Arya had just finished her meeting with the regional. Supposedly, Arya's mood was very good today because the region praised his good performance in this month and was very enthusiastic about his performance going forward by holding 10 Business and partners teams as senior heads.
The announcement will be officially sent to all employees via email. Arya's profile photo is also in the process of being entered into a website portal with a new job title and description and lists several large projects that she has handled.
But on the contrary, Arya's mood is not karu - because today's head does not stop thinking about Dinda. His quarrels earlier this morning, the girl's words, the message from Dimas he saw on Dinda's phone, and the shadow - the shadow of the girl's interaction with her office colleagues - made Arya's head and heart hot.
But Arya is still too selfish to confess her feelings. Arya knew very well how enthusiastic Dinda was at her first job. Arya tried to be professional. He enjoyed his time with the girl. Has he completely forgotten Sarah? Can Arya confess her feelings to Dinda? All these questions filled his head.
Although there is one simple answer, but somehow the answer has not entered the head of an Arya Pradana.
There are still about 10 minutes to the next meeting. Arya used this time to go to the toilet. Afterwards, he turned towards the Digital and Development division to check on Dinda's whereabouts. Usually Dinda has sent a message asking when to go home, but until now, Arya has not received a single message.
‘Does he still work?’, asked Arya inwardly.
Arya also did not take the initiative to send a message first because she was also still thinking about their quarrel this morning. She was still disappointed by Dinda's words even though she realized she was actually wrong, until the girl drew her own conclusions.
Sadly, upon arriving at the DD division, Arya does not see Dinda or anyone she knows, except Erick.
“Rick, (Dinda) where?”, asked Arya while directing her glance at the chair that Dinda used to use.
There were still some people there, so he could not mention Dinda's name in the light either.
“It looks like home, Ar. Just the rest of me here. I also seem to be going home. Wh why? You guys aren't coming home together?”, Erick asked.
In Erick's mind, Dinda might go home first because Arya still has meetings.
“No. Yes already. Thanks for the report. There is no revision.”, Arya said before passing to her room.
“When to Bangkok?”
“Sunday night.”, Arya replied.
“Back again?”
“Seems Like Jum’at.”
“Uuu.. long time too. Hm... that (Dinda) was brought? Long time gone, I also seemed to keep meeting. So can not monitoring.”, said Erick tease Arya.
In fact, right now Arya is not in a mood that can be teased about such a thing. Arya did not respond to the words Erick said and immediately passed into her room.
‘Dia why? Is the moon coming? Why is the mood so bad?’, Erick asked inwardly.
Arya had arrived in her room again. It turned out that Gilbert's subordinate Business team was already standing in front of the room waiting for him.
“Loh, Mr Gilbert where?”, asked Arya.
“Half day leave, Sir. He said he had told Mr. Arya.”, said one of Gilbert's subordinates. There were 4 people present there. One carried a laptop, two carried documents, and the other carried a pen.
“Engga. No leave request email came to me today.”, said Arya.
“Oh.. time? Mr. Gilbert took the bag and went straight home. When asked, he said he had permission for half a day and asked us to replace meeting.”, said one of them who has the position of Assistant Manager.
“Nothing. All right, come in.”, Arya orders in a cold tone.
Without much intro, they started the meeting. Arya raised a lot of critical questions at this meeting.
“Who did the analysis?”, asked Arya.
“Sir Gilbert, Mr.”, replied one of them.
“You're not involved?”, asked Arya again.
One by one the lyrics interlock - glare at the other and do not directly answer questions from Arya.
“Why? So you guys meeting here, from earlier explaining A-Z which I think is not clear just armed with presentation materials from Gilbert? The person is not even there now.”, Arya has pulled out her fangs.
He no longer mentions the word ‘Pak’ in front of the name Gilbert even though the manager is already 40 years old, and older than Arya.
Plaque..Arya slammed the presentation documents given to her onto the table and left the others shocked.
“I've said many times. You have the potential to provide input. In the office, you don't work alone but a team. Until when do you have to keep up with Gilbert?”'s will, Arya ruffled her hair out of frustration at seeing her subordinates.
Arya thought this would happen again. Team 5 under Gilbert has made many mistakes. Not because of his men but because of Gilbert himself. According to Arya, she is too individualistic and still upholds seniority.
