I sit at my office desk. I turned on my computer, "Hey, I've got a call from Delinda, and she said your new CFO was on the way to here," I nodded. "Thank you," she walks into my office, and I'm looking at her, "you made it," I'm approaching her and locked the door, "don't do it at this office. I'm afraid the curse will exist," she laughs, and she took off my suits.
"I heard you become the good rookie CEO?" I shook my head, "you already call the catering company?" She nods. "done," I nodded. "You have peanut allergies, right?" I nodded.
"Um... Rose?" She looks at me, "yes?" I should hold it because she tries to 'taking me down,' "Does it Ms. Jekyll who was speaking?" I sighed. "Let's we do this on the motel a couple of blocks from here, okay?" She smiles. "Let's go!" She pulls my tie, "wait, what about my new CFO?" She looks at me.
"Are you serious? He will..." we heard knocking on the door, she growled. "You should be patience, Rose." She was tidying up her dress as I'm tidying up my tie. "You ready?" She nods.
I opened the door, and we were welcoming him. "So, the rumors were true," I shake his hand, and he was ignoring Rose's hand. Good boy, "I'm sorry, Ms..." I put my hand in my pocket, "Mary, Rose Salsabila Mary, you can call her Ms. Mary" he shakes Rose's hand.
"Nice to meet you, Ms. Gabriela, Ms. Mary." I sit on my chair and type my username and passwords. "What do you want to drink? Coffee, tea, mineral water, or alcohol?" I hold my laugh. I know she pissed right now, "mineral water, please," I'm smiling, "good choice," I sighed.
"So, what's your name again?" He sighed, "My name is Yoo Hae Jin. You can call me Hae Jin." I nodded as I opened his resume and his background files. "Are you nervous?" He nods. "I read on the internet that you... a lesbian?" I like this guy. I mean, he is straightforward, honest, hard-working. I won't lose this guy. He can get employee of the year.
"As I saw your resume, you worked with PT. Kalimas Sejahtera? It is a multibillionaire company. Why were you quitting that job?" He nods, "They went bankrupt several months ago," I nodded. "As you can see, Mr. Yoo, I'm a butch," he nods, "you have a problem with that?" He nods. "Do you will brainwashing us?" I shook my head.
"Why would you thinking like that?" He shrugged his shoulders, "maybe you wondered why I send them all to the camp?" He nods, "It's for their character. Have you heard the news? About the viral video?" He nods. "My wife and I watched it," I nodded. "I was afraid it would happen again and make the stock dropped, Mr. Yoo. It's important to keep the stock growing." He nods.
"I'm sorry," Rose came with a mineral bottle in her hand. Where was she? "I'm waiting outside," I hold her hand. Shit, I forgot. "I'm sorry, Ms. Mary. Can you search a motel nearby from here?" She nods and walks to her desk. "Planning to do something?" I continue to read his resume, "I want to have lunch with her," he hums.
"So, do you have more questions?" He nods, "What about the pensions?" Excuse me? "I mean, do we get insurance?" What? Insurance? "I don't insurance my employee's health yet, but if wages, it's more than enough," he sighs in relief. "Can I know how much my wages are?" I'm clearing my throat.
"What do you want exactly? It's like you have a deal?" He nods, "I wanted you to increasing my wage, and I want 1% of your company stock" this guy is beyond my expectations. "you can have it," I stand up and shake his hand.
"You can sign the contract after you spent two weeks at the camp, Mr. Yoo. I'm sorry about the mess," he laughs. "Because the private party?" I nodded. "You can't attend tonight. It's for investors, official executives, and the council." He nods. "Can you tell me why?" I took a deep breath, "you aren't officials yet, so I'm sorry, Mr. Yoo." He nods. "It's okay. I get it, Ms. Gabriela" I shake his hand. "Welcome to this company, Mr. Yoo," he smiles.

I walked approaching Rose, and I put the report on her desk gently, "can I ask you a favor?" She looks at me, "what kind of favor? Be your pleasure assistant?" Are you drunk!? She laughs, "why were you laughing?" She sighed. "I imagine you become my wife," I sit next to her, "what do you imagine?" She holds my hand, "what if you become a mom?" I looked at her.
"You pregnant?" She shook her head, "no, I don't. But, what it looks like you become a parent?" I nodded. "If we had a kid, I would treat them like my best friend, but I teach them to be polite since a kid." She looks at me. "I mean, I let them choose what they want and what they do, but if the matter of love, we should be involved, but let them choose and did some background check," she hums.
"You want a boy or a girl?" I raised my eyebrow, "we should discuss it now!?" Rose shrugged her shoulders, "I don't know, I'm asking." I nodded.
"I don't care about the gender. What I care about is your protection, school, food, and family love and friendships." She looks at me, "I don't want them to feel the same as me. No matter what happened to their lives, we should support them. I mean," I sighed. "Every choice that we made having a risk we should take." Rose nodded.
"I agree with you, but if I can't give a child, Would you leave me?" I'm smiling, "I never anyone left behind, Rose. I never leave you," I'm scratching my nose, "we can visit an orphanage, we can adopt two, or three, or whatever amount of children you want to adopt, I will treat them as my child." She looks at me. "I want all of the orphanage children in this world to adopt," I'm laughing.
"Let's conquer the world of an orphanage with me," she laughs and pushing my shoulders gently, "you bet," we look at each other eyes, "why?" She rubs my face, "I've been thinking..." we heard someone knocking on a door, "I don't have visitors, right?" She nods. I looked at Sam, he kicking my door.
"Hello, Ms. Gabriela. Nice to meet you again," he points a gun as we were standing, "stand behind my back," I hold her hand tight, "you'll be dead, Ms. Gabriela." He knocked me. The last I remembered, I heard Rose screaming my name.
