Ruby squirmed her body. The sweet aroma was sucking his breath. Very soothing. He felt the place lying very comfortable, tender and soft, making him more and more wriggling looking for the most comfortable position. And smiling happily.
Aahh beautiful dream, soft mattress, refreshing aroma, when else I dream like this, let's enjoy this beautiful dream, maybe I'm too tired to dream this comfortable. His heart said with a calm and relaxed feeling.
“ Hey mad girl, did your head hit so hard that you are now completely insane? “ hoarse voice of a man surprises him.
Her eyes were still closed, Ruby immediately turned her memory, trying to convince herself that this was a dream, the most beautiful dream and the most comfortable in her hard life. But why the voice of – men is so real. Slowly Ruby opened her eyes.
What room is this ? Jesus..Is this really not a dream ? Thinking Ruby was starting to suspect, she did not dare to turn to check the origin of the voice.
As he ventured to glance at the origin of the hoarse voice, found a – man with a smile of cruel grin was looking at him fixedly, like a happy wolf getting prey.
Ruby jumped up immediately and sat down on her knees on the floor. His brain was not fully conscious. He tried to remember, compiling his memory from the beginning. Then he was shocked when a creepy memory flashed.
Stupid, stupid, stupid, this is because you're too into meddling in other people's affairs, look at the consequences now. What if this guy was the one who was meant by “secretary Yuri”, I must have been fired immediately, stupid, stupid, stupid, though this is the only job that taught me well even though I was only a high school graduate. How is this ? Ruby's heart was unceasingly cursing itself.
“ Already understand the situation ? “ Continue the hoarse voice, realizing that Ruby began to understand the conditions that occurred.
“ Ma sorry sir, sorry for my sassness “ he said stammeringly.
“ Basic you are a lowly servant, dare to go up to this place, do you not know the company rules that this place is off limits !!! “ Jerk the woman who was also in the room.
Ruby understood whose voice it was without seeing the owner of the voice.
“ Do you know what floor this is ?!? “ the snapping is getting louder.
“ I'm sorry Manager Vi “ said Ruby was getting scared, witch Vi has already started acting.
“ And do you know who you're dealing with ?!? “ still with his high voice.
“ I'm sorry “ That's all Ruby can say.
“ Already Anne, let me alone who will talk to her, I was very curious with her “ hoarse voice suddenly cut.
“ Hey you, lift your face “ Rai command.
Fearfully Ruby raised her face, looking at the heavy-voiced male, Ruby shuddered in horror as she looked at the look in her eyes, as if – would be just with that eye highlight he would be swallowed alive.
“ Do you know who I am ? “ Further sound heavy it.
“ Sorry sir, I'm guilty forgive me “ Ruby pleads.
“ Hah now you're afraid, aren't you, then where was your arrogance yesterday ? “ Rai's voice is flat but still creepy.
Eh ? Yesterday ? What happened yesterday ? Have I ever met him ? Ruby thought confused, trying to find memories in her head but the results were nil.
Seeing Ruby confused even more made Rai growled.
“ Hey do you know who I am ? “ reload it with an impatient starting tone.
“ I'm sorry sir, are you the famous Yuri secretary ? “ replied Ruby origin guess, she even just heard the name of secretary Yuri without ever meeting her. All he knew was that this place was led by Yuri's secretary.
“ What ?!? “ said Rai furiously but still master his wibawa.
“ Hahahaha “ heard a loud laughter that broke the tension.
Ken in his seat was already unable to control himself from laughing. Just this time he saw a woman in this country who did not know her brother, instead calling him Yuri's secretary.
The three others who were in the room simultaneously turned to Ken.
Why is he laughing like that, what's funny, you crazy guy I'm gonna slam you when I get out of here, it's all because of you. Maki Ruby's heart to Ken.
“ Ah sorry sorry “ said Ken after seeing them simultaneously turning his head together, especially when he saw his brother looking at him sharply. Then he raised a new one and moved his hand pulling the lip of the sign of silence.
“ Kick him from here “ Rai orders cold still expressionless.
What kick? Does that mean I'm fired? No, it can't happen, then dad's life will... Ruby's heart cried.
In desperation, he began to beg.
“ Forgive me Secretary Yuri, I am guilty, forgive me, please you punish anything as long as not to be fired, I beg you, otherwise my father's life will be... “ Ruby could not continue her application, her voice choked mixed with sobs, the details of – tears streaming down from her eyes.
“ What cares me “ Continue Rai coolly stick to his decision.
“ No, no, please forgive me, please forgive me. My father is sick, if I lose this job I can not pay for the medical expenses “ his crying more and more.
Aah so this is the reason she was practicing talking alone, wanting to face Anne to borrow money. Ken said in his heart.
“ I beg you to forgive me this time only, I beg you. I am willing to do anything for the sake of my father, despite having to give my heart, because his heartbeat is my heartbeat is also “ Ruby's cry is getting broken, his mind is really upset.
