Don't Dispute

"Ghe, can you come to my room for a moment?" Malik asked over the intercom. What can Ghea do if Malik has asked her to do something other than say yes? 

"Okay, Sir," answered Ghea before the connection was decided unilaterally by Malik.

Without thinking and asking a lot of questions, Ghea then brought her long legs to Malik's room which was right next to his room.

Malik's room door opened when Ghea got permission from the master.

"Sit down, Ghe!" Again and again, Ghea could only do what Malik said without hurling the slightest rebuttal to the man who was currently sitting in his oversized chair.

Now Ghea and Malik are sitting across from each other across the desk, but Malik is still silent, he doesn't even open his mouth until finally, "What are you calling me for, huh?" Malik didn't ask Ghea not to talk casually like a few moments ago because she is a person who really upholds a work professional, who knows until when it's only she who knows. 

Malik didn't answer, but one hand reached out to open his desk drawer. He then grabbed the car keys and also the latest smartphone. One of Ghea's eyebrows rose when she saw what Malik was thrusting at her. 

"This for you." Ghea did not necessarily accept what Malik offered her. No, until there is clarity on this.

"But what is this for, sir?" asked Ghea who prefers a debate path as long as all this has an important explanation.

"For you." Malik replied curtly and that should have been more than enough to provoke Ghea's emotions.

But Ghea realized who the man in front of her was right now. No matter how unclear Malik is at the moment, Ghea cannot lose control over herself.

"Car keys and cellphones, as well as health insurance, these are all for Ghea Laurensia."

"I wouldn't have accepted it if it wasn't clear what I was getting it for. I haven't even been a week working here. Isn't this too much?" Malik had predicted that Ghea was someone who wouldn't be able to accept this without complicating things.

"There is nothing excessive in this, Ghe. As long as you know, Akbar and Suci are even more than you. We don't need to talk about Akbar, just talk about Suci. She is even more than everything, not only he who gets all-round facilities in This office. But also Mentari, he was splashed with the luxurious facilities that the Firm provided. You received it on the second day you worked, while Suci she got it at this time, she just signed a contract here."

Malik paused slightly at what he had just said, not because there was anything wrong with him, but because he wanted Ghea to understand what he was explaining. 

"So stop feeling special, because you're not a martabak. There's no exaggeration for everything that's going on right now."

DEG!

Only a few moments ago Ghea felt made so special by the figure of a Malik Bagaskara. It turned out that in the end he was flown in to be dropped blindly.

"I don't like the so-called rejection, Ghea Laurensia." Malik put emphasis at the end of the words spoken to Ghea.

So that Ghea felt that she had no other choice but to obey her boss's wishes.

"Okay sir." With shaking hands, Ghea finally accepted what Malik gave her, without any objections at all.

"I have filled in my number on the cellphone. And it should be emphasized that only my number can be there and also call you." Ghea's throat skin seemed to move up and down very roughly, of course it did not escape the reach of Malik's two beads.

But for now he chose to just play pretty. He should not be careless, lest his behavior would make Ghea uncomfortable with him. Actually he really wanted to object, but he realized at this Firm he was just a crumb of crumbs, which was not Malik's favourite. Ghea is self-aware enough for that. 

"You understand, Ghe?" Malik asked perhaps, this question would be the end of their conversation. Or maybe there are other deals that will follow.

Only Malik knows about it. Because the truth is we won't know what other people are thinking, even when the person himself explains it.

"Yes, sir. I understand." Malik only showed a flat face when he heard what Ghea just said.

"Good, then can we change the topic to the next one?" One of Ghea's eyebrows seemed to be raised sideways.

"Change topic?" Ghea muttered but only in her heart, she didn't implement it through words. Her guts weren't big enough to question that directly.

"What do you mean? asked Ghea who failed to understand what was going on in the mind of the man in front of her right now. Malik was too complicated for Ghea to simplify.

"Are you willing or not?" Such an ambiguous question for her to answer easily. Only yes or no? But it is very difficult for Ghea to give an answer to it.

"Ghea, I really hate it if I have to repeat what my question is for over and over again." Ghea was silenced by what Malik just said. 

"It's up to you," replied Ghea in a voice that sounded very awkward. 

"Tomorrow you come early in the day to prepare everything I need including my breakfast." Hearing what Malik said suddenly made Ghea's lower jaw open very wide. She didn't want to believe what Malik was saying but unfortunately for now both senses were closed. 

Ghea's warranty still works very well. Ghea really wanted to say no this time, but it seemed it was too late for her to change her mind at this point. It was not an easy thing for him to do. She was already caught in the pattern of the game that had been set by Malik. 

"Any questions?" The two words that came out of Malik's mouth really wanted to make Ghea swear at him. But sadly that could only be said in his heart.

Ghea's guts are still too small, one little bit she immediately got a kick from this place.

"No, I got this job with great difficulty. It's not an easy thing to lobby Suci, let alone Akbar." Ghea thought. But what would it be like if he found out that just by mentioning his name, he was immediately accepted to work at this firm.

Without a long process that accompanies it? Unfortunately it is still a secret of the higher-ups of this Firm. Yes, the only ones who know are Malik Bagaskara, Suci Indah Lestari, and also Akbar Maulana Bagaskara. 

"Don't think about salary. Because what you are about to do is not an easy job, so from your current salary I will be doubled." The reluctance to believe now welled up in Ghea again when she heard what Malik had to say.

Why at this moment Malik was so fond of giving her such an immeasurable surprise. She was very happy just being accepted to work, especially if she had to get a salary as well as the facilities that were all waw.

Ghea doesn't know which kind of kindness this time, the universe is responding to. But despite all that she was very lucky.
