S1E5: The War is Begin (Part 1)

I sit on the barstool with my tab in my head. "Morning." She ignores me. Yep, the act last night will become the only one my resume to start a carrier in Hollywood.

I looked at my plate and sighed. "Rose. Can you add..." she puts the pepper next to my plate and stormed off to her room.

Today is my day off. I want to learning coding, but I don't want go to my study room and spending hours there.

I need a fresh air. What about making new videos or editing my stories? Hmm... no. I want to enjoy my time alone and doing it later.

I took a deep breath and eats my chicken salad alone with I observed my employee explaining a monthly report.

I heard stomped coming from upstairs. I took a deep breath and sighed. "I'll call you back." I hang up the call, then brings my plate to the upstairs.

I can't trust my cats will not eat my food. I'm eating while walking upstairs. My morning ruined by her ignores me. Why it's bother me?!

I don't care if she's ignoring me. Why I feel the opposite? She's straight. Don't scared her. I saw her laying on the couch of my break room. Maybe playing a game.

Besides, I should stockpile my videos.

I sat on my armchair and crossed my leg. I watched her closed her face with a pillow, and hearing a muffled scream. Did she possessed or something?!

"Hey." I hummed. She gets up and stared at me. "Have you ever have a weird fantasy before? If you have it. How you dealt with it?" Hm? Oh...

"I... haven't. Why?" I tried not look to obvious. "Are you fantasizing about me?" I put the empty on the drawer and cleared my throat.

She scoffed. "Why would I? Having fantasizing a rude person like you... what's my benefit, duh?" Rude?? Oh come on! I'm not that bad right?

I walked to the mini fridge next to the bookshelf. I opened the fridge and take two bottles of mineral water. "I'm not that bad, right?"

She looks at me. I threw my mineral water at her and she catch it perfectly. "Thanks!" I opened the cap and drinks.

Nothing can beat this morning with a bottle of fresh water and warm meal. I should be grateful for what I had until now. I took a deep breath, looked at her. "No news?"

She shrugged her shoulders. "I don't know. I haven't touch my phone. What about you?"

I shook my head. She sighed and scratching his forehead. "Are you sure... want to buy his company? I heard that company has a lot of trouble and the government also investigate him." She said as she wrinkled.

Well, I want to change my mind, maybe I will do some research about this company and talked to my lawyer. "Do you have... any news to share?" I asked.

She rolled her eyes. "Do you have... social media!?" She furrowed her brow.

" I lost interest in posting anything there." I said. What I scared about is, the journalist.

I rarely understood why journalist likes to write a clickbait title and made useless drama instead a real, unbiasing articles?

"The story began with a girl named Silvia and she's a whistleblower from that company. She assaulted by her male co-workers. That company tried to silenced her. The next we knew... she leaked all the corruptions and everything shady inside their company." This is interesting. Why... he never told me that, huh?

"So.. where's her now?" I cleared my throat.

"She's dead. Without having a justice. All the netizens already knew that the CEO of that company was the culprit behind it." I'm nodding my head. Her explanation was astonishing. The way she talked, laughed, and stubborn made me realize something.

I want to get to know her more. Maybe she feels that way too. "Are you listening!?" I cleared my throat and sighed.

"You said... she allegedly killed by one of the workers there?" She's nodding my head, straightened her posture and continue her story.

"Police can't do anything since... they 'silenced' by the CEO there." I took a deep breath and looked at her. My blood pumping fast, clenched my fist and jaw. How about the family she has?

"Does she... has a family?" She's nodding her head. Argh... the world is unfair for her! I took a deep breath and rubbed my face roughly.

I stood up and picked my plate. It's time to dig deeper. "Where were you going?" She jogs towards me.

Why are you asked? We walked downstairs and heading to the kitchen together. I was wondering what really happened behind the scene of Wardiono's family. Whose are they?

Why my dad seems tied to that family? It's time to expose their 'little dark secret,' right? Or maybe... I could find another way to exposed them? Oh my God. Just imagining it, makes me thrill to the bones.

She tapped my shoulder. We stared into each other eyes. I pulled her closer and sighed. "L-Lobak..."

I pushed her and sighed. Shit. Why I pulled her closer?! Shit.

I can feel my face warm as I recall it. No way! Don't... argh! She can drives me crazy!

"A-are you okay?" I'm looking at her and sighed. We stared to each other eyes again. That innocent chocolate eyes... bewitched me. As I go deeper into her mind, I saw something that prevent me to go deeper.

Maybe... she was the woman who wants to be loved, but how she closed her heart? Does she just same like me? Something happened happened in her past?

I left her in the kitchen and walked to my cat's cage. It's a normal routine for cat person. Rule I should remember is simple. Cat is your king and queen, and you are they peasant. If you treat them well, they will promote you into your slave.

A lot of stereotypes said cats have staff. It's that true? Not, for me and my Felis Catus friends. They are my best friend. They also have emotion same like us. After I played with them, let's we hunt them as my parents haunt me.
