"What should I do?" Olive asked with a distressed expression. "And who shared that photo anyway?" She felt like crying, but she couldn't. Everyone already knew, and it was causing a commotion. How could it not?
The perfectly angled shot, the right lighting, and impeccable timing when Thomas handed her a tissue during their breakfast at Sonatopas. It coincided perfectly with the moment when the chicken curry broth had splashed onto the corner of her lips. But it appeared as though Thomas was exceptionally attentive to Olive. His eyes were locked onto her.
And this was the worst part of it all.
Olive looked bashful in the picture due to Thomas's actions.
Lord! It felt like not only Thomas needed to be submerged in the waters of Senayan Bay, but her too. Not because she wanted to be with Thomas forever! Oh my, please get rid of such thoughts! But Olive felt like she had no face left to meet other people, especially during the upcoming gathering.

As Olive walks along, she's not sure how she feels anymore. Well, it's not just about her feelings, but her expression says it all! She's beyond embarrassed! Oh my god! If there were a competition for the most absent-minded girl, Olive would win it hands down. Yeah, right! Olive ended up parking in the wrong spot. The one she went to was slot B2, lane C6, while her beautiful, beloved motorcycle was in slot B2, lane E9.So far away!!!Oh my god! This embarrassment is unbearable!She feels like hiding her face, but it's already too late; Thomas noticed."You should be more careful next time," says Thomas, patting Olive's head gently. "I told you, didn't I? You're not very careful. This is one example.""I'm just glad it didn't disappear. No need for scolding, sir," says Olive with a sulky tone. Whatever. She'd rather swallow her pride than argue and risk being laughed at. It's better to act a bit childish and, in return, get... attention?"Sin

Olive didn't fall asleep until one in the morning. It's not because her mother isn't there; she can close her eyes just fine. It's because she was busy gossiping with Riana and Darius. That's how she finally found out where the photo came from. Mika, one of Gajah Mada's salespeople, happened to pass by that area and, surprisingly, stopped there to buy breakfast, although a different menu. She recognized Olive and was surprised to see her with a man. She thought Olive was finally dating someone, even though it wasn't clear who the man was. She took a picture to use for gossip, which turned out to be much more than just gossip. The man was the Branch Manager of SAVEFUND Senayan, and it caused quite a stir at Gajah Mada. Fortunately, no one spread it further.They just wanted to know if Olive was really dating Thomas. If so, they wanted to congratulate her because she had finally moved on from her single life. Getting close to her was difficult, she often avoided conversations,

She stomped her foot in frustration. If only Olive was an anime character, there would probably be a fiery red aura around her. Not to mention her eyes, ready to pierce her opponent with orange beams. Unfortunately, Olive wasn't a character like that. So, all she could do was put on a stern face, not wanting to be disturbed, and walk a bit briskly, leaving Thomas dumbfounded in the parking lot.Thomas just chuckled while carrying his helmet. He still wanted to tease her but was afraid Olive would get angry again. So he held back his desire to provoke her for now. Then, all his memories of this morning played back uncontrollably. It was actually fun, why didn't Olive feel the same way?"Sir, stop being ridiculous!"Ugh! Olive's punch on his back hurt! It hurt so much that Thomas had to open the visor of his helmet just to see Olive's expression. Unfortunately, he forgot that it was he who closed the visor for the girl. Despite Thomas's conviction, there was no sm

"Liv," Thomas called out. The intercoms attached to their helmets made it much easier for Thomas to speak. "I know you're angry. But seriously, I didn't mean it that way."Olive remained silent."I do like being close to you." Through the side mirror on his right, Thomas could see that Olive wasn't looking ahead. He turned his face towards her. "I didn't mean to belittle you or think you're easy. It's just because of my higher position in the office, which makes you hesitate to refuse."Feeling that Olive still didn't want to talk, Thomas continued his words."I'm not that heartless. I genuinely want to be close to you, Liv.""But you don't have to do it like that. I'm uncomfortable.""Sorry," Thomas said sincerely. "I was wrong.""Can you apologize too?""Of course, why not? I was wrong, after all. I dared to act that way earlier because I felt like you were comfortable with me yesterday. You even accepted my offer. Remember,

Olive acted normal. Nothing happened, even though she knew Dela often taunted her in the subtlest way possible. If she engaged, the counter table might end up in chaos. People like Dela were best kept at a distance. Not because Olive was afraid or hesitant. It was more about herself potentially acting weird and making mistakes."By the way, I've handed everything over to Olive. Starting Monday, she's the Acting Head Teller.""Not officially, right?" Dela asked with her innocent face. But Olive knew her tone was dripping with condescension."Even though it's not official, the responsibilities are the same. The assignment letter came directly from Mr. Matthew." Ayana smiled, trying to lighten the mood. But Olive remembered that Dela rarely confronted people like this. Dela and Marta might be close, but Olive never expected her to behave like this towards her.What's wrong with Olive and Thomas dating? If Bu Marta consistently faced rejection, didn't that me

"Our gathering preparations are almost done, sir. I've also arranged the costumes."Thomas nodded without taking his eyes off the report handed to him by the admin department."I've set yours aside, sir. It will be delivered today. Some employees didn't want to rent costumes, but I made sure they have separate ones.""Just make sure everyone fits the theme. Don't let this gathering become a burden, Marta," Thomas said, glancing briefly at Marta in front of him."Yes, sir. I understand."Thomas refocused on his work."The sushi from earlier... did you finish it, Mr. Thomas?"Thomas's pen paused, and he blinked slowly before smiling faintly. Clearly, Marta was flustered. His mere smile was enough to make her swoon. What about now?"Maybe it's gone. I gave it to Wina. It's not a problem, is it, Marta? Because I don't really like sushi."Marta's smile, which had been as bright as a payday morning for the employees, quickly f

On Friday afternoon, when all the SAVEFUND CBD staff were busy preparing for the upcoming gathering, Olive and her colleagues at the counter didn't really know what preparations were needed. Most of the planning was done by the admin and sales teams because for the frontliners, their work couldn't be left unattended. It also involved money and customer service.Even though it was only a small preparation, if not carefully considered, it could be chaotic during the event. Especially since Senayan was always expected to excel in terms of performance and appearance. Olive realized that Senayan was indeed the center of attention for many other branches.That's why the CBD WhatsApp group had been buzzing for the past few days, all revolving around their preparations. Olive didn't get too caught up in it. She simply listened to the instructions, most of which came from Marta. She had also prepared what she needed to bring. No need to rent anything. Olive had plenty of evenin

The night Olive spent this time had no hiccups at all. Everything went smoothly. Although she knew that the man who was never far from her was watching closely. Even though someone engaged her in conversation, and Olive knew that Thomas responded with laughter and interesting conversation, it seemed that his mouth spoke, his brain worked, but his eyes were only focused on Olive.Unfortunately, Olive felt that she was becoming the center of attention for another reason. It was better for her to finish dinner quickly and return to her room. There, she found Riana and Yossie. Fortunately, they were allowed to be together, so Olive could pour out all her concerns to Riana. As for Yossie? Well... maybe Olive had to learn to trust that this colleague was different from Dela.Ayana said that Yossie doesn't really care about office gossip. Naturally innocent, Yossie isn't easily influenced, especially since she had her own issues with Dela. That's why Ayana advised Olive to ma
