" Then? Do you want to tell this to others? " said Precious with a brave and challenging look
"No, I just want to ask you to stop. Whatever you are doing or feeling, you should stop now if you don't want to go any further and end up regretting it. I'm just warning you for the last time. This is my last concern for you. " Said Ben
Although Ben had warned her, Precious and Edward did not stop in a relationship behind Alice. They both like the tension they feel from their affair. Edward and Precious continue to meet behind Alice and spend the night together several times.
Their relationship continued for several years. Even until they graduate and Edward is finally engaged to Alice. They were in a relationship without getting the slightest suspicion from Alice. Until one day, Alice secretly visited Edward's apartment to surprise him on their anniversary day.
But as soon as she opened the door and went inside, Alice saw a shirt that seemed familiar to her lying on the floor in front of Edward's room. Alice could hear a noise interspersed with sighs from inside the room. Alice's mind became chaotic because many things appeared in her mind. Alice then held the door handle and ventured to open the door.
Alice was shocked and her heart broke to pieces. She saw with her own eyes, her fiance was having sex with her best friend. Feeling angry because of being betrayed by two people she loved. Alice clenched her fists then threw the cake she brought to the floor.
Edward and Precious were very surprised. They did not expect Alice to be caught in that condition. Alice who was very angry immediately left and Edward chased after her. Even worse, Edward knelt to apologize to Alice by saying that all this was a mistake. And he throws all the blame on Precious by saying that Precious keeps teasing him.
Precious never felt as bad as that day. She felt as if she were worse than trash. She sat quietly in the room while listening to Edward, who continued to blame her for Alice to forgive him. Precious might not have felt that bad if Alice had just scolded and slapped her.
However Precious knew that this day would come. The day Alice will find out about her affair with Edward. Precious was ready to accept all the risks since she decided to chase Edward and not stop seeing Edward even though she knew she had hurt her best friend. But Precious didn't expect Alice would leave without saying anything and make her feel so bad.
In the end Edward managed to maintain his engagement for continuing to beg and apologize to Alice. But Precious had lost her most precious friend because Alice never gave her the chance to apologize. Alice continued to avoid her and treat her like a stranger she did not know.
In a very busy office as usual. Alex continued to stare at Precious's empty chair. Alex wonders where Precious goes to leave her chair during office hours. Because he could not help his curiosity, Alex approached Liza who sat near Precious.
"Liza, do you know where Precious is? Why isn't she in her chair? " asked Alex
"Precious is doing the fieldwork given by the team leader." Liza answered
Alex then nodded his head and left, but only a few steps back to Liza again. Alex looks hesitant while looking around as if he wants to say something that nobody else should hear.
" What's the matter, sir?" asked Liza, aware of Alex's strange behavior
"I say this because a friend of mine asked me. I'm asking you because I really don't know the answer. " Alex said timidly
"Is this about personal matters? Romance? " Liza asked in a whisper and Alex answered with a nod of his head
“ My friend like a girl who work at the same office, but My friend don’t want to caused a scandal in the office because he was afraid that the girl would get into trouble. This is a story about my friend not me, don't misunderstand. " Said Alex
Alex thinks he managed to cover up his story as a friend's story. But that only made Liza clearer about the story about Alex himself, not his friend.
"So what do you think my friend should do?" Alex continued to ask
"Since this seems like a problem that no one else should hear, I will send the answer via email. So you can read it yourself safely. " Liza said in a whisper
Alex then put his thumbs up in thanks to Liza. Alex quickly returned to his room and waited for an email from Liza. Alex immediately lowered the window blinds of his room and locked the door of his room when he received an email from Liza, so no one could bother him to read the valuable email. Alex even prepared a notebook to note important things so he wouldn't forget.
The clock shows 5 p.m. and Precious finally returned to the office. After giving the signed letter of acceptance to the team leader, Precious was finally able to sit in her chair calmly. Liza was surprised to see Precious's face, which looked very tangled with swollen eyes after crying.
"Did something happen? Why do you look terrible like that? " Liza asked in a worried voice, holding Precious's face
Instead of answering Liza's question, Precious cried loudly and made everyone see it. Liza immediately hugged Precious and tried to calm her down. But ridiculous, Liza who had been trying to cheer up Precious was even crying.

Alex looked lethargic when he walked into the canteen and sat in one of the chairs. Alex even sighed as if he had a lot of problems. Actually Alex felt worried after he saw Precious crying. Alex wanted to console his idol, but he didn't know what to do.
Alex who looks glum seems to attract the attention of his best friend Robert and is also the Director of this company. Robert approaches Alex and sits beside him. But Alex, who was thinking about something else, didn't seem to realize that Robert was sitting next to him.
" What is wrong? Why do you look so gloomy like that? " asked Robert
Alex then turned for a moment then he sighed. Alex didn't even say anything and returned to daydreaming.
"Why do you look like someone who has love problems? Is this really because of romance? " Robert asked again
" What should I do? I do not know what to do." Said Alex sadly
"Who made you this much? You who didn't even glance at Stella became confused like this. Oh, is that the intern? What is her name? Oh, Precious? " said Robert guessing
"How do you know?" asked Alex, a little surprised
"How could I not know if you showed it so clearly. When she's interviewing you can't take your eyes off her and you keep smiling like a fool. It's obvious that you like her. " Said Robert
"Then, why again now? Did something happen? " asked Robert
"I saw her crying. I want to cheer her up but I don't know-how. " Alex said in a weak voice
"Why be confused? You just have to be by her side. Do you know what a woman needs most when she has a problem? Not someone who gives advice or encouraging words, but someone to listen. So approach her and keep on her side, wait until she talks first, "said Robert giving advice to his friend Alex
