Zena is running towards the absentee, as soon as she'll be late. And it feels good to be out on time. His breath was still running after he ran.
Last night Zena and Maya were too busy chatting until they forgot time. And now Zena has to suffer the consequences.
Zena slowly regained her breath so that she could start working properly.
Before long, Zaka who had also just come, told him to go inside his room. Zena breathed a heavy sigh. You see today did not have time for breakfast, and early in the morning must have faced the boss. Address is long standing.
Before entering Zena knocked on the door first and after Zaka answered, Zena just entered.
" Good morning, Mr. Zaka. Today's schedule." said Zena.
" Wait, did I ask you to come here to hear my schedule today?" ask Zaka while looking at Zena.
" No sir. But why did Mr. Zaka send me to Zaka's room this morning if not to know Zaka's work schedule," said Zena with a smile.
" Don't be pretentious if I haven't asked what I want" Zaka said.
The atmosphere became silent for a moment, until the sound of Zena's starving stomach sounded.
" What is that sound?!" ask Zaka.
" I'm sorry Mr. Zaka. That was the sound of my stomach, I forgot breakfast, ", Zena replied rather embarrassedly.
" Please order something, for me. I haven't had breakfast either" Zaka ordered.
" Good sir," Zena replied as she stroked her stomach.
Zena returned to her seat ordering bread and fried chicken and 2 coffees online.
Zena does have an ideal body, tall and slim. But when it comes to eating, he never chooses food. In the sense that he never dieted, only ate according to the needs of his body.
Zena waited for the food courier to arrive. Not long after, the courier arrived. Zena was happy and immediately paid for her order.
Zena immediately brought the package of food to Zaka's room.
" It's Zaka sir's food and drink order" Zena said as she showed it to Zaka.
" Put it there and eat it right away. There is something I want to tell you" said Zaka.
Zena was a little worried. Dikasih eat and drink for free and then. Zena was goosebumps imagining herself coming to an end. But care very much, there are free food and drinks to be eaten first. Others will think later.
Zena ate fried chicken vigorously and she enjoyed it a lot. Zaka with a smile approached Zena.
" Don't you eat? Please, I have ordered bread for Mr. Zaka" said Zena while eating.
" No, I rarely eat breakfast. You just eat everything" Zaka said as he sat down.
"What?! All this food for me?! Address really there will be a massacre here," Zena said inwardly.
After Zena finished eating, Zaka looked very serious which made Zena aim.
" Zena, I have a job for you" said Zaka
" job? So Mr Zaka has no intention of firing me?!" ask Zena.
" What do you mean Zena. So you seemed agitated thinking I was going to fire you?" ask Zaka with a smile.
" Ayeah right. But now I'm happy, Mr. Zaka still needs me" Zena replied with a smile." What I have to do Mr. Zaka, I will always be ready."
" Good then. I want you to pretend to be my girlfriend as long as my parents are here" Zaka said.
Zena gasped in shock and looked at the boss with a question mark.
" I know it's overkill, but I really need your help to make my parents believe I have a boyfriend" Zaka said.
" Wouldn't Zaka be engaged?" ask Zena.
" In fact, I called off the engagement and my excuse was because I already had a lover. So, how? Are you willing to help me? Take it easy, I'll pay and count it as overtime" Zaka said.
" Well, I'm willing," Zena replied.
Zaka was very happy to hear Zena's reply. The beautiful girl will eventually become her real lover. That's what Zaka expected. Maybe now just pretending to be her boyfriend.
Zaka explains to Zena, what to do when Zena becomes her pretend lover. Zena just sighed making Zaka worried.
" Do you understand?" ask Zaka.
" understand. But sir, what if everyone in the office knows all this?" ask Zena.
" The important thing is not to let them know we're pretending" Zaka said.
" What does Zaka mean?!" ask Zena.
" Let them know we're real lovers. If they know we're pretending, it'll ruin my image and yours too right?" ask Zaka.
" It's true too" said Zena.
" Do your best for this job. If physical contact is needed, just do it according to the conditions" Zaka said.
" But I hope the physical contact is not excessive" Zena said.
" Again" replied Zaka.

Maya recalls Zena's words to be unashamed and confident. After work he stopped by Dodi's workplace, the man he secretly loved.
Maya pretends to buy something while waiting for her to come home from work. As she sees Dodi preparing to return home, Maya approaches her.
" Will you go home?" ask Mala.
" Yes, what are you here to buy?" ask Dodi.
" Just buy a drink" Maya replied, showing her the bottle.
" I'll take you home" said Dodi.
" I.m out of the house."
" What?! Why, is there a problem?" ask Dodi.
" I'll be betrothed to my parents, but I won't. I don't know him, how can we get married?" maya said sadly.
" Your parents must have found the best match for you. You can try and get to know him more closely. This is my advice as your best friend" said Dodi.
Maya seems disappointed by Dodi's words that don't care about her feelings at all. Encouraging her to accept the match from her parents. It really made Maya's heart hurt.
Maya looks at Dodi who is taking her bike. Once close, Maya emboldens herself to be frank about her feelings.
" Dodi, I like you," Mala said holding her breath.
Dodi stopped her path and looked towards the embarrassed Maya.
" Don't joke like that, you're a woman. How do you say such a thing first?!" said Dodi.
" I know. But, if I don't say it will you tell me?" ask Maya.
" No, I never liked you. All this time I just thought of you as my best friend nothing more than that" replied Dodi.
" I just want to make sure that there can be no love between us. And I'll be calmer when I know it from your own mouth" Maya said, trying to hide her sadness.
After saying that, Maya stepped away leaving Dodi who kept looking at her with a sad look. Dodi also put her heart on Maya. But a few days ago, Maya's father came to see Dodi to stay away from Maya because Maya was about to get married. So her father Maya does not want her future husband Maya to think that Maya and Dodi are in a relationship.
" I'm sorry Maya" said Dodi.
