That Cold Guy is my Ex!

S02 - BOBA

Keynna's impromptu idea was thoroughly tested by Jiana's Snack team. They tested the sorghum's match with fat on the milk ice cream and their taste mentestimonies. As Keynna suggested, they replaced animal milk with soy milk. And be their first prototype today to spend ten hours creating Keynna's creative idea design.

"Finally!" pekik Chika's. He stretched his stiff hand upwards.

"We try." said Jiana. They also began to scoop a little ice cream cold to taste it.

Crazy anyway, at seven o'clock they eat ice cream.

"Where?" jiana asked for an opinion. Keynna examined the facial features of his colleagues, rather curious how the idea of ice cream tastes.

"Enak, but it's a little less. I think the ice cream melted directly in my mouth. Not to soft but rather to dilute." Jeremy commented. The opinion of the boy is taken by Chika, Desi and Rafi. They feel the same way.

"The consistency of the material is also a bit messy in my opinion mbak. Kind of weird. It's like a flour ice cream." added Desi frowning.

"But delicious. Suitable for commercialization." concluded Chika.

Jiana nodded, "Okay because it's night, we've done it first. You bring this ice cream sample and you think at home how to fix it. I have submitted this to the management team. The center will review our idea in a week."

"What's? Ma'am, no fluster? The idea of Keynna is still raw so, not sure it can be completed a week." Rafi protested.

"How else, cafe flower will hold a winter edition event, the time is another month. Anyway do not need to worry a lot, work with the best okay." concluded Jiana.

They all nodded languidly.

Keynna arrived at his apartment an hour later. Jakarta streets at night are still jammed not much different from the daytime. His energy seemed to have run out on the journey so he could only sit weakly in his living room chair.

Chequelek

The main door opened, Keynna looked up but before long she put her head back down, already knowing who was coming. Regan who saw Keynna's edge approached him.

"Not hot." muttered Regan touching Keynna's forehead.

Keynna brushed off Regan's hand on her forehead.

"Why Lo Key?" regan asked, sitting next to Keynna, wagging her legs.

"Lemes, don't bother" he said.

"Lemes's sick? is lemes tired?" ask Regan.

Keynna raised both fingers, hinting that she was limp due to the weariness.

"Well, I'll make some food and I'll say something" Regan said. No answer, Regan went straight to the kitchen.

Soon Regan brought a bowl of warm soup and rice that also steamed warmly in front of Keynna. The guy put the tray of food on the table.

"Key, get up first, eat" he said.

"Males." answered Keynna briefly. He closed his eyes even though he was not sleeping.

"No, hunt." Regan pulled out Keynna's hand, slightly grabbing it so Keynna would sit up straight. Eventually, Keynna opened her eyes.

"Gue bribe." break up Regan.

"Ck, I'm not a kid." Keynna took over the bowl of soup and started eating.

Regan just bobbing heads.

Thirty minutes later, Keynna finished dinner as did Regan. After Regan washes the dishes, now the guy is ready to say what he wanted to say.

"So Key, you can focus, right?" ask Regan first.

Keynna. The energy is back.

"Gue-wants to go to New York" Regan said hesitantly.

Keynna sculpted, "Why?" ask Keynna slowly.

"There's an important job. It won't take long" he replied.

"How long?" ask Keynna.

"One month."

"REGAN!" Keynna. "A really long time?" his weakness.

"Well, Key, the work is quite important. Or do you want to come with me?" tawar Regan is hoping.

Keynna shook his head, "Lo amnesia I'm working?"

Regan let out a breath. "So yeah I had to stay in Lo while."

Keynna also sighed softly, my God how he went about his day without Regan in this foreign place. Although Jakarta is one of the cities in the country of his birth but still, the presence of Regan for 10 years in his life made him dependent on the man. Plus he's alone. Her mother is in Singapore, her sister is in Singapore. Her papa? forget that guy.

"It's only been a month baby, don't be sad" said Regan softly. He pulled Keynna into his arms making Keynna finally sob softly.

***

And unfortunately Regan didn't tell me when he was leaving. Because as soon as he woke up, he looked around Regan's house no longer there. The man left only a letter complete with breakfast served at the dinner table.

Sorry, sweety I was forced to go without saying goodbye directly to Lo. I just can't see Lo sad later, faith I like not strong later even I so go. The point is to take care of health, do not forget to eat regularly, do not eat junk food, if Lo males cook live pesen good aja yes. Later I call Lo every day, and Lo must answer the phone I'm careful if you don't. My eyes are many. Take good care of yourself, Keynna. I'll be back in a month. I quickly went back to Lo's side again. I can't afford to stay in a foreign place for long.

^^^- Regan, Keynna's favorite cogan^^

"Yeah!! fucking Regan!" Isak Keynna is upset.

But before long Keynna began to eat the last breakfast that Regan made even while whining.

