The Dream of the President

Come and Go

“Excuse me sister, may I know where the treatment room is on behalf of Shafira Millia?”

“Shortly Miss, we check first.”

The hospital receptionist contacted someone by telephone. He was seen talking seriously on the phone, leaving the questioner stunned as if he had asked a difficult exam question.

“Nona, please wait a moment yes.” Reply to the receptionist to the questioner.

A few minutes passed, the questioner was still waiting at the reception desk. Assistant Haris walked over to the reception desk.

“Where is the guest?” ask Haris' assistant to the receptionist.

“This, Mr.” The receptionist pointed towards the questioner politely.

Assistant Haris looked carefully. Sometimes he scrunched his forehead. In front of him now, there was a young woman with blond hair, straight enough long, with foreign clothes. His face looks local, but not with his appearance that so looks foreign elements.

‘I'm not sure Mrs Shasa has a friend like this. Most of his friends look standard like domestic society.’ Assistant Haris thought to himself.

“Master, hello.” Greet the girl to Haris' assistant.

“Nona want to find who?” ask assistant Haris flat.

“I want to see a patient who just gave birth yesterday. Name's Shafira. Shafira Millia's. He is also the son-in-law of the Gusta family.” Answer the girl.

“You are ready Mrs Shasa?” ask assistant Haris again.

'Madam? Hahaha.. It turns out that you really are the son-in-law of the conglomerate ya.’ The girl's grumpy mocked Shasa in her heart.

“I'm his friend. His good friend.” Reply to the girl.

Assistant Haris smiled faintly. “Nona, not only one-two people claimed to be friends of Madam lately. Where can I be sure that you are really good friends Mrs?”

The girl was getting upset. “Hey, listen. Your own mistress told me about her delivery. He also asked me to visit him immediately. Need I show him a message from me?” the girl immediately reached into her pocket to pick up a cell phone. He showed me a message from Shasa.

‘That's right Madam Shasa's mobile number! Not just anyone knows this phone number.’ Her inner assistant Haris is surprised because this girl can prove that she is Shasa's friend.

“Your name, Miss?” ask assistant Haris.

“Gaby.” The girl replied briefly.

“Alright, come with me.” Assistant Haris walked away from the reception desk. The girl named Gaby also followed Haris' assistant to a place.

Suddenly, Haris' assistant turned her body around, leaving Gaby to jump in shock at having to brake suddenly.

“Nona, you only have 15 minutes to meet Madam.”

“You're crazy? I had to take a plane for more than eight hours to get here and now you're telling me you can only meet him in 15 minutes?” gaby protest without the slightest pause.

'Gosh, why is the way he grumbled so similar to Madame Shasa?’ inner assistant Haris.

Niko was already preoccupied with the management of Niel's birth documents. Just two days after the baby lived in this world, he had already torn apart Niko's work schedule. Commissioner Gusta has been giving back-to-back homework since yesterday to Niko.

Niko entered the company secretariat. His presence was quite electrifying to the people there. He spent several hours to finish his work there. After everything was done, Niko walked out of the room. However, he accidentally heard the chatter of employees there who were talking about Lita.

‘Lita will go? To where? Why don't I know anything about it?’ inner Niko wonder. Niko's brain keeps thinking about Lita. He guessed whether there was something secret from him, while Niko knew very well every intricacy that happened in the Gusta family and his company.

Niko walked quickly into the hospital. Arriving in front of Shasa's room, Niko opened the door of the room that somehow felt heavy at that moment. How surprised Niko was to see who was in the room. Not only that, he was also trying to understand what situation was going on inside the room.

“President Leo, I thank you for the trust you have given me all this time. I'm so proud to have been trusted to look after a Mistress Gusta you love.” Lita was talking to Leo and Shasa in front of her. “And.. Madam, I'm very impressed with you. You have your own ways of conveying your sincerity. May your sincerity be paid for with happiness. Sorry if as long as I'm in charge of escorting you, there are things you don't like about me.”

Leo realizes Niko's arrival behind Lita.

“After this you go straight away?” leo asked with a slight squint of his eyes.

“Ya, Mr.” Lita answered briefly.

“You don't want to say goodbye to the others?” ask Leo again.

“During this time, I worked for you, Sir. Why should I say goodbye to the others?”

“You didn't tell Niko about your departure?” Shasa interrupted asking Lita. “I think your relationship has improved lately.” said Shasa innocently.

Lita was silent at Shasa's question. He tried to catch his breath so as not to sting.

Suddenly Niko approached. He saluted Leo and Shasa by bowing his head. At once, Niko pulled Lita's hand and took her out of the room. Leo and Shasa looked at each other.

“Darling, why did you allow Lita to resign?” shasa asked with a sad face as today was Lita's farewell day.

“Honey, sometimes we have to lose first before realizing that something is valuable to us. If they love each other, they will come back in their own way. Without us messing around, without us engineering.” Answer Leo.

Shasa looked at Leo's face for a moment. Shasa just realized, it turns out that Leo also noticed the relationship of Niko and Lita. Despite Niko's firmness and hardness, he was one of the people who protected Leo to this day.

Niko takes Lita to a hospital balcony. Niko stared at Lita in front of her. His hand was still clenching Lita's arm.

“Niko, do you want to hurt my hand?” Lita broke the silence between the two.

Niko takes her hand off from Lita. “What are you doing?” ask Niko.

“Why do you care what I want to do?” Lita asked back.

“You just need to answer my question.” Niko Strictly. “You are the head secretary of the company. How could I not know if you resigned?”

“You forgot? Apart from being the chief secretary of the company, I am also the assistant of Mrs Shasa. Between those two, my position as the assistant of Lady Shasa is far more important than my position as the chief secretary. Regardless of all that, whether as chief secretary or assistant to Mrs Shasa, I work for President Leo. I keep working or quit, all under the control of Chairman Leo.”

“Then you thought you didn't have to tell Commissioner Gusta, Mrs Sofia, the board of directors and commissioners, and to me?” Niko raised her tone.

“I will of course tell Commissioner Gusta and Lady Sofia. I will also report my resignation to the board of directors and commissioners. But, why should I tell you?” ask Lita.

Niko narrowed her eyes. “What are you coming for if you're finally going to leave?”

Lita sighed. “I've wanted to go a long time. But my heart won't allow it. I waited a few years. I wish someone would ask me to stay. I gave up because I waited too long.” Lita. “I want to tell you about my departure shortly before Madam gives birth. However, I have not had time to say it because we are all busy taking care of Mrs Shasa's delivery. All right, now I'll tell you.” Lita stepped closer right in front of Niko. “You know, right, my brother lives abroad? For a long time, he invited me to live there. My brother says it's time for me to enjoy my own pleasure.” Lita smiled faintly at Niko.

“Why do you have to go all the way in search of pleasure that you haven't even seen and forget the pleasure that you might get in front of you?” niko's eyes looked at Lita so deeply. Not knowing, their hearts were beating very fast. Their ears don't hear it because their brains are too busy thinking about what to do next.
