STUCK WITH MY - EX
Obstructed

According to Ares' wishes, Cantika tried to be patient by going up to the penthouse with a private elevator. Even the personal assistant had been waiting for his arrival and delivered him until Cantika the elevator door opened again.

"Please."

"Eung, where's Mr Ares?"

"So it was in his room. Please," said his assistant Ares as if telling Cantika to come out immediately. Cantika snorted dejectedly, she finally stepped out from inside the elevator then looked around. Very luxurious residence, Cantika was amazed until finally her gaze was fixed on the photo of Ares who was graduating. He looked very handsome, making Cantika smile with him.

What's that guy been doing all this time? Why isn't he there to take graduation pictures? Why is there no news? Why there is only solitude for him when he sees Ares who looks happy wearing a toga.

"I know I'm handsome at all times. Please blink, I'm afraid your eyes hurt."

Cantika took a deep breath and turned her eyes to the man who had just walked out of her room. "Sir, aren't you feeling well?"

"Yes, but looking at you I feel as healed right now."

"What should I do for you?" Cantika directly changed the subject, she needs to get out of here immediately.

"What do you have to do for me? Be my life partner."

"Sorry, Sir. I had to hurry back to the office. There's a lot of work that didn't go according to plan today because you were sick. So, what should I do?"

Ares cleared his throat getting a sharp glare from Cantika. "Okay, you're meeting with the head of this company, listen to what they say and take notes on the bad stuff. Tell them too that it's my decision to say five days from now."

"Okay, I'll learn it. Then excuse me, is there anything else I should do?"

"Yes, so my life partner."

"I'm sorry, I hope you get well soon" Cantika said then stepped away from there.

Ares smiles at Cantika's departure, but as soon as she disappears from the elevator doors, Ares immediately shouts, "Waaaaaaa!" Then he fell silent and muttered, "My ex is so beautiful. Eh ex? But it hasn't broken up, has it?"

"Please. I only have a few months to get him back. Please."

"You don't have to make a note of him if you're honest with him. Tell him you're in love with him, and tell him about your departure."

"But it's my disgrace" murmured Ares shyly. "When did I tell you about my own disgrace? I'm crazy, I'm ashamed."

"Yes continues? don't let Cantika be the same Galuh later."

"Oh! You want me to fire? Then I can't make you work where?"

Samuel was silent. He dared to say another word if Ares was like that. So all he could do was shake his head then nod while saying, "I'll do it, Master."

Ares then stepped towards the balcony after wagging his hair.

Late afternoon, sunset. But Ares' focus is more on the figure below who is looking for the existence of a taxi. The person she adores and misses so much. If only he could embrace the figure.

"Master?" Call Samuel from behind.

"Don't bother me, I'm trying to get my heart's lover again."

"You're having the flu, it's not good to be outside."

"Yuk!" Ares instantly noticed it and looked resentfully at Samuel for reminding him of this. "This is because of you, Assistant!"

"Ma-I'm sorry, sir."

"You remind me I have the flu! Uhuk! Uhuk!" Then he stepped away from there and went back inside while hugging himself. "Hurry to get a doctor, I can't wait to be alone with my own secretary."
