The Beauty Inside: Stealing The First Kiss, Get a Wife Chapter 33

"What about Aruna, is she okay?" Hendra asked his secretary.
"Miss Aruna reportedly started going to college today, even though her legs are still a little bad. But don't worry, she just sprained her leg." Surya explained.
"Okay. Send me some more supplements and fruits, including dinner for her place (Magic Letter outlet)." Hendra added.
Hendra had sent the same thing to Aruna for several days.
"Hen, shouldn't you visit Miss Aruna? It makes you look more polite. I'm sure her family will appreciate your coming." Surya persuaded.
Today was the fifth day after Hendra's fainted incident. This man looked scary now, spending a lot of time working and didn't talk too much.
"Can't you see we're busy?"
Hendra couldn't talk properly. He even asked Surya and the old doctor who handled him to hide the incident from anyone, including Aruna.
Surya personally came to Aruna, begging her to pretend not to know about Hendra's fainted incident, even though it was the girl who picked up the secretary's call and gave the news that the CEO was unconscious.
Mahendra thought it was Surya who found him and also took him to the hospital, without the woman knowing.
Luckily, Aruna captured Surya's explanation well. She concluded that Hendra would be embarrassed if she knew that she helped him when he fainted.
'Thank God everything is fine.' Surya whispered at that time. Somehow, he couldn't easily say gratitude words now.
"What's my schedule after this?"
"You got an invitation to a birthday party from Baskoro, I'm sure you won't like it so you can rest."
Abi Rizky Baskoro was the owner of an oil company, the Bengawan Oil Company group's elder. He gathered colleagues for his birthday parties every year that seemed boring and a waste of time in Hendra's eyes.

The Wenceslas Group's CEO would only come if he had cooperation goals, or some relationships needed to be approached.
"Prepare my car and clothes, I'll come."
Surya frowned at Hendra's words.
Wasn't wasting a break just to come to a party like this far from his boss's habit?
"You have important plans for today's party?"
'You better have it, or I will drag you to your room, forcing you to rest. Even then, if I dare to do it.'
Surya almost lost his control. He had given up the day before.
Keeping up with the CEO's increasingly workaholic schedule, how could he survive with so little sleep? The time for eating was even swift. If it wasn't for friendship, he wouldn't do it.
This kind of work schedule was very inhumane. As a main secretary as well as a personal assistant, he would follow Hendra wherever his activities were.
The incident when Hendra finally collapsed yesterday was an exception for him because he was unable to resist his fatigue.
It was still the fifth day after the incident that changed him. Surya was clueless about what's wrong with Hendra. He sometimes had a hard time understanding Hendra's personality, a friend he had followed for 8 years.
To be honest, Hendra's personality like this reminded him of his early acquaintance with the Wenceslas heir. He was a little talker and tended to be mysterious with all the cool expressions on his face.
No matter how funny the joke was that made others laughed, he just glanced with a boring look, making other people awkward and confused.
There was an old doctor who seemed familiar with him. The woman could even predict that the medicine she was giving would be thrown away immediately after Hendra left her room.
She then entrusted a similar medicine to Surya, wishing he could persuade him.

"No, I just want to fill my time. Any problems?"
"Fine, I will come with you on one condition."
Surya took out the medicine from his pocket.
"Drink this!" Hendra's secretary had persuaded him several times.
Hendra roughly picked up the bottle containing the capsule which Surya put on his desk.
"Brakk!!"
The man threw it against the wall. It scatteredly fell to the floor. A face full of anger depicted in Hendra's face.
"I don't know how to deal with you anymore."
Surya left the Wenceslas Group's CEO.

"Aruna..." Dea ran to hug her. An aura of happiness enveloped the hijab woman.
"Be careful of my feet, hehe." Aruna also welcomed her best friend's embrace.
"Can you go up? Let me help you." Dea put Aruna's hand on her back.
"No need, I can... It's not as bad as you think." Aruna explained while climbing the stairs to the 2nd floor of the Magic Letter outlet.
Arriving at the top, her friends were very enthusiastic about finding Aruna back. The other reason was that they have received such a touching dinner delivery, 5-star menu in recent days, like what just came.
Aruna checked, swallowing her saliva. It wasn't caused by a tempting dish, but rather because she realised who sent this package.
The man who made her leg hurt seemed to be trying to apologise. But, why didn't he contact her at all? Was he too busy?
Somehow, there was a little hope in her heart.
"Where is Damar?" Aruna asked.
She felt lonely when the eccentric young man was not visible.
"Didn't he tell you?" Lily was a little confused by Aruna's statement regarding Damar's whereabouts.
"About what?" Aruna replied.
"Look at this." Lily typed a few things on the laptop.
It was a video on Indonesia's 2nd trading position. The video included the words 'Reddish Hue' by Danu Umar.
When the video was clicked, Damar's distinctive guitar sound sounded even more beautiful. Still, with the same lyrics, the song was sung beautifully.
Aruna's friends approached, joined in observing. Even though they have repeatedly played the song and commented on it, it seemed they were trying to believe something new that was far from predictable.
They were totally surprised by Damar's decision that suddenly changed.
From the four people who tried to believe it, there was a pair of eyes looking in a different direction. Aruna read another video title which was on the right side of the YouTube display.
*Novelist Danu Umar finally accepted a music producer offer because of his poetry.
*Find out more in novels, poems and songs by Danu Umar.
*Newcomer Danu Umar, only with a simple MV capital immediately skyrocketed.
*Who would have thought that the famous producer Bay Wijaya chose Danu Umar.
All the words were silent, it meant they wouldn't find Damar in this place. It could be that a friend who liked to make absurd jokes would change as someone else.
"Who will do Damar's assignment here?" Aruna chirped and walked away from Lily's laptop.
There was a sense of loss that couldn't be hidden.
"Damar met us yesterday. There are two juniors from literature who will join us," Dea explained.
The young man introduced two of his juniors, namely Laras and Tito. He even underlined that they would not disappoint them.
Beside Danu Umar's two junior specifications, this hijab girl also told Aruna about Damar's hope that he wanted to meet her directly, but unfortunately, the girl was sick.
'This man really won't bother me, but... isn't the way too excessive?' Aruna thought.

Children of Danu, People of Skill Book 1. (LitRPG/Gamelit)
Hi all, this is my first attempt at fiction ever. I'm sure it's awful, first attempts at new things usually are. Hopefully you can find something you like in it. I had a great deal of fun writing it. It's a basic Litrpg/Game, God sends you to a new world to do their bidding plot. I Know I did too much telling and not enough showing. I'm working on that. The underlying system is one haven't seen or done much. a full Point Buy system, like Gurps, Champions or the Hero system. After writing it a while, I see why folks don't do it. The record keeping is tedious. And once you start doing math in subsequent chapters, you can't go back and add more action, just because you dread redoing all the math. I've got about 80k words written in two "books" on the novel so far. I'm going to edit chapters and try to drop a couple a week till it's finished. Hopefully that will work for folks. I need to punch up the amount of action. I'll be working on that as well. Thanks, Cal-P.S> The cover art is one of the two CIrce Paintings By Waterhouse.
