Daydream of the past

After Natasya came out of the secretary's room as if giving Abel a chance to remember his past, she tried to ensure that his current boss was the same person.

Slightly back in high school 13 years ago.

Gabriella Cantika, a beautiful name, was given to Abel's parents when she was born with full hope that this name would bring good to her. When she entered high school, the name boomeranged on her, Cantika, the last name, who was always the subject of ridicule by her friends.

Cantika does not seem to present her appearance, which is not by the beauty standards made by the social community. Because his life at school, which only became the subject of bullying by his friends, made Abel even more withdrawn from friendship, his love for books seemed to help him from loneliness.

Almost every day after finishing his lunch, she went to the school library to read a book until the class bell rang again; every day, it continued like that. Until there is one incident that makes Abel finally feel she has a friend and his first love.

At that time, Abel wanted to take the Science book, which was on the top shelf in the library, she had tried various ways, but she could not reach the book until finally there was a male student with tall stature and a sharp nose helping her very kindly.

Since meeting and having conversations for the first time, Abel has often met this man; he became his secret admirer for almost three years and came to Abel's graduate school.....

A knock on the door broke Abel's daydream in front of the computer, and it turned out that she had been absent for almost half an hour. A cleaning service came in shortly and asked for permission to clean the room.

"Excuse me, ma'am. I want to clean the room for a while," said the cleaning service, lowering his head.

Abel smiled friendly and invited the cleaning service to clean his room. She immediately opened his computer screen and work email and had a lot of incoming work.

"Ouch. Again that daydream makes everything fall apart!"

She immediately did his job of analyzing the work and filtering all the documents to be submitted to Alex. On the sidelines of doing the task, Abel felt that there should be caffeine that entered his body; she immediately got up from his seat to go to the pantry.

All eyes were on Abel as if she was walking on the red carpet full of cameras everywhere when she walked. She lowered his head, trying his best to distract the other employees.

Arriving at the pantry, she met Airlangga, who was also making coffee.

"Want some coffee too?" Airlangga said when Abel was about to take the instant coffee the office had prepared.

Abel nodded his head.

"Want me to make my coffee blend? Because instant coffee tastes very monotonous," said Airlangga, looking into Abel's eyes full of hope that his offer would be approved.

With a heavy heart, Abel nodded his head; she knew that making coffee took a long time while a lot of work was chasing her.

For almost fifteen minutes, Abel was in the pantry, and it just so happened that none of the employees came. A cup of coffee was already in Abel's hands; she took a sip and was immediately amazed by the taste of the coffee made by Airlangga; he didn't expect it to be this delicious.

"Wow. Your coffee is delicious," said Abel happily.

Airlangga immediately smiled wide; his eyes did not stop staring at Abel. Finished making coffee, Abel brought a cup of coffee into his room, but when she entered his room, there was already a man who made her think of his past.

"Where have you been?" said the man, firmly making Abel a little scared and immediately putting a cup of coffee in it.

Abel immediately explained why she had been in the pantry for so long.

"Please analyze this document. I'll be waiting in the room for another 30 minutes!"

The sound of wide footsteps made Abel's heart beat fast, and she immediately started working on the documents on his desk.

On the other hand, Alex was annoyed with Abel's explanation; he was upset with Airlangga because he always teased his secretary first. He had clenched his fist, a sign that the woman who was his secretary now immediately captivated his heart.

When Alex was sitting in his room, Airlangga came in carrying a brown folder containing Abel's contract signature. Like other employees when they first worked here, they were given a one-year work contract to see the progress of their work.

"Delete the contract agreement and make Abel a permanent employee," said Alex to Airlangga. He was entirely captivated by the figure of Abel even though he didn't know who he was.

Airlangga immediately denied Alex's words because he had violated company regulations that have been made in such a way since his father was still in office.

"But that would violate company regulations! I won't do that just because of your words!"

Hearing his younger brother's rebuttal, Alex immediately stood up from his desk, emphasizing that he had to follow his boss's words.

"I do not want to know. The point is Abel must become a permanent employee!"

Airlangga immediately turned around and screeched to face his brother's actions again. Airlangga was fed up with Alex, who never listened to his input.

"Done!" said Abel and immediately rushed to Alex's room.

When the door opened, two people have seen standing with a cynical look, which made Abel reluctant to enter.

"Sorry, sir, for interrupting. This is the document you gave me earlier," said Abel, immediately putting the paper on the table.

The two men could only stare into his eyes without answering Abel's question; Abel immediately left the room after placing the documents.

"What were they talking about just now? Did my ears hear wrong? An Alex defended me in front of other people?" muttered Abel in his heart.

Abel had done all the work, and then she looked at the clock on his cellphone; it looked like it was already 5 in the afternoon, a sign that all employees, including himself, had to go home. She put all his things in his bag and didn't forget the coffee cup she brought from the pantry; she would also return.

"Would you like to come home with me?" asked the man who had been waiting for Abel in front of his room.

Abel's eyes widened when she saw the man; she did not expect the offer from the man. Abel could only catch his breath; his mind had to be completely clear to accept an invitation, especially since he also brought a private vehicle.

"Excuse me, sir. I brought a vehicle, "Abel answered spontaneously.

Hearing Abel's answer, there was disappointment etched on his face.

"Well. Tomorrow if I pick you up, how about it?"
