Approaching Max

The morning in Xena's small house, as usual before five the morning Xena opened her eyes. Wake up early to prepare yourself for work.

"Hoaem! Finally my report is finished," said Xena, covering her mouth because she yawned.

Last night he stayed up late again, completing assignment reports from his supervisor until one o'clock at night. Now even though she had just woken up, she still felt sleepy. However, she forced his body because she had to work.

"I feel so tired." Xena muttered as she forced her eyelids open with two fingers. "Come on, don't be sleepy. You have to work and work, Xena."

"The system sends a new punishment. One of your senses of sight is not working."

Xena was shocked. Just as she set foot on the floor, the system shocked her first. Before her eyes, a notification appeared again from the square screen, showing a line of fairly thick black writing.

"Approach Max Liam by taking Felix to work."

Xena rubbed her face. She thought her eyesight still wasn't working when she woke up. In fact, the system had already disabled one of his senses of sight.

"After one of my senses of hearing didn't function now one of my senses of sight. If it continues like this how can I live?" Xena shouted.

"Quickly complete the mission. All your five senses will function again as before."

"But there's no way I can bring Felix to work? Are you crazy, Agent Yan? I'm a new employee at the company. If I bring my child while working, the supervisor will scold me to the bone. Not to mention Max Liam. Didn't you see yesterday when he was angry he's like a mad lion who's going to pounce on me. This is the first time I've worked, I don't want to get fired just because I brought Felix to work," said Xena, speaking curtly.

The system didn't care about Xena's complaints. The task must be completed, otherwise Xena will get punished again.

Being threatened like that, Xena started to get scared. Considering again what she should do next.

"There is no written rule that it is forbidden to bring children to the office. Previously, Miss Sera had also brought her child, even if only for a short time. Obviously at that time Mr Ong didn't scold her, because he really liked Miss Sera, who was an exemplary employee. Meanwhile, I was just a new employee who often made mistakes? Moreover, that fierce lion, it's likely that he will be very angry later."

"You will not be fired, Miss Xen. Max Liam really sympathizes with Felix."

"I'm not sure. But okay, I'll try now. Besides, I also feel sorry for Felix if he is left alone at home."

Xena came to Felix's room, woke the little boy and said she would take him to the office.

"I'll go with Mom anywhere," answered Felix very happily.

"Look Felix, Mom has prepared a very cute new dress for you, it fits your body perfectly. This way the fierce lion won't say I'm irresponsible anymore," said Xena while showing a cute little sailor-like suit.

Felix nodded in agreement, that morning Xena immediately bathed him intending to take Felix to the office. She doesn't care if there are new problems later.

***

At the prosperity company at eight in the morning. Xena arrived on time and took Felix's hand towards her study. Throughout the journey to the room, all pairs of eyes did not turn to look at them.

"Good morning Uncle and Aunty," said Felix as he entered the room.

Felix looks clean and smells good wearing his new clothes. Very much better than two days ago. The little boy, aged around five years, smiled kindly and greeted all the employees. The small sailor suit makes him body even cuter. It looks very cute and adorable and manages to steal the attention of other employees.

"Look there's a little child here," shouted one of the employees with an astonished expression.

Several employees immediately surrounded Xena and Felix when they entered the room. They scrambled to see Felix, many of them touched his cheeks, even pinched him because they were excited.

"Miss Xen, who is this little boy? Wow, he's really cute. Look at his cheeks, round and full like buns. What's his name?" asked one of Xena's coworkers.

"Ouch, that hurts," thought Felix. Even though he was in pain from being pinched, Felix still managed to smile politely.

"This little boy is my son. His name is Felix," said Xena with a smile.

Hearing Xena's confession. They were stunned, not expecting that Xena already had children. They thought Xena was a single woman.

"Hello Felix, you are very cute and adorable." Some of Xena's co-workers still enjoyed holding her cheeks, poking their fingers into Felix's cheeks. There are also those who like holding Felix's natural blonde hair. Surrounding Felix as if he were their new toy object. "Her face is like a doll."

"They're like monsters, I don't like them pinching me!" Felix thought, trying to hide his body so it wouldn't be used as a toy object.

"Wow, Xena, I didn't think you could have a child as handsome and adorable as Felix. Surely his father is also very handsome," said Xena's female co-worker.

Xena only responded with a faint smile. Seeing Felix, they continued to pinch him. Xena hurriedly pushed him away.

"Thank you, uncle and aunty. However, I don't have a father. I want to come with mother to look for father here," said Felix innocently.

Hearing that, Xena quickly covered Felix's mouth. "It's not like that, my son is too innocent to say whatever he likes."

"Oh, you're looking for a Father? So you don't have a Father, Felix?"

Felix nodded quickly. His words just now made Xena's forehead sweat with embarrassment. Immediately, she took Felix to his desk. Xena doesn't want her coworkers to think more negatively.

"Felix, sit here. Mom will meet Mr. Ong first," said Xena while taking the report made last night.

Mr Ong, the supervisor, came into the room. He looked displeased when he saw Xena bringing a small child into the room. At that moment he called Xena and asked her to send her child home before Max Liam found out.

"Miss Xen, aren't you single? Why bring your child to the office?"

"Yeah, I can't leave my child alone at home."

Heard a commotion in .the employee room. Someone reported the incident to Max Liam. Without Xena realizing it, Max Liam had been watching her from the entrance. He looked cold and serious.

"Good morning, CEO Max," said Mr Ong in greeting. He just realized that Max Liam had entered their room.

"It's bad, it looks like he's going to get angry again!" Xena thought as she covered Felix's body behind her.

Max Liam only answered with a small nod. As he walked in, his eyes were still focused on looking at Xena. Mr Ong looked shaking, he thought his boss would scold Xena. Automatically he will be hit. Before everything happened, he had to find his face first so he could wash his hands.

"Sorry, CEO Max. I warned Miss Xen not to bring her child to the office. But she didn't pay attention," said Mr Ong approaching Max Liam, looking for a face.

Max Liam continued to walk towards Xena. Then she moved her body aside so as not to cover Felix. "Move!"

The figure of the little boy that Max Liam saw two days ago is now very handsome and clean. Max Liam saw a lot of changes in Felix today.

“Hello, Uncle. We meet again," said Felix, smiling showing his teeth.

"I can explain everything, CEO Max," said Xena, afraid of being scolded again.

"No need!" Max Liam answered curtly.

Felix, who felt that Xena was in trouble because of him, immediately came forward and stood in front of Xena. "Mom was worried about leaving me at home. So, Mom brought me here," said Felix.

Felix's eyes were very clear. Looking at Max, Liam seemed to beg him not to scold his mother. Meanwhile, Max Liam felt De Javu with Felix's gaze, as he had often seen before.

"Oh no, Felix ...!" Xena thought in fear.

The whole room suddenly fell silent. Mr Ong and other colleagues suspected that their boss would scold Xena and might even fire her. Meanwhile, Xena herself looked very resigned even though she was already shaking violently.

However, unexpectedly. Their thinking is wrong. After hearing Felix's words, Max Liam immediately hugged the little boy. He said very softly. "Don't worry, I will take care of you."
