My Enemy, My Fiancee

Chapter 1

"Once upon a time, there was a woman named Astrid. She is a kind-hearted and generous woman. She moved from her previous house in the village to the city to join her dad who served there. There, she met her new classmate, Aruna. They became an inseperable best friend, always together wherever they go. Then, Aisya and Aruna made a promise that they should marry together with their respective partners when they grow up. That promise became true. After their marriage, they build houses close together so they could maintain their friendship and—"

"Whoa whoa, hold up. So you sayin', Astrid is your mom and Aruna is Zidan's mom?" ask the round-eyed girl, while sitting on the bed.

The shoulder-length hair girl nod.

"And, yours and Zidan's mom got pregnant and gave birth at the same time?" said the round-eyed girl, guessing. Again, that shoulder-length hair girl nod her head, agreeing on her.

"God, just like that K-Drama I watched the other day. How complicated your story is, Z."

Zivia sigh, "Well, that's how it is. Besides, I keep wondering why mom and his mom could ever promised such a stupid thing like that. Then again, why did they get pregnant at the same time? It doesn't make any sense, Krista."

"Girl, everything happens in this world by reason. Maybe, this is your destiny. Maybe, he is destined to be your man after all!" said Krista while laughing very hard. 

Without doubt, Zivia pick up a pillow near her and throw it into Krista's face. "What the hell! That hurts!" said Krista angrily. Zivia seems very happy knowing her best friend is hurting. 

"You watch your mouth, or else—"

"Or else what!?" Krista sticking her tongue out. Zivia looks away, very pissed.

"But, aren't you already engaged with him? If he's not your destiny, what else?" tease Krista to Zivia.

"This stupid engagement is set up by our parents—it's against my will. Like a bad luck for me. Like, I have to get engaged with the person I hate in the universe?? Ugh."

Krista shakes her head. As a person who know Zivia for a really long time, since middle school even, she know how big her hatred toward Zidan. Even among their friends, Zivia and Zidan was known by the nickname 'Tom and Jerry' live version.

One time, they argued on the middle of the street, in front of many crowds, only for trivial things. Krista remember that one time, Zivia and Zidan made a vow that they will not ever going to marry each other to death. Truth is, they're now engaged and anytime soon they will get married, one way or another.

"Don't be like that, Z. He will be your husband soon, right? Don't say bad things about him." tease Krista even more than before.

"I swear to God I'll—"

*riiinggg* Zivia's phone ringing.

She looks into her phone, wondering who call her. Krista peeks into Zivia's phone.

"What a fortune. Your future husband's calling."

Zivia angrily throw all of her pillows to Krista while curse coming out of her sexy lips on Krista.

Next morning, Zivia walks toward a big building named 'Z Group'. She greets the employees politely with a sweet smile on her face. She already worked in this company for about two years. She loves about her job, her working environment, her workmates, and everything about this company. One thing that she hates about this company is it belongs to Zidan's family.

At first, she didn't know about that. Later she found out when the old CEO resigned from the company and replaced by the new CEO, that is Zidan himself. You can only imagine her face when she saw Zidan walked through the lobby with a haughty face. Moreover, she hated the moment when he smiled to her like he mocked her.

"Morning, Vi." said her friend, Beby.

"Morning, By." Zivia greet her back.

Zivia sits in her cubicle and looks into the woman beside her. Looks like she wanna say something to her.

"What's up, By? You wanna say something?" said her to Beby, her workmate, while putting down her bag on her desk.

Beby smiles happily when Zivia guessed her intention.

"Are you like some sort of psychic or what? Look, I heard boss's GF will come today!" said Beby excitedly, somehow.

"Yeah? Said who?" said Zivia, while looks away. Zivia seems having zero interest on that conversation.

"Girl, everyone on this office's already talking about her. She's a supermodel, you know. Of course everyone is talking about her."

Zivia smiles awkwardly. She really doesn't have any interest on this kind of topic, especially when it comes to Zidan.

