My Culun CEO
#157 - I Can't Do It

Freya clenched her hands looking at the three girls who used to bully her often. What a terrible destiny to have to meet again with them even with different circumstances.

"What?! What do you want, huh?!" challenge a girl named Trias by nudging Freya's arm.

"How dare you yell at Trias, huh?! Are you tired of living?" sahut girl named Rere.

"Ckckck, the geeky will still be geeky even though his appearance has changed. How pathetic!" the other girl named Queen.

Freya looked at them one by one bravely. He was caught off guard by their attitude that never changed.

"Stop playing something like this!" freya said, braced.

"You think you're great just for making fun of me? What are the benefits to you? The satisfaction? You're the pathetic ones!" squealing Freya to make the boutique visitors look at them.

Kartika, the boutique owner finally intervened to handle the commotion. Kartika knows Freya. Of course her husband was a business associate of the Moremans family.

Kartika warned the three girls not to come to her boutique again. Kartika asks a security guard to evict the three of them.

Kartika patted Freya on the shoulder. "You okay?" ask Kartika.

"Eh?" Freya still could not believe what was going on.

"Freya? You okay?" kartika asked Freya.

Freya looked at Kartika. "Aunt Kartika..." Freya cried and hugged Kartika.

While Aisha can only gawk because it shakes with what just happened to her nonanya.

Freya returned to her quiet home. There was no welcome from the mother who usually warmly welcomed him.

Freya let out a rough breath. He went straight to the room and laid down his tired body. Today was quite exhausting for his body and heart.

I don't know why this morning Freya didn't come to see Damian. Is there something wrong with Freya?

"I'm sorry, Damian... I don't know why I'm starting to get scared when I have to be with you. Ilove you. But I'm still scared." Freya muttered then closed her eyes. Freya fell asleep without changing her work clothes.

The next day at the Ford house,

Today Damian will return to work as usual. He had enough rest. Now he has to take back his life.

Damian, who was tidy in his work suit, saw Jonathan leaving in a hurry. The curious Damian finally chased after Jonathan.

"Dad! What was? Why rush?" ask Damian.

"Damian, I just got word from the nursing home that your grandfather's illness is coming back. I'll see him soon."

"What's? Then I'll come, too, Dad."

Damian's plan to go to the office was eventually canceled. He calls Josh to handle his job.

Damian and Jonathan drive different cars. During the trip, Damian feels guilty for Joseph. He regretted that he had not visited his grandfather for a long time and thought only about his heart.

Damian's phone is vibrating. A call from Freya. Damian, who was focused on driving, did not answer Freya's call. Not because of purpose. But more so he did not feel the vibrations coming from his phone.

On the other hand, Freya felt disappointed that Damian did not answer her call.

"It's still morning. Is he busy?" muttered Freya who was also about to leave for the office.

"I'll call you later. I had a meeting this morning." Freya took the bag and left immediately.

Tonight, Freya invites Edo and Rizka to dinner at home. Freya hasn't cooked in a long time.

This time he really enjoyed preparing dishes for dinner later. At seven in the evening, Edo and Rizka arrive and are greeted by Freya.

"Thank you for coming" said Freya.

"So long you've missed your cooking, Dek!" Edo scrambled Freya's hair slowly.

"Then let's just eat!"

Dinner was held solemnly. Edo loves Freya's cuisine, as well as Rizka's.

"Sir, what exactly did you invite us here for? I'm sure there must be something you want to talk about. Aye right?" terka Edo's.

Freya nodded. "Yes, Bang. I have something to talk to you guys about."

"What's wrong? It seems like a serious thing" said Rizka.

"Emh, look. I ... want to get out of More Trans," Freya said as she looked at the two people in front of her.

"Exit the company? Don't joke, Deck!" Edo is shocked by Freya's sudden statement.

"Yes, Bang. I don't want to be considered a mumpung aji because suddenly I became a family of Moremans in a short time."

"What do you mean, Dek? You are a member of the Moremans. It's just the talk of a handful of people who are jealous of your success." Edo doesn't accept that anyone would demean Freya.

Edo and Rizka looked at each other.

"alright. Then what do you want?" ask Edo to find a solution.

"I want to start my own business, Bang. I want to start from the beginning. Did you agree to it?" Freya said with anxious expectation.

Edo glanced at Rizka for a moment. "The gate will not prohibit. But what do you want to do? Are you sure you can do it?"

Freya nodded steadily. "I'm sure I can, Bang."

Edo and Rizka could not dispute Freya's wishes.

"Then, what about your relationship with Damian?" ask Edo again.

"That problem .. me and him will solve it."

Three days later,

Freya decides to buy an apartment for herself to live in. With the help of Naina and Harvey, Freya moved the items she felt were necessary. He didn't bring much stuff.

"Why did you decide to move, Frey?" ask Naina.

"There's nothing, brother. I just want to start everything from scratch" Freya replied by showing her a row of teeth.

"Thank you for the help of Harvey's brother and sister" he continued.

"Yes, equally. Then me and Harvey say yes! If there's anything, don't hesitate to call me."

"Yes, Brother. Thanks again."

After Naina and Harvey died, Freya laid her body on the couch. He breathed a sigh of relief because now he was about to start a new life.

The sound of the vibration of his phone made Freya sit back and take the flat object. Damian's name was on his phone screen.

Freya took a breath before answering.

"Hello..." Damian's voice came from across the phone.

The voice that Freya missed so much.

"Hello... W-what's up?" ask Freya.

"Can we meet?"

"Emh, could. Where are you gonna meet?"

"I'm in front of your house."

Call ended. Freya even forgot to tell Damian if she had now moved into an apartment.

With lightning fast Freya headed to her house in a car. He didn't want Damian to wait any longer.

Freya got out of the car and saw Damian still standing in front of her house.

"Damians! Why not come in?" said Freya with gasps.

"No. I know you've moved into the apartment."

"Eh? I'm sorry I haven't told you."

"It's okay. I get it." Damian looked at Freya. "There's something I want to talk to you about."

"Me too" said Freya.

"All right, you go first!"

Freya invites Damian into the house but Damian refuses. Finally they headed to a cafe not far from Freya's house.

"Say!" damian's orders.

"I'm .. I'm out of the company. And I'm out of the house too. I want to start my own life."

"Then?"

"I know I love you, Damian. But .. I can't do it. I don't know if I can survive or not. I was very confident in the beginning, but..."

Damian just kept quiet and listened to Freya.

"I want to make my own dream come true first. I'm sorry if I haven't been able to make your dream come true..."

Damian sighed. "I'm being careful with you too."

"Eh? Since when?"

"Since you refused to marry me. Although you said you wanted to accompany me, but .. I know everything must be difficult for you. I-i understand. I'm forcing my will on you too."

It was Freya's turn to be silent.

"I will also live my own life. I'm moving to Paris tomorrow. Grandpa was sick and Dad asked me to come with him. Do you mind?" damian asked, looking at Freya.
