“Log in!”
Kenzie opens the door to Abi's room. He went straight to Abi's desk and sat down in front of her. Kenzie patiently waited for his father to finish his job first. Before long, Abi put the file in his hand on the table and looked at the child.
Abi's sharp gaze was enough to make Kenzie shudder as well. There is no term child and father in the office. Currently they are superiors and subordinates. And Kenzie is ready to accept the consequences of his decision to cancel Cheryl as the brand ambassador of the latest apparel product to be issued Metro East.
Abi is still Abi. As a superior, he will be strict with all his employees, including Kenzie. The choice of taking Cheryl as a brand ambassador was the decision of the Kenzie team. The man never interfered because he was convinced of the decision the child made. But as launch time approached, Kenzie abruptly canceled it. This alone made him wonder.
“You must already know the reason I called you.”
“Iya sir.”
“Then what was the reason you canceled the contract signing with Cheryl? Do you realize the launch time is getting closer? Finding the right model is not as easy as turning the palm of the hand. Are you aware of that?”
Kenzie paused for a moment, thinking what was the right answer to give his superior. Since he was on the road, he still had not found the right reason. Abi leaned his back against the work chair, his eyes fixed on Kenzie who was still silent.
“Why silence? Can't give an answer?”
“Not so sir.”
“Then what? Do you think I don't have a job until I have to hear Cheryl's whining about the contract cancellation!”
Abi patted the file on the table strongly to make a loud noise. Kenzie took a deep breath and ventured to look at his father and boss. Although he knew the reason he would reveal was more personal, but he had no other choice.
“As atittude, Cheryl does not meet the criteria as our brand ambassador, sir. I apologize for not finding out more about him before agreeing to the PR.” divis proposal
“What do you mean? Say it clearly!”
“During this Metro East not much use brand ambassador for our apparel products. Each chosen is in accordance with the criteria desired by our side and has never had problems before or when becoming a brand ambassador. But this time we, in particular, made a mistake. Cheryl can't keep her speech and attitude.”
“Where do you know? Has he ever been rude or rude to you?”
“Not on me sir, but on my secretary, Nara.”
Without further explaining Abi already knows what the real reason Kenzie canceled the signing of a contract with Cheryl. His son must have done it to avenge Cheryl's actions on Nara. And it indirectly shows how Kenzie really feels about Nara. But Abi still did not release the child easily.
“He insulted Nara as your secretary or as a private?”
“As a personal.”
“Then it has nothing to do with work. You know very well in work you have to be professional, separating personal affairs with work. What are you doing what is professional? You risked our project just for your personal interest. What is a worthy action for a vice CEO?!”
“Sorry sir, once again I'm sorry. But I still can't make Cheryl our brand ambassador. I will be responsible, find a replacement as soon as possible and also find the right reason for the cancellation of the contract. Reasons that will strengthen my decision.”
“I give you 1x24 hours! If you can't give the right reasons, then sign a contract with Cheryl according to the original plan.”
“Good sir. Then, excuse me.”
Kanzie stood up from his seat. The man lowered his head for a moment towards Abi then walked out of the room of his superior. Abi picks up the phone handle next to him then contacts Fadil to call Fathan facing him.
Five minutes later Fathan arrived in the room. Abi invited his assistant to sit down. Seeing the look on Abi's unfriendly face, Fathan was quite ravenous as well.
“What has Kenzie been asking for lately?”
“Meanour father?”
“Did he ask for information about someone?”
“Kenzie asked me to find information about Lucky as well as Veruca. Both are friends of Naya. Then last night he also asked for information about Chika, all detailed information about Chika including if the girl had made a fatal mistake.”
“Do you have it?”
“Already sir. For Lucky and Veruca info I have given to Kenzie, for Chika is still in my pack.”
“Give everything to me.”
“Good sir.”
“Fixed keep an eye on Kenzie.”
“Good sir.”
Fathan got up from his seat then rushed out of the room. The man breathed a sigh of relief once he got outside. Fadil smiled faintly looking at Fathan's tense face.
☘️☘️☘️
It had been half an hour that Kenzie was pacing around in his room. His brain continues to spin looking for loopholes to be able to thwart Cheryl's contract. After all, he would not allow the girl to become a brand ambassador. Cheryl could be more arbitrary to Nara if she gets the position.
Kenzie then sat himself in his great chair. He still couldn't focus on the pile of files on his desk. The man turned his chair around. The seat stopped when he saw the brown envelope delivered by Fathan. The man quickly opened it.
