The knock on the door was getting louder and more disturbing. Jonathan knew the man behind the door wouldn't stop if it hadn't opened for him.
Jonathan put on a tired face before opening the door of his room, but afterwards he breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing his brother-in-law's big smile behind the door.
"Have you slept?" asked Hanum without guilt. Jonathan just responded. If you know you're asleep why is the door knocked on?! Inner irritated.
"In search of your brother," said Hanum still with a wide engraved smile. Jonathan did not breathe a sigh of relief, apparently his relief had to be delayed first.
"Now?" jonathan asked while yawning big as if saying I was tired.
"It's better now, let's both sleep well." Jonathan's forehead frowned trying to decipher Hanum's sentence.
Jonathan followed Hanum's steps from behind. Her sister-in-law was either unwilling to tell, or completely ignorant of what her sister wanted to see her for these nights. Various predictions flashed in the head, including about the blisters on his brother's favorite car.
Alex's brother sat half-lying on the bed as Jonathan entered the room. True said people behavior of a person can change the atmosphere around him. This room felt even colder piercing as her brother looked at her without a flat expression.
"What's up, brother?" jonathan asked a little nervously. Though if gathered in the dining room, he could casually tease his brother, but once into the room which is the area of Alex's power, Jonathan suddenly lost his lewd ability.
"Tomorrow into the office, replace me" Alex said briefly and flatly.
Jonathan swallowed his saliva before replying. This brother indeed cannot speak a little stale, at least asking if he has other activities?, mind replacing his duties for a while? or at least ask for help. All his words were like an indisputable command.
"Get started next week? if there's no preparation, it's not good." Jonathan tried to bargain.
"What do you want to prepare? brains?"
If it wasn't his brother who said that, maybe Jonathan's hand would be on Alex's neck by now.
"Shirt brother, I'm not pu---"
"Open the closet, pick the one you like."
"Shoes too, I don't have work boots, they're ya--"
"Different size, if the clothes can borrow. Which shoes can it be?" Jonathan found the right reason.
"Your job is just sitting behind a desk, your shoes don't matter."
"Where it can be, I also have to appreciate the employees there. They look neat, I'm also har--"
"If there's still a lot of reasons, I'm asking for a car repair bill to be paid this week."
"Aa .. ee .. mm, okay" said Jonathan resigned.
"Tomorrow before eight o'clock in the morning, you should be in the office. Tomorrow there's a shareholders' meeting and your introduction as my official representative."
"From tomorrow all the company's decisions are in your hands, except for the crucial things you can discuss with me."
Jonathan just nodded his head resignedly to the orders Alex gave, while his brother-in-law stood behind her husband, encouraging him with gestures and tongue lips without a sound.
Jonathan not feel excited, but amused to see the behavior of Hanum whose character is very different from his brother.
"You hear what I'm saying, Jo?"
"Listen. All decisions are in my hands" Jonathan said.
"Not that, I said tomorrow don't be late." Alex turned to Hanum who made his sister laugh and put on a haunted face, his brother-in-law suddenly fell silent and did not dare to move.
