Superstar Husband & Genius Wife - Chapter 28:Errand Girl
“Why is that red apple here? Does he know me? Or did he even follow me from Bali? Oh right, my necklace!” Carolina thought again when Ethan had gone out with someone. Since returning from Bali, Carolina has not had time to look for the identity of the man who slept with her.
But after seeing the man again, she suddenly remembered that she did need to meet him, to ask for the necklace.
“Carolina Akai?” deep in thought, suddenly someone called her name. Carolina once again turned her head and saw a man who looked like he was in his 40s and was wearing office clothes.
“Ah, yes, sorry for the long wait. Come with me,” said Adam and then led the way to the elevator again.
“Since you are majoring in IT, I just put you in the IT division, OK. Later the division head over there will decide where are you gonna be put on,” said Adam while explaining.
“Fine,” replied Carolina. After the elevator descended again, Adam and Carolina immediately got into it. Adam then pressed the button floor for the 4th.
After arriving on the 4th floor, Adam went straight to one of the rooms there and knocked on the door.
“Come in,” answered someone from inside. Adam immediately opened the door and invited Carolina to enter.
“Hey, here is an intern from Smart University majoring in IT. This is her resume,” Adam said and then immediately handed over the paper he had been carrying.
“Are we now accepting an intern?” asked the man who asked bluntly not caring that Carolina was there.
“The boss has agreed. Maybe as well as promoting the name of the company,” said Adam.
“Then I will go first,” said Adam finally.
“Ah yes sir, thank you,” replied Carolina with a smile.
After a while, the atmosphere returned to silence. The man was busy reading the paper that Adam had brought, while Carolina just stayed there, although usually, Carolina would play with her cellphone, but she knew she shouldn’t do that.
“Looks like you can code, huh?” the man asked after seeing the paper containing Carolina’s resume.
“Ah yes sir, I know a little bit,” said Carolina trying to be modest.
“Okay, I’ll just give you the project-management section. Actually, we need to be in the network as well, but I don’t think you are very good at that part,” said the man and then pressed the intercom in his room.
“Tell Andi to come to my room,” said the man after someone answered him.
While Carolina just smiled, she didn’t want to brag from the start that she had expertise in networking because she fears that her identity as a famous hacker would be discovered.
After speaking to someone over the intercom, the man in charge returned to busy with his duties, while Carolina was silent. Nor did she want small talk with the man.
After a while, there was another knock at the door, and a man in his late 20s came inside. The man is white and wears glasses.
“What’s the matter, manager?” asked the man.
He glanced at a woman wearing a campus alma mater jacket who was also in the room, but he chose to ignore it.
“Ah, it turns out that you, Carolina introduced Andi, one of the project managers in the application development team,” said the man introducing Andi.
“Andi, this is Carolina, an intern from the Smart University. During her internship here, you are the supervisor!” said the man introducing Carolina.
“Sir! You know that right now my team is in trouble because my programmer can’t be contacted! I’m asking to lend a programmer from another team! Or if you can’t, just hire a freelance programmer, why do you even give me an intern?” Andi immediately disagreed when he heard this. The situation on his team is messed up right now, and he has to be the supervisor for the intern? Seriously!
“Ah, the head of the application development team has already told me about that, but our budget is not enough to hire a freelance worker! Well, my decision is unanimous, you can go back,” said the man and then kept himself busy again.
Andi could only sigh and then immediately came out without saying anything. Carolina who saw that decided to follow Andi after saying goodbye to the manager.
Andi, who did not want to supervise the interns, immediately looked for the head of his team.
“Sir!” said Andi when he got to his room.
“What is wrong?” the head of the team who seems busy didn’t even look at Andi when the man walked in. He could already guess what the man was trying to say.
Andi then said the exact same words he said to the IT division manager.
“Andi, currently we are still trying to find out where your programmer is. Your suggestion to find a freelance programmer is also not possible because we don’t have enough money, to lend programmers from other teams is also difficult because you know how we work here. Calm down first and try to observe that intern, isn’t there something about her that has been accepted for an internship here? Moreover, the manager gave him to your team,” said the head of the team trying to explain it calmly.
Andi was silent when he heard it, he still could not accept being an intern supervisor.
“Or if you are not sure, the project can be submitted to another team, how about that?”
Andi looked at the head of the team in disbelief. They’ve been working on the project for more than 2 months, and now they have to be thrown into another team? Seriously!
“No sir, I will do it, excuse me,” said Andi and then immediately came out of the room.
Carolina, who had been silent in front of the head of the team’s room, returned to follow Andi when the man had left the room.
Andi, who realized that Carolina had been following him, chose to remain silent. Since the first time Andi saw her, he realized that Carolina has a beautiful face. The impression she got from that was, this woman must be a fool!
Andi often sees beautiful women, but they usually don’t connect when chatting with him, or they are really stupid. Just rely on their looks.
He was also sure that the woman could be an intern here thanks to her pretty face!
So Andi will not take her seriously.
“This is our room, you can sit there,” said Andi then showed an empty seat.
In the room, there are 6 work desks including Andi’s, but there is 1 empty chair at the table. Carolina then decided to sit there.
“How? Did you get it? Is she the one?” someone asked Andi when he saw Carolina sitting in one of the chairs.
Andi shook his head and held his forehead, “Not given to the boss, oh, she’s an intern from …,” said Andi because he didn’t pay attention when Carolina was introduced, he only caught”intern,” when the manager introduced Carolina.
“You, come here and introduce yourself,” said Andi and then called Carolina to stand beside him.
The five people who had been busy with their business then took another look at Carolina.
“Hello sir and ma’am, my name is Carolina Akai, majoring in Informatics Engineering from the Smart University, nice to meet you,” said Carolina and smiled.
“How come you call me sir, it should be brother!” said one of the men in his 30s.
“Desi has a rival, huh,” said another, glancing at Desi, who is the only woman there.
“What a rival, haha, learn to put make-up first Des,” said another one. Desi was just silent when she heard the words of the men. She is indeed a 30-year-old woman, single, and have f an ordinary appearance.
“Already, come on everyone, get back to work!” said Andi when he saw his colleagues starting to relax.
They then started to go back to their work again, while Carolina returned to her seat, just silent. She didn’t know what to do.
Am i going to spend my internship sitting still like this?
Shouldn’t the internship teach something to the intern? Well, that doesn’t mean Carolina wants to be taught anything either. Because she believed her abilities were higher than the people who were here.
“Sister,” suddenly someone called him, it was the man who had told him to call himself brother.
“Yes, Sir?” asked Carolina.
Will she finally be given her first assignment?
“You know there is BetaMart in front, right? Buy me cigarettes, please!” said the man then took out the money.
Carolina just stared at him in disbelief before finally taking the money.
“Oh, me as well, buy coffee in a bottle,” said another one.
Carolina just sighed softly before finally taking the money again.
Will her internship life be spent being an errand girl?!
