Love for the Mentari

Day H

That important day has arrived. Riri had been busy since morning checking every detail of the preparations today.

All staff were seen working diligently, including Mr. Kanis who arrived earlier today than usual. He seemed busy directing some staff while decorating the park. The event will take place in the courtyard area of the villa, which is an open courtyard surrounded by lush trees. In ordinary days Yoga activities will be done here every morning. The place is sloping, with neatly arranged grass, and a very natural and beautiful view of the river.

On every walkway and around the Courtyard are installed terracotta with dim candles on each side. Some tables are set here.

Pak Kanis then accidentally noticed the busy Riri from a distance. He remembered his chat with Mr. Gilang a few days ago after confirmation of arrival on Day H by phone.

"Sir Kanis I am very happy for the reopening of Villa Lembayung. It turned out that my decision to sell this property to Miss Riri was the right decision"

"Father sir, I don't suspect it either. Although Bu Riri does not look ambitious but he is very careful and understands his wishes. He turned out to be very understanding of this field sir, and his communication was also amazingly good"

"I'm glad to hear that. Means according to my feeling when I met with Bu Riri that day. I believe Ms. Riri is a hard worker and committed. Hope everything goes well, sir. Support Bu Riri well yes sir, people as good as that need good and honest people as well" he said

"Father thank you, I'll see you later sir"

"Ok sir Kanis"

"It's a good thing that Miss Riri bought this property, if only someone else might be now me and the other staff are still trying to find work elsewhere" he muttered with a smile of relief

"Sir Kanis!, Miss Karin has come?" ask Riri to him. He was slightly surprised by the sudden question from Riri. Mrs Karin whom she meant was a senior sales marketing who had just joined a few days ago.

"mmm... It looks like mom, I just saw the vehicle parked in front"

"New name cards and sales kits, replacements that had misprinted at that time have come, right?"

"Oohh ma'am, business card and sales kit came yesterday. I checked the details, everything is correct. Sorry I forgot to report it. Soon I will bring Miss Riri's card to the office"

"Ok, oh yes sir don't forget to put one clear bowl, a box of Bu Karin cards and Kanis pack cards in the reception stand of invited guests in front" said Riri reminded Pak Kanis

"Good Mom"

"I go inside first sir, call me directly if there is anything important"

"Dad Mom, I understand"

Riri then went towards the villa he occupied to rest for a while.

The day went on, around 04:00 Riri was already looking ready with his suit and trousers are black with classic pieces.

His phone rang, he checked who was contacting him. Gia's name is making a call.

"Yes yak!" Answer it quickly

"Relie!!! I have arrived at the Villa. Where are you again?"

"Wait in the lobby, I'll be there now"

"Ok" replied Gia and hung up her phone

Riri hurried down to meet him

"Gia!!!" Sapa Riri after arriving at the Villa lobby while approaching him

Gia got up from her seat after putting the cold towel that was in her hand back into the elongated tray in front of her

"Wah Ma'am the boss is coming hahaha!!!" She hugged Riri tightly

"Ck! You ah" Riri took off her embrace

"It looks like our boss is ready for this big day"

"Hahaha what the hell yak?! I'm suddenly nervous"

"It also feels normal" said Gia while sitting back on the sofa lobby

"Hopefully, would you like to add another drink?" Said Riri while glancing towards the empty welcome drink glass that was given by the staff here

"You are so bad." he took a glance at the empty glass in front of him "Hahahaha the glass leaked, the feeling was drinking a new sip eh already abis aja"

Riri shook his head with a smile, calling a staff member on duty in the lobby to refill Gia's empty glass.

"Sirut will come, right?!" ask Gia later

"No, he has an important event with the Mayor"

"Huh?? Is that true?! At an event like this he instead chose to be with another man?!! What??!!" His words put up a surprised mimic like drama in a chase soap opera airing

"Hahahaha what a soap opera" said Riri chuckled

"Well, so you can not show the Director to the invited guests" he said sadly.

