Chapter 4 - Inevitable Compromise

Jihoon heard Queen's babbling on the other side, he immediately searched for the girl's spot. And

"Hey, where are you? Isn't the phone still ringing?" Queen muttered looking at her phone screen again

"I'm behind you," said Jihoon.

"Huh?!" mumbled Queen immediately looked behind her.

"Hell, where have you been?" Queen asked, switching off the phone and walking towards Jihoon who was standing not far from her.

"I had to take a call from work for a while" replied Jihoon.

"So where do you want to live now?" Queen asked.

"You can't be polite, I'm older than you!" Jihoon said which made Queen glare again at the 183 tall guy.

"Okay-okay, where do you want to stay after this?" Why don't you look for a hotel or lodging yourself instead of coming to Indonesia before?" Queen asked looking fiercely at Jihoon

"Who said that? Don't be a smartass!" replied Jihoon in an annoying manner.

"Then you can speak Indonesian fluently? Queen asked scrunching her forehead

"Yes because I already speak Indonesian, because I often meet colleagues from Indonesia and have learnt a little" explained Jihoon without replying to Queen's gaze which was so unpleasant for her view.

"Well, then where do you want to live?" Asked Queen again asking her question earlier

"Live with you! Where do you live?" Asked Jihoon who successfully made Queen shocked again

"Huh? Nothing! I live in a small apartment sir. Well then I'll take you to a 5-star hotel, come on I have to go after this sir, I have a job" Queen said, immediately walking away from Jihoon without helping him carry his 2 suitcases and bags which were not very light.

"Let me help you sir," said the security guard who suddenly took over the suitcase in Jihoon's hand. Ji Hoon who saw that was a little dumbfounded, because there was a security guard who acted like that even though Jihoon didn't ask for it before.

"Just put all the suitcases and bags in the trunk" Queen said after Jihoon and the security guard arrived in front of Queen's Alphard car.

"I'll take the bag" said Jihoon, taking the backpack on top of the suitcase.

"Okay sir" said the security guard then put all of Jihoon's luggage into the trunk of the car.

"Thank you sir" said Queen before the security guard left the car.

"I don't want to stay in a hotel, I live in the same apartment as you," said Jihoon, getting into the passenger seat.

"But sir…" Queen wanted to argue again but

"There is no argument! Or I won't help with your manuscript report!" Threatened Jihoon immediately got into the car and occupied himself with his ipad

"Tsk, how could this person" Queen growled not daring to argue when dealing with this one

 SKIP TO THE APARTMENT

"Quite large and luxurious, like this is what you call a small apartment? It looks like you're so rich" Jihoon said which made Queen again furious with the scathing remarks that came out of this man's mouth

"Tsk, what does he want?" Queen muttered in her heart.

"Arrange all the affairs of my new apartment, this is my card and id card. I want an apartment on the same floor as your room," said Jihoon walking away from the receptionist and choosing to sit on the sofa in the lobby.

"Oh my, patient Queens… patient…" muttered Quueen immediately took care of everything at the front desk

 And it wasn't long before

"This is the key to your apartment, and here is the card. Queen said giving the entrance card and id card that Ji-hoon gave her earlier.

"Then where's your room?" Jihoon asked.

"My room is three rooms away from yours, right? I have to go now because I'm still busy" Queen said and left before Jihoon could say anything more.

At Queen's apartment

"That's so crazy, it's ruining my mood in full contrast" Queen grumbled as she walked into the room with a stomp of her foot walking towards her room without paying attention to Meyka who was looking at her in surprise in the living room.

"Don't forget you have class in the afternoon!" Mey shouted.

Skip (night)

"Queen didn't come out of the room earlier?" Fika asked Meyka, as the two of them were relaxing in the TV room.

"Before she went to class, she went to Hindy's house, but when she came back, she was really upset, like she was holding back her anger," said Mey.

"Why do you think?" Mey thought

"Let's ask him directly later, now let's just order some food, I'm hungry," said Fika.

"I'll order, you can pick it up in the lobby!" Mey said, immediately taking the mobile phone from the table

"Okay, just order the usual," said Fika.

"I'll order nuggets and burgers," said Fika again.

"This is all 3 right?" Mey asked.

"Yes, for Queen too," said Fika.

"But if she doesn't eat later?" Asked Mey

"Force her to eat, she hasn't eaten since noon," said Fika.

Meanwhile…

 "Who should this be filled in for? Is it that crazy editor or is he still using the name Mr Willi? Queen muttered, who kept typing and deleting on her laptop monitor screen.

"I have to call him anyway, so lazy" Queen muttered, arguing with her heart and brain that were out of sync.

Back to Fika and Mey …

 "I've reached the deliveryman, I'll go downstairs to get the food," said Fika, immediately leaving Mey who was busy with her unfinished assignment report.

 When Fika was in the lift, it seemed like she was familiar with this tall man in front of her, like she had seen him or maybe knew him, but after he got out and she had to stay in the lift to get to the lobby, Fika no longer thought about him.

"Where did the man go? Did he just leave like that, where did he put the food?" muttered Fika who was in the front lobby and after 10 minutes she waited for the ojol father who delivered her food order. She decided to ask the receptionist directly.

"Can I help you?" Asked a female receptionist

"I ordered food on behalf of Meyka. Is it left here? Asked Fika

"Yes sis, the person who delivered it seemed to be in a hurry, so it was left here," said the woman, handing over the totebag containing the food order.

"Thank you, Mrs" said Fika accepting the totebag and was about to leave the lobby when she saw the man she had met in the lift sitting with a man on the lobby sofa.

"Isn't that Mr Jihoon?" Fika muttered, observing Jihoon from the distance she was standing.

"FIKA!" Called Ji-hoon who realised that Fika had been watching him all along

"I'll call you after this report is done, I have some business right now, please excuse me" Jihoon said to the man who had been talking to him.

"Alright then, excuse me sir. I'll wait for further information about the report." She said, immediately leaving Jihoon who seemed to be tidying up the report paper before Fika walked closer to the lobby table.

"What are you doing here?" Asked Jihoon when Fika arrived in front of him.

"I'm staying at Queen's apartment sir, when have you been in Indonesia?" Asked Fika

"What a coincidence, I also live here on the 19th floor" said Jihoon.
