Secretary Charm
Chapter 17 Sudden Attention

Alle sat herself on the sofa, taking a deep breath to relax her body. Facing the in-laws who had not liked him in the past always made Alle need extra patience.

"They're home, All?" Ma'am Imas appeared from inside.

"Already, Ma'am."

Mom sat on the sofa. Next to Alle. "Sorry, All. I can't stop them from meeting Chilla, because they insist that they are Chilla's grandparents."

"Not what, Ma'am. Anyway, even if it's not today, they'll come again on another day."

"Did they have the same goal as Fadil?" Yesterday Alle had told Mbak Imas about the intention of the arrival of her ex-husband.

Alle nodded lethargicly.

"I can't be sure they don't have that shame. Where they used to go. Now it suddenly comes and wants to ask for custody of Chilla." Mbak Imas growled himself considering the behavior of Fadil and his family.

"Here you are, later it will be more dizzy if you think about my problems." Alle smiled as if she was being funny which Mbak Imas replied with a grin.

"Chilla's sleeping yet?" continued.

"Not yet, still doing the job."

"Yes already, Ms. Imas just go home, right, there is already me. Let me teach Chilla how to learn. I'm afraid Dito is angry again." Alle knew, not long ago the husband and wife was better so Alle had to know herself too. As soon as he returned home he immediately told Ms. Imas to come home as well. So that her husband does not feel neglected.

After Ms. Imas resigned, Alle immediately locked the door. He approached Chilla who was seriously completing her schoolwork.

"It's over?" Alle sat next to Chilla while rubbing her daughter's jet-black hair.

"A little while, Ma." Chilla showed the unfinished part to her mother. "Grandma's still around, isn't she, Ma?"

Alle shakes. "Home home, baby."

"Well, isn't Chilla salim yet, how come you're home?"

"Grandmother does not want to disturb you who are studying. So they were just saying hello to Chilla. He said, may Chilla be a sholeha and pinter child."

Chilla smiled happily at the message from her grandparents.

Remembering the greeting, Aksa also sent a greeting to Chilla. "Honey, Om Aksa said hello to Chilla."

Chilla was a little confused. Don't know who Om Aksa meant by his mother.

Knowing of her daughter's confusion, Alle explained. "Om Aksa, Om the boss who used to take chilla in the hospital, who sent a lot of gifts for Chilla."

"Oh, that one." Chilla muttered with a smile when her memory found the figure of Om Bos.

"Send greetings from Chilla as well. Next time Chilla wants to play with a doll."

"What?" Alle was a little surprised.

"Yes, it's Om the boss who gives cooking gifts does not want to be played together."

"Om the boss is too busy baby to let you play."

"Yeah ...." Chilla snorted languidly. "Budhe Imas is also home?" ask Chilla.

Chilla nodded in understanding.

"Yes, Chilla finished her studies first, yeah. Mama's gonna take a shower, we're gonna eat."

Chilla linked her thumb and index finger to form an 'ok' sign'.

As promised after Alle took a bath, he took Chilla to eat, then played a little with the boy and read the story before going to bed.

Chilla's eyes slowly closed in her mother's lap. Alle continues to rub the child's head just wayangnya.

"Mama promise, mama will continue to fight to be able to take care of you. Although Mama can not give luxury but Mama will try to make you happy" said Alle.

He looked at Chilla's face. The sinless little face he gave birth to was full of struggle six years ago.

"Dear Mama Chilla" Alle told Chilla, who could not have heard.

As Alle's thoughts wandered about her future with Chilla, the ringing of her phone jolted Alle.

He immediately moved Chilla's head in her lap onto the pillow. He kissed the boy on the forehead before picking up the phone on the dresser.

Looking at the name on the screen, Alle was a little shocked. However, he immediately shifted the green icon on the flat object's screen.

"Hello, good night, sir," said Alle.

After getting a reply from there Alle again asked, "What's wrong, sir. How about a phone call tonight?"

Anywhere there, Aksa confusedly answered Alle's question. Yeah .. who called Alle tonight is his own boss. Earth Character.

"Sorry, what do you mean, huh?" alle asked confused by her boss's question. Alle did not hear wrong, right, if Aksa still asked the same thing as this afternoon. Does Alle want to tell her about her problem, because Aksa will listen with pleasure.

"Sir, I'm fine. There are no serious problems either. You don't have to worry about me."

It seems that the man across the street is not satisfied with his secretary's answer, so the man keeps asking and assuring that Alle can tell the boss the problem. Even Aksa also said there was no need to hesitate.

"Thank you once again, but I'm absolutely fine, sir. I don't have a problem I have to tell you about" Alle refused.

"It's night, sir we should sleep, tomorrow we have a lot of work to do" concluded Alle.

After saying goodbye, Alle closed the call from her boss. Alle kept staring at her phone screen. Never thought if Aksa, the boss who used to always make Alle feel tormented by the amount of work that was given up, suddenly became a caring boss.

Over the years of working with the man, not once did Aksa ever ask about his daughter's name. Although Alle once called it must have forgotten the man, but a few days ago when Chilla was sick suddenly the man came to visit.

And now, there's no wind of no rain the boss calls him at night just to ask him about the problem Alle's in. What's up with all this?

Alle's gaze shifted from the mobile phone and turned to Chilla who was lying on the bed. It is undeniable that Alle's mind is currently filled with problems about the arrival of her ex-husband and also her ex-in-law.

Alle was also afraid of the words of Fadil who wanted to claim custody of Chilla. However, Fadil has rights because the man is the father of his daughter.

Another thing that scared Alle was that Fadil had the money to pay a great lawyer to win the case if it was true that he would be brought back to the green table. While Alle, despite having savings will certainly not be able to pay a great lawyer with expensive fees.

Alle seemed to bear the burden of her own problems because she could not share it with anyone including her boss. After all what their status is until Alle has to tell her personal problems. It felt unethical, even though his own boss was asking. At least as long as Alle could solve her own problem she did not want to trouble others.
