"You okay?” Khai asked as he held onto Chan's shoulder. But the one asked only answered with a nod of the head.
Inwardly, Chan felt very guilty. Actually, he did not mean to say that but because he did not want to be teased by the members so he said things that should not be said.
Chan clenched both hands, ‘Stupid base! I should have been chasing him, not even staying here’ said furiously.
“Kids... are you ready?”
The five members turned their heads compactly towards Mr. Arsel, but not with Chan who was still silent.
“Come, leave” Pak Arsel Commando.
“Hei... Why are you?” Ask Mr. Arsel to Chan.
Not getting a response from Chan, Mr. Arsel again wanted to ask but Khai first gave a code so that the middle-aged man did not ask anything.
“Alright, I won't talk anymore. But you have to keep your spirits up, okay?” Mr. Arsel patted Chan slowly on the shoulder, then gave the command for the members to hurry.

“One more time, please be more serious” said a photographer.
The five members turned to Chan who had not focused so that the shooting process was repeated.
“Come brother, we're tired” complained Zhi.
“Maaf” Chan replied briefly.
“After this solve your problem, but be professional for a moment. They also need a break” Bisik Khai while glancing at the staff on duty.
After repeating the photo shoot a few times, the members can finally rest. Dza got the shooting sequence first, but he relented to Chan who kept on fidgeting from the start. And with the help of Khai and other members, Chan got permission from Pak Arsel so he could go home first.
Chan rushes to Lea's house, but Lea is not home. Chayra had brought Leah home since then. Dayyan also had no idea where her brother was going.
‘Akh.. can-can the boy worry’
‘Why can my mouth be that bad? Is it true I already considered him a sister?!’ Monologue Chan gazes at Lea's house from across the street.
Two hours passed... Lea hasn't come back yet, which worries Chan even more. Many times he called Lea but there was no result.
Meanwhile, from behind the window, someone was staring at a car that had been parked since two hours ago.
“So sure you don't want to go out? It's been two hours” said Dayyan.
Lea heaved a heavy sigh, “Let it be, it wasn't me who told her”
“I don't know what your problem is, but big brother often says that the problem will not be solved if you keep quiet. Why is it that even sister is hiding?”
Lea glared at Dayyan for daring to imitate her words. “Just ignore him. I want to sleep” said Lea as she breezed into the room.
***Daytime***
Lea looked up at the sky with a fluffy smile, ‘The sky is so bright, hopefully that annoying boss has a stomachache so can't get to the office today’.
“Are you cursing Mr CEO?”
Lea turned her head, surprised to see Felix already standing behind her, “So I heard him?” He asked with a embarrassed smile.
Felix nodded his head, “Once it's okay to curse the boss, I also often do it” he said in a whisper.
Lea smiled hearing it, “Come, enter”
The two then entered together and separated in their respective rooms.
From morning until lunchtime, Lea continued to shy away from Chan. But Chan isn't his name if he doesn't have the sense to force Lea to see him.
‘You want to test me, huh? All right, let's see you later’ muttered Chan while smiling.
.
.
The employees were gathered to hear the announcement from Chan. I don't know what the man said that made the employees smile. Although all seemed enthusiastic, Lea chose to remain calm in her seat without being curious about the announcement.
“There's an announcement what?” Ask Lyli again.
“Pak Chan will contact us after work” replied an employee.
Knowing Lea had just joined, Chan deliberately hardened his voice by saying, “Everything has to come along, without exception!”
Inwardly, Lea actually cursed Chan who deliberately made her unable to go home early and had to follow her request.
Time quickly passed, unwittingly the clock home has arrived, as agreed upon, the employees immediately headed to the restaurant with a vintage concept. Without rambling, all employees order food according to their individual tastes.
“Do not hesitate to choose any menu. Eat a lot until you are full” Titah Chan.
‘Did he think that spending this kind of money could make me his employee?!’Lea muttered softly, her gaze sharp towards Chan who was busy chatting with other employees.
“What do you want to eat?” Lyli asked as she elbowed Lea's arm.
Lea turned to Lyli who had shocked her, “Anything, I like everything”
Lyli clucked, “What's up, huh? Alright”
At first, the employees ate voraciously while chatting casually. But suddenly things got awkward because the attention of the employees was centered on Felix when he was putting the meat he roasted onto Lea's plate.
“Pak Felix seems to be close to Lea, huh?” Ask an employee.
Felix just nodded his head with a smile. Suddenly it makes the employees excited, there are even whistling tick Felix and Lea. While Lea just smiled wryly in response to it.
“Ehemmm..”
All the employees went silent as soon as they heard Chan's voice.
“Sorry, if we are too noisy” said an employee, followed by a nod of the head from other employees.
Dining together is over, one by one employees say goodbye home. So was Lea who was preparing to go home, but was blocked by Chan.
“I'll take you home” Chan said.
“Thank you, but I'll go home myself” Lea replied without turning to Chan.
“It's late, what do you want to go home?”
“Didn't you make me come home this evening? Why now so pretend to care?!” Ask Lea sarcastically.
Chan sighed, holding back the emotion of confronting the stubborn Lea, “We must speak” Rayunya.
“If you have anything to say, please talk now!” Answer Lea.
“Here there are still employees..” Chan said, looking around.
“Then..” Not finished Lea talk, Felix has approached first.
Realizing the tense situation, Felix said quietly, “It seems like I came at an inopportune time”
Lea immediately shook her head, “No, we're done talking. Come on, we go home”
“You guys came home together?” Ask Chan.
“Why are you bothering others? Your home is going in the opposite direction!” Chan returned to flinching.
Lea was silent, not responding to Chan's question.
“It's okay, indeed I want to drive him” Felix said as he winked at Chan.
Because Felix wanted it, Chan just kept quiet and let the two go together.
