Chick Intern And Duda Cool
Chapter 73 Office Life part 2

The endless meeting made Arya overwhelmed. Although there is a lunch break, but still lunch with the management will discuss things that smell business and office.

The clock shows at 3pm. Supposedly, Arya had already arrived at the office to resume some unresolved work. He also had an appointment to meet with Erick and Rini for work related to Digital and Development.

But what power, Arya must be willing to be trapped in a meeting - another meeting related to the project that was obtained while in Singapore the other day. Arya was tired of explaining one after another and answering questions, but the management seemed to not seem to want to stop raining questions again.

Arya didn't even have time to just check her phone. Some team managers in the office who are impatient even desperate to contact him.

“Siang, Mr. Arya. Sorry, I really have to finalize Project A today, sir. When do you return to the office?”, asked Arif, a team manager in the Business and Partner division.

“I try to get to the office at 5. We discussed it as soon as I arrived. You asked Siska to prepare the material. Meet in my room.”, replied Arya.

He had received several calls like this. However, not all of them are. It chooses which ones are more priority and overrides the nonessential ones.

After putting out some strategy, Arya managed to get out of the conversation of the top level bosses in her office. He then immediately returned to the office. Luckily, he brought his own car to lunch.

“Iya, you go straight to my room.”, said Arya after seeing the team manager who contacted her earlier.

*****

It was almost 6 pm, but Dinda had not yet received a reply from Arya. He heard that Arya had returned to the office about an hour ago. But, it seemed like he was passing through another path so it was not visible from earlier.

Dinda hopes Arya passes through her division so she can code. But alas, Arya went the other way. Erick and Rini also have a meeting with Arya who was pushed back. At least that's what Dinda heard. Then Arya will still be meeting until night.

‘Did I go? He has also been informed through WhatsApp.’, Dinda said in her heart.

“Ngapain is Din? Waiting for someone's call? From earlier see your phone continue.”

“Ahh is not Holy. Just look at the clock.”, replied Dinda half lying. Actually he was waiting for a reply from Arya. But, at once look at the clock as well. So, he wasn't completely lying.

“Hm.. why? Can't wait to party together?”, reply Sacred.

“Party? Not that we are just Dinner with mba?”, asked Dinda astonished.

“Ahh yes, right. Dinner. Kan party is also his name.”, replied Suci like a person who was struggling.

“Okee guys, already want 7 o'clock. I've reserved, maybe we can go. Who wants to go with my car?”

“Hm? Not just in front? Can walk, Andra.”, said Dinda.

“Resto on the front Mall turned out to be full, Din. So, I've booked that near X.” road

“Hah? Very far from the office.”

“No, only a few kilometers different, Din. It's only 15 minutes from here if we get in the car. So, who do you want to talk to? My car already has Bryan and Delina. You are the same with Andra, yes?”, replied Suci.

“Eh? Mba Suci car not fit? I'm just as holy as me. The time is the same for Andra.”

“Yes, Din. I was rich twice and I was the same. Regular to the Cafe also we often together.”

“But it's a Cafe, a lot of people. If in the car..”

“Do not do that, Din. Sad, Andra. Wait 15 minutes.”, said Suci.

“But, or Bryan is the same Andra, I am the same Mba Suci.”, said Dinda.

“I don't know the place, only Bryan knows.”

“Or mba Delina with me and Andra, how? Which phase?”, said Dinda still trying.

“Udahlah, Delina should I drop first somewhere, she mo buy cosmetics. Andra must hunt. Fas riding his bike. Uda, you are the same Andra aja. 15 minutes really, gpp. I've known Andra for a long time, he didn't bite, kok.”

Dinda felt cornered. If they had told him earlier, he would probably have refused. But now he's like he's being gang-raped and can't escape. With a heavy heart, Dinda finally followed their proposal.

Coincidentally, Andra parked on a basement floor that was different from Saints, eventually she had to walk there, just the two of Andra. He wanted to get up from the office lobby alone, but of course he felt bad. Had a birthday, asked to be picked up. Finally, Dinda undoes her intentions and follows Andra to the parking lot of her car.

“Hai Din's. Where are you going?”, on the way, Andra even forgot his wallet and car keys above. He had to go back again and ask Dinda to wait for a while in front of the basement elevator.

It was there that he met Dimas who also wanted to go home and was walking towards his car.

“You have a meal - eat together.”, replied Dinda trying as general as possible. He did not want to prolong the conversation because he knew very little about Arya and Dimas' relationship.

