The Rival Beside Me
Redirections

Rise up parking his sport bike. It was seen Andra was standing waiting at the door with a cynical smile.

" Are you really eating my words?"

Rise up just looking at Andra with hate.

Andra laughs.

" You're really back."

" It's none of your business. Move over!" Rise straight into the house without permission.

He ignored Andra and went straight to his room. Then grab a towel and enter the bathroom. When he finished, he seemed to take a break. But his eyes are not closed. He looked at his cellphone. Hope there's a ringing call from Lala. But hope seems to be in vain. A knock on his door made him move out of his bed.

" In."

His father looked at him with a question mark.

" What are you doing. Why do you want to break off the engagement?"

" I don't love him. I remember all of you."

" But, this is all for your own good."

" For my good or for the good of our family?"

" What do you mean?"

" I've grown up Dad. I already know what's good for me. So please leave me alone. Or I'll come out."

" You! Ok. Dad's going out. But don't expect Dad to bless you with that woman."

Rise shut the door of her room and slammed herself on the bed. Dunked his face on the surface of the pillow.

I have to admit it! And I have to finish this. And I don't want to marry a woman I don't love.

Rise up thinking for a moment. Five minutes later, he got out of bed. And stepped out of the room into her grandmother's room.

...***...

Lala breathed a long breath. He cannot think clearly for the moment. He knew the Rise. But the fact is that Rise now is someone else, not his rival friend. Nor was he someone who had ever made him wish for more.

Morning sunlight broke through the ventilation of his bedroom window. Lala flinched, then immediately grabbed the towel and entered the bathroom. When finished, then his eyes were fixed on the clockwork of the wall. Eight o'clock is ten minutes.

Lala hurriedly took the keys to her vehicle and headed for the office.

As soon as she reached the office, Lala immediately rushed into her room and busied herself with her work. Suddenly I heard a knock on the door of his office.

" Please come in." Lala.

The door opened and the door appeared Rise up. Lala's attention was immediately drawn to the man who stepped into her room at this moment.

Because of his shock, Lala's heart felt like it was going to be dislodged.

" You? What's the need?"

" I'm replacing Andra here."

" What do you mean?"

" I mean, I'm taking over the leadership here. Grandma's allowed it."

" Then your brother?"

" My brother? Wh why? Do you miss him?"

Lala smiled wryly.

" That's not what I meant."

" Of course my brother is happy with his freedom. He most disliked taking care of the affairs of a company like this. So where's the report this month. I want to analyze it." Pinta Bangkit made Lala immediately rushed to look for her monthly report.

" This is Sir." Lala immediately handed me a document.

" okay. Thanks you very much. And it doesn't have to be formal like that. I've remembered everything La." Rise Speech. After saying so, Bangkit stepped out of Lala's room.

Lala was really shocked. His eyes filled with questions. There was an uncomfortable feeling in Lala's heart. Lala was pensive.
