"You empty a glass, don't you feel like peeing?"

Jin Fu hurriedly picked up the calling.

"Hello Qing Qing, you're back?"

The man's voice was full of excitement and there was a jolly smile on his face that He Hua could perceive. The boss was silent, with a not so happy expression. He held the glass of juice to drink, while his eyes peeped and his ears opened to his companion calling.

"I came back two days already," Qing Qing said.

"You did not tell me."

"I thought you were busy and I am so busy too. There are many things to do after returning. I'm just free today."

"Then today, we can meet?"

"Yes, I call you to have lunch together."

"Good. Where?"

"Same restaurant near my office, because I have to meet with a client after lunch."

"Okay."

"Okay, bye. See you."

"See you."

Jin Fu put his phone on the table. His face did not cancel smiling.

"Your girlfriend?" He Hua stated.

"Yes." Jin Fu nodded.

"You look happy just to receive a call from her."

"Do you want me to cry?"

He Hua did not respond. He changed to another question, "Will you go to have lunch with her?"

"Yes." Jin Fu nodded.

"Have money in your pocket?"

"Yes. Money from the last animation still remains."

"You can use my credit card. It is not handsome to let your girlfriend pay. And it loses face if money is not enough."

"It's enough. I usually eat there. I know the price."

"Take my credit card in case your girlfriend wants to eat at a different place or food."

"No need."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I am sure. I know her."

"People can change."

"But I don't think it is Qing Qing."

He Hua stayed quiet after he saw that he couldn't persuade his companion. He perceived Jin Fu was trying to tell him that he knew his girlfriend. Well, he understood that he couldn't meddle in it because it is a personal issue.

"Anyway," He Hua said, "will you come back?"

"Yes, I will come back to work after eating," Jin Fu confirmed.

"Good then."

"Now, we should start work." Jin Fu called, then he and He Hua rose from their chairs at the same time; after that, they went to stay in the office-room into their own spots.

*****

Inside the restaurant was busy like usual.

Jin Fu arrived and looked around to find his girlfriend.

Near the window, Qing Qing was sitting with her eyes on the screen of phone.

The man walked toward his girl with a smiling face. He entered to sit in the seat before her.

Qing Qing rose face and smiled

"How are you?" Jin Fu uttered

"Fine. What about you?" Qing Qing said.

"I'm good too."

A waiter appeared, "What would you like?"

"Er..."

Jin Fu wanted to order, but Qing Qing cut in, "I ordered rice with pork for you already."

"Oh, thank you," Jin Fu claimed.

"What's about drink?" The waiter said.

"Coke," Qing Qing stated.

"I want strawberry juice," Jin Fu vocalized.

"Well, you should take blueberry." Then she turned to the waiter, "One coke and one blueberry juice please.

"Yes," the waiter said and left.

"I want to drink strawberry," Jin Fu claimed.

"You work with electronic devices a lot. Blueberry is good for you. It strengthens your immune system," Qing Qing told.

"Even though I like strawberry."

"What you like does not always mean good."

Hearing this, Jin Fu became silent.

Qing Qing showed a grin then turned to look at her phone.

Meeting this time, the young man felt a little bit strange with the actions of his girlfriend. He felt her words and behavior were different from before she went to the US.

'Perhaps we part for long.' Jin Fu thought. He believed that she was still his Qing Qing.

'Because she cares about me too much, that's why she tries to choose anything best for me.' The man thought.

The food arrived. And Qing Qing moves the phone to the side for food to be placed before her.

The two began eating.

Even while eating, Qing Qing still looked at her phone.

Jin Fu saw that, so he asked, "What do you watch? You look so deep into it."

"My colleague's channel," Qing Qing answered without rising her face. "He makes videos about his daily life. I want to support him, so I become his fan."

"Oh..."

The man continued eating but his eyes usually focused on his girlfriend. He saw she did not take her eyes off the screen, and her lips always smiled.

Seeing that, Jin Fu remembered the lunches in the past between them two. It was not like this. During lunch, Qing Qing had paid attention to him and they had chatted. Now, it felt like he was eating alone.

The young guy expected that she would move her eyes on him, but no. So, he has to be a starter.

"How is your work in the US?" He asked.

"It's good," Qing Qing replied but still her eyes were kept on the phone.

Seeing this, Jin Fu was a little bit disappointed, but he tried to keep smiling and find a way to communicate with her.

He took the phone from his pocket and opened his channel.

"Qing Qing, my channel is growing views."

He showed it to her. In his expectation, she would rise eyes to look, would be surprised, would cheer his success, and also she would notice his new phone, but all his imagination did not appear. Qing Qing really raised her face and viewed what he was showing her, but she just nodded and said, "Good." then she returned her glance to her phone.

It was completely disappointing, and Jin Fu was so upset about that. He put the phone back into pocket and continued his food.

At that time, a man approached their table. He wore proper dress as an office-man. He was so fine, and he smiled at the girlfriend of Jin Fu.

"Qing Qing."

Qing Qing rose face. When she saw the new man, she smiled big, "Yang."

Man who named Yang grinned at the lady.

"You come to have lunch here?" Qing Qing stood up.

"No, I have already. I just came to see you," Yang stated. "You forget we will go to meet the client?"

"No, I don't."

Jin Fu was sitting and looking at the two people talking. He was wondering who that man was and he was waiting for his girlfriend to introduce.

Qing Qing seemed to be reminded about the presence of her man, so she established immediately.

"Jin Fu, this is Yang, my colleague. And Yang, he is my boyfriend."

Jin Fu got up and shook hands with the male colleague of his girlfriend. "Nice to meet you," he said.

"Nice to meet you too," Yang replied.

"Yang, please wait for me. I'll go up to take documents first," Qing Qing said.

