HANDSOME CEO LOOKING FOR BLESSINGS

Chapter 38 THE FRIENDSHIP

Mamih keeps a bowl of pea-coated lilok on the dining table. There are also bakwan vegetables, cireng and batagor. This food is to welcome the return of Derri from RS.

Anna joins her family at the dinner table. He asked his mother and sister for attention because of the announcement.

“Whataa ? DROPOUT ?” said Derri shouting

“You cry cry like him now even break up?.” said mamih

“What is the cause of Om Sonny case?.” said Rangga

Todara sodara's note: Rangga calls all Rye's sisters and sisters-in-law as om and aunt. He followed Joy who became “their ally” in virtual games. Some of them are even older than mamih hehehe.

Anna explained that the incident to her family did not want to happen again. Derri and Rangga consider it unfair for Rye. But mamih understands.

" Yes, if that's your decision. Just a message do not let you be hostile. If the soul mate is not going anywhere" said mamih.

Before going to bed, Derri video calls with Rye.

“Bro sorry you guys have to break up. It can not be defended ?.” said Derri

“Kakak has begged de. But your brother still wants to break.” said Rye with glassy eyes, "sister also asked for a ya maap. Your family has to suffer because of Roby and Sonny" Rye said

Derri was so moved to see the calm and dignified handsome man look fragile. They talked for a while and then said goodbye.

Derri lay down while looking at the sky of the room. He is determined to reunite Rye and Anna.

Riska has started counseling with dr. Faridic. Today is the second counseling. HP must be silent and stored in a bag during counseling.

“How does Mbak Riska feel at the moment ? have you made a decision ?.” said dr. Farid

dr. Lisna and dr. Farid did not pry what Riska's boyfriend's name was. They let Riska come clean on her own. It is a sign that Riska's boyfriend is a known person by the Green Lestari circle and even these two doctors.

“I'm still considering doc. I was gathering courage to convey hope to her doc.” Riska said

" What makes it difficult to convey hope?" said dr. Ridwan

“He never asked and I fear he gets angry when I talk.” says Riska lowered her head

“Does Mbak Riska love herself ?.” says dr. Farid

“Yes of course doc. But no one loves me.” says Riska

“Do you want to learn to love yourself ?.” said dr. Farid

Riska nodded

"I'll have a follow-up session with dr. Lisna for next week huh. "said dr. Farid

Riska checks messages in WAnya. There are some messages. But there was one message that caught his attention. Message from Adnan. It's been three weeks that Adnan hasn't told him to come. First because of Riska on the field. Second, Riska was hospitalized and counselling this one week. You're cured?, so the message sounds. Riska read it a few times. His heart is flowering. Is Adnan now starting to pay attention.

Riska arrived at Adnan's rented house. Adnan opened the door. Wry face. This is nothing new for Riska. Adnan told Riska to take off her shirt. Adnan worked on it without heating. This is also common for Riska. A WA who asked if he was cured or not, it was only for his purposes. Aware Risk…

Rye thought hard how she could bring back Anna into her arms. He remembered Anna's word that they could eat or ngeteh together as friends. An idea flashed through his mind. He smiled widely with his eyes twinkling.

“Hallo Mr. Ben. I was in Town P. Can we meet ?.” said Rye

“Oh course. How about 4 pm ?.” said Mr Ben there

4 P.m., Cafe Lovely, Hotel Andromeda.

“Thank you Mr. Ben was ready to see me this afternoon. To the point, sir. From now on I have an office in Kota P precisely in this hotel. It makes it easy for me to go places. I want my company to be a role model for an eco-friendly, gender-responsive business. I want to add our CSR funds for SOP development and program guide.” said Rye. Then he paused for tea.

“I highly commend Anna's intelligence in proposing the framework of this program at the beginning. So, I want you to assign him for the next 6 months. He immediately worked with me. I'll give you additional funding so you can hire additional staff for research and policy. Thus, Anna can focus on working with me. How do you agree ?.” said Rye at length

“Well you've explained at length. I can only say..okay !.” said Mr Ben while laughing.

Rye was very happy and laughed. They agreed the details of the contract will be discussed by managerial staff from both sides

#Monday at PT. Eka Prakarsa

The staff meeting was pretty tense. Stefani is inflamed when she hears of Rye's plan to move office to P City. Rye would only occasionally go to the site as needed. Rye appointed Thomas, HRD Manager as general manager or GM. The HRD manager was replaced by Fredy Mangat, the regional son. He was recruited from a branch company Erlangga Group in East Kalimantan.

