Secrets of the Former (Love Left Behind)

The Forty Five

Gantari stared at her reflection in the mirror, then exhaled strongly, trying to shake off her doubts this morning. Then, he stepped out of the room confidently.

In his home, Nevan does the same. With a suit full of Korean drama actors, he looked at himself in a wide mirror while wearing a watch. Tidying his hair for a while, then twist his body and step out of the room with full of charm.

Apparently, Fikri was already waiting in the courtyard. Stand by the car restlessly.

"Hunting, it's late" Fikri said after seeing Nevan out.

"That's a blast, tumben."

Fikri snorted, then held onto his chest. "Yes, here. I deg-degan."

Nevan glared at Fikri as he opened the car door, then grinned.

"Loe's not in love with me anymore, is she?" he said after getting in the car.

Fikri who had also just stunned his body into the car seat, immediately glared furiously.

Slowly the car crept out of Nevan's compound.

"Don't start yes, Mr. Nevan." Fikri scoffed, then continued, "We've had enough gossip in the office."

Nevan glanced at Fikri while controlling the steering wheel of his car, then he let out a crisp laugh, making Fikri look horrified.

Arriving at Ayana MidPlaza, Fikri came out first with his usual heavy backpack, followed by Nevan with his sunglasses.

"Sir Nevan?"

Nevan turned his head and found a straight-haired woman with a span skirt on her knees greeting him.

Who, huh?

Nevan opened her sunglasses, then chose to review her smile.

"Definitely don't remember me, deh," said the woman approaching. "I'm Kia, Zaskia. Secretary Mr. Edwin," he continued.

"ah! Yeah," Nevan's response was sober.

Have they met before?

"Dance!"

Hearing Fikri's screams just now, Nevan turned her head.

"That's Gantari, right?"

Nevan followed Fikri's line of sight and yes, she found Gantari walking side by side with Angkasa and it was enough to make her chest ache.

Gantari's thin smile throws at Nevan from a distance before entering the lobby making the Angkasa who saw her hiss, "Your acting is good too."

The bewildered Fikri immediately walked over quickly to Nevan.

"Ngapain Gantari is here?"

He turned his head again, looked at Gantari's already invisible existence, then continued, "And that ... What's the crazy Spaceman?"

***

There were four vendors present in the tender providing goods at Hotte Mart, a large-scale retail company and Rawikara Group got the first opportunity to make a presentation.

Fikri is still in a phase of confusion. Since then he looked at Gantari who was sitting next to Space.

"Fantar why, anyway? Doesn't he know who Space is?" the whisper was agitated to Nevan.

Fikri's gaze turned irritated when he saw Nevan leisurely.

"I forgot that he didn't like Gantari, '" murmured Fikri.

Nevan prepared the presentation material immediately, while Fikri helped share some supporting documents with Hotte Mart.

Nevan is Nevan with her serenity charm.

"Rawikara Group establish relationships

large scale directly with producers without intermediaries, so we can be sure the price offered is much more attractive." Nevan smiled, then continued, "In addition to competing prices, there are strategies we offer to increase visitor attractiveness."

Nevan swept her gaze over all the attendees, then showed the screen projector that had been provided.

"We take advantage of the community's fondness in selfies. We create the view as attractive as possible and we hold a marketing event for three months and the best photos will get interesting parcels from Hotte Mart."

Suddenly the room was bustling with frenzied applause. Moreover, Fikri. He stood up and shook his head in amazement. In the previous case he had heard the strategy in his office.

You're the best, Mr. Nevan.

Gantari smiled proudly. Nevan has always been a rival. If the theory, Nevan is a bad category, but if it has been practice, Gantari who will be tired beat Nevan.

Gantari is Gantari with her humble charm.

"The Group is starting to improve and I'm sure you and your Mom have seen the process."

Gantari commented a relieved smile when she saw some people whispering. He knew, today the Space Group did not start from zero.

"If the consideration is a matter of price, then we are the same as other companies. What if the sales price is a little high?"

Hotte Mart line up to frown. Fortunately, Gantari immediately continued, "Isn't this a Hotte Mart? A retail company with an upper middle market share? It feels natural, if the price is a little more prestigious."

AWH!

Gantari took a quick glance at Zaskia who leaned over her body in order to whisper to Nevan. Then, Gantari smiled again and pointed at the screen projector. Followed by the focus of the audience which is also to the projector screen.

"The price we deliberately do not press from producers for the feasibility of their hard work. And in exchange, we demand the quality of their goods."

Some people looked flabbergasted, then nodded. Meanwhile, Angkasa had never turned his gaze on Gantari.

"Another strategy we can provide is to do a weekend promo. Promo always manages to attract attention from not wanting to be wanted. And this weekend promo is an opportunity that will be invaded by the lower middle class. From Space Group."

The applause rumbled again and Gantari glanced at Nevan again who was also still focused on listening to the whisper of the Zaskia-Zaskia.

In fact, the presentations from the other two vendors no longer managed to hear Gantari.

***

"Dance!"

Jesus, Fikri. He even followed Gantari to the toilet and waited for her at the door.

"Hi, Fikri! How are you?"

Fikri shook his hand quickly. "No. That's not. What are you doing in Space?" fikri almost whispered.

"I work in Angkasa Group," Gantari reply kalem.

"You don't know who he is? Events in Semarang ...."

"I know," interrupted Gantari.

Fikri felt his knees go limp. Didn't expect that his favorite friend was now on the other side.

"Well, standing in front of the girls' toilet?" Nevan appears and manages to make Fikri jump in shock. He's we're the crazy Spaceman.

"This, Gantari ...."

"Ficily?"

"Yes?"

"Away a little bit. I want to talk to Gantari" Nevan said without looking at Fikri. He just stared at Gantari.

Fikri let out a heavy breath. He was afraid that Gantari would be finished off by the Boss.

"Don't be too hard with him, yeah," whispered Fikri, making Nevan glare sharply at him.

Finally, Fikri slowly turned around and left them with shaky steps.

"Your presentation is cool" Nevan said after Fikri was no longer seen.

Gantari only replied to him with a flat look. "Not to talk."

Nevan raised next to his eyebrows. It seems like yesterday their relationship was fine.

"You mad?"

"As long as you're presenting, I'm horrified to the end. It's my turn, you're playing biting at people's ears."

Nevan doesn't understand.

When did he bite his ear?

Not yet after the confusion, Gantari had already stepped away.

"Diyan!"

Gantari looked at him with a sharp look.

"Take care of your attitude, Mr. Nevan."

Uh! Damnit.

Jealousy is the scariest thing.
