Chick Intern And Duda Cool
Chapter 244 Meeting HRD

“Pak Arya, today the meeting is only one at 3-4 hours yes, sir. But I want a heads-up only if tomorrow the meeting will be in some slots. Next week there will be a business trip. This is not sudden yes, sir but it was told about a few months ago. It's just that the final date was only informed yesterday. For tickets, Mr Arya want to be booked as usual? For the hotel will be directly accommodated and arranged by our team in Sydney, sir. Same tomorrow there are two that clash too, this will be flanked huh, sir? Team 3 and team 5 invite meeting together for two different projects.”, Siska has entered the room of Mr. Arya and as usual provide updates related to his schedule.

The length he delivered might even be up to half a page of A4 if all combined into one.

“Pak Arya?”, call Siska again.

Unfortunately, either the man was focused on listening to his secretary or not. His gaze was indeed straight towards the books and tablets held by Siska but his gaze was blank.

“Pak? Mr. Arya~”, call Siska again while swinging his palm in front of Mr. Arya.

“Oh? You are here?”, asked Arya who turned out from a daydreaming.

‘Hah? Crazyaa…. Mr. Arya his king is most dazzling... I have been standing here since 10 minutes ago and he just said ‘you are here?’, he means whataaa?????’, cried Siska in the heart.

But outside he just let out a simple smile.

“Ha…. Yes, Mr. Arya, I'm here. Do I need to repeat what I told you?”, said Siska with a forced smile.

“According to you, Dinda will be fine? The female employees in the Business and Partners division are not as scary as she imagined, right? Hm.. he was still afraid when he just entered.”, said Arya while leaning her chin in her hand and thinking seriously.

‘Hah? He was thinking only of his wife? A Mr Arya, in the office daydreaming about women? If anyone says Dinda used a spell, I believe you.. The problem is this ice cubes can melt, how is the story? Even he didn't notice me talking at all.’, Siska could only mutter inwardly.

He didn't want to be taken by his boss in the morning. Although Arya mana might scold him. It is precisely he who must scold himself for not focusing morning - morning.

“Kira - guess what James will talk about? If I talk to Gerald how do you think?”, asked Arya who immediately jumped into the topic of per-HRD and.

“Father knows for yourself that Gerald and James have not been very good lately. But will James choose to cut Dinda, sir? I don't think.”, Siska expressed her opinion.

“Do you think so? Why do I think otherwise. Is it excessive if I accompany Dinda when meeting with James?”, asked Arya.

‘Tumben really Pak Arya asked my opinion. Usually dicuekin continues.’, thought Siska in heart.

“Iya Sir, it looks like it will look excessive.”, reply Siska.

“Hm.. yes already.. Continue earlier what did you say?”, said Arya was not interested in asking Siska's opinion again because the answers she gave were always the opposite.

“So today I made sure Mr. Arya meeting...”, Siska repeated the information again.

However, not to mention Siska finished speaking, Arya had already cut him off.

“Hah... It seems like I have to talk to Gerald about this.”, Arya said again about Dinda.

‘Pak Aryaaaaaa....’, cried Siska in heart.

“I haven't had a meeting, have I? I'm going to the HRD floor first. You prepare all reports related to team projects 3 and 5. From there I decided which one needed further discussion and which one did not. For next week's flight, please book the ticket as usual.”, Arya said standing from her seat and exiting.

Soon the door closed.

“Hah? Doi with what I'm talking about? Then why is his view daydreaming like that?”, asked Siska confused.

*************

“Halo...?”, Dinda picked up the phone from HRD staff named Doni.

“Dinda, you have a meeting this afternoon? If there is no Mr. James would like to meet for a moment.”, said Doni delivered his message.

“No. Ok.”, said Dinda received the order.

“Okay, then awaited, yes.”, said Doni hang up his phone.

The clock shows at 11:30. This conversation should not take up to an hour and he could still meet Arya for lunch together. So, she also did not need to send a message to her husband.

“Where are you Din?”, asked Delina.

“Go see Mr. James, mba.”, replied Dinda.

