Frans pacing - mandir in front of Irene who looked at him.
"Here you go, Frans. Don't be like this, Mama's so dizzy to see it!" said Irene.
Frans is putting on her hair. "I just don't think, Ma. It turned out that all this time my efforts had been in vain! I won't be able to get rid of Ken. Let alone eject his name from the company, lowering his position can not!" frans gusar said.
"Maybe you've achieved enough here, Frans!" irene said she tried to encourage the child but Frans was surprised to hear the mother's words.
"Mama said what? Is my achievement enough?" The man nodded quickly. "No, Ma! I can't be under Ken! In vain dong all my efforts all this time!"
"Yes, how else .. Ken is always above you" Irene said.
"Ma ... Now what do I do? Mama don't dampen my spirits for more than Ken like this, dong!" Frans sat down while supporting his bowed head with both hands.
"Already, Frans. Just accept all this! Your position is now also good in Papa's company."
"But Ken is above me" he lamented.
"Yes, Papa said it was Ken's absolute right, Frans!"
"Yes, and I just know now about it, Ma! For years I have been looking for that position! Arkhh!" Frans punched the handle of the sofa beside him because he felt too stupid.
Irene took a long breath. "Your mother has no plans for anything else, Frans!" ogre.
Frans suddenly lifted his face, his cunning smile on its back with glittering eyes. He got a thought suddenly.
"I know Ken's weakness, Ma! Maybe with this he will lose!" he said confidently.

Zahra turned her head as the door of her room was knocked from outside.
"Han, aren't you having lunch?" Dewi, Zahra's office friend asked the pink-hijab woman.
"Yes, wait a minute, Wi."
The goddess approached Zahra's table. "What's busy?" tanyanya while looking at the activities carried out by Zahra.
"Oh this .. there will be a meeting with the client after lunch hour. I'm just writing down the details that I want to talk about just so I don't forget,"
The goddess of mangosteen.
"Udah, come on!" Zahra got up from her seat and grabbed the arm of the Goddess. They walked together to get off the floor where their office was.
"What do you want to eat?" ask Zahra to the Goddess while walking slowly.
"What, deh." replied the Goddess.
Up in front of the elevator, they cross paths with Zaki who seems to want to have lunch as well along with some of their male-office colleagues as well.
"Where do you eat, Wi?" adly's greeting to Zahra and the Goddess.
"Not yet to know," said Dewi quickly.
"Just go, yuk! mumpung Deka is on his birthday.." timpal Rado and Deka who were called his name also immediately nodded to the words of his colleague.
"Where, Han?" The goddess whispered in Zahra's ear, asking for her opinion. "You will, yes, eat for free, not to be denied!" continued.
Zahra is actually very uncomfortable with this situation, knowing herself she is an introverted girl, despite already hanging out with fellow female friends in the office, she has not mingled with the opposite sex. Plus, among them there is Zaki who seemed to be silent without chiming in the words and offers of his colleagues.
Not ready Zahra thought, it turns out that Dewi had already agreed to Rado's offer and his friends.
The six of them, Zahra, Dewi, Zaki, Adly, Rado and Deka immediately took the same elevator to go to the ground floor.
"Where to eat? Don't be far from the office!" chirps Goddess.
"At the cafe across the street, yeah!" answer the Deka who intends to treat them all.
Arriving at the cafe, they began ordering food and chatting lightly, of course, who talked a lot with Rado and the others were Dewi, not Zahra who was a lot silent.
"Han .. This abis there's a meeting at Ruby's Restaurant, right?" ask Zaki to Zahra.
"Yes" Zahra replied briefly.
"Bareng, huh? Mama called me earlier, she did not go to the office today and asked me to replace her in the meeting later," Zaki explained.
"Why doesn't Aunt Devia come to the office? Is Aunt sick?" ask Zahra worried.
Zaki shakes. "No, Mama's got a little personal business. You want to, we'll just go to Ruby's restaurant?" tawl Zaki's.
Although Zahra felt bad, but inevitably he also agreed to Zaki's invitation because this concerns working professionals who cannot be concerned with the inconvenience to Zaki.
They continued the lunch session and did not forget to say happy birthday and gratitude to Deka-sang pentraktir.
After the lunch together ended, Zahra and Zaki immediately prepared to meet clients at the restaurant that had been promised.
Zaki takes the position behind the wheel of the car and Zahra sits in the seat next to him.
It didn't take long, they arrived at the meeting place.
"Lala?" Zahra recognized one of the two people present at their meeting.
"Zahra ..." said the woman who had known Zahra. Yeah, that woman was Lala-my Zahra's friend at High School.
