It's not my fault for taking your wife
BSMI 55's
Today is the first time Desta has entered the office again after nearly two weeks in a detention cell. He was able to breathe free air after Allan dropped the charges, and also his parents paid some money as collateral.
That morning he rushed into the office building where he worked. Last night his best friend, Rendy, told him that Desta's promotion was likely to be canceled due to domestic violence that ensnared him. And of course a well-known company like the place where he works does not want his name tarnished due to the reputation of one of the bad employees.
Desta was trying to ask for an opportunity from the boss.
"Rpa ... Please give me another chance. What happened yesterday was just a misunderstanding, and I'm not entirely at fault."
Mr. Ardan stopped his steps for a moment, then looked at Desta. "Sorry Desta. In this case I can't help much. I regret your image that has to be damaged because of a problem like this."
"But, Mr ...It's just a misunderstanding. The evidence against me has been dropped."
"I'm sorry, but this is already a board decision. I am just an intermediary who helps promote you. Decision, it's in their hands."
"Is there no chance for me anymore, sir?" Desta's face looked clear. He hopes to take the position of manager.
Mr. Ardan took a long breath. Although Desta's reputation was damaged by the cases that ensnared him, but he had a fairly good performance and was always satisfactory.
"Desta, you know I actually want you to occupy that now-empty position of marketing manager. For me your performance is very good. But I can't do anything anymore now. Except ..."
"Except what, sir?" ask Desta curiously.
"Unless you can prove your eligibility to occupy that position. Come with me to the room." Mr. Ardan stepped towards a room followed by Desta behind his back.
"Please sit down!"
"Thank you, sir."
Mr. Ardan then sat in his great chair. He explained something to Desta seriously.

"You know the May-Day company stands as a form of his founder's love for health. Especially for pregnant women and children."
"I know, sir," Desta replied while nodding.
"Good." He grabbed a map from the table and shifted in front of Desta. "That's why the company concentrates on the production of health foods for pregnant women and children. The map you hold contains data about some new products in our company that will be launched early next month."
"Desta, I leave the promotion and marketing of this new product in your hands. If you manage to increase sales, maybe it will be a consideration of the board of directors."
Desta's face immediately sparkled hearing Mr. Ardan's words. It is not easy to get the position of manager that he has long sought, especially there are many rivals.
"Good, Sir. I'll try as much as I can."
"But I don't promise. At least I've been trying to help you. I'll also talk to Beni. Hope he can help you. Mr. Beni is quite close to the owner as well as the largest shareholder in this company. "
"Once again I thank you for your trust."
Mr. Ardan nodded with a friendly smile. "No problem. Hope you don't disappoint me."
"Surely, Sir!"

Desta walked out of Mr. Ardan's room with a smile that was expanding. He can feel relieved to get the golden opportunity, even though it must be with an uphill struggle.
The clap landed on the shoulder, making Desta jump.
"How's it?" ask Rendy.
"I was given the same opportunity Mr. Ardan. But he said it depends on the board of directors again."
"Patience and do your best. You deserve to be in the position of manager." They then walked towards the elevator which would lead them to the top floor. "Just calm down. As soon as you step up, I'm sure Giany will want to be referred to you."
Desta let out a frustrated breath. "Giany's not a madwoman in office."
"But if asked to choose between a regular doctor and a manager, any woman would choose a manager ..."
"But Giany and I are officially divorced."
"As long as she is not married to another man, opportunities will always be there. Just relax."
