TING! The elevator door opened.
Elena looked at her watch.
"11.58! OMG! 2 more minutes and my life could be over!"
Ellena immediately ran out of the elevator. He went straight to the exclusive room at the end of the hotel corridor.
Tap tap tap
Elena's breath hitched.
Ellena arrived at the room with the number 1707 written on the door.
Huh. Ellena did the ritual again. Exhale through the mouth. Trying to steady his breathing. And also calm down.
"If it weren't for that man's help, I wouldn't even have had time to catch my breath right now. Huufttt!" Ellena raised her fist. "Fighting Ellena Watson! Mother, I hope I can make it through the night safely!"
***
Tok Tok Tok
Ellena knocked three times and then opened the door with an electric lock held.
Tiny! The green light is on, indicating that the door can be opened.
Once again, Elena sucked in her breath. Her heart was beating fast. Her hands were cold. She opened the door slowly.
Clek!
*Door opens
"HEH!!" Ellena was surprised while holding her chest.
Victor was already standing there. Still in the shirt, he was wearing. He glanced at his watch briefly, then suddenly glared at Ellena.
"You're thirty seconds late!"
Elena scrunched up her face. He strolled, looking down.
"Sorry, Mr. Victor. The wine was finished, I had to look for it before I came here," said Ellena, frowning and forcing his face to keep a guilty smile on his face. He lifted the wine bottle in his right hand and showed it to Victor.
"You know I don't accept excuses!"
"I'm sorry sir." Elena looked down.
Victor took a deep breath. He looked at Ellena from head to toe.
"Hmm… Beautiful!" he said with a smile.
"Eh?" Ellena immediately looked at Victor. This was the first time Victor praised him after working together for seven years.
Victor looked at Ellena while nodding slowly.
"Because tonight you look beautiful and sexy. Then I forgive you."
Ellena lowered her body 45 degrees. "Thank you for your generosity."
Victor smiled, then stepped slowly towards Ellena.
DEG!
Ellena did not dare to lift her face. His body suddenly felt stiff and unable to move. His whole body felt hot and trembling. Ellena grew nervous when she saw Victor's steps getting closer.
DEG DEG DEG
Victor got to Ellena. Their body distance is only about 50 cm. So close that Ellena's lowered head almost touched Victor's chest.
Victor tilted his head and body, trying to catch up with Ellena's face.
Ellena kept her head down while tightly closing her eyes.
DEG! DEG!
Elena's heart was beating faster and faster. She could barely breathe.
"Why do you keep looking down? Hmm?" asked Victor in an authoritative voice.
Ellena didn't look up, and she was too scared to see Victor's face.
Victor got closer and pointed his hand at the wine bottle that Ellena was holding.
Suddenly Ellena was surprised and squeezed the bottle of wine.
"Let me pour it for you," Victor said softly in his trademark baritone voice.
Ellena released her grip on the bottle. Victor smiled faintly, then took the bottle of wine and walked back away from Ellena.
Heeehhh, finally, Ellena got a chance to breathe even though her heart was still sparking fast.
Victor walked over and took the glass on the nightstand.
Elena lifted her face.
Victor poured the wine into a beautiful clear glass with legs. The perfect glass for drinking wine. The blackish red liquid was seen twisting in the glass. Victor filled it a quarter.
After pouring wine into two glasses, Victor took it and handed it to Ellena.
"Th-thank you sir." Elena took her glass.
"Why are you stuttering? Not usually. Are you nervous?"
"Huh?"
"Did I make you lose focus? You've been answering with the same expression ever since."
"Uh, sorry sir."
Victor smiled again. He held out his glass to the front.
Ellena smiled briefly then raised her glass. She was knocking lightly on Victor's glass.
Victor smiled faintly, then drank his wine without taking his seductive gaze on Ellena.
"Cough! Cough!" Ellena choked while drinking her wine. She was too nervous about this situation. Moreover, added Victor's gaze kept locking it. This time, Ellena was embarrassed.
"Elle? Are you okay?" said Victor as he took the glass from Ellena's hand and placed it on the nightstand. He immediately took a tissue on the side table and handed it to Ellena.
"Excuse me sir! I am alright!" Ellena said as she took a tissue from Victor's hand and covered her mouth.
Seeing Ellena's behavior, Victor let out a laugh, and his face seemed to blossom while revealing an array of white teeth that were lined up neatly there.
Elena suddenly remembered something. She opened her bag and took out a small box.
"Oh, sir, sorry I almost forgot. This is for you."
"What is this?"
"Happy birthday, Victor. Sorry I don't know what gift to give you. This I made it myself," Ellena said hesitantly, holding out the box.
