"Come on wake up!" Someone just shook Helena's sleeping body in her cubicle of work.

Feeling disturbed, Helena opened her eyes and then turned to the voice's origin. She found a middle-aged woman standing nearby. It was Nora, her teammate.

"You're being come too fast? Did you leave with Alan?" asked Nora as their eyes met.

"Yes, we are." Helena replied as she stretched her spine.

"No wonder. Go wash your face!" Helena nodded at Nora's command.

Helena immediately headed for the toilet as Nora said to make herself fresh again. Fortunately, this morning she did not wear makeup except lip tint.

After washing her face with faucet water, Helena looked at her reflection in the mirror, and then in memory of last night's events flashed in her mind.

At first, there was nothing special, until Helena fell right when she got out of the car. Helena's legs feel weak, perhaps the effect of waking up that only lasts for a few minutes. Bastian then put Helena on the back, carried her to the room's door, then hurried away because he felt terrible if he lingered in the girl's boarding area at midnight.

After Bastian went home, Helena felt her legs limper while her face flushed with embarrassment. That's the first time another man than Alan has carried her. And Helena couldn't deny the fact that her heart was pounding violently.

Helena entered her room with limp legs to immediately lay down her body resignedly after previously locking the door tightly.

Because of this, Helena couldn't fall asleep despite being exhausted. Her heart kept beating violently, and various thoughts hit her head, which were good and bad mixed until she only realized when the sound of azan sounded.

She also decided to take a shower and go to morning prayers immediately. Usually, Helena will go back to sleep after doing that, but this time it is different. She was lucky enough to be able to sleep for a while in the office.

"I have to keep a safe distance, poor my heart," Helena said, feeling unprepared at the possibility of what she should do when she met the Boss.

"What do you mean 'keeping your distance'?"

"What?"

How surprised Helena was when she heard a question for her. She then turned to the sound source and found Sonia standing next to her. The woman was washing her hands that were expos to printer ink.

"I asked, what are you trying to avoid?" Sonia asked once more with a dull look.

The look on her face and the look in her eyes explained that Sonia hated repeating the same question, and there was also an aura of hostility on Sonia's face.

'what the … am i snatching her stuff?' Helena's inner snorted silently, then before the woman grew more annoying, Helena explained.

"Stay away from the things that make my heart unhealthy!" said Helena, washing her face for the umpteenth time in a few minutes.

"For your heart health? What kind of thing?" asked Sonia.

"Well, some kind of dangerous thing, like cigarettes or something like that." Helena replied while prodding her shoulders.

"But-,"

"After al.l..." Helena interrupted, cutting off the woman's remarks even if it was only one word.

She took a while to turn his head and looked at Sonia with a matte look.

"Whatever I'm going to do, doesn't it have nothing to do with you? We are not that close to being able to exchange personal things," Helena continued looking at Sonia with a wet face.

Helena turned her gaze back to the mirror and then took a tissue to dry her face. She didn't intend to prolong the matter.

"I heard that you are often in the same car as Mr. Sebastian," Sania told the points.

Helena smiled sarcastically, and she stared at her reflection, which looked wet with a few threads of water on her face. The guess is accurate.

Sonia must have a particular intention when entering the toilet. Using the excuse to wash her hands due to being exposed to the ink spill is just an excuse.

"Then... Why?" asked Helena without turning her head.

"You ask 'why'? Mr. Bastian must be playing tricks on you. Anyway, don't be a seeker!! I know what do you want from attractive to Mr. Bastian, Because of..."

"Don't blame anyone else!" cried Helena hitting the sink table hard, even though her gaze did not divert from the mirror. Then she looked at Sonia sarcastically.

"If not Mr Bastian covering my camera phone, it would be a photo of you and the head of the department when you were in the basement for a few days, and then it would have been circulating in the office forum group!" Helena in annoyance.

One of the things she hates most besides insults is throwing mistakes at others and talking about others to look good and stand out. Helena was most disgusted with such a type of person.

She ignored it for several months of work because of her position as an employee. After all, as long as it did not disturb her, she would not care about Sonia's actions.

"Do you think they all don't know that you're the head of personnel because of someone's help? Then now you are accusing me that I am going to use Mr. Bastian?" chuckled Helena viciously.

Helena stepped closer to Sonia. One step she pashed and said again. "Isn't that your plan? Do you want to get upstairs because of rumours that the Secretary is going on maternity leave? And in the near future he will make the appointment of an assistant secretary? Hahaha, I know so much more than you, Miss S-O-N-I-A," Helena said, clearly spelling Sonia's name before walking away.

Sonia was still unmoved, even though the contents of her head were falling apart, raging expletives, insults and even the cruellest replies to Helena. Still, surprisingly her body could not respond to what she thought.

"You want to compete with me Miss?" Helena chuckled, then disappeared behind the door that was swinging shut.

Sonia is still staying in her place. She doesn't care about rumours that don't have enough evidence circulating. But, she could hear as Helena explained in detail with a look in her eyes that seemed to know everything.

Sonia bit her nails covered in navy blue nail polish with a beautiful glitter on it looked agitated, especially before leaving the room. Helena challenged herself with confidence.

"You think just because it was a few times delivered by Mr Sebastian, then put you in power?" Cursing Sonia in a murmur. "You asshole!!"

"All right, you're the one who challenged me. I will show you how adults act!" Sonia laughed out loud at the thought of herself getting rid of Helena.

"Are you crazy?"