Carefully read one by one the information Fathan gave about Chika. Then his attention was focused on the success of Chika won the title of beauty queen two years ago. At that time it was rumored that if Ferina, one of her competitors did not resign, then the woman who would win the title.
Intrigued by it, Kenzie sought related news about Ferina. What reasons led him to withdraw from the competition. Kenzie continued to read the articles one by one. Until finally he found an article from an unknown author who said that the reason Ferina resigned because her face was exposed to irritation when trying a cosmetic brand.
Kenzie then searched for photos during the competition. From the beginning until the time of the coronation. Then Kenzie's eyes caught Cheryl standing behind Chika. Cheryl and Chika are best friends. Cheryl is always there if Chika takes part in a competition or photo shoot. Because she's the one responsible for her best friend's makeup.
Kenzie then re-examined the file given by Fathan. Not much information was obtained and there was not a single piece of information about the girl's ugliness. But Kenzie believes there is something he can get from the beauty queen competition. His premonition says there is a conspiracy to bring down Ferina and make Chika the champion.
The man took his cell phone and contacted Duta, one of his family's security members who is currently Dendi's assistant. Kenzie asked the Ambassador to seek information about Ferina, especially during the incident two years ago. He was convinced that Cheryl and Chika were involved in the woman's resignation.
☘️☘️☘️
A message notification went into Freya's phone, making the girl pause her work. His smile expands when he sees a message from Ravin who invites him to watch in the bisokop after work hours. He quickly replies to Ravin's message and agrees to her invitation.
Freya reread the report that just finished. After nothing less, the girl gave the report to the superior. But his boss asks Freya to give it directly to Ravin. Of course, the girl was happy to do it.
With excited steps, Freya entered the elevator that would take her to the floor of the place where Ravin's room was located. After knocking on the door, the girl went straight inside. His smile immediately faded when he saw Adel had been there first. His heart grew hotter seeing Ravin speak while throwing a smile at his rival.
Freya approached and gave a report in her hand. Ravin didn't read the report right away, just put it on his desk. Freya glanced at Adel who was sitting in front of Ravin's desk. Adel did the same. For a moment the eyes of the two met. Their gazes were filled with the scent of competition.
The two women's face-to-face event ended when someone walked into the room. This time Remy who came to provide a draft contract with one of the clients who will use the services of Arjuna hotel. Ravin let everyone sit on the couch. He also sat there.
Adel immediately pulled Ravin's arm to sit by his side as soon as he saw the man approaching. It was successful in making Freya inflamed. Unlike Remy, he instead shifted his body to be able to sit close to Freya. Ravin looked in annoyance at the man before him.
“Let's lunch hour soon. What if we eat together?” take Adel.
“I can't. There was a meeting with Mr. Ezra,” replied Ravin.
“Eat with us, Del. Where are we going to eat Frey?” ask Freya.
“Sorry I'm fasting again. You two eat.”
“Oh..”
Ravin silently smiled at Freya's reply. She was grateful the girl rejected Remy's invitation. Actually the reason for the meeting is only Ravin's essay. She doesn't want Freya to misunderstand her acceptance of Adel's lunch.
“Eh tomorrow is off. What if we come home from work later watch?” Adel is still trying.
“Nah really. Abis iftar we watch Frey, how? Double date is so cute,” Remy blinks his eyes at Adel.
“Hmm.. can also, Brake. Yes sir Ravin.”
Ravin looked at Freya for a moment. There was no reaction from the girl. Finally Ravin nodded his head. Adel's joyful cheers were heard, and he was finally able to spend time with Ravin. It's all right that Freya's coming with them, Remy's gonna keep her busy.
“Sorry sir, it's been a break. Excuse me first, want to pray.”
Freya got up from her seat and walked out of the room without waiting for a response from Ravin. The girl got into the elevator. He did not return to his room but went upstairs. Freya chose to cool the heart and head in Ezra's room. At least there he can sleep in the director's private room.
Freya's arrival without permission surprised Ezra who was enjoying lunch with Dilara. Not wanting to be a smokeless mosquito repellent, Freya chose to go into the room and lay her body on the mattress. His heart was still upset to see Ravin's closeness with Adel. Even the man could smile widely and laugh loosely with Adel. Ezra went into the room and sat down on the side of the bed.
“Frey.. eat first yuk.”
“But laper. My brother ate there. Poor Dila dikilain.”
