Say Hello
SH 7
Lea sat in a cafe while enjoying her favorite lemon tea, occasionally her eyes glanced at the phone lying just on the table.
Actually, he wanted to send a message to the Sun, but was afraid that the man was busy. Matahari once said that its workers do not have regular working hours. In fact, the man can work for 20 hours in one day. Although curious about the work of the Sun, but Lea did not dare to ask and just wait until the man told her, unfortunately.
“Lea..”.
The owner of the name turned to someone who had just called him.
“You have been waiting a long time?” Asked a woman while sipping Lea's drink without permission.
Lea just shook her head to see the habit of her best friend who often drank his drink without permission. The two friends loved lemon tea.
“Why suddenly invite to meet? Did something happen?” Ask Chayra again.
Lea nodded her head, her face also looked lethargic.
Chayra patted Lea's arm, “What's the problem?”
“I've made your sister angry. Tomorrow, he will definitely fire me”
Chayra who initially looked panicked, now it looks very relaxed, “Ku think a very serious problem” He said later.
“You can say that because he is your brother, different from me who is only an intern. He'll fire me tomorrow. Help me” Lea said by showing a pleading expression.
Chayra paused for a moment, then smiled meaningfully. Seeing that, of course, made Lea smile.
“So, what should I do?” Tanya Lea was enthusiastic.
Chayra shook her head with a big smile, “No”.
Lea sighed deeply, sipped her drink and did not respond to Chayra who was still smiling widely.
Chayra patted Lea on the shoulder as she said, “You take it easy, Brother Chan can't be long when angry. He is also busy in his group, so where to remember about the incident today”
“Entahlah. Just watch out, if it's not like you said”
“Yes, you can trust me. Come on, order some food. I'm hungry” Chayra replied, then opened the menu book and ordered two servings of fried rice as well as some snacks.
***Next Day***
Since morning, Chan was not in the office due to a magazine photo shoot. Although it made Lea a little relieved, but she was still worried if she would meet Chan later.
“You had lunch together?”
Lea looked up, her eyes fixed on a person who was now standing in front of the cubic of her workbench. At first, Lea wanted to refuse but the worms in her stomach could not be compromised until it sounded at the right time. He agreed to Felix's invitation.

Felix shows all the food and drink menus, he also recommends some mainstay menus. Lea who was never picky when eating, immediately agreed to the proposal from Felix without a second thought.
“The shop is very spacious and clean, I just ate here” said Lea mince words while waiting for their order to come.
Felix smiled at Lea's confession, ‘She was very forthright and what was’.
“What did you say something?”
“Not” Felix said as he scratched his nape. “If there is free time, I will take you around the canteen, here there are many good food and drinks. And also.. don't have to talk formally to me, just call me brother”.
Lea raised her palm, inviting the man in front of her tos as she said, “Alright. Then, from now on we're friends”
Felix greeted Lea's invitation tos with a smile. However, he suddenly became confused to see the strange behavior of Lea who was hiding under the table. Not yet had time to ask, Lea had first asked permission to go to the toilet while running.
“You ate alone?”
Someone's voice distracts Felix. Sighly, the man turned his head, “Iya” He replied later.
Just now Felix said that, a cafeteria employee came to bring two portions of food and drinks. Suddenly, it made Felix become misbehaved because he was caught lying to his boss.
Meanwhile, Chan folded both hands on his chest while looking fixedly at Felix. Then, prepare to eat the food that has been served on the table, “You have ordered for me also apparently” He said.
Quickly, Felix stopped Chan's intentions and said, “Alright, I'm sorry. I was with Lea and now she's going to the toilet. So, don't eat his food”
“You've started lying since hanging out with him, huh?”
“Do not talk like that. You can eat mine” Felix replied and then give his food to Chan.
Realizing something, Felix again asked, “Why your wrist?”
“Brained at practice”
“What is so sick?”
“No, but the doctor forbade me from moving much for the next three or four days. Don't worry like that, you scared me”
“He will not return” Chan replied casually while eating his food.
Felix looked suspiciously at Chan, “Did he deliberately avoid you?”
Chan just nodded his head at Felix's question.
.

Hours of rest have passed, Lea became unable to focus on work because of holding back hunger.
‘Akh, why should he show up?! Unfortunately my stomach’ said Lea while stroking her stomach.
“Hmmm”
Lea did not dare to turn her head because she was very familiar with the voice of someone who was now behind her.
“HMMM..”
Not wanting to make the person even more upset, Lea finally turned around, venturing to look at Chan who was standing firmly with both hands in his pants pocket.
“What can I help you with, Sir?” Ask me clumsily.
“Cute to my room now!” Chan said, then walked ahead of Leah.
Lea hit her forehead muttering, ‘Definitely finally this way, I thought’ Then followed Chan who was getting further from view.
Arriving at Chan's office, Lea is shocked to find an unusual assignment. He was asked to sign a photo of Chan to be shared with his fans. And Lea, you have to do it if you want to get an apology from Chan.
“You must make it exactly the same, lest it arouse suspicion!”
“Don't your fans be disappointed if they know who signed someone else?”
“I also deeply regret this, but my hand was sprained. If used forcefully, the recovery will be even longer. Meanwhile, our CEO has promised to share this photo for the company's birthday celebration which will be held in the day after
“So apparently. There are 500 photos in total, a lot of them. But, fortunately your signature is not difficult so it can be replicated easily” said Lea with a smile, but he immediately withdrew his smile because he got a deathly look from Chan.
“You mean, my signature is very market, so?”
“Ti.. no, you don't think bad first”
“Originally know, out there many want to get my autograph. And also.. this is not my signature original”
Lea's forehead shriveled at Chan's statement. Quickly, the man immediately explained, “If you only use one signature, there could be a party that uses it to do evil. Therefore, we have to distinguish the signature for media and the signature for personal things”
“What all artists do that?” Ask Lea curiously.
“I don't know either, but many do. Already, don't talk much. Quickly work!”
“Yes, alright”
Two hours later...
Lea massaged her wrists with a smile of relief, and prepared to leave the room. However, the sound of knocking on the door distracts Chan as well.
“Let's just put it on the table. Thank you” said Chan to a middle-aged man who had just delivered a serving of rice along with grilled chicken and various additional side dishes. The middle-aged man said goodbye after his task was completed.
“Eat before returning. You must be starving!”
“True, I'm very hungry for not having lunch”
“Who told you to run away in the cafeteria?”
Lea was surprised that Chan realized that he had deliberately avoided her. Smiling embarrassedly, Lea apologized sincerely.
“How do you know if I like roasted chicken?” Ask Lea before eating her food.
“So, do you like roasted chicken?” Instead of answering, Chan asked.
Lea let out a long sigh, “Forget it. Thanks for the food. I'll eat now” He said later.
Chan did not respond to Lea's words, but he smiled to see her enjoying her food.
