"How's Dea doing,?" Dean asked back.
"You don't have to worry about the girl that someone else has,"Sindir Dion was subtle.
Dean smiled in anguish. He stepped towards where his motorbike was parked. Fortunately there was no damage to the motor, only scratches on the body of the motor. So he didn't have to take the bike to the garage.
"I waited at the cafe opposite," said Dion who also returned to ride his motorcycle.
This is where the two of them are, in a cafe across the street not far from the Insurance office.
"What do you want to talk about,?"dean asked, starting a conversation.
Dion did not immediately reply, he took a sip of his drink first.
"Please stay away from Dea" said Dion firmly.
Dean was silent with his flat face as if he already knew the purpose of Dion talking to him.
"We've been dating since High School, and don't think about being third" Dion continued.
Dean laughed offingly. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.
"You want to smoke, huh,?"go to Dion.
"I don't smoke,"
"Good, because smoking is not good for health" Dean said as he lit a cigarette.
Dean inhaled in his cigarette, then exhaled his smoke in front of Dion. Dean grinned at Dion coughing as he drove away the cigarette smoke that hit him.
"Why are you so afraid that I'll take Dea from you, do you doubt your lover,?"said Dean.
Dion gritted his teeth. His hands clenched furiously under the table.
"I won't take the girl away from you, but if she runs into my arms I won't turn her down" Dean said.
"Ck, so confident,"
"Why not, if you hurt her doesn't rule out the possibility that she'll run to me,"
Dion's getting furious.
"If you ask me to stay away from him, I can't. We work as a team. We are always together every day. Be mature, if you love each other no one can separate you. The key to that relationship is trust." Dean looked at his rival sharply. He realized Dion was still unstable, and the boy could not control his emotions well.
"You know him first, but that doesn't mean I just knew him yesterday can't be with him" Dean said. Somehow he was happy to see Dion's upset face. The young man looked worried if he was angry.
"Go past my body, and you can take it from me" Dion sprayed.
Dean just chuckled, it seemed like this young man in front of him was really afraid that he would snatch his woman. He is not that kind of person. Although he was aware of the feelings he had for Dea.
Dion threw his gaze the other way. The veins on his forehead appear prominent indicating he is holding back growling.
"If there's nothing you're going to say, I'm going to leave" Dean said, rising from his seat.
Dion flinching. Only the roar of his rough breathing sounded
"Ah one more, I wish we could be friends" Dean said.
Dean stepped out of the cafe. Dion was still sitting in his chair. He remained silent for a long time before leaving as well.

The next day Dea returned to work. He doesn't want to take a day off, even if he has a reason for it.
"Dea, how you doing. I heard yesterday that you were with Dean driving around, "sari asked.
"I'm fine, brother, just a small wound" Dea replied.
Tika who passed them indifferently. Don't ask to see that you don't. Dea does not bother, because he is not a person who thirsts for attention.
Mr. Bagas forbade Dea for such an extraordinary task. He was asked to stay in the office to help other employees.
"Eh, help bring these files to the Bagas pack room," Tika told Dea.
"Okay, brother," Dea answered taking a stack of maps from Tika's hand.
"What the hell are you, how about him. Keep what he wants to do, "this is Tika.
"No, brother, I did. I can, though,!". Dea soon passed not wanting to provoke a commotion.
Being in the office all day makes it comfortable. Moreover, there was no Dean as his interlocutor. Dea was still awkward with the other employees.
The phone in his pocket vibrated, he reached into his phone. Dea read a message from Dion.
📩Do not forget to take medicine, let your wounds heal quickly.
📩Good sir doctor,,,
After replying to Dion's message, Dea breezed towards the pantry. He took out a few packs of medicine from his bag. Just as he was about to open a pill medicine from his package, it accidentally fell to the side of the closet. Beside the closet there is a little space. Dea squatted down to take the medicine. Because his hand did not reach out, he went deeper and deeper into the body so that his body was invisible because it was blocked by the dispenser.
Dea grabbed the medicine with her index finger, as she was about to stand up. Two people entered the pantry.
"You're actually having the same problem as Dea, are you,?"ask Sari.
"Why is that, then,?"ketus Tika's.
Dea abandoned her intention to stand up. He stayed where he was hiding next to the closet.
"She fell off the bike yesterday, but you don't feel the same, tell me this,"
"People like her don't need to be pitied." replied Tika.
"You mean," Sari scrunched her forehead.
"Don't you feel weird or suspicious. Why is he working here,?"
"Well, maybe he was lucky. Why don't you accept that he can work here,?"sari asked increasingly clueless.
"Where to accept, he was just a High School graduate with the right grades - hard work can be accepted. While my sister, who was obviously a graduate graduate was rejected. Why try, surely because he has a special relationship with Mr. Bagas, or don't - don't, _" Sari quickly silenced Tika's mouth before anyone heard her.
Degs..
Dea's blood rippled. Now he understood why Tika hated him so much.
"Don't just talk to you," Sari was angry.
"I speak according to the facts, what is the reason Mr. Bagas accepted he tried," Tika remained in his stance.
Dea gulped roughly at his saliva, the more he dared not come out. He remembered that during the interview there were two other women who came besides him and Dean. So one of those women was Tika's younger sister.
"I don't see any strange chatter between him and Mr. Bagas, let alone Dea also rarely in the office" Sari denied.
"Where might they show their closeness in the office,"
"Have it, don't accuse without proof." Sari turned her body and came out of the pantry.
Tika snorted in annoyance, then she also caught up with Sari.
As soon as there was no one left, Dea came out of her hiding place. He sits limp on the chair. The hard-earned medicine he took was not immediately he drank but played it. After that Dea threw the medicine into the trash.
Dea rushes out the pantry towards the file storage space. He was curious about the biodata of the two female applicants. Long enough Dea searched until he finally found the former cover letter. Dea checked the date of entry of the letter, then opened the contents.
His eyes widened, reading the list of educational history of the two applicants. The other is a graduate from a state university. And the other three Diplomas with work experience in the field of marketing one year. Judging from the file sent, of course the two women should have been accepted.
"But why me, then,?"inner Dea.
He leaned his body into the closet. Dea's mind began to frown, in fact he was also curious about the reason Mr. Bagas received it. Of course Tika's accusation is not true. He did not know Mr. Bagas before , especially until he had an inappropriate relationship.
"What are you doing here,?"
Dea's daydreams instantly froze, seeing Dean appear in the room. Dea wavered, he returned the application papers back to their place.