“I think what Mr. Rye did as CEO or President is a natural thing. Many other companies have offices also in the provincial capital. Our company very well opened two offices.” said Bu Efrensi, Logistics Manager.

“But Anna why should work at the head office with the President ?. He should be working under me, the CSR.” division, Stefi protested

“Quite Bu Stefi !. You've crossed the line. Mr. Rye had explained that Anna's work was for the internal system of the company. He doesn't have to go to the field. The cost and time spent are more efficient. Regardless, the President has already made his decision. Your task is to receive and run.” said Fredy reprimanding Stefi.

“Enough enough. Stefi I will not repeat my explanation. Let's continue on the agenda of the next meeting.” said Rye kalem

#Same day at the Green Lestari NGO office

Adnan and Jamilah are in a meeting with Ben

“Why should Anna have an office in the President's office ? I think it's weird. He has an office here aja.” said Adnan

“I don't see any problem with that. He is based there for time efficiency in discussing and getting approval for his work.” said Mr. Ben coldly

“If nothing else, make sure the contract has been signed this week.” continued Mr. Ben

Anna came to Rye's penthouse with a pouting face. Rye opened the door with a face of a sumringah

“This is your mode, right ? CEO time to make SOP. That's the manager's job!.” Anna said

“This came instead of suave. It's even sewot. It's up to me dong. I own the company.” said Rye kalem

"Yes it's up. Where do we start ? anna said snorting

“From here.” Rye said as she pointed to a dining table full of dishes of various pieces of fruit, apple pie, various appetizing mini-breads, and cheese cornet risoles.

“Bou Bei !.” Anna said exasperatedly

“Iya dear ?.” says Rye sumringah

Anna is getting angry. He moved and walked towards the door. Rye rushed after him. He overtook Anna and stood blocking the door. They look at each other. Anna threw away face

“You are not happy to see me?.” asked Rye

“Not that. But come on ... when you want to mess up your work just to meet me ?.” Anna said with a concerned look

“So. I'll turn the world upside down if I can. So, I'll be with you all the time. Keep no one bothering us.” said Rye with a million-meaning gaze

Oh don't look at that ! please God ! inner Anna

Anna threw her face away, then looked down

“Hei..don't be sad dong. Kok lowered her head ?.” Rye said as she lifted Anna's chin with her thumb and index finger.

Anna removed both of Rye's fingers from her chin. He held it for a while. Rye just shut up. Anna let go of her grip, then hugged the man of her dreams. Rye is very sad.

“We have to talk. Seriously !.” Anna said as she took off her embrace.

“If we want to meet business, we must be professional. Let's make the rules. First, Don't call me dear !.” Anna said firmly

“Well you call me Bou Bai. That means dear.” said Rye holding a smile

Anna remained silent. His face blushed like a tomato. Rye smiled triumphantly.

Anna tried to rise from her embarrassment and began to propose rules.

“Sorry..I will not repeat it. We work in the meeting hub, not in the penthouse. My work hours are the same as regular office hours. I work in my office when you're out of town. It is not negotiable !.” said Anna firmly

“This is whose boss the hell is ? you make the rules. Can not be bargained anyway ?!.” said Rye pura pissed. His heart is amused.

“Take it or leave it” said Anna unmoved

“Iya yes..” says Rye relented

“So what is the division of work ?.” said Anna was happy

“You work, I skawasin.” said Rye as she took two glasses of juice

“Kok is it?.” Anna said protest

“Your job is to make SOPs and guidelines. It's my job to review your work, give your approval, and get the finance department to pay. Quite obvious ?.” said Rye while giving apple juice to Anna.

Anna's a little careless. He forgot about his professional position.

Anna's been working in Rye's office for a week. He was amazed at Rye's commitment to working professionally. Daniel's in office with them. Secretary Rye comes twice a week to sign documents.

Rye left for the site just one day and she left in the afternoon and returned to the city P in the morning. So he keeps meeting Anna. He was busy working from a business phone to a teleconference in the meeting room of the next hub. He really did not want to lose Anna from his sight.