His girlfriend is a supermodel? Of course that's not her. True, they're engaged. However, they agree to not involved into their own personal privacy. She knew that Zidan already had a girlfriend long before they're engaged. She even knew how Zidan's girlfriend look like, because she met her once. Yet, she doesn't care much about it.

"Don't you curious about boss's GF?" ask Beby curiously. Well, it is not wrong that employees on this office often talks about the young CEO, Zidan Dirgantara Jr.. He is the son of the famous Zidan Dirgantara, most successfull businessman who have several companies including telecommunication, aviation, etc in the country.

"Not at all. Why must I? My love story is as bad as hell. Might wanna fix that first." said Zivia lazily. 

"Bummer. Well, better get back to work." Beby turns around into her cubicle. Zivia just shake her head.

Then she turns on her computer and picking up documents from her drawer. When she's about to begin her work, someone's calling her.

"Zivia,"

She jumped a little bit, while turns her back into the voice. "Y-Yes, Ma'am?"

"You are summoned by Mr. Zidan into his office." said one of her secretary.

"Yes, Ma'am." She answered.

****

She walks into Zidan's office lazily. She sigh. "Why would that jerk ask me to go to his office? Geez, that jerk." She mumbled. Not long after, she arrives on the front door of Zidan's office.

Knock knock

Slowly, she open the knop of the door and enter his office. "Excuse me, Sir. Can I help you with something?" said her politely even though she hate that so much.

"Don't be like that. Only two of us here. Speak like you usually talk to me" said Zidan.

"What? Why calling me? Don't you see I have so many s**t to do?"

"Girl, chill. Have a sit. Do you want a drink?" Zidan stand up from his desk to the sofa on his office. Zidan looks into Zivia, standing still in front of his office's door. "Sit, Zivia. Why standing there?"

"Don't play nice with me. Straight to the point. Why you calling me?"

"Geez, what am I supposed to do then? You always mad at me whatsoever. What a troublesome girl you are."

Zidan continues. "Ehm, so this afternoon my mom will come to visit me here."

"What? Why is she suddenly want to come here?" ask Zivia shocked.

"Beats me. My mom is always like that, likes to surprise others. Maybe she wanna see you?"

"But how about your girlfriend? I heard she wants to come visit also."

Zidan surprised and ask curiously, "Wait, how did you know? Don't tell me you're starting to—"

"Stop right there! Not like that. The whole office is gossiping about you and her right now."

Zidan nod his head. "Fair point. Then, would you help me?" ask Zidan.

"Like I would." she answered curtly.

"Hey, don't be like that to your own fiancée. We knew each other since we were a baby, right? Please help me. I'll give you anything you want." Zidan begged.

Zivia looks to Zidan. "Anything I want? Like what?"

"Like that limited edition Gucci sling bag you want, perhaps?"

Zivia swallowed her saliva. Still shocked about the offer. She cannot hide the fact that she really wanna that bag so much. "Okay, what should I do?"

"Yes, thank you so much! Please take my mom outside the office for a while."

"What!? Are you out of your mind!? How about my work?? And where the hell should I take your mom??"

"Anywhere but here. Like shopping mall, salon, restaurant, up to you. About your work, consider it done. Don't worry about it."

Zidan grabs his wallet, take out his credit card, and give it to her. "Take this. Use it whatever you want. Just, make sure mom doesn't come into this office, okay?"

Zivia take the credit card off him. "Then what I supposed to say to your mom?"

"Hey, you could say anything. You're the smartest since we were in school. Use your imagination." Said Zidan complimenting.

"You mean lie to her? By the name of God, Zidan you are such a jerk. How many times do I have to lie to your mom only just for you two?" Zivia said full of anger. They always argue over anything, but when it comes to something like lying, Zivia hate it so much. Especially when she had to lie to cover up Zidan's bad behavior.

"Yes, yes I am sorry for this. This is the last time, I promise." Zidan apologize while convincing Zivia.

"Promise my a*s. Don't blame me if s**t turns bad." she adds. She turns her back to door, ready to leave.

"Yeah, I won't. Thank you, my beautiful fiancée!" he replies happily.

"Stop that, jerk!" She came out and slammed the door very hard.