According to him, his opinion was the most correct and did not open up an opportunity for his subordinates to give an opinion. Even at a time like this, he was not even present.
Ting Tong.Arya's phone read a sign of a message coming in.
Arya is a person who rarely opens a phone when meeting. However, due to this problem in team 5, he decided to open his phone and read a message that might be important to clear his mind.
Arya saw the incoming message from an unknown number. He has not opened the message and just seen from the notification only. It looks like the sender sent the photo to Arya. Thinking that it was an unimportant message, Arya simply put down her phone.
“Ya. There's still a week. I'll ask team 8 to help you. Mr. Albert seems willing to provide support. I will contact him tomorrow.”, said Arya.
“But instead of Gilbert sir not under Arya?” sir, one of them ventured to ask.
“Start now all Business and Partners teams are under me. You may get the information tomorrow.”, Arya's sentence immediately gives a shock effect on the others. They were powerless to hide their shocked and amazed expressions.
“Oh.. congratulations Mr. Arya.”, they said then realized that it looks like Arya's level is getting higher.
Tong Ting
Arya's phone went off again. Like earlier, he did not immediately open the contents of the incoming message but only saw from the notification.
From: Unknown number
It seems you haven't seen the photo I sent you.
Are you sure you don't want to see your girlfriend with another guy?
The message came from an unknown number. Arya immediately opened the message and saw a photo that showed Dinda with Dimas. The photo was taken from an angle that showed Dimas and Dinda looking close. Anyone who saw this picture would assume Dimas did something to Dinda.
Arya's face that had been tense even more stiffened. His eyes were sharp when he saw the photo.
“We continue meeting tomorrow. You guys can go out.”, said Arya immediately ordered all her subordinates who were in the room to return.
Arya's movement certainly made the employee, some other employees who had not returned home, and Erick confused.
“Pak Arya, why? How was the meeting?”, someone asked.
They ask why Arya arrived - immediately rushed like that.
‘Ah. It seems like tomorrow is not a good time to ask for a signature.’, at least that's the average thought of the employee who saw Arya's expression just now.
******
In the parking lot a few minutes ago before the photo was taken and sent to Arya's cell phone.
Dinda was waiting for the elevator to return to the lobby. She accidentally meets Dimas and cannot ride because the elevator is already full of other people.
“Loh, Dinda? What are you doing here alone?”, asked Dimas.
“Ah.. was invited home by mba Delina. Co-worker who was often with me to the Cafe, who liked to use short skirts and long wavy hair was black.”, Dinda explained as Dimas had no idea who she meant.
“Ahhh. I-i know. Trus why is still here. He's grabbing a car?”
“It turns out he had to come back soon for a reason and not go home together. Now I want to go to the lobby to order an ojek online.”, said Dinda.
Because Dimas asked her to speak, Dinda forgot to put the elevator button up. There, there was no one else but them.
“Oh.. then just ride my car.”, said Dimas offer.
“No - no. It's okay, I just wait for the ojek online.”, replied Dinda.
“You consistently rejected my invitation. Hm.. because Arya?”
Dinda just kept quiet and that was enough to be the answer to Dimas.
“It’s okay. Oh yeah, I have a gift for you.”
“Eh?”, asked Dinda confused.
He thought Dimas would stop and continue his journey to his car in the parking lot. It turns out he was offering a gift. Dinda's expression was confused. A bounty? Did he re-know? That's what Dinda thought.
“Aaa. not what - what.. Just a small gift that I also shared with some other colleagues. I think you like green tea. Every time you go to the cafe, you always order green tea. I got a souvenir from one of the cafe distributors. The green tea is delicious and it is unlimited. Not yet in free production. I remember you and would love to give it to you.”, explained Dimas.
“Oh. not necessary. I accept your good intentions. But I cannot accept the gift.”, replied Dinda refused.
“Ayohe. I promise I won't offer you to ride in my car or drive you home. I just want you to receive this gift. As the owner of the cafe, I would love to give you this tea. The tea is delicious. I also gave it to some other colleagues. Just relax.”, said Dimas.
Dinda felt bad because she saw the sincerity from Dimas' eyes to purely give him this gift.
