Boss's Account

"Phokk!"

The voice of the club driver hit the ball.

Sunny morning at Wonder Golf Club not far from downtown in the big city of Argent.

Jason narrowed his eyes to see where the little ball fell. He hadn't held his clubs for a long time and felt like his hands were starting to get stiff.

His grandfather, Chief Commissioner Ian Garber, is currently conducting business negotiations with international businessmen. The elderly man, known as Farhan Riyadh, appears to be someone of significant stature. He is a wealthy businessman who will serve as his grandfather's gateway into the country's market. This is why Jason frequently shuttles back and forth for meetings and other crucial matters. It's exhausting, but his grandfather always emphasizes that if this were to become his responsibility in the future, he must take it more seriously this time.

The old man brought his very beautiful and talented daughter, who was great at golf, with him. Jason felt embarrassed as he realized he had lost two pars to her. He glanced at the girl, Juwita, who was smiling sweetly at him.

"Hey hehe"

Not long afterward at Selter on to the ninth hole.

Mr. Garber grabbed a drink bottle handed over to him by his assistant, Mr. Tyus, who had also been with him since morning. Jason approached.

"Grandpa, it's already afternoon, I have a lunch appointment with my staff."

Mr. Garber glanced at his grandson for a moment, then unexpectedly hit him on the head.

"Aww, really, gramps?" groaned Jason. He didn't dare to protest anymore when he saw his grandfather's fierce face. The old man enjoyed hitting him, he could only feel his head, which might have a slight bump.

"What event is this? What event is lunch? Can't you compare which is more important? Besides, you're making me embarrassed, earlier I told him that my grandson, the most handsome in the world, is very good at playing golf, but instead, he lost to his daughter. Make me become a laughing stock," Jason's face twisted, while Mr. Tyus secretly covered his mouth because he couldn't hold back his amused smile.

"Grandpa knows that I'm so busy at the office, there's no time to play golf. What's this sport anyway? It takes up all day like I don't have anything else to do?"

"This is good for business relations. Tyus, sign Jason's name for membership, just watch out if he ditches off"

Tyus nodded.

"Yes, sir"

Jason still had a sour face, occasionally looking at his phone. He had an appointment to have lunch with Valiant and the others because the project they were working on was successful, but it looked like he couldn't come.

"Heh"

….…

At one of the hotpot restaurants uptown.

"Let's warm it up!" Alex exclaimed,

The field team, Val, Anwar, and Alex were already sitting at one of the tables near the window. Even though the air outside is still bright, Val and the others have long wanted to eat hotpot, and today is on Boss's account.

Alex and Anwar were busy putting meat and other things into the grill pan, Anwar poked Val's arm who had been looking at his phone.

"Eh Val, why are you just staring, come on, get your food, your plate is still empty."

Alex glanced at Val.

"Boss isn't here yet? Aren't you two in the same apartment?"

Val nodded, put down his phone, and started cooking.

"Yeah, but the boss was on his way this morning, he had an appointment to play golf with the big boss, and it looks like he can't come with us to eat."

Anwar stopped his hand movements and glanced at his two colleagues with big eyes.

"Well, then what about this? It's still on boss, right?"

Val raised his eyebrows and reached into his trouser pocket.

"Of course, the boss is here!" He took out a shiny black card and placed it on the table.

"Wow, you could, Val!" Exclaimed Alex and Anwar who were immediately relieved, otherwise they would have to pay for the food they had already ordered.

"Yeah, Boss said, we can have whatever we like, let's eat lots of it!" Val exclaimed.

"As many as we like, yu huu!"

 ....

The air outside changed rapidly.

From the glass window that filled half the wall of Jason's office, the view outside was limitless.

The sky slowly darkened, until the rain quickly fell unstoppably, the raindrops hit the glass and after a while made everything wet. Not a single sound could be heard from inside the room but seeing the raindrops falling as if he could feel the cold air that was now creeping in quickly. That was the moment when the cup of black coffee that the office staff had just made before leaving work became very delicious.

"Ting Ting!"

There is an incoming message notification on his phone.

Jason approached his desk, sat back behind the chair, and read the messages on his cell phone.

He smiled, and Val's face appeared on the office group messaging service, today he was so busy that he hadn't seen Val since morning at the apartment and the office.

Several photos that Val sent as proof of their lunch last weekend.

"Mission accomplished!" Val exclaimed in the message.

With a big smile, Jason typed his message.

"This month's bill is swelling, it will be cut from your salary, okay?"

Not long after, messages popped in, from Alex and Anwar, who seemed to be protesting.

"Wow, we were trapped, guys!" Alex exclaimed.

"Boss, the one who ate the most was Val, let Val pay, I'm off now, bye!" Anwar exclaimed, followed by a funny emoticon.

"Eh, Anwar, watch out," exclaimed Val.

Jason didn't stop smiling, those young people, were very enthusiastic and funny.

"He"

 ...

Fena stood in front of the apartment door. Jason, who had just gotten out of the elevator, frowned, why was the girl just standing there? he thought.

"Fena? Why don't you just come in?" Jason asked.

"Hey Jason, it looks like there's no one inside, I've been knocking, but no one answered."

Jason took out the passkey and widened the door.

"Iyan said he had some business to do so he came home a bit late, but as for Val, he's been home from work since this afternoon, he said he's off for a while, he's not back yet?"

Not long after, Fena was sitting on the sofa in the living room, deciding to just wait for Val.

Jason just turned his phone off.

"Um, that's strange, the phone is not active, where is he? It's almost evening too."

Jason then sat in front of Fena.

Not long after, the two of them were chatting happily in the apartment. Jason had sent a message to Val's number and he had not replied.

"Of course, we are close, since kid, Val has been so quiet kid, almost no children want to play with him. He doesn't talk and can only panic if he hears loud noises and suddenly screams for no reason. Because I'm the oldest among the other kids, I look after them without exception and one of them is Val. The poor kid can't let me go, follows me wherever I go."

"That's strange because, at the office, Val is a very sweet and sociable child, with a sweet mouth and good at taking heart. He is the center of attention of the other employees, I get dizzy every time Val has to do work and everyone asks to come with him, he"

"Val is, wonderful, he is very kind, he has been like that since he was little. He can do anything that other people can't think of, smart, gentle, polite, he, in all, Val, is perfect" Fena started to get serious.