Victor arched his eyebrows. He smiled briefly then took the small box from Ellena's hand.
Elena bit her lower lip. He's getting nervous. Afraid that Victor would not like his simple gift. Ellena realized that even her salary collected for several months would not buy Victor's watch. She finally decided to knit a bracelet with her own hands. At least this is something that is exclusive and cannot be found anywhere else.
"Bracelet?"
"You don't have to wear it if you don't like it, sir." Elena scrunched her face in fear.
"I like!"
"Huh?"
"You lost focus again? Or what? I said I like it."
Elena's face suddenly lit up. "Ah. Thank goodness you like it."
"This!" Victor held out the small box that had been opened.
"Huh?" Ellena looked confused again.
"Put it on for me!"
"Oh, yes sir!"
Elena smiled and nodded. She immediately took the box from Victor's hand. After the box has changed hands. Victor immediately stretched out his hand.
Ellena took out the bracelet made of cotton thread and put it on Victor's wrist. Elle's face looks grave, struggling with Victor's bracelet and hands. Victor seemed to enjoy the sight. He kept looking at Elena's face with a smile.
"It's over, sir."
"Huh? Ah," -Victor blinked and took his eyes off Ellena's face, "thank you," Victor said as he looked at the bracelet in his hand.
"What about my other gifts?"
"Another present?" asked Elena confused.
"Since when did you become forgetful?"
"Excuse me sir? What do you mean?"
"Then why do you think we are here now? Hmm?"
Ellena widened her eyes, realizing what Victor had hinted at.
She smiled awkwardly and nodded.
"Sorry sir, I'm very nervous. Can we have some more wine?" Ellena immediately took their glasses and walked past Victor. Found the Wine bottle and poured it into the glass.
Victor turned around to look at Elle.
Ellena poured half a glass of wine, then handed it back to Victor. Victor frowned. Ellena kept holding out the glass in her hand, asking to be greeted by Victor immediately.
Victor took the glass forcefully and drank it.
Ellena hid a triumphant smile.
Just as half-finished, Ellena moved quickly and poured more wine into Victor's.
Victor frowned even more. "Again?"
"Ah, this is a very good red wine sir. It's a shame if you leave it," said Ellena with a seductive smile.
Victor immediately drank the third glass again. Elena was getting excited. 90% of the plans will work.
Victor looks starting to be uncomfortable and feeling hot. He loosened his tie and unbuttoned his shirt. Victor dropped the glass onto the table, then immediately came forward to grab Elle's waist.
HEY! Ellena's eyes widened in shock at Victor's sudden movement. His right hand reflexively gripped the wine bottle tightly. Victor grabbed the bottle, snatching it from Elle's hand. He looked serious and brought his face closer to Ellena's.
"Are you trying to get me drunk on purpose? Huh?"
Elena was getting nervous. "N-no sir!"
"Tsk! Clever girl! You even stuttered!"
Gleg! Elena swallowed her saliva nervously. Feelings are mixed now. Victor stared intently at Ellena's face. Elena kept a wary stare.
Victor moved his face even further. Elena immediately took a step back. Victor continued to hug Ellena's waist tightly and leaned over. Ellena continued to back away until her hamstrings hit the table. Elena stopped.
Victor tilted his head and pointed his nose at Ellena's neck. He stretched his hand forward. Put the glass and wine bottle in his hand on the table. Ellena continued to back away from Victor's face. He accidentally grabbed the glass that Victor had placed on the table.
Braaakkk!!!
"Eh!"
Victor and Ellena immediately turned their gazes to the fallen glass. Elle successfully canceled one attack. But is Ellena free? Her body was even locked in Victor's arms. Her stout body made Ellena unable to move.
Victor let go of his arm. Ellena's left hand holding the glass was shaking. Victor smiled faintly, then took the glass from Elle's hand. Again he put it on the table.
Elena was getting nervous. She lost her mind. Victor continued to corner her.
Her eyes were constantly on the lookout for Victor's every move. Victor smiled again. He grabbed Ellena's chin and lifted her gently.
Victor looked at Elle in admiration. Elle's eyes accidentally caught Victor's eyes. They stared at each other very closely. Elle's heart was beating faster and faster. His breath is erratic. His breath even reached Victor's face.
Victor brought his face closer again. His eyes turned to look at Elena's lips. Ellena accidentally moved her face to Victor's lips. Looks very tempting. His breath was freshly mixed with the smell of alcohol from the wine he had drunk earlier.
Victor brought his face closer. Elena couldn't run away anymore. He could only close his eyes tightly. Surrender to whatever will happen to him. This would be Elle's first kiss. Ellena never even knew how to kiss. This time, Elle couldn't help but feel Victor's breath getting closer.