Delina who heard it only nodded in understanding. Dinda walked over to Rini's desk to ask permission first before heading out to the elevator.

While waiting for the elevator to come, Dika suddenly appeared. The man hasn't been seen in the office since Dinda arrived. The sudden atmosphere was a little awkward. Some people who boarded the elevator together with Dika, the majority of whom are employees of the Business and Partners Division, they whispered to each other when they realized who they saw Dika and Dinda who were involved in the incident a few days ago.

“Siang Pak.”, greet Dinda just a formality because seeing his boss passing by.

“Oh, are you in? Where are you going?”, ask Dika to the point.

“Meeting Mr. James, Mr.”, Dinda replied briefly.

“Hm.. after lunch can meet me for a while?”, said Dika.

“Ee... well, Mr.”, replied Dinda.

Ting.

The elevator again appeared to be open. Dinda immediately bothered and boarded it.

 Tok tok tok tok tok tok

“Oh.. Dinda. Please enter.”, said James invited Dinda who was already standing in front of his room.

“Please sit. How are you doing? Already better? I heard you entered the hospital and took a few days off.”, asked Mr. James as HRD interns greet kindly.

On the way to the HRD room, Dinda already parno if - if his response is less friendly. But all are opposite. He kept his hospitality.

“Alhamdulillah well, Mr.”, Dinda replied briefly.

“Good. I'm sure you already know why I invited you to meet.”

“Iya, Mr.”, Dinda's response seemed to give a sign that he listened to James' words.

“First, I regret an incident in the lobby a few days ago where non-employees came to the office and attacked unilaterally employees in this company. Not only for non-employees, for anyone should such things should not happen especially in the office environment. The management has given an appeal to the security services to be able to tighten their guard against employees who enter.”, said Mr. James explained by running.

“Both, related to the information we have received and we have confirmed with Mr. Arya Pradana that you and he have been bound in legal marriage status since approximately 7 months ago. Simultaneously, the HRD team separately has also asked for information on Mr. Arya. We have also validated that your recruitment process as an intern at this company has nothing to do with Mr. Arya because at that time you did not know each other or involved in any form.”, you are not, clearly Mr. James recounts important points captured by the HRD.

“Although this matter is a personal matter, but to eliminate the suspicion of employees of HRD professionalism, we will send an email notification to clarify the point.”

“Furthermore, related to your internal period when Mr. Arya served as Head of the interim Division for Digital and Development is in the process of inspection. I wanted to call you after the process was over but I think it was less effective. Therefore I call you now, at once to ask you as part of the.” process

“During working under the leadership of Mr Arya, have you ever received special treatment from him in terms of work?”, asked Mr James.

This time his tone was more serious than before. Dinda did not expect this meeting to go directly to the HRD examination process where she was not ready. Although the question is very standard and simple.

“No, Sir. Not at all.”, replied Dinda steady despite being nervous.

Sometimes even innocent people can be nervous when asked in situations like this.

“What during working under the leadership of Mr Arya, he told the internal case of the Business and Partners division that has something to do with Digital and Development to you outside the context of work?”, he said, ask James back.

“No, Sir. Mr. Arya never discussed about work at home.”, replied Dinda. This time he began to be confident to answer questions from James.

“Can you provide a reason why your relationship was not notified in advance? If nothing happened a few days ago, is there no plan to tell? Sorry I have to ask this.”, said Mr. James.

Dinda shut up for a second. He was confused as to what to answer because there was a personal element in the answer he was thinking about right now.

There was no way he would answer that if they were betrothed, they did not know that their marriage had come this far, they did not expect their relationship to develop from just married strangers to real married husbands. It's too personal and private.

“If you don't feel like telling me why, It’s okay. No problem.”, said James understood that Dinda had trouble responding to his question.

“I am worried that I will be dismissed if I have marital status with Mr. Arya. At that time Mr. Arya was still serving as the Head of the Provisional Division for Digital and Development, Mr.”, said Dinda honestly.

