The Morning Mentari

Heavy Load

Hansel was the only son of the youngest daughter of Charles Wilson's family, but among the grandchildren of Charles Wilson's four daughters, he was the closest to his grandparents, since childhood, Hansel lived with his grandparents more often when his parents lived in America taking care of his grandfather's business.

Stella, Hansel's mother still persuades Hans to go to Indonesia and meet his father and mother who live at the top of Bogor. Stella herself very rarely met her parents, because she had to accompany her husband to live in Boston.

"Come on Hans. if you go to Indonesia, your grandparents will be happy and stop terrorizing you...". Stella takes out her elusive style, so that Hansel will comply with her wishes.

"Okay ma I will consider first.., my work is very much and urgent.. if I leave to Indonesia then I am not sure I can walk well here...". Hansel launched excuses that could make him not go to Indonesia.

"there's your Papa here. There's also Steve who helped you.. Did you forget Thomas also helped at Wijaya Corp since a month ago....". Mama Hansel.

Thomas was a cousin of Hansel, son of his uncle Matheo Wilson. Thomas helped manage Wijaya Corp at the request of Danu Wijaya, although Papa Thomas also has a company but he prefers to work in the company of Wijaya while studying to his uncle who is already famous for being very expert in the field of business so that he can master business in the world.

"alright..alright..I will consider...". Finally Hansel gave up giving an excuse to his mother, a beautiful woman who was half a century old was indeed an expert in conquering the hearts of both men.

"That means you agree ...". Hansel's mama's face sparkled, assuming the only son of his puppet had agreed.

"Ma. I said I'd consider it first...". Hans started snorting towards his mother.

A moment of silence was present between them, the situation was quite heated, all persisting with his own thoughts.

Actually Hans very difficult to find a gap to reject the wishes of his mother.

Hans remained silent on the sofa, while his hand played a ballpoint taken from his suit pocket. Hansel did not respond to his mother's words.

His mind drifted into his imagination.

Indonesia became a list of places he did not want to visit. Hans had not been able to fight back his regret. Too much of a joke.

If only time could he turn back to the time he just graduated from High School, if he did not go, if he said it at that time.

"Hans... Papa wants to talk to you about something...". Mr. Danu Wijaya returned Hans' focus to him.

"what is pa...?". Ask Hans.

"you know, Bramantyo, the CEO of Brilliant Corp....". Hans remembered the name his father had just mentioned. A second later he remembered the name was a friend of his father since childhood, who served as CEO at the company briliant Corp, his papa company in Indonesia.

Bramantyo also became one of the shareholders there.

"Yes I remember....". Hansel found his memories of Bramantyo.

"he passed away two weeks ago... There's no replacement for him there yet, and the board of directors asked me to appoint my son, that you would take his place as CEO at Briliant Crop....."

"I think you are also able to handle the company there. You have passed the position test, while serving as President Director at Wijaya Corporation for 2 years...".

"Papa believes that you can bring our Company in Indonesia more advanced and developed in various sectors....".

"Remember there are many employees and also workers who depend on our company....

not just to enrich yourself...

but we also have to create jobs for a lot of people...".

"That means I have to leave America...?

And I have to live in Indonesia....". His decision this time surprised him.

During this time Papa and his mother wanted Hans to be close to them, but this time they wanted Hans, returning to Indonesia maybe even living there away from both parents.

"Hans..we used to worry about you because you were a child, after all you are our only child.so it's appropriate that we worry about you, but now you're an adult....,

and also you know, your grandparents need you to be close to them...". Mama Hansel stroked her son's shoulder while saying her request in a hearty manner.

Hansel thought for a moment.

"Well I'll go to Indonesia, but not now... Give me time to finish my work here .. and all my work will be left to Thomas, at least before I leave he must know what he has to do,.... So if I'm in Indonesia later I don't think about my job here....". Hansel finally gave up on the weight of Heart.

It seems that he has to make peace with himself.

"Well if that's what you want...

do it. but do not linger. The vacancy of the position of CEO In our company in Indonesia is very unfavorable to all parties...

Every decision you make should be made quickly....

There will be a lot of things left behind

You know it best, Hans...". Hans knew very well that he didn't actually own himself.

Since childhood his grandfather educated him to be the successor of his family company. Although his family never forced Hans to do everything, he still had to do it for the sake of his family.

"Father entrusts everything to you...". Her father's trust and hope was actually her heaviest burden.

"I'll try my best….". Said Hans looking at his papa who was looking at him softly.

"Oh yes Hans.. Did you attend the party tonight...". Mama Hans patted Hans on the back slowly, asking her son who was still fixated on himself.

"yes. it seems so ma.. earlier I had Steve prepare a gift for him, but I was confused what to give...". Hans did not know the character of Frank Adamson, he rarely interacted with the 51-year-old man in the business world.

"You should come Hans...

there will be present entrepreneurs from all over the world because today is the birthday of the most respected entrepreneurs around the world....

I think it will be very good for your career later...".

"you don't need to be confused about what you have to bring.he will accept whatever you give, if it's good then he'll auction it off...". Danu Wijaya. From his tone sounded a little sneering at Frank Adamson's habits.

"I've heard he auctioned his gifts to his friends and then he would donate the proceeds to orphanages and social services to make them more useful....". Hansel said what he knew about someone he didn't know who invited him to his birthday party tonight.

"Of course. He's very good Hans, he's generous...

He became a funder in every social activity, because many people talk about it, all because of his kindness...". Mama Hans was excited and also sparkling when telling a little bit of Frank Adamson's nature to his son.

Unlike Hansel's mother who looks proud of Frank Adamson, his father looks very upset, when his mother tells about Frank Adamson.

A question that rippled through Hansel's mind, looking at his Papa's unusual attitude.
