Chapter 2 Part 2
FEMALE LEAD’S POV:
Damia raised her head. Tengku Aaron was looking at her at that time. As long as she raised her head, she would meet that man’s eyes. As long as she raised her head, she would see that handsome man’s face. Including this, it was already the third time. It really made her feel embarrassed. And she felt suffocated too. It looked like there was something wrong with this man’s gaze.
“Why is Tengku looking at me like that?” Damia wanted to know. Who knows if she really was pretty today? Heh… She was feeling over the top.
Tengku Aaron sweetly smiled.
“Why? Can’t I look at a pretty girl in front of me?”
Isk… This sentence! He must be Don Juan’s [1] disciple. Damia pretended like she knew nothing. Like she wasn’t affected by this man’s words.
{TN: [1] Don Juan is a legendary Spaniard proverbial for his seduction of women or a captivating man known as a great lover or seducer of women.}
“Hmmm… Do you have a boyfriend?”
Eh? What kind of question is this? Did he have to ask such a question? Unless with this question, Triumph Air wanted to add another sponsorship, I would gladly answer it.
Boyfriend? Huh… of course, she doesn’t have one! Damia wanted to nod but she didn’t know why she honestly shook her head.
The smile on Tengku Aaron’s lips broadened when he saw Damia shook her head.
“Wah, it looks like I have a chance.” Tengku Aaron winked his eye.
Eee… This guy is flirtatious! What kind of breakfast did he eat this morning that he became like this? He probably swallowed a whole plate of rice! Damia tried to be patient. When she came here, she knew she needed to be Malaya’s heroine [2] . She needed to be patient! However… She really wanted to puke a green banana shoot [3] in her heart. She wanted to throw the file that was in her hand and let his spiky hair get squashed by it!
{TN: [2] Malaya’s heroine is heroine/superhero because she means heroine must be compassionate, forgiveness. Basically a hero quality}
{TN: [3] Puke a green banana shoot is actually a metaphor. It means she was disgusted with Tengku Aaron}
“I think this is the end of our discussion today.” He closed the file on his hand.
Tengku Aaron looked at the watch on his left hand.
“The time flew so fast. I haven’t had enough time to gaze at your pretty face. I didn’t know Raffi Holdings had a beautiful staff like you. If I had known about it, I would have approved the sponsorship immediately. Just so, I can spend more time with you.”
Damia was trying to hold back her itchy throat from vomiting. The more she let it be, the more outrageous this guy became. Tsk! I’ve reached my limit! Does he think that I was like his girlfriend whom he talked with on the phone just now?
From her observation, the way Tengku Aaron talked, there was one thing Damia was certain about; Tengku Aaron was the number one playboy. His bowl of flowery words became the official dialog when he met any other girl.
“I’m sorry, Tengku. But, I have other things to do.” Damia stood up. She felt disheartened to handle this king’s son in front of her eyes. She felt uncomfortable . Before she lost her patience, she had better leave quickly. Someone might lose his eye for no rhyme or reason today.
“Wait, honey… I haven’t finished talking.” Damia who wanted to walk away stopped when her hand was held by Tengku Aaron. She felt there was an electric shock when her skin that never had been touched by a man, was touched by this man.
Tsk… This is sexual harassment! What did he think she was? Did he think he was holding a broom? Wrong ‘parking’ bro. This is my taboo about this touching part! So rude! Just watch out! This time, Damia was really losing her patience. Her hand had been pulled roughly.
"

“What is this, Tengku?! Trying to hold my hand. Did you think I am your grandma?” Said Damia angrily. Her heart was really boiling.
“Aaron!!!”
Just when Damia wanted to explode, Tengku Aaron’s office door opened. A Chinese woman invaded inside with a fierce face and was followed by Tengku Aaron’s secretary. Damia heaved a sigh of relief to try to calm herself.
“ Sorry , Tengku. I tried to stop her but…”
“ It’s okay, Melissa . You can go out now.” Melissa complied.
“Aaron, you …”
“ Shut up, Salmy Yang !” Tengku Aaron yelled loudly. That woman became silent. The big room also became quiet. Only the noise of the air-condition could be heard.
Tengku Aaron’s face was serious. Damia was scared to see it. His sweet words vanished just now. Scary… It really made her forget that her hand was still held by him.
“What do you want again? Didn’t I say that there is nothing more between us. It’s over. O-V-E-R!” Said Tengku Aaron. His voice was a little bit lower than earlier.
“I love you, Aaron. I still love you . Did you understand? L-O-V-E .” Salmy replied in whimper.
“I already forgot you, Salmy. I want to change. I will begin a new life . Moreover… I will get married soon… I want to be the new Tengku Aaron Shah … ”
Damia only became a listener. Ooh… Looks like he was gonna get married soon huh. But, he still wants to flirt with another woman. Condolence to Tengku Aaron’s future wife. So unlucky! I pray that she will be patient to lead her life with an abnormal husband like this.
“ Meet my future wife , Damia Farisha.” Damia woke up from her daydreaming when her name was mentioned.
“ What ?!” Damia’s and Salmy’s voice rose up. Both of them were in shock. She looked at Tengku Aaron with resentment.
“Miss…”
Before Damia could calm down her surprise, her waist was pulled close to his chest. Damia was pissed. Did he think that he was hugging his blankie? This is outrageous with the power of two! When did she agree to get married? Just when Damia wanted to erupt…
“ Try to loosen yourself or you will lose this project . ” Tengku Aaron whispered near Damia’s ear. Damia, who tried to explain the truth, ceased her words immediately. Her hand that wanted to push Tengku Aaron’s chest also stopped. Is this a threat?
Damia looked at Tengku Aaron, eyes-to-eyes. There was an air of warning from those grey eyes that made Damia weaken.
“ No… It couldn’t be ! ” Salmy shook her head in disbelief.
“ Up to you . But that’s how it will happen.” Said Tengku Aaron firmly while sneering.
“You are lying, Aaron. She’s not your taste . Your taste is not ugly like this.” Salmy mockingly smiled while looking at the girl in Tengku Aaron’s arm.
Damia’s ears rang after she heard those words. Gosh! Her mouth sweetly saying it, that even her words were beautiful as a poem huh? [4] The ‘beautiful’ me was said ugly? Just because I was wearing a headscarf, conservative cloth. It was her who was the one that lost in the time zone. She even wore clothes from the Paleolithic era. As far as I know, only the people in that era were wearing revealing clothes top and bottom. Now, this is the era of the millennium!
{TN: [4] Her mouth sweetly saying it that even her words were beautiful as a poem huh? Damia was sarcastic }
Damia didn’t care anymore regarding Tengku Aaron’s hands on her waist. The most important thing was that Salmy’s insults must be counter-attacked! This cannot be forgiven!
“However… Aaron wouldn’t pick anyone that’s uglier than me.” Damia said casually. She felt satisfied!
Salmy’s face changed. Tengku Aaron was smiling while listening to it.
“You’re gonna regret this, Aaron!” Said Salmy angrily before she went out. Not enough with that, she also slammed the door. Luckily, the door was not torn off! She looked so angry…
Damia, who was a bystander, held the laughter in her heart. ‘Salmy’ name fitted with her actual behavior, Salmiang [5] …
{TN: [5] Salmiang is a pun that Damia made with her name. The root words is ‘miang’ means slutty or pervert}
