Chapter 1 Between Desire and Necessity
Between Desire and Necessity tells the story of Dina, a professional working in an import-export company, who faces significant challenges when the pandemic strikes. Dina, a secretary and accountant with a degree from a prestigious university in Jakarta, has been part of the bustling work environment for two years. Besides her intelligence, Dina is also notably attractive, becoming the office's prima donna.
Dina's ideal figure for a secretary, with a height of 160 cm, tanned skin, and curly hair that adds to her charm, combined with her elegant wardrobe choices, enhances her image as an independent and sophisticated woman. Her success and appearance stir envy among many of her peers, though some criticize her slightly spoiled and mischievous demeanor.
Initially, the company where Dina worked was running smoothly and full of joy. However, the atmosphere changed when the COVID-19 pandemic hit. The deadly virus entered Indonesia through travel from China and spread rapidly. The impact was felt at Dina's company as the flow of goods was disrupted, business partners' trust declined, and the company faced financial difficulties. Eventually, some employees were laid off, and Dina's salary was cut.
As conditions worsened, the company's director, Mr. Agus, received the sad news that his wife had passed away from breast cancer, plunging him into despair. Mr. Agus decided to sell the company's assets to save it. Suddenly, an offer emerged from Mr. Hanks, a coal mining entrepreneur. Although this offer could save the company, the terms were tough: it involved Dina with Mr. Hanks, who had long desired her.
Dina was shocked to hear these terms. She felt torn between her duty to the company and the fear of the consequences of a relationship with Mr. Hanks. When Mr. Agus called her to discuss the offer, Dina felt anxious. The silence in the room was only interrupted by the ringing phone, leaving them in uncertainty.
Dina returned home with a chaotic mind. Though exhausted, her thoughts were filled with uncertainty about the company's and her future. Sitting in her rented home's living room with a blank stare, Dina contemplated all the possibilities and consequences of Mr. Hanks' proposal. On one hand, she felt burdened by the responsibility to save the company and her colleagues' jobs. On the other hand, she was uneasy about dealing with a man who clearly had inappropriate desires for her.
These thoughts made it hard for Dina to sleep. She tossed and turned in bed, trying to calm her turbulent mind. But every time she almost fell asleep, the image of Mr. Hanks appeared, bringing deep discomfort.
The next morning, Dina woke up with puffy eyes and a tired body. She decided to go to the office despite her heart being filled with worry and uncertainty. Her mood grew tenser when she saw Mr. Agus busy talking on the phone. After a while, Mr. Agus invited Dina to his office. With a tired and weary face, Mr. Agus greeted Dina and immediately brought up the important topic.
"Dina, I know this is a difficult decision for you," said Mr. Agus in a low, considerate voice. "But we don't have many options. I really need your help to overcome this issue."
Dina listened carefully, trying to hold back the wave of emotions hitting her. She knew that whatever her decision, there would be consequences to bear.
"I understand, Mr. Agus," Dina replied hoarsely. "But I need time to think it through."
Mr. Agus nodded, his face full of sympathy. "Of course, Dina. I don't want to force you into something uncomfortable. But please, consider it seriously. We all depend on you."
With a heavy heart, Dina left Mr. Agus's office and returned to her desk. She sat in front of her computer, but her mind kept drifting back to the same question: what should she do?
As time passed, days went by without Dina making a decision. She was caught in an endless cycle of thoughts, repeatedly weighing her considerations without finding a satisfying solution. The uncertainty began affecting her performance at work. She found it hard to concentrate and complete her tasks efficiently. Her colleagues also noticed the change in her behavior, though they didn't know what was happening.
Every day, Dina felt increasingly isolated and trapped in endless despair. She felt like she was stuck between two equally painful choices, with no clear way out. When night fell, Dina returned to her rented home with a heavier heart than before. She sat in the living room, staring into the darkness with a blank gaze. Her mind kept spinning, searching for answers to questions that remained unresolved.
As the night wore on, Dina felt more lonely and desperate. She felt like she had reached the lowest point in her life and didn't know how to rise again. Yet, amid the darkness, a glimmer of hope emerged within her. Despite the difficulty in believing it, Dina felt there might be a way out of this tough situation. She just needed to find out what it was and how to achieve it.
With newfound determination, Dina stood up and walked to her bedroom. Though she didn't know what would happen next, she had found a bit of light in the midst of the surrounding darkness.
