Kob & Bau blickering scene.
She was in a hurry and didn't pay any attention. So she just headed straight to Kob’s office. After she walked pass, Eddy, Papob and everybody else looked at each other.
“Look! ... She is here to make up with P’Kob.”, Eddy giggled.
“Yey, we are saved!!! P’Kob had an argument with his wife. He had been moody for so many days. It was like, we were working in hell.”
“I’m so curious. How will P’Kob make up with his wife.”, one of the guy said.
“P’Kob is so proud of himself. There is no way for him to give in. It’s P’Bau, who has to reconcile with him. Didn’t you see that?”
“Who knows? When nobody is around, P’Kob may be afraid of his wife. Maybe, he’s kneeling, asking for forgiveness, as we speak. ”, Papob said.
“Let’s have a peak”, one of the guy said.
“Crazy!!! … We don’t want to see a love scene”, Eddy pretend to be shy & the whole office cheered.
As everybody laughed and cheered, there was only one person, who sit quietly in the corner. She broke the pencil in half with her hands. It was Jane!
Nalin entered without knocking the door. A paper ball flew across the room, just missed her ear by a little. As she was standing there, in confusion. The office’s owner started to yell.
“Didn’t I tell you? Do not disturb. I’m moody today. I want to work in peace !”
Nalin frawned as Kob continued with his drawing. He didn’t even look up.
“Go away!”, He continued. Stilled looking down, his hand was making another paper ball as his weapon.
“If you throw it again, I will throw it back.”, Nalin said firmly.
He stopped what he was doing and looked up quickly. He looked surprise for a few seconds. Then, it quickly changed. She can tell; he was moody. It reminded her of the mischievious boys, she had known for so long. He’s still the same. Then, the paper ball flew out of his hand. It went pass her shoulder, hit the wall & bouced off. Nalin lost it. She picked up the paper ball and threw it back. It hit him right on his forehead.
After that, the war of paper ball began. Whatever he threw at her, she threw it back. In the end, Nalin lost. Her opponent couldn’t take it anymore. He got up and walked over. He grabbed both arms and locked them behind her back. So she can’t throw anything back.
“Let go !”, she tried to break loose. Something felt weird. She didn’t feel anything when Kob grabbed her arms and locked it behind her back. But now, her face is against his shirt. It feels like he was embracing her. She can feel the heat on face and her heart pounding. Before her thought run wild, Kob said something.
“Walking into other people’s office and start attacking. Shell I call security?“
Nalin tried to break loose. But he didn’t move at all. Since she cannot get away, she bite into his arm.
“Ouch!”
That worked. He let go of her immediately. He stepped back and lean against the table. He investigated his bite mark and looked at her. She can tell that he wanted to laugh.
“Where did you get this behaviour, eh? “
Nalin almost laughed.
“Did you take any vaccine? What if I get rabies?”
“I will be a widow, then. Is that good?”, Nalin replied without thinking. He looked into her eyes and didn’t say a word. Nalin wasn’t sure that to do. To break the silent, she started talking about her business.
“Are you free this weekend? Do you want to go to the beach?”
“Why are you asking?”, he asked.
“At my office, we always have annual event. This time, my boss want both of us to go for a honeymoon. You know I cannot reject.”
“As usual”

“What kind of business? How come your sleeve has lipstick on it?”, Eddy pointed out Nalin’s bite mark. The whole office cheered so loud.
Kob wanted to kick Eddy’s butt. But he ran away so quickly. Nalin brushed. She knew they didn’t know anything but she was shy that everybody is joking on it.
“Let’s go, Bau. Don’t pay any attention to them,” said Kob. He pushed her forward and talked her to the front door. After Nalin left, Kob came back and look at Eddy.
“ Aren’t you afraid that I will kick your butt?”, Kob said firmly.
“Nope. P’Kob won’t be attacking anybody, when you are smiling so much.”
“Who say I’m smiling”
“Look in the mirror. Your wife came to reconcile & you smiled so happily. Everybody can see.”, another cheer from them. Kob pointed at Eddy face but he didn’t say anything …. Except smile. A big smile.
