Behind this door is a nice interior, like a room in a 5-star apartment. Inside is so bright from a few lights, even the floor looks clean. There are three doors in it, possibly a bedroom, bathroom, and toilet.
For the dining room to be one with the kitchen, and next to it, a little far away, there is a sofa and a television in front of it. The windows are so big that you can see a corner view of the city from here.
This room is completely different from my room, my room only consists of: a single bedroom with a living room, no dining table, bathroom, toilet, and kitchen. This makes me have to bite my fingers to know the difference. Even so, I'm not overly jealous of the difference.
But strangely, her absence, even when I opened the refrigerator, no one was angry with me for drinking cold water without permission.
"Ah, fresh." I put the bottle back and closed the refrigerator.
My father once said, "The workplace is a second home!" Therefore, I consider it like my own home. After all, I've been on the being of this company for a long time, so that shouldn't be a problem, right?
For a moment, I went to the toilet briefly to defecate.
After exiting the toilet, I focused on my aim here and looked for her in each room.
"Hello… where are you?"
I searched from behind the television, kitchen, bathroom, behind the sofa, to look outside the window, but could not find it.
"Where is she?" Suddenly my eyes were fixed on a door that I had not yet entered, that door was none other than her bedroom, maybe. "Could it be… she was there?"
It's not that I'm impudent as a human being, it's just that this is my position at stake in this momentum, if I don't enter then I'll regret it someday. As the saying goes, "Where you stand, there your feet are under!" As it turned out, those words came from my father's mouth, so they weren't from proverbs.
"Excuse me…." I opened the door slowly, slowly, until it finally opened and my eyes fell directly to the bed. "Finally… found it too."
What I saw was the bed that a woman was sleeping on, my boss, who was still wearing her official uniform, and her head was wearing a… helmet? That's right, a helmet, to be more precise, an ERVION helmet. My boss was lying on the bed and fell asleep wearing the helmet.
The helmet has a cable that leads somewhere, the computer. Next to the bed, not far away, there is a table that is used to put a computer monitor, keyboard, mouse, remote, and others.
Curious about what she was doing on her computer, I approached her computer, but before that, I took off my sweater to cover her legs which only used stockings and a skirt.
"If you play games… remember her too," I said, covering her skirt with my sweater, and walking over to the computer. "So now, what are you playing — let me see."
I sat on the soft chair, which was in front of the computer, and looked at the monitor screen.
"It turns out… this game."
My boss is playing a game called, "ENTER OF ADVENTURE", I know that game. Since the ERVION Helmet is connected to the computer, and it is a requirement to play, I can see what she is doing on this monitor screen even if only from her character's point of view.
On the monitor, what the character was looking at, I saw a place like a modern bar with a hologram screen on it, and my boss was sitting on a long sofa that was shaped like a "U", and beside her was a table and another player.
Being a little curious about the sound in the game, I took out the earphones from my pocket and connected that to the computer in the front hole because the back hole was already filled with cables from the helmet.
I put it in my ear and started hearing a noise. The bar was quite busy, and most of them were focused on watching the hologram screen. It seemed, if my hunch was right, there was a battle event in the game and it was starting, so they all watched together.
Inside the hologram, the two men who hosted the show, a boy and a girl, suddenly appeared.
"Yes, what do you think, Miranda? We know that this is the first time an inter-Southeast Asian tournament has been held, and the Bengawan Club is the only representative from Indonesia. What do you think?" said the male host.
"Yes, Coki, that's right what you said. Since the League One competition was held in Indonesia one year ago, only the Bengawan club was able to be at the top of the standings and take part in this tournament, thanks to the number one player in Indonesia, Dark69, who brought the Club. Bengawan is the greatest in Indonesia. And he said, Dark69 will show his face in this tournament," said the female host.
"I can't wait, Miranda, to see the face of the number one player in Indonesia, Dark69."
"Yes, me too, Coki. Club Bengawan from Indonesia and club Uthai from Thailand will be the opening match in the match later in the AEOAC Tournament."
When the camera focused on the big stage, I realized that this was not a fighting event, but an esports tournament.
"Woah, lots of people watching," I said, amazed by the stage before a player beside my boss spoke:
"Dark69 huh…."
"What is wrong?" my boss asked.
"No, nothing."
Somehow when I heard the voice from that player, my ears seemed familiar with the sound. His voice was male, it's just that my boss kept staring at the hologram screen and didn't look at him, so I couldn't see his character.
After the two hosts talked nonsense, a crowd of people wearing the same uniforms came and walked onto the stage. There were five of them, one of whom wore a mask, and wore blue uniforms with simple motifs.
After a while, a crowd of the same number came and walked onto the stage, wearing red and black uniforms with simple motifs as well.
"Here it is…" the male host looked excited, even standing up from his chair, "the one you've been waiting for. Soon, Bengawan's match against Uthai will start, but before that… wait after the following advertisements."
"Hah?" my boss said before the holographic screen displayed the ad.
"Mother, I'm hungry…."
"Mother too, Son, but we have no money, your father hasn't come home from the discotheque yet."
"Well…."
"You're hungry, but don't have money? Poor you. But don't be sad, please enjoy Hamburger starting from Rp.30,000 only at MtDonald's."
"So I wanted to buy it," I said, immersed in the look of the hamburger, and I didn't drool. I rubbed my lips with my hand. "Oh shit!"
