Alex squeezed his hair with a huff. His eyes closed and Denis's shadow flashed filled his mind. He's really frustrated. Ever since that night, when he was drunk, he seemed to have been possessed by something that made him hate himself.
What he had done that night, he could remember well. Yeah, he's aware of what he's doing. It was just that he could not control himself back then. He couldn't help but feel his burning desire when he touched Denis. He could feel how sweet those lips were. So soft and pure. Her cheeks are so smooth. Alex remembers the moment he touched that cheek. Alex really can't deny that he likes that taste so much.
Alex banged his forehead on the table. Want to throw away everything in his head. So disgusting! So horrible! What would everyone say if anyone knew that Alex, a successful young entrepreneur, had a perversion of sexual orientation! He touched a man! Does he really like men??
Wanna put this face where! Argh!
And behold! Because of his behavior that night, now Denis left. Denis, the man who saved his life many times, the man who was next to him when he needed help. Now he knows where he is.
Alex can understand if Denis has chosen to leave. Certainly not because of a small quarrel with him, but definitely because he also felt disgusted with Alex. For a normal human being, it's only natural that Denis would leave now
It was a disaster for him. Is this really her true self?
Alex recalled, when was the last time he had a crush on a woman? It seemed that he never liked a woman, even in his old school days, when some girls started looking for her attention.
The girl close to him was only Viola. It was also because he wanted to avoid chasing other girls. She never wanted Viola to be her lover. At that time, the main priority was learning and learning. After work, he busied himself with work. That's why his father trusted him so much and relied on him only in work rather than Reno. Alex is very serious at work. He never spends time on unimportant things. And he thinks spending time with women is not important.
Can it be described as abnormal?
Alex threw his back against the chair. Close his eyes and stomp his head slightly hard. Exhales violently and then grabs the phone on the table.
"Faisal, where are you?"
He listened for a moment to the answer from the other end.
"I'll wait in the study."
Without waiting for an answer from his assistant, Alex threw the phone into its place.
He got up from his great chair and walked towards the glass window.
Tidying her hair that looked disheveled through the reflection on the glass, she then stood there while staring at the backyard of her house. There is a gazebo that Denis often uses alone down there. He loved to sit there and feed the koi fish in the pool next to the gazebo.
Alex hit his forehead a few times. Satisfying Denis' face that always looms in his memory
A knock on the door followed by an open door. Appearing Faisal from behind. He went in and closed the door behind him.
Alex put both hands in his pants pocket. He did not move from where he stood.
Faisal walked up to him while looking at Alex questioningly.
"You called me? Is there a problem, sir?"
He asked after standing in front of Alex. They are still managing some documents related to the transfer of the name of the owner of the company that was originally Arga Dinata became on behalf of Alex. So do some documents on behalf of Reno. Everything is being taken care of with their lawyers.
Alex took a deep breath before answering Faisal's question.
"Prepare for my engagement as soon as possible."
"Pe..engagement?" Faisal surprised. His eyes were wide open. That was far from his estimate.
"Not to glare like that." Alex glanced sharply at the man who was even dumbfounded in front of him.
"Whatchu mean? Of course with Viola. Who do you think I'm getting engaged to?" Alex's voice was high. This assistant really pissed him off. His mind is so fucked right now. I even get silly questions like that. Alex's eyes dodged at the question from his assistant.
'Maybe you're thinking of getting engaged to Denis.' Shouted Faisal in his heart. But his mouth shut tight. His slightly pale face got a snatch from Alex. This was her first clash during her work with the man. Alex is famous for being very polite to all his employees. He was always polite and respectful to everyone. Never differentiate the degree of a person. Even to the OB and the security guard, he was very polite.
But these few days, his superior had turned temperamental. Always cold and sour. Even the day Denis didn't come home, Alex had a rampage in his room. All the messy stuff. No one knows what the problem is. But at that time there were some people who suspected that maybe Alex had quarreled with Denis. Because when Denis left the house and didn't come back for two days. When he came back, he just took his personal belongings and then left the house and did not return.
Of course, that further reinforces the rumors that there is a special relationship between Alex and Denis. It was already an open secret, which ironically, was simply unknown to the object of the rumor itself.
"Why silence? You mind if I get engaged to Viola?" Very sharp and piercing question.
"Ti.no. I mean, where might I object, sir. Hehe.." Faisal scratched the end of his brows clumsily. Surprised by Alex's drastic change in attitude. Very sarcastic and very sensitive. He should be more careful in speaking from this moment on.
Alex grunts violently.
"So you know what you have to do?"
"Yes, sir. What date do you want to make your engagement?" Faisal mendehem small to eliminate his surprise.
"As far as you."
'What? Whatever me? Who wants a fiancee?' Faisal again scratched the tip of his eyebrow which was actually not itchy at all. His brain thought quickly to digest the intent of Alex's speech.
"Bb.good. I'll see your schedule. When you have free time, that's when your engagement will take place." Faisal hoped that his words would be in accordance with what his superior meant. And he can breathe a sigh of relief when he gets a nod from Alex.
"There are no outsiders. Just the nuclear family." Alex's voice weakened at the end of his sentence. "Even now I don't have a family." He said slowly, sounding so sad.
Faisal swallowed his saliva. He could feel the sadness Alex was now feeling.
"Don't forget, you should also look for an engagement ring."
Alex took his foot to his desk. Sitting back in his chair and checking some documents piled up on his desk.
"You don't want to pick your own ring, sir?" Faisal asked very carefully, afraid that he would make his boss go back up in blood.
Alex shook his head without looking.
"I'm busy. There's no time. You ask Viola which ring he likes." Flat talk.
"Good."
Faisal answered briefly, although in his heart there was a series of questions he wanted to raise. But let. He did not want to get a second clash from his superior.
But when he saw Alex looking at him intensely, Faisal was a bit of a waver. 'Why is Mr Alex looking at me with such a look? Is he interested in me?' Oops!
"Is there anything else, sir?" Ask later. Alex seemed hesitant to say anything to Faisal.
"I. I haven't told Viola that I'm going to propose to him."