“You why did he have that face?”
“Ngga. Again join aja.”
“Shalat used to be there not to be upset.”
“Report sister, not galau.”
“Thin difference. Praying that Abis is eating. Brother wait outside. The kitchen is in the closet.”
“Emang kak Ezra if pray use mukena as well?”
A toyoran lands on Freya's head. The girl chuckled amusedly. Amidst his frustration, he was still able to tease his older cousin. Freya lifted her body from the bed after Ezra's death and went into the bathroom to worship.
The completion of Freya's mood prayers improved slightly. The girl put her body back on the bed. Before long he felt the side of his bed move, a sign that someone was sitting there. But Freya didn't care. He thought that Ezra had come and brought him to eat.
“Frey.. eat first yuk.”
“Eat yuk.”
“Fasting.”
“Long.”
“Ngga laper.”
CRIPPLE
Freya cursed her stomach which unlicensedly rang. Ravin terkulum's smile heard the sound of a worm demo in Freya's stomach. He pulls Freya's hand and takes her out of the room. Ezra and Dilara were no longer there. Ravin invites Freya to sit next to him on the sofa.
“Kak Ez where?”
“Again nganter Dila ke bawah.”
“I'd like an ice cream.”
“Udah I said earlier. He will buy it for you.”
“Where do you know I want ice cream?”
“What do I not know about you Frey? You will always eat ice cream if you bete again. You bete why the hell?” Ravin sniffed Freya's nose.
“Who is also bete.”
“That's his lips manyun-manyun rich duck. If not bete what is its name?”
Freya glared in annoyance at Ravin. The man just chuckled amusedly at Freya's childish attitude. But it was one of the things that the girl liked. He then thrust the food box towards Freya.
“Eat first. It will be cold, not good steak. Do I want a bribe?”
“Emang I'm a child. Bribe to Adel there. He must be cool if bribed brother.”
“Kok Adel anyway? I'd like to bribe you.”
“Basic playboy buluk,” grumbled Freya slowly but still can be caught by Ravin's ears.
“You why the hell angry not obviously rich gini. Are you jealous of Adel?”
“Mana there!”
Freya turned her back to Ravin with two hands folded in front of her chest. Ravin's smile returned. He was happy and anxious to see Freya's behavior. It turns out that Ezra's proposal to be sweet to Adel every time Freya comes to fruition. Freya's reaction showed that the girl was jealous.
“Eat first Frey..pity worms you need nutritional intake.”
“Ish..make a meal to give nutrition to worms.”
“Hahaha. Now eat first, snack also need energy dear.”
BLUSHES
Freya's face flushed red at the words of affection coming out of Ravin's mouth. The girl increasingly does not want to face Ravin. Shame when the general manager saw his cheeks like boiled shrimp.
Freya can breathe a sigh of relief once Ezra comes. He straightened his seat again and opened the food box that Ravin had bought for him. The worm in his stomach rang once he saw his favorite beef wellington. He savorily ate his food.
“Pelan-pelan Frey ate it. He said no laper,”, said Ezra.
“Not him the laper but the worm,” timpal Ravin.
Regardless of the ravings of the two men nearby, Freya finished her meal. Beef steak coated with pate and duxelles and then wrapped in parma ham and puff pastry then roasted has always been his favorite food. In her heart the girl was happy, it turned out that Ravin remembered her favorite food.
“Frey, I've saved ice in the fridge. I'm out first.”
Ezra stuffed Freya's ice cream into the mini-fridge freezer in her room. Then the man came out of the room. He wants to monitor directly his employees prepare a convention hall next to the hotel building. The plan is tomorrow night there will be a music show from one of the country's bamboo curtain musicians.
“Frey... later so right watch?”
“Ngga.”
“Loh why not so?”
“Kan brother want to watch Adel.”
“Yes you are coming too. It's called double date.”
“Ogah, really bad to watch with Remy. Brother is delicious can be two-duaan same Adel.”
“We watched the same movie together, in the same studio. But if you don't want nothing. I watched Adel together.”
“I'm coming! Kan brother ngajak me first why so it went the same Adel.”
“Yes that's why you're coming. There is a new horror movie, your favorite player.”
“Masa?”
“Iya.”
Ravin took a tissue and rubbed the corner of Freya's lips affected by the sauce. Freya's chest thumped violently as Ravin's thumb accidentally touched her lips. Her reflexes lowered her head to hide the red tinge on her face.
