Gossip In The Office

"Sis Aleysa," called Catline.

"Yes, Sis. Why?"

"Are you sure you want to bring the food to the office for Bro Hans?"

"Loh, why do you ask like that, Sis? Why is that?"

"Aren't you afraid that Bro Hans will be angry with you later there, be humiliated in public? Are Sis Aleysa ready to get that kind of attitude from Bro Hans?"

Catline's question just now was able to make Aleysa pause and think about all her words.

"You can't talk like that Sis. After all, Bro Hans is Brother's husband. And I'm also sure that Bro Hans will not treat Sister like that in the office."

"Okay, maybe Bro Hans won't do that to Sister. But what about Emily? She really hates you because she feels that Sister has taken Bro Hans from her. I just don't want Sister to do anything wrong."

"Sister there's nothing wrong. You don't have to be like that. Sister wants to go to Bro Hans's office first. You're doing well here. Don't throw a tantrum."

"Yes. Be careful big Sister."

"Yes Catline."

It turns out that what has been said at length by Catline is all in vain. Aleysa didn't listen to all of her Sister's words. Aleysa just ignored her. Aleysa went to Hans Office anyway. Because she was sure if she would be fine there. Even though all this time she herself had felt the cold from Hans own attitude.

This afternoon Hans was still in his study. It's time for Office break. But Hans still had some work he had to collect this afternoon. It wasn't long before someone entered his Office.

"Good afternoon, dear."

"Emily."

It turned out that the one who came into Hans study this afternoon was Emily. Emily went straight into Hans study without knocking on the door first. Even Emily sat directly on Hans table teasing him.

"Honey. Surely you haven't had lunch yet because you are busy with our new project. Here, I brought you some food."

"Oh my gosh, honey. You really care about me."

"Oh yes it is clear dear. I really love you."

"I love you too much."

"Well then I will feed you okay."

"Yes dear."

Even Emily had to feed Hans. Hans really didn't think of Aleysa as his wife at home. He still has a special relationship with other women. Which is none other than his own personal secretary in the Office.

When Hans and Emily were alone and making out, suddenly someone entered Hans study. This time it was Aleysa who entered his study. Hans and Emily were surprised by Aleysa's arrival. Emily, who was sitting at Hans's desk, was silent without getting up from her seat. Looks like she did it all on purpose to Aleysa.

"Hans," Aleysa called.

"Aleysa? Why did you come here?" asked Hans in a very cold tone.

"I came here just to give you some food, Hans. You didn't have breakfast, I'm afraid you're going to starve now."

"You don't have to bother coming here just to bring me food like this. I can eat by myself. I'm not a child anymore. Especially here, Emily is always watching over me. See for yourself, right. Now I'm having lunch with Emily and your coming here are just a nuisance."

Emily smiled sarcastically at Aleysa. She felt victorious because she had been defended to death by Hans. Meanwhile, Aleysa had tears streaming down her cheeks again. Then Aleysa immediately wiped her tears pretending to be strong in front of Hans and Emily.

"Fine, if you've eaten lunch. Then I wi go home first. Excuse me."

Aleysa decided to leave Hans' study. Hans did not feel sorry for Aleysa in the slightest for what he had done to Aleysa. Instead, he continued his lunch together with Emily.

"Look for your wife's face really," said Emily.

"Never mind, you don't have to call her my wife. I don't want to hear that."

"Yeah, sorry dear. Well, if that's the case, then continue eating."

"Yes dear."

*******

Outside Hans study, Aleysa was still crying. How can she not cry. Any woman if she was treated like that would definitely cry. It could even make someone angry back at him. Luckily Hans has a wife who is very patient with his cold and emotional attitude.

For some reason, outside all Hans employees in the Office were looking at Aleysa. It turned out that they were talking about Aleysa being a no-no. They all talked about Aleysa being the one who had snatched Hans from Emily.

"That's Mr. Hans's wife, isn't it?"

"Eh, that's right. The girl who took Mr. Hans from Mrs. Emily."

"It's really bad to grab a guy like that. Even though she's beautiful. But her behavior isn't pretty."

"Yes, she did it all because Mr. Hans was rich."

"Yes, yes."

How hurt Aleysa's heart is right now. After getting bad treatment from her own husband, now she is labeled as a bad woman by Hans employees at the Office. Of course, the bad news was deliberately spread by Emily who really didn't like Aleysa. Aleysa immediately ran out of the Office. But Aleysa bumped into someone. And that someone was Hans own Grandmother.

Hans's Grandmother had been following Aleysa for a long time to see if Hans could be nice to Aleysa or not. But Hans's Grandmother actually heard bad news about Aleysa. Hans's Grandmother, who loved Aleysa very much, did not accept it.

"Grandma?"

"Aleysa. Are you okay dear?"

"No. I'm fine, Grandma."

Then Hans's Grandmother went straight to the people who had been talking about Aleysa's no-nonsense. Hans Grandmother was a highly respected person in the Office. When she approached her employees, all of her employees immediately stood up straight facing her Grandmother Hans.

"Eh, you guys don't talk nonsense. That Aleysa didn't take Hans from anyone. Especially from Emily. Are Hans and Emily officially married? Or are they just fiancées? No. So Aleysa isn't wrong.

"I'm sorry, Ma'am. We only heard the news that was hot in the office."

"Don't believe the gossip. It's just gossip. If you hear someone talking about Aleysa like that again, get ready to fire all of you. Respect Aleysa. Because she is the wife of your Boss. Do you understand?"

"Understood, Ma'am," answered all the employees at the same time.
