"Ah...you're right but I have my reasons," I confessed to S.S.
Maybe some people will think I'm rude for revealing everything in my heart and mind without a filter, but I don't care. After all, I used this app for fun and didn't intend to be that serious about finding a sugar daddy.
"What is the reason?" asked S.S.
"Just like you who have reasons not to use real names," I snarled.
S. S took a deep breath and was silent for a while. Then he spoke to lighten the air.
"The reason I don't use my real name is because of my position," he said.
I wondered what he meant, so I interrupted his words. "What do you mean by the title?" I twirled my hair while waiting for S.S answer.
"I am a CEO. If you are not familiar with the CEO. He is the highest level in the company (executive) or administrator who is given the responsibility to manage an organization," he replied.
"Oh, I know the CEO! It's like Mark Zuckerberg and Warren Buffet. Uhm ... who else?" I responded while trying to remember several names.
"Yes. You are right. If you are familiar with the world of work. Reaching the CEO position is easy but falling from a position is easy. Even just one mistake plus my line of work makes my position risky," S.S explained.
"What is your line of work?" I asked after hearing S. S's long and wide explanation.
"I work in mass media," replied S.S.
"Oh," I answered simply.
"The mass media other than providing information about the economy, politics, entertainment and so on. They present their brand in public. If the CEO of a pharmacy company is involved in a sugar daddy-sugar baby relationship, people will not care. But, in different cases, if they are CEO of mass media. If they get involved like that, the public will question the credibility of the media. People will stop watching, belief, and make stocks fall," continued S.S with a more detailed explanation earlier.
Now, I understand all the reasons S.S. As it turned out, he was a very careful person. I still wanted to ask the reason why he wanted to use Sudabay if he knew that his hard-earned position could fall at any moment if he got into some trouble, but I didn't reveal it.
We were silent and we don't have any intention to reopening the conversation again. So, I hung up the call right away. I looked at the clock on the screen of my phone. It's already 9 pm and I decided to sleep so I can wake up early in the morning.

"Good morning world!" I said as I raised my hands to stretch my whole body.
I wake up at 6 in the morning. Before I get ready, I make my bed first. Then, I took out a white shirt and jeans from the suitcase. I looked closely at the shirt and jeans. I do not want the clothes I wear are not neat and tattered. Luckily, these shirts and shirts aren't too wrinkled but I still want to iron them so I can look better for today's training. Unfortunately, I can't find an iron anywhere in this room.
"Hufft, I guess I should ask the receptionist for an iron?" I said while taking a deep breath.
I separate the shirt and jeans that I want to wear and hang them with a hanger. I hoped that if my clothes were hanging, the clothes I was wearing would look tidier even though I don't think it would work. Then, I undressed and headed for the shower room.
"It's so fresh and I feel so alive!"
I finished taking a shower and got dressed. I looked at the clock for a second and rushed to the reception desk to ask for an iron.
After walking for a few minutes, I almost reached the reception desk. From a distance, I could see the receptionist talking to a man. He has a sturdy body and wears a tuxedo. I also noticed that He has blonde hair and blue eyes. From behind, I could see a small part of his pale neck. I don't know if it's the effect of the clothes he's wearing or part of the color of his skin. In addition, he has pale white skin like a vampire in the Twilight movies. When I got to the reception desk, the person immediately left. I can't see him passing but I don't care.
"Maybe he is an important person in this company," I thought.
Then I moved myself closer to the reception desk so I could nail my hands to it. I smiled warmly at the receptionist who was standing there. The receptionist was a young woman. Maybe my age. I also saw the nameplate pinned to her shirt, Bella.
"Good morning, can I help you?" she asked.
"Morning, Bella. Is there an iron here? I want to iron clothes," I asked.
"Oh, iron, huh? It's okay. Wait a minute, okay!" Bella answered, taking a book. Then he left the reception area.
While waiting, I still put my hand on the reception desk. I looked around. Starting from pens, bells, and telephones to several brochures located at the reception desk. Then, I took some brochures and read some of the information contained in them.
The brochure I'm opening and reading now shows photos of some of the CBL News buildings. I continue to be amazed just by reading this brochure. The first sheet is a photo of the central CBL News building in New York, City. Then the second sheet is the CBL News Los Angeles building, where I am. The next page is the CBL News London building. I'm still turning page after page slowly. Then I took another new brochure. CBL News job hierarchy. I glimpsed the faces in that brochure before Bella called out to me.