DEG!
DEG!
DEG!
Bruuuukkkk!!!
"Huh?"
Elena immediately opened her eyes. Victor's body swayed and fell into Ellena's arms.
Heeeehhhhhhhh. Elena breathed a sigh of relief. The kiss never landed on his lips. Victor seemed to have gotten too drunk and lost consciousness. Elena's plan worked. Victor fell and fell asleep in Ellena's arms with an innocent face.
Elena stared at him intently. His face looks so handsome when he sleeps. Ellena swept Victor's hair up. Then held her cheek. Make sure Victor is asleep, as Elena knew all along. Victor is indeed weak to alcohol.
Ellena mustered all her strength and tried to support Victor.
But his body felt very heavy. His whole body seemed to be made of muscle. Slim but heavy.
Ellena regained her breath and tried to stand up.
"Heeekkk!!! Ah! So heavy!" Ellena sat back down on the edge of the table.
"Sir, sir?" Ellena patted Victor's cheek.
"Ehhh." Victor came to his senses a little. His body lightened a bit. Ellena immediately wrapped Victor's arms around his neck, turned Victor's half-conscious body, then carried him to the bed.
“AAAHHHHH!!!” Ellena couldn't hold Victor's weight. They fell together onto the bed. Elle's body fell on Victor's body.
Ellena's eyes immediately widened as she realized their position. His ears rested on Victor's chest. Ellen swallowed her saliva, then tried to get up from there.
"Ehhh!!!" Victor turned around, and he carried Ellena sideways in his arms.
"Ahhh." Elena grimaced. Their position is now sleeping sideways.
"Sshhhh, ssshhhh, go to sleep, sir. ssshhh ... ssshhh ...," Ellena said quietly like she was lulling a baby.
Victor seemed to be starting to feel comfortable. He started to calm down and stopped deliriously.
Got the chance. Ellena immediately pulled her head down. Out of Victor's arms.
Ellena managed to stand up and got out of bed safely. He tidied up his clothes and ... "Ah! Torn? Must be from struggling! I'm sorry Gerry!" said Ellena while looking at the torn stitches on the side of her skirt.
Huuuffttt!!
Victor's body fell asleep on his side. Ellena looked at him for a moment while tilting his head. She smiled and pulled Victor's shoulder. Adjusted the pillow on his head and changed Victor's sleeping position into a comfortable supine.
She removed his tie. Victor was wearing. Then moved to his belt. Ellena removed Victor's belt carefully. She did this so that Victor could sleep soundly. Ellena neatly rolled up Victor's tie and belt and put them on the nightstand.
She turned his body again and aimed at Victor's feet. Ellena bent down and took off Victor's shoes. She put the shoes back in their place.
Victor looked more comfortable lying down. Ellena set the AC temperature to 21oC, the right temperature according to what Victor usually set while resting in his office.
After all, Ellena put her hands on her waist and looked back at Victor. She smiled at Victor. The man who had been with her all this time.
"Sorry I can't grant your wish sir. I hope you won't be mad at me tomorrow."
Ellena took the blanket and covered Victor's body. She walked over and cleaned up the broken glass he had dropped. Ellena didn't want Victor to get hurt if he got up and walked away later.
After everything was finished, Elena took her bag. She turned back to Victor and looked at her peacefully sleeping face.
"Happy birthday, Victor. Good night and see you tomorrow." Ellena bowed her body in salute. As she usually does when she says goodbye to Victor.
Ellena walked to the exit, turning off the hotel's main light. I closed the door and walked away slowly.
Tap tap tap
Along the corridor, Ellena daydreams with her small steps. She smiled, briefly remembering what happened last night. Ellena still couldn't understand what was going on and didn't seem aware of what had happened.
She again chose not to bother. Elena shrugged her shoulders. And returned home.
***
The next morning. The sun was beginning to shine brightly, and some of its warm light came in through the gaps in the uncovered window.
Victor tightened his muscles, and his consciousness began to awaken. He felt the empty area beside his bed. Victor frowned, then slowly opened his eyes.
His head felt dizzy and hurt. Victor had a hangover due to the influence of alcohol last night. He straightened up and gently massaged his temples. The pain just lessened a little. The hangover made him uncomfortable.
Victor leaned his back against the back of the bed. He looked around and tried to remember what happened last night.
It only took a moment, and Victor laughed sadly.
"ELENNA! Hmmm, smart girl! So you pranked me, huh?"
Heehhhh. Victor took a deep breath. "We'll see after this. You will not survive!"
