My Soul in Grandpa's Hands

Meet Friends

The atmosphere in the office of Solo Techno that afternoon was rather crowded, because there were guests from prospective partners who checked the condition of the field. Aleta had been asked by Raditya in the morning to prepare material for the meeting, while Susan prepared material for the presentation in the form of powerpoint. Some employees have their respective roles to convince prospective partners to choose this company to work on their projects.

After finishing preparing the material and putting it in the meeting room, Aleta rested in her chair. He asks Raditya for permission not to accompany him in receiving guests, so that he can rest in his current seat.

"Aleta. Please convey to Mr. Raditya, asked to wait in the lounge or directly to the meeting room." asked Tutik.

"Be told to sit in the lounge for a while, Tut, I will tell the leader first."

"Okay, I'm straight ahead again."

Aleta immediately went to Raditya who was now ready in the meeting room with Susan, and two of the company's core team.

"Good afternoon, my guest is in the lounge. I'll drop you in here, or be asked to show you for a second." asked Aleta.

"Oh yeah, just be asked to come here. We are ready." said Raditya.

"Yes, brother, I'll just drop you here." Aleta went straight to the lounge, and met Tutik.

"Tut.., his guests were asked directly to the same meeting room as Radit's sister." Aleta delivers a message from Raditya.

"Okay, thanks Aleta. I'll tell the guests."

Just as Aleta was about to return to her seat, she heard her name being called.

"Aleta..," call a man from the lounge.

Aleta looked towards the source of the voice, and she saw Rio's friend Tata who was in the lounge. Rio came to Aleta, then reached out to invite her to shake hands.

"How come Rio can get here." asked Aleta while welcoming Rio's hand.

"Yes, my papa is opening a new branch in this city. And unfortunately, I'm the one who asked to handle here. Now I'm looking for a partner to do branding for my company on loan."

"Means the partner candidate my boss is waiting for is you Rio. How do you know where this company is from?" ask Aleta with a smile.

"Yes, I know from papa's friend. His company also assisted branding by this company. Btw.., Aleta works here."

"Yes Rio." Aleta replied briefly.

"Let's take me to your boss's place. But you must accompany me inside." Rio invited Aleta to meet in the meeting room.

"Ah no Rio, I'm here just apprentice. I'll just wait outside, now I'll take you and your friend inside." Aleta refused.

" Come with me dong. I want to talk, understand that there's no friend in town."

"Once, we'll talk later. Now I'm taking her inside. Your friend was invited, I'll have a chat later." Aleta promised.

Rio gave the code to his two friends, then escorted Aleta to the meeting room. Arriving at the room, Aleta opened the door and let the three of them in.

"Let's let the gentlemen come in." said Aleta with a smile.

"Sister Radit, Miss Susan."

Rio smiled at Aleta then entered the room. After they entered, Aleta immediately ran away from it and returned to her seat. He checks files aimed at his bosses, both offline and online.

Just as Aleta was done with her work, her phone rang.

"Yes, what's wrong." said Aleta. Raditya who was accompanying his team Rio suddenly called.

"It should be sir. Actually Aleta is lazy, this is still work. It's really nice to be left behind." Aleta makes excuses.

"Have been left with his work. Can be done next time, let's go to Aleta."

"Yes sir, I'm there."

With heavy steps, Aleta headed for the meeting room. He knocked on the door, then pushed and went inside.

"Sit down Aleta first." Raditya and everyone present inside smiled at him.

"Someone wants to be confirmed to my father's mother" Aleta said.

"This meeting is over Aleta, just that Rio was about you. Yes already, mendingan you we ask join all right." Susan explained.

Aleta glared at Rio, and Rio and his two friends just laughed.

"Sorry Aleta. I'm just saying to Raditya sir, I have a friend who works here. Ha..ha.." said Rio in self-defense.

"Already Aleta.., accompany Mr. Rio today. Your kingdom is done. He needs a friend." said Susan.

"I'm sorry Miss Susan, Mr. Rio. After work hours, my driver has also been asked to pick up by my husband." Aleta spoke frankly.

Because currently Devan is also leading a branch company in Sukoharjo. And he did not want to provoke a commotion due to a misunderstanding.

Hearing Aleta's words, all was somewhat speechless. But Aleta then neutralizes.

"I mean like this father mother, my husband has now moved here. He again pioneered the opening of a new branch in Sukoharjo, I do not want later there will be a misunderstanding if I accompany Mr. Rio. Unless we talk in the company environment, or later the Maghrib ends I invite my husband to meet Mr. Rio" Aleta said with a smile.

Raditya smiled at Aleta's words, and he was greatly amazed by her innocence and honesty. If Aleta is not married, maybe he will come forward to approach her first.

"Yes it's okay Father/Mother, no need to think about me. Because I also know, Aleta if she goes out there has to be a companion." Rio finally spoke in defense of Aleta, because when they met in Bandung, Aleta was also with Tata.

"Sorry sir Rio, please understand my position." Aleta cupped both her hands together.

"Yes, but call him do not use Mr. Dong. This is not a meeting." Rio protested.

"Yupz, thank you Rio."

"Yes already, you guys continue to talk in this room, I live in the room first yes Fathers." Raditya said.

"Okay, it doesn't matter Raditya. Hopefully our cooperation can run smoothly and successfully." said Rio.

Raditya left the meeting room followed by the people from his company. Inside the room lived Aleta and the three people from Rio's side.

"Include my team Aleta. Andi, Angga...." Rio introduced his two friends.

Aleta shook the hands of the two men.

"Continue while on the residence where the three of you are?" tanyakanya.

"The three of us are still contract houses, because the construction of the house has not been completed. We contract in the Ngemplak area, close to the company office."

"Good dong, if I'm a little far away. Coincidentally my house in Sukoharjo area, I will ask my husband's permission first. After getting permission, you can play in my house."

They chatted for almost an hour, but since Rio remembered Aleta's new apprentice working hours there, he eventually resigned.
