Syaza stepped into his office that morning with a lethargic face. He can only melt his eyes at 3 o'clock as he looks for appropriate words to say to Najwan when they meet later. While on the trip he had contacted the man to make their appointment and it just so happened that Najwan did want to invite him out to eat because since the bowling game between them first, he said, the man had not had a chance to buy her a meal.
"Again, Shaz ! Let's accompany me to breakfast," asked Daniel, who was suddenly sitting in front of his desk. Syaza nodded then stepped hand in hand with the man towards the elevator.
"Daniel, where did you go on vacation two days ago ? You know what ? I was completely silent when you weren't around ! Usually you're the place where I release the burden when there is a problem at work," said Syaza while bribing his favorite rice-sut berlauk sambal cuttlefish.
"If you feel lonely in my absence, I also miss your face and voice all the time" Daniel replied as he sipped his tea.
Syaza chokes suddenly and then immediately takes Milo ice and siphons it quickly. He saw Daniel laughing at him. His cheeks were red from embarrassment.
"You are, yes, very clever in the chapters to tease people. That's why I said that when you weren't around, I felt very lonely," Syaza said, hiding his reluctance.
"Let's go back to the office ! It's approaching 9 o'clock. Today let me buy you." Syaza waved his hand at the tavern officer and then paid for the food and drink they had eaten earlier. Daniel was forced to let Syaza pay because the girl had already stretched out her money before she could spend it.
Shaza looked at the clock on his wrist. It was heartbroken that today he could spend his time in the office alone. He was busy checking the minutes of the meeting held yesterday. Since this morning Arif has not rebuked him. Syaza felt the man was just sitting inside his room.
"Hoi, Lord Arif's mood is not good today ! I got mad at him earlier when I gave him the sales report."
"I got angry too, he said I was too mishandling my duties. The letter he was told to send quickly but it was too late until he said."
"He's possessed by a demon like him !"
"I also feel like it, joking between nations."
Syaza laughs at the words of his coworkers who talk to their neighbors. Many things they cursed Mr. Arif but only behind them dared to curse. If in front, slam.
His feet walked to the mosque behind the office to perform Dzuhur prayers and rest him all. His stomach still full makes him refuse Daniel's invitation to go out to lunch together.
"Geez, how nice he is to rest here. Arif you're running amok inside the office right now ! Everyone is surprised. You're his assistant, go see !" Syaza who had just fallen asleep after finishing the Dzuhur prayer gasped for air when his shoulders were firmly patted. He was surprised by what Amira said. (Mr Arif is raging ? Like not believing !) His heart. He rushed out of the mushola.
"Where is Syaza ? I told you to find him, right ? It's over time for the afternoon break still haven't returned to the office either ! He thinks this office belongs to his parents ? If he comes back, tell him to see you. Understand !"
Shaza stands behind a wall that separates the office space from the canteen. He was shocked when he heard the words coming out of his boss' mouth. He hid there while waiting for the man to enter his room again.
"Hah, also appeared you finally ! We're all here to be angry... All because of you. Now you go to face the lion ! Pray that you will not be swallowed up by him" Aliah insinuated. Syaza felt that everything there was looking at him with an annoyed look. He walked slowly towards the boss's room. His hand knocked on the door of the room slowly.
"Lock !" His heart was racing hearing the direction of the man's rough voice.
"Mr Arif, said Aliah you want to see me ?" Tanya Syaza was careful. He felt that the man had a serious face while researching the file in front of him.
"You know, Shaza ! Because of your mistake we've missed one big project !" Syaza was surprised by his boss's clasping. During her time working as an assistant manbdi of Arif, this was the first time she had been so violently yelled at.
"What's my fault, Mr Arif ? Which project ?" Ask Shaza slowly.
"Young but senile ? You see for yourself what you wrote in this file !" Arif said while throwing a file at the girl in front of him.
