...Next morning....
...Ayu and Siska are getting ready to attend the interview....
...Ayu was done getting dressed, checking back the files they needed to bring. ...
...For today's interview, Ayu specially wore a plain shirt with a long black skirt. While Siska who still continues to look glass wearing beige blouse and formal pants....
...Siska stopped glazing, turning to ask Ayu. "How do I look now. It's neat yet?"...
...Ayu turned her head, observing how Siska looked. Nodding as an affirmation. "good. You look neat and energetic as always."...
...Siska pouted as if dissatisfied. "As usual! There is no difference in ordinary days. I want to be different in this interview."...
...Ayu shook her head to hear it, only able to smile. "For what is different. You just have to be yourself, but still be polite and neat."...
...Siska was silent for a moment, then nodded with a cheerful smile. ...
..."You're-you're right."...
..."Then how about now, does it look polite and neat. It's not appropriate to go to an interview?" Siska asked again....
..."Suit. It's good for the interview." ...
..."Thank you." Thank you." Siska smiled happily, not forgetting to praise Ayu. "You also look prettier in that suit. The interviewer will definitely take you to work right away," Siska joked....
..."You're this.." Ayu smiled helplessly. Then said to Siska, "Have it, don't discuss the matter of appearance anymore. Let's leave right now, or we'll be late for the interview."...
..."Uh! You're right" said Siska....
...After reflecting for the last time, Siska went downstairs with Ayu. They order taxis online to arrive on time....
...***...
..."Waw! You see, Yu, the building is so tall!" siska exclaimed, as soon as she got off the taxi....
...Ayu was also stunned when she saw a tall building towering. Mumbled with admiration, "So this building is an office owned by PT. Furnijaya, where they'll go to work."...
...Ayu had already seen this picture of the office building over the internet, but it looked much different when she saw it herself. ...
...Finished admiring the office building, Ayu and Siska enter the lobby and go to the receptionist to ask where the interview was held....
..."Oh, just walk straight, right. After that you turn left. The place is there" the receptionist said....
...Both then thanked. Then go in the direction that the receptionist pointed out....
...Just as the two left, two people with elite appearances entered the lobby where Ayu and Siska had just left....
...One of them looked like a middle-aged man with a prominent and authoritative nature. The other was a serious looking young man and a handsome figure with eyes as deep as the bottom of the ocean....
...Several employees passing by immediately greeted respectfully as soon as they saw the two....
...Only after the two took the elevator did the employees dare to chat....
..."The leader has often come to the office with Pak Aksa," said one of the employees....
..."I don't know, maybe because Pak Aksa was newly appointed marketing director by the leadership."...
..."Ja. I heard that the other officials rejected Pak Aksa's appointment because he was young and had not had much experience." ...
..."How else. That is what the leadership wants. Not to mention that everyone here knows very well how much the leadership cares for Pak Aksa. Just like how the leader cares for his own daughter."...
...Everyone nodded, agreeing with what the other employees said....
...Hearing what the senior staff said, the crowd that still wanted to continue chatting instantly dispersed. Fear of being reprimanded by their superiors....
...The two people his employees had just talked about were now in the elevator heading upstairs. None of them spoke. ...
...The leader mentioned by the employees was Arga Wijaya and stood beside him, the newly appointed marketing director was Aksa....
...Arga cleared her throat to break the silence inside the elevator. He began his talk to Aksa. "How do you feel about serving as the new marketing director?"...
...Hearing that, Aksa turned a little. Seriously answered, "Good. It's just, I haven't really started it yet."...
..."Relax little. Don't push yourself too much. The new project this time is an opportunity for you to show the other higher-ups what your true abilities are." Arga patted Aksa on the shoulder as an encouragement. "Don't let me be disappointed."...
..."Okay, Mr." Aksa nodded....
..."Nice." Arga nodded with satisfaction. Then he asked me something else. ...
..."The new marketing team wants you to form, why not put experienced people in it. Why recruit new people? You don't trust the old team, or the people I've recommended you to?"...
...Aksa was silent, not answering immediately. Arga also did not force her to answer directly. It was back in silence. ...
...As soon as the elevator would reach the intended floor, Aksa opened her mouth and replied, "There is nothing I can trust in this company, sir."...
...Arga did not expect to hear such an answer from Aksa's mouth, silent for a while....
...The elevator clinks and the elevator doors open. Aksa came out first. Then, nod respectfully before the elevator doors closed again....
...There was Arga in the elevator to the top floor. The originally serious face turned into a wry smile. Shaken helplessly. It seemed to know what the true disposition of his subordinates was like....
...While Aksa was sitting in his office, a staff manager came in to report something....
..."Morning, Sir."...
..."Morning." Aksa nodded, then she asked, "How is the interview with the new employee, is it going smoothly?"...
..."Everything is going well, sir. According to your instructions. We're putting those who've been accepted into the suitable positions that are in this office." The staff said, while giving a copy of the file to Aksa. "This is all the resume files for the new employees, sir. Please view."...
..."Just put it on the table," said Aksa who was still seen busy processing other documents....
..."Fine." ...
...After putting the file on the table, the staff did not leave immediately. Still standing still in his place....
...Sensing that something was wrong, Aksa stopped her work and raised her head, seeing that the staff had not left. Aksa frowned, then asked, "Is there anything else you still want to say?"...
...The staff seemed hesitant to speak up, then he ventured to say, "Sir, are you really sure you want to put one of those new hires on our marketing team. Judging from her resume, the girl was still a student who had yet to graduate. Moreover, our team is now preparing a new project that is very important, what if the new employee messes up.-"...
..."Manager Chandra!" reprimand Aksa, cut off the manager's words....
..."Yes, sir," he answered nervously....
...Did he say something wrong....
..."Just do it according to what I command. Whatever happens, let me be responsible for it. So, you don't have to worry too much. If there is nothing else, you can leave now" Aksa said....
...Although there was no additional expression on Mr. Aksa's face, somehow the manager felt he had already angered the other party. So, without much consideration, he begs to resign....
..."I beg your pardon, sir," said the staff manager, then he walked out of Aksa's office....
...After the manager's staff left, the room calmed down. Aksa did not return to work....
...He got out of the chair. Overlooking the glass walls with views of tall buildings on opposite sides. His half-blurred shadow showed a hint of gloom....