"Geez, I didn't expect to see you here... I miss you, Ra!" Lala who has always been an installments from a long time ago just hugged Zahra's body familiarly.
"You work in British Jewelry?" asked Lala who started to unravel her embrace from Zahra's body. Zahra nodded at her close friend's question during the gray white period.
"OK - okay, it's been reunionnya yes, mothers!" The voice of someone next to Lala interjected the two of them who had dissolved in a familiar atmosphere. The voice sounded slow and mendayu - dayu, suitable to represent the owner of the voice itself - who looks eccentric but looks gurgling - even though he is a man.
Zaki who had seen the familiarity of Zahra and Lala also seemed to wake up at that moment.
"Ah, yes.. Can we start the meeting?" asked Zaki with his distinctive wet husky voice.
Lala turned to Zaki and he nodded at the man with a strange look. Some kind of awe or fascination, I don't know.
The four of them sat down, then began to talk about the benefits of business that would be mutually beneficial.
Here, Zahra took on the role of speaker because she had begun to be flexible to become Devia's secretary. Plus, his client this time is Lala-his own friend-so Zahra doesn't feel nervous at all.
Not waiting long, Lala who already knows Zahra and may have been fascinated with the figure of Zaki, immediately agreed to their cooperation, even he wanted to invest a decent amount of funds in a new company owned by Devia.
Yes, Zahra knew quite a long time ago that Lala was a friend who was already rich from birth, it is not wrong if now Lala is in control of one of the branches of his family-owned company engaged in convection.
"Welcome to work with my old friend" said Lala, but Zahra smiled at Lala's words.
"Yes, La! Thank you for making things easier by directly agreeing on this cooperation offer."
"Look easy, Ra! I've known you for a long time. After all, your explanation and the benefits are also quite good," said Lala.
"By the way, why are you interested in cooperation in the field of diamond crafts? Not that your family business is a convection company and factory, is it?"
"Yes, I want to stray a little and run off the track. In some times now must be a brain puter so that the business does not stick there, if it fails yes it is a risk!" sahut Lala's.
"But no business man is different, yes." said Zahra laughed softly and they all chuckled.
After talking warmly about everyday life and exchanging mobile numbers with each other, they also shook hands to retreat.
"Mas Zaki .. can you ask for his personal mobile number?"
It was not Lala's voice, but rather Lala's trembling Ceva-assistant and turned flirtatious towards Zaki.
Zaki smiled slightly, perhaps feeling funny about Ceva's behavior.
"Oh, Cecev! Don't be shy.." grumbled Lala who was careless to see the assistant's centile behavior.
"Not Cecev, La! Ceva! My name is C..E..V..A.... Ceva!" the word Ceva spelled and emphasized the alphabet of her name.
Zahra and Zaki laughed at the two creatures before them.
"Mas Zaki, don't be bullied. This is an assistant I like weird!" lala said with a look on Zaki.
"No problem" said Zaki smiling.
"No matter what, Mom? Doesn't matter if Ceva asks for a phone number?" ceva continued with her pedal.
"Ih, Cev.. what the hell!" Lala massaged her temple at a glance, perhaps embarrassed to see Ceva's increasingly absurd behavior.
"Don't beat Lala, Mas! I'm seriously asking for Mas Zaki's personal number... Anyway, this is Lala naive, if I get Mas's number, she must ask me too!" said Ceva who made Lala's face blush perfectly.
"We'd better go first, yes, Mas.." said Lala ended the situation akward caused by the Assistant. "I'm sorry, Mas." he continued, staring at Zaki.
"Yes, it's okay! Anyway, if you want to know my personal number also does not matter.we will be a business partner now," said Zaki.
"Yes, La!" timpal Zahra said Zaki while smiling.
"Okay, if Mas Zaki does not matter later I ask through Zahra, yes." said Lala and immediately headed to the exit of the Restaurant while waving to Zahra and Zaki.
Lala and the Assistant, Zaki and Zahra also left the restaurant to return to their offices.
"You've known Lala for a long time?" zaki asked, more like mince words, Maybe he thought rather than the journey home filled with silence - like the journey went earlier. Better to talk lightly.
"Yes, Lala's my high school friend" said Zahra.
"Asyic isn't his son?" ask Zaki.
"Lala is good and smart."
"You like dong?" zaki smiled.
Zahra looked down not wanting to answer.
"I'm actually curious about you, Han, maybe this is a moment for me to be honest with you because we haven't had the time and opportunity like this," said Zaki started the conversation which seemed to be heading towards a serious conversation.
"Honestly? Honestly what, huh?" ask Zahra confused.
