Laura went to his office in a hurry like a man being chased by a bunch of delinquents, he was terrified, because this was the first time in five years of work he was late.

Especially today, the first time the company held a joint meeting of all divisions and led by the owner of a direct Hitz company that has never been known to exist and name even on social media.

With a rash, and tired, breath that was shaken, as well as his face that was pale from thirst under the scorching sun Laura ran with all her might.

Arriving at the company, he went straight to the meeting room where everyone had gathered there, the girl opened the door of the meeting room, making everyone who was sitting turn to look at the girl who opened the door, she was Laura. Pairs of eyes stared intently.

"Would you just stand there or sit down and take a meeting?"

Said a man sitting in his great chair.

Laura knew the voice well, but with great politeness she replied.

"Please forgive me, sir."

Laura lowered her head and ran towards the empty seat located in the very back row. The girl was surprised to remember all this time her boss turned out to be Zafran.

"Fast study, this morning at home you accuse me of being as good as your stomach now you call me master."

The man murmured to himself while smiling annoyedly.

"Is there anything Sir, my explanation and proposal wrong?"

Asked the manager who was explaining in front of the big monitor, because he briefly heard his boss talking.

"Tell the girl who was late, move to sit on the side."

The man's orders again.

"Huh?! Good Lord Zafran."

With a bit of confusion the manager spoke out loudly in front of all the employees, and told Laura to move to sit next to Zafran. They make everyone whisper to each other.

"Continue the meeting, if anyone wants to gossip please get out of this room and this company."

Zafran said firmly.

The manager again explained his proposal in front of the big monitor, while Zafran did not take his eyes off Laura in the least, making the girl a little uncomfortable and glaring at Zafran so as not to look at him like that.

"What breakfast were you having this morning?"

Ask Laura Zafran.

Hearing their superiors actually discuss breakfast makes everyone look at the tail of their eyes.

"I can't afford to."

Whisper Laura and still focus on writing without looking at Zafran.

"I told the waiter you should have breakfast before you left for work, didn't they tell you that?"

"I don't want breakfast, I don't have time and I'm late for the office."

Laura continued to whisper.

"Is this job that important to skipping breakfast? Then why are you talking in whispers?"

Zafran was getting upset.

Laura breathed slowly.

"Laura are you listening to me?"

"Yes, I heard Mr. Zafran."

Laura replied in a furious whisper, but the gaze did not even look at Zafran, he just glanced at the ketus.

Laura's attitude made Zafran upset, he moved closer his body talking into the girl's ears.

"Why don't you have breakfast?"

Zafran's voice in Laura's ear made the girl startled, with a reflex she let out a little scream.

"ZAFRAN!!!"

Instantly the room became silent, all eyes were on Laura how brave her girl was to shout even calling the name of the owner of the Hitz company.

"You may return to work in your respective divisions."

Zafran Command.

As Laura packed her books, Zafran held the girl's hand.

"Where are you going, we're not done yet."

The man took Laura out of the room, and walked a little faster, making Laura lose her footstep.

Laura silently watched Zafran from behind, in her heart, the man she once loved 10 years ago became more charismatic, in an expensive suit, its height of approximately 196cm with an ideal body and muscular, clean white skin certainly makes it more sexy in the eyes of women.

The man looked at Laura who was eating her food with a slightly irritated expression.

Laura ate and devoured all the food that was in front of her, because ten minutes ago Zafran by using his authority forced him to eat breakfast, if he refused then Zafran would fire him.

"You're getting pretty Laura."

"Thank you."

Answer Laura origin.

"Don't make it awkward, I'm really sincere in saying that you're getting prettier."

Zafran said annoyed.

"You know, you're very pretty and always pretty, but after 10 years you've gotten more beautiful, I'm really upset to see you dating that jerk guy."

"Can you not call him that, he has a name."

Said Laura wiping her mouth and drinking orange juice.

Zafran threw his expensive phone on the table, making Laura surprised by the sound of the phone lying rough, the girl then furrowed her brows in an incomprehensible sign.

"Read, you'll understand."

Laura read the already open article on Zafran's expensive phone to the surprise of the girl closing her mouth not believing the news.

"Gosh, is this true? 18 Women are victims, 3 of them are underage girls?!! Really jerk!!!"

"That jerk, aahh... My point is Erick's been in jail, which is the reward he's got to receive for getting you drunk and having a plan to make you his next victim"

"Have you reported it?"

Ask Laura.

"It wasn't me, but my people took care of it."

Zafran.

"I thought I misunderstood you ..."

Laura's sentence was weak.

"I know, don't talk about this anymore, it pisses me off and wants to crush all of his joints."

"How are your parents doing now?"

Zafran asked awkwardly.

"Either perhaps they were taking care of the inn or were gardening in the back

lodging, it's been 8 years since we haven't given each other any news."

Laura plays the straw and twists her around in the glass.

"Laura... Do you know how I feel after our separation?"

Zafran said suddenly.

"I had no choice Zafran, my parents locked me up, I couldn't do anything."

"Our age was 19 years. At that age we have rights over ourselves. You have Laura's choice, but you don't dare to take a little more courageous."

Zafran.

"No Zafran, you don't know my situation back then!!!"

Laura yelled out to make some pantry employees curious and steal a glance, but their gaze was fiercely slashed by Zafran's sharp gaze.

For a few minutes they were silent, silent, the words reverberating in their minds.

"At that time we were still a labile child and we were still thinking about each other's egos, not thinking about the impact of our actions."

Laura's sentence broke the silence, she looked for excuses, and wanted to quickly end her debate with Zafran.

"It's really irrelevant that when you're 19 you call Laura's labile child, when we both know what we want and we love Laura, we have a commitment to live together, we've talked seriously about what impact we'll get from the elopement decision."

Zafran's sentence made Laura again feel uneasiness that clumped in her stomach, felt very uncomfortable, even she shivered in frustration with all the sentences Zafran continued to corner her, Zafran was completely blinded by his own views and thoughts without seeing how Laura struggled as well.

"You need to know also Zafran, I've tried as hard as possible to maintain our relationship, I've been so trying that you can't even imagine how I was doing at that time, even I was very depressed, he said, all the ways I've done."

Not only did Zafran feel the impact of the tragic breakup, Laura also fought desperately to stay up from the slump.
