The Love of Mr and Young Miss
Matchmaking

1 week passed.

Carissa has adapted well to her new position. Carissa is very meticulous when examining the materials to be used for the production of clothing, bags and shoes. Carissa is also very careful when examining products before being marketed, he does not want the slightest defect of product.

Some employees who saw how Carissa worked were very grateful. They are happy because then there will be no consumers who complain about the product riject.

The huft!

Carissa breathed heavily.

"It turns out this work is tiring." murmured Carissa who massaged her temple slowly. His eyes fixed on the pile of messy bags filled the large room he was currently visiting.

There are approximately 200 bags that do not meet the quality standards of the product. There are unkempt stitches, stuck zippers, non-functioning bag buttons and others.

"What about this riject bag?" ask Carissa to a woman named Linda.

"Usually this product will be sold in some malls at a massive discount at the end of the year, ma'am" Linda explained.

"When the damage is not severe, just a little fixed will certainly not lower the selling price of this bag" said Carissa who was looking at some riject bags that have been collected in a large iron basket.

"That's the company's decision, ma'am. Products that do not pass quality control will be sold to several malls that already have cooperation agreements with MF Group." explained Linda again.

14.00

Carissa headed to her room, she wanted to lay down her body for a while. Carissa felt very tired because all day she was pacing to do a product inspection. Unlike the previous days when she became an office girl.

Carissa sat in her work chair, she hit her calf slowly which felt sore. Carissa stretched her stiff body.

The crane!

The crane!

The ringing of the phone at the work desk annoyed Carissa who was closing her eyes to relieve her fatigue.

"Rissa, into my room now."

Carissa snorted in annoyed breath at the sound she recognized so much, just as she wanted to rest there was already another job.

"Well, sir." answered Carissa and hung up.

Carissa rushed towards the 10th floor which was none other than Devian's workspace.

Tok Tok!

"Get in." said Devian as Carissa knocked on her study door.

"What's the need, sir?" ask Carissa.

"Please make me peppermint tea." Devian pinta.

Carissa nodded then rushed towards the pantry room.

5 minutes later, Carissa brought a cup of peppermint tea and handed it to Devian.

"It's my drink." said Carissa.

"Thank you. Be sitting. Have you had lunch?" asked Devian who saw the lethargic expression on Carissa's face.

"Not yet, sir." replied Carissa who only realized she had missed her lunch hour.

"It seems like your new job is very troublesome" said Devian, who took a parcel from the table and opened it.

"It's eating to prop up the stomach" said Devian, who offered Carissa a piece of croissant.

"No need, sir. I'll eat after work." refused Carissa.

"Remember your hull. Later if relapses here, I am also the one who bothered. "said Devian again.

"Hmm. okay" said Carissa and took a piece of croissant from Devian's hand.

"Nob."

Carissa ate it so greedily, she did not realize there was a piece of bread attached to the top of her lips.

Devian took a tissue and gently wiped Carissa's lips.

The deg!

Carissa was speechless feeling the softness of Devian's hand touching her lips. Carissa's eyes caught Devian's gentle gaze, she was fascinated with Devian's pitch-black eyeballs.

"sorry. There was bread left" said Devian, opening his eyes at the handsome man in front of him.

"I-yes sir." replied Carissa nervously and lowered her face a sign that she was embarrassed.

Devian had already seen the red hue on the bashful woman's cheeks before him. Devian feels funny with Carissa being misbehaved. Devian chuckled softly.

"You nervous?" ask Devian to Carissa.

Carissa who still lowered her face only gave a small nod.

Pfft!

Devian laughed a little.

"Don't be mated, sir." protested Carissa who heard Devian's little laugh.

"You're funny. Let alone that cheek, already like a boiled crab." ledek Devian.

Pluck up!

Carissa threw the pen that happened to be on the table at Devian's body.

Devian halted his laughter, then he looked at Carissa.

"Sorry, sir." said Carissa immediately stood up to Devian, but when she wanted to take the pen under Devian's feet accidentally, Carissa's feet slipped and made him fall into Devian's lap.

The Dag Dig.

Their faces meet each other. Both Devian's hands wrapped around Carissa's slender waist. Their hearts seem to be racing against each other. Strange murmurs appeared in the hearts of the two people who were staring at each other with increasing distance eroded.

