Living Together's?


Upon seeing Luna who was entering the office hall, Devano rushed to pretend to walk towards the elevator and as if not seeing Luna while walking in the same direction.


"Good morning, sir," said Luna as she stood behind Devano who was waiting in front of the elevator door.


Devano then turned his body and greeted Luna who was standing behind him. "Hey, Luna. You've got here?"


"Yes, Sir."


TING


The elevator door opened, Devano then entered the elevator, followed by Luna who followed him into the elevator. When another employee was about to enter the elevator, Devano hurriedly kicked him out.


"I'm sorry, it's full" Devano said, pressing the elevator doors.


"Sir, but in this elevator there's only the two of us. Why did you say it was full?"


"Luna, come on. I can't jostle with other people in an elevator. Do you know who I am?"


"Oh yes, sir."


The atmosphere in the elevator was silent. Every now and then, Devano stared at the reflection of Luna's face on the elevator wall that was currently looking down.


'Come on, baby, ' Inner Devano.


"Emh, uh, Mister. "


"Yes, what's wrong? Of course, Luna."


Hearing Devano's words, Luna frowned. "Why did you say of course? Didn't I say anything to you?"


"Oh yes, sorry. What do you want to say, Luna?" ask Devano. However, Luna had not yet answered him, the elevator door was open.


TING


"Come to my room!" devano's orders. Luna nodded her head then walked behind Devano and followed his steps into his room.


"Let's sit down, Luna!" devano's orders. Luna then sat down next to Devano who was already sitting on the sofa.


"What's up, Luna? Is there something you want to say?"


"Emh... Before, I'm sorry."


"I'm sorry? What's the matter, Luna?"


"Look, Sir. I know, I just worked in this office. But I'm really in need of Mr. Devano's help."


"Requires my help? What can I help you with?"


"Once again, I'm sorry. But, can you help me by lending me money? My position is desperate, sir. And I really need money in a nominal amount big enough to free my sister who is currently being held captive by a loan shark. I-I promise, sir. I'll return the money, please cut my salary. But please, help me sir, help me. " said Luna sobbing.


Seeing Luna who currently looks fragile, compassion began to seep into Devano's heart. He then clasped Luna's hand.


"Don't be sad, don't cry. I'll definitely help you."


"Really, Sir? Thank you very much, Sir."


"Yes." Yeah."


"Please cut my salary, sir. S-I also want to work without salary."


"Sttttt, please don't say that to me. You work for me. I deserve to pay you. Now tell me how much do you need?"


'Oh a hundred million? I thought it was only fifty million. But, it's no problem for me, it's a very small number, Devano's inner.


"Luna, don't say that. I'm not gonna cut your pay."


Luna then scrunched her forehead. "You don't want to cut my pay? Then, how do I return the money, sir?"


Devano then smiled wryly. "How about we make a deal."


"covenant? What agreement, sir?"


Devano then looked at Luna. "Luna, in three months I'm getting engaged and married to a woman. My parents said that we've been betrothed since childhood, probably since the womb."


"Then? What does this have to do with me, sir?"


"Listen to me, Luna. Before I get engaged and marry that woman, will you live with me?"


"LIVING WITH YOU? WHAT THE FUCK? WHAT WOMAN DO YOU THINK I AM, SIR?"


"Luna, Luna, Luna. Please lower the volume of your voice! Don't think no to me! Have you forgotten? Didn't I promise last night, I won't touch you first, otherwise my company goes bankrupt and I turn ugly" Devano grumbled.


Luna looked at Devano with a question mark filled gaze. "Then?"


"I just want to ask you to stay with me until I get engaged. Then, you don't have to pay the money you borrowed to pay off your sister's debts. How's it?"


Luna was still staring at Devano with a sharp gaze. "Living together?" ask Luna.


"Not Luna. I'm not gonna demand anything from you, I just want you to stay in the apartment and keep me company, that's all, nothing more. Did you forget..."


"I won't touch you first, otherwise your company goes bankrupt and you turn ugly. Is that what you're trying to say?" cut Luna.


"Yes" Devano replied, chuckling.


"Then how? Will you accompany me until I'm engaged?"


Luna was silent for a moment, and seemed to think. "How's Luna? Isn't your time not much? If you do, then right now we're going to release your sister. How's it?"


Luna was still silent, for a while, she seemed to be nodding her head. 'Yeah, hoplaaaa!' inner Devano as he looked at Luna who nodded her head.


"Well sir, you won't touch me, will you?"


"Yes, I won't touch you first" Devano replied.


"Better now, let's free your sister. Ask him where they kept your sister. I'll pay that hundred million, Luna."


"Emh, well sir. I'll ask where they're holding Arka."


"Yes" Devano replied. Luna was busy fiddling with her phone to contact Kayla, while Devano, looking at Luna with a grin.


'I won't touch you first, Luna. But for the last three months, I will bend my knees to you, and ask you to open that padlock of yours, hahahhahhahaha, Devano's inner self.


'I can't wait to enjoy the chery fruit that ranum on your chewy object that has not been touched by anyone, and the golf hole that is still tight and warm, hahahaha. I'm sure, it must be emhhhh really delicious. Ahhaha!' inner Devano is back.