“Alright, then. Thank you very much.”
“Then, come with me for a moment. My car's in the line, the tea's in there. Take it easy, basement lifts are usually very long. I am sure it will come soon.”, said Dimas.
Dinda followed Dimas to his car. Dimas' car was parked in a very open front area, so Dinda thought it would be okay.
“It's original and very famous green tea. They carry out a special process to produce it and maintain the originality of taste and aroma. You must follow the instructions in the book in this box in order to enjoy tea with pleasure....”, Dimas continues to explain about the green tea he gave to Dinda. Dimas gave the box away while explaining.
Every now and then he pointed at some icons and pictures in the box to show the elements that were being described. Dimas also retrieved the book from the box he had opened in his car.
“Well, later if you have opened this tea, you can find this book in it. …..”, Dimas continues to explain some important points in the book.
Dinda loves green tea. Hearing Dimas' very detailed explanation attracted him and drew a little closer to see more clearly the pages in the book that Dimas pointed out.
That's when someone they didn't realize was around, taking pictures of Dimas and Dinda. He takes a very good angle and can make anyone misunderstand. That person directly sent the photo to Arya. Two minutes waiting, there is no sign Arya read/see the message.
Finally the person again gave a clearer chat so that Arya opened and saw the photo. Once the message has been read, the person smiles and is curious waiting for what will happen next.
He wished there was someone else there, but nothing. No one but Dinda and Dimas is still talking about tea.
After waiting for a few minutes, the elevator in basement 2 opened. Someone's out. Only themselves. The mysterious person who took the photo earlier could see from where he was hiding and covered his mouth holding a laugh because that came true Arya. He could not wait to imagine what would happen next.
Arya came with a sharp gaze looking towards left and right before finally discovering the whereabouts of Dinda and Dimas. As they were facing forward, they were unaware of the presence of Arya who was already walking straight towards them.
“ Anyway, you make sure the order is correct. Ohiya do not close if it has been opened. Remember, keep it in a place where the temperature is as directed…. “, Dimas still explains enthusiastically. Suddenly, someone pulled Dinda's arm tightly.
“Ikut I...”, said Arya instantly pulled rough Dinda's arm without thinking and caring about Dimas who was also surprised because of the presence of the man.
“Mas.. Mas Aryan's.. “, Dinda who is still surprised and confused by the presence of Arya who immediately pulled her arm can only moan in pain because the man's grip is strong enough.
“Mas Arya what - fuck. Mas... sick.. mas.. mas Arya..”, Dinda is still moaning. Arya's car was also parked not far from there. Just a few dozen meters.
Hearing Dinda moaning in pain, Dimas who had not wanted to interfere followed them.
“Arya... You are what, he has said sick. Release.”, said Dimas.
“Heh.. Shutup. None of your business. She's my wife. You better leave before I beat you here.”, Arya said threateningly. Look at his sharp eyes. Dimas never saw Arya's angry expression.
Dimas decided to follow Arya and dodged because he did not want to make a fuss. Dinda also gave a gaze so that Dimas would not interfere.
“Masuk.”, Arya orders Dinda to get the girl in the car.
Dinda who is confused by Arya's attitude can only follow her orders and get into the car. Arya then closed the car door on Dinda's side firmly until the girl gasped in shock.
Arya did not get into her car. He approached Dimas and pulled his collar.
“I warned you not to approach my wife. You son of a bitch, I will take care of you later.”, Arya said firmly.
He took off his grip and got into the car and drove it violently. Dinda did not dare to glance towards Arya and just kept silent while thinking about what mistake she had made. Dinda is confused, she feels like she has done nothing to make Arya angry.
“Mas Arya where are we going?”, Dinda saw Arya did not take her usual path. Arya turned in the other direction.
As she approached her destination, Dinda realized that it seemed Arya was taking her to the apartment.
‘He why the hell? Why did he get angry? Why didn't he come home and bring me here? Usually he comes here if it gets stuck, overnight, or .. is there a problem to be solved? Butwhat? I don't feel like I made a mistake. Is he jealous? No way, this morning he wouldn't answer my question, so he might be jealous. Then what?’, Dinda can only ask questions in her heart.
