CEO'S OFFICIAL MATE
CHAPTER 10; For the Present...

San Hyuk was seen dazed as he walked towards the library. He had just searched the campus to find the goddess who had recently stolen his attention. But the attempt failed. He did not find the girl anywhere until he finally gave up and went back to his routine, doing chores.

Only when the fighting taste was extinct, the shoots loved ulam also arrived. The tail of San Hyuk's eyes accidentally caught the shadow he had been looking for. Aleya turned out to be in the library and was busy reading books in the corner of the room. His black shoulder hair is now tied carelessly with a rubber band. The beauty seems to be more clearly displayed due to the twilight sunlight that penetrates the glass wall next to it.

San Hyuk held his breath.

Before completing his wish to meet, San Hyuk took out his cell phone and took the painting of the universe for himself. Afraid that the owner would come to his senses, San Hyuk immediately put his phone in and walked up to the dream.

“Hai...” San Hyuk greeting like last wind. Aleya's gaze remained unmoved from the book before her. It was only realized that he was using a headset embedded in both his hearing devices.

“Haloo...” without Aleya's permission, San Hyuk pulls slowly one of the wires from the side of Aleya's ear.

“Seonbae!” aleya shouted stifled. His eyes were round in surprise.

“How are you?” San Hyuk just sat down before Aleya as soon as he realized that the girl had not forgotten about him.

“What does Seonbae do here?” Aleya spread her gaze. No one else came with San Hyuk.

“Of course do the task..” although San Hyuk's intention is not entirely true, but he also can not be said to be wrong. He was indeed desperately searching for Aleya's whereabouts and decided to work on the task in the end.

“Self?”

“Originally yes, now no!” san Hyuk's smile instantly flashed as soon as Aleya realized that it was the person San Hyuk meant.

The two are then busy throwing questions and sharing opinions about the subjects even though their majors are different. San Hyuk majored in aristek and Aleya herself majored in business economics. Although the basis and purpose are different, but both find common ground that makes the conversation more profound.

San Hyuk could see how intelligent Aleya and her passion for learning was. From his choice of sentences and way of expressing his opinion, San Hyuk realized that Aleya was a figure who had intelligent thinking and unusual persistence.

“Leya-ya?” San Hyuk deliberately spoke banmal to attract Aleya's attention.

“What's up?” aleya replied without feeling any discomfort.

“For now, will you be friends with me?” ask San Hyuk.

“For the moment? meaning?” Aleya was confused by the choice of words San Hyuk used.

“We don't know what will happen in the future?” San Hyuk looked at Aleya meaningfully, “how?”

“Why me?” aleya asked as if making a boundary between them.

“You don't feel that we are suitable after speaking earlier?” San Hyuk directly connected his sentence, “I need you.”

Aleya chose silence to hear the explanation from San Hyuk. He did not want to deduce anything moreover he did not know San Hyuk's true intentions.

“My fingers are in English or if you can be Indonesian too. I need a lot of experience and learning to master it. Instead, I will be someone you can count on while in Korea.” The Tawar San Hyuk. He does not lie and make things up. Previously, San Hyuk tried asking about Aleya's language skills and she was really good at using English. While it is true that San Hyuk cannot deny the fact that his main intention is to approach Aleya, but there is no harm in him also taking advantage of the moment for the benefit of his future.

“What does Seonbae think I can't rely on myself?” search Aleya.

“No! That's not what I meant.” San Hyuk was surprised by the sharp question from Aleya. He did not expect the girl would understand his sentence defensively like that, “sorry!”

“I'm kidding..” Aleya smiled mischievously at San Hyuk, “I am happy to befriend you Seonbae. But Seonbae need not feel burdened with my flaws. I can take care of myself Seonbae,” Aleya tried to calm the heart of her elder sister. He understood exactly what San Hyuk meant. The traditional and cultural differences between Korea and Indonesia are so great that it makes Aleya a little bit adaptable. But that didn't mean Aleya gave up on trying. Slowly but surely, Aleya tried to share her tolerance with her friends.

“You're not offended by my words?” San Hyuk again made sure that Aleya was completely unharmed by him.

“Hmm..” Aleya again threw her best smile back to make San Hyuk's stomach again filled with foam that blew his heart.

“Then from now on I will call you Leya, nor will you need to speak formally to me.” while confirming their friendship, San Hyuk held out his phone to Aleya. He asked for the girl's number and email address.

“Alright Seonbae..”

“No! Oppa..” San Hyuk whines like a kid, “call me oppa!”

“Not that too fast?”

“No, you have to get used to it from now on!

“But..”.

“Are you not aware of this library?” scold someone from beside their table. A woman stood right beside San Hyuk. There was a lanyard hanging around his neck, indicating that he was the library keeper.

“Excuse us...” replied Aleya.

“Other times quieter if inside the library,” once again the attendant reminded before leaving Aleya.

Aleya let out a long sigh as soon as the guard left. He glanced at his watch which now showed at seven o'clock in the night. Aleya decided to pack up and return to her house.

“You want to go home now?”

“Ya, it's night. I have to go home..”

“I'll take you,” San Hyuk packed the goods.

“I'll go home alone,” reject Aleya.

“Leya-yeah..” San Hyuk was about to whine again.

“I can go home by myself, Oppa!” Aleya grabbed her bag and walked quickly leaving San Hyuk who was still pensive on the spot. The word oppa is indeed very familiar and sounds romantic to many Korean men. Although Aleya considered the greeting to be ordinary, but she knew the power and consequences that arose from the word for men especially San Hyuk.

Long enough for San Hyuk to take control of himself. He did not expect that the words spoken from Aleya's mouth could make her die of such a flea. Though this is not the first time he was called oppa by many girls he knew. San Hyuk immediately chased after Aleya once he realized that the girl had far left him.

“Hei it cheats its name!” San Hyuk managed to teach Aleya a step.

“I didn't just call you oppa?”

“But you're the only one who made me that way Leya-ya!”

“Oppa know? The first person I called oppa was you,” Aleya stopped walking and looked at San Hyuk sharply, “thank you for being my oppaku!”

San Hyuk tightened his fist until his knuckle turned white. He refrained from pulling Aleya into his arms. That girl really drove San Hyuk crazy.
