(NON) PRETEND HUSBAND
Back to Routine

"Camera 1, Standby... Camera 1 take!"

Kian highlighted the faces of the speakers who this time filled a newsletter event in Studio 1. Coordination of his hands, ears and eyes is needed while behind the Grass Valley camera he is currently using to record. His eyes stared intently at the monitor, his ears solemnly listening to the command from the director while his right and left hands moved between the buttons and the handle that was on the camera. You need to make sure the image you are recording gets the best angle but still focus on the object.

"Camera 1 wide. camera two standby!"

Kian turned the tip of the small handle to zoom in on the object for a few seconds before then the two cameras switched recording.

For an hour Kian did his job well before then he took a break to record the next event.

Kian pressed a button that read 'coffee' on the vending machine and before long a bottle of coffee rolled from inside the machine. Kian took the coffee out of the delivery port and brought it to the Green area.

While sitting back and sipping his coffee, Kian checked the phone that had been silent and airplane mode while in the studio.

Several calls from foreign numbers appear in the notification bar. Take that number seriously. He even forgot he didn't save Ann's number last night. While looking for the number that last night kisscall him, Kian gulped down his coffee again slowly.

"Mas More!!!!" 

Kian jerked, he suddenly looked up and saw Risa running to her desk quickly.

While adjusting her blooming breath as she ran from the end of the hallway towards the Green Area, Risa pulled out a chair and sat down beside Kian.

"Now, drink." Kian handed a bottle of mineral water available on the table to Risa.

"Thank you! Huh .. phew!" Risa received the bottle and opened the lid slowly.

Turning to stare at her phone screen again, she found Ann's number and saved it to her contacts.

"Who is Annastasia??" Risa looked at Kian full of probes after peeking at the man's phone.

Gobbling, he hurriedly flipped his phone and turned his head nervously at Risa.

"Friends!" sahut Kian.

Risa squinted her eyes and leaned her body at Kian. "New shit, huh?"

Kian shakes fast. Right after that his phone vibrated and rang loudly.

"Hayoo, I'm lying, huh!?" cecar Risa was curious while watching Kian's phone that was held tightly by the man.

"Awhile, Risa. I'll pick up the phone first!" Kian stood up and passed from Risa before the girl asked all sorts of questions.

Kian noticed a row of foreign numbers on his phone screen. Is this the Wedding Organizer number that Mr. Nathan spoke about yesterday?

A little hesitant, I finally picked up the phone.

"Hello," he said wrongly.

"Hello, am I really talking to Mas Kiandro Bagaskara?!" ask a woman at the end.

"Yes, right. I'm Kian."

"Sorry in advance, we are from Fairytale Wedding Organizer. I got Mas Kian's number from Mr. Jonathan Winata. Can we arrange a time to meet later this afternoon?"

Sighing in panic, he wasn't even ready to meet them.

"We made an appointment with Annastasia's sister to meet at five in the afternoon. Can Mas Kian also be present?"

"Ann will come too?" tanya Kian can't believe it.

"Yes, right. I just called Ann and she agreed to meet at five in the afternoon."

He breathed a long. "okay, okay. I'm gonna come. Just send the address via chat to this number."

"Rubby, Ma'am!"

Kian exhaled heavily and turned to Risa who was still at home sitting in the place earlier. Kian swiftly returned to the table and put his phone in his pants pocket.

Risa smiled broadly as she saw Kian approaching her and sitting before her.

"Well, isn't it lunch?" ask Risa.

Kian shook his head and grabbed the remaining half of the coffee bottle. "I promised to buy you lunch, right? What do you want to eat, Ris?"

"I ate earlier. I can change for dinner, right?"

"Later tonight I have an event after work. Tomorrow, will you?"

"What's so busy now? How can't be disturbed!" Risa started to pout.

"Busy family business. I'm sorry, Ris," Pinta Kian lied.

Risa sighed tiredly and looked at Kian wistfully. "When I want to be able to deket the same Mas Kian. You can help with anything you need. Why is it so difficult to make Deketin Mas Kian," complained Risa.

Kian. He looked at Risa with a huff. "We are close as friends. How else do you want to get close?"

"Can't it be more than that?!" sosor Risa's.

"You mean?" Cuts with shock.

Risa rolled her eyes with anxiety. Why is it insensitive, anyway!

"I mean ak—" not finished Risa talk, Kian's phone reads again.

Kian jumped in shock and immediately pulled out his phone.

Annastasia is calling ...

Risa had seen the name on the screen and finally she began to understand, it seems there is something between Kian and the woman named Annastasia.

Kian stood back up and moved away from Risa to pick up the phone from Ann.

"Hello."

"And will you come too?"

Kian turned to Risa who was now pensive looking out the office window.

"Yes. I'm coming."

"Well, there's something I want to talk to you about!" bright Ann at the end there.

Kian took a breath that felt increasingly heavy after Risa expressed her feelings earlier.

"OKAY. See you!"

Tutt. tuttt...

He watched his phone screen in shock. Ann disconnected the phone just like that. When she turned around and went back to her desk, Risa was no longer there.

He rubbed his face in frustration. Though all this time he only considered Risa as a sister. He never thought if Risa misrespected and even harbored feelings for him. His age and Risa were seven years adrift, the girl was still very unstable. Kian paid attention to Risa solely because he only considered the girl as a junior who needed guidance from seniors. While walking back to his department room, Kian several times tried to relax by exhaling and breathing periodically.

"Sorry, Risa," lirih Kian was full of regrets.
