Adventure In The Dark
Tragedy 214 - For him?
...***...
Linda suddenly stopped talking when she realized Elvina was not responding to every sentence that was thrown from her mouth.
"Why are you quiet?" Linda elbowed her best friend's arm and made him reeling from his daydream.
"Huh?"
"Since then you haven't listened to me talk. What's wrong with you? Is something bothering you?" linda asked with a curious face.
Elvina stopped her footsteps for a moment, making Linda also stop.
The woman sighed softly making Linda more convinced that someone was disturbing Elvina's mind.
"Is my speech right? Is something troubling your mind? If that's true, try telling me. Maybe that way you'll feel more relieved."
Elvina still closed her mouth. His head that was originally bowed slowly looked up, clashing with Linda.
Do I have to talk to him? thought Elvina seemed to be weighing.
"Hey! Why are you daydreaming?" Linda shook Elvina's shoulder, trying to make her aware.
"Let's talk somewhere else." Elvina pulls Linda's hand after deciding to tell the woman everything.
Linda walked slightly dragged behind Elvina. The woman, who was very fond of pink, took her to the office garden.
Arriving there, Elvina sat on a bench in the park. Linda took a seat right beside him.
He was still staring at Elvina with a curious look on his face.
Elvina was silent for a moment. He was confused to explain where the problem started. Repeatedly he opened his mouth to say a word, but suddenly stuck in his throat and ended up confused.
"Of tell me something don't just shut up. Soon it's time to come in" said Linda who was getting upset because Elvina kept quiet.
"Okay, I'm listening." Linda shifted her body so faced Elvina.
"Hm. This is about the commandeer" he said.
Linda raised her eyebrows. "You mean deputy director? Leon?" clear, clarify.
"Who else would I call that?"
"What's wrong with her? What did he do to make you dream like that? Did he hurt you? Or did he touch you? Just tell me, let me piss him off!"
"No, no."
"If not, then why?" Linda still doesn't understand.
"Look, aren't you aware that his attitude has been so strange lately?"
"Weird how? I guess the same, there's nothing weird about him."
"That's because you don't know. For almost a week his attitude changed well for me, he never told me to do things that were outside my duties again, after which he always came to visit my work space, and several times he took me out to eat and to go home together." Elvina explains all the events that escaped Linda's supervision.
Indeed, over the past week, Linda's work has been more so that it makes it sometimes difficult for them to meet each other, even at lunch.
"Isn't that common? You have a 'relationship.'" Linda giggled while pressing her last word.
Elvina glared with her gaping mouth open perfectly hearing Linda's words.
"Gosh, I told you that what happened back then was beyond my expectations. He and I have absolutely nothing to do. I've explained everything to you, '" explained Elvina.
"That's for you. But, for him? We never know, do we?" said Linda.
