The more Hate, the more Love
Hurt Yourself

Zea was already in her study when she read a message from Omar to go home, inviting Zea to dinner. Zea is convinced that it wasn't dinner that she was asked to come to, but it had something to do with Gavin.

There was a commotion, Zea came out of her room.

“What is this?” ask Zea. Arjuna's body was held captive by Ucup while in Arjuna's presence a man who was a subordinate of Zea who was also in the grip of another Zea co-worker, holding the two back from attacking each other.

“Oh. Sorry Bu Zea, this is just a misunderstanding,” Ucup said.

“Misunderstand but you guys are fighting, you think High School boy. Let go of them and come with me.”

Here they are, in the meeting room. Edo and Arjuna sat opposite Zea. While Ucup was standing behind Arjuna, Zea herself was accompanied by his quite senior subordinates. It turns out that their dispute is due to Arjuna being the center of attention of the women. According to Edo, Arjuna too overstretched charm and disrupt the rhythm of work.

The two had a chance to fight back, Zea massaged her head in disbelief with the underlying thing of their fight.

“Already, you shake hands first. End the dispute, if the problem of women who do not focus on working because they talk about Juna is my business. Let's do it and get back to work.” Arjuna and Edo finally shake hands and they return to their respective activities. 

At lunchtime, Ucup delivers Zea's lunch.

“Juna where?” ask Zea.

“Wah. I'm like other women, who started asking Juna.”

“Not so, I asked him to Juna.”

“Hehe, yes Ma'am. This is him who bought it but I was asked to deliver, he went to the toilet was not able to stand it he said.”

Zea just smiled at Ucup's explanation. Arjuna rushes to the rooftop to contact his assistant at the office. There are issues to be discussed, Arjuna gave directions for a settlement and promised this afternoon would come straight away.

...***...

Zea had arrived at her parents' residence. Greeting Father and Mother, precisely Stepmother Zea and her two complete siblings were at the dinner table.

“Suami where are you Kak?” lea asked Zea's sister.

“Ngot coming, still working like.”

“Still working or cheating,” tease Lea.

“Lea,” reprimand Dad.

Zea ignored the mockery, was used to getting treatment that she thought was far from family harmony. Choosing to fill the plate with the menu on the table, all began to enjoy the dinner.

“You fought with your husband?” ask Omar on his feed.

Zea shook her head, grabbed the glass and drank a few sips. “He threatened Dad?”

“Not threatened, but some shareholders started to withdraw their shares.” The queen replied representing her father.

Zea nodded her head. “I want a divorce.”

The spoon and fork held by Omar apart from his hand heard what his eldest daughter said.

“You must have gone mad, Zea,” taunted the Mother.

“He seems happy to see us fall poor.” Lea also spoke. Only his silent brother did not comment.

“Yes, I'm crazy. It's crazy to keep my marriage with Gavin. You live comfortably because our marriage provides certainty of your business cooperation, but there is no good attitude or sentence I receive from you. While I have been tormented for two years living in a household with that jerk,” Zea said with both eyes already condensed.

Omar just kept quiet listening to Zea's explanation.

“You have a husband, come with your husband instead of poya-foya with Dad's money. All this time it has been enough for you to live well on top of my suffering,” cried Zea to her sister Lea.

“Zea, you ..”

“What? Want to torture me to what extent?” zea interrupted his mother's words.  Even Zea's voice sounded higher.

“Zea, who is polite to you,” rebukes Omar.

“Zea!” peekkik Omar's.

Zea took a tissue and wiped her lips, then stood up. “I've already conveyed my intentions, so you better get ready. Prepare for the worst possible, do not ask me to sacrifice for this family again while you never appreciate me,” Zea said as she held back tears and left without saying goodbye.

“Dad, why shut up. What if Dad's company goes bankrupt, I don't want ya have to live hard,” whine Lea.

“Be quiet Lea, what Zea said is true. He has sacrificed all this time for our happiness.”

“Preferably meet Zea, have her rethink her plan.”

Omar smiled cynically at his wife. “You can say that because Zea is not your biological daughter. How about the Lea that we feed with other entrepreneurs, do you allow?”

“Omar.”

“Dad.”

Pekik wife and daughter Omar in unison.

Brakes.

Omar's youngest son kicked one of the chairs. “What's wrong with you, why even quarrel to choose who should be the victim. Do I have to prepare to be the next koban.”

...***...

Today Zea arrived at the office earlier than usual, not without reason but she avoided meeting with many people because both eyes were still swollen. Since returning home from her parents' home, Zea wept lamenting her fate.

Believing himself that the last night he shed tears of disappointment to his family. The family that was supposed to defend and protect her, but instead made her tormented. Always demanding to do for the sake of the family but not feel the warmth of the family.

Arjuna who also left early because Ucup complained about his attendance hours. Meeting Zea in the elevator, he greeted the woman who was only replied with a smile. Arjuna stared at the appearance of Zea looking down through the elevator wall. Even had a glance and look at Zea's swollen eyes.

His romance has started this war, curious as to where the end of his life story, inner Arjuna with a cynical smile.

“Bu Zea,” call Arjuna stop Zea steps.

“Ya.”

“Do I want to make coffee or tea?”

“Hm. Coffee can, do not be too sweet.”

“Siap, Mom,” said Arjuna while positioning the hand like being respectful.

Exactly ten o'clock, the floor on which Arjuna is in charge of Leo and the Director of Finance. Do the songs and meetings that are also impromptu. In the room there were only three people including Zea, Arjuna joined to bring drinks and prepare what was needed.

“I heard Ms Zea is the new CEO single candidate?” ask the Finance Director in a mocking tone. Arjuna who was turning on the projector had a glance towards Zea.

“It was just bird news, because there has been no official statement from Mr. Abraham,” Zea said.

Leo looked at Arjuna who was glancing at Zea then muttered silently, asking Arjuna to leave the room.

“Entah what competency did Mr. Abraham see from Ms. Zea, or indeed Ms. Zea offers other services. Like the satisfaction service at ...."

“Sorry sir, your recent remarks included verbal abuse.”

“We better start the meeting, Ms. Zea is right that Mr. Abraham has not given an official statement that he is a new CEO candidate,” said Leo then started their meeting.

More than two hours of meetings took place, even when the meeting ended almost all employees were out for lunch. After making sure Leo and the Finance Director had gotten into the elevator, Zea ran into her room. Arjuna followed and stood not far from the door that was not tightly closed. There was a pretty heartbreaking cry.

Why can he be that sad, is not it true that Papi chose him not because he deserves the position of CEO, Arjuna inner.

Prangs!

Arjuna was surprised to hear a voice from inside Zea's room.