"Ish can't do that. Are you not sad?"

"No" Riri replied with a big smile showing her white teeth and neatly arranged on Gia

"Basic..." Gia could only shake in astonishment

As they chatted some of the staff on duty for today's event seemed ready in their respective positions. Likewise, Mr. Kanis and Ms. Karin seem to have started preparing to welcome guests who come.

"Here I want to know you as Manager and Senior Sales here while re-inspection. You have never seen the change of this Villa" Riri stood up and pulled Gia's hand to come with him.

"Ok" said Gia eagerly following Riri to descend towards the Courtyard. Meanwhile, the invited guests began to arrive one by one.

After they made the inspection, they started to join the invited guests. Gia was seen several times introducing Riri to his friends who both have businesses engaged in Tour and Travel services.

It also appears that Mr. Gilang who just arrived immediately approached Riri and regretted it.

"Congratulations, Miss Riri, I am really happy with the reopening of this Villa"

'Thank you sir, thank you also for coming today sir"

"Why not?!! This is the invitation I have been waiting for hahahaha. I was worried that Ms. Riri had forgotten to invite me" she chuckled

Riri also smiled "True, I almost forgot the tablets sir, fortunately sir Kanis reminded me. Oh yes you have never seen the change of this Villa, if you'd like I can take you for a little inspection?!"

"Maybehave but Bu Riri should stay here, let Pak Kanis just deliver"

"Ok I'm calling Mr. Kanis now"

"Oh don't bother Miss Riri, it's Mr. Kanis back there. I went there for a while huh" pointed it towards Pak Kanis who was chatting with someone

"Then please sir"

He nodded and quickly approached Pak Kanis.

Several guests from the media who were invited by Riri arrived together. They are invited by Riri by using a fake identity at hotel Z.

"Welcome Mrs Arista, Mr Keanu, Mrs Anggita, Mr Herman how are you?!" Riri greeted them with a smile. They also welcome the greeting from Riri with a smile but their faces look a little confused.

They never met Riri at all while working at hotel Z. They came this time in addition to duty also out of curiosity with the face of Riri Amalia whom they knew first.

"I am Riri Amalia or you know me by the name of Riri only"

Their faces looked gradually relieved, because finally their curiosity paid off today

"Aduhhh Bu Riri for several years we worked together for Hotel Z only this time we can finally meet. And even more surprising, Bu Riri knows the names of all of us" said Mr. Keanu with his sparkling style

"Dad, right ma'am we were all curious back then. How PR hotel Z did not want to meet us at all. Even had disappeared after that well" Bu Anggita nodded in the other direction

"Iyha Bu" said the others alternately

"Hahahaha anyway at that time I had a bit of a personal problem. But now we can finally meet here. I still remember the faces of my friends from the hahaha social media profile" Riri replied with a laugh

"Eh once met it turned out to be the owner of hahahaha property" said Bu Arista chuckled

"Ahh could be Mom, well.I just want to try something new. Hope everything goes well"

Miss Arista nodded

"May be launched ma'am. But this is really cool" said Mr. Keanu with a happy face

"Thank you sir, oh this is my business card" Riri handed them his business card one by one.

They also chatted back for a while. Riri also wants to start the event because the time has shown at 18:00. He is seen calling someone appointed by Mr. Kanis as the host.

As they climbed onto the small stage in the middle of the Courtyard, Riri seemed a little stunned by the frenzied chatter of invited guests around her. He did not expect at all that the invited guests who came would be this many. The feeling of being moved, excited, nervous and excited was mixed in his heart.

Gia is also seen preparing her camera to record live today's event for Damar. When contacted via video call Damar's face looks tense because of worrying Riri

"His face does not need to be tense, Riri will be fine darling" he said with a smile

"Dad, I hope everything goes well today, I'm here badly"

"Hahahaha duh relax, Riri is smart so there is nothing to worry about"

"Dad, I know. I want to see now, baby. Please"

"Wait on" replied Gia. He called Damar and pointed his camera at Riri
