Can It Be Us?
THIS IS AN ORDER NOT AN OFFER

Ashana lowered her head as the others lowered their heads. The woman knew who was coming. Who else if not the cruel Achazia. Remembering the name of the man made Ashana roll both her eyeballs.

"Good morning, sir.." Greeting employees including Ashana. The woman glanced at Achazia who was walking in a haughty style as usual. He sneered, who is he? Ah yes, Ashana forgot, she's the director.

"Ashana!"

Ashana jumped in shock. The woman looked at Andini who was standing right next to her.

"I'm still next to you Andini! No need to scream!" Resenting.

Andini rolled both her eyes. "If you had responded when I called you I wouldn't have shouted." Reply to the woman.

"What's wrong?" Ask Ashana. The employees who had lined up to greet Achazia had now disbanded. Back to their jobs.

Ashana takes a breath. "You don't want to go back to your duties? Are you fascinated by the good looks of our director?" Said the woman because Ashana kept glancing at Achazia until she disappeared in the distance.

Ashana stared at Andini horror. "I? Enchanted with her? Impossible!" The woman then walked away from Andini to take care of her work.

Andini stared at Ashana's departure along with her raised shoulders. "Who knows, right?" The woman then returned to do her job.

*****

"Caramel macchiato one."

"Good mbak. It's in process."

Ashana pulled out her phone while waiting for her order to be completed. I don't know why his throat was suddenly dry. So he chose to buy a drink to refresh his throat. It's still lunchtime.

"It's Mommy."

"Thank you." After receiving the drink and giving the money, Ashana walked over to sit down with Andini. Yes, Andini Bea Cadreyn is her best friend from High School. The woman was grateful to be able to work with Andini even though they attended different universities.

Dugm!

"Geez, sorry sorry." Ashana said regretfully for not paying attention to the road. The woman felt guilty. Luckily the drink did not spill so much that it soaked the shirt of the person who hit him.

The person who was hit by Ashana was silent, making Ashana think that the person forgave her. So the woman chose to continue on her path.

"Stop."

Ashana stopped her steps. The woman turned to look at the man she had hit who had now turned around. Ashana rounded her eyes. Adrian Bilal Chawki's. The friend of the cruel director. Adrian is known by his nature which is almost the same as Achazia.

Ashana sipped her saliva hard. The woman realized that she was now the center of attention. Andini who looked at him could only silently pray.

"Cabin."

Although reluctant, Ashana walks slowly towards Adrian who looks at her sharply. "Well, can I help you?" Although nervous, the woman can still control herself.

"What's your name?"

"What?"

"You have a defect in your ear?"

If the one in front of him is not Adrian, then Ashana will pull the hair of the guy to bald. "Ashana."

"Full name."

"Ashana Berryl Carissa."

"All right." After saying that word Adrian left Ashana with both hands that went into the bag of pants.

Ashana can breathe a sigh of relief. Adrian left too. He thought Adrian would punish him.

"You okay?" After Adrian's death, Andini immediately ran to Ashana and checked Ashana's condition.

Ashana clucking. "I'm fine."

"Thank God. Uh but, I heard he was asking your name."

Ashana nodded innocently. "Yes." Yeah."

Andini widened both her eyes. "God, terrible! Then what are you answering?"

Andini hit her forehead with her eyes closed. "It's over, it's over."

Ashana looked at Andini not understanding. "You why?"

Andini lowered her hand. The woman looked at Ashana annoyed. "I should ask, what exactly are you? How did you hit Adrian?"

"I'm too focused on my phone. What's wrong? After all, he didn't mind that either."

Andini sighed. "That's not what Ashana Berryl Carissa is all about. The one in question is Mr. Adrian asking your name. There are only two possibilities. You were fired or demoted."

Ashana widened her eyes. The woman realized that Achazia or Adrian had asked the name of the employee so her life was on the verge of death. Luckily the other two are not like that.

"Then what should I do?" Ashana panicked.

Andini just rubbed Ashana's shoulders. "Only God knows."

"Sorry, excuse me,"

Andini and Ashana turned to the source of the voice. There stood a woman with thick glasses.

"Yes, is there a problem?" Ask Andini.

The lady in thick glasses looked at Ashana. "You were called by the chief director. Waiting in his room."

Ashana widened her eyes. So did Andini. Even until the lady in thick glasses passed they remained in her position.

"Andini, what should I do?" Ashana looked at Andini.

Andini who felt unbearable immediately pulled Ashana into his arms. "I'll pray for you the best."

"should."

Andini let go of her embrace. The woman pushed Ashana's body to leave. "Already, now you're fulfilling the call. It'll be bad if you're late."

Ashana nodded. The business will be longer if it is too late to come. The woman walked into Achazia's room. Every step Ashana kept chanting prayer. May luck be on his side.

After arriving in front of Achazia's room, Ashana took a breath and exhaled slowly. He can't be nervous. The woman started pushing the door and went straight in. Achazia was sitting in his seat of power and Adrian was staring at the street from behind the window.

"You're 0.4 seconds late." Short Achazia.

"Sorry." Said Ashana while bowing her body.

Adrian who was staring at the streets turned around with a smile that adorned his handsome face. "This is the person I recommend you to."

"Is he talented?"

Adrian laughing. A crisp laugh. "You ask what? Of course the employees in this office are all talented."

"But for her I'm not sure."

In Ashana's heart grunt. What does he mean he said that? So he thinks he has no talent? Like those?

"Even she can't tie her hair properly." Add Achazia again.

Reflexes, Ashana's hand stretched out to touch her messy hair due to colliding with Adrian earlier.

"That's because he ran into me on the street" Adrian said.

"Bumped you? Even he can't walk right."

It felt like Ashana was punching this man with an arrogant face before her. It's so arrogant of him. Are all rich people like that?

"You told me to look for people but you commented. Then just find it yourself there." Adrian's lazy voice heard Achazia's piercing words for the woman in front of him.

Ashana glanced at Adrian. It turns out that the man is not as bad as the office people rumored. Behind his cold nature turns out he is better than Achazia.

Achazia sighed. "All right." The man got up from his seat. The man walked over to Ashana. "You," He pointed at Ashana using his index finger. Makes Ashana want to not look at Achazia. "From now on you'll be my personal assistant. More than a personal assistant. It's an order, not an offer."

Ashana immediately wanted to faint right then and there.
