The Long Way to Be a CEO

My wife

"Hey baby, how's it going?"

Indira sent me a short message while I was away at the office.

"Well, where are you now? still in the office?"

"I just got to the apartment, what do you want in Masakin for dinner?"

I forgot to tell him that I came home late today, because there will be a dinner with the team at the restaurant that has been ordered by the dahlan.

"Sorry baby, I seem to be going home quite late, maybe you can come with me later, just a dinner with the team"

"OK, send me the location, me and Finna will come, okay?".

I also agree, it's okay if finna also come along later I explain why walk-out from the event.

"OK, you can take Finna with you so you don't go alone".

Arriving at the office, we continued to meet again related to several programs that had not previously been followed up because of various kinds of busy things that drain many fan minds.

This time I'll make sure everything goes according to plan, because there is no other time to overcome all problems until all can be resolved properly and will not be embarrassing if later it has been published to the community.

"Ran, what's the preparation for the event?"

"The place, the decorations, and all sorts of things are done. For invitations also have entered the list of companies that will come also from organizations and governments will certainly be present".

He submitted several sheets of reports that have been analyzed in advance so that there are no errors in the adjustment later during the event.

"Ok, good then. Keep monitoring the progress of the EO so that everything is under control as planned".

......................

Tired of work is common, though, but if done together feels a little lighter to bear and also there are always sweeteners that will feel more pleasant than all the activities we are doing.

It is less than a week away to the big event of the company's inauguration. A little bit of anxiety and also can't wait until the day of implementation, that's how we feel now. Wanting to start the first event held today can run smoothly without any obstacles as well as bad things that will happen, we all pray for it.

"Mas, the restaurant called to confirm, everything is ready"

"Ok Lan, you go first make sure the package for 10 people yes, and wait until we are all present"

"Ready mas". Dahlan continued to go with Rania to the restaurant that had been in the message.

Almost 6 pm we finished for all business, at least it is enough for today and tomorrow can continue, he said, karrna tonight we want to gather together to enjoy the night and serve food and drinks while talking that does not need to discuss work.

"Come guys, we're leaving now" I told all of them currently in the 2nd floor office space.

"siapp" simultaneously all cleaned up and left the office location to extend their vehicles to the restaurant.

Although a little drizzle began to fall sign there would be rain, we still left. Rarely are there moments together outside of work. It is also important to be more familiar not only limited to the relationship between superiors and subordinates, we leave the formalities and enjoy the tightness of friendship that is not only limited to colleagues.

......................

"Sha.. I've arrived at the restaurant, where are you?" a direct call from Indira via cellular connection, I was still stuck in traffic in a central area crowded by many car vehicles.

"There is Rania with Dahlan, I'm still on the road. It's stuck" I said.

The further, the highway is getting full, leaving no lane to precede other vehicles. Stefan who is usually a henchman is now starting to get angry and upset at the look on his face. Beside him was a medina sitting next to him in the front while I was behind with zahra and xian threes in the car.

"Ekhm.. It's good to be married". Zahra said the 24-year-old woman insinuated the intimacy of Stefan and Medina.

"Aws.. Darling slowly dong. sick tau" with a stunt pretending the pain that made us all shake our heads with the norish attitude.

"Hoi.liat-liat-lalan, friendly in the delay first" said I chimed stefan who continued to brag with words that tease the zahra.

"Ready boss".

The rain was getting heavier until the highway we passed, the view to the outside was getting blocked by the rain. The pace of each vehicle is getting slower and fertilized with a loud honking sound from each car and motorcycle.

It took 15 minutes to arrive at the location, there indira my wife was waiting in the restaurant, also dahlan, rania also finna welcome us who were a little rained when it was out of the car.

"Geez baby, ko can get wet like this anyway" Indira carefully watched the shirt slightly exposed to rain on the shoulders and hands. slowly he rubbed the green-leaf handkerchief to slightly dry the wet sleeves.

We all ordered food and drinks.

"Ekhm. well, colleagues all.The reason I invited you to this dinner is none other than to introduce my wife".

"Also as a thank you for the cooperation and assistance so far, without all of you here, there is no way I can be with you gathered into a whole team. thank you so much guys".

"Not forgetting also for stefan and madina may be a harmonious family and blessed. For others, I pray that they will soon get their respective soul mates".

"Let's toast to all of us"

"Yeay.. toast" stefan said in a loud tone greeted by others as well.

The sound of clanking from a loud glass was heard in the restaurant room which was not currently having many visitors.

With laughter and talk. For a moment we forgot the business that has become a routine of each, here we gathered as a friend as well as a family who have gathered in the shade of a company that has high ideals.

Let's just say, this is a night of familiarity, to further tighten the friendship rope as well as to take off the squeeze because tired of working a full day. Currently there is nothing we worry about anything other than spending the food that is now presented on a dining table filled with various types of processed typical restaurant cuisine.

Although not too luxurious it is different from when together, we do not care too much because the main menu is our togetherness now, without a partition from each person present.

"Sha, can I talk to you for a second?" pinta finna to me who he had previously talked to Indira so that there was time for two to discuss important things.

Finna and I went to another table and started talking about the matter earlier this afternoon. Finna explained many things about events in the event management room which also affected my company who did so following the event.

"I'm sorry sha, I'm very embarrassed. I don't think many corrupt actions occur in the management ranks, especially involving some officials".

"Just relax fin, I don't really mind it. I'm just a little disappointed but not for you. It's good we can focus even more on more important events".

"Sure sha, I understand, so there's something else I want to say tonight".

"What's fin?" I was a little curious about what he wanted to talk about this time.

"There are several startup companies under the auspices of my company interested in working with your company with the use of modules from Project Oxygen, and I ask the 7 startup companies later please invite you to the inauguration event, we'll talk about it later on the show, how?".

"Well good, ok, tell me what companies to invite.I'll take care of it as soon as possible".

"Once again I'm sorry ya sha.." said finna a little downcast so embarrassed to just stare at my face.

"We've been friends, it's a small thing. don't think too much about fin".

"Let's go back, they're waiting".

"Thank you sha..".