“Oh... with an office friend? Where?”, asked Dimas. Dinda tried to answer briefly. Looks like the interlocutor still doesn't want to stop their conversation.

“Iya.. don't know yet. I forgot to ask the name of the restaurant. But he said 15 minutes from here.”, replied Dinda.

“Hm.. 15 minutes from here, yes. What's up, 15 minutes from here. It's got a lot of resto.” said Dimas. He's looking for some restaurants that might be 15 minutes from here by car. But, whether he's just back from America, he doesn't remember there's a 15-minute restaurant around here.

The most resto is in the opposite Mall which is not 15 minutes away. Just walk, it has arrived.

Dinda just kept listening.

“Hm.. Why not just at the front mall?”

“I also don't know.”, replied Dinda briefly. As if receiving a code from Dinda that she did not want to go long with their conversation, Dimas eventually resigned.

“Alright then. I go home first.”, Dimas replied while pressing the car key. A white car not far from them rang. Dimas waved and immediately entered his car.

Shortly after, Andra came down and approached Dinda.

“Yuk, Din's. Sorry I forgot the key was put where.”

“Iya, gpp.”, Dinda followed Andra to his car which was located a little to the end. Andra invited Dinda to come in.

Dinda felt a little uncomfortable as it was just the two of them in the car. Dinda used to go with friends - friends office or campus, but if crowded - crowded. For example in the car there are 3 - 5 people and not only she herself who is female.

All ages, he only ever went alone with Mr. Cecep, the driver at the house of Inggit, Arya mas, and Ibas. Where they are people at home. Dinda's married position made her even more uncomfortable. Although no one in the office knew that.

“Okai, we go.”, Andra said.

“What's restaurant name? As far as I know there are no restos other than those around the mall and in the mall, deh.”

“Adaa. You will know too. Amaan, just calm down. I told you mama has not?”, said Andra who actually sounded circus in Dinda's ear.

Dinda did not answer. He chose to set his eyes outside.

“Denger - Denger, you already have a girlfriend yes, Din?”, after getting out of the parking lot, Andra ventured to ask.

“Hm? A boyfriend? Don't want to think, Andra.”, replied Dinda.

“Why? Mo just marry me?”, reply Andra.

Dinda chose to smile thinly and not chimed in.

“Honestly if you have a girlfriend, we will not disturb you, really. Haha.”, continued Andra again.

“Hmmm.. okay.”, Andra suddenly even become nervous.

He had already asked Saints for help and the others to get Dinda in his car just by herself. Andra wants to shoot Dinda in time to the resto. But, Andra could not even put out words at all.

“In the office, there are you like ga?”, finally Andra tried to issue such a question.

“Why so discuss that anyway. Ah.”, Dinda refused to continue the conversation.

“Jawab aja time, Din. There ga?”, asked Andra.

“Hmm..”, Dinda confused to answer what.

“If confused says it means there.”

“Loh, how can that be the conclusion?”

“Kalo ga, you have certainly directly said no.”, continued Andra.

“Where the hell, the restaurant? Still a long time, yes?”, Dinda several times glanced at her phone, still waiting for an answer from Arya. But the message still ticks 2 and has not been read.

“Nyampe soon, really. Just look at the cell phone. Waiting for a girlfriend?”, asked Andra.

“Again counting, he said 15 minutes, kok feeling from earlier already want 20 minutes not yet until also.”, said Dinda.

“After until. That Holy car already wants to enter parking.”, said Andra.

“Which is the car?”, Andra said.

“That, white SUV.”, Andra said as she pointed towards the car that went into the basement parking lot.

Dinda saw the building where the car entered and saw the writing ‘Club’ plastered in front of him.

“What's right, this is the place? Said resto. This is Club.”, said Dinda.

“If from the beginning we said Club, you would not want to come. There's Bryan, Fas, everybody in, really. Just calm down.”

“Sorry Andra, but if I go to the Club, I can't. I'm just going down here. Assume I have received your transaction.”, Dinda wants to get out of Andra's car, but their position is still in the middle of the road. Andra also locked her car.

“Quiet aja. The club is not what you think it is. There are a lot of meetings at the club as well. There's a private room. We don't need to mingle with people outside.”, Andra said trying to explain.

“Although this is a meeting though and who invited Mr. Erick. I also still don't want to. Plis, I want to go home.”, said Dinda.

“Din, don't do it dong. Rame, kok.”, Andra has started to lose her patience.

According to him, Dinda is very conservative. Time is only invited to the Club his reaction to excessive like that. Moreover, hearing the story the other day from Suci, Andra judged Dinda impressed with the holy pretentious.

