Thorny Love

*Bab 28

Feeling that his efforts did not work. Laila's just getting riled up. He went back to bed. He took his phone and called Sinta.

"Hello." Sinta answered Laila's call with a lazy feeling.

"Ma, what are you doing .... "

Laila hung up her sentence and disconnected the phone as she heard footsteps approaching the door of the room. With mixed feelings, Laila again lay on the bed thinking about what plan he would run again if the doctor said that he was lying about his pain.

Laila closed her eyes as Rama opened the door. He pretended to be asleep as Rama walked closer to him.

"I'm sorry, I'll take better care of you" said Rama, touching Laila's hand.

'What! Did I just not hear wrong? Did Rama say he would take better care of me? Maddened. What the doctor said until Rama seemed to feel more guilty about me. I'm sure, this must have been Sinta's mom. He must have helped me, ' said Laila inwardly with a very happy feeling.

While Rama is busy at home, Santi is busy at the office. He was very confused by the problems he was facing in the office at this time. Santi tried to contact Rama many times, but Rama did not answer the call from Santi.

Forced, Santi contacted Zia to discuss the problems that were going on in their office. Coincidentally back then, Zia was sitting in the park while fiddling with her phone.

"Hello." Zia answered Santi's call quickly.

"Mbak Zia's. I am Santi, secretary to Mr. Rama. I'm sorry if I'm presumptuous to disturb you this afternoon. But I am very panicked right now. Don't know who else to call but Zia's mom."

"What's Santi? Why are you so sweet? What's the problem in Rama's office?"

"A big problem is going on in this office. Big clients have canceled their contracts with this company. Not only that, the withdrawal of shares they do, resulting in compensation in very large amounts. I have contacted Mr. Rama, but Mr. Rama did not answer my call. Please help me mbak. Ask Mr. Rama to come to the office right now."

"Yes already. I'll talk to Rama. You calm down."

"Good mbak Zia. Thank you so much for your time. I'll close this call first."

"Yes." Yeah."

"A problem of this magnitude is plaguing the office of Rama. But Rama is busy with his new life. It's amazing" said Zia while looking at the phone screen.

Ziana got up from sitting down, then looked for the whereabouts of Rama. He entered the house and found Rama who had just come out of the main room.

"Mas Rama, I want to talk."

"Speak what else? I don't have time if you want to talk about our messed-up lives right now. Please give me some time to calm my mind so that I don't get stressed out with everything that's been going on."

"It's not about us, but about you and your company who are on the verge of bankruptcy right now."

"What! Did you just say? Don't make Zia. I know you don't like me anymore, but please, don't try to scare me like this."

"I suggest you take a look at your phone right now, Mom. Later you will know right or wrong what I say," said Ziana, then left..

Rama listened to what Zia said. He immediately headed for the car to pick up the cell phone he left there.

"Oh my God, Santi called me dozens of times. What's the matter?" rama asked while calling Santi back.

"What's Santi? Why did you call me dozens of times?"

"Sir Rama, it's best that Mr. Rama go to the office immediately. I can't explain what happened on the phone."

"Well, that's it. I'll be there soon."

"Good sir Rama. I wait."

"Yes." Yeah."

Rama rushes his car to the office after the call he decides. With a question mark, he drove off the car quickly.

Meanwhile, Zia who got a call from Restu, also immediately left the house. Restu asked Zia to go to the office immediately because there were some problems that he could not solve. Zia must have intervened.

Rama got to the office after a few minutes of travel. He welcomed Santi and some of his important staff with an unsightly face.

"Finally Mr. Rama came too" said Santi when he saw Rama approaching.

"What's this about? Why do you look so panicked now?"

"How can we not panic Mr. Rama. Because of the mistake that Mr. Rama made this morning, we all get the impact" said one of the staff who was upset with Rama.

"What do you mean?" rama asked no less upset.

"Already, all of you do not make things worse. Let me do the talking myself" said Santi.

"Sir Rama, all important clients who are supporters of our company have canceled the contract of cooperation with us."

"What! Why would that be?" rama asked with a very shocked face and panicked.

"All this happened because of Mr. Rama's mistake this morning. Mr. Rama has neglected the interests of the company for personal gain" the staff said.

"Yes, Mr. Rama does not think about how the fate of all of us. Mr. Rama only thought about the selfishness of Mr. Rama," said another staff member.

Rama was silent. He felt he had no words to answer what they were accusing him of. Because in reality, all this was Rama's fault.

"I'm sorry to all of you. I'm jani, you all won't feel the consequences of my mistakes."

"Sir Rama spoke too lightly. But the truth is much different from what Mr. Rama said."

"I promise. I'm going to get our company back to the way it was. You guys just calm down."

"alright. We keep the promise of Mr. Rama. If Rama does not manage to return the company to its normal state, then do not blame us if Mr. Rama will be in big trouble."

They disbanded after threatening Rama. Only Santi remained while looking at Rama with an annoyed look, but also feeling pity.
