I tidied up all the files on the table and prepared for the next meeting. It feels like my agenda is getting crowded, even for lunch is not enough. I saw the watch at a glance, it looks like there's still 15 minutes. I'll use it to drink a glass of cereal, a sweet drink that's very effective in curbing hunger.
"What are you doing Miss Joline" Cesper's voice startled me, I stroked my chest as I felt a little annoyed by Cesper's habit of appearing all of a sudden.
"You have to eat instead of drink" said Cesper managed to make me turn the eyeballs, since yesterday's incident Cesper no longer avoid me but instead. He always comes to building A for lunch and of course in my room, it raises some rumors circulating in the HR department. Not only that, the emergence of Cesper invited many other women's jobs so that the HR Department always became crowded before lunch. There are times when I feel like an animal in an animal garden, which people watch both from the door and between the windows.
"Do you know that R&D has a dining room as well" I said in a sarcasm-like tone, not that I was unhappy just a little distracted by the sharp glances of other women's work. I just want to have lunch quietly like the days before.
"Do you know that this is a mealtime instead of a coffee hour?" Cesper's reply was no less sarcasm
I ignored the words and continued my cereal activities, suddenly Cesper held my hand and pushed me back to my seat
"I just bought lunch, there is a buy one get one promo so you have to help me finish this" Order Cesper
"Come on, I really have to finish this before 3 o'clock" Please take me with Cesper, Cesper then takes a quick look at my documents and I quickly cover them. Everything I do is confidential because it relates to data scientists and should not be seen by anyone other than HR.
"What are you doing?" I said in a slightly high tone, it made Cesper laugh.
"I'm sorry, I'm just trying to help, if you see from the document it seems like you have trouble making a report" I raise my eyebrows, it's true as Cesper said. All the data requested is very detailed it is not a difficult thing just need time to pour in the form of reports. Not a difficult thing but because it needs to be served daily so it is quite time consuming. I told Cesper the difficulty in an outline and he listened very seriously.
It also amazes me from a Cesper, he will be a very different person when it comes to work, from his gaze and want to help here is not just a small talk but he really intends to help and finally in just less than 5 minutes he managed to create a code in macros that can complete the report in seconds, but usually it takes me at least 2 hours to complete the report.
"Now you have no reason not to eat, yuk here" Cesper said casually as it was no big deal and brought his still-warm food to the table. I am still amazed by his work that is so neat and perfect, even though the requested report is quite complicated but he managed to finish it with this ease.
Not finished by seeing his masterpiece suddenly his two big hands touched my cheeks and twisted the direction of my view from the computer to his face. I held my breath unconsciously
"I don't like repeating the same sentence Miss Joline, so are we allowed to eat now?" Cesper said in a command tone
Because the shock and distance of our faces made my face feel hot, I'm sure Cesper noticed it because he smiled sweetly with his eyebrows raised next door. I ended up doing what he wanted because I didn't want him to do anything more than this, my heart beating was unable to accept all these surprises.
"C Group's new year's night party of course" I replied, shrugging both my shoulders, which employee will pass the party, one of the luxury parties held by CC Group to appreciate all workers. It can be said that the New Year's Eve event is a favorite annual event for all workers because in addition to a luxurious dinner at a prestigious hotel, the costs incurred for the door prize are also not responsible.
"I give you a leak, if the main prize this year is a ticket to vacation in Europe" I whispered to Cesper
"Hmm" Cesper simply nodded not looking interested at all, what kind of reaction was this? Before I could comment, I remember Cesper who was one of the immigrants from Europe of course was not interested in it.
"Another leak, this year's info will be attended by an important guest" I said again and Cesper was silent for a moment before glancing at me
"Important guest?" Finally he showed a little interest
"I'm not sure because I'm still waiting for confirmation, most likely the CEO of CC Group because he fits the agenda in Indonesia that day" I said without realizing the change in Cesper's expression.
Although the new year's night event is an annual event but never attended by the CEO of CC Group because the concerned is not based in Indonesia. So that the presence of the CEO at the event will be a very step, it also makes a hot topic among employees lately. The opportunity to meet the CEO in person, during my time working with CC Group never once met him in person and that also makes this year's event very special.
"No way, he's lag...." Cesper suddenly fell silent and looked wrong
I stared intently at him suspiciously and before I asked what he meant
Triiing The sound of Cesper's phone stopped our chat, Cesper looked at his phone for a moment
"Miss Joline, I have to go now, make sure you finish your lunch huh" Cesper said hurriedly and left me curious about the intent of his statement.
Does Cesper have more updated information ? He calls CEOs 'he' are they close?
Questions popped up in my head.
