I took my eyes off the annoying sight. Then step foot towards the empty chair in the back row. I was sitting there, a place where no one was paying attention.
The whole camera is on and ready to record. The host who was in the middle of the stage raised his mic and started talking, opening the event.
"Good day everyone...."
During the event I just sat while watching the event. Sometimes I laugh when the presenter says funny things.
"As we all know, Arkana Group has launched a lot of products, both in the form of food and non-food. Not to be arrogant..." The presenter coughed once before continuing. "This is the fifth time I've hosted a new product launch event here. Just like before, this time Arkana group also launched an extraordinary product, which is eagerly awaited and needed by the community. But..." It stopped again. Everyone was silent, waiting curiously.
"There has been something that has disturbed my view since then and this is what distinguishes me from previous events that I have brought, namely the presence of a handsome man sitting not far in front of me," he said, pointing at Alan with his hand. The camera is now pointing at him.
The presenter was about to go down and approach Alan. However, it was prevented by the organizers. They actually allowed Alan to go to the stage so as not to turn his back on the reporters who were covering.
"As you can see, Mr. Ars is here now. Good afternoon Mr. Ars" the presenter said, turning to Alan as he stood by his side.
"Good day, Mario," Alan replied with a faint smile. He's very handsome. Some of the women in front of him looked dazzled until his face turned red. There is something wrong with his behavior when he accidentally met him.
The presenter faced forward again, staring at the camera. "By the way it's the first time I've met him, I'm a little nervous now" he said with a small laugh. His hands were trembling a little. It seems like he was really nervous.
"Friends here are probably as curious as I am. As we know, as the president of Arkana Group, of course, he is very busy. But this time he took the time to attend this event. I wonder, what is it or what special thing that makes Mr Ars go down the mountain directly in the launch of a new product this time?" he turned to Alan again.
Both corners of Alan's mouth curved upwards, forming a smile. He raised his face, brought the mic closer to his mouth and began to speak. "As Mario said, it's special." Alan lifted the drink packaged in the form of a glass bottle, which has a unique design like a small urn. "The products we release now are different from the drinks we produced before. This drink is not only to relieve thirst or pamper the tongue alone, but also has excellent nutrition for the body. This drink is perfect for all women who want soft, beautiful and healthy skin of course. As owned by the two women next to me," he said while glancing at the beauty, duo/group of women who became brand ambassadors of the new product. "So, for the women out there, both teenagers, adults and mothers, try our new products and feel the benefits" he said with the most charming smile.
I'm still in the same place. Sitting quietly while looking at him proudly. I think everyone's take on Alan is right. There is no shame in that man, he is perfect. Not only handsome, but also rich, friendly and smart of course.
"There's one more thing I want to say." Alan opened his mouth again. He was still smiling and his eyes seemed to sparkle. "It's about personal issues" he continued.
Mario who was sitting next to him looked shocked to the point of being speechless. His big eyes widened in shock. A few seconds later he spoke again. "Oh, I think our friends will be happy to hear it" he said, turning to reporters lined up in front of them.
As Mario had said just now, the reporters did not hide their happy expressions. Rarely does a businessman express his personal problems willingly. Moreover, this was about Alan, a figure who had a thousand attractions. In addition, the personal life of a conglomerate can always attract the attention of some people in this country. They checked the recorders and cameras once again, making sure they were working properly.
Just like everyone else, I was also curious as to what Alan would say. We both waited enthusiastically.
Alan glanced at me for a moment, after which he looked back at the camera. "I like someone" he said out loud.
The smiles of the reporters grew wider. It seems they got what they wanted.
"Who is that, Mr Ars? Is he a businessman or a celebrity?" tanyanya while tilting her head. "He's very lucky to be liked by a guy like you" he added.
Alan shook his head. "No. She's an ordinary girl, but also an extraordinary."
"An ordinary girl but amazing." The presenter repeated Alan's words with a frowning forehead. He scratched his head before asking. "Mr Ars, I'm a little stupid, can you explain the meaning of the words just now?
"The woman I love is not a businessman, nor a celebrity or public figure" Alan explained, glancing at me.
I was relieved that no one noticed Alan's gaze when he said that.
"The woman must be beautiful" guessed the presenter.
"Of course" said Alan, turning away from me. Look back at the presenter and at the camera. "My woman is very pretty. Her eyes were big, like a doll. He was a little short, but never admitted that he was short" he added with a small laugh.
"He was fierce and chatty, but he took very good care of me. He is also very loving and very patient. When I misbehaved and made him angry, he just sighed with glaring eyes. My boyfriend is so cute, his face will blush whenever he feels embarrassed. Besides he's always out of breath when we kiss."
My body froze. No, it's not just me. I think everyone was shocked by his words. Alan was too outspoken.
"Ups, I think I'm slipping. If he was here, he would have pinched my thighs hard" he said, chuckling
Everyone laughs. Especially the reporters who had been listening with bright smiles, like the weather outside.
"Mr Ars, you must really like it" the presenter said.
"Hm, very," said Alan, nodding his head. The smile on his face faded. "But, it seems like he doesn't like me," he continued with a gloomy face. He looked down, staring at the cotton pants attached to his level legs.
