Visits to the laboratory

“Mr Alza!” Rumina cried out loudest, as Alza stood in the doorway that Rey had opened. The door is almost always closed and it is the most closed space among the other parts.

As Alza exited his private room and walked towards the company's Laboratory, many pairs of eyes looked in astonishment. However, there were also among them who were like seeing a top artist enter their concert arena.

Both Ryco and Mark turned to Rumina and Alza in turn.

 The girl immediately took off her glasses, practice vest and took part to greet Alza. He stood next to Mark and Ryco, only the hair covering still on his head.

Mark and Ryco invite Aza to sit on the sofa that was before. The two elderly men did not not not not know the company leader, but they just did not have interests. In fact, the two were actually good friends with his father.

“Please sit down, Sir!” mark said as he stood up and reached out to Alza they shook hands, as did Ryco and Rumina.

Alza leaned against the sofa originally occupied by Mark and Ryco, while crossing her legs. There was only one sofa there. Each person pulls his chair to sit up and makes a circular position, as well as Rey being among them.

 “Don't be too shy, Uncle!” said Alza while glancing at Rumina.

Before long the coffee order came, they had five people but there were only four coffee cups. The waiter receives a message from Rey and sends their coffee directly to the Laboratory.

“What are you doing here? This is not a commonly visited place as there has never been a problem here!” mark opened the conversation.

“I know! But Uncle Ryco wants to retire.”

“Are you kidding? It was a long time ago!” ryco said while chuckling.

“You're acting like you won't see me again! I'm just retiring instead of going to the funeral!” ryco said again.

“I just don't want to regret!” sahut Alza sipping coffee.

“What does it mean?”

“Don't till I never see you here!”

“Do not pretend to care, what is it?” asked Ryco curious, he as an old man felt something strange, especially intermittently Alza dropped a look at Rumina.

“Nothing!” again he glanced at Rumina, the girl never let go of her smile. Inwardly he wanted to ask the earnestness of the message he sent this morning and see firsthand how he reacted.

Rumina looks so happy because her biggest dream came true. Can interact directly with Alza during his work visit. Mark and Riko know that they are also happy for colleagues who can realize their dreams.

Ryco glanced at Rumina and patted her shoulder while saying, “I tipped her, don't give the boss who can't wait to take care of her!”

“Ck! I don't need to be taken care of, Sir!” lirih Rumina's.

He lowered his head and the reddened face instantly lost his smile. He was a little sad about his separation from Ryco. Working for three years with him was not a short time. That man taught her a lot.

Rumina turned to Ryco after managing to master the emotions.

“Do you not know who your replacement will be, Sir?” rumina.

Ryco shook his head and replied, “Of course not yet .. It depends HRD and Mr Alta!”

“Then, how usually?” ask Rumina.

“Usually will be retrieved from head office!” this time Mark spoke.

Rumina nodded her head.

“Rumi, be careful working here if I go, don't spend the materials because you spilled!”

Rumina furrowed her brows as she remembered, during the three years of working there, she had only spilled the ingredients three times. First when he was clumsy first time working, second when he had stomach pain due to menstruation and the third was when his phone rang because Alza called him.

“Alright, I think enough!” alza said while standing up.

“Master, let's have lunch with us, I promise to treat Rumi today because she has often brought breakfast. Comeon! Consider this a farewell,” Ryco said.

Alza turned to the old man, and nodded. To join her, make Rumina smile happily. Who would have thought that he would get as much luck as he did now. He was rescued from danger last night, able to interact in the office and had a chance to have lunch together.

He hoped that this was not a dream, but a good thing from God for him.

The small group went to a nearby restaurant from the office, after lunch break time arrived. Rumina has finished her work. He did the task faster and better because Alza noticed him. All at the request of Ryco and Mark, as an additional activity for the leader. However, with his approval also willing to see Rumina work, while waiting for lunch time to arrive.

They had lunch with a luxurious menu, a chance for Ryco to give good memories to all friends as well as Alza and Rey. He ordered all the food willingly.

Rumina sits between Ryco and Alza. They are enjoying the food they choose according to taste.

Rumina smiled widely, nodding her expression very innocently. He sipped mineral water before speaking.

“Yes I know, thank you!” said.

“I purposely did this for you! Are you happy?”

Rumina nodded.

“Terina love, sir, you are very understanding, may you live a long and blessed life!”

“Aamiin!”

Of course, no one knows what happened last night, between Home and Alza, except Rey. In fact, no one knew that Rumina had come to the office with a sizable suitcase.

Alza turned to Rumina and Ryco, and said, “What are you talking about?”

“He thanks me!” ryco replied.

Alza glanced at Rumina at a glance. He finished eating and wiped his mouth with a tissue.

“Surely you also want to thank me!” said.

Rumina turned her head, according to him the honorable man was shameless, but in any case, he had to respect her.

“Sure, Sir! It's an honor for me to have lunch at one table with you! Thank you for accepting Mr Ryco's invitation!”

“Hmm.”

After lunch was over, everyone returned to their rooms. Except Rumina who asked for permission briefly did not go to the office, to take a photo together with Alza. Ryco lets her and Rey take their picture.

“Please stay in my apartment!” alza said after he finished taking pictures, his face did not show a smile at all.

“Sorry, Sir! I can't continue to receive your kindness. I promise I will pay all the money you have given me on sa—“

“No need!”

Rumina's words were interrupted by Alza's. The man then lifted one corner of his lips upwards. What a faint smile.

“Don't tell me you're going to install it!” Alza said as she stood up and stepped quietly outside the restaurant.

Rumina. He did not expect that Alza would know what he was going to say. He really intends to pay all the money last night by repaying it.

Rey and Rumina went along too, then chatted together behind Alza. They went to the restaurant on foot.

“So where do you want to stay?” rey asked, putting both hands in her pants pocket.

“I've brought all my clothes from Master's apartment and I'll contract a house around here!”

“You've got it?”

Rumina hesitated. He left a suitcase at the building guard post before entering the office. He lied, but he had no place to live.

“Good then!” said Rey flat.

“Is it true that you do not want to be paid in installments? Where can I get that much money?”

“Are you crazy? Until when will you finish the trial? That kind of money can't be paid with your salary for a year!”

“But it is not possible that people will give that much money away for free!”

“Rumi! You better think of a proper way to make up for it! You won't be able to pay in installments! You know what I mean, right?”

“I know he's a married man, what should be his mistress?”

“Can you, why didn't you tell her!”

After saying so, Rey rushed to accompany her big boss. What he wanted to tell Rumina was already said. She only hoped that Rumina would understand and accept her crazy advice to become Alza's mistress.

The two men disappeared in the distance as Rumina did not continue her steps and simply stared at Alza's departure in silence.
