The Dream of the President

Fail

That morning Shasa woke up from his deep sleep. Just this time he felt like sleeping on such a comfortable bed. The sun hasn't appeared yet, but his cell phone alarms are unceasingly beeping. Shasa stretched his body on the bed.

Before long lounging in bed, Shasa took a bath. Then he prepared for breakfast at the hotel restaurant.

Shasa entered a restaurant that was no less luxurious with his hotel lobby. The smell of food from here. Shasa's eyes surrounded the restaurant and he arranged to eat anything that morning. Shortly after he walked, a hotel employee greeted him.

"Good morning, Miss. From what room number?" The officer asked Shasa. After Shasa mentions his room number, Shasa is escorted by the clerk. Shasa is confused because the more they walk, the more they get away from the buffet resto. Shasa wondered in his heart until they arrived at the door of a room.

"Please, Miss. This is your dining room." The officer opened the door with a friendly smile. Shasa walked into the room with puzzled steps. Then the confusion turned to shock and annoyance after seeing Leo already sitting in the room

'He wants anything else!' grouse Shasa in heart

Leo was already sitting on the dining table chair. He was reading the newspaper and occasionally sipped a drink in his cup. Leo saw Shasa enter the room. He flicked his finger as if telling Shasa to come closer. Shasa hesitantly approached the dining table.

"Why are you standing? Don't want breakfast?" Leo asked coldly.

Shasa slightly laughed cynically while turning his face away. "Of course I want breakfast, sir. Can I have breakfast up ahead?" Shasa pointed outwards.

Leo did not reply and just stared intently at Shasa. There was no choice, Shasa finally sat on the chair. Before long, some waiters brought food to their tables.

"Why did he choose to eat in such a deserted place, anyway. Though in front there the food is a lot of tempting." Shasa spoke slowly while putting food in his mouth.

"The food here is more up to my standards. And most importantly, there is no crowd here. I don't like crowds."

'This is not so much anymore. But this was more like a grave.' Inner Shasa snorted at Leo's statement.

"Sir, why don't you like the crowd?" Shasa ventured to ask.

Leo was silent and did not answer. "You should be happy to eat with me this morning. I don't eat with just anyone."

Shasa did not understand what Leo said. "I've figured out a way for you to pay for your food this morning. I'd like to take a walk after here. I have been abroad for decades. I don't know much about where I live now. I'm kind enough to put all your debts together and you'll pay 1 time." Leo spoke at length. Shasa had already held back his regret.

"Okay, sir, don't go on. I knew what you were gonna ask for. All right, I'll be your tour guide. But, you'll have to follow all my rules during the streets." Shasa replied with a mischievous smile.

'What do you want to make a game of, sir? Hahaha, alright you have thrown the dice, now follow where I will take you.' Shasa planned inwardly.

From across the room where Leo and Shasa had breakfast, Haris' assistant actually enjoyed his breakfast alone.

'You said being accompanied by one person was too crowded so you reminded me many times to prepare a private dining room. But now you're eating with that woman. Hinh!' murmured Haris assistant with a small smile.

Implementation of the project began to run. Since arriving at the office, Shasa had been busy going back and forth here and there. Manager Iko is also busy taking care of his men and coordinating with Shasa. Leo continued to monitor the movement of the implementation team from his chair. Because Leo moves all those teams into his room, it is easier for Leo to see their activities.

'Stop smiling like that to everyone! Is your smile that cheap!' swear Leo in heart with a sharp eye to Shasa.

"Eh, sorry Mister. I do have to pacing back and forth to talk to the IT team here." Obviously Shasa.

"Haris, put a cable here. I'm dizzy to see him go back and forth like that." Leo ordered his assistant.

"Good, Sir."

Before long, a cable phone was attached. Shasa so no need to go back and forth to the IT team room.

'He's this, sometimes good, sometimes cranky, sometimes at will.' Shasa glanced towards Leo and just then their eyes met. Shasa turned his eyes back to the laptop screen.

Leo sees good cooperation in this implementation team. Shasa seems easy to get along with subsidiary employees, even though he just got to know her. Leo felt jealous because many people who could be close to Shasa and Shasa also felt comfortable chatting and joking with them.

Time goes by quickly. Implementation is going well. Everyone is happy with their work today.

"Well, to celebrate today, let's have dinner together!" Shouted manager Iko while patting his hand. Everyone welcomed happily, as did Shasa who followed him by clapping his hands. Not with Leo. He just stared coldly at everyone.

"You go celebrate your hard work today. But Shafira and I couldn't go. We need to talk about other projects. Haris will help you prepare your dinner." Leo interrupted everyone's happiness with his command. Shasa stared intently at Leo. Again he did what he wanted without Shasa's consent.

"Ah, sir, what project do you mean to talk about? We can talk about it when we get back to the office." Shasa ventured to ask in a polite tone.

"You'll find out later." Reply Leo firmly. Then he got up from his chair. "Then I'm leaving now. Have fun." Close Leo with his eyes down the servants one by one and lastly stare coldly at Shasa. Leo walked out of the private room followed by Haris' assistant behind him.

After Leo's death, Shasa apologizes to manager Iko and the other colleagues for not being able to join the dinner.

"Manager Iko, I really want to come with you for dinner. But what is my power that is nothing. Hopefully next time we can eat together." Shasa's face was pinched. He tidied up his bag and immediately went after Leo. As she moved outside, Shasa turned her body again.

"Manager Iko and friends, maybe tomorrow I can't say goodbye to you guys and have to go straight back. See you next time! If you're visiting the headquarters, meet me!" Shasa made a circle with his index finger and thumb while spreading a farewell smile to the people in the room.

Shasa ran after Leo. 'Destroyed is my hope to relax here.' Shasa rubbed his face with both hands.

In the lobby, Shasa only saw her daystand in front of the passenger door of the car. Leo was already in the car. Shasa then approached Haris' assistant.

"The president has been waiting for you, miss." Assistant Haris just spoke flat.

"I didn't ask him to wait for me. Sir, do you know what she's planning?" Shasa asked while pointing in the car.

"I can't even predict what the President wants in the next 1 minute." Especially when you are around Mister, added assistant Haris grumbling in his heart.

Shasa only looks irritated and gets into the car. In the car, Leo wondered what the assistants of Haris and Shasa were talking about outside the car.
