Love Blocked Promise
Andrew

Andrew held the package containing the muffin up. Arriving in front of his room he turned to the secretary's desk, where there was always Clara who always greeted him with a smile. The smile that always makes Andrew seem to forget how to breathe. This time the table looked empty, due to the possibility of Clara having lunch.

Yep... Clara is the woman who has always filled the heart of Andrew all this time. But he never had the courage to express his feelings. She was always afraid that Clara and her family could not accept, her status that was only a child being picked up from the streets. Although, actually now his life can be said to be established, but the feeling of fear, will still appear when he wants to express his heart.

Andrew let out a heavy sigh, then he stepped into his room.After that, he grabbed the phone on his desk to connect to the pantry.

" Please get Jenny into my room. Get him coffee with you" Andrew put the phone back on the table after answering yes from the Pantry section.

"Lake in!" andrew orders when there's a knock from the outside. He's sure it must be Jenny.

The squealing sound of the door someone opened from outside, distracting Andrew for a moment. That's right, if the one who knocked on the door was Jenny.

"This is the coffee, sir."Jenny placed the glass containing the coffee on the table, right in front of Andrew sitting down. When there is near Andrew Jenny's seasonal illness will always recur. His heart will beat twice as fast, than a normal heartbeat in general.

"Thank you" Andrew said without taking his eyes off the screen in front of him.

Jenni pursed her lips looking at the cold and indifferent attitude of Andrew. " I'll leave sir! " Jenny twisted her body, slightly upset that she didn't get any answers from Andrew's mouth.

"Miss Jenny wait a minute!" Andrew's voice suddenly called out, making a single smile rise on Jenny's lips.

"Yes, sir, what's wrong?" Jenny's mouth was fast with beads of eyes that shone with excitement.

" Tuh, muffin for you.Tadi Alena leave it to me to be given to you!" Andrew pointed to the table, where there were two packs of muffins. After that he looked back at the monitor screen in front of him

Jenny felt disappointed, as she thought Andrew called her back because he wanted to be alone with her. But it turned out to only give muffins.

With her lips furrowed, Jenny stepped towards the table, then took the package containing the muffin.After that she left Andrew's room with a sad face.

"Lake in!" yelled Andrew from inside, as he came back knocking from the door.

"What else is Miss Jenny? is there something left behind? " Andrew asked without looking at the door that someone had just opened and closed again.

"I'm not Jenny, Mr. Andrew, I'm Clara" Clara said with a smile on her lips.

Andrew turned his gaze from the monitor to look at the woman's face. Instantly he felt as if his body was frozen and felt claustrophobic to breathe.In his head now like many beautiful butterflies flying around his head.

"Oh, are you Clara? What was? " asked Andrew after successfully neutralizing his slight heartbeat and groin.

Clara swung her steps closer so that the distance between Andrew and herself was not too far away.

"Please don't get too close !I was afraid that if you got closer, my heart would jump and I could forget how to breathe" Andrew cried out .

With slightly trembling hands, Andrew grabbed the invitation from the table. The butterfly that had been flying was now gone somewhere, changing with the dark clouds that now surrounded it. The air in the room was now gone without a trace.

"W-You're getting married? " andrew's voice seemed to be stuck in his throat when he asked the question that hurt his heart.

"Yes Sir! my wedding will be held next week. I hope Mr. Andrew and Mr. Daven can be here" Clara returned with a sweet smile.

"You're married to Steve? is that Steve you're referring to, Mr Steve Holmes, the owner of the Holmes group?"

"Yes Sir! Clara nodded her head.

Andrew took a deep breath and exhaled his back violently.His desire to have Clara became increasingly impossible. How could he possibly compete with Steve, a young entrepreneur who has recently become known as a successful entrepreneur. While he is just a personal assistant and is a child whose origins are unclear.

"Have you two been in a relationship for a long time? "

"Not too long, sir! Still about a month "sahut Clara relaxed.

"Isn't that a really fast time to get married?" Andrew squinted both of his eyes.

" to me, Mr. Andrew is not good looking, but he is also a businessman. So why else linger delaying marriage ! I'm tired of working anyway.By being Steve's wife, I no longer need to work hard. I can also shop for luxury items later "Clara is starting to look arrogant.

" Actually, I know that you have feelings for me, Mr. Andrew. But I'm sorry, how could I choose you who's just an assistant rather than Steve who's a businessman.If I choose you I mean I'm stupid" Clara sat up with a small grin rising at the corner of her lips.

Andrew was quite stunned by Clara's words. She did not expect, behind her beautiful face and friendly attitude turned out to be a materialistic Clara.

Actually with the salary that Andrew received every month, Andrew could just meet the needs of Clara by buying luxury items like Clara wanted. It's just that all along, he didn't want to be arrogant in front of people.

Andrew exhaled quickly, then looked back at Clara.

"Alright, later me and Mr. Daven try to be present" said Andrew resigned.

"Thank you, Mr. Andrew. I really wish for the presence of both of you. Because my wedding is very luxurious, it can be a motivation for you Mr. Andrew, to be more active in saving money, to be able to make your wedding a luxury later, like my wedding " tucked in the insinuations on Clara's speech to Andrew.

"Thank you for the advice.But it seems I don't have to attend first, your wedding can only make a fancy wedding.Because honestly, if I want to, if I want to,tonight I can even make a wedding party more luxurious than your wedding party" said Andrew.

"Oh, then, I say thank you, Mr. Andrew, there are still many things I need to take care of for my marriage. For the resignation letter, tomorrow I'll hand it to you." Clara stepped out after Andrew nodded his head.
