"Olivia!"
Olivia, who was checking the statistical chart that one of her coworkers had just ushered in, was surprised by Claire's voice greeting her.
"I asked Louis for help, but Louis told me to ask you for help, to check on my work."
When Olivia raised her gaze and looked at Claire who was standing near her desk, Claire with a face that Olivia could not understand, immediately expressed her purpose and purpose, met Olivia.
Without responding directly to Claire's words, Olivia tilted her head, so she could see Louis sitting at her desk, which was in the corner of the room.
Louis seemed to be busy with his own work, and there was absolutely no sign that he would look towards Olivia at that time.
"I'm still checking this!" Olivia pointed to her computer screen that was on.
"I'm sorry that might just bother you, Olivia. But, I'm not at all sure of what I'm working on," Claire seemed pushy.
If Olivia can speak truthfully, Olivia is in no mood to help Claire, who seems to be more than just that, until she comes to see Olivia.
Moreover, Claire's part of the division was very light work, just typing in an existing file of notes, and putting it into the main database.
What does Claire not know?
Can't Claire use a computer program? But of course it's impossible.
So Olivia figured, if Claire was just looking for an excuse, to ask for help from Louis, to seek the attention of the man.
And in order not to make her pretense clear, Claire had to go to Olivia, after Louis had told her that.
"Wait a minute! I'll follow you to your desk" Olivia said, staring back at her computer screen.
Despite her reluctance, Olivia goes to Claire's desk, all to satisfy her curiosity, for Claire's reasons, to be helped by Louis or Olivia.
After seeing Claire's work for about five minutes, Olivia was able to conclude that it was true.
Claire was just looking for an excuse, and it really only made Olivia feel annoyed.
Claire pretends to be stupid, although it is very annoying, because it is just a waste of Olivia's time, but Olivia tries everything she can to keep her calm.
"This way!" olivia said, then showed the typing method on the computer, to Claire. "You can do it, right?!"
"Oh, yes. I-i can. Thank you," said Claire, flat.
"If it's just like this, next time, you won't have to wait for me to help you....
... Everyone here who can use a computer, then they can also ask for help" said Olivia.
"Yes," Claire replied, short and flat.
Shaking her head, Olivia walked up to Louis' desk, then, slightly bowing near Louis, Olivia then said,
"Next time, you better help Claire! Or just ask someone else! Don't involve me! I'm tired of my job!"
Louis seemed to flinch, upon hearing Olivia's words, and it was as if there was something he wanted to convey to Olivia.
But before Louis could say anything, Olivia quickly walked away, back to her desk, to continue her work that had been delayed.
Louis did not seem to give up, and soon followed Olivia, then said, saying,
"Why do you seem to blame me for his incompetence? It's not me who's taking it to work!"
Olivia lifted her gaze, and looked at Louis fixedly.
"But you directed him, to ask me for help!" sahut Olivia, cynic.
"That's it! ... Don't bother me! I don't want to work overtime anymore today" Olivia continued, then looked back at her computer screen that was still on.
"The file is done I checked. But you don't have to take him to the manager....
... I'll do it, because there's something I want to talk to her about" said Louis, who was still standing near Olivia's desk.
"As far as you are!" olivia, without taking her eyes off her computer screen.
"Huuufft ...!" Olivia snorted in annoyance, after she felt sure that the sound of her heavy breathing would not be reached by Louis's hearing.
***
"Olivia! You're having lunch with me, right?" ask Louis.
Olivia, who had just turned off her computer during the lunch break, looked only at Louis, and did not immediately answer him.
Olivia then took her wallet and cell phone, then stood up from her seat. "Yes. Let's go!"
Before entering the elevator, Olivia had time to check the screen of her phone, but nothing too interesting there.
Thus, Olivia ended up just holding the phone with her wallet for granted.
"Where are we having lunch?" ask Olivia.
"Hm ... Do you want to eat outside? I'll buy it," take Louis.
"As far as you are" said Olivia flatly.
It was the last conversation, between Louis and Olivia, and the two were both unwilling to start a new conversation.
Using Louis's car, they both went to a restaurant not too far from the office.
Upon arriving at the restaurant, and they both had a seat there, then Louis invited Olivia to talk to him.
"You look different since noon yesterday. What's wrong with you?" louis opened the conversation.
"Huuufft ...!" Olivia grunts violently. "You can see my work, right?! Do I have to look excited, even if I'm tired?"
"Hm ... I'm sorry ... I thought you were mad at me. Or because you already have a new friend" said Louis.
"Louis! Whatchu mean?" sahut Olivia ketus, while frowning deeply.
"Geez ...! I'm just kidding, Olivia ...!" louis said slowly.
"Huuufft ...!" Olivia grunted again.
"I'm sorry too. I know I might be too sensitive. I haven't taken overtime in a long time, and it feels really tiring....
... To the extent that, this morning I was almost late for work," said Olivia reasoned.
"Olivia ...! You know you can call me. I can pick you up" Louis said.
"Yeah, right! Maybe, we're both late" said Olivia.
The residence of Olivia and Louis, in the opposite direction, and the office where they worked, were in the middle of it.
So, if Louis picks up Olivia to go to work together, then he'll just pass the office building, to go to Olivia's apartment.
"I can leave early" said Louis.
"Easy! Its alright. I don't want to trouble you" said Olivia, then looked at the food menu book in the restaurant.
"Can I order anything?" ask Olivia.
"Yes. Just order what you want" replied Louis.
As the waiter approaches, Olivia delivers her order, and so does Louis, who also mentions the food she wants.
"Sir Andersen seems to be close to you" Louis said. "Since when have you been able to get in touch with him?"
"just now. We were able to meet in person back then, by accident," Olivia replied. "Why indeed?"
"It's okay. I just feel astonished. Because before, Sir Andersen was never seen with you" Louis said.
"Are you interested in him?" louis continued, sounding to ask cautiously.
"Who's the woman in our office, who's not interested in her?" sahut Olivia's.
