The Winter Promise
Chapter 131: How Awkward It Is If Others Know!
We also arrived at the office. Because it is lunchtime, many employees go out of the office to find food. There are also some employees who eat in the park in front of the office.
When I arrived inside, I saw Mr. Hari talking to Friska at the secretary table. If you look at the clothes used by Mr. Hari, he seems to want to go somewhere.
“Tumben once you guys come at this time.”
Said Mr. Hari when he saw our arrival.
“Custom sir, now it is UTS and we do not want to go home yet.”
Then an employee came to Maul.
“Maul, you happened to come to the office.”
“What's up?”
“Can you come with me for a moment, there is a little problem in the server section.”
“Good... All of you, I go first.”
Maul left with the employee.
“Rik, we also go to our part yuk!”
“Come!”
Akbar and Riki also left me alone.
I was alone, did I also come to my side to see what he was doing right now.
Hmmmmm...
It doesn't seem necessary, I don't want to bother them. After all, if they really wanted to ask for my help, they would contact me directly like Maul just now.
“You're alone again it looks like Mar.”
I saw Mr. Hari's face that seemed to want to mock me.
“That's.”
“Hei Amar! What are you doing here?”
Brother Malik came and from his appearance, it seems he also wants to go together with Mr. Hari. I also saw Malik carrying a bag in his hand.
“Custom Brother, is changing the atmosphere.”
“Is everything ready Sir?”
Reprove Kak Malik to Pak Hari.
“Already, Friska.. I leave this office to you yes.”
“Good Sir!”
“Where are you two going?”
I ask them.
“I want to go to take care of a cooperation with another company first.”
What firm?
“Then we go first yes.”
“Be careful on the road.”
Mr. Hari and Mr. Malik left us both.
Right now only leaves me and Friska who is getting ready for lunch like that.
Where am I going now? Approaching Maul what is Riki and Akbar huh?
I better go to the roof to relax, then sleep in the mosque for a while until they are done with their respective affairs.
“Mar, do you have time?”
Friska's words stopped my footsteps.
I also looked directly at him.
“Iya, why Kak?”
“Can you accompany me for a moment?”
“Where?”
***
I don't know what's going on right now and why I'm here. Wuah!! I'm so afraid that if there are office employees who see me being here together with Friska, this will definitely be great news in the company.
Mr. Hari will definitely ask for an explanation about this, Riki and Maul will tease me endless because I once said that I do not like Friska.
You must be wondering what makes me panic like this.
Because at this time, I was with Friska to go to a place to eat near the office for lunch.
Maybe you'll take me too much on this, but I think it's a serious matter.
Just try if you think, if there are male employees who compete in getting Friska to see me eating lunch alone with her. They'll assume I'm in that competition.
“What do you want to order Mar?”
Friska asked me very normally, she did not feel the slightest pressure.
Of course he didn't feel it.
Calm down, than I panic like that I better just follow the flow.
I need to get out of this situation quickly.
I also chose the food I wanted to eat, incidentally at that time I had not had lunch.
What should I eat now?
“You don't have to worry about Mar, because I brought you here, I will pay for the food you will order.”
“No Brother, I will pay it myself.”
There's no way I'm gonna let Friska pay for my food. Even though he is a secretary of Pak Hari, he is my subordinate here. I should have paid him to eat.
Friska continued to pay attention to me which made me a little wrong. I don't know what if I'm dealing with a situation like this.
I might be used to having lunch alone with Rina and Miyuki, but it's not unusual for Friska.
I should melt this atmosphere with as little talk as possible.
“Why did Friska take me to lunch? Shouldn't you be having lunch with your friends?”
“My friends have lunch first, because there were guests from other companies who came to the office. So, I had to accompany Mr. Hari first and finally it made me late for lunch.”
So anyway.
...
I need to find another conversation.
“Do you mind having lunch with me Mar?”
Friska feels bad about me.
Does he know that I'm a little uncomfortable being here?
Does my face show that? No way, my face still looks ordinary.
“I don't mind Sis, it's just that I'm afraid if anyone's mistaken when seeing the two of us like this.”
I'm a little embarrassed to say that, because I think my words just now look like I'm very confident that other people think we are lovers.
“Hahaha... I just saw you who are shy like this.”
Brother Friska laughed a little at my attitude.
I can't hide my embarrassment right now.
“When I saw you, I remembered my sister who was at home.”
Friska folded her hands on the table and began the conversation.
“Adik?”
“Yes, I have two younger sisters, one female and the other one male.”
Ok, this is very valuable information for people who like Friska of course.
“My sister is the same age as you while the man is still sitting on the bench SMP.”
“Then where is your sister who looks like you?”
“My sister's.”
No way, what makes it similar to me.
“Similar from where?”
I'm getting curious about that.
“My sister is not completely similar to you, it's just that when she is alone, when she looks at something, and when talking almost similar to me.”
“Hmm.. So.”
I didn't know Friska was watching me to the fullest extent.
Have I ever been alone?
As far as I was in the office, I was always with Riki or Maul and lately Akbar. Yes even now I was left by the three of them, but I was never alone at all.
