The Cost of Trust

The Part 170

"What do you mean by rich talk so deck?", asked Aziz after we entered the room. Only Jul mas entered the room, the rest might wait outside or might as well return to their room. I don't like it when someone talks about "something' behind our back. They better talk to me directly. If I had said that, I could have fired them. But...if their performance turns out to be good, is it not selfish of his name????

"It's okay, man. Will we check the boutique bookkeeping?! All boutique promotions, only once they are interested in pesen clothes to your boutique mas."

"Our aunt..!", said Aziz.

"Yes, our boutique. Our office."

We both laughed as if without a burden.

Julian looked at us who were compactly laughing.

There was a feeling of admiration towards the two, especially towards Bu Diandra. Beautiful and beautiful woman. It looks polite, but humble. It's exciting! That was the view of everyone who first met him, Julian was no exception. Diandra does not need to speak loudly, but with one talk he can make people speechless. Including his employees who have been gossiping Mr. Aziz. Bu Dian was quite elegant facing 'them'.

"Let's Mom, we go to the meeting room!", Julian let me out of the room first.

"Mas Jul, mas Aziz can come inside?"

Julian just smiled.

"Sir, wait here. Fearfully, Diaz will be fussy even so disrupt your show."

"But I....!"

"Sir, there's Julian who'll be with you."

"Yes already. Doain me yes mas!", I said.

Aziz smiled instead. Then kiss my forehead. There was a sense of calm that suddenly ambushed the recesses of my heart. Yes, the kiss of my husband gives a sense of calm and comfort.

"Bismilahbornrahmanirrahim."

Julian and I walked out of my room. We walked to the elevator not far from my room. We were both in the elevator.

"Mas Jul!"

"Yes Ma'am?"

"Anybody attending this event? Only DWP employees and staff, right?"

"Sorry Mom, besides them there are also several DWP Bu partner leaders."

"Owh. I think it's an internal meeting."

"Sorry, Miss Dian. In addition to introducing yourself to your subordinates, you should also get acquainted with other company leaders who have been working with DWP Bu."

"So Tah?", I asked.

Julian scrunched his forehead.

"You mean Dian?", asked Julian.

"Ah, don't think about it. Oh yeah, which Miss Sharen? Not seen?"

"Em.. Sharen's desk in front of my room, ma'am."

"Oh yeah, I forgot. Sharen is your secretary, huh mas?!"

Julian nodded.

"Sorry Mom, maybe it's out of work. But I'd like to ask, may?"

"What?"

"Stevia?"

"What do you want to ask Jul?"

"Mr Dian has been friends with Stevi for a long time?"

"Em..not too yet, just a few months ago. She was looking for work at our stall, her husband died a few months ago. So, she had to work to support her son and their needs right?"

"So, Stevia's been a single parent?"

"Yes." Yeah."

Julian speechless.

"Bu Dian..you know since when Via ..mualaf?", asked Julian hesitantly. It seems like what Aziz said was true, there was something about Julian.

"I don't know the hell, yeah, maybe when she got married ten years ago."

Julian was silent again.

The tring....! Elevator door opens. Julian let me out first.

"Where's Jul's room?"

"There's Mom!"

We also walked into the room. My heart is beating faster than ever before. Bismillah, O Allah, do not let me make any more mess of speaking the no-no.

Julian opened the door for me.

"Please Mom!", Julian again let me in.

Bismilbornrahmanirrahim.

I put a smile on my face. Then I spread my eyes across the room. Everything was not as I expected. Apparently, the participants of this meeting are quite ...many!

Julian pulled out a chair for me to sit on.

"Thank you Jul!", Julian nodded.

I take my breath slowly.

"Bismillahirrahmanirrahim, assalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh!"

"Walaikumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh."

Some answered, some did not. Maybe they're not at my faith.

"Before, I say thank you to my father and mother all who have been willing to attend this meeting."

They looked at me with a look of no idea. Some of them I know. Om Umar, it's clear papa Mika. Stevan and Ronald are also in this room.

