Defensive Mode

While the Creative Department leader was doing an outside task, in the office everyone was seen working except the main person. Gathering near the Creative Director's desk, they asked when their colleague would return and what news he would bring.

They also discussed how this project with Niskala was important to them. Of course for the progress of the company, but also for the peace of their lives. The success of this project will affect the mood of the Creative Director, who

it's a nightmare for all the staff.

They do not want events like the one they lost the project from Clandestine to repeat, even though it is not the first time but it is better not to repeat it again and again.

During the conversation in the tense wait that awaited - wait finally arrived. The woman wearing a dark blue blouse with a box pattern skirt - the bright color combination box was approaching. The brown long jacket he wore waved in rhythm with his footsteps.

The sound of his heels not too high was heard from the end of the room. The three main person looked at him, paying attention to the look on his face more precisely. The closer the woman got to them, the clearer the expression on her face they could see. Instantly the three of them smiled as they looked at the slight arch in the corner of the woman's lips.

“I clearly see a smile right there!” rezvan said in a loud voice.

“Is it..” says Kenzo hanging, “Perhaps.”

connect Qeiza.

Calya who saw the three co-workers were very curious further developed her smile as she approached.

Confirming that their allegations are correct. The three main person looks very happy, they even cheer, spin and jump small so happy.

“You’ve worked so hard,” said Calya congratulate them. They do tos each other.

“Oke.. means the next few days we can live in peace, ” Rezvan said.

Too happy that he forgot the sentence was quite sacred, because now his colleagues are looking at him at this time. Two were shocked and one was astonished, it seemed like he would be in trouble.

“Means living in peace?” Calya asked him he obviously wanted to know what peace meant in the sentence just now.

“That is because one big project has passed, now we can relax a little,” Kenzo the man who is an expert at stringing the word becomes a savior.

“True!” connect Rezvan.

“Poor Rezvan, you must be under a lot of stress,” Qeiza tried to add, although her facial expression looked rather awkward.

“We’ll back to work then,” Kenzo said to his two colleagues, trying to prevent other sentences that will cause new problems.

Calya agreed and the three of them would head to their table, suddenly she remembered wanting to convey something to Qeiza.

"Oh yes Qei." he said spontaneously, resulting not only in Qeiza but also with the two male colleagues.

They think Calya will ask them to do a job. While Calya who felt the words earlier also attracted the attention of her male colleagues undo his intention to speak.

“Mba Calya, representatives from Niskala have arrived,” said one intern.

It has been a few days since the last meeting, as per the agreement they will discuss the details of the idea today.

“Oke, everything is ready right?” Calya asked her colleagues. This time it was Qeiza and Kenzo who were going to join the meeting to explain the details of the idea to the clients.

They immediately rushed to the meeting room, when they were sure that no important files were left behind.

It did not take long for them to arrive at the meeting room and lucky for them because the clients also just arrived, they passed in front of the meeting room door.

This means that no one feels uncomfortable because of waiting or waiting. At least that's what everyone should be thinking at the moment, but not with one person. Calya, ever since they met earlier she has felt bad because of one face. The face she met at the previous meeting.

Being too busy with work she forgot that she would meet this man again. He felt that the man was smiling meaningfully towards him, yet he would not be affected. For the sake of professionalism he would ignore all his negative thoughts about the man.

That's what he was trying to do during the meeting, he didn't expect it to be any harder than figuring out an idea for a project. How could he dispel negative thoughts about the man in his brain, while each time he accidentally looked towards a client he found the man was staring at him.

Their views met and it made him very uncomfortable. His concentration is divided, he really hopes this meeting ends soon. That hope eventually helped him to finish the meeting.

Just before the meeting was really over, the man arrived - suddenly opened his voice and

ask “May I know who is in charge of this project?”.

Qeiza answered him and said that as Creative Director Calya is in charge of this project. The man spoke again he said that for the smooth running of the project it would be better to stay in discussion if at any time there are changes needed. For that he needs the mobile number of the person in charge of this project as the fastest communication line.

Calya fell silent and thought to herself whether she should fall down or ignore this trap-like state in her eyes. A moment of silence in the middle - the choice between prestige and work professionalism.

“Why? Do you mind communicating about our project?” said the man again.

“Of course... No,” replied Calya, he wanted to answer - of course I object-.

He took out a business card and then gave it. The man took the business card and kept it.

Then he reached out his right hand and spoke again “Hopefully we can cooperate well from now on.”

Calya grabbed the helping hand a little hesitantly, they shook hands. The man smiled as well as Calya, but a forced smile.

Creative Department where everyone looks busy at their work. Focused and calm, except for one person who looks rushed. Typing quickly, tidying up the files on his desk quickly and hurriedly leaving his desk. Qeiza moved out of her chair quickly

approaching Calya.

He tapped on his friend's desk three times. Trying to shift the concentration that is now focused on the computer into its direction. When Calya turned her head, Qeiza immediately pulled her friend's arm and led her out of the room. Pantry, a room where they can talk freely but still have an alibi.

“Don’t you wanna tell me something?” ask Qeiza.

“About what? Calya doesn't understand.

“Cal, Who was that guy?” Qeiza started her interrogation process, “Rayshiva Zachery, our client,” Calya replied casually.

“I sense something here, are you.?” Qeiza spoke while squinting her eyes.

“Wait, what? No!” at first Calya did not understand, but he immediately denied after capturing the meaning of the words of his friend.

“I haven't even said anything. There must be something. Tell me, what happened?” that too fast guess actually made Qeiza even more suspicious.

The extremely excited Qeiza while interrogating left Calya confused. I don't know what to say or where to start. He can't speak well now. He wanted to tell this to his friend anyway, so he told him everything that happened that day.

“Whoa..he is into you!” qeiza said after hearing the full story from her friend.

“Into me? What do you mean by into me? He's just a playboy who seduces all women,” Calya rejects the conclusions her friend made with her point of view.

“Look at you! You don't even know him yet. Stop being defensive?” Qeiza started lecturing Calya.

“Me? Defensive?” Calya didn't feel like what her friend was saying.

“Yes, you are. Always!” Qeiza was very confident in her assessment.

“Yeah, whatever,” Calya gave up, there's no point arguing with her friend that.

“So, what are you gonna do with him?” Qeiza asked back.

“There's nothing I should do. It’s just a business,” Calya replied casually.

“How if it’s more than that, the possibility is also high” said Qeiza trying to convince.

“The possibility is indeed high that people will look for us if not back in the room now,” Calya diverts the conversation before the delusion of her friend is getting to be – so. He pulled his friend's arm to go back to work with him.

Maybe he doesn't seem to care now but he's actually quite worried about what his friend said. About the possibility that could happen, he was quite worried about what he would have to do if that happened.

It was true what Qeiza said, that Calya had her own defensive mode when it came to this matter. At times like this the mode will activate by itself.
