Rianti arrived on time. Although he had to face the drama of traffic jams, and also met a crazy rich man who was arrogant really too.
He went straight to the reception desk and greeted the other receptionist who was on shift with him that morning. Amanda was here soon. The two then stood up to greet the woman.
"Mom's morning." they said simultaneously.
"Again." replied Amanda as it passed.
He behaves like a boss to employees. And Rianti also felt that he did not need to be carried away. Because this is the world of work.
Amanda also did not want to be impressed to exaggerate the attitude towards her husband's brother. They want all workers to be treated the same.

"Hoayaa."
Azka and Afka crept here and there. Ryan let his two grandchildren play while he was doing office work.
"Hoayaa."
"Ehee."
The voices of the two laughed and looked like they were chasing. Ryan turned his head for a moment, then refocused on his laptop and work.
"Rubby."
A bump sounded. It turned out that Afka hit one of the dinner table posts. The surprised Ryan suddenly noticed. He asked if the baby would cry or not.
Seemed Afka just rubbed his head banged, with a baby-style swab that is irregular and funny. Then he came back to play.
Ryan laughed at all of that. He compares in memory with a small Ansel who is so crybaby.Malah sometimes very attention-seeking.
When his head hit and there was no one. Then Ansel will just shut up and continue playing. But when there is someone nearby or appears after he experienced the incident, then he will cry loudly.
At that time it felt like Ryan wrapped Ansel in a plastic wrap and put it in a snowball.
But one thing that became the attraction of Ansel is his funny and adorable face at that time.
So Ryan can't be cruel or rude to her. Even though he was such a dramatic baby.

"The person you're supposed to be dealing with is me."
Arka said on the phone, with a serious face. But suddenly Rio appeared then jogged in front of his face.
Arka tried hard to hold back the laughter. But Rio swayed increasingly barbaric, like a dancing cactus possessed by pinworms.
"Cuts."
The director stopped all that because both himself and all the crew also laughed at Rio's behavior.
"Lo is a bastard, Ri. That was really good, Anjir. I will repeat it."
"Because, Ka. Throughout filming today you actually mulu, wrong dong once in a while. No one is perfect" Rio said.
"Yes continues?. No one is perfect, should you make that mess up?"
Arka said as she held back a laugh and threw a slipper towards Rio. Rio dodged while giggling.
"Let's not be an arrogant man, Ka. If your days are too perfect, you can forget yourself and claim to be God."
Arka was getting upset, but kept laughing.
"It has nothing to do, Bambang" he said.
"It's about work, not self-cultivation" he continued.
"Yes, work cannot be perfect either. There must be a harm, let live many colors."
Rio just kept making Arka want to throw the other sandal. But now the young man approached the refrigerator provided on the set, to pick up a soft drink.

That day at the same time.
Someone was talking at the reception desk. Soon Rianti and his partner stood up.
"Congratulations, ang." he said intermittently.
He was shocked to see who was in front of his eyes. Same with that guy. Because the person is a driver of a luxury car that had hit the pedestal Rianti was riding.
"Damusic stuff here?" asked the man with a frown. His tone was so cynical and annoying.
"I'm the one who wants to ask. Why don't people know your manners, it's in this office?"
"Mulet."
A fellow receptionist reprimanded herself.
"This is Mr. Gareth, Amanda's business partner" said the colleague later.
At once Rianti was surprised and in disbelief. Gareth looked at him sharply.
"Amanda shouldn't hire a girl who doesn't know how to deal with Kramas."
Gareth told Rianti's partner. While Rianti's own face reddened so upset.
"Eee, sir. I'm taking it to Amanda's mom."
Rianti's co-worker immediately distanced Gareth from the reception desk. At once Rianti looks more upset and it feels like he wants to throw Gareth's head with a vase of flowers.
Gareth arrived at the top with a face that was not so pleasant to look at. This invited Amanda's question as the meeting leader. Coincidentally, the ones who arrived at the meeting room were just the two of them.
"What's up, Gar?" ask Amanda wonder.
"That's your new receptionist, can't it be replaced by another one?" ask her later.
Amanda frowned.
"You mean Rianti?" ask her later.
Gareth himself just found out if the girl was named Rianti.
"Whatever, I just don't like it" Gareth said again.
"Loh, why?" ask Amanda wonder.
"He's not polite."
"How polite?"
Amanda is really curious, and she intends to reprimand Rianti if the girl is indeed proven guilty.
Gareth then recounts the chronology of his encounter with Rianti while they were on the road. Amanda then sighed.
"That was outside the office, Gar. I can't rebuke him about it." Amanda said.
"Maybe you are also being disrespectful according to him. Because it is impossible that women will be impolite, if the men are polite." he continued.
Gareth actually blushed his cheeks hearing all that. He is in the wrong position now. He shouldn't have told Amanda that.
"After all as long as he's been my brother-in-law, he's been very kind."
Amanda issued a statement that surprised Gareth. He found out that Rianti was Arka's brother.
Before long the participants of the meeting were then present to fill the room. A follow-up meeting on their new project was finally held.
***
Afternoon.
Gareth left Amanda's office at the hour of his return. Because the meeting began after lunch and quite a lot of things they discussed, about the cooperation they established.
he wanted to take Amanda and take her home. But Amanda said she had been picked up by the driver.
Gareth was disappointed, but could not show his disappointment too far. He has nothing to do with Amanda at the moment.
It is impossible to show disappointment or jealousy. Because it is a strange thing for a business partner. Gareth finally decided to go home alone.
