Our Barrier Fort

What's the reason, Ra?

Nah! It's not something I should be afraid of right now. It's time I learned not to care about the guy. He has become the past for me.

Focus on your work, Seira. Don't mind him.

I should have anticipated that this would happen, when I chose to be Alex's replacement secretary. I already know Alex and GE's company have a partnership, so I need to be ready for this cooperation meeting.

Huh...

Exhaled a rough breath before I stepped closer towards the table inside this VIP room. Alex pulled out a chair and let me sit there. I sat down with a flat face, staring straight without wanting to stare towards the man sitting beside me.

I glanced with the tip of my eye, Ganesh was certainly watching me. Nah! Please don't show me a face like that. This heart will hurt even more as Ganesh looks at me with a longing and hurt gaze.

Lord... I still can't be that easy forgetting this guy beside me. Especially if he's around me like this.

"Mr Ganesh, introduce this is Seira Queenera. He was the replacement secretary during my long-time secretary taking time off" said Alex who introduced himself formally. Although maybe he knows about my relationship with Ganesh. But it's about work. It cannot be linked to personal life.

I nodded respectfully to Ganesh and his Assistant whom I knew by the name of Adlan. He was a loyal man to Ganesh. Friends and friends who become assistants as well.

"It's nice to meet you, Mr. Ganesh and Mr. Adlan" I greet them politely and respectfully. But I saw Ganesh's changed face, as if I didn't like what I said just now.

"Well, let's just get started" Alex said, breaking the awkward atmosphere. I turned to Alex who blinked his eyes as if giving me confidence and confidence in the discussion of the meeting this time that I will present.

I got up and started opening Alex's files and laptop. Start explaining our company plan about this cooperation. Explain in detail. I was finally able to calm down and get this job done quite well.

I say thank you after I finish my session. Actually as long as I presented the discussion of cooperation earlier, I was not comfortable with Ganesh's gaze that continued to be directed at me. A look full of longing and hurt. I really can't see that look of her. I will also not be strong to see the appearance of him who is not as usual.

If the Ganesh I know is the perfect guy. But this time I saw her chaotic appearance. Hair that is no longer neatly combed, clothes that are tangled and black circumference in both eyeballs. Ganesh's appearance is very concerning.

Is he that frustrated?

I don't know.. I myself do not feel that my circumstances are better than Ganesh's. I'm also very frustrated with all this. But everything has been my decision. Fate has chosen us to separate. Can't afford it anymore if I have to go against a destiny that's clearly not on our side.

"So, how is Mr Ganesh? Is there anything you disagree about our new contract?" ask Alex

Maybe Alex is confused because Ganesh was silent, I know why Ganesh did not respond in the slightest to the contract of cooperation of Alex and GE's company. Because he was not focused, he had not focused on every detail of the contents of the new contract for the cooperation of this company. I know very well how Ganesh is out of focus or is in a lot of trouble. His facial expression could no longer lie to me.

"I will contact you later when we agree to the renewal of this cooperation contract"

It was not Ganesh who answered, but Adlan. The man seemed to know the situation was not okay. Especially when he saw his Master who had just been silent. If I were in Adlan's position, I would do the same.

I breathed a sigh of relief as Alex sped up the meeting this time. At least I can go faster than before Ganesh who always makes my heart hurt when I see him. Especially with his current state that looks chaotic.

I stood up as Alex stood up, Alex shook Adlan's hand "Thank you for the time"

Adlan nodded "We'll get to know about the cooperation soon"

"We're waiting for the good news" Alex said, shaking Ganesh's hand.

I also shook Adlan's hand with a slight nod of respect. As I was about to shake Ganesh's hand, I hesitated a little. Should I shake his hand after long enough we no longer meet and hold hands.

"May you ask me for a minute, I have something to talk to your secretary about" Ganesh finally said, after he had only been quiet since the meeting began. I was quite surprised by what Ganesh said.

"Well, I'll let you talk to my secretary. Solve all the problems between the two of you" Alex said before he walked out of the room. Adlan nodded his head respectfully before he also came out, leaving the two of us inside this room.

The atmosphere in this room was quiet, I just stood still without saying anything. I was confused where to start. I felt like there was nothing more I needed to talk to Ganesh. Because the truth is, we're done here.

Ganesh sat down and told me to sit down. We are finally sitting facing each other now. However, it was still quiet with each other. No words came out of me nor did Ganesh. We are still silent with our own minds.

"What is the reason Ra?" ask Ganesh suddenly

I looked at him, a face full of despair and a gaze of injured eyes and as if losing purpose in life. I want to cry to see the face of Ganesh, the man who still reigns in my heart.

I knew what he meant, the reason why I disappeared all of a sudden and left him. I did leave without giving a clear explanation or reason to Ganesh. I admit I was wrong about this. But, everything was so sudden. It was my father and mother's request that I no longer be able to do anything. Even just to meet Ganesh for a while and explain everything. I don't have time for that.

"Why leave me, disappear without news? All my social media access and cell phone numbers are blocked. Is that how you hate me, Ra? I know I was wrong to have married another woman when we were together and loved each other. But, what should it be in this way Ra? I'm in a big mess looking for you and trying to get to meet you, no matter how"

I was silent to hear every word of Ganesh. My eyes began to blur with tears. Hearing every question of Ganesh made my heart break even more. Why is it like this? I'm also very hurt by all this. And it turns out that Ganesh was equally wounded.

God, what am I supposed to do?
