SUN FLOWERS

OPENING OF COFFEE SHOP

After returning from the office, Vino did not go straight home. He went to Lantana's house, because he believed he had come home from work at this hour. Sure enough, after Vino's car entered Lantana's yard, he saw the father was watering his daughter's sunflower garden.

"Good afternoon father." said Vino

"Eh, son Vino.. What's the matter??" welcome father friendly. "Here here." Dad stopped his activities and took Vino to the chair on the terrace. Vino followed my father and sat down in his seat.

"What's up, son?" ask dad. "So soon I'll get you a drink first.."

"eeee... Daddy's!! No need for dad.. Vino's only gonna be a minute." Prevent Vino

"Oh.. All right.." Dad sat back in his chair.

"Dad, I want to go to America.. How long, I'm not sure.. My father had a heart attack, my brother had problems, papa's company was also threatened with bankruptcy.." Vino.

"Oh my God.. Then how's your papa doing right now, son..!" said father with a worried tone.

"Papa was still unconscious, so my mother told me to go home quickly." said Vino. Then he was silent for a moment, his face seemed to be thinking about something. "Dad," Vino faced the father with a serious face. "I want to marry my father's daughter.. I know that my daughter is unconscious at this time, I also want to wait for her to come to her senses.. You agree, right?

"Dad.. Dad can't decide.. Later if Ana is aware, I will talk to her about this." replied Dad

Vino was relieved but also anxious. He was relieved that he gave hope, anxious that Lantana would refuse.

"Dad.. Does Lantana keep sunflower seeds for seedlings?" asked Vino after a moment of silence.

"There's.. In the warehouse there are many.. Even the warehouse is half as a storage place for Lantana sunflower seeds.. I'll get it for you in a minute." I'll just get up and go into the house

Vino observed Lantana's garden. The flowers are blooming and a great sign of the flowers getting good care. Before long the father came with a jar of sunflower seeds in his hand.

"Here we go.. Where will Vino plant?" ask dad

"I'll plant it in my papa's house in America.. It looks like it will be good as well as here" Vino smilingly accepted the jar. "It seems I also have to immediately buy a land for planting seeds of this flower as well".

Dad chuckles. Just this time the father saw a young man who was so persistent in chasing his daughter. "You mean it.. But, do you really want a father's son?"

"Of course dad.. I am confident in my decision" Vino said firmly

"But the father's son is very spoiled, and he's much lacking.."

"Dad don't worry.. I don't care about the flaws" said Vino

"alright.. Father won't get in the way." Dad smiled with dignity

"Good, dad.. Vino has to leave, soon Vino's departure to America.. Don't forget to call Vino when Lantana's awake.." Vino got up from his seat and parted

"alright.. You're careful on the road." said the father as he shook hands with Vino

"Titip greetings for the mother as well, well" Vino waved and walked towards his car then slid off the grounds of Lantana.

Dad shook his head before he finally went back inside his house.

"Young master, please" said Mike as he bent down to open the car door for Vino.

Vino sat in the back seat without taking off her sun glasess. Mike was already sitting in the steering wheel and drove his car out of the airport.

"Young master, the mistress is in the hospital.. Do you want me to take you there??" mike asked as he glanced at Vino through the middle rearview mirror

"How is the company??" ask Vino flat

Mike gulped as his question was not answered and his young master was more concerned with the condition of the company than his family.

"The company is in chaos, sir.. Many employees go on strike because their pay doesn't go down.. The shareholders are slowly starting to pull back their shares" explained Mike

" what percentage of shareholders still survive??" ask Vino again

"Only about 40% master.. Losses continue to occur even though the problem has been resolved" Mike

"Okay, to the company now"

"Good, sir.." Mike follows his young master's request and slides towards his master's company.

Vino entered a skyscraper that he had not seen for years or even heard from. He never took an interest in the company because his two brothers were always scrambling to take over the leadership if their father retired.

Vino immediately had all the directors and managers gathered in the meeting room to listen to their reports. Some confused directors immediately brought reports that they had in their style and were amazed by the presence of foreign youth who sat in the leadership chair.

Vino did not appear in the company since adolescence, so many directors did not recognize him except for a few people who had met him at official events with his father.

"You who?" ask a director who is his age

"Reply report whatever happens!" vino said with his arms crossed over his chest

Several directors exchanged views. They knew Alex, the company's Ceo deputy and Walt's marketing director. He is younger than the Stevenson brothers. Moreover, this young man did not wear any formal clothes at all.

"Young man, you shouldn't be here" said a senior manager

Vino just looked at her flatly before saying "you're ready with your report? Immediately report whatever happened" he said still with a flat expression

"You're here to work? But you don't wear formal clothes at all" the senior continued

"Is it important that I pay attention to my appearance at a time when the company is on the verge of collapse??" ask Vino sarcasm.

The directors looked at each other again. They hesitated and worried, they thought the one who invited the meeting was Alex who had returned from Japan. But who would have thought he was a person they had never seen in the company. Some directors feared this person was an intruder or robber who would take over the company without the consent of the original owner. considering that the three owners of the company are in big trouble.

A director who had seen him asked doubtfully. "Are you Mr Vino? Um.. Vino Stevenson the third son of Austin Stevenson?" tanyakanya. He's seen it, but it was a few years ago. And now Vino's appearance has changed

"Are there anyone else allowed to sit in this chair other than the owner of the company??" he said full of dissatisfaction.

All directors immediately blinked and sat down on the available seats. They started reporting their reports to each department.
