OLD LOVE HAS NOT YET EXPIRED
CLBK~20's

Mentari tried to stop the taxi, he had to leave this restaurant immediately and stay away from Zio and Juan. But again he failed to find a taxi and if he ordered a taxi or ojek online he would definitely wait again.

Mentari stared at the restaurant, there was Zio who came out and rushed into his car. Mentari quickly hid behind the bushes to keep Zio from seeing him. He did not want to meet Zio first but he did have to go back to the office. It works and it has to be professional. At least if Zio fires him later, he should be there and receive clarity.

Mentari has to think hard to get a new job. He must find a company where the CEO or boss is a woman so that he is not tempted or harassed at the place he later worked after Zio fired him.

Zio's car has gone, followed by Juan's car has passed. Mentari immediately ordered a taxi online and after making sure it was safe, he emerged from the bushes but he did not expect once he came out of hiding, someone stared strangely at him.

"Hey lady, what are you doing behind the bushes? Are you a lunatic? Beautiful really crazy," said the man who was actually shocked to see Mentari emerging from the bushes.

His mouth was spicy too!

"Gue again for the crickets! I'm not crazy, yes" replied Mentari ketus.

The man shrugged both his shoulders indifferently, then he just passed by leaving Mentari who was staring in wonder at him.

"Based on a freak!" gumam Mentari's..

Shortly after the online taxi orders Mentari came, he then entered and remained silent in the taxi until in front of the office. Mentari lazily got out of the car and started walking into the company.

Arriving at the company, Mentari entered and he called Juan to update him because he had ignored calls and messages from the man.

"Juan, I'm at the office. You just calm down okay, we will talk again yes," Mentari said as Juan answered his phone.

Juan who was behind Mentari immediately approached him and said yes that makes Mentari tipped because Juan was already beside him.

Mentari stroked his chest while keeping his phone in a bag. He was surprised because Juan was suddenly nearby. He stopped his steps and glanced at the clock on his wrist. There are still a few minutes before lunch is over.

"Lu just came Mentari? Sorry our lunch was disturbed" said Juan and Mentari could only nod softly.

"I should be the one apologizing for-"

"Not to continue. We'll talk later. And one thing you should know, everyone has a past whether it's good or bad. We can't escape the past because it's already happened and we can't go back to fixing everything. That's for the future, Mentari. The future will help us to be better than the past. Lu who is excited, I am relaxed to face the previous," said Juan trying to encourage Mentari, he knew Mentari must feel bad for him.

There was relief in Mentari's heart knowing Juan was not affected by Zio's behavior. He was worried if Juan no longer wanted to be friends with him.

Then Juan bowed slightly as Mentari's body was shorter than his. He then whispered, "Who doesn't know if our CEO is a Casanova. You have to be careful with her mentari. It's not just you doing what he's doing. That's much! So you need to be more alert and keep yourself safe, okay."

While giving thanks again in his heart, Juan was so kind and did not bother about Zio kissing him earlier. He did not even look down on Mentari, instead this man gave him spirit and asked him to be careful. Ah yes, it is true that the rumors of the CEO being a Casanova are already widespread in this office.

"Thank you Juan, you're so good. I'm so glad you're in this office. And I hope you still love me even though you're just a friend of the doang," said Mentari, for some reason he was afraid if Juan changed and no longer put his feelings on him.

"Lu said what the hell Mentari, I still love you. As a friend and also as a man to his woman. You should know that, don't think you the thing that happened earlier instantly made everything change huh. You are too low to judge something and do not lower yourself anymore" said Juan and Mentari immediately thinning his lips.

Juan invites Mentari to walk again and enter the elevator even though later they will be separated because their room is on a different floor.

Behind them, Zio clenched both his hands. Since then he waited in the car for Mentari's arrival because he had contacted Ramon who had been in his room and asked Mentari but Ramon said, because he had contacted Ramon who was in his room and asked Mentari, Mentari had not yet arrived so Zio decided to just wait in his car.

He saw Mentari get off the taxi and unfortunately as soon as he tried to chase Juan first approached Mentari and the two looked so familiar that Zio glared as he saw Juan hump. He thought Juan would kiss Mentari but as soon as he observed, Juan was just talking without kissing Mentari. But such a pose made Zio upset. He will vent it later when he is in his room.

Zio got out of the elevator and walked towards his room. He thinned his lips when he saw Mentari had started his work. It stops next to Mentari.

Mentari was aware of Zio's arrival, but he was not in the mood to talk to this annoying guy. He chose to be cool and just focus on his work.

From his place, Ramon sees the strangeness that is happening to him. Ramon is convinced and believes that soon the ex-lover couple who are now bosses and secretaries will make a fuss.

"So, you come with me to the room. Now!" zio said then he walked into his room with a little slamming the door hard.

Mentari and Ramon were aghast, Ramon then looked at Mentari and the girl simply replied with her head on her sleeve.

He must be mad at me because I slapped him. But he even speaks in formal language, maybe he's going to fire me now. Yes, I face it.

"What is Mentari?" ask Ramon.

"I made a mistake, Mr. Ramon, maybe the boss will fire me" Mentari replied. "I went in first" he continued, and rushed into Zio's room.

Mentari was careful as soon as he opened the door. He did not want the incident where Zio trapped him by waiting behind the door and ended up with a kiss.

"No need to be so alert, I'm sitting in my chair."

The loud but cold voice made Mentari gasp. His movements were apparently read by Zio. Mentari continued his steps in front of Zio.

"Sit down!"

Mentari sat down and faced Zio. He was a little surprised to see Zio's face, never had Mentari seen Zio like this before. His face was flat and cold. Likewise with his tone of speech that is quite formal and surprising Mentari. Zio suddenly changed.

"Okay Mentari, I'm straight away. I apologize for my bad treatment and I have forgiven you for slapping me. We are now break even and from now on work well and more professionally. I will no longer behave as usual because maybe you are not comfortable with my behavior so far. I'm not going to fire you, and hopefully today's events can be forgotten and will not happen again. Now go back to your place and work hard!"

Zio's words certainly made Mentari surprised, he lost consciousness for a while before he could regain control of himself.

"Oh well sir, thank you. Excuse me first," Mentari said and Zio only replied with a nod.

Mentari rushed out of the room, but when he pulled the door, Zio again greeted him.

"Start!"

The sun turned around and said, "Yes?"

Zio shook his head, "Nothing." Zio's lips smiled faintly.

Feeling strange, Mentari then left Zio's room with so many question marks with Zio's attitude.

Inside his room, Zio exhaled violently. It felt so claustrophobic after speaking so formally to Mentari.

"Gue should be able to. This way sepetinya better in order to maintain Mentari near me. It's as if I can still see him every day" Zio murmured.
