Say Hello
SH 5
Lea looked at her reflection in the mirror, grabbed the bag on the bed, then ran small towards the yard, meeting Dayyan who had been waiting for fifteen minutes.
As soon as she opened the door, the girl squinted at the sunlight, quickly wearing the helmet that Dayyan had prepared.
This morning, the sun shone very bright, as if to encourage Lea who is now officially an intern of the CSC company. One of the pioneering companies founded by famous idols homeland. Although, being an intern at the CSC because of desperate circumstances, but it actually provides benefits for Lea. In addition to CSC is a pioneering company that is growing rapidly, the salary is also greater than part-time work.
“So long ago, I could be late to school” Protest Dayyan.
“Maaf”
“If I'm late, big brother should talk to teacher!”
“Your brother didn't even have time for breakfast, you were grumbling. Fuckin' bad brother!”
“That's one of my own brother, already know want to work instead wake up too noon”
“Previous part-time work in the afternoon, so you are not used to working in the morning. Don't protest anymore, let's walk” said Lea while patting his sister's shoulder.
.
.
Lea's eyes circled, then noticed the stack of paper in front of her, ‘Where should I start? Why doesn't anyone guide me?’ Mumbled slowly.
Skew.tuk...
Lea turned to look at the person who had just tapped her index finger on the table. Smiling awkwardly, Lea asked, “What's wrong?”
“You're a new employee, huh?”
“True. I just today work”
“Why are you in the finance division? Do you have a brother here?”
Lea's forehead shriveled at the woman's question, “Not” She replied later.
“According to the news, you're still in college. Is that true?”
Lea and the woman turned their heads at the same time as a man emerged from behind the cubicles of his desk.
“Make a surprise only!” The woman's protest. The suspect laughed without guilt.
“You haven't answered my question!” The man shouted at Lea.
“True, I'm still in college. But, I am already in my final semester and am waiting for graduation. So, I intern here” Bright Lea.
The man and woman compactly nodded their heads, “Internship workers apparently”.
“Ehemmm... did you guys get paid to chat?!”
Seeing Felix standing upright, the two employees immediately returned to focus on their respective jobs.
“I'll teach you” Felix said as he pulled up a chair and sat next to Lea.
Felix taught Lea patiently, but Lea who was basically smart, without taking a long time already understood what was taught. In fact, the two were engaged in a heated discussion. Unwittingly, someone has been among them.
“It seems, your chat is very exciting!”
Lea and Felix turned their heads together, visibly surprised by Chan's presence.
“As a company manager as well as my personal assistant, you still seem to have a lot of free time. What better, I give you an extra job?!”
Felix bowed his head as Chan stared at him fixedly, “Maaf”.
Without being given command, Felix immediately said goodbye and returned to his study.
Chan turned around, passing from before Lea while saying, “Come to my room now!”
.
.
Chan gave Lea a company profile document, asking her to memorize the name and face of the company's ranks, especially those in the finance division.
Actually, Chan wanted to avenge the actions of Lea who had given him salty coffee, but seeing the girl was seriously studying the company documents, made him undo the intention.
“Sorry, but I can't. You say that if we pretend not to know each other, if we eat together, the employees will be more sure if we already know each other. In addition, you can be the subject of media gossip and I will get an attack from your fans” Lea said firmly.
Chan was astonished to hear Lea's words, “You think I deliberately invited you? If it wasn't for mom and Chayra who kept whining, I wouldn't want to be this kind to you!”
Lea set her breath so that her emotions did not overflow, forced to smile despite being very upset at Chan's annoying expression.
“I will come out first. Again, thank you for your offer. Happy lunch, Mr. CEO” said Lea before leaving Chan's room.
Chan clenched both hands, his face flushed red staring at Lea who disappeared from behind the door.
‘Is he not sane? I can refuse my invitation, even though there are thousands or even millions of women who want to have lunch with me!’
‘Akh!!... embarrassing, why would I take her!’ Chan grumbled while shuffling his hair.
Chan's phone rang, indicating a message from someone. Her eyes immediately sparkled when she saw the name Tara on the ‘Say Hello’ app.
Tara :'s :
“Come, lunch together!”
The sun :
“Wahhh... What is this? Why suddenly?”
Tara :'s :
“I don't have any friends here yet, so I ate alone 😥”
The sun :
“Hahaha. Come!”
‘For a long time, I became curious about Tara. What better, I just ask him to meet?! But...how do I tell him if I'm an artist? I don't know.. I'm dizzy!’ Said Chan while massaging his temples.

Work hours have been completed, all employees are preparing to go home, including Lea. After finishing cleaning his desk, Lea rushed out of the office so as not to miss the bus. He had to walk about ten minutes to get to the bus stop. Over and over again, Lea turned to her left-right side but there was no sign of the bus arriving.
‘Padahat not too late, but why is the bus so long?’ Monologue Lea.
The girl looked up, looking at the sky that was getting dark because it was cloudy, ‘While the sky was very bright this morning, why is it so dark now? Did I just ask to pick up Dayyan? But... he can be rained if he comes here’
“Sore this, the bus will not come because SN road is being repaired. Instead, you find another vehicle just before it rains” Said a woman who was about to cross the road.
Lea nodded her head, “Thank you for the information”.
‘Call it. I have been in vain waiting since last’ muttered Lea while staring at the woman who was beside him, but now it is across the street.
The sky was getting darker, the clear grains also started to fall. Lea was still waiting at the bus stop while tinkering with the phone ordering a taxi online. He was frustrated that he had booked a taxi online three times, but there was no answer.
‘How is it?!’ Monologue Lea while rubbing his face roughly.
From a distance, Chan sees a woman pacing around like an iron at a bus stop. As he got closer, he realized that the man was Leah. Initially, Chan wanted to ignore and pretend not to see Lea because she was still upset over her lunch refusal. But as he glanced at the rearview mirror and saw Lea frightened by the sound of lightning, he immediately turned around and pulled the car right in front of the girl.
Chan slightly yelled to be heard by Lea, “Come, up!”
Lea immediately obeyed Chan before the man changed his mind. Within minutes, he was in the passenger seat.
“Thank you, for giving me a ride” Lea said softly.
Chan clucked, “I was forced to do it because I didn't want you to complain to Chayra and my mom”
‘That's why, I'd love to hit this guy!’ Mumbles Lea quietly. However, he could only endure the annoyance of seeing Chan's expression mocking him.
