"Ko Derrick."
"Sandra, there's a problem with Oliver. Where are you now?" I decided to call Ko Derrick tonight after we had dinner. I'm gonna tell him now, ask him to help me.
"I'm in Vietnam, the project is already underway he asked me to come along. The problem with Oliver isn't, maybe the problem with Kent?"
"Kent's? Kent Chai in Hong Kong you mean? What's wrong with Kent?"
"Yes, there's actually something I haven't told Koko why I moved from Hong Kong five years ago..." I'm telling you everything now with nothing to cover up again, until the incident in Jakarta, and finally the incident at the airport.
For a moment he was silent. I know what will happen after his residence. He'll scold me after this.
"Sandra! What thoughts keep you from telling me everything from the beginning, why do you seem to think all of us don't exist!"
"I knew Koko would be angry... I just..."
"You walk with your own stupid mind! How can you..." He cut me off quickly. The sound of breathing there made me feel guilty.
"But Koko is taking care of Koko's wedding,... I might just ask Koko to threaten her, so as not to bother me anymore."
"I'll go there myself looking for him! When did you get back to HK?!" I didn't expect him to get angry this time.
"Bags..."
"When are you coming home?"
"I'm here 2 weeks, about the 20th I'm back."
"Koko will be there later, she will have to pay for this. You okay there? Oliver's got you in trouble?"
"No, I'm fine here. He's acting really sweet."
"Sugary?"
"Well, you know a man, but he's still honoring our contract." Ko Derrick is laughing now.
"You like it? Don't be so quick to flatter."
"No, I don't intend to give him the way too easily. But until now it seems he's not messing around."
"Ohh yes I met Brother Shum yesterday, he is fat once now."
"Later I'm gonna round them up, that Kent bastard needs to account for what he did."
"Koko don't let this make trouble with the big boss, however Kent is Philip's man."
"Of course all this will be to Philip's knowledge."
"But is it worth it? I mean a fight with a guy like him would seem like it would be hard."
"Koko will take care of it. You're quiet in Hanoi, Kent's my business."
"All right, the important thing is that Koko doesn't get herself into trouble, all I want is that she doesn't bother me anymore. No need for anything else."
"Yes I know what to do."
A business is over, I hope Kent won't bother me in Vietnam and certainly won't bother Oliver.
\=\=\=\=\=\=\=
Everyone is too busy today. The new office on set I helped the office, Nguyen in the field helped the head of the project. Me and Nguyen helped as much as we could, I've learned Vietnamese vocabulary helped with Nguyen, good enough at least to buy food, ask directions, amount of money, and, just understanding my daily conversations I shouldn't have any more trouble.
New details come for those tasked with working on the detail blueprint. While in the field there seems to be everyone busy with their respective tasks.
The project container office which may be located about 300 meters from the area that has been pegged to the project site consists of 4 connected containers, has one special room for the project head, and has one special room for the project head, spacious staff workspace, and project meeting room, even pantry room in the back.
"All your lunches are ready in the pantry room,..." Since Nguyen was busy helping out in the field, this matter is my business now, Nguyen has given me some restaurant data that could be the place to order our food.
Coinciding with those on the project also returned.
"Miss Sandra you self-ordered at a local restaurant, you know Vietnamese?" Mr. Andy was astonished.
"Ohhh I've been working on a PR from Nguyen Tuan Lui. Just ordering food can."
"Come on.ayo, we'll eat first if so. Sir Oliver, our lunch is available." The tableware is quite complete, I have prepared it in a short time. So that they are comfortable working.
"Come, ..." My job is to set the office in order.
"Sandra, Nguyen you guys should come too, come on all, it's our first day, hopefully the front goes well." Mr. Lui seems to want to make a little meal together this time.
"May all be well." I've never been involved with a project like this. Two weeks of experience in this team seems to be fun.
"Mr Lui, I haven't finished the beach lanscape order yet, this afternoon I will be working on it starting this afternoon. I'll leave the other surveillance on you..."
"Well, Sir Oliver..."
He seems to be going with his laptop bag to work, I don't want to bother him. But then at six in the afternoon he gave me a message.
"You see the sunset? Come downstairs." I walked towards the beach, some curious staff also ended up coming with me.
"You brought a crowd to it." He sits on the beach in the shade of a tree carrying a folding table, the perfect way to get an idea seems.
"They want to come." The others ran towards the monitor while I sat nearby. As beautiful as I remember before.
"Well to work here?"
"Yes, I've never worked on a project like this, it's nice to be able to help."
"Are you thinking about changing jobs?"
"Hmm. I now teach in firearms class, in Hong Kong managing a nightclub, or teach in self defense class for the public. I don't think I've been working out of it. I have no experience, after all, my education is only high school."
"You have good managerial skills, it seems, you can manage a club."
"That's because I'm used to being in that neighborhood, I guess, after all, I also think it's because Kent was feared, no one dared mess with his girlfriend either. So it seems like it's going well, our world is a bit different Oliver, we win based on the level of strength not how many projects you win, or how much design you like the client."
"You want to stay in Hong Kong again?"
"Living in Hong Kong again."
"Come, ..."
"I'll take care of your business with Kent after we get back from Vietnam. Stay in Hong Kong again if you want..." I look at him now and smile. Oliver is good to me.
"Oliver thank you, you've always been nice to me, but you don't have to intervene against it, the organization has rules about Kent sia*lan, Ko Derrick said he'd take care of it, he's going to Hong Kong after I get back to ask for Kent's coverage. Thanks..."
Her tears were changing now, she looked at me with a strange look.
"I told you I could take care of it, why don't you just trust me."
"What's wrong, you got a lot of work, Kent trusts Boss Philip, has Ko Derrick take care of this, after all yesterday I was really scared you were hurt. You're my responsibility, but instead I'm hurting you."
He took a long breath. Looking at me with an expression that I think is full of jealousy because I rely more on Ko Derrick.
"You know I don't mind getting hurt for you. Why don't you understand that."
I-i understand.
And he left beside me just like that then. He's angry, because he's jealous, because I'm against his ego.
I knew he'd be mad.
But I did intend to see how he dealt with his anger, his jealousy. Maybe he'll give up? I don't mind him giving up. Maybe he will lose his attention a little. But if he had given up just because of a little exam.
Let's just say he's not serious.
