“What design team already gave a report?” ask the woman with the smart device in her hand, busy looking at the electronic report there. Two other men did the same.
“Not yet.” replied one of the men.
“Then when do they want to give it?” ask the woman again, this time in a more serious tone.
“After they adjusted some of the additions you gave me this morning.” The man took off the device in his hand, speaking no less seriously to convince the woman.
“Make sure we get the report today.” said the woman firmly, before returning to see the screen of her device.
“OK. By the way, what’s wrong with you?” Rezvan turned off his screen. leaning back while starting a new topic of conversation.
“What?” ask the woman not to understand.
“You sounds more like Calya now?” said clarify.
“What do you mean? Not only now, she has long sounded like Calya?” kenzo has added.
“Am I?” qeiza asked confusedly, returning to her usual self.
The two men nodded
“Current criticisms, your tone when charging for work up threats not to tolerate mistakes. I think Calya has possessed you.” explains Kenzo again.
“You, I've been contaminated. What if I really turned into Calya. It’s not good!” the woman began to panic.
“What's not good?” Calya suddenly came right in the middle of the three people's conversation about her.
“It is not good if.... we miss the deadline, right?” said the woman dodged, the fastest reason she could think of right now.
“Ya!” - “True!” both men said.
“Isn’t that obvious?”
“What?” ask them, thinking maybe they've been caught off guard.
“Of course we should not miss the deadline. You do not need to discuss it anymore.” but fortunately Calya realized it.
“Be..right! Haha.. Why do you two keep asking obvious things?” A nervous Qeiza started throwing balls at her two friends.
“We both? Qei, you.” said the panicked Rezvan and began to be cornered. In a moment he might be able to divulge his true state if Kenzo had not cut his words. “Wow, see what time it is. Time to check the report. Come!” Kenzo pulls Rezvan away from the meeting room.
“What's with the two of them?” calya asked a little confused.
“They? You know for yourself, they have been strange.” replied Qeiza straightened out or rather plunged.
“So, how’s the work?” calya asked as they walked back to the study.
“Distorting, exhausting, annoying. Do you know how many new movies have been released? and there's not a single one on the list that I can watch because of this project. Haaa.. I could be a zombie spoiler on social media.” Qeiza returned to being herself, complaining while not feeling out of trend.
“Hanging on a little bit” Calya trying to cheer up.
“I know. The show must go on, and if the outcome of this project is bad after all the sacrifices I've made, it's the same suicide. Never, will happen, I will really focus on work.” at least Qeiza proved that her complaint is just an outlet for fatigue, not a form of wanting to run from responsibility.
“Good mindsets. Looks like I have trained you well, huh?” Calya started joking.
“Haha.. Right enough. You trained me to be a workaholic zombie isolated from the beauty of the outside world.” Qeiza balaz.
“Although so, at least you are not alone. There will be me.”
“That’s sounds terrible.”
“What?”
“Let’s back to work.”
***
Qeiza became busier than usual after she was assigned to lead a new project with Radhika Group. Even so, the woman managed to do her job well, including communicating directly with clients who are actually outside the realm of work. Qeiza developed good communication with Arion, from reporting, meeting arrangements, to interpreting all the man's wishes for this project. The woman managed to maintain a good relationship as a business partner.
“Who?” damian asked as he saw the woman busy with her phone in the middle of their lunch.
“Arion.”
“He also contacted you during lunch hour?”
“Oh, he contacts me whenever he has an idea for his project.”
“Really? Dedicated once.”
Qeiza nodded as she chewed her food.
“You can try to discuss with him if you feel disturbed”
“Not really, at least he spoke quite politely.”
“Oh, so.”
Damian clearly shows that he is disturbed by the closeness of Qeiza and Arion. He also tried to be neutral for professional reasons. But still he could not hide the small details. Like the glint of his eyes that always fixed on the screen of the phone Qeiza that lit or check the expression of the woman while reading the message on her phone.
While in different places Calya is also no less busy. Bringing in interns in her team, the woman took on greater responsibility than usual. Taking on those with minimal experience to work on a big project like Niskala is definitely a challenge. Calya must take more roles by teaching, directing and supervising their work. It was no exaggeration to say that he did almost everything by himself.
But that's not the main focus for him, not at all. For the woman guiding them this time is the right step to turn them into a great help in the future. Their skills and experience are minimal, but young age certainly helps them to learn new things faster and they will learn more from big projects. Calya is confident that in the future there will be more big projects that they will have to deal with at the same time, so having more of a skilled workforce will be even better.
But like humans in general, women do too. No matter how his mind and heart planned, his body seemed to stop him. Either because of the age factor, but the woman was now exhausted, until she involuntarily fell asleep in one of the aisle seats. Though his initial intention was just to sit for a moment while checking incoming messages on his phone.
“Ok! We all go to dinner first!”
One of Niskala's team called out to everyone who was improving. The filming was completed an hour ago and now they are in the studio. The team's dinner invitation just added to everyone's spirit to improve faster.
“Wah. there is a team dinner. Can eat as much!” exclaim Wikan.
“This is new called hard work that is not in vain. Ready to finish!” added Rana.
“Eh, but how mba Calya nga looks huh?” davidya asked while looking at the entire room.
“Open a long time after filming is finished he came out.” replied Rana.
“I also saw, he came out after chatting with the director.” added Wikan.
“Didn't he go first because there's other business? ask David again.
“How are our fates? Yesterday we went to a team dinner without a team leader.” Rana started to panic.
“This can happen. Wikan quick go find mba Calya, there!” added Davidya.
“OK. okay..” Wikan was about to leave, but before he left a voice stopped his steps.
“Where are you going? Did not join the dinner tim” Ray came to the three people.
“Cute, Sir. We want to find Mba Calya first.” replied Rana.
“Calya where is it?”
“So go out, it might be around the building.” explains Davidya.
“Then let me search. You guys just go to the restaurant with the others.”
“Good, Sir.”
Everyone had started to leave the set, and Ray as he said earlier went to look for Calya around the building. It didn't take long, for the man to find her. Calya was still asleep in one of the corridor chairs with a sitting position. The man walked slowly closer to her.
“How can he fall asleep soundly in a position like this?”
Sitting right next to him Ray intends to wake Calya up, considering that it is late and the woman must eat. But Calya's tired face made her hold back.
“He will also not have appetite if too tired.” said the man while still sitting there
