Mr. Bully
L2: 5. Attention - New Jeans
At two o'clock in the afternoon Olivia woke up from her sleep because of the sound of the cell phone not stopping ringing. Trouble with one eye open Olivia searches for a cell phone under the bed.
“Halo Jo's. What's up?”
[I'm in front of the house, open the door]
“...H-huh...A-what?”
[I'm in front of your house]
“.....You're in Indonesia? In front of my house?”
[Yes, hunting, rain.]
Olivia jumped out of bed and ran forward to open the door. As Johan smilingly appeared, the man entered after taking off his wet shoes.
“What sleep did you die of? I tap-tap no one answered, I guess you're in the same cafe as Rere. Well wet all over again” nagging Johan take off his jacket.
Olivia did not answer, instead opening one by one the bags the man was carrying. Madame Roses, one of the most expensive chocolates from Paris that Johan often brought to Olivia when he returned to Indonesia. Without permission Olivia took a box and ate the contents.
“Guests come instead of being noticed even cool themselves” recalls Johan when he saw Olivia pulling a blanket and sitting on the sofa. The man headed to the kitchen to brew some warm tea for himself and Olivia.
“Why did you suddenly go to Indonesia? Isn't it still next month?”
“I yesterday from Korea took care of the contract with the new ambasaddor. The completion turned out to be ahead of schedule and I sentin here”
“Who is the ambassador?”
“There is one member of the famous girl group” replied Johan sipping tea. “Kafe Rere how?”
“Mau evicted because his old owner moved abroad. The new owner has already given double the replacement money, but Rere insists he does not want to move”
“How's it going? Couldn't dong Rere demo?”
“I who intervened talking to the owner, still a business. I will force any way to let Rere not move”, Olivia said. “Try you guess who the owner is..”
“Alvaro Wijaya” continued Olivia, her expression turning sour as Johan laughed loudly.
“Kok laughs anyway?”
Johan laughs amusedly accidentally spilled a bit of tea on the floor, he stands up picking up a tissue with shaken shoulders from still giggling.
“Ih Johan, I told you”
“Sorry, sorry. Funny” reply Johan trying to hold back laughter makes his face reddened.
“More bad Varo company became my client this year. Last audit anyway, but I feel in hell”
“Bent....The new owner of the building occupied by Rere's cafe is Varo and you ngaudit last year diklijil ie company Varo?”
“Iya..”
Johan laughed again, he held his stomach and sat on the floor. Olivia snorted her chocolate bite waiting until Johan's laughter completely stopped.
“Yes my Olivia, what's the point of your six years lost contact with Varo but ultimately you are involved again with him?....Your destiny is so funny"
“Fate your eyes! Don't want me to have the same fate as him.”
Johan so his own smile made Olivia veca annoyed to throw the guy with a pillow.
“Laughter keep going! Satisfied you see friends suffer?”
“You again get the jackpot, just you ngangpepnya suffering. The Varo is still chasing you? Or is it cuek?”
Olivia shrugged her shoulders not answering. Varo's behavior the other day made Olivia almost boarded, but to this day the guy didn't text or call. Not hoping, but Olivia was just wondering what else the guy would do.
“Try to open your heart, checked, who knows there is still Varo there” seductive Johan then rush out when Olivia throws a pillow.
...----------------...
Rakai's eyes sparkled with excitement staring at the many snacks on the table. It's their third day of fieldwordk in ravent but food is plentiful indoors as if they're going to stay there.
”Kak, is this really edible? Wouldn't it be revealed if the sample document we asked for a lot?”
“Eat aja, at most you are told to vomitin” said Kesha took a snack. “Taste of marriage yes.”
Olivia took the snack on the table, but her mind went everywhere. All of this must be Varo's work, seeing a lot of chocolate on the table makes Olivia sure the man still remembers what Olivia likes.
“Wih, what is it?” Dendi had just entered the room surprised to see a lot of food on the table.
“From client, fortune son soleh” replied Kesha.
Dendi put the bag down and plucked a piece of sugar donut that was covered in a box. “Kayak farewell event yes, mentang-about next year is not the same we”
“Kalo good client like gini, I'm willing kak stay up late finish the job. If I need pending data I wait beside the accounting person, let me spout kelar” kekeh Kesha happy.
“Same ravent” knuckle Dendi agrees.
...----------------...
“Lu sure don't want to be together?” ask Kesha. Olivia shook her head showing the data.
Olivia glanced at the watch. At half-six, he waited until six and then tidied up his things. Olivia stepped out, her face wailing to make sure no more team was there. Olivia's feet quickly pressed the elevator to the floor where Varo was.
