"Yes, hello Grandma. What's wrong Grandma?"
"Are you at the office, honey?"
"It's okay, Grandma. It's just that Aleysa arrived at the office."
"Well then, try to prepare Hans using the food you brought now. Grandma really wants to see you two romantically."
Hans immediately put his cheeky face on Aleysa. Make Aleysa afraid of him.
"But Grandma. Hans is still busy with work. Later, Hans will eat alone with him. I want to go straight home Grandma. Because I want to do monthly shopping for the house."
"Never mind you, don't make too many excuses. It must be Hans who told you to get out of there quickly. Where are you giving the cellphone to Hans."
"I... Yes, Grandma."
Aleysa immediately gave her cellphone to Hans. Hans couldn't help but accept it. This time there was no longer any reason for Hans to avoid his Grandmother.
"Hello Grandma. I... Yes Grandma. What's wrong Grandma?"
"Why are you busy? You don't pretend to be busy. You eat the food that Aleysa brought right now. And Aleysa has to feed you. Grandma wants to see it right now. Don't make too many excuses for you and Grandma."
Finally Hans could not move anymore. Hans just kept quiet and obeyed all of his Grandmother's requests.
"I... Yes Grandma. Hans wants to eat this mouthful with Aleysa."
"Well then. Come on Aleysa, you prepare Hans."
"I... Yes Grandma."
Aleysa began to feed Hans very gently. Hans felt very pressured when he had to be bribed by Aleysa. The woman he didn't love. Especially now that his Grandmother is monitoring him via video call. Meanwhile, Aleysa was very happy because she could be that close to her husband. Because all this time Aleysa had never been this close to her own husband. How can Aleysa be close to her husband if in Hans mind there is only Emily.
Meanwhile, from outside Hans office door, Emily was already watching the two of them.
"Aleysa is really rude. How dare she get close to Hans. Just because Hans Grandmother supports her relationship with Hans. Why would Hans want to be told something like that anyway?"
Emily continued to listen to all the conversations between Aleysa and Hans inside.
"That's right. Grandma will be happy to see you two like this."
"Yes, Grandma," replied Aleysa. Meanwhile, Hans was silent.
"Well then, let's continue with lunch. Watch out if you two are far away again. Grandma wants to rest first."
"Yes Grandma. Just take a break. Bye Grandma."
"Bye honey."
Phone connection is turned off. Finally Hans was relieved because his Grandmother was no longer being watched over by his Grandmother. Hans immediately moved away from Aleysa's hand who was about to feed him. But it turns out that Aleysa has started to be brave with Hans. Aleysa answered all of Hans words from now on.
"Grandma isn't calling anymore. So you better stop bribing me like this. I don't like being bribed by you."
"Do you really want me to tell Grandma that you don't want to be fed to me?"
"Are you brave enough to answer me like this? That's too threatening."
"I'm not threatening Hans. I'm just reminding you. It's too bad for Grandma if you lie like this."
"Whatever. Let's eat quickly. I want to finish eating with you quickly."
"Well then. Here."
Finally Hans continued to have lunch with Aleysa. Emily who saw it from afar could only be silent. Because Emily also doesn't want to be seen as weak again by Hans's Grandmother. Moreover, Emily knew that Aleysa had begun to dare to threaten Hans.
"It's really annoying. I'd better give up this time. But just watch out, Aleysa, I will teach you a lesson so you don't dare to get close to Hans again," Emily said in her heart.
*****
10 minutes later Hans finished his lunch.
"Thank God you've finished your lunch. If your stomach is filled like this, you can focus on your work."
"Come on, you don't have to talk much. I've already finished eating. You'd better get out of here."
"Yes, yes. I want to get out of here. I will say goodbye first, Hans. Good work spirit."
"Yeah. Don't talk too much."
"Yes, yes."
Aleysa came out of Hans room. Aleysa will return home. Because Aleysa's task of giving lunch to Hans was done. When Aleysa came out of Hans room, Aleysa suddenly fell. Actually not without reason Aleysa could fall like that. But because Aleysa's feet were blocked by Emily's feet, Aleysa fell.
"Ouch," Aleysa whispered.
"Oh my gosh, so be careful when you walk. Here, let me help you. Eh, Aleysa?"
Emily pretended not to know that it was Aleysa who fell. So that Aleysa doesn't know if it was Emily who made her fall. Aleysa immediately woke up and looked at Emily very deeply.
"Emily. Surely you made me fall like this on purpose, right?"
"On purpose? Don't just accuse Aleysa. I don't know if it was you who fell. After all, I didn't do much to make you fall."
"Less work? Isn't it that you've been lacking work all this time? Because all this time you've been disturbing my relationship with Hans."
"Hahaha. What? I disturbed your relationship with Hans? Did you not see that you were the one who ruined my relationship with Hans?"
It turned out that the two of them were arguing as far as Hans room. Hans who was disturbed by the sound of the two of them immediately came out to them.
"What's all the fuss about? Aleysa, Emily. What's all this?"
"This is Hans. Emily made me fall like this on purpose."
"No, Hans. It's a lie. I don't know if it was Aleysa who fell."
"Well, it's stopped. It's noisy, you know. Disturbing my work. Aleysa, you better go home now. And Emily, you come into my room."
"Okay Sir."
Emily felt that she had won from Aleysa because she was told to go into Hans office while Hans sent Aleysa home. Emily gave her worldly smile to Aleysa. Emily and Hans also went straight into the study without paying attention to Aleysa. Aleysa could only be silent and immediately left Hans office.
"How could Hans defend Emily more than me. But I am also self-aware because only Emily is the one Hans loves. Not me. Then I'd better go home," Aleysa said in her heart and without realizing it she shed tears over her cheeks. Aleysa immediately wiped her tears and left Hans office by taxi while harboring feelings of disappointment with Hans.
