THE WOMAN (END)
•112

I love her, I love her,

I don't want to lose him, though,

so I'll do everything I can to take care of him.

Even in a selfish way...'

After meeting with Erwin in person, I can judge him as a smart and kind young man. Oh of course, that's why Alis can remember her name so well. Which woman can easily forget a good man?

"What is your relationship with Eyebrows?" I muttered while focusing on the employees who were busy working.

Erwin, who was standing next to me, turned his head before finally answering.

"Just know sir" he replied hesitantly.

"We met once when I went to Alis' house. You know if Eyebrows are my girlfriend." I emphasize every sentence I say.

Erwin seemed to nod.

"I hope you can keep your distance from him."

"Let's calm sir. I did not think at all further, my parents in the village were also sickly.so I prioritized my mother" he explained sure

I turned to look at him for quite a while. My guess about him who would refuse to stay away from Eyebrows turned out to be wrong. Erwin is a really nice guy.

"What if you I picked up as a sales manager in one of the company's factories.It happens that we have a branch in your hometown." The offer I felt was enough to make him retreat in order.

Erwin looked up in shock, whether it was a happy expression or even dislike.

"Why sir? are you worried about my whereabouts?" insinuations.

"Ekehm, I just feel sorry for you. if you really care about the condition of your parents instead of better you can be close to them. there are not many employees who I immediately raised to be a manager. especially you're new." I explained.

I stared intently at Erwin's face as if forcing him to agree to my suggestion just now.

"Alright, I'll think about your offer. Thank you very much sir! excuse me!" Erwin dropped out and went back to work.

I breathed a sigh of relief.at least one of my competitors could handle.even though I knew Erwin had no feelings for Eyebrows for now, but who would have thought, if the more days they would even get closer.

The proof, I can be crazy by the woman in just 30 days, even though I can get more girls out there.

This selfishness of mine might be down from papa. Moreover, I am an only child, and whatever I want I have to get.

This afternoon I asked Nita to take my lunch to the study.

Lazy if I have to go out, especially my legs still feel throbbing pain when forced to walk.

"Excuse me sir," a foreign voice sounded from outside after previously knocking on the door.

"Lake in!" my orders,

I saw the girl named Sinta carrying a tray containing lunch that I ordered.

"Where's Nita?" I asked her to help me bring her lunch.

"Bu Nita, there's still work, sir, so I brought it!" Sinta approached the table and placed the tray on the table.The girl even skillfully helped me tidy up the scattered files before I ordered her.

Every now and then she glanced at him with the corner of her eye, I watched him closely.

"How long have you been working?" tanyaku later.

Nita looked up then --pulling the chair and sitting-looked she was a very active girl I felt.

"Working here I've only been a few weeks sir! what's the matter? my performance is not good sir! I'm sorry, -"

I raised my hand to ask him to stop talking.

"Sorry," he later said.

"I mean, how long have you been working in the factory?"

"About the factory? if in the factory it has been almost 2 years, sir, you have also met me several times, right?" it was as if he had gotten himself into the conversation just now.

"Hm, quite a long time.have you heard of any worker whose husband died in an accident." I asked a little doubt.

"Oh, Eyebrow yes sir. know dong sir. he is also my friend. but not too deket sir. why is it? Alis nudu Company huh? understandably sir, she is from a family less able.after all her husband was a heavy drunk." cerocosnya.

I sighed in hearing the girl's chatter. It seems like he and his eyebrows aren't too close.

"He did not demand anything.even he had rejected the compensation given to his family.It was lucky Mr. Ilham could persuade him," I clearly look ironic at him.

"Oh. I think, Eyebrow is suing the company. That's the rumor, anyway. Do you know Alis?" Sinta's face turned probing.

"No, I was just asking you. I want to hear your opinion about the incident."

"Thank God if Gak knew, after all, the type of person who is happy to close himself.when in the past, someone wanted to marry him after her husband died.But Alis refused on the grounds of children, naive really." his cerocos seemed to regret the decision of Eyebrows.

I scrunched my forehead in shock.

"Who wants to marry her? who?!" selorohku.

Sinta looked stunned.

"I do not know sir. maybe people around the village there. his rich father was very surprised?"

I looked at him cynically. Obviously I was shocked. All this time Eyebrows never told me. I was curious who the man in question. really annoying to ask this girl. I regret to invite him to talk.

"I'm hungry. You can go!" I switched our conversation and asked him to leave my room.

With a face that still looked confused, Sinta said goodbye to me.

"If you need something, you can call me" he concluded with a slightly seductive look.

How could Eyebrows have such a friend.it was terrifying!

After lunch, I asked Mr. Muh to pick me up. It seemed like my body was starting to feel weak and exhausted. I promised him I would not worry.

Along the way I Asik sent messages with him.the woman who lately always filled my head with a smile and innocent behavior.

"You have arrived, don't forget to take the medicine. Ask bi Marni for the angetin soup that I sent to the house this morning." he ordered

"Why don't you just deliver the soup directly to my tea?" godaku's.

"I'm busy, man" he answered reasoned.

I sighed deeply.I forgot that Alis was a woman who fought alone to support her son.If she were to accept all my gifts.

But instead of her refusal, it made me want to protect her even more.I even planned to marry her as soon as possible.

Serious with my daydreams, my eyes were startled with an unusual sight as our car stopped at a red light, I saw aunt Ayu and Ivan in one car in the opposite direction to me.

They seemed to be talking seriously.whether it was talking about work or something else.but what I was surprised about was Ayu's sweet attitude towards her.

"It looks like it's Rahayu sir's mother" murmured Mr. Muh.

"Hm, I know. leave it alone" I said as I looked at the two questioningly.

Should I investigate the relationship between the two? But, does it matter? what about Vina? did Ivan also dump Vina? how is the fate of the girl now?

The contents of my head suddenly spread to things that had been buried for a long time.I no longer want to care about their presence.whatever they do behind my back, I should not need to know. because it would be very disturbing to my life later.

PINGING!

"Why not bales mas? is Sandy angry? don't get mad dong mas?!"

I smiled sweetly as I read the incoming message.
