Reaching Hope
Chapter 31 Finding a Contract

"It's okay, I'm here Clara," said Andre to calm Clara who remained sobbing.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Andre." said Clara after realizing she hugged her boss.

"It's okay, hug if you still need a backrest" Andre said gently.

Clara wiped her tears, she tried to calm herself down. OB came with drinks and snacks. Andre gave him a drink to make him calmer.

"Why did you faint in the toilet, Clara?" ask Andre slowly.

"I'm sorry, sir. I am afraid of the dark, especially in closed rooms. My chest felt tight and suddenly my head was dizzy. After that I don't remember anymore." explained Clara, making Andre's forehead frown.

"closed room? Dark? What do you mean, Clara?" tanyanya.

"I went to the toilet when I came out the door was suddenly locked. I was pushing but couldn't open. Suddenly the lights went out. I panicked, sir," said Clara.

"Where it might be like that, all this time the door has never been jammed, let alone the lights until it goes out so. Let me check later. But you're okay?" ask Andre.

"It's okay, just scared, sir" replied Clara.

"I'm back in my room yes, sir," said Clara.

"Have rested here first, your work I have asked Bella to handle it," said Andre.

"But.." said Clara trying to argue.

"It's Clara, rest first" said Andre cut off Clara's speech.

Finally Clara said. He was pensive for a moment, then looked to admire the interior of Andre's room. Andre often steals glances while still struggling with his work. The man looks unfocused.

"Clara, please don't tell Juan about this first. Let me investigate first," he pleaded.

"Yes, I won't tell you, sir," replied Clara.

Clara looked at the man at work. Andre was conscious, but did not dare to look at it. At last he had no power not to see, their eyes ringing. Clara smiled at him, making the man's heart beat fast.

"Why aren't you married?" ask Clara suddenly. He sees Andre as a kind and friendly man, his attitude is not as cold as Juan. There must be many women who want to go with him. I don't know why he still looks alone.

"I'm not ready, Clara. Nothing made my heart shake. Once there, he already belonged to someone else," Andre said with a sorrowful expression.

"Oh, what a pity, sir. But do not get discouraged, keep opening your heart to new people. Because if a soul mate must be found, sooner or later" said Clara wisely.

"Amin" said Andre.

"Are you okay, Clara?" tanyakanya.

"Don't I just say, I'm fine, sir," replied Clara.

"Then you come back, I don't focus on working if you're here. Hahaha," said Andre laughing at himself who could not control himself.

Clara also laughed at hearing it.

"Well, I go yes, sir" said Clara, then passed.

"Why can't you compromise anyway" said Andre, holding his still-beating chest.

"Clara, are you okay? Why did you faint in the toilet anyway?" bella asked when she saw Clara coming back.

"Thank you, brother, for helping me handle my work" replied Clara.

"Yes, equally," said Bella fixedly staring at Clara, waiting for her to tell a story.

"So the time to get out of the toilet the door suddenly could not open, then the lights were also suddenly extinguished. I'm afraid of the dark, let alone the enclosed space. I'm panicking, Brother. I got dizzy and couldn't remember anything else." Clara explained, looking like Bella was really listening.

"Could you do it? There has never been such an incident. It seems like sabotage, maybe people who hate you did it" Bella said, giving a code look at Riska.

"Ah Brother, don't accuse me of that. Not good, brother, maybe it is a system error," replied Clara thinking positively.

"No way, Clara. It must have been the droper who acted." said Bella so sure.

"Already, Brother. Let Mr. Andre investigate, he said he would investigate" Clara said again.

"Tempo the day your files are gone, today you're locked in a toilet. I don't know what's going to happen next, it looks like someone doesn't like you, Clara. This should not be allowed, it should be investigated" said Bella half yelling, he deliberately so that Riska heard it.

"Don't be hard, brother. Yes, later investigated" said Clara felt bad with other employees who were working.

"You're so good, Clara, '" said Bella.

Riska looks out of the room, maybe she is careless to hear Bella's words.

"This is for you. Watch out if you get caught, lose your job" Riska told an OB. Then he waltzed away with a triumphant smile.

"All who oppose a Riska Amelia, feel it" said Riska lirih.

In the apartment, Om Dion and Jhony are very exhausted. They are seen sleeping, Om Dion on the bed and Jhony prefers to sleep on the sofa. They're so good.

"Om wake up, I go home first, Om" said Jhony.

"What time is it, Tian? It was so quiet that I was sleeping." said Om Dion.

"It's almost magrib, I'm tired of wanting to rest again at home. Is it okay to go home now?" ask Jhony.

"It's okay, I understand. Thank you for making me happy. I've transferred to the account I gave you the other day, maybe you need it for your family. Don't forget tomorrow morning here, tomorrow my last day in Indonesia" said Om Dion half-sleep.

"Sama-sama Om, thank you too yes. I go home first" said Jhony, then I step home.

Before returning home he had to check the account of Om Dion at the ATM. How surprised he got enough money from Om Dion. He thinks Om Dion is good, maybe just because he's in that state. Unfortunately the time with the man is only 3 days, if many Jhony plans to help him to repent and rearrange his life. Being a real man.

Clara and Juan were looking for a contract, close to Clara's office. It turns out that looking for a suitable contract is not as easy as imagined. There have been several places they have seen, but none have matched Juan. Yes, Juan is very high. For Clara, no matter what.

"Juan, I think that was good. Even better than the house in January, why did you reject it?" clara tried to protest.

"You don't see around it, a lot of coffee shops, cafes so. There were a lot of guys staring at you. While beside you there is me, what if there is none? They must be bothering you. Let's get some food first, I'm hungry" Juan said, holding his girlfriend.

Clara did not dare to protest, she knew Juan must have given his best for her. He complied when Juan took him out to eat.
