I WISH THERE WAS HAPPINESS
CHAPTRE 8

The next day at the office.

I was still busy with some materials to fill in the data I was working on. I sat facing the monitor, with my hands still busy typing word-for-word on the keyboard.

The second division room in it contained two other rooms that separated the staff room and my supervisor's room. I work with a senior staff named Dara, and a field staff who is rarely in the office named Rangga, while the other one is still unfilled.

When I work, I usually just focus on my work, never care about the activities of others. Like this time, when other people were busy scrambling to get on the elevator or ahead of each other to use the emergency stairs to get home soon, I was still calmly working.

Those who happened to pass through my room, occasionally turned to look into my room, looking at me with full of astonished gazes.

Ever since I heard something unpleasant about my way of working, I have increasingly distanced myself from my co-workers. Only with Rangga I usually mingle, it was not long because Rangga was always assigned to go out, to monitor the field, I was also not very familiar with Dara.

At that time I accidentally eavesdropped on an unpleasant conversation about me, I heard Dara's loud voice corner me. Therefore I can no longer trust Dara, I trust Dita who works in a different division than me.

Dara is gone from our room, she usually works according to office hours. I came home late on purpose, and used to be overtime to finish my work that they had assigned me. I usually come home a little late from work hours so I can arrange a schedule for tomorrow.

Suddenly, when I was busy editing the data I had typed, I heard footsteps stir. Someone came into the room, it was Dara who I thought was home.

He somehow came back in with his expensive bag, I thought he was left with something here, but suddenly he put his expensive bag on my desk violently, I flinched, then he looked at her who was also looking at me cynically.

“Can't be you, don't need caper! Don't worry about working hours!” the accusation suddenly, by snapping at me.

“Caper what the hell?” my question, without fear, I sniffed at him not to accept.

“Lu don't need to be sok pinter yourself, you don't have to ruin the working hours that have been set up by the company!” emphatically.

I don't accept being accused like that, I stand tall with him, I look into his eyes. He looked at me savagely, the office was already deserted, it also seemed that it was also what made him dare to act that way.

“Gua has never had the intention to destroy working hours, let alone the company's order that is already clear,” my objection.

“Lu realized no, you ruined office hours!” he snapped, pointing at me.

“Sorry, what does it mean, yes?” my question is still not accepted and tends to be surprised to be accused like that.

I was very quiet when not disturbed, but as the saying goes ‘never once wake a sleeping lion’.

I will always be ready to fight when something happens to me that is not in accordance with the facts, I do not hesitate to defend myself, I have been taught by the reality of how I should behave.

For example, there are many, no need to look far, those who have shown their own cunning. I've seen for myself how the bosses treat their employees, so don't be surprised if I decide to dare to fight anyone when it's not based on the truth.

“Lu it's mushy overtime, working as good as you can. You know, you have made us who have been working for a long time so wrong in the eyes of the boss, you are still new, so do not be pretentious!” he snapped, his eyes perfectly patterned.

I crossed my arms, not to lose to him. “It is precisely because the cave is still new, so the cave overtime, the cave learn all the cave work from scratch. Because the cave is aware, no one can be invited to work together, the cave tried to work alone. Among the seniors in this room, no one has ever taught the cave!” My emotions had gone up, and I subconsciously let out all the angry feelings that had stuck in my chest to him.

He seemed dead said, the truth I spoke seemed to have awakened him. During my time at work, and for more than a month, he never helped me, even just answering my questions he was reluctant. And by not thinking of him he was accusing something he shouldn't be making a fuss about.

“Lu can study at home, after all, you are no longer in the study now, it is past your learning period,” he said again, he threw his eyes out of my eyes.

“You don't think you're stupid, where can the secret data of the cave company bring it back home, your advice doesn't help at all, and one more, the tangled cave, the tired cave, why are you the sewot?!” argue, cynic.

I don't care anymore when someone else sees our fight. At this time the office is quiet, maybe some of them have gone home. But it does not rule out the possibility of one or two people who accidentally heard our quarrel, or even someone in the control room of the surveillance camera was watching us.

“Gua not sewot without reason yes, you if you want caper do not believe how, you poor attention, yes? I think he did, so sampe caper in the office,” his lips.

She clucked, it seemed like Dara never expected that I who just kept quiet everyday and just focused on working, would fight back. He was a little misbehaved and confused, I was getting sharper looking at him.

“Gua tired yes, by the way you. Anyway cave pressin once again, never ruin office hours and lackin nature caper lu it!” emphatically.

I haven't had time to reply to her protest words about my way of working, she's gone, carrying her bag. He came out, stomped his feet every step of the way, then slammed the door hard.

My mood was instantly shattered, my breath was hunting incoherently, my heart was beating fast, my mind was chaotic. I no longer have the spirit to continue my work, I am no longer focused on what I should be doing, I am silent, completely silent.

I was still standing, shaking my waist, breathing deeply, I turned my head up trying to find calm there. I tried to channel my anger on the ceiling of the office room, trying my hardest not to shed tears, which actually made my chest more crowded.

After starting to calm down again, I sat back down, looking at the scattered data papers. My intention to finish the report is gone, now I start to clear the table from the scattered data papers, I also do not care about my plan to prepare a work schedule for tomorrow, my focus is gone.

After deciding to go home, I cleaned up the mess on my desk. Tidying back into the document file folder and reassembling it, I looked around, everything had looked neat again, I tidied my things into the usual briefcase I carried.

Before I left, I brought my phone and sent a message. I sent a message full of anger in Joseph's chat room, he must have been very surprised by the emotional message.

Joseph didn't return my message, he called me right away. I immediately received his phone call.

“Gua sprain!” I shouted, when I had just connected with Joseph.

“Why?” tanyakanya.

“There are madmen fighting, kesel!” my answer.

“Who? By the way is he the same you?” joseph asked, he sounded annoyed too.

“He accused cave caper, when he ngelarang cave overtime, this is cave work. Jeez, cave swearing!” my clear.

“Lu is still in the office? Is he still there? Samperin cave now, cave want to teach a lesson,” growled.

“Udah back him, lose by the way cave,” I replied.

“Yes, cave pick up now, yes?” said.

“Gimana lu aja, cave tired,” concluded me.

“Yes already, you come out first. Relax while walking, cave otw now,” he said. “Close cave. Lu down now,” he added.

Joseph ended his call, I rushed out, being annoyed, I slammed the door so hard.

I descended down towards the lobby, I came out with a red face and tears ready to fall at any moment. I was so upset, that there was no other way to let go but to cry and scream.

Not long after Joseph came, he seemed to leave immediately after he finished contacting me, so he did not have time to wear proper clothes, he only wore his white t-shirt, and jeans were torn to the knees.

He got out of his car, then came straight to me. I ran to look at him, I hugged him right away, because he was not ready to push back, he was confused but did not protest.

I cried in her arms, I could no longer hold back my frustration, I was already claustrophobic with my own thoughts. He painstakingly stroked my back, giving it tranquility.

I was still crying and releasing all the pain I had never felt before. This pain makes me feel like I'm down, I'm disappointed about all my feelings that they just broke, I'm angry, I don't believe.

I pressed my arms against Joseph, and in this position I received the sweet caresses that Joseph tried to put through his rubbing on my hair. I calmed down a little, but not to make me stop from crying, my heart was completely broken.