“Andra, plis. I'm sorry I couldn't join your party. It's 7pm now. I told the housewives to have dinner at the resto, not at Club.”, Dinda kept persuading Andra to drop him off before getting into the basement parking lot. But Andra ignored him.

Dinda could only stay silent until Andra stopped in the basement parking lot. He relents and leaves when Andra has parked his car perfectly.

“I go home.”, replied Dinda who had gotten off Andra's car.

“You're so much better, anyway. Just to club doang. We are not - doing. Meals only.”

“Not lebay, Andra. But principle. I'm not the kind of person who goes to a club for any reason and is as safe and ordinary as you think. If you take me to a place that matches your talk this morning, I'll come with.”

“Why? You used to play at the hotel?”, either because of emotions, or feel intimidated by the words of Dinda, Andra actually issued a sentence that will make him regret.

“What did you say?”, asked Dinda in disbelief. An Andra who for a few months he knows is supple, friendly, and kind can be a different person tonight.

“Din, Andra! Hayuk.”, Holy yells heard from a distance. Looks like they've parked the car and walked towards Dinda and Andra to be the same - the same towards the lobby. Andra turned her head, while Dinda still stared intently at Andra.

“Contant make his invitation. But sorry, I can't come.”, replied Dinda who then let go of Andra's handrails and walked towards the exit of the parking lot.

“Lah.. Din, where are you going?”, Andra said. The friends behind him were also confused.

Dinda walked towards the entrance of the parking lot that should only be passed by cars and motorcycles. He paid no heed to Andra, or Saints and the others who were still far away.

Dinda just wants out of this place. Luckily, the parking lot is only one floor below the main floor. Dinda just needs to pass through the entrance of the car and motorbike to get out. Supposedly, the exit was through an elevator that was near the Sacred place and the others were standing.

But, going there is the same as repeating the conversation with Andra earlier. Dinda was also angry with Andra's attitude tonight, she just wanted to hurry out and go home.

Saints, Delina, and the others moved faster towards where Andra was at the moment.

“Why Dinda? Not coming?”, Holy Ask.

“Ya. as you see. He just ran away.”, replied Andra.

“Lo.. I told you, right. Dinda was not the type you would easily invite to the club, although together - together.”, Bryan raised his voice.

This afternoon, he had warned - want Andra's plan. Yes, Andra is indeed a birthday and invites everyone to dinner. But, the idea came to his mind to change places to make it more exciting. He felt like he could take Dinda to this place.

Hearing Sacred's story the other day, Dinda definitely didn't mind being invited to the Club. She also plans to ask Dinda out tonight. But all his plans are beyond belief. Devastated in a mess, even he had already vented emotions at Dinda and made the girl angry.

“Lo said what to him until he left so soon? It's not possible that the Dinda we know is playing this way, Andra. You must have said something, right?”, said Delina. He also felt bad.

“Gue didn't say anything. As soon as he saw your car coming in here, he immediately asked to go down.”, Andra's words were true, but Andra lied. He knew full well that the thing that made Dinda leave was her outrageous words. But, Andra is also not ready if he has to be judged by his friends.

“Yes we are - we are. If he does not want, do not need.”, said Suci.

“Is it because you shot him, he ran away?”, Fas who usually just calm and quiet started talking.

“No time yet, Fas.”, reply Andra greget.

“That's it, a girl isn't just her. Anyway, I'm confused too. After what I saw, he really rich holy pretentious.”, Holy protest.

“But what you see is not necessarily true, Ci.”, Bryan said.

“What do I see? You just ran away when I told you about Dinda.”, reply Sacred.

“Stay, you have not confirmed to the person, right.”, continued Bryan.

“You confirm how, Bryan. You want to ask him if he really slept with a guy in a hotel. Keep asking him to explain how many kissmarks are on his neck? There he ran away like now.”

“What? Sleep on? A kissmark? You're right, Ci?”, Bryan's dumbfounded.

“Means you don't get holy-ass too. I don't want to hear you talk about Dinda. Shocked at lo. Don't ask for evidence, Delina also see.”, firmly Sacred.

Bryan remained silent. His heart still wanted to defend, but the information received was horrendous for him. If it was someone else Bryan didn't know, he would probably just believe it. But this is Dinda. His co-worker whom he saw was different from the others since he first entered.

“Ah.. stop. After discussing here, we do not have fun. Comein. You pay, Andra.”

“Iya... relax aja.”, reply Andra who is actually still drowning thinking about his words earlier.