Deg. Rai's chest throbbed in pain hearing Ruby's words. Instantly his mind floated on the piece of paper he had read every night for these 10 years. His most precious treasure, the last letter from his mother before dying.
To my dear Rai,
I'm sorry I couldn't keep you company growing up, but I'll always be watching you from up here. Take care of me for mom, and also keep Ken. I'm sorry I had to go this way, but at least I'm happy. You will never be far away from me. I would do anything for you, even if I had to give you my heart, because your heartbeat is my heartbeat too.
Greetings to you, dear,
Ruby's sobbing broke her daydream, her mind returned and found Ruby's eyes wet and begging for forgiveness. His eyes were very similar to the eyes of his mother when apologizing to him first.
“ Mother “ she said softly.
“ Brother forgive him and let this matter pass “ Ken start the conversation.
But Rai's sharp views hint that there is no second chance. Not after the decision came out of his mouth.
“ Go you “ said Rai coldly but her tone softened. Her chest still ached at the thought of Ruby's words and her mother's will.
Feeling that there was no hope anymore Ruby got up and walked carelessly towards the door, her heart crumbled thinking about her father.
“ Brother are you sure you'll fire him ?” Ken asked Rai to convince.
With just one glance from Rai, Ken understood his brother's answer.
“ Well then, can I lift him up to be my private secretary, somehow I feel he is very similar to mother, his eyes and also a glimpse of his face “ said Ken weighing.
“ Take care of your words, how can you compare mom with such a lowly waitress “ said Rai began to get angry because Ken had gone too far.
But in his true heart Rai also admitted the truth revealed by Ken. Only his ego was too high to say it. The figure that he longed for so much seemed to be coming back but through a different form.
People say every human being is born with 7 twins scattered on the earth, although there is no blood relation at all sometimes they can be similar to each other on various sides. Maybe one of them is Ruby and Lorie.
“ Well then, I will make him my secretary, he will work under me “ Ken started talking reaffirming his wish. Then left the room following Ruby.
Rai was still silent as if he could not believe all this was real.
🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁
“ Wait miss.. “ cried Ken to Ruby in the hallway before Ruby entered the elevator.
Ruby looked at Ken.
Huh what else he wants, if he wants to mock me for my stupidity towards Yuri's secretary earlier. Ruby's heart scolded Ken.
“ Hey forgive my brother for his attitude earlier, where are you going, can we talk “ Ken said warmly, there was a guilty tone in his voice.
“ Alright “ replied Ruby in despair.
Along the way back to his study Ruby just silent, his mind was confused thinking about the fate of his father, if he lost his job what about his father's life.
They reached the balcony where they first met.
“ Forgive my brother “ said Ken started the conversation.
“ No I am at fault, because I do not recognize the sister of Secretary Yuri, I apologize “ replied Ruby with a tone of despair and the rest of her sobs.
“ Hahaha...you still think he's Yuri's secretary ? “ Ken asked with a laugh holding his stomach.
This girl is really something, Ken thought.
“ Of course, in this place who else has the right to fire someone else other than the whistleblower uh Manager Vi. I have never met a Yuri secretary, but I heard that she is the owner of this place, and I was so foolish to not recognize you as her sister, forgive me “ Ruby explained and lowered her head as an apology.
Make peace with your heart Ruby, this is the most effective medicine. Don't blame others for your stupidity, Ruby thought.
“ Hahaha..you are such an amazing girl, ah don't talk too formally with me, I guess we're “.
“ As an apology, will you work with me ? Mmm. I mean to be my secretary, I have some rather difficult business to handle myself, so need someone's help, I'm not forcing you, I'm not, but if you don't mind “ Ken explained carefully.
As soon as Ruby's face turned bright, her sobs had disappeared, changing into a cheerful smile. Getting as much money as possible is what matters.
“ Really ? “ ask her enthusiastically in disbelief.
“ Yes really “ replied Ken also with a smile.
“ Then what is my duty? “ ask again with curiosity.
“ First stop talking formally with me, I don't like “ Bright Ken.
“ Both of your duties are only taking care of me... Ah but don't get me wrong, I'm not a pervert or a bad person “ continued Ken explained because he saw Ruby's astonished gaze with the job he offered.
“ When I saw you crying and begging earlier you reminded me of my dead mother, you were so similar to her, I missed her so much, so. “ Ken's story but couldn't carry it on, his eyes looked far away.
Ken's phone ringer shocked him from his daydream. He took a quick glance, but did not want to lift it, he wanted to spend time with the “ibu” he so desperately missed.
He put the phone next to him, but accidentally touched the “abuti” button and the call was connected.
Ruby seemed to understand how she felt because she was like that too, if there was a person similar to her mother suddenly came, surely she would too. He also took a deep breath.
“ Well my son, mother will take good care of you, make sure you eat a lot and grow healthy, smile, spirit, hehehe “ replied Ruby like a mother to her child.
Ken's happy face could not be hidden. But not with someone's face at the end of the phone line listening to the conversation.
