The car that Calvino was driving had arrived at the Luz Company lobby. He got out of the car and opened the door for Calista. "Honey, come down." After that, he throws the key at one of the bodyguards. "Please move my car to the parking lot."
"Yes, sir."
Calista protested at Calvino. "Why do you have to hurry?"
"Don't ask too many questions, come on." He wrapped his arms around Calista's waist.
Calvino pressed the elevator button, and then the elevator door opened. They come in. He took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled. "Lord, why am I getting nervous?" he muttered.
Ting. [Elevator clinking sound.]
The elevator door opened.
Before leaving the Elevator, Calvino closed his eyes to reduce the beat, his heart pumping 1,000 times faster than usual.
"How long will you be in the elevator, huh?" Calista was mocking Calvino.
Calvino's eyes opened.
Calista was annoyed and went out first. "He wants to get to the office quickly. Now, instead hiding in the Elevator. It's really weird."
Coming out of the Elevator, Calvino glanced around the assistant executive CEO's room and caught a blonde-haired woman. "Is this woman named Kia?" Examine the woman's appearance. "Why is it different from the photo?" her voice is low.
Calista turned her head. "Did you say something?"
"I didn't say anything? Maybe that woman over there was talking to someone on the phone."
"That woman is quite far from us. It's impossible her voice all the way here."
"Is that woman whose name is Kia?"
"She's Miss Moi, who helps Kia with work."
"I haven't seen it before."
"She just joined this company."
"Um, no wonder I didn't recognize her." He turns to Calista. "Then where is Kia? She should be here to greet you."
"She's in the meeting room." Rubbing Calvino's arm. "Mr. Ansley, is waiting for me. I have to go to the meeting room now. You just go to my room, ok?" Glancing away and leaving.
Calvino did not go to the CEO's room but to the assistant executive CEO's room. Moi stood up and bowed. "Good afternoon, sir." Time and time again, stealing glances at Calvino. Handsome. She praises in her heart.
"Continue with your work."
"Yes, Sir."
Calvino went to Kiara's desk. He grabbed an acrylic board. On the acrylic, the board is written. [Assistant Executive CEO - Kiara Larasati]
Calvino stroked the acrylic board and smiled. "Fate brought you to me, Miss Kia."
--
Calvino is like a crazy man. He was in front of the meeting room and tried to peek inside but failed. The curtains of the meeting room were tightly closed.
"Shit, if it's like this. How can I see Kia?"
Calvino was willing to wait to meet Kiara. Damn, the meeting lasted so long that his legs cramped up. Even so, he didn't give up. To meet Kiara Larasati, he was willing to stand for hours.
Calvin is restless. He paced back and forth in front of the meeting room.
"Oh My God, they've been meeting all this time. What were they discussing?" Calvino walked towards the door.
At the same time, the door opened. Calvino gasped, and so did Calista and Ansley.
Calista brought her face closer. "What are you doing here?"
"Waiting for you," Calvino replied casually, then glanced around, and behind Calista and Ansley was a man.
Where's Kia? he asked himself.
Calista followed Calvino's gaze. "Who are you looking for?"
"Just wondering who you were meeting with."
"Wait in my room." She hissed in Calvino's ear, then turned to her business partner. "Please, Mr. Ansley."
Calista and Ansley left the meeting room.
Calvino was stunned at the door, staring intently at Calista's departure.
Calvino exhaled a heavy breath that slowly exhaled. "Lord, why are you toying with my life so cruelly? Why is it so difficult to reveal who Kiara Larasati is? I just wanted to make sure she was Samara or not. Only that. Why does it feel so hard?" Rubbing his face roughly. "Please, give me a hint even if it's only 1%."
"Excuse me, sir. Could you please move. I must close the door."
Calvino looked back, and his eyes met with the owner of the melodious voice. He was stunned for a moment.
"Sir, I must close the door. Please shift."
Calvin was unmoved. "This is real right?"
"You mean?"
"Samara-" patted his cheek with trembling hands. "You're still alive?" He grabbed her slender shoulders and almost hugged her but was immediately pushed violently. "Don't no polite to me. My name is Kiara Larasati, not Samara."
"Sorry."
"You are delaying my work. Please shift."
Calvino took a few steps back.
After locking the door, Kiara decides to return to her room, but Calvino holds her back. "Wait, Miss Kia."
She twisted her body and glanced at Calvino. "The meeting is over. I suggest you leave the meeting room immediately and join your group from Fulton Company."
Calvino ignored whatever Kiara said. He looked closely at Kiara's face.
"I know, you's not you Samara. Your accent and look are different. Samara gaze is gentle, full of love and Miss Kia's gaze, sharp. But strangely, her eyes are like magnets pulling me very strongly." Calvino muttered.
"I apologize for my disrespectful attitude towards you, Miss Kia. Your face reminds me of an old friend of mine."
Kiara softened her gaze. "No problem, sir. I can understand. Excuse me."
"I hope you continue to feel at home at this company and don't mind what just happened."
"I don't like to exaggerate trivial matters. I am recommend that you immediately join your group. Must be Mr. Ansley awaits your arrival."
Calvino's eyes narrowed at Kiara. "So you think I'm a group from the Fulton Company? Don't you know that I'm a CEO? Didn't Calista tell you about me?" he muttered.
"Please, sir. Leave this room."
"Please you go first, Miss Kia."
Kiara smiled at Calvino. "I'll go first."
"Yes please."
Calvino wanted to stop Kiara and talk to her about many things, but he didn't wish the woman to be scared and walk away from him. He leaned against the door, watching the woman leave until it was out of sight.
