Not Just an Obsession
Chapter 34: The Past of Hesron and Zhinta


"Gosh, my bed is no longer holy!!" screeched Bratt while patting his eel.


"I think I should buy a new bed." Bratt said again.


Hesron twisted his rough sigh while rolling his lazy eyeballs.


"Oh.. Yes, has Alea come?" Ask Bratt.


Hesron flicked his shoulder a sign he didn't know.


"Oh.yeah, ten o'clock we have a meeting to discuss the concept for the shampoo ad that the tender we just won.


"Why sudden?" Ask Bratt.


"It's not sudden, you're busy with your own business!" Hesron lied. Hesron has just made that schedule.


"But you don't seem ready for today's meeting. So let me have a meeting later, I'll tell you the results." Said Hesron again.


"All right, I agree. You do understand me the most, brother." Reply Bratt.


"Yes, I'm back to work then." Pamit Hesron's. Hesron came out of Bratt's study, leaving Bratt troubled to think of Alea.

The clock has shown at ten in the morning.


Now Hesron and Zhinta were already in the meeting room and just the two of them were without any representatives from the other division.


"All right, our meeting's starting." Hesron.


"But the others haven't come yet sir."


"Yes from another division sir."


"I didn't call them in a meeting. This meeting is just for the both of us." Reply Hesron.


Zhinta's eyes were rounded.


"Don't misunderstand me! Because Mr. Bratt can't go to meetings, so he asked me to discuss the concept with you first. Give me three or five concept ideas in your head, let me give them to Mr. Bratt. If any of the ideas you've given are accepted by Mr. Bratt, we'll meet again." Hesron lied.


For the reason that Hesron actually made an impromptu meeting with Zhinta because Hesron was jealous of the reason Zhinta said that she had come late to the office because she wanted to pick up her fiance at the airport. Hesron's brain travels everywhere.


Hesron and Zhinta had a special relationship three years ago. At that time Zhinta was still a regular employee in graphic design like Alea while Hesron was already Bratt's assistant.


They keep their relationship secret because there are company regulations that do not allow employees to have a relationship with one office.


And the hidden relationship makes their relationship not run smoothly. Hesron was always jealous if he saw Zhinta having lunch with a male employee, as well as Zhinta, Zhinta was also jealous if she saw or knew Hesron was meeting outside with a female client. Plus the busyness of Hesron who had to deal with the company because at that time the company had experienced a devastating shock due to the splash news made Malika.


Quarrels continued and no one was willing to budge, both Hesron and Zhinta felt themselves right. Even the forcible Hesron had Zhinta quit Bratt Creative Digital and work elsewhere so they could publicize their relationship. But Hesron's proposal was even wrongly interpreted Zhinta, Zhinta instead accused Hesron of sending him out so that Hesron could freely tempt female employees.


Unable to stand the toxic relationship, Hesron and Zhinta agreed to end the relationship, even though they had only been in a relationship for six months.


But even though their relationship was over, Hesron was still monitoring Zhinta, he was still jealous if he saw Zhinta on the road with another man. Hesron even once saw Zhinta in the mall with a man, out of curiosity about Zhinta's relationship with the man, Hesron approached them in a pretend-meeting mode.


Zhinta who knew that Hesron was only a mode of pretending to meet when he was a kepo, immediately introduced the man who was with him as his fiancee.