"No need. I brought it for you already. I keep in my car," Yang told.

"Oh, really thanks," Qing Qing saluted. Next, she turned to Jin Fu, "Jin Fu, I need to go now."

"Okay." Jin Fu nodded.

"Waiter..." Qing Qing called.

"You go. I'll pay," Jin Fu claimed.

Qing Qing cocked her head when hearing her boyfriend's acclamation. At that time, Jin Fu smiled and nodded as a signal to her that he was really able to pay, then the woman got released and waved, "Okay, bye bye."

"Bye," Jin Fu said.

"Bye," Yang stated to Jin Fu.

"Bye," Jin Fu said.

Qing Qing and her colleague walked off the restaurant leaving Jin Fu standing at the table looking at them from behind.

The man glanced at Yang who was taking care of his girlfriend - he opened the door for her, and Qing Qing showed a very big smile at him.

When perceiving this image, the young man's mind was not at peace. Upset and unhappy. He returned to his seat and finished rice from the plate, then he called for a bill.

Afterwards, he left the eatery place for his office.

When he went to the restaurant, he took a taxi. When he came back, he took the bus.

On the public transportation, Jin Fu sat with eyes looking through the window. He sighed many times.

Actually, he did not think anything, but he seemed not happy, and he did not know either why he was not happy.

When the bus reached its stop, he took off and walked to the hotel. He strolled silently into the lobby and took the elevator go up to his working floor.

When he got inside, He Hua sat on his chair at his desk and scrolled finger on the tablet like usual. He was alone; Black Centipede wasn't here.

"You come back?" He Hua stated.

"Yes," Jin Fu said.

"Delicious?"

"So so," Jin Fu uttered, then walked to his sofa.

The boss noticed his companion's words seemed dry. In his opinion, this lunch was not so pleasant. Though, it was out of his boundary; therefore, he did not continue any word.

After sitting on the seat, Jin Fu took the laptop to put on his laps and started his chore.

He did it quietly.

Few minutes later, a knock appeared.

Jin Fu turned face to the door at the same time it opened. A guard came in a few steps from the door and informed, "Boss, cook brings food."

"Take in," He Hua claimed with his eyes kept on the tablet.

The guard opened the door wide to permit the trolley to get into the room. Then the cook took a plate of sandwich and glass of strawberry juice to put on the table before Jin Fu. After that, he took his leave with his trolley and also the guard bowed before he got off.

"For you," He Hua told.

"Me?" Jin Fu lifted face.

"To prevent you from working hungry."

Jin Fu wagged his head in a row when he heard the speech of his boss.

"Thanks," he said.

In return, the patron said "Um" in his throat.

First thing Jin Fu took was the strawberry juice. He took a sip, then he locked his eyes for one second before he sucked his lips. This kind of drink boosted his mood. His mind was fresh and shiny again and he was able to work with energy.

He Hua peeked at his companion. When he saw his expression lively, he beamed.

Both men did not say anything during work. They remained in their seats and focused on their own duties.

Two hours passed.

Jin Fu still buried face with the laptop. He did not take his butt leaving the sofa for a bit. He had no problem with it, but this caused trouble in his boss's mind.

"You empty a glass, don't you feel like peeing?"

This statement poked the young man.

"I forget," Jin Fu said, then he got up.

"Go to my bathroom," He Hua said.

"Okay."

The young guy walked to open the room door. He got in for a few seconds then came out.

"Take a break and eat a snack," He Hua said.

"Okay." Jin Fu nodded.

There were four pieces of triangle bread. They looked so good. Jin Fu took one piece off the plate and bit it between teeth. Not only the appearance but also taste, it was awesome, it made the companion's mouth attach to it, and he finished two pieces in a short period.

Appetite of the young guy created a smile on the face of the boss. He was very content to see his staff satisfied.

On the table, there was a bottle of pure drinking water and glass prepared already. Jin Fu took the bottle, but he did not pour it into glass, he opened the cover then drank directly with his lips.

It was fine with whatever he does, his boss did not feel dislike.

Knock, knock, knock.

He Hua looked at the door that was opened out and Black Centipede appeared along with a man.

"Boss," Black Centipede utters, "I bring the bank officer."

"Okay, let's proceed," He Hua said.

"Yes."

Black Centipede told the bank-officer, "It's him."

"Huh?" Jin Fu raised eyebrows as his ears mentioned what the confidant said.

"Boss calls him to open a bank account for you," Black Centipede explained.

"Why need a bank account?" Jin Fu displayed question expression.

Black Centipede wanted to describe, but He Hua spoke first, "For transfer your salary."

After hearing that, Jin Fu remembered, "Huh, it's one month already."

The man smiled when he knew that he would get his work payment.

"Come on, sir." Jin Fu moved his butt to give place to the bank-officer.

His attitude made Black Centipede roll his eyes.

For He Hua, he made a small joke speech to Jin Fu, "Just hear money, you smile widely."

"Yes, money can make everyone smile," Jin Fu said.

"Money face."

"Who does not love money," Jin Fu stated then turned to the bank officer, "right sir?"

The officer did not respond. He just smiled.

It took several minutes to finish, then the bank-officer paid goodbye and left.

Jin Fu yelled HOOH with a big smile on his face. He was about to restart work, but He Hua paused him, "Enough for today."

"Oh." Jin Fu was a little bit surprised, but then he nodded his head, "Okay."

"Black Centipede," He Hua called.

"Yes Boss."

"Do you have any work? If you don't, go to the sauna with us."

Black Centipede thought, then gave a response, "I want to buy things."

"Okay. I'll go with Jin Fu."

At once, Jin Fu turned to glare at his boss.

When Black Centipede left the office room, he stood up and said to the boss, "We are going to the sauna?"

"Um." He Hua nodded. "And you pay."

"What!!!"
