"Hi Miss Joline, update for the meeting tomorrow change to the XXX room" A short message from Casper distracted me, I checked the calendar and replied
"Thank you for the information, but as usual I will join via zoom" I replied briefly
Because we work in the factory area, we can say our office building is divided into several buildings according to the function of the department itself, for support teams such as HR, Finance, Legal, Purchasing, IT and so on are in building A while the research team is in building B, as well as the production team and maintenance team. So every time there is a meeting with a different team building there will be a meeting option virtually via Zoom. Because HR and R&D are in different buildings then I can follow meetings virtually.
I smiled to myself considering my unnecessary turmoil, because even though I often meet but I will not often meet directly with Cesper. However, somehow Cesper still often informs the changing of the meeting room that I really do not need to know because I plan to always meet via the zoom tool only.
"It seems that this time you need to come to building B because there will be a field review after the meeting" Cesper replied instantly eliminating my smile. Cesper seems to have the ability to read people's minds, if this is no other choice.
It has been two weeks since our last meeting at the restaurant, but because of this project we so often interact via short messages like this. I'm also getting used to the existence of Cesper in my daily life, Cesper turned out to be a fairly active person on social media, almost ready for the day I received broadcast messages such as good morning or good night from him. Is this the custom of Europeans? Usually in Indo people call it a SPAM message, but I still reply even if sometimes only with thumb stickers or smile emoticons.
Finally I added a meeting tomorrow in my To do list, my hand stopped when I saw the writing in my notebook
"Blind Dating"
--------------------
Two weeks ago
"Whatever ghost you are, get out of my best friend's body!!" Nita's first sentence from across the phone made me turn my eyes
"Jomblo ghost ngenes, but I'm serious! I have no experience in this field at all so there's no harm in trying"
"Do you think this adds an experience column in the CV?" Reply Nita in a frustrated tone
"Oh, as a prime finance you can definitely help me"
It is undeniable that Nita is a very attractive woman. He was born with brown eyes, curly hair and yellow skin makes it have a sexy aura without having to try to look sexy. Plus the shape of his hourglass body that is able to make any man melt on him. But ironically with such an appearance the men who approached him were mostly striped-nose men who only wanted his body, he said, I can't imagine how often she's been sexually assaulted until she's shaped her into the current Nita.
I still remember the night Nita came to my room in such a mess, breaking her heart into pieces and shutting herself up for weeks and almost ending her life. I immediately shuddered to remember all that, since then I swore to myself to protect and support him no matter what.
"I do have some pretty decent acquaintances Okay, can I help you out with the time?" Nita's reply instantly made me smile, in addition to having an attractive appearance, Nita was also very good at judging people. For a long time I had not heard the word OK enough from a Nita, I became more and more curious who that person was.
"If this is you already have, I just send the picture" said Nita followed by a photo sent via a short message
"It's Cesper!" My screams made Nita laugh
"Why look for another even though a man as perfect as Cesper is in front of your eyes"
"You think a man as perfect as Cesper would glance at a woman like me? Well until when do you want to joke, I seriously need your help" I said in a clear tone, Nita did not reply for a long time
"Hello Nita?" I said make sure we're still connected
"I don't know if you're innocent or bego but if that's what you want I'll help you, I'll tell you the time and place tomorrow" replied Nita
--------------------
Back in the present, Nita's blind date turns out to be tomorrow.
From the information provided by Nita, butaku's dating partner is a chef who works at one of the prestigious hotels in the area here. From his appearance it seemed like he was a fine man, to his face was arguably standard. But when compared to Cesper he is far below the standard,
*Why then? *My inner self, why would I compare her to Cesper? Remember your position Joline, here is your position, which is far below when compared to Cesper. Somehow there is a sense of sadness, a sense of insecure that has never arisen for a long time suddenly appeared again after meeting Cesper. I do not hate this sense of insecure at all because this sense of insecure can act as a motivation to continue to increase my own selling value. I'd rather go to work than think of anything useless at all.
"Good night Miss Joline, considering tomorrow there's a spaciousness review after the meeting, make sure you wear long socks, I don't want your feet to hurt like the first day we met yesterday" As usual I received a message from Cesper, I was wondering if there was some kind of setting used why he could send messages as consistent and timely as this.
However, if read it seems like this is not a broadcast but a short message that was sent for me only. I smiled a little considering the sweet scene of the day, Cesper's gentle touch and attention really made me crumble, at first glance I saw the reflection of myself in my room mirror and after that I hurriedly kept my phone away.
*You're really in danger of Joline. *In my mind, do I always put out this expression every time I receive a short message from Cesper? Smiling like a bego because of a short message from him?
The real reason why I decided to go on a blind date is because I was afraid that one day I would fall for Cesper, all the attention and touch that Cesper gave me had such a big impact on my heart. I don't want to put my heart on someone who obviously can't be had. Before it's too late I have to do something. I must clear this feeling thoroughly before it takes root. Therefore a blind date this time should work.
"Okay, thank you" I replied briefly
