Old Love Rival Remains

Old Love Rival Remains
Ardan has changed



"Why are you a workholic? You also have to eat and get enough rest" said Papa who approached Ardan's still-bright workspace. It was eleven at night.


His father who was at home deliberately asked for security to report the activities of his only child.


It's been a few days that his papa let Ardan overtime. But tonight, his heart was piqued and rushed into the company leaving his wife who was already sleeping soundly.


Ardan did not answer. He was still disappointed by his papa who supported his mother's intention to interfere with her relationship with Vienna. But still his fault could not refuse to eliminate his prank on Tiara.


"Papa see you're getting thinner" said Papa again trying to be patient.


Ardan still silenced it. He was busy with his laptop screen.


"Go home. Kasian mama," said Papa while patting his shoulder.


Ardan still did not respond. His heart was dry. Only alcohol is needed.


"Papa will support if indeed Vienna is your choice now. You don't look like Ardan" said Papa who understood that his son was really heartbroken. This also includes his fault.


It doesn't matter anymore, Pa, Ardan is lazy. Ardan remained silent, not responding.


Papa finally came out of his room with a sad heart.


When he arrived at the parking lot, his wife called because she was not there.


"I'm going to the company. Ardan still works in his room."


".................................."


"Yes, I'm going to pull it right now."


".................................."


Dad hung up the phone and entered his car. Drove away with a feeling of uncertainty.


*****


Mom looked at her son's room before knocking on him. This morning my mother visited.


It's been a few days that Ardan hasn't been home. Answering the phone let alone replying to the message was not.


His only son is sulking. Showing his defiance side.


Fortunately when he entered Ardan's room, his son was alone.


Ardan did not care about the presence of his mother.


"Ardan, have you had breakfast yet?" ask mama softly.


He let out a long sigh because his son did not understand him.


"Mama bring the beef oxtail soup. Mama has not eaten yet. Temabi mama eat yes," said his mother trying to attract the attention of Ardan.


But Ardan still did not answer.


Mama began to notice the appearance of her only son. His face was now adorned with a thin sideburn and somewhat tyrannical. His eyes seem to be sleep-deprived. His body is also a bit thin.


Why is his son like this?


Mama hates Vienna more and more who can make drastic changes to her son. This time Ardan was against it. Since the poor girl. Mama's chest was so turbulent that she held back her anger.


"Ardan, you didn't hear mama say anything!" her mother was angry.


Ardan took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.


Hearing the angry voice of his mother made Ardan so afraid that his mother's heart would recur.


Finally he saved his work first and began to approach his mother who was sitting on the sofa.


My mother smiled happily too. He prepared the food he brought.


"Let's accompany me to eat" said the mother as she held out a plate to him.


Ardan did not answer. Just take a little rice and the side dishes.


"Why just a little? Add yes," said mama while spooning rice in size large enough to the plate.


But Ardan shifted it.


"Ardan," exclaimed mama annoyed at his refusal.


"That's what you ate," the lie. Though not yet.


Since eating him irregularly for a few days, he began to feel nauseous every time he would eat. But Ardan is still trying to hold him back. Only alcohol can make him comfortable.


"Tomorrow the night of the owner of the hospital where mama used to be treated for her sixty-year-old birthday. We're all invited."


Ardan did not answer.


"We go out together or do you want to be with Dina?" ask mama again.


Ardan is silent. Now he even helped rearrange his mother's food that was left quite a lot.


"Make your lunch. Warm the soup in the microwave. Mama'll tell Meti."


Ardan still did not answer, just tidying up the food place.


Mom tried to patiently hold back her anger.


"Self," replied Ardan finally.


"Don't leave. Don't be ashamed of me" said Mama Ardan.


Ardan did not answer. The door of the room was knocked and opened.


Meti and Tiara entered and was shocked to see Mama Ardan in the room.


Meti who already knew there was his boss' mom, just act normal. While Tiara who did not know, a bit clumsy because Mama Ardan looked at him sharply.


"Auntie Morning. I'm Tiara," she said politely.


"Morning. You're Mr Zain's son?" ask my mom after a while.


This girl is so beautiful. Ardan can be tempted. But mama was so surprised when she saw Ardan who seemed not to care now.


"Okay, mommy's coming home first. Maybe you want to go to the show tomorrow night with Tiara?" fishing mama.


Tiara who had been happy to hear the word mama Ardan so shriveled because of Ardan's refusal.


"Ardan goes alone, Ma," he quickly refused, then stepped onto his desk.


"Ooo," replied Mama Ardan who was now smiling understandably at Tiara.


"Meti, that's aunty cooking soup. If you want, eat it. You can warm it in the microwave," Mama said.


"Yes. Ma."


Meti glanced at Tiara's wry face with a pleased heart.


Rasainic.


"Mama pulamg first. Remember mom's message" Mama said as she passed.


"Heart, Ma," he said slowly to make his mother's heart ache.


Ardan didn't bring his mama. He was busy with his laptop.


Mom walked outside with a pissed off heart. His only son had never been this brash. Especially because of women.


Mama Ardan decided to go to the bank where Vienna worked. He has to do something.


And here comes Mama Ardan. Sitting face to face with the owner of the bank where Vienna works.


"Tumben you're here" said Papa Gaga-Endi casually.


"You can probably guess my purpose here, right?" Mama Ardan said the same.


Papa Endi laughed a little. Of course he could guess what his college friend meant first.


"You worried?"


Mama Ardan smiled wryly.


"Ardan has never been like this."


Papa Gaga still continues his laughter. Exactly a mocking laugh. But Mama Ardan was not angry, he remained calm.


"Can Vienna be moved to a branch office?" ask her frankly.


"could certainly. It's easy" replied Papa Gaga lightly.


"What's the reward?" hatch mama Ardan half sneered.


Papa Gaga laughed.


Mama Ardan looked at her cynically.


"Remember you failed me in Germany?" papa Gaga said calmly after being satisfied with a laugh.


Of course Mama Ardan remembered. At that time Papa Gaga will get an S2 scholarship to the Jeman, defeating Papa Ardan who is his only rival.


But Mama Ardan did something sneaky, spreading a photo of Papa Gaga sleeping with the woman she hired until her scholarship was revoked.


Finally Papa Ardan who set out to pick up the scholarship.


"I'm glad to see Vienna messing with your life" Papa Gaga said.


Mama Ardan smiled cynically.


"I heard that Gaga was in a relationship with Amelia Haris" said Mama Ardan.


Papa Gaga looked at him lazily.


"I know that family very well. They're working with our company."


Papa Gaga still did not respond.


"The cooperation is worth hundreds of billions. You can imagine my husband canceling it, and Haris's family is about to go bankrupt" said scheming Mama Ardan.


"Just be careful. Your husband must not be as stupid as he once was," Papa Gaga's circus made Mama Ardan's face red withhold anger.


"Well, I've already told you my purpose. I gave her two days to think" said Mama Ardan, rising from her seat.


Papa Gaga just stared cynically at his ambitious former friend until he walked out of his room.