☘️☘️☘️
After work Freya rushed to the basement. As promised, Ravin will go to watch with Adel and Remy. Again Freya was upset when she saw Adel was sitting sweetly in the front seat of Ravin's car. Again he lost quickly to the woman.
In order to avenge Ravin who let Adel take his place, the girl chooses to leave with Remy. Ravin continued to look at Freya who was riding in Remy's car. Clearly he was upset to see his lady-in-waiting prefer to go with his Rival. But at this time he must be able to hold back until he is completely sure of Freya's feelings for him.
Ravin and Remy's vehicles enter the basement of Andhara mall. After parking the car, Remy took Freya to one of the cafes to cancel her fast. The girl was forced to obey because she had already lied to Remy. Freya ordered only one slice of cheese cake and lemon tea. Others just ordered drinks.
Not much time was spent at the cafe. He quickly ate the cake because he was chasing the short time of Maghrib. Ravin invites to perform the Maghrib prayer first before heading to the cinema. Although lazy, but for the sake of getting a plus from Freya, Remy followed Ravin's invitation.
Towards the weekend, the atmosphere of the cinema has begun to be crowded by visitors. Today, there are three new films. All the films that are waiting for their release. Remy was in line to buy tickets for a horror movie. At first Adel refused and invited Ravin to watch another film, but the man refused. Finally very forced, Adel followed the will of the man even though he did not like horror films.
Ravin headed to a stand that sold food and drinks. He bought four bouquets of popcorn and four cold drinks. Two popcorn and a drink were given to Adel. Two more he'll take her.
“I go to the toilet first yes. You go in first, Rem. Later I will follow.” exclaimed Freya. Remy nodded his head and took Adel and Ravin in.
“In advance, I am still waiting for change,” elak Ravin.
Remy and Adel entered first, they really want to set the sitting position first. The man's ticket keeper told him that his two friends would enter later. He handed the ticket to the officer first. The two then headed for the seat in the third row from above. Remy sat on the chair before the end. Adel was next to him. He deliberately arranged for Freya and Ravin not to sit close together.
Upon returning from the toilet, Freya headed straight for the studio. Ravin had been waiting for him at the studio doorstep. The man handed Freya a bouquet of popcorn in his hand. Then they both went into the studio. Since the studio lights were still on, they could clearly see where Remy and Adel were sitting.
Remy waved his hand towards Ravin. One by one, they climbed the stairs. Freya was struck as Ravin sighed at her waist then led her to a row of chairs across from the row of seats Remy had chosen.
“Kok here bang?”
“We sit here. Don't go with them."
“Let's have a dateng chair how?”
“This is our seat. I booked a ticket for us this afternoon.”
“Adel won't be angry?
“Why be angry? The double date. I'm ngedate with you. Remy same Adel.”
“Ish brother can aja niknya.”
“The nikung was him. I was the first one you watched. As if he wants to overtake.”
“Ngga nyesel nih not sit down Adel?
“Udah diem. The film will start again.”
“That's Adel see we mulu, bang. He is jealous of her. Ciee.. there is a hot, big fan brother.”
“Frey can be found?”
“When not how?”
“I chopped your mouth with my lips, want?”
Freya straightened her mouth. He looked seriously at the big screen in front of him. Ravin's threat succeeded in making his chest pound. The studio lights dimmed and then went out because the show was about to start. Ravin still looked at Freya's beautiful face in the dark. Only the reflection of light from the white screen clarified his view.
On the other hand, Adel was struck by frustration, because Ravin and Freya chose to sit separately. Remy also did not lose goiter. This time Ravin managed to trick her. He had imagined Freya would hug his arm when the spooky scene was shown. Adel is now nearby. Several times he had to pry at his ears that felt tight to hear Adel's cry. Not to mention his arm that continued to be strangled until the girl's nails stuck in his skin.
The tension continues. Although the ghost does not appear directly, the visual atmosphere is gripping supported by the sounds of backsound enough to make the feathers stand up. Freya shouted as a ghost with a sinister face appeared suddenly filled the large screen in front of her. Reflexes he immersed his face into Ravin's arm.
The adrenaline-pumping scene after scene was finally over. When the big screen shows the credit title of the player and the crew on duty, the studio lights back on. Ravin quickly stood up and held Freya's hand. The two walked down the stairs to the exit. Without saying goodbye they just left Adel and Remy. The two men also could not catch up with the couple because they were restrained by other spectators. Adel also Remy can only harbor resentment in the heart.