#Second week they work together

“Pak this SOP draft I have made. I just printed at the business center. Daniel's buying a new laser jet. He might come back later in the afternoon. I was on the phone, so Daniel sent me a message.” Anna said

“Why do you call me father continue. We're just two of us. You are angry ?.” said Rye was not happy

"I'm not angry. I just have to train myself to call my dad. Don't be like last week, when you came to my office. I'm wrong to call on. I'm so ashamed at the ceremony of the temen and Mr. Ben.

Rye smiled in memory of the incident Anna clumsily mistakenly called him Pap and Mas.

“Ya. But from now on we eat in Penhouse huh. You see for yourself, if we eat at a restaurant, many people greet and invite you to meet. Please..” said Rye weld.

Anna agreed and ordered a meal at Penhouse. Anna used to lie down in the chair before the dzuhur prayer. Rye looked at him

“Why keep worrying?” said Anna is still lying

“I miss you” Rye said with a longing gaze

“We meet every day kok miss.” Anna said with a smile. Inwardly, he knew what Rye meant.

Rye just shut up. He looked at Anna. Anna felt sad to see that sad look. He misses her too. Annapun chose to avoid. He prays to pray.

#Third week

Rye was thrilled that Daniel was on a field trip to Kab. X. He accompanied the ministry and Kadis ESDM provinces. So the next three days, he could be alone with Anna.

Anna successfully completed the SOP revision. Rye is a true professional. He provided notes and clarification requests on each SOP document. The notes in the form of inputs and corrections are very clear, and detailed. Anna was amazed at him. He is indeed a CEO whose inner qualities.

The elevator to penhouse

“Wah cool today we eat empal barrel. Chef's offer is very fitting with the desired. How are you Sir ?.” said Anna excited

“Kok you still call me sir.” said Rye annoyed

Rye lets Anna get out of the elevator first. They're going into the penthouse to the dining table.

At the dining table..

“Father wants to eat peyek spinach ?.” asked Anna while taking peyek spinach in the jar for the second time.

Rye just shut up. He ate a little. He's headed for the workspace. Anna did not finish her meal. He hurriedly drank and walked quickly after Rye.

“Why the hell ? how did diem go ? angry ?.” said Anna while pulling Rye's hand.

Rye stopped and turned to Anna

“You really want to break up with me huh ? Call the father continue.” said Rye annoyed

" Yes, how else. We have to move on. Try if you have a new boyfriend. I still call you Bou Bei. It's hard" Anna said

“If I have no intention of finding a new boyfriend. You broke me up. So you might have a new boyfriend? I'd rather just die.” said Rye was getting angry

Anna did not answer. He starts to get upset with Rye's behavior which he thinks is childish.

“Iya I want to find a new girlfriend. Please if you want to die.” said Anna sewot

Rye fell silent. His face shows how much he is hurt.

“Ok. Please go back to your work place. Starting tomorrow please work in your office.” said Rye coldly and she also passed to her room.

Anna closed her face with both hands and sighed. He felt sorry for the words he said.

Anna goes into Rye's unlocked room. Rye's on her way to the walk in closet. He wanted to wash his face to make it fresher and relieve anger.

“Bou Bei I asked maap. I'm outrageous to talk like that.” said Anna following Rye.

Rye doesn't tease. He got into the walk in closet. Anna hugged him from behind.

“Maapin me. You may punish me but not corporal punishment.” Anna said

Rye let out a breath. His anger was reduced by 70%. He was also amused by Anna's statement.

“Keep what punishment is appropriate if the physical should not be ?” ask Rye. He let Anna keep holding him from behind.

“Yes you can cut my salary. I'll tell you how much each payday is. I still don't have to eat and snack. Minumpun no need.” said Anna would cry

Rye refrained from laughing. The anger is 100% gone%. He let go of Anna's hand and turned around. He put on an angry face. Anna looked at him with fear.

“You hurt my heart so deeply. That's the only punishment?.” said Rye grinding her teeth

“Te-rus ka-you want what ?.” says Anna is afraid

“How about this.” said Rye while sipping Anna's lips deep and wet. He let go

“Gini physics can be ?.” asked Rye with a sharp gaze

Anna nodded. Rye pulled Anna's hand and put her to bed. Anna accepted her sentence obediently. Sometimes he is more aggressive.
