimate partner.

Behind the public, people would have no idea what those two people were doing when they were just the two of them.

It is interesting to see it for too long, Alexa chose to re-enter all the photos into a brown envelope, brown, until a girl with a small body accidentally collided with him when the girl was running small about to enter the building. Make a photo sheet in Alexa's hands fall and scattered.

"Sorry, sorry." said the girl regretfully as she crouched down and collected the scattered photo sheets. Alexa also crouches carefully because of the tight dress she wears. In his heart he grumbled because he made the photos seen by others.

The girl picked up the photo sheet. His movements took a moment when he saw the photos. When he was not aware of his daydream, Alexa's white hand had already taken over the photo sheet in his hand.

"I'm sorry again, yeah" said the girl, Alexa nodding, quickly stuffing the envelope with the photos in her bag. At first glance he looked at the girl who had hit him and made the photo sheet in his hand fall.

"Sorry," said the girl once more, Alexa nodding faintly. Then immediately passed to continue his steps while grumbling, hoping that this would not be a problem because of his carelessness.

While the girl he left behind just stared at the tall woman's back with lips that spoke softly. "Sir Ethan?"

"Assistant Zoya?"

"What is their relationship?"

***

"Belody?" ask Freya. The woman seemed to be frowning inside the phone screen. The woman vidio calls Zoya to ask Zoya about the filming process on day one. Time shows at eight o'clock.

"Yes. Ethan went to the company when Zoya finished filming. Hmm, one o'clock in the afternoon." Zoya looked at Ethan who had just come down the stairs with his laptop and then sat down next to Zoya. The man peeked at Zoya's phone screen for a while and smiled at her.

"Jeez Zoya, that's your husband how, well, to say. There is no kapoknya diomelin mulu, no want to change. It's as if." oceh Freya while massaging her temple.

Ethan, who was packing his laptop to finish an abandoned job this afternoon, smiled as his wife leaned over his shoulder to respond to what the mother had said.

"Don't gosipin Ethan in front of Ethan's own Mother." he said with a hand that remains active at the laptop keyboard.

"It's not gosipin. It's ngomelin!" it was Freya who made Zoya laugh. Freya shook her head. It's not just once his son has acted that way, it feels too often. Very often, it may be Agyan and Freya's fault for forcing Ethan to take care of the company.

"Let Zoya try to tell me later, Mother. Who knows, this time Ethan wants to beat up his wife." said the woman to his in-laws.

"Hey! I'm always beating on you, honey." the man spoke up. But Zoya instead looked at him cynically, in contrast to Freya who laughed this time.

From another angle, Naina is cleaning dust on the family figura at Ethan's wedding with Zoya on display on one of the walls of the main room, just a faint smile at the interaction between Zoya and Freya.

Sweet. Those two always looked sweet.

Naina shook her head, brushed off the contents of her head which this late one so often felt envious of Zoya.

"It can't be that rich, it can't be Naina." the girl tried to control herself.

He doesn't deserve to be jealous of Zoya, obviously. Because she is the main character, Naina is only a supporting actor, she is angry. There was no way he could get anything special for his role.

If she can, she will only conceive Ethan's child, then leave Ethan's life with Zoya as far as possible after she gives birth.

"Yaudah, you take care of your diet, do not be too cape, do not be too forced, if you need something, say Mother well." said Freya before closing the vidio call.

"Yes, Mother. Thank you very much,"

"Together, Honey. Mother close well, bye."

"Well, Mother." Zoya's hand waved in front of the camera. The call with Freya ended, he put the phone on his thigh and then turned to Ethan who was busy struggling with his laptop.

Realizing that the wife is staring at him, Ethan stops her hand and looks at Zoya. The woman just squinted at the husband, the man actually brought his face closer to Zoya and looked at the woman's eyes fixedly.

Ethan's nosy behavior manages to make Zoya grieve while turning her attention in another direction. "I don't know what to say. But for sure I will not be bored to advise you, Momy is the same Mother of the real." said Zoya at length, he paused the sentence for a moment.

"You can't just be the CEO of AE RCH. You're an example of your subordinates, you have to give them a good example."

"Zoya, people tend to underestimate diligent people who are tenacious, deft and professional."

"They always think, if the person who is painstaking in work is a person who thirsts for the praise of colleagues and superiors–"

"Not everyone has the same mindset and perception Ethan!" the woman interrupts quickly, as usual Zoya is the most nyolot when arguing with her husband.

Ethan did not react, he just smiled a little and then touched the wife's nose with anxiety.

"The company and you, the most important thing to me is you. I fell in love with you long before I became CEO at AE RCH." said the man, returning to work.

"But it can't be, Ethan. The company has rules, as CEO you should know better."

"Honey, I know but–" the man did not continue his sentence, his lips seemed to move slowly reading a report inside his laptop monitor.

"But?" Zoya's forehead wrinkled, watching Ethan and waiting for the man's answer.

"But I don't care!" Ethan answered lightly. Zoya just clucked, folded her arms around her chest and chose not to look at her husband anymore. She must be tired of advising her husband.

When the wife no longer reacts. Ethan turned his head, the man just smilingly looking at his wife who folded her hands with her face bent.

***

In a room with a dazzling white feel, a man seemed to be sitting on a sofa in the corner of his room with a confused look.

Rival stared at his phone screen where on a contact with Naina's name. He gets Naina's number directly from the girl herself while in the movie theater.

"May I have your number?" rival asked remembering that Naina's old number could not be reached.

Naina of course could not resist, she would feel awkward and uneasy because Rival had already pulled out his phone and was preparing to type Naina's number.

"Call me if you're ready to meet my family."

"Mas–"

"I'm not asking fast, Naina. You have plenty of time to make choices and make decisions. No need to rush. But you have to make sure, if you're sure when you give me the answer."

Rival sighed, looking back at his phone that did not have any notifications. He should feel disappointed when the girl does not contact him to inform him of his decision.

"It's only been a day."

"Naina still needs a lot of time to think." Rival tried to convince himself.
