The Love of the Past
Company Threatened
At that time, the Duke wanted his son to continue his company in Jakarta, but Arkha refused because he wanted to live independently without standing on behalf of his father. After several years Arkha plunge into the world of advertising, the company is getting more advanced and growing success. Many competitors are also always a strong determination Arkha to set his greatest strategy so that the company does not easily falter.
However, in the past two years, Wijaya has often been sick, his physique has begun to weaken at the age of fifty-five years. Until finally the company in Singapore was managed by Fira who was none other than Arkha's birth mother. The woman also includes a great woman and graduates of the best universities in London.
The company in Singapore is not too big like his company in Jakarta, but the business competition there is indeed tight, so Fira must be extra drain his mind. If not for the pity of his father, maybe Arkha would not want to continue the company in Jakarta and leave the MA Advertising in Singapore, he was very regretful about it.

Arriving in front of the Duke's room, Arkha knocked on the door, but there was no answer, impatiently, he decided to open the dark brown door. Arkha entered without waiting for the approval of his papa, because whatever it was, Arkha was still a son of Vijaya.
The middle-aged man in a grey suit was standing in front of an office window revealing the atmosphere of the city out there. Adipi—paanya Arkha looks restless and a little panicked while sticking his phone in the ear. That means he's calling someone.
Seeing Arkha's presence, a father simply nodded and still continued with his still-connected phone. Arkha digested every sentence that came out of his papa's mouth, looking at him carefully.
Arkha heard Vijaya's talk which sounded loud and serious. Yeah, the guy's setting up a strategy to save his son's company.
The phone connection ended, Wijaya put the flat object on her desk. He then approached Arkha who was sitting on the sofa.
"Did you know?" arkha asked, turning to look towards the Duke who was beside her.
"Already, your mother is now panicking there, Papa has also told Arka to handle the company so as not to get more foggy," said Wijaya with a serious face mimic.
"I asked Reno for help, too, Pa."
"Good, at least he's moving fast."
Reno was the son of his younger brother Adipati, which means he is still Arkha's cousin. Now, he is managing his company that has grown rapidly in Singapore. Sometimes he always took the time to check Arkha's company. Inevitably, Arka was a great leader compared to Arkha, because she was five years older than him. Of course he is more experienced.
"Pa, it looks like Arkha has to go there directly to find out the conflict more clearly. I want to solve this problem myself."
"Well if that's what you want, but is Nayra okay if you live alone?"
"Later down the road I'll call Nayra, Pa. Most importantly I have to get to the airport." Arkha stood up and went away, but his father called.
"Arkha, wait!"
"Yes, Pa. What's up?" Arkha looked back as he was already at the doorway.
"If for example later the funds are less, say Papa."
"Thank you, Pa. Arkha go first."
In the corridor, he kept trying to call Nayra, intending to give her the news if she had to go all of a sudden to Singapore.
Twice the ringing, three times, four times, was still not lifted by the woman who was his wife. Arkha while walking hurriedly towards the direction of his room. He meets Celine at his desk, next to Arkha's room, and orders her to buy him a flight ticket as soon as possible.
A few minutes later, while Arkha was in his car, Nayra called. "Hello ... What's up, Ar?" Sorry I was in the ICU" Nayra replied casually.
"Hello ... The arkha? How silent?" sahut Nayra from the phone.
"Ah, it's okay. I just want to say goodbye. I have to go to Singapore now. Maybe for two or three days."
"Why so sudden?"
"There's a little problem, now I'm going to the airport. Take good care of yourself, yeah." Arkha seemed to have no spirit, the problems that befell his company had made him dizzy, plus the problem of his wife who was more concerned with other men. Arkha has the body of Nayra, but not the heart. He knew it, knew very well that his heart was for Zayn.
"You be careful on the road, yeah. Say the news often."
"Hem," Arkha replied lazily without taking a word out of his mouth. He immediately hung up his phone and continued his journey which was delivered by a driver in his company.
Seriate....
That day Arkha rushed to pack some of his clothes stored in his office closet. Intentionally he keeps his clothes in the office for incase if there is an urgent thing like now.
He went to Singapore alone with a sense of uncertainty. Troubled company, plus jealousy because his wife still keeps the taste of his ex-lover.
Along the way Arkha keeps thinking what he can do to save the company. He stared at the clouds through the window of the plane next to him, the brown bead fogged up when there were no shoulders to lean on. It feels like closing your eyes for a moment to clear the brain that is chaotic.
A few moments later, the plane landed at Singapore's Changi Airport. It seemed that Reno was waiting for him outside the arrival door.
“Arkha!”
Arkha stepped closer to Arka by pulling her black suitcase. “How is the company condition?”
“Poor enough.”
“Alright, we'd better get there.”
“You don't want to rest first?”
“Company more important.”
They're moving towards AM Advertising. Upon arrival, Arkha asked all employees to gather in the meeting room. The room is large enough to accommodate all employees in the company.
“We're meeting now!” arkha orders an employee who welcomes her at the entrance.
Previously, all employees had received instructions from Reno to wait for Arkha on the ground floor, making it easier to go to the meeting room at the main door near the reception.
The employees gathered in the meeting room according to the direction of the boss. Arkha sat on his seat of greatness so tensely. The man tightened his jaw, occasionally taking a deep breath and throwing it rough.
“Give us the leaked report data!”
The file had been in Reno's hands since Arkha had not arrived at his company. Reno handed over details of the product they were supposed to launch this month, but it was instead preceded by its business competitors.
