Bridal Stain
Waiting for the Return of Vishnu

"Y-yes right, Miss. Mr. Aryo told you to meet with the client. You see, Mr. Aryo again cannot go out, so you as an assistant and I as a secretary who will represent him" replied Anton.

"But, Mr. Anton, I never wanted to be Mr. Aryo's assistant, let alone take care of a client like this. Never mind, it's better you, I don't want to come."

Anton confusion. "But, Miss, this client is very important, I beg you Miss, help me, I am also confused if I meet him alone. My speaking ability when meeting with clients is nervous, miss."

"But I don't want to, Mr. Anton!"

"Please, Miss Grey, help me, otherwise I will be punished with Mr. Aryo." Anton blazed his face as he clenched his hands together in his chest, pleading expectantly to Grey.

Grey grunts quietly. His mind wanted to keep resisting, but seeing the face of Anton melas, he did not feel the heart. Anton is also new to working here.

Grey breathed out slowly, while throbbing. "Alright, just for this meeting," Grey replied limply.

Anton's face immediately turned happy. The sparkle of his eyes displayed the tempestuous spirit of four five on his chest. "Thank you, Miss Grey, thank you" he said, again inviting Grey into the car.

After 30 minutes of driving, Anton stopped his car in the basement of a building. And along the way, Grey was astonished, because Anton did not explain his full address. Grey is actually a little scared and worried that the unexpected will happen to him.

“Come Miss, I take Miss to see her client,” Anton said, making Grey even more astonished. He asked why he had taken her to an apartment, not a cafe or other open space, but Grey knew, surely Anton will only answer that all this is an order from Aryo.

They both entered the elevator in the basement, Anton pressed the 12th button and after that the elevator closed and drove to the 12th floor.

Upon arriving at the unit's doorstep, Grey is struck by a pretty beautiful sight, leaving himself flabbergasted at the sight he saw before his eyes, for the first time when the unit's door was opened.

A large room full of decorations and marine decors. Blue and beautiful to look at.

“Mari Miss, we sit there,” said Anton, Grey also according to.

The two of them sat on the blue-colored sofa, which was soft and tender. Grey still circulates his gaze throughout the room, making himself wonder what Anton's intention and purpose was to bring him here.

Not long after a man of large stature, over-sized shirt with flowers, with the appearance of his clothes were very striking even his skin was exotic black like an Easterner, came to them both. He named Samuel the owner of this building, one of Aryo's clients.

The two of them immediately stood up from their seats as Samuel drew closer.

“Oh, so you are the woman sent by Mr Aryo?” samuel asked Grey.

Grey nodded while smiling in a friendly manner. “I-iya, Sir,” answered nervously while glancing first at Anton with a confused face.

“Hm, okay too,” his mummy looks at Grey's appearance from top to bottom.

“Yes already, let's go in there,” Samuel said.

Grey nods, pulling up Anton's sleeves, hoping he'll come with him, but the big guy first tells Grey that only Grey can get in, not with Anton.

“T-but ...”

“Already, Miss come along, she's just our client not a bad person,” whispered Anton as he looked at Grey who was a little scared and confused.

With a heavy heart, Grey finally nodded in agreement, then entered a room that was there. The room was quite small, measuring 3x3 meters.

The man named Samuel closed the door of the room tightly, then suddenly he opened his clothes, and, making Grey immediately turned his back to the client while closing his eyes tightly with both hands held in the chest.

"Astagfirullah, sir, what are you doing?" Why are the clothes opened?”

“Hey! I should have asked you why you were being disrespectful to me!”

"W-what? Body logo design?" tanya Grey was nervous and scared.

“How is this Mr. Aryo, sending an incompetent worker like you!” The look on the man's face turned irritated by Grey's attitude.

“M-sorry, Sir. I don't know if your goal is to undress for it,” Grey said regretfully.

“This you, make my mood just crumble!” the tasting made Grey feel even more guilty.

Eventually, Grey apologizes despite having to repeatedly, and the two continue their conversation about their plans and goals. After discussing in the room for 1 hour, Grey also took several photo modes from the body of the man in front of him, as a reference for himself in making the logo desired by the client. And now they both come out of the room. Then approached Anton who was still faithful to sit on the round sofa that corner of the room.

***

Grey dropped his body on the bed, all day in addition to being made emotional he was also made surprised by the behavior of his client last afternoon. He felt this one client was too unique, asking to make a company logo using his sturdy body. But, for the sake of professional work, Grey had to support him.

The twilight clouds, now dark, the sun has sunk in the western horizon. Grey was silent in his room alone, glancing at the wall clock that had been shown at 20:45 p.m.

A shameful shadow between himself and Vishnu, suddenly came back to his mind. He closed his eyes and grabbed his hair slowly with both hands.

He breathed out slowly, in order to remember something that still felt awkward in his heart.

“Why Mas Vishnu has not come home too huh? Does he really want to avoid me after what he did last night?” his murmur throttled his lips feeling sad.

Geck, tok, tok.

The sound of knocking on the door of the room disperse Grey's daydream, he realized then rushed to open the door of the room, and it turned out that Bi Iyam was already standing in front of him.

“Non, it's late at night, Non Grey hasn't eaten yet, do you want to bring his food here?” ask Bi Iyam.

Grey looked confused. “Nevent gone, Bi. Let me go downstairs later. Aunty if you want to sleep, sleep, it's too lazy, it's time to rest,” said Grey, smiling blandly.

“T-but, Non Grey hasn't eaten yet. Bibi is worried that, Miss has not eaten,” she said clearly showing concern in both her sincere eyes twinkle.

Grey took a slow breath. “Ya already, then now I eat down huh. Aunty immediately breaks into the room yes, do not need to prepare food for me, later let me who angetin all his cooking,” said Grey. The gaze that Bi Iyam reciprocated deeply.

After dinner, Grey steps into the front room, flicks the window-draping curtains over the terrace, and peeks inside, hoping for a vehicle to come parked in the yard.

But alas, it had been 15 minutes he waited and stood there, but the signs of the arrival of Vishnu did not appear. Finally with a heavy heart Grey had to step away from there. Turn off the lights and climb up the stairs.

However, he had just set foot on the bottom of the stairs, the roar of the car engine out there, stopped his footsteps and hurriedly turned on the lights and opened the door.

And sure enough, the person he had been waiting for since had already arrived. Vishnu just got out of his car as soon as Grey opened the door.

The man turned to Grey for a moment with a face that suddenly changed, as if lazy.

“Why is he waiting for me there!” gerutu Vishnu with annoyance in the heart.

“Mas, are you home?” grey asked with a sweet smile, as Vishnu walked up to him.

“Hm,” the answer is cold, directly passing Grey just like that. Grey is in his place.

Seriate....
