Secretly Loving You's

Ch 4 - Training Days

I can't answer. Can only duck and swallow with great difficulty. My height, which is only 157 cm, looks very contrasted with the height of his body. The narrow room felt increasingly narrow. His existence is very dominating.

Mr. Armand stood in front of me while crossing his arms in front of his chest. This time he was wearing a dark gray shirt combined with pitch-black pants. His sleeves were partially rolled up, revealing his loamy arm muscles.

I swallowed again. For the size of a banker, why does he have such a prime body? Mr. Armand really knows how to keep his body fit.

Look anywhere, as long as it's not on his body. Seeing him always makes it hard to breathe. It was as if the oxygen around me had been drained. The atmosphere becomes hotter. I don't know what this feeling is. Is this just a fear of meeting a superior person, or is there some other feeling I don't know about?

"Customize yourself. I'm back in 10 minutes." Without waiting for a response, the man waltzed away and entered his own room.

"Yourf!" A sigh of relief just slid away. My body that had been tense immediately sat down limp.

For me, the existence of Mr. Kaku is much more intimidating than the branch manager himself. I hope my hardy soul can be useful at this time.

"I can definitely survive here!! Sure can!!" I said in my heart while clenching my hands, strengthening my stance and preparing mentally.

"Your name is Arsha?" Suddenly a man whose age was not far from Mr. Kaku was standing in front of me. His posture is slightly shorter than that of Mr. Kaku. His body is well-built with mature sapodilla skin. His hair is neat, the hallmark of a bank employee. Face character. All right, I'll be honest, his face is sweet. But her smile was even sweeter. I didn't see her figure during the morbrief. Who is this guy?

Not wanting to speculate much, I quickly stood up and took a perfect stance.

"Meet you sir, my name is Arsha Nayyara. I am a training staff who just entered today," I said as I lowered my head. The senior must be polite, especially if the senior has a position. Who know?

"I'm Haidar. Head of lending here. Arsha, we'll work together often. Please help." The man named Haidar stuck out his hand while smiling warmly, inevitably I returned the hand politely.

"Please help me too Mr ...."

"Yes, just relax. Where did you work before?" My hands are still in the man's hands. I politely tried to pull her slowly.

"I ...."

"Have the intermezzo finished? If you have, hurry to my room." My words were cut off immediately. We both looked at the origin of the sound. I saw Mr. Kaku leaning against the door with his hands folded over his chest. His eyes looked colder than before. Overwhelmed with such great fear, I quickly withdrew my hand and rushed over to Mr. Armand.

"S-I'm ready sir ...."

"Lake in!"

"Bright sir." The heavy voice and the unfriendly glare of the eyes made me even more limp. I will be treated as what I will be. Maybe I'll be chopped into goldfish food? Does a goldfish eat meat? Ah I don't know, my mind went everywhere.

I see Mr. Armand still staring at Mr. Haidar. Maybe I got it wrong, but I saw a hostile look there. As soon as I saw him enter the room, he immediately closed the door.

"Sit down!" His order. Again, I can only obey his words.

Being in a closed room and just being alone with him again raises his own anxiety.

Everyone who has normal eyesight will admit that Mr. Armand has a handsome face, but not his face that makes me very anxious, but his unfriendly attitude. Each was in front of him, as if facing the deciding trial. Very scary and stressful.

Too busy with my own thoughts, it made me not realize that Mr. Armand was already sitting in front of me. He looks at me fixedly. I can feel my crimped hair. I'm down. Dare not to return his gaze.

"Arsha."

"This is your contract. Read carefully before signing." He thrust out a few pieces of paper and crossed his arms back in front of his chest. His gaze was as if it was stripping me. I don't know what he's thinking? Is this unfriendly attitude just aimed at me or is his character like that? How am I going to work comfortably if my ward boss behaves like this?

I tried to ignore his existence and pretended to concentrate on reading every clause written in the contract.

In the contract stated, my training trial period was three months. If my performance is considered satisfactory, then I will be appointed as a contract employee for two years. After that time is up, there will be an appointment test as a permanent employee. If the exam is considered a failure, but the company is satisfied with my performance, then I will still be hired as an ordinary contract employee.

In addition to discussing the issue of tenure, in the contract also discusses the issue of salary, work discipline and duties and responsibilities.

"Is there anything you want to ask?" The voice returned. I spontaneously raised my head. My eyes came back with those cold eyes.

"Eh, um, for a while there hasn't been any sir ...." Actually my mouth is itching to ask. I wonder, who will be my performance appraiser? Is it Armand sir? Or Mr Marga? But I refrained from asking, because I thought it was less ethical.

"If nothing is asked, let's now discuss your duties."

"Good Sir." I re-establish the body, the spirit to work back smouldering inside. I'm ready for this job!

"Take your note. Take note of all my words."

"Eh, um, yes sir."

"First coin." Mr. Armand raised his hand and pointed his index finger. "There should be no co-worker relationship. The company pays you to work, not to be in a relationship."

My hand that was ready to dance on paper came to a halt. I looked at Mr. Kaku with a wondering look.

"Have you written?" Inquiringly. My mouth was really itching to ask, but again the view made me back silent.

"It's Sir."

"Second coin. If in the future there is an indication of a relationship, then one or both of them will be excluded. Understood?"

Hah, apparently Mr. Armand is really serious with his words. Hasn't the rule been abolished? Why is it still being used in this company?

"Yes, I understand sir."

"OKAY. Third point. Your job will double the work of three people at once. Make sure your brain is smart to absorb everything I say. Understood?!"

And, for the next hour, I recorded all the words and decrees of His Majesty the Lord Armand the Almighty.
