Dream Smile
Episode 99's

It's past twelve o'clock at night, but Ayu's eyes are still hard to shut down and even the clockwork sound that meets her hearing senses.

Clucking annoyed, Ayu turned to rotate her position to sleep on her stomach but not intermittently that she found it was a sense of engap because it was difficult to breathe. Kicking the bolster that was at his side, Ayu also chose to get up from the bed to get out of the room.

Today, he was tired of the burden of the mind that was in his mind. Difficulty sleeping is not a trivial thing because tomorrow he must return to activities. An increasing moment of time leads his feet to walk around the house. Hope the drowsiness comes to him soon.

Dark and only illuminated by dim light Ayu down each room. Intentionally do not turn on the lights or wear footwear so as not to provoke people to just come to him.

Feet that began to feel sore will not want to make Ayu step stopped. He sat himself on the living room couch. A moment of staring circulated his eyes throughout the room but not intermittently he chose to lay his body on the long sofa with a mind that began to wander.

The eyes that were long awake slowly became faint. Tired as if feeling the whole body of Ayu until in his subconscious felt his body warmed. There was a sheet of cloth covering his body.

But the drowsiness that mastered was not able to make him open the eyelids more. Until in the dim light he could see a shadow of an old man who moved away from his place, and Ayu believed it was his grandfather.

Flinched, Ayu woke up spontaneously when she heard a noise from the kitchen. The blanket she had worn last night had dangled down onto the floor.

It was still dark outside because it was still dawn and the housekeeper at his house had started the activity. Soon Ayu stood up and realized that she was still in the living room.

But again he was stunned by the movement of his legs stopped because of the blanket that was lying on the floor. Realize that last night that happened is not just an illusion. The corners of his lips were interested. An expanding smile adorned her lips this morning as she was sure that her Grandfather had a sense of caring for her.

Squatting down to pick up the blanket, Ayu immediately continued her steps rushing back to the room.

The routine at work this morning was so tense. The problems caused by the failure of the Event made a team consisting of Ayu in it must face a private meeting led directly by the vice manager of Wijaya hotel, Akram Zaidan.

The nature that Ayu knew was very different when the figure was leading the meeting. Full of authority, firm and also hard. Hard in accordance with the situation at hand, especially if the staff make mistakes and violate procedures not in accordance with the rules of work.

The whole team is now affected including Ayu, many points Akram mentioned for his shortcomings. Including a less professional nature and lack of experience. Ayu also admitted because he felt as a beginner and certainly must be able to learn to develop his skills.

Until the afternoon break, Ayu still thought about the words of Akram also remembered his conversation with Soraya and Rudi. Like being connected, maybe the path Ayu can take is to study more. Because in his heart he believes that experience and insight can only be obtained from people who are willing to learn.

The person that Ayu saw really looked elegant with dress up neatly bottom, hair on the cepol, a rippled face and pleasing to the eye. Of course Ayu is sure the person next to him has more rank in this hotel, also definitely respected by the others. While he when compared, of course there is nothing.

It dawned on the person standing next to Ayu now looking at her, as the person realized that Ayu had long been watching her.

"Hi" said the woman standing next to Ayu after applying lipstick on her lips.

Kening Ayu frowned and then turned his head to the woman next to him and was about to go bamit after she washed her hands on the sink. But the woman said until Ayu stopped her steps.

"Wait on! Looks like we've met before" said the woman.

Ayu turned her steps and began to notice the woman who was standing not far from her. But he just shook his head.

The woman said, "Yesterday the day after. You are the one who came to the Thanksgiving event where Akram. Oh yes know me Dinda Akram secretary."

Ayu also welcomed a helping hand of women in front of him and began to remember that they had met at the day after the event.

"Just knowing that you work here, too," said Dinda and Ayu nodding at her while displaying a faint smile on her lips. "Yesterday Akram also told me, your name is Ayu right?"

Dinda's words made Ayu slightly jerked, but Dinda responded by smacking a smile on her lips. "Hopefully next time we can meet again. I want to talk to you a lot."

Ayu also immediately replied with a stiff smile, because her confused side had to take a stance with the person she just knew.

"OK then I go first," said Dinda who then passed first leaving the toilet, while Ayu's gaze still leads to Dinda's departure until lost behind the door.

Beautiful, graceful, educated and friendly. Secretary Pak Akram, and why did Pak Akram mention his name to the woman? Ayu really felt confused.

"Or don't-don't...?" muttered Ayu turned to the door, until finally rushed to go to look for Kevin.
