"When are you going back to town?" Ginna's question startled Bill. After finishing dinner and chatting with Ginna's parents, Bill had said goodbye to get some fresh air. He sat on the edge of Ginna's father's fish pond and gazed up at the star-filled sky. The quiet country night felt very cozy to him."Surprised me," Bill muttered a little grumpily.Ginna sighed and sat down next to Bill. Of course, Bill was a little surprised because Ginna seemed to avoid him before."How long are you going to bother my parents here?" Ginna repeated because Bill didn't answer her question."Annoying?" Bill turned his head while making an objectionable face. "Who's bothering your parents? They're not bothered at all, anyway."Ginna gave him an annoyed glance while exhaling harshly again. Actually, if she wanted to be honest from the heart, Ginna actually felt that her parents were very happy with Bill's arrival. It had been a long time since their home had felt as lively as it had earlier."Did the D
The next day, Ginna finally decided to return to the city with Bill. This apparently made Ginna's parents happy because they felt Ginna had managed to forgive the situation. After all, despite a mild heart attack, Ginna's father was now doing well. There was no longer any reason for Ginna to continue to worry, let alone get angry with Bill."So we're good now, right?" asked Bill teasingly as they drove into town."In your dreams," Ginna replied nonchalantly.Bill chuckled, "if we haven't made up now, then how can I make up with you?""Only if this afternoon you treat me to some delicious sticks at Mrs. Boss's favorite restaurant," Ginna said again."Lunch, not dinner?" repeated Bill."Yes, lunch." Ginna folded her arms across her chest and smiled crookedly at Bill. When else could she prank Bill like this."But Joana's favorite restaurant usually requires a reservation," Bill said hesitantly."That's your business." Ginna muttered indifferently.Bill glanced back at Ginna and smiled w
Bill and Ginna actually had lunch at Joana's favorite restaurant. Bill even ordered wagyu steaks for the two of them. Of course Ginna was speechless. She knew full well that Bill was doing all this to make her feel helpless."Are you sure you won't go bankrupt after this?" Ginna asked before enjoying the delicious steak that was placed in front of her."If I run out of money, I can just borrow yours," Bill replied nonchalantly. The man cut the steak first and put it in his mouth. Bill seemed to chew deliciously while nodding his head, indicating that the food that entered his mouth was really delicious.The corners of Ginna's lips twitched slightly at the sight of Bill. Ginna really didn't expect that the man would have such an annoying side too.Ginna also finally ate the special steak in front of her. The expression on the girl's face immediately changed when a piece of steak entered her mouth. As if Ginna wanted to say through the look in her eyes, this food is really delicious.Gi
Joana couldn't hide her feelings of happiness. Seeing Ginna who came with Bill, made her feel relieved. Meanwhile, Ginna felt awkward. She thought Joanna would react casually. She glanced at Bill who was smiling broadly. "Surprise!" Bill said, spreading his arms. "I didn't know you were coming here." Joana smiled happily. Then, her gaze turned to Ginna who was still silent. "Ginna, how are you?"There was a slight look of reluctance on Ginna's face, but it quickly disappeared when Joana approached her and took her hand. "I'm fine. Thanks for asking-" Ginna stopped talking when Joana hugged her suddenly. She just froze, not returning her boss's hug as she was still surprised."I'm glad you're back." Joana said sincerely. Then, she released her hug. "Come on, let's go inside." Bill and Ginna followed Joana from behind. The two guests sat in the living room while Joana went to the kitchen to prepare the drinks. "Are you surprised?" Bill asked Ginna, who was sitting across from him.
That day Ginna enjoyed the company of others. Joana gave her employees the opportunity to spend time together to celebrate Ginna's return by taking some time off work. Ginna regrets her own thoughts of thinking that she was no longer considered by Zigga Company. This event made her even more convinced that her hard work had paid off more than she expected. Her existence was considered, even more so. Joana and Bill were a symbol of loyalty itself, Ginna recognized that. "How about we continue the party tonight?" Ronie made a suggestion. "Isn't it too much?" Ginna felt bad because after all in this office they had shown her a lot of love and care. She was afraid of disturbing the other employees who were working. "I agree with Ronie," Bill said excitedly. It seemed that the others agreed too. "But-""Ginna, listen. This isn't just for you." Bill winked one eye at Joana. "It's for us. Think of it as a gift from Mrs. Boss for our hard work. Don't you think?"Joana let out a long sigh
It was lunchtime, and some of the employees were exploring the cafeteria area to take a break. In one corner of the cafeteria, Ronie and her friends, including Bill were leisurely eating their lunch."You see, right? After a storm there's always a rainbow." With her mouth still chewing her food, Ronie exclaimed excitedly. How could she not? After a near-crisis, Zigga Company was finally getting some real justice. Before lunchtime, Joana announced that their company had now been compensated for yesterday's plagiarism case. "Yes. I'm very happy to hear that too." Bill replied with a genuine smile. "I knew that this would pass," he continued with a small chuckle. Ginna sitting across from him nodded in agreement. Her return to the company and the results of her coworkers' struggles had paid off handsomely. Zigga Company was free from the troubles that almost brought down its reputation and fantastic losses. "By the way, any word on the next project?" Ronie posed the question to Bill.
The meeting was still going on and the atmosphere was tense. Bill realized that perhaps he'd been too excited to ignore what Joana and the others were thinking. "I think it's too risky," said one of the staff at the meeting. "How can a game of that complexity be finished in six months?""Right." The staff from the programmer's department was of the same opinion. "Six months is only possible for a simple game. Judging from the complexity of the game in this project, it's impossible to be completed in that time. He let out a long breath, his gaze fixed on Joana who was quietly listening to his opinion. "You're thinking of the worst case scenario, aren't you? What if the project doesn't finish on time, then not only will we be harmed by the possibility of not finishing on time, but also the quality of our game will be at stake." The staff added.If six months is a non-negotiable amount of time to work on the game, then there is a possibility that the work could not be maximized. If tha
Joana had never experienced difficulties like this in making decisions. Getting a week's time from a client also doesn't mean the position is safe at the moment. Within that one week, he also had to prepare for the possibility of additional employees. That is if he decides to work on that game.That day was hard for Joana, so when she got home from work she intended to go to a cafe to relax her mind. Obviously something like this couldn't just leave his mind.As Joana headed to the parking lot, she met Bill. The man greeted him. "Are you going home yet?"“Yeah, but I want to go somewhere first.”Bill realized that the tired look on Joana's face explained everything. "Where are you going?"The woman took a deep breath. Suddenly he changed his mind. "You want to come with me?"Bill ordered drinks for the two of them. At the table, Joana was seen looking seriously out the window. Bill cleared his throat softly to interrupt."Are you still thinking about that project?" Bill asked opening
