An Offer

"I guarantee you, you will get promising benefits."

Ellyan narrowed her eyes, staring at Seira, her bestfriend who was now staring at Ellyan with reassuring eyes.

"No,"

"I'm not that crazy to agree to your offer." Ellyan grumbled, turning her gaze towards the road which was super busy.

Ellyan didn't understand Seira's thoughts at all. Suddenly her best friend came and immediately offered her a crazy idea that had succeeded in giving Ellyan a headache.

Be a spy!

That's what Seira offered Ellyan. Strange offer, right?. Yes, very strange, to the point that Ellyan thought maybe her ears had been disturbed and had misheard.

"Come on Els, I'm sure you can do it."

Seira did not give up at all, continued to persuade Ellyan while blinking her eyes occasionally, it meant teasing, but instead she was like someone who get the dust in her eyes.

Ellyan rolled her eyes,

"You're really crazy !."

"Even for 1 second, I will definitely get caught."

Said Ellyan, annoyed.

"I told you that your safety is guaranteed. You don't need to be afraid, Els. "

Seira said, continuing to persuade Ellyan who was still unfazed.

How could Ellyan agreed to Seira's offer?. After all, the person she is going to spy is not an ordinary person.

Whose Ellyan will spy on is Arden, a singer whose songs have topped the international music charts.

A handsome and firm face, full of masculine and elegant impressions. In contrast to his skyrocketing popularity, Arden's personal life is very closed. Almost no one knows about Arden himself, even just his favorite food.

Arden never wants to appear on television, his concerts are held behind closed doors. Moreover, accepting an interview offer, impossible!. Arden seems to be allergic to the spotlight on cameras and journalists.

For this reason, Arden is often called as "Voice of the Devil".

"But, you know the bad rumors circulating about Arden." Ellyan said, still insisting on rejecting Seira's offer.

Yes, the main reason Ellyan turned down Seira's offer was because of the bad rumors surrounding Arden.

There are rumors that Arden is indeed a demon, according to his nickname. A devil who mercilessly finishes off anyone who dares to disturb him.

It is not without reason that the rumors circulated, because there were many reports that reported the disappearance of journalists who were trying to investigate Arden.

The last one is a well-known female journalist named Telissa, who disappeared without a trace after releasing news about Arden's private life.

"These are all just rumors, Ells, believe me," Seira was still persuading Ellyan. He then leaned over, whispered something into Ellyan's ear,

"If you accept my offer, I guarantee the drama script that you make will air on the screen."

Seira raised her eyebrows, making Ellyan, who had been clinging to her opinion, wavered.

Seira's offer was the most tantalizing offer for Ellyan. If Seira had offered her money or something else, Ellyan would have refused.

However, Seira offers something related to Ellyan's dream. Since long time ago, Ellyan had always dreamed of becoming a professional screenwriter.

Even though, because of his father's actions were too kind to guarantee his friend when he borrowed money from the bank, then run away, Ellyan had to give up her dream and work hard to pay off her family's debt.

As if it was not enough to shake Ellyan's determination, Seira whispered again with spoiled voice,

"plus, you will also get paid a lot. You can even pay off your family debt and get back to your education. Trust me Ells, you won't regret it. "

And, crack!!!..

Ellyan's defense collapsed, she finally nodded, agreeing to Seira's offer.

***

Ellyan swallowed hard, looked up at the skyscrapers towering in front of her.

Her mind drifted back to the ridiculous thing she did with Siera yesterday.

"You just need to gather all information in this book, then you'll see, all of your dreams will come true."

Ellyan's eyes stared at the book she is holding now, as a diversion from the nervousness that was starting to take over her heart.

Ellyan had read the entire book, and almost all of them contained trivial matters. Like, what Arden's favorite foods are, what he does on weekends, even ... sorry, the size of his underwear.

Ellyan can bet that the people behind this plan are kids of millionaires who have so much money that they are confused about how to spend their money.

Until this morning, Ellyan still didn't believe in the truth of the reward that Seira was going to give. But, the notification from Ellyan's account broke everything.

As soon as she woke up, Ellyan saw an incoming notification that she had sent a large amount of money to her account. Sufficient nominal to cover the cost of living for her family for 1 month.

"Come on, Ells, you can do it."

Ellyan murmured softly, punching the air to gather her spirit which had been overpowered by nervousness.

Ellyan then continued her steps, entering the skyscraper which according to information from Seira is the building where Amore, someone who will help connect Ellyan with Arden is located.

The building lobby looks so deserted and so quiet. Ellyan checks the address paper Seira gave her.

It was just right, the address Seira gave was indeed where this building was located.

"Hey kids, are you lost?"

A woman's voice suddenly made Ellyan turn her body.

In front of Ellyan now stood a tall woman with thin glasses framing her sharp eyes. For some reason, the shape of her eyes was very strange. It's hard to say it with words, but that woman have type of eyes that Ellyan had never met before. And for some reason, made the hair on Ellyan's neck stand up.

"Hey kid?, Hei.."

"Well, how come the children got lost here? Where are your parents?"

Asked the woman again.

Hearing the second's question immediately eliminated Ellyan's trance. This time Ellyan pursed her lips, fully aware that woman thought of Ellyan as a child. Ellyan cleared her throat,

"Sorry beforehand, I am a grown woman and I am not lost."

Said Ellyan with earnest eyes.

This is one thing that Ellyan hates the most in her life, being considered as a child. Maybe because Ellyan's small posture and baby face make many people think Ellyan is still in junior high school.

The woman widened her eyes in surprise, then lowered her head, with a face full of regret,

"Ah, I'm sorry. I should have guessed your age, just from your smell, "

The woman suddenly stroked her chin, muttering softly,

"Hem, why can't I smell her age at all?"

Ellyan furrowed her brows, confused by the woman's words just now,

"Sorry?."

"Ah, no, no,"

The woman shook her head with a smile,

"I apologized for thinking you are a child."

Ellyan nodded her head, accepting the woman's apology. After all, Ellyan is often considered as a child, so Ellyan is used to it.

"Ah yes, what are you doing here?"

Asked the woman, tilting her head,

"Usually not just anyone can set foot here."

Hearing that woman's words, made Ellyan's heart immediately beat fast. Well, right? It looks like the offer Seira made is truly a dangerous offer.

Even though Seira has repeatedly said that this is a very easy task. After all, how could an easy task have this much reward?.

Arggh, Ellyan must have gone crazy when he accepted Seira's offer.

"Hey."

The woman waved her hand in front of Ellyan's face. Quickly Ellyan cleared her throat, calmed her feelings then answered, "Ah, I came here because I wanted to meet someone,"

Ellyan then reached into her pants pocket, and handed over Amore's business card that Seira gives to her.

The woman reached for the name card Ellyan held out. Upon receiving the name card, the woman's face immediately turned cold.

"Ah, so its you,"

She said, then threw the name card randomly at Ellyan.

She then turned around and started walking, "Follow me."

Only those brief words the woman spoke.

Ellyan, who did not understand the woman's change at all, started walking hurriedly, following her fast steps.

Even Ellyan almost fell because she tripped over her feet. The woman didn't even bother checking Ellyan's condition or even glancing. It's just that, faintly Ellyan could hear the woman say,

"Such an unsatisfied human, poor girl, I'm sure she'll regret it when she finds out what will happen to her after this."

Then the woman glanced at Ellyan a little, a sad look mixed with frustration clearly visible in her eyes . .