***

In the office, Keynna was silent. The mood is ugly because Regan left without saying goodbye. Although last night the guy had said the reason for his departure but still, Keynna wanted Regan to say goodbye in person or if she could she wanted to take Regan to the airport.

Keynna finally decided to the office pantry, he wanted to make coffee. But when he was making coffee, he was pensive. Just three hours after Regan left, Keynna had gone crazy on her own.

"Aah!" keynna screeched as hot water splashed onto her arm. Keynna glared, he immediately turned off the coffee machine.

"Shhh-so-loody I." he blew his flushed arm.

As he was focusing on blowing his arm, a burly hand pulled the injured arm.

"Arshaka." she cried in shock.

"That's so fucking messy. If you want to dream, don't make coffee anymore. There in the grave let all be together." Arshaka's scolding is cold. The man pulled out Keynna's hand to sit in the pantry seat.

Keynna remained silent while Arshaka focused on applying the ointment to his wound. The cold instantly radiates to relieve the heat that was felt earlier. Unknowingly Keynna daydreams again.

"Done." muttered Arshaka relieved. He was worried when he saw Keynna being exposed to hot water earlier. Actually, he had observed Keynna who was daydreaming while making coffee. The man immediately ran as Keynna screamed in pain.

"Keyna--" rebukes Arshaka when she sees the girl daydreaming again.

"Huh? What-" Keynna gasped.

"It's like Lo's mind is no longer at work. You can't work under the conditions of a kayak gini." said Arshaka. Keynna is the only female employee he treats special. The guy does not want to speak formally like a superior to subordinates.

"It's okay, I'm fine." replied Keynna without forgetting her politeness talking to the boss.

"It's better to go home. I asked the office driver to anterin Lo." break up Arshaka.

"It's okay, sir. I am doing well. I just have a little more thoughts." refused Keynna. The time he came home anyway? Not good with his co-workers. Moreover, he also did not have anything that required him to go home early.

"Really's? How am I worried?" asked Arshaka doubtfully.

Keynna nodded confidently, "I have work to do. I don't want my boss to be disappointed" he said.

***

Arshaka returns to his room after parting ways with Keynna in the elevator. Keynna went back to his room to work.

Arshaka was silent thinking about something and before long she called someone from the office phone.

"Raffa, to my room now."

Five minutes later, Raffa arrived.

Tok

"Get in." said Arshaka.

Raffa entered the room of his best friend and his boss.

"Yoo what's up boss?" tanyanya relax.

"Let's know what happened to Keynna. I think he has a problem." Arshaka ordered.

"Gue can't tell Lo if I know." replied Arshaka sharply.

Raffa pursed his lips in understanding. He did not want to ask any further and directly carried out the orders of his boss.

****

Keynna kept silent on what ideas he should add to his innovation. But his brain cannot compromise.

"Hey, cynn don't have to be forced into thinking. Our work requires ideas to flow naturally. Don't be forced, because what is forced is not good." Rafi chirped to the table Keynna.

"Gue is confused, what's wrong? how not according to expectations." said Keynna frowning.

"Udah should not be thought too dalem. Take it easy Key, let the idea come naturally. Mending you to the cafe, beautiful nongki-nongki who knows why cogan really." Rafi's enthusiastic advice.

"Who can get out during business hours?" ask Keynna.

"Yes, you can. We are special. Because part of the Development team so our working hours are free. We can't be locked up for hours in a cubicle of this cake that we're going to run out of ideas because there's no inspiration."

Keynna was silent, seemingly thinking of something.

"By, lama. Hunt's gone." Keynna pushed Rafi out of the room.

"Don't turn back before you're satisfied!" he shouted at Keynna and then closed the metallic door just like that.

"Gue is cast out." - muttered Keynna from the outside.

***

Finally Keynna followed Rafi's advice to hang out for a while trying to raise the atmosphere that was not good since morning. The girl went to the cafe which was quite close to the office. The atmosphere was quite quiet at the time. Probably because it's still working hours. So there are not many different visitors when the meal time arrives. You can be sure the queue of visitors until out of the cafe.

Keynna came forward to order her drink but before she said what the message was, someone suddenly grabbed her.

"Try one, milkshake one" said the man.

Keynna glared and his eyes almost popped when he looked at Arshaka. What the hell is that guy doing here. Keynna glanced at her watch still at ten in the morning.

"Mr?" tanya Keynna stammered.

"What pesen is he?" scold the waiter to Keynna.

"I-i-"

"That order, ma'am. Boba one, milkshake one." cut Arshaka.

The waiter nodded. "Please wait a minute."

After ordering, Arshaka immediately pulled Keynna's hand gently towards one of the tables. They sat facing each other by the big window.

"Why can you be here?" keynna asked still not recovering from her shock.

"It's out of the office time, Key. Just call the usual why." Arshaka protested.

"Why are you here? You can't possibly be lacking a lot of work right up until the working hours are made to hang out." asked Keynna now with her usual tone.

"Why is Lo here? It's working hours to the cafe." asked Arshaka.

