“Udah no longer understands what is in the mind of the girl. Why should also be the same person who has obviously a lot of scandals is not good.”


“Definitely J nyesel really have been dating that long the same N. Link zonk!”


***


For three days Nadin locked himself in his room. Even the curtains he did not open. He let the room go completely dark.


This is not the first time Nadin has felt he has not stepped out of his residence. Only, this time it was much worse than when he broke up with Juna. Because, what he had to deal with was not just one person, but hundreds or maybe thousands of people out there.


Just hours after he came home from Marco—'s birthday party which suddenly became hell for him, began to appear news about his affair with Axel.


The problem is, not just gossip that someone wrote in his social media. Various photos when he was with Axel, and the quarrel between Axel and Juna was already scattered on the internet. In fact, Nadin was very shocked when he saw the photo when he and Axel were asleep on one bed. Of course it immediately caused an uproar.


Even though Nadin knew he wasn't really guilty, but how could anyone listen to his talk. Everyone believes more in what they see, even if it is just a fabrication.


The morning after Nadin was escorted home by Ramos, Tyo immediately contacted him. He told Nadin not to come to the management office, as many reporters were already waiting for his arrival.


Although the Athenian official was certainly immediately angry to see all that and asked Nadin to come to the office on that day. But Tyo can still handle it.


‘Ting-tong’


Nadin spontaneously turned to the door when he heard the bell ringing. But, his body actually feels stiff because it feels scary to imagine who is behind there.


‘Ting-tong’


The bell rang again, because it did not get an answer. Made Nadin's chest start pounding.


‘Ting-tong ting-tong’


The visitor was getting impatient. But it made Nadin afraid and instead hid his head under the pillow.


Nadin immediately ran into the apartment and locked himself inside. Fortunately, the security guard stopped the men from following Nadin into his apartment building.


‘Ting-tong’


The bell sounds again. But this time followed by Tyo's voice. “Nadin, it's me. You sleeping?”


Hearing that, Nadin's feet immediately reacted and ran towards the door quickly. He opened the door, and surprised Tyo with his pale-looking face. “Yes Lord!” the man said, before Nadin hugged him.


“Bang... I'm afraid..”.


“Iya. Let's go in first.”


The first thing Tyo did after entering was to look for a light switch. Then looked surprised to see the condition of the room was quite messy.


Nadin immediately sat down while hugging his knees on the sofa. His face was central, his eyes were swollen and looking faint, his body was limp.


Tyo put a crisp bag of food on the table. Even he brought a lot of it because he thought that Nadin must have forgotten to eat. “Eat yuk,” take him. The woman simply nodded limply, without a fight.


Tyo did not say anything to convince Nadin to fill his stomach. The situation was silent for a while. It's just that Nadin felt impatient to ask. Although he was actually afraid to hear the answer from the manager.


“I must have been fired huh, Brother?”


“No,” Reply Tyo. Then pause his words. “But, Axel Yes.”


“Hah?!” Nadin did not think until there. The news became even more shocking.


A few days ago, Nadin realized his condition was not okay to prejudge Axel. But after he was sane enough to think about what had happened, then he realized that there might be someone who trapped them. And Axel was one of the victims, just like him.


Nadin felt Axel was the most harmed. And this time, he also had to bear the punishment that Nadin should get. Even he himself had not apologized at all for his accusations the other day.


“But, why, Brother?”


Tyo exhaled loudly. “Skandal him all this time. Violent actions. The accusations about the affair are more than enough to make the big boss angry. The problem..”


Suddenly, Tyo stopped his words. He almost said something unnecessary. That their big boss had given a choice between removing Axel or Nadin. Of course Axel did not defend himself and decided to back off. But, it will only add to Nadin's grief, and Tyo decides to keep it to himself.


“What problem?”


“The problem, the big boss who immediately said so. We can't do anything.”


“Job...”


Nadin lost his appetite. Though he had just devoured some mouthfuls of fried rice. But, his stomach—yang when empty— already feels full. He even started to feel nauseous.


“What boss didn't say anything about me?”


“So far, just want to get angry. Almost all brands and tv stations cut cooperation.”


Nadin began to feel excited about what was going on in his life. He always tries to stay out of trouble. Life is simple, just expect happiness with the people he loves. Suddenly, all perfection must be destroyed. It was as if it was being buffeted by a typhoon angina that came without warning.


Suddenly, he remembered the mother who must have been waiting for his arrival with anxiety. How did her mother feel when she saw the television show that was filled with her name? Surely the woman will cry. And that's what makes Nadin feel even more tormented.
