Dream Smile
Episode 33

"Wait!"

"Otherwise?" rico said because I stopped his steps.

I'm clucking. "I want to fix my makeup first, cook want to meet with the HRD part of the fir face like this," said I switch to take the powder that tucked in my pocket.

"Snap, it'll be too late" said Rico and I immediately pulled over on the side of the lobby glass.

I also started rubbing the powder a few times on my cheeks and making sure I look better. For the last touch I took the lipstick rubbing it on my lips, then smacked both sides of my lips so that my lystic sweep was even.

But suddenly I was jolted when the glass in front of me that was black now looks bright because the curtain is being opened, showing the figure of a man who is also looking at me.

I was stunned by the accident that the lipstick I was holding slid to the bottom of the floor. My eyes blink hard I believe, what have I done? batin asked.

Realizing that I had become a spectacle of the person before me, I immediately turned a step. Walk quickly by flanking Rico's arm then dragging him away from this place as far as possible.

I don't care about Rico who keeps nagging me, because what I have in mind is now shame and shame.

"Oh, I'm looking at the devil!" said Rico and I took off my arm.

"More than the devil" I said, trying to normalize my breathing.

"What, satan? Where's?" he said confused by looking around.

I'm sighing. "Here you go, take the road!" I pulled his arm again.

Walking through the lobby I tried to normalize my heart beat. What I saw earlier was I don't know who I was, he was very handsome in my judgment but the man just looked at me expressionlessly.

And I thought maybe he was just a hotel customer here, my inner self.

Arriving at the HRD room I saw that Mr. Erwin had arrived first. Said an officer we asked, we were asked to wait first because in the room there are employees who are in need.

I glanced at the door of HRD before taking a seat beside Rico. But before long the door opened making me a little jolted because what I was seeing was a very familiar figure, Mr. Akram.

"Cow."

"Mr Erwin. You here?" sahut Pak Akram welcomed Mr. Erwin's hand, they both shook hands with me and Rico who then approached. For a moment they talked to each other.

"For a long time did not meet you Co.," said Mr. Akram who continued to hug Rico, the two of them used to be very close to each other. Even so familiar I've heard Mr. Akram often stay at the home of Rico's parents while still living in Solo. Although the age of a few years does not hinder to be friendly.

And this time Mr. Akram looked at me with a smile back. He approached me who was still standing glued to the spot with him moving closer and then stopped right in front of me. His hands stretched out and ruffled my hair. "Until you're here, too" he said.

I can't say anything more. My head nodded along with my tears dripping down.

Mr. Akram's hand this time moved to pat my shoulder. "Living away soon your ideals will be realized," he said, which made me nod my head again.

"Don't cry that your powder is back to fade," Rico reminded by nudging my arm.

I also grinned at his words, but I immediately normalized my voice with a thud and then said despite being accompanied by nervousness. "Pak Akram hasn't seen each other in a long time."

"Yes, and it seems that you have changed a lot" said Mr. Akram who stared at my appearance.

What has changed, my mind. Because it feels the same, I keep it this way.

"Yes obviously Kram, the difference now that Ayu is often a hobby and when it used to be polosan. No powder to be taken anywhere," said Rico pointed to the pocket of my bag which turned out to be where the powder poking.

Just touch me pinch Rico's arm hard because it feels like I have been humiliated by him in front of Mr. Akram.

"Woy pain!" rico's protest rubbed his arm.

I saw Mr. Akram chuckle at us and he said, "It should look more beautiful."

It felt like my blood flow was crawling up my cheeks. My cheeks are warming up now, maybe it's like a boiled crab. But I don't know. As hard as I try to behave normally, there is no way in this place I cheer because I get praise from Mr. Akram.

But unlike Rico, he laughed at me this time.

"I want to go back to work then. Maybe you will soon go inside and get directions will be placed in which department," said Mr. Akram who began to say goodbye.

Rico and I nodded before Mr. Akram left first. While Mr. Erwin was already in the HRD room a few minutes ago.