Keynna grimaced, yes she must not forget that Arshaka is the boss. And he got caught by his boss while hanging out at work.

"Gue sfor, need some refreshment so I can think of being here. He didn't say my team hours were free, right? That means you don't have to be locked up in a cubicle." Keynna tried to defend himself.

"Yes emang. I'll let you guys come to work at what time, go home what time your work is on target and satisfactory."

Keynna let out a sigh of relief, "Father that's it."

Soon their orders arrived. Keynna wanted to take Boba, but Arshaka took him and drank it without sin.

"Saka, I want boba." exclaimed Keynna.

"But I'm the one who pesen this first." said Arshaka lightly.

"But you can drink milkshakes, I want boba!" keynna.

"Gue also wants to." Arshaka replied not to lose.

Keynna clucked, free to argue with his ex-nicebelin that there he will be more blood. Giving up, eventually Keynna drank his strobery milkshake even with a cocky feeling.

"Not be angry. It's just another pesen." said Arshaka.

Keynna glared sharply, "Males. Beliin sono!"

"Gue boss Lo yes employee time dictates his boss, no manners." Arshaka scolded.

Keynna snorted, "Jaudah I'm resigning now." he threatened.

Arshaka panicked, "Yes, don't. Ambekan Lo's. I am pesenin. You want Boba, right?" Keynna.

Arshaka immediately moved from his seat and approached the cashier to order again. Keynna smiled happily.

Before long Arshaka came with a glass of Boba and handed it to Keynna.

"Don't say thanks?" arshaka Syndir.

"Make what? Lo alone who snatch my drink." reply Keynna glared.

Arshaka grunts.

But Keynna was suddenly silent when she felt the chewy Boba enter her mouth. He chewed slowly, feeling the chewy texture of the brown balls. Instantly an idea came to his mind.

"Gue has to go to the office again." he chirped. The girl hurriedly left the cafe leaving Arshaka alone without the boy asking.

"Ck, left again." grumbled Arshaka.

The guy also finally left while sipping a drink Boba Keynna which is still full because the drink was finished first.

***

Keynna reached her room, grabbed her lab coat hanging near her desk and ran as fast as she could to the lab. He paid no heed to his co-workers who were staring at him in confusion.

"Ikutin" Jeremy told his friends.

While Keynna immediately implement the idea that had just come to his brain. After eating Boba, he felt he had an idea. He will make Boba from sorghum and to further enrich the texture he will also include small grains of sorghum so that the ice cream does not melt quickly in the mouth and feels more crunchy.

Seeing Keynna's distress, Jeremy, Chika, Desi and Rafi help after Keynna instructs the steps.

Two hours later, be Boba sorghum and the second version of ice cream.

They tried it and their eyes all emitted the same twinkle.

"Crazy, Ma'am Jiana must know about this" said Desi enthusiastically.

Then they took the results of their experiment to the meeting room where Jiana was waiting because she was in the cafeteria when she called Jeremy.

"So, what wonderful thing do you want to tell me?" jiana asked, starting the conversation.

"Let Keynna do the talking. This is the result of Keynna's brilliant idea" Chika said, letting Keynna explain.

All eyes are staring at Keynna now.

"So yesterday we found the problem of ice cream melting in the mouth so to prolong the melting process and enrich the structure I tried to put sorghum grains into the ice cream to make the ice cream a little bit more solid and when eaten there will be a sensation of crunchy. then as an ice cream that can block my stomach make Boba as a topping with sorghum. So this ice cream I will call as Ice Boba sorghum." explained Keynna.

"Bak cobain deh, it feels even though it is not perfect because it is still plain but in terms of consistency of taste and ingredients is fitting." said Desi handed a small spoon to Jiana.

Jiana tasting. His eyes sparkled and immediately nodded.

"This is amazing. Though only the original taste of milk and sorghum but it is as delicious as this how when mixed other flavors such as strawberry or mango." praise Jiana.

"I will submit this menu immediately to the management team. Good work Keynna, good work everyone." After saying that, Jiana immediately went to meet the management team.

"Good job, Keynna, Lo can prove that even though Lo is a new child but Lo's performance is great." Desi praised.

"Good job, Key, hopefully this event will be smooth." added Chika.

"Goodjob Keynna, I'm so proud of you." Jeremy smiled patting Keynna on the shoulder.

"Congratulations cyn, I think this is all because of my idea that told you to nongki in the cafe and you managed to have a brilliant idea." Rafi hugs Keynna enthusiastically.

"Thank you without all of you I can't get to this point. Thanks for your support.and Rafi if Lo does ngusir I to hang out in the cafe like I will forever be a living fossil sitting dreamy in the cubicle." replied Keynna chuckled.

"Always dong, moreover, it was cemented handsome guy, awokwok." teased Rafi moody.

Fortunately, only Keynna was able to hear Rafi's words earlier. Gawat, is it true that Rafi saw him and Arshaka sitting together?