“H.. See i.. Sorry if I said this. However, back then or now, in the process, the results will remain the same. But I will try to give you the best choice. One more thing. I'm sorry if for a while your convert offer as a permanent employee for the IT division will be temporarily held until there is a decision from HRD regarding your internship status.”, etc, said HRD said it slowly and quietly.

He knows as an internal employee, Dinda is looking for experience and career portfolio in this company so that her career in the future can be better. Therefore, James as HRD also faces a difficult choice. Moreover, he also had to discuss with Gerald.

“Then we have enough discussion today. Thank you for your time. You can continue lunch.”, said James invited Dinda to resign.

“Good. Thank you, Mr.”, reply Dinda then inched a step outside.

Next to the HRD door, Arya was already standing while leaning against one of the cold ones there. Frightened by the words HRD said earlier, Dinda did not even notice that her husband was there.

“Ehem.. how did it turn out?”, Arya asked immediately surprisingly.

“Astaghfirullah.. Mr. Arya. Just marvel.”, Dinda responded while glancing right and left.

His habit of still observing the atmosphere around each interact with Arya in the office is still not lost. Luckily, at that time it was in the lunch hour and the people in the lobby of the HRD office were also empty.

“Sini..”, said Dinda called Arya to cover exiting the HRD area while whispering.

Arya just smiled. He had already seen Gerald this morning about 2 hours before Dinda met James. He already knew what James might have been talking about to Dinda.

His heart felt guilty but he did not want to show it. The thought that if Dinda had not married him, surely the girl could have gone through her internship well and had a brilliant career.

But, as soon as Arya immediately threw away that thought. Yeah, he can't help himself being selfish just thinking about it. If she's not married to Dinda, maybe Arya still spends almost every night in bars and clubs.

Approached by several women who alternated. Go home with emptiness. Blind to the fact that Sarah is no longer the same.

Flashback when Arya was in Gerald's room. 

“I’m afraid the result would be the same. I understand that you are very professional even your career now proves it. You didn't give Dinda any preferential treatment. After all the girl was also an intern who had very minimal interaction with senior level like you. But Arya, referring to the process that we have, until now the conclusion is still the same. Dinda had to quit her position as intern.”, Gerald explained. 

“But now I have nothing to do with the Digital and Development division anymore. It is not clear that I did not accept the position offered before because I did not want any internal partisanship in the division. It wasn't even 6 months. Less than 6 months.”, said Arya gave her defense. 

“I. I'm trying because sister Dinda's status is internal, not permanent staff. But, you need to know, the only best decision we can make is to let Dinda finish her internal life. Related to the previous offer, we had to cancel it.”, said Gerald. 

Arya sighed. 

Flashback finished

“Lunch is so?”, asked Dinda.

“Hn. so dong. That's why I'm here.”, Arya replied.

“Yes already, we are talking in the car only, may Sir?”, asked Dinda.

“Hn.”, Arya replied pressing the elevator button down.

“But I don't have a.” wallet, said Dinda.

“Create what? I paid.”, said Arya astonished.

“Not so, not good sir if you do not bring a wallet and mobile phone. For a moment I take ya.”, said Dinda pressing the floor of the Digital and Development division which is also the floor of Business and Partners to retrieve his wallet and mobile phone.

Arya came out, but she waited while leaning against the wall by the door waiting. He opened his phone and replied to some messages.

“Din, your husband was nyariin.”, said someone eagerly told Dinda.

“Ah.. haha yes mba. Already met. Thanks yes mba.”, reply Dinda.

“Not lunch?”, asked Dinda to the woman earlier.

“Gak, again fasting.”, he replied.

“Oh.. fasting Monday Thursday huh? Hopefully smoothly until breaking yes, mba.”, reply Dinda before finally taking her wallet and phone and then excuse her out.

“What is Arya doing here? Waiting for someone?”, Susan has just come from the doorway used by Business and Partners because it is closer to their area.

He was with some of his teammates. Looks like they're having lunch together.

“Hn.. Well this is it.”, Arya said at the same time Dinda appeared from the door next to her.

The appointed Dinda was shocked and stopped her steps. She looked down from the focus of looking for something in her wallet so she could not see who was in front of her.

