For a while, Giga and Merlin were in a pretty warm situation. Cuddle and calm each other. Merlin moved his hand gently patting Giga's back slowly.
Giga who initially continued to fumble now began to calm down. His breathing began to settle and returned to normal.
For a moment Giga was stunned when she found herself hugging with her own assistant. It was even Giga who had first pulled Merlin's body closer to him.
For a moment Giga felt the smell of Merlin's body that made him calm. But when all the boisterous sounds typical of the hospital began to be heard in his ears, Giga immediately returned to consciousness. He immediately pushed Merlin's body away from him until Merlin fell backward.
"Aw!" peeking Merlin felt shock and pain simultaneously.
"What are you doing?" Giga asked as if Merlin was guilty of her.
"Sorry, Sir. I was not intentional." Merlin got up and stood face to face with Giga.
"Where are you going, huh? Didn't I tell you to wait outside the room?" Giga showed his regret due to Merlin.
"Sorry, Sir. I went back to the parking lot. I thought..."
"I told you to wait outside the room! Not in the parking lot."
"Once again forgive me, sir." Merlin bowed his body.
"Yes already! We're back in the office!" Without reprimanding Merlin again, Giga immediately walked out of the hospital. Merlin only shook his head slowly at Giga's departure.
"Sorry, Sir. Is your trauma that big? I feel more guilty. I should be able to get you back to normal, sir." Merlin muttered in his heart.
Upon arrival at the office, Giga has a meeting with Nathan and Merlin chooses to take a break. Merlin headed for the rooftop building which turned out to be very beautiful.
There's a garden on the roof of the building. Merlin sat on one of the long benches there. He thought of a way to get Giga to let go of his trauma.
"Well, you're here too!"
"Oh?! Mr Karel?" Merlin moved from her seat and greeted Karel.
"You like it here too?" ask Karel.
"Ah not really. Just once in a while, sir."
"What's wrong? Did Giga do something to you?" search Karel.
"Ah, no Sir. It's just..."
"Did Giga think you were a spy?"
"Well?!" Merlin closed his mouth. "How do you know, Sir?"
Karel showed her faint smile. "I know very well the nature of Giga. But you take it easy. You can tell me if there's a problem."
A smile rose on Merlin's lips. "Thank you very much, sir."
"It's time to get back to the office. Come on!" bring Karel. Merlin simply nodded then followed Karel's footsteps.
Merlin and Karel entered the elevator together. They will also be down on the same floor. Because Karel and Giga's workspace is on the same floor.
When the elevator door opened, along with Giga who was also in front of the elevator door. He searches for Merlin's whereabouts after a meeting with his father but it turns out Merlin is not at his desk.
"You guys?" Show Giga to Karel and Merlin.
"Ah, we just accidentally met." Karel replied casually. He casually exited the elevator and passed through Giga's body.
Giga stared intently at Merlin.
"You! Get in my room!" giga's orders.
Merlin nodded obediently and followed Giga's footsteps.

In the evening, Merlin and Resti were staring at the sky on the balcony of their room. The room of the very simple flats had been Merlin's friend for the past few years. Only this place has the cheapest rental price, even though the place is only perfunctory.
"Well, that's how. I feel very lucky to have met Mr. Karel. He was a very kind and caring person." Merlin told me with sparkling eyes.
"Geez, Mer. Looks like you're having syndrome."
"Karel Avicenna dong syndrome is for sure!"
"Ish, you! If you meet him, you'll be fascinated, too."
"Yes yes, Mer. I saw it a few times in print and online. But I've never met the real Karel."
The two of them continued to talk and laugh together until midnight.
Meanwhile at the Avicenna family home, Giga was still awake while looking at the ceiling of his room. He recalled the incident this afternoon between himself and Merlin.
Giga's face flushed in light of what he had done with Merlin. Merlin's warm embrace kept him calm. The gentle swipe of the hand reminded him of someone.
"Haish! N-no!" Giga shook his head quickly.
"Don't think anything, Giga!" Giga immediately closed his eyes and tried to sleep.

The next day, the,
"Now the anniversary of the company's 100th anniversary. You must prepare to become the heir to the new Avicenna Group, Giga." Nathan talks while having breakfast with Giga and Lian.
"Give the best speech in front of all our business partners" he said.
"So, are you going to announce Giga's appointment?" Lian frowned and looked at Giga.
"Yes, Ma. It's time for Giga to take over the company. You!" A sharp glare pointed at Giga.
"You have to be prepared for the public spotlight on yourself. So you have to try your best to keep your image and performance. Do you understand?"
Giga just stood still and nodded his head. He knew his father's temperament. Refusing is free.
At seven o'clock in the morning Merlin arrived at the Avicenna family home. As usual he greeted Lian with a friendly although impressed a little urgency because of his ignorance if Lian is Giga's grandmother.
"Gee, grandma is so diligent! Grandma's age is no longer young but still diligent work. Grandma should have told the host here to retire. They are cruel after all! Hiring an old lady to take care of the garden," Merlin's cerocos at length.
Lian just shook her head slowly with Merlin's open nature and what it was. He knew there was a side of Merlin that could change Giga's nature one day.
"You've come? Hurry along! We have to go to the office. I have a lot of work to do today!"
When Merlin entered the house, it turned out that Giga was already preparing with his work clothes. Giga's appearance is not as formal as Karel who is always neat with his suit. Giga prefers with his own style that seems relaxed. Giga wears a sweatshirt on the inside that he covers with a blazer and cloth pants.
According to Merlin, Giga's taste is a little strange because sometimes he wears a T-shirt with a picture of a Disney cartoon character. Yes, although it cannot be denied if the good looks of Giga still do not fade even if only wearing clothes.
Giga and Merlin were working in Giga's room all day. The man should prepare a good speech for the group's 100th anniversary.
Merlin helped Giga write a good speech by finding information about the company he worked for. They were sitting next to each other on Giga's couch.
Merlin appeared to be typing the speech script carefully and carefully. From the side, Giga noticed Merlin's changing face as he muttered the script he was typing.
"Master, it seems like there's nothing that needs to be replaced anymore. How, Master?" Merlin turned his head to the right and found Giga who was also staring at him.
His eyes were puffed up because he was so close to Giga.
"Tu-lord?" Merlin was nervous because Giga was looking at him.
While Giga was still at home staring at Merlin with a thought that had gone somewhere. He remembers Merlin's struggle to make him believe he's not a spy. She remembers how Merlin came to her room and woke her up. And finally, he remembered when Merlin helped him in the hospital. Merlin's warm embrace turned out to make Giga could not forget about it.
"You stole my attention. An ordinary girl who is not even beautiful, not sexy, and not fashionable. But he managed to steal my attention. Is this?" inner Giga.