"What feeling is this?" inner Devian who realized that something strange had appeared in her heart.

"How's this? My heart feels like it's going to be dislodged." Carissa's mind is getting harder and harder to control the strange reaction on her body.

"Sir, I want to go down" said Carissa who immediately made Devian cut off eye contact with the beautiful woman on her lap.

"Ah, sorry." replied Devian immediately released her hand from Carissa's waist.

"Alhamdulillah." said Carissa after finishing her meal and then sipped water.

"Carissa darling.."

I heard a voice that Carissa missed. He ran straight to the source of the sound.

"Mama Papa!" carissa exclaimed when she saw two of her favorite people were putting suitcases. Carissa hugged them in turn.

"Carissa kangen." whining spoiled Carissa.

"Haish. Papa's grown daughter is spoiled." led by Papa Cakra while stroking his daughter's head.

"Why is Papa Mama so long?" carissa protested while inviting her parents to sit in the living room soffa.

"Your mom said she was leaving for 1 week. You usually never protest like this. What's the problem?" mama Allisa asked her beautiful daughter.

A moment Carissa sighed then shook her head.

"What about your job?" ask Papa Cakra.

"Yes, Pa. It was exhausting." said Carissa.

Mom and Dad smiled at Carissa.

"What do you work on?" mama Allisa asked curiously.

"Initially it was OG, Ma." replied Carissa casually.

Mama and Papa turned their heads with the mouth of the money wide open. They didn't hear wrong, did they?

"OGS? Office girl?" tanya Papa Cakra made sure.

Carissa nodded then smiled faintly.

"You're! It's better you take care of Papa's business with Mama. No need to bother to be an OG in the company of people" said Mama Allissa while stroking Carissa's back gently.

"What the hell do you want, honey?" tanya Papa Cakra stared gently at the beautiful face of the princess only wayang.

"Rissa just wants to make it hard to make her own money, Pa. Rissa also wanted to have a story of Rissa's own struggle. Papa same Mama used to fight from zero, right? So Rissa does not want to just take advantage of the success of her parents. Let Rissa can appreciate Papa's efforts with Mama." said Carissa who immediately got a hug from Mama Allisa and Papa Cakra's soft caress in Carissa's head.

"Papa's daughter is an adult" said Papa Cakra.

"Yes Rissa wants a break, Ma Pa. Rissa is tired tomorrow morning to be ready for work again" said Carissa who felt her eyes were heavy.

"alright. Sleep well, dear." said Mama Allisa then kissed Carissa's forehead as well as Papa Cakra.

"Mama's dad also took a break. Don't be tired, just get old." led by Carissa and passed to her room on the second floor. Papa and Mama just laughed at her daughter's teasing.

"Pa, rest in the room yuk." asked Mama Allisa who replied nod Papa Cakra.

The two middle-aged men immediately cleaned themselves up and went to bed.

"Ma, the power is time" Papa Cakra said.

"What, Pa?" ask Mama Allisa.

"The problem of the match between Carissa and Papa's little best friend's child" replied Papa Cakra.

Mama Allisa who already knew the direction of the conversation sighed for a while.

"Is Papa serious about realizing that matchmaking?" ask Mama Allisa make sure.

"Yes, Ma. Inevitably it must be realized." replied Papa Cakra firmly.

"What if Rissa refuses?"

"There's still time before Rissa turns 25. If he can find his own soul mate then that matchmaking can be annulled."

"After all, Papa's best friend's son is handsome and well-established" replied Papa Cakra.

Mama Allisa breathed a heavy sigh.

"Whatever Papa. But if Rissa refuses, then Mama will support Rissa's decision. And Papa has no right to make Rissa." said Mama Allisa firmly.

Papa Cakra only sighed at the words of his wife who seemed like a threat.

25 Years ago before Cakra became the man he is today, he was a fruit seller in a shophouse. Cakra is a small trader who prioritizes the quality of his fruit. That then makes the fruit that he sells subscriptions to high-class people.

One day, a young businessman came to his house. The man watched over every move of Cakra's movements. From the quality of the fruit sold, the way of service is even the way Cakra takes care of unsold fruit.
