DISTURBING NEIGHBORS
46. Lousy

The atmosphere felt very awkward when Neska and Cean were already in the same room. Moreover, now they only live alone.

Neska was about to move on, in order to save herself from Cean's eye contact which seemed to slowly paralyze her. Before her legs turned to jelly, Neska chose to dodge and would follow Marko only - in accordance with the man's orders - who asked her to sign a contract in his room - although Neska did not know where he was.

"Nes, I want to talk."

The same sentence came back from the young man's lips. Making Neska stray anywhere or rather - both legs suddenly stuck there without being able to move.

Neska was late, the charm of the young man still always made her lose and fall many times. Don't forget either - if it comes into contact with Cean - it always impacts Neska's heart which so beats twice as fast.

"Do you stay here or do we talk in my room? Everything is the same" Cean said later. The young man made a choice.

Neska lowered her head, twisting the edge of the shirt she was wearing, making the looking Cean pull the corner of her lips into an arch.

Cean hastily changes faces into factory-suit mode - aka flat - as Neska snaps at him. Cean did not want Neska to realize the roar of pleasure that emanated from her smile.

"I'm going to Marko's room first, sister," answered Neska, hesitating. The girl went back inside.

"Sister?"

Neska caught the protesting tone of Cean's voice. The girl hastily uttered her words.

"Eh, I mean, sir. I want to go to Brother Marko's room first to talk about my work in the future." Neska changed her language to formal. This is indeed in the office area and it is true that he should not call Cean with the name 'Silver'.

Cean frowned, of course, the intention of the protest was not because of Neska's call to him or the relaxed language used by the girl. He did protest, but because he heard Neska calling Marko as Big Brother. Where Cean was willing, that call was only for him. Cean mana wants Marko and he has the same call from Neska.

"What do you call Marko?"

Neska reflexively retreated as Cean walked closer to her.

"Why, Sir?"

"What did you call Marko?" Somehow they so talk about this, whereas the initial intention of Cean holding Neska with him in this room, certainly not for the trivial. Heh? Trifling? No, for Cean, Neska's call to Marko sounded annoying so it wasn't a trivial thing.

"I mean Mr ... Brother Marko?" tanya Neska confirmed what Cean meant.

"Sir Marko." Cean thinning lips. "From now on call him Father" he said.

Neska nodded. "Yes, sir."

"And don't call me Father."

Neska glared as Cean had already pulled his hand and the same tick brought his body into the man's embrace.

For a moment, Neska was shocked at once stunned. He can smell the aftershave that Cean uses and it smells very masculine. Neska was washed away and forgot the reality, she was enjoying the situation.

As for Cean, don't ask. Of course he's very happy. Especially now that Neska was in his arms. Not evading, not revolting. Neska did not refuse.

Cean's feelings are shrinking for the past two years, as if it was rumbling once he found a girl that he had not met for a very long time.

At the same time, Neska only realized that she was in the most comfortable position and place. Neska hoped this wasn't a dream in broad daylight. Or even if this is a dream, Neska wants the duration to be extended even more.

Cean placed his chin on the top of Neska's head, making him able to inhale the scent of shampoo that was attached to the girl's hair. He was completely drunk right now and did not want to let go.

"Nes, don't shy away from me anymore, yeah."

Neska nodded in her position. He was so happy that he closed his eyes in the chest of Cean's field. He could also hear the man's heartbeat beating in a regular rhythm but so loudly stomping. Perhaps it was not much different from his current state of heart.

The sound of knocking on the door made both of them. More precisely it was a distraction for Cean.

Neska immediately sighed to neutralize her heartbeat. He broke into a hug first and looked at Cean who looked omniscient and did not willingly link the body to be released just like that.

"I'm sorry, sir, I think Neska was left here alone" Zain said, staring at Cean.

Now the man looked at Neska who was blushing her face. Fortunately the girl immediately lowered her face so that Zain was not so clearly looking at the hue.

"Have you met Mr Marko, Nes? If so, I'll wait below. Let me anterin to Sheila's house."

Before arriving at this office-at the same time, Zain had asked where Neska was going after today's meeting, Zain thought Neska would stay at a hotel-until her flight schedule to return to Singapore arrived, but apparently Neska will stay at Sheila's residence.

Cean, hearing Zain's words, turned to the young man with a cold gaze - only for a moment - because then he again dropped his gaze on Neska as if waiting for the girl's answer regarding Zain's offer.

"Ehm, i---"

"Neska will still take care of her work until 2 pm. So, you go home first, Zain." Cean can't wait for Neska's decision, until she first tells him to determine the answer.

Zain looked astonished, he thought Neska would not be too long in the office even until 2 pm? Sounds absurd, because it's only 11 o'clock. But, Zain finally nodded his head as well because it was the statement of his superior.

"You know that Neska's an inexperienced new BA candidate. So, he still needs a lot of learning here," Cean said as if he knew that Zain felt an awkwardness with his previous speech.

"Okay, Nes. I'll go home first if that's okay, right?"

Neska nodded her head at the young man.

"Ah yes, you just keep my phone number, ntar if you need anything to be easily contacted."

Neska then took her phone and typed the number that Zain read. It must have been a spectacle by Cean there.

Zain, Cean and Neska look back. There was a sense of awkwardness in Neska's netra, while Cean kept a sense of annoyance because from the beginning of his arrival, he always saw Neska who was close to Zain.

"When do you know Zain?"

"Not too long ago, Brother."

"I heard he praised you in the elevator."

"Eh?" Neska looked at Cean with a look of disbelief. Did Cean hear that? Because Cean's words are accompanied by a tone that sounds upset, Neska so feel like being caught cheating by her own partner?

Neska immediately dismissed the thought because they were not lovers, right?

Neska also immediately looked the other way, because she was just trying to dispel the nervousness due to remembering the moment of their embrace-a few moments ago.

"I went to Mr. Marko's room first huh, brother." Neska also said goodbye to Cean.

"Hm ..." Cean said that sounds more like a small mutter.

"Eh, but where's the room?" Neska asked herself as she had already turned towards the exit.

Without Neska noticing, Cean was already standing beside her. "Let's take me there. But instead you should accompany me after you get out of here."

"Sister?" Neska stared alternately at Cean's eyeballs, as if looking for answers there, why suddenly Cean behaved like this after so long there was no more meeting between them.

"And another one .. make sure you sign that contract, Nes."

Again Neska lowered her head, she did not dare to face Cean's eyes for more than two seconds.

"I won't let you avoid me anymore" Cean murmured and it was still clear Neska could hear.
