The Elbow of Love Willing Ring
006 - Conditional

Viona took a breath and exhaled as hard as she could. He had trained in front of the mirror, training his smile so as not to look clumsy in front of Mas Alan. The rejection he experienced clearly left a sense of discomfort if they later met again. It is this discomfort that must be controlled. Rejected dream man has become a natural thing, anyone must have experienced rejection. That's how Viona bounces herself, a spell of encouragement.

Mas Gede, Viona's boss who just came out of her study, approached Viona who had returned from the toilet.

Mas Gede is the boss of Viona who looks eccentric. His fashion taste is unique and eccentric for men's size. Understandably, Mas Gede is a designer who turns into an entrepreneur and opens a course institution, ranging from sewing courses to English courses.

Gerald Demian's full name immediately glared as he opened the large sunglasses with a bright red frame.

"Vio, do you want to go to an interview? Tumben is so neat!"

Mas Gede scanned Viona's appearance from head to toe. Viona even wears a black long span skirt and three centimeter heels.

"Mas Gede, is there a company that opens a seven-night interview schedule?" Viona asked back.

"So far, where are you going with a job seeker like that?" ask Mas Gede.

Viona did not reply, it made Mas Gede raise his glasses up to the head and make it as a bando.

"I'm really going to get mad, no, I'm going to be really mad if you go to an interview for another job! I know, I can't give you a high salary because my business isn't a big business and it's still in the pioneering stage! But I don't have any permanent employees other than you, Vio! You must understand that, right?!"

Mas Gede wiggled his hands, a bright red mesh-modeled shirt swayed along with his leopard-patterned leg movements.

"Mas Gede, I didn't go to a job interview. I'm going to go on, "soon Viona.

"Hey? Why did you go out with the appearance of people going to interview?" tanya Mas Gede full of search.

Viona harrumphed, she could not possibly say that she had no other formal attire to go to the wedding reception at the five-star hotel. She could not possibly wear a dress because she had never had a single dress in her life.

"Mas Gede, I can't possibly wear a T-shirt and jeans to go to a wedding reception right?" Viona grinned bitterly.

"Oh, Vio! You're this yeah, you don't know fashion at all? Or how is it?"

Not finished Mas Gede commented at length, look Mas Alan who approached them.

"Ger," call me Alan.

"Oh, hi, Alan!" Mas Gede said hello.

"Tumben came today? Isn't it your schedule now?" ask Mas Gede.

By reflex, Viona lowered her head, not daring to make eye contact with Mas Alan. Even though tonight the man looks more handsome in a white shirt coated in a black suit that makes the man's back look perfectly strapping.

"Can we talk for a second?" ask Alan.

"Speak what? Just say it" replied Mas Gede.

Viona pretends to be busy working in front of her computer.

"Ger, I'm asking you for the time being that I apply for a leave of absence" said Mas Alan.

"What's? You want a vacation?" Mas Gede. "Why? Why?"

Viona was flabbergasted, she who had been acting busy straightened her gaze towards Mas Alan.

"Personal business," Mas Alan replied calmly.

"Personal business? Oh No, Alan!" keluh Gede's.

"Ger, don't we agree that I'm willing to help you just to fill my free time?" said Mas Alan.

"Oh, I see, I see, sorry, dude!" sahut Mas Gede felt guilty.

"Thank you for understanding" said Mas Alan.

"How long are you going to be on leave?" ask Mas Gede.

"Well, for sure when my business is done, I promise I'll come back" Alan replied briefly.

"Alright, thank you and I'm waiting for you to come back" Mas Gede patted Mas Alan on the shoulder.

"Thank you Ger" said Mas Alan.

Mas Gede returned to his room, while Viona followed Mas Alan who stepped out.

"Mas Alan, wait," Viona tried to stop the man's move.

The man stopped his steps, twisting his body in a slow motion that made Viona's heart pound more crazily. The smell of the man's perfume was disturbing and made Viona feel intoxicated.

"What's up, Miss Vio?" ask Alan.

"Mas Alan, what.what..," Viona tried to talk.

His tongue felt so stiff and dull.

"Is Mas Alan on leave because he feels bad about what I told Mas?" ask Viona.

The man watched Viona.

"Mas, I'm really sorry that Mas was annoyed by the confession of my feelings, but.but there should be no need to avoid me right?"

Viona felt her eyes heat up. He really felt sorry for having expressed feelings to this man until the idol actually avoided.

"Mr Vio, I'm sorry, but the reason I took my leave really has nothing to do with Ms. Vio, so please don't feel guilty like this" said Mas Alan.

Viona felt her chest tightening, rumbling, now turning drastically into shame. Viona wants to drown her head in a nearby ditch or hide herself in a big dumpster.

How humiliating!

"Sorry to Alan!" Viona bowed deeply.

"Alright, then see you again" Mas Alan said goodbye.

"I-Yes, see you later, Mas" said Viona.

Viona could only lament that strapping back away from her sight. Then it disappeared into a luxury car parked across from the shophouse where the course was.

"Vio!"

Hearing the cry from Mas Gede, Viona immediately rushed towards the man's study.

"Vio, how is this? Alan's on leave, then who's his replacement?" ask Mas Gede.

"Hmm, just ask for help from Mas Gede's other friend," replied Viona.

"Well, but yes, a friend who can be asked for help to provide free time voluntarily without any honor, yes just the Alan," complained Mas Gede.

"Hmm, Mas Gede, Mas Alan is his main job what is it? How come he always looks handsome and neat like a young executive so," said Viona.

"Well, I never wondered either, it was Alan's personal business! The important thing is that Alan wants to help, that's enough for me" added Mas Gede.

"Mas Gede, then I say yes, I want to go to the condangan" said Viona.

"What conditions?" seloroh Mas Gede's.

"Mas's condo, I swear! Do I need to take a picture as proof?" ask Viona.

"Yes, who knows except you and God!" Mas Gede put his shoulder down.

Viona harrumphed, not knowing what to do to convince her boss that she was just going to the stage.