“Maybe it is rude to regard my boss as such a sister.”
Actually the above words are Mr. Hari's words. I just imitate it because I think it's really cool.
“And also I don't have to worry about anything if invite you.”
Sak Friska's.
“What to worry about?”
“Most other male employees will misunderstand if I invite them to lunch together and it is very troublesome, whereas I just want to invite them to lunch no more.”
Love is blind, anyone will misunderstand if someone he loves invites him to go or eat together, especially just the two.
“But I already know how you are because it is often told by Mr. Hari.”
“What did Mr Hari tell you about me?”
I got a little curious about this, hopefully he doesn't say anything no to me.
“Intinya Pak Hari said that you are a young man whose mind is slightly different from others.”
Ok, if that's all he says I don't really have a problem with it. I guess he said a no-no about me.
“When Pak Hari said that?”
“As I've just worked here.”
Basic Pak Hari, he should have made my image good in front of the other employees when he first entered.
“Didn't you like the older man in your arms Mar?”
Hearing that made me both nervous and surprised.
I know that he just mocked me.
It is fitting that many people become misunderstood if invited by him if the way to play like this.
“Are you just hurting me, sister?”
“Hahaha... I'm so glad to see your face like that. Because when in the office, you seem silent and look closed once.”
Silence huh?
He's the only one who never sees me when I talk a lot.
“Do you already have a girlfriend Mar?”
This woman, why always ask something so sensitive.
“Why should we talk about this?”
I was tired of talking about this while I was on the bus.
“Not this is a normal talk for us to talk about?”
Again, that word came out.
“So, do you already have a girlfriend?”
“But.”
“Although you already have your own money and a good job?”
Friska was astonished when she heard that.
“I don't want to have a girlfriend for now.”
“Why?”
“I myself do not know the reason, but for now I do not want to think about it first.”
There's no time for me to think about such a thing.
“You are the same as Mr. Hari.”
Friska also plays the tissue paper in her hand.
“What's with Pak Hari?”
“Pak Hari does not seem to care so much about what his name is dating, he is too focused on his work.”
He doesn't know what really happened to Mr. Hari.
“Even when we were alone in his room, he only talked about work. Maybe he will ask something else for a distraction next time he will discuss the work again.”
That's what Mr. Hari is like, he's a crazy guy whose name works. People like him should not be suitable to work in Indonesia.
“Pak that day was indeed a very crazy person at work.”
“You were right it was Mar.”
Eventually, both of our meals arrived and we ate them.
“How about your lunch hour, sister?”
I asked because lunch is over soon.
“Just relax for that, usually if it is like this, Mr. Hari gives me an extra half hour for lunch.”
In that case, I can finish the food unhurriedly.
“Oh yes Mar, have you been friends with Maul and RIGi for a long time?”
“We've been friends since SMP.”
“Simply you guys look familiar.”
“There have been so many stupid things that we have done so far, and it has kept us close to what we are today.”
But most of those stupid things were not done by me, but Riki and Maul did.
Although we looked close, but I also had a fight with the two of them.
Yes, our fights usually don't last long.
I also never fought with people for long, because I think it was very tiring. My energy was wasted on something so futile as that.
“Enak once a young time.”
“Not that Friska is also young?”
“True too.”
What's wrong with this girl?
But at least I'm no longer awkward to talk to Friska, and I know Friska better than she is.
Though I used to be very reluctant to approach him, even I never approached him while alone.
“What about the office lately? When will the next meeting be held?”
“It looks like the next meeting will be held again after waiting for the results of the haul out.”
The results came out yes... It was a long time ago, said Malik, it was just taken in May.
“So during a small meeting me and Maul do not need to come?”
“Usually Pak Hari only held it with section head only.”
“Actually I do not know what my position is actually in this office, because I consider that the work I do is too relaxed as a superior.”
I don't know if his boss is like this, but I always see Mr. Hari busy with the work he does.
“Maybe Pak Hari currently wants you and Maul to focus on your education first.”
“Pak Hari also said the same thing while giving the title of Special Intern to me.”
I guess when Mr. Hari gave me the job, he told me to take care of all the interns in this office, but he didn't.
“What have you been doing all this time Mar?”
“I only check the report given by the editor-in-chief and publishing section only.”
Actually, just how many months ago the head of the printing department also gave his report to me. Precisely when Comic Universe has published a large number of comics and began many employees who were placed in the publishing section.
“Not that it is the work of a superior, you should be proud of yourself Mar.”
“I was used to a lot of work when the start of this company was built. So when I get a little job, I just feel weird.”
“You are indeed similar to Mr. Hari when you are thinking about work.”
Is it really like that?
“Perhaps because I have been talking and working with Mr. Hari for a long time, so the memikriannya a little into me.”
“Maybe.”
We also ate the food we ordered.
...
“Have you finished eating Mar? If it's better we go back to the office.”
“I'm done Kak.”
“Then, I want to pay the bill first.”
Friska took out her wallet and wanted to take the bill on the table.
“Let me pay him Kak.”
I took the bill faster than he did and went straight to the cashier to pay it.
