Andriana pulled Rendy from the crowd, they seemed to be fussing over something, there were some staff shocked by their leader's sudden arrival.
"What's this about? Why is it so violent outside, is there something that I don't know about?!" ask Rendy, looking angry.
"Sorry, Sir.. During this time there is no incident or any problem, we work according to the rules and professionally, according to our SOP. But there are indeed some of the other parties who are not satisfied with our service.
We have tried our best and as much as possible in serving people, sometimes there are those who are impatient in waiting for their submission process.
Because we can't be rash about making decisions either, and we have to really assess and research which people are worth helping and which ones aren't worthy of receiving this help," said one of the foundation leaders.
"It looks like they did just that to bring down this foundation, sir" said one of the other staffers.
"meaning?" ask Rendy not to understand.
"A few days ago, we heard people telling us about the vices of this foundation when it was led by Elena's mother, and they still think that this foundation is still the same as it used to be.
Since then, we have all worked hard so that this foundation can be trusted again by the public and other communities.
But that's how, once bad it will still be considered bad by others, even though we've tried hard, but the assessment is in their hands" the staff replied with a bow.
"The assessment is not of them, although it is undeniable that the name of this foundation has fallen at that time, but we can fix everything in our own way.
Do not be afraid if we are not wrong, let us prove together if this foundation is still the best in serving the community in need. Let's work harder and serve them better.
And do not be afraid to defend the self-esteem of this foundation, do not want to be denigrated continuously, especially they also turned out to still need us too. Let's spirit!" said Rendy gave hope to his staff.
All of them who were there got excited again and prepared to face the people who were making a fuss outside.
"Sir, we have been waiting for a long time for the decision of this foundation regarding lending funds for our business, even though it has been a very long time!"
"My son needs money for treatment, but there is no help from this foundation even though the application letter has been sent!"
"How are the children at our school, sir?!"
It was part of the complaints of those people, they looked very angry and upset, Rendy was still quietly listening to all their complaints, and while judging them.
He received several files belonging to the applicants for help, he was also previously given an explanation of why their application or request was rejected.
"Father, we refuse your loan because it exceeds the limit amount of funds we provide. And sorry, this is not a bank sir. We do not give out loans of that size, especially without collateral.
We provide loan funds for MSMEs with small loans without interest, while the father's business includes a large business, you should be able to do loan in the Bank only" said Rendy explained for loan rejection.
"For medical expenses, mothers can reapply for treatment at our hospital, from treatment, hospitalization to other facilities we free for those who really can afford it.
If you only need medicine, we want to see what kind of medicine resumes the doctors recommend, if the drugs are in our stock, and if they are in our supply, then we will give for free until the mother's child is fully healed, and remains in our supervision, and of course accompanied by a doctor from us" continued Rendy again.
"And for the education of school children, isn't the cost of school in our foundation free, ma'am? Including uniforms, writing equipment, and other needs have been prepared.
And I'm sure that from the looks of all of you here, you can send your children somewhere else that's nicer, more expensive. Why do you expect this foundation?
Because this foundation is reserved and prioritized for the poor, and those who really need it, even if he doesn't attend our foundation we help him meet the requirements." Rendy replied at length to all of them.
Everything is silent and just looking at each other, it seems true said the staff, if anyone deliberately brought them to vilify the good name of the foundation.
While Andriana was unceasingly watching someone among them, she looked at that person with a disappointed, and annoyed look.
After being given direction by Rendy, the men finally followed his lead and some went home empty-handed, because they were not worthy of the help of the foundation.
Rendy and Andriana entered the office again after all the business with the rioters had been completed, suddenly there was a hand that drew Andriana.
"What are you doing here? Do you know this foundation is so bad, so many corrupt events and deeds here!" uncle said.
"Uncle, now this foundation is not like that anymore, since this foundation was taken over by Mr. Rendy and bu Reva, this foundation again serves as where it should be" said Andriana remained professional.
"When do you think that way?! Have you forgotten what the parents of this child did to your parents? Is it just a little money, you're blind?!" yell that guy.
"Uncle, please! Don't make a scene, I'm here working, and my job is good, lawful, and helps people a lot. What's wrong with this?
For father and mother, it was all their destiny that they had to live like that. Mother and father died not because of them, it was their destiny, and their children are innocent by all the deeds of their parents" Andriana explained to her uncle.
"Andriana, who is he? I heard you say his name uncle? And what does this have to do with all this? Please explain, let me understand what you're talking about!" sahut Rendy too.
"He's my uncle, Malik his name. The late father's younger brother, we had been living together while the late father was still living with his mother.
But Malik's uncle is married and has a family of his own, he has not accepted the death of his father and mother, which he thinks was caused by his father and mother, he means Elena.
I can't believe your father would do that to my parents, but if it was Elena I would. And he doesn't approve of me working here, since I was in your father's company he warned me a lot.
He's good, Rendy. My uncle loved me very much, because he raised me too, he didn't want me to be in this family, and you know very well the good name of your late father was ruined by all the events of the past, she doesn't want me to get involved more deeply in your family" Andriana said shyly of saying all that.
"It's okay, it's only natural that he still thinks that way, because it's all because of his late father and Elena. But now everything is different, me and my brothers will fix everything, if necessary we are ready to do anything to penetrate the mistakes of the past" said Rendy again.
"You think with money you can solve all the problems, you're right your father didn't do anything to my brother and his wife, but he knows all about what his wife did.
And he just kept quiet, just as he was involved with everything. And your father purposely brought Andriana to work with him to make amends first.
But I can't take it, I think it's time for you to get out of here. You can work in the company uncle works, you are a smart and talented child, many companies are willing to pay you high" said his uncle while pulling the hand of Andriana again.
"Or-but uncle." andriana doesn't know what to do with the person she respects so much.
"Remember all his mother's treatment, your mother died because of her actions and I'm sure your father did, and I will never forgive him, much less until you have to be here with this son of a murderer!" said uncle fiercely.
"Sir, I and my brothers are different from them, as I said earlier, if there is another way that can make up for all of those mistakes, I can do that all of you from your origin, you calm down again.
And Elena wasn't my mother, not the woman who raised us, she never considered us her children.
And, I intend to marry Andriana, I hope uncle will accept and bless us" said Rendy sure.
"I know, I know everything, Andriana is the only family I have other than my son and wife. I don't want him to suffer, if you can prove everything without having to use your money and power, I'll consider my blessing to you" his uncle said coldly.
After that he left from there, actually the uncle was very good, he did not want his only nephew to get into trouble later, he said, she just wanted Andriana not to have the problems her late sister had.
"My uncle's good, Rendy. He just learns from the past, still thinking if this is all still the same as it used to be." Andriana tried to explain it to Rendy.
"Yes, I understand. And I understand very well what is in his mind, I will prove everything if I am different from what he thinks" said Rendy again full of determination.
"Are you sure? Remember my uncle's words, you can prove all your words without using money and power, can you?" ask Andriana again.
"Can, what I can't. Especially for an Andriana whatever I'm gonna do!" rendy said with sumringah.
Andriana just smiles knotlessly at Rendy's words, she doesn't know how hard her uncle educates her, it seems like Rendy will be tested more than she imagined.
"It's okay, itung-itung pranks it once in a while! Consider it a form of apology from him." he muttered with an amused smile.