One breath of Olivia sounded. He tried to set his face as friendly as possible before speaking beautifully.
“Excuse me mbak.”
Beautiful looking up, it looks like the woman is getting ready to go home. “Iya mbak, how can I help?”
“Pak Varo is still inside? Or have you gone home?”
“There is still mbak, it looks like overtime. What is the need mbak?”
“I want something related to agremeent ravent, there is something I need to clarify dikit, fear of forgetfulness.emm, I have made a promise to Mr. Varo” lies Olivia. Foolishly, he had to meet the man to take care of the building rental problem.
Indah nodded her head in understanding then spoke by phone, after a while she let Olivia in.
“Thank you mbak” said Olivia walked into Varo's room.
Olivia's smile instantly disappeared as soon as her breath smelled the scent of Varo's room. The man sat at his desk with a stack of papers, he only looked up briefly to Olivia and pointed at her wireless.
“Sit down first, I'm still meeting” with Varo.
Olivia nodded and sat down on the sofa. His eyes looked at every corner of Varo's room in detail. The room with the dominant colors of dark brown and white, a large shelf containing a pialan award along with a photo of Varo with several important people neatly arranged there, then a large abstract painting forms a silhouette of a flower hanging on the wall. The painting must be very expensive, equivalent to ten times Olivia's monthly salary.
Olivia's head leaned against the sofa, her eyes glancing towards Varo who was visibly focused on the ipad screen. Feeling bored Olivia tried to close her eyes, the quiet and cold atmosphere of the room attracted Olivia's drowsiness.
Just a minute, Olivia's mind.
But slowly the comfort in the room even made Olivia really fall asleep.
...----------------...
Olvia is shocked to wake up from her sleep, she holds her chest in shock with her dream of almost falling in the abyss. Olivia's consciousness returns faster when she realizes she is in Varo's room. How long has Olivia been asleep? And what time is it?
“Udah wake up?” ask Varo from the side.
Olivia cleared her hair, her face reddened in shame from falling asleep.
“You're up late huh? Sleep really well, I did not have the heart to wake you” said Varo thrusting mineral water and tidying up the pile of paper.
“Makasih” replied Olivia was wrong to take a sip of that water. “Can you already?”
Varo nodded, put the paper on his desk and sat down next to Olivia. Olivia's face looked up and was a bit surprised to find the clock was already showing at eight in the evening. ****! Apparently Olivia was really fast asleep.
“Why are you here?”
“I want to talk about rent gedung” said Olivia slowly. “By not if Rere still rent your building? .....With same price”
“The building wants me to use to open ravent” toy store branch
“If your store stands together with Rere cafe how?” ask Olivia carefully. His expression was clearly waiting for Varo's reply.
“I personally do not like it anyway if there is another store near ravent.” store
Olivia looks disappointed, but she doesn't lose her mind. “Kalo how do we try first? I believe people who buy toys will be hungry and willing to eat sweets, the concept of Rere cafe is also good to complement your store. Buy toys, eat. Rere can also make a cake that looks like your game character, count promotions right?”
In Olivia's heart grimaced. I don't know where the idea came from but Olivia's mouth suddenly moved.
“By yes? Yea? Can ya?” ask Olivia to hope. His last move was to seduce Varo. Fuck her labeled a slutty chick, but this time it concerns a life and death cafe.
Varo looked at Olivia seriously, a moment later his laughter appeared. Jemari Varo twinges softly on Olivia's forehead.
“You woo me it will not make me directly agree with you” Varo amused smile.
Olivia breathed. Failed his attempt. Olivia's forehead leaned against the sofa, her eyes closed at the thought of what else she could do to seduce Varo.
“So we have to move?” ask Olivia to wash up.
“Should have been so.”
Olivia clucked softly and took her bag.
“Where are you going?”
“Return. I failed to make a deal with you, so I had to go home to tell Rere if I failed and we had to move” Olivia replied limply.
“I'm hungry. You must be hungry too, right? Now that it's eight, you can't afford to spend your dinner time” said Varo standing up to take his suit from the gallows.
“Ayo”
“Where?” Olivia looked confused.
“Eat night with me. As much as I give you the opportunity to change my thinking, who knows I'm excited to let you guys stay there” said Varo made Olivia's expression change, the woman's smile broadened.
“Serious?”
Varo nodded then lowered his head and whispered softly. “Now your attitude to me will erroneously everything.”
And Olivia couldn't hide her smile as Varo pulled herself out of the room.
