Call Me a Rose

Call Me a Rose
Chapter 21


It's been over a week now that Farid is no longer working as an OB at GAYA.Corp. I don't know why the rose felt something was lacking. And now his life feels empty. Though clearly, Farid is not his main motivation to work as an OG, even his presence is not in the plan.


Roses are less eager at work. And for some reason, perhaps because of the lack of concentration many Rose jobs are not quite right. Like that afternoon, when he made coffee for Diara which turned out to taste even salty, because the Rose wrong salt instead of adding sugar. And of course Diara took advantage of the opportunity to scold him all out in front of Mona, his nemesis


.


"How many months have you been working as an OG? Cooking bedain sugar with salt just can't be huh! Don't you know what I'm doing on purpose?", cried Diara in a high tone.


"I'm sorry I didn't mean it, I'm sorry again..."


"Sorry, change my coffee the same new one and Lo! Please teach this new kid to make real coffee!"


"Yes, um..."


The rose brought back her salty coffee cup with Mona. Of course after they died Diara laughed ignorantly. But Rose must receive an additional scolding from Mona, her senior.


"Eat it if you work, don't do it! Cooking such trivial things can be wrong, just shy! I am also angry! Huh..."


Roses make new coffee and Mona tastes it a little to make sure it tastes right.


"Well this is new really, let me just anterin!", so good as Mona.


And of course Mona will confess to Diara if she's the one who made the coffee to look for face.


Rose just resigned and again busy with other work. You suck, so grunts in the heart.


Roses back to work, wash the glass, tidying the pantry room, sweeping and mopping, then for a moment Rose rested. Suddenly Rose was bored with her routine. Then what should he do?


Roses finally contacted Mr. Bin and told him that later in the afternoon Mr. Bin did not need to pick him up as usual. Today Rose wants to go home alone to her little contract. During this time the Roses only occasionally visited the small contract if it was playing, especially if Farid forced to take it home. But this time the rose wanted to go there because of his own desire. Roses want to get to know more about the environment of the new place that has been only seen at a glance.


After completing all his tasks quite well, finally the long-awaited time arrived as well. Especially if it is not the time to go home from work. Today there are no meetings and only a few employees work overtime, so today Rose can go home on time.


Roses set foot on their own, across the lobby, then down the yard of the building is quite spacious. Somehow it still flashed a shadow of Farid who stopped offering him a ride. Unfortunately, it was just his imagination. In fact, he had to keep his legs even though he felt tired after his strength drained after a day of work.


Rose stepped towards the busway stop not far from the gate of his office building. There the atmosphere is quite dense because it is time for employees to go home from work. Roses still enter despite having to jostle with other prospective passengers, because he wants to get home quickly to rest.


But somehow, Rose felt that there were some people who urged her until her body was pushed to the corner of the stop. Then one of the men pulled the bag from his arm. It all happened so quickly that the Rose finally realized that the man was trying to snatch his handbag. Roses certainly do not stay silent, Roses try to defend themselves and defend what belongs to him because Roses remember in his bag there are some valuable company documents and secrets as well as his wallet and mobile phone, he said, where all his treasures are stored.


Some time there was a pull between them until then one of the plotters took out a sharp weapon and pointed it right in front of the face of the Rose.


The Rose Reflexes shouted for help.


Actually, a few eyes had turned to the direction of the commotion, guessing what was going on. But when Rose shouted, then everyone at the stop realized that there was a pickpocket in the stop that was launching the action. And unexpectedly a woman pushed closer towards the Rose who was still trying to defend herself, but her power was clearly lost. The woman swiftly launched kick after kick directed at some vital parts of the pickpocket men. The pickpockets who were unprepared for the surprise attack were instantly unsteady and quickly the Rose pulled back her bag and stepped away. Once again, before the pickpockets tried to stand up, the woman launched back several kicks, until a sharp weapon escaped one of the pickpockets and she picked it up.


"Basic amateurs! How dare you rock a girl!"


Unexpectedly, the prospective passengers who were originally just silently watching, one by one began to rush forward and lift punch by punch. Maybe they were still hesitant to attack, because they saw pickpockets holding sharp weapons. But after the sharp weapon was thrown, there was nothing to fear and they started attacking.


Some time there was a fight, until then the stop officer took the initiative to divorce and call the police.


Slowly the atmosphere began to be conducive, some people still hold three pickpockets so as not to run away and some others go one by one because they have their own business. Shortly afterwards, police officers came to secure three suspects and asked witnesses at the scene for information.


After the crowd began to unravel, the Rose had a chance to approach the woman who had saved her life earlier.


"Mbak Mona, thank you very much yes..I did not expect you to be a rescue when Mona was in danger like that.", said Rose sincerely.


"Lo think I'm that bad that I won't help a man who's being persecuted before my eyes?"


"Hehe, yes, I know how Mona's really a good person, just sometimes she likes to be nice,..."


"Eh..eh..have been helped still dare to cheat again!"


"Sorry.sorry Ma'am Mona was just kidding, thanks a lot lo.I just did not expect that Mbak Mona turned out to be that great..."


"Don't get me wrong, because I'm a taekwondo black belt holder, women today also have to be able to defend themselves, there is not always someone who can be copied to protect us other than yourself..."


"Yes.iya Ma'am, maybe next time I can learn martial arts from Mbak Mona..."


"Look, I'm a busy man, where there's time to teach you!"


"Hehehe, yes you know mbak, yaudah yuk we go home together mbak..."


"Where is your house?"


The rose then mentions the area where he lived.


"Well that far enough, mending you stop by my house just for a moment, let me first cure your injuries.. "


"Yes Ma'am Mona, once again thank you very much Ma'am..."


The incident made the Rose realize one thing. Sometimes the person who looks bad on the outside is better than the person who pretends to be good but stabs in the back.