"First let me introduce myself. I am Diandra Saputri Nugroho. I am the only daughter of Dirham Widianto Putra. And... Thank God I am married, my husband is Aziz Abisatya Nugroho. And my son Diaz Abisatya Nugroho."

"Maybe, among you-you all have asked why I just joined this DWP. This is what I'm going to tell you right now."

I take my breath slowly.

"I think, all this time Om Kendra Sastra has removed me from the list of heirs of DWP ownership. Apparently, before he died he told Aunt Mila Sellyna, wife om kendra. late om Kendra asked me to take care of DWP. "

"A while ago, indeed.there was a discordant tone that 'ticked' my heart. Alluding to me who was depressed when I was a teenager, precisely when my father and mother died before my eyes."

But some others, may still be interested in hearing my babble.

"In the business world, things that concern about psychology are of course very important. Anyone would think many times to...work with a person who was once 'crazy' perhaps?"

I continued my sentence.

"But I need to emphasize here, I was once depressed, but not crazy like the one in your shadow."

"Maybe, there are also those who shrink my ability. That's.just be reasonable."

"I was just a housewife after marriage. Right! I once interned as a regular staff in this office, right! And it might not be wrong if anyone underestimates my abilities."

The views of people who used to look at me 'weird' now tend to be more human. Huh! Humanely? Whatisit?

"I just hope, I can continue , developing DWP company to be more advanced. But I can't work alone, can I?"

"You-you all I hope can help me move this company forward."

"Because here, I admit. I still have a lot to learn from you. And sorry, there may be less or even informal sentences at this introduction. That's all I'm going to get. Thanks!"

Suddenly one of the men stood up and clapped his hands. After that, some people followed him. Om Stevan and om umar also stood up to applaud her as she smiled her smile.

Finally, the show is over. We shake hands with each other.

Om Umar and Stevan approached me.

"Welcome to join Diandra!", said Umar, patting my arm.

"iya. Thank you!"

"Congratulations Dian!", Stevan followed in the footsteps of Umar.

"Thank you."

Julian brought me back to my room.

"Mas Jul?!"

"Ready Ma'am!"

"Am I embarrassing?"

"No Ma'am. Why?"

"I feel.ah." I put both my hands on my face. Julian laughed a little.

"No Ma'am, your attitude that tends to be relaxed and not monotonous is more interesting to us, ma'am."

"I mean?", I don't understand. Our feet continued to move towards the elevator.

"Your honesty Ms. Dian. You dare say it all."

I'm speechless.

"From them hearing from others who don't-no?!"

Julian smiled at me.

"Your decision is correct, ma'am!"

We also arrived in front of the elevator.

"Mom...Diane!" greet someone.

"Niko?"

The one called was down.

"Why bro?", I asked. I forgot the situation and things have changed. Niko looked up at my face. I also scrunched my eyebrows.

"I'm sorry, Miss Dian, a while ago I was being disrespectful."

Uh! I forgot! Niko must have felt inferior because yesterday she was familiar with talking to me before knowing that I am currently the boss.

"Niko....we are still friends, right? Just act accordingly."

Niko looked at me again.

"At the moment, I'm the CEO of this company. But to me, you are still my friend!", I smiled.

Finally, Niko's face returned bright.

"Thank you, Dian....!"

"Yes.don't hesitate, bro!"

Niko nodded as well. Even though Dian is the boss, Dian's attitude is still the same. Not changing, let alone acting bossy like Miss Sharen.

"I was first niko, my son's husband was waiting for me."

"Yes Mom!"

Julian and I left Niko.

"Mrs Dian...!"

"Yes? Why Jul?"

"Why are you still acting normal, even though Niko is just an ordinary staff?"

"What should I do about Jul? Don't underestimate the staff. They are the front guard of our company."

"One more mas Jul, I want our employees' health insurance to be improved again huh?!"

Julian was silent.

"Ready Ma'am!"
