Love Without Memory
Egotistical

The clock was already showing at 12pm when Aleea finished her cooking class. That day Aleea again learned another technique in baking.

After returning from her cooking class, Aleea asked her driver to help her buy some cake-making equipment.

After getting all the equipment she needed, Aleea then bought quite a lot of the ingredients she would use to make the cake then went home after she got everything she needed.

Arriving home, without waiting for long, Aleea began to busy herself to organize her new equipment in the kitchen and store many of the ingredients of the cake she had just bought.

"Is there anything aunty can help non?" ask the aunt who saw Aleea long enough to dwell in the kitchen.

"Thank you Bi, but Aleea can do it herself" Aleea replied.

After finishing tidying things up, Aleea then walked into her room, reviewing back what she had just learned in the cooking class.

"I'm going to make a cake that Nathan likes, even if he doesn't like sweet food, it doesn't mean he doesn't like cake, I'm going to make it according to what Nathan likes" Aleea said with a smile.

Elsewhere, Nathan was in the cafeteria with Evan at lunchtime.

"Tumben once I didn't see Vina with you!" said Evan.

"I'm teaching him a lesson not to be out of bounds with me" Nathan replied.

"What is the boundary between you and Vina? haven't you been so close?" ask Evan.

"Even if we're close doesn't mean he can get into Evan's private sphere, I love his hard work and his work is always perfect, which is why I'm close to him because I want to keep him working with me, but that doesn't mean he can do whatever he wants to do to me" Nathan explained.

"And I've never liked him more than a work partner" Nathan replied with a faint smile.

Unbeknownst to Nathan and Evan, Vina overhears all of Nathan and Evan's conversations.

"You are indeed cunning Nathan, you made me like you with all your treatment of me, but you never liked me one bit more than because of my work" Vina said in her heart and took her step away.

Vina dropped herself on the chair, silent for a while by propping up her chin on her desk.

He was thinking about what he should do, go and forget Nathan or keep trying to get close to Nathan and pretend not to know what he just heard.

"Why are you here? you usually have lunch with Nathan!" ask one of Vina's friends.

"There's a lot of work to be done" Vina replied reasoned.

"Is Mr Nathan starting to ignore you because he's married?"

Vina just shook her head slowly and started to open the file on her desk.

The closeness of Vina and Nathan has become a public secret in the company, but they all choose to stay quiet and focus on their work regardless of how Vina and Nathan relate.

Well, sometimes humans are too busy to lose their sense of care. That's exactly what happened in the corporate environment where Nathan and Vina worked.

Although there are some of them who seem to care, but their concern is always ignored by the selfish attitude that dominates the humans who are in the environment.
