The Secret of Office Girl

56. You're Here

Kirana went into the living room. There was Balin who had been wearing a casual dress while sitting on the sofa waiting for the arrival of his daughter.

Kirana threw herself to sit on the sofa opposite Balin.

He was prepared with all his reports. Not in vain all this time she worked as an office girl.

However, before Kirana could speak, Balin slightly tilted his head, scrutinizing the red hue on Kirana's cheek.

“What's with your cheek?” Balin asked, pretending not to know.

“Oh, this,” Kirana pointed at her left cheek. “A-me... I was..”.

“You were slapped by Raka's mother, right?”

Slowly Kirana nodded her head in response. He wouldn't lie to his father.

Meanwhile, Balin could only sigh, crackle and massage the base of his nose. It was obvious that he was very frustrated.

“Papa wants you to stop being Raya immediately. Today too, end all your skits, Kirana,” Balin said in a tone full of guidance.

“Indeed I will do, Papa. Because I have learned of the spies working at Irawan Group.”

“Oh yes, who is it?”

“That man is Clara, and he works as a spy on orders from his father. He is also the mastermind behind the toxic coffee case.”

Seeing Balin who was just silent, Kirana continued her report.

“Clara tells Mae, and Mae throws orders at Neneng. But Papa take it easy. Now Mae is already languishing in jail for her own stupidity, so we don't have to bother to kick her out of Irawan Group.”

“You're sure, Clara was?” 

“I have proof, Papa.”

Kirana showed footage of the video recording Hardi and Clara's conversation while in the apartment.

Balin was quite snapped looking at Clara's father's face. The man has a broken face, posture to a voice very similar to Harsa Russell, Kirana's biological father.

Balin threw away his face, and clenched his hands. Suddenly his mood became more unsettled.

“And there's one thing I want to know.”

“What is it?”

“His father was Clara named Hardi Russell. Does Papa know him?”

Balin opened his eyes. The grip of his hand grew tighter, in order to hide the trembling feeling that could not be removed.

“Papa don't know.”

Balin was honest. He did not know Hardi Russell. However, from his name and also physical traits, he was very sure Hardi Russell must have a relationship with Kirana's real father.

The strange gelagat Balin was captured by Kirana's narrowed eyes.

“Papa sure don't know?”

“Already Kirana. You better rest in your room,” Balin tries to distract.

“There's something Papa's hiding from me. It must have something to do with Hardi Russell, right? I want to know, Pa. Why does he have evil intentions on Papa? Is he Papa's business rival? Or Papa's enemies in the past?” cycar Kirana's.

"Papa said, Papa doesn't know him, Kirana."

At the same time, in the front garden of the family home Mahendra Sadewa sat on a park bench while playing video games.

Neneng is also in the park. Since then he had been stalking Sadewa with a shy look of a cat.

Slowly but surely Neneng ventured closer to Sadewa. He made up his mind to express his love for the man and hoped his love would be avenged.

Once beside the bench, nervousness increased. Unable to stare directly, making Neneng turn his eyes on bougainvillea plants not far from him.

So it is as if Neneng is talking to bougainvillea, not to swadeva.

"Mr Sadewa, I'd like some advice. I've long admired someone, better shoot directly or not huh?" asked Neneng with a smile.

"Shoot, shoot" Sadewa said instead of answering Neneng's question. But he was furious shooting at the game that was being played.

However, Neneng who did not look towards Sadewa, had already mistakenly thought. He's jumped happy.

"Then Neneng would shoot Mr. Sadewa. Because Neneng fell in love with Mister."

Neneng took a deep breath, the smile on her lips did not fade for a second, and her hands were busy plucking the petals of bougainvillea.

"If Mr. Sadewa refuses, I will go home."

"Don't!" pekik Sadewa when the avatar in his video game almost died.

Neneng jumped in shock by Sadewa's screeches. But he also grew happy, thinking Sadewa was holding him back from returning home.

"Neneng realized, Neneng was too pebble for Mr. Sadewa who was a diamond. Moreover, Mr. Sadewa wants to be betrothed. Mr Sadewa's own feelings how did he know he would be betrothed to Miss Sunny?"

"Ah, shit," rutuk Sadewa see the writing 'game over' on the screen hp.

"Damn?" reanimated Neneng developing a smile.

"So Mr. Sadewa doesn't want that matchmaking."

Sadewa clucked in annoyance at his defeat, and at that very moment he saw a car coming into the courtyard of the house.

Raka got out of the car and talked to a guard who was about to drive in.

Though Sadewa knew in the living room there was Balin and Kirana was chatting. So Sadewa took the initiative to prevent Raka from meeting with Kirana.

Sadewa got up from her seat and walked over to Raka. 

While Neneng who did not know Sadewa was no longer in his place was still babbling while staring at bougainvillea flowers.

"So, did you accept my love? Mister? Lord sadewa?"

Because there is no reason, Neneng turned around and was surprised to find that swadewa no longer sat on the bench.

"Well, where's Mr Sadewa? Who have I been talking to since? Are they ghosts?"

Neneng looked to the left right, shuddered with goosebumps, and rubbed his nape. He shook his hands as if he was expelling something invisible.

"Hush, hush, ghost, Neneng pull Neneng's words. Neneng did not like ghosts.hush, go there! do not disturb Neneng, hush," said Neneng in a frightened tone.

"If ghosts want to find a mate, I have a friend named Mae. He's more bohay than Neneng. So move on just disturb Mae."

As fast as lightning Neneng ran across the park and entered the house through the back door.

In front of the terrace, Sadewa confronted Raka who slightly lowered his head in salute.

“Mr Nakula,” greet Raka.

“I Sadewa, not Nakula,” replied Sadewa casually.

“Oh, sorry.”

“There is a need for Raka's secretary to come here?”

“I just want to return Mr. Balin's wallet left in my car,” said Raka showed Balin's wallet.

“Papa is talking to Kirana. Just leave the wallet to me,” Sadewa reached out.

Raka also gave me a wallet. Along with her who heard a voice from inside the living room.

“If Papa doesn't want to tell me, I can ask that person directly as soon as he's arrested by the police.”

It was like the voice of Raya. Inner Raka in the heart.

Raka shook her head. Trying to reject the prejudice that stopped. 

When Raka was about to turn around wanting to return to the car, just then the door opened and Kirana's figure appeared from there.

Kirana comes out of the house intending to end the debate with her father. However, he was surprised by the existence of Raka who was on the terrace with Sadewa.

Both Kirana and Raka opened their eyes, both in disbelief.

"Raya, why are you here?"