"Why do you write another price than I ask ? Such easy work is even sloppy. This is the assistant that my mama praised ?" Syaza held his heart with the man's insinuation.
"I wrote as you wrote on the paper you gave me at the time, Mr Arif ?" Syaza defended himself. He knew he was not wrong because he was just following what the man was writing and directing.
"You mean, it's all my fault ? What do you mean, Syaza !" Arif snapping. His heart was hot with the girl's words.
"I'll show you the paper you love to me if you don't believe me, Mr. Arif. Wait a minute !"
Shaza rushed out. He took a piece of paper neatly stored in a file that read "private adn confidential". Syaza sat for a moment on the chair while holding a powerful throbbing forehead. His hand felt a slightly dizzy forehead. His head was suddenly dizzy then he immediately looked for the wind oil located inside the bag.
"Where is this oil ?" Syaza grumbled slowly. While enduring the headache, Syaza returned to his boss' room while carrying the important paper.
"This is the paper, Mr. Arif !"
Arif researched the paper given by Syaza. (O Allah ! It was my mistake !) Arif complained in his heart.
"Mr Arif, can I go out now ? There's a lot of work waiting outside of that. If it is not resolved, you will get angry again. Lah yeah... This office does not have my father's mother" Syaza said as he walked out. His sore head was getting stronger. His hands slowly incline the painful head while walking quickly to the bathroom. He wanted to see how big the wound was on his forehead.
Arif was amazed to hear the words that came out of Syaza's mouth earlier. She felt the girl engrossed in holding her forehead as she walked into her room for the second time. The girl's face looked wrinkled and pale.
"Huh ! The file I threw earlier did it hit him on the forehead ? Looks like he had a forehead wound earlier ?" Arif guessing himself. Arif kept stepping out of his room. Shaza is not in his seat.
"Aliah, where's Syaza going ?" Ask the welcoming girl who was looking at him with an anxious look. Arif really wanted to calm Aliah's fear to him after everyone was snapped earlier, but it was all stuck in his throat.
"He's going to the back, Mr. Arif. To the toilet like ?" Clearly the girl was scared as she looked at him in wonder.
The feeling of wanting to know what happened with Syaza made Arif walk quickly to the back. As he crossed the canteen, he saw Syaza was putting something on his forehead. Arif stopped behind the door while looking at the treatment of the girl. Sometimes he heard Syaza complain a little when putting the thing he was holding onto his forehead. Arif was very surprised when the girl looked down.
"Oh my God, what have I done ?" He complained of annoyance. Due to his own mistakes, the girl fell prey to his anger.
"Shaza... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you like this !" The rebuke from the man who appeared suddenly behind her made Syaza startled. He said to turn towards the voice because he did not want the man to see the small wound on his forehead.
"Let me take you to the clinic. This wound must be treated, if left will be swollen later. Later it gets worse," persuaded Arif while turning Syaza's body to face him. He felt the girl refuse from looking at him.
Arif shone the strands of hair that covered the wound on Syaza's forehead. Feelings of annoyance and guilt arise repeatedly when seeing the impression of his abusive actions against the hadith.
"I'm waiting for you downstairs. We go to the clinic. You don't argue. Hurry up a little !" Arif walked away leaving Syaza dumbfounded at his direction.
Syaza covered his wound with his hair. He was forced to follow the direction of his boss because the man was already waiting for him downstairs.
Arif glanced at the girl sitting next to him. All the way home from the clinic, they just kept quiet. Arif knows he is guilty and he has repeatedly apologized to the girl, but Syaza only mute a thousand languages. He was grateful that the wound on Syaza's forehead would not leave a mark as told by the doctor at the clinic earlier. He knew if that happened, he would not be calm for the rest of his life.
"Mr Arif, you don't have to worry ! I'm not going to tell anyone what happened," Syaza spoke slowly as they walked out of the elevator. Syaza felt all eyes looking at them with question marks. He walked towards his desk, while Arif stepped continuously into his room.