“Aduh..”, to his surprise, Dinda accidentally dropped something from her wallet.

Dinda was looking for a food receipt to show Arya. He once dined there with the Digital and Development team and the menu was delicious. Dinda tried to find the receipt to find out what menu she ordered.

While trying to issue the receipt, Dinda even dropped the wedding photo that she overtook behind her 4 x 6 photo. The photo she used at the time to apply for the wedding form to KUA.

Meanwhile, a falling wedding photo is her favorite wedding photo when Arya kisses her suddenly. Dito never gave those instructions. Dinda immediately hurried to pick it up, but he was a little difficult because his stomach also showed a baby bump.

“No worries, I’ll take it.”, said Arya saw the frantic face of his wife.

Arya took the photo, from a distance, she already knew the photo. Of course, he was the male lead in the photo. While taking it, Arya immediately pocketed the photo and smiled meaningfully at Dinda.

Those who were also waiting for the elevator there could only look questioningly. The picture was too small for them to see. But, unlike Susan who was at a close distance with Arya. He had seen a little photo of it and could interpret what the photo was.

“Siang Bu Susan.”, greet Dinda politely.

“Siang.”, Susan replied briefly while giving her thin smile.

Without anyone to say anything, Susan was able to figure out that the two had lunch plans together.

Ting.

Elevator door opens. All in. Fortunately there were not many people who went down the stairs so the elevator was quite empty. All could only be quiet inside without speaking a word.

“Enjoy the lunch.”, said Arya as Susan gave a great expression to go to their respective destinations.

Arya and Dinda proceed to the next elevator to the basement. The places they will visit need the help of a car to get there.

“So you want to talk about something after meeting HRD. What?”, asked Arya.

Dinda just recalled her meeting with HRD earlier. The girl immediately hugged Arya from the passenger seat.

“Hm.. From your reaction, the conversation did not go smoothly?”, asked Arya, even though she already knew how it turned out.

“I can already guess how their decision. But still I feel sad. Sorry, Arya, that doesn't mean I'm sorry about our marriage. It's just..”, Dinda cried sobbing.

“Hn. It's okay - what. It's natural that you're disappointed. But It’s definitely not the end for you, babe.”, said Arya calming his wife.

“Sorry yes, I messed up his lunch plan.”, Dinda said as she calmed down.

Arya just smiled.

“It's quiet now? Oiya, did you not forget something?”, asked Arya before driving her car.

“Hm?”, Dinda put on a confused face.

“It. I did not know you reprinted this photo to save yourself.”, Arya said issued a photo of Dinda who had fallen.

“A-ah.. mas Arya..here.”, Dinda's response while still occasionally sobbing because of the former cry. But his laughter had broken out of embarrassment.

“So among many photos, you chose this photo?”, asked Arya to retract the photo when Dinda tried to take it.

“I-ih.. mas Arya, here's the photo.”, said Dinda gave up because her hand was too sore it reached Arya's hand.

“Eh eh heart - heart, later your stomach hit this.”, said Arya held his wife's hand so as not to try to reach too far.

“Arya is very nosy..”, said Dinda still wipe her tears.

“While the time this photo was taken, your expression is direct.”, said Arya.

“Siniin mas Arya's photo. Already at this hour, Arya mas indeed no meeting.”, said Dinda.

“Haha yes, nih.. Well saved - well yes.. Do not fall again, later the other on ngiri.”, said Arya starter his car.

“Ge-er.”, said Dinda cleaning her already messy face from tears.

“Mood you can be like that roller coaster. Up and down changed - change.”, Arya said.

“One of whom.”, said Dinda gave a response.

The girl was unloading her usual bag in the car, hoping she kept some powder here to brighten her face.

***********

“Pak Arya if his wife is very different, yes.”, said an employee who had met Arya in the elevator.

“Yes, his wife wants to be like an ice cube too.”

“Ya.. aja, doi tetep plate is just as rich if again in the office. Without expression and aura makes goosebumps.”

“You think he jin makes goosebumps.”

“Justify? Try it if again the presentation trus arrived - he pointed at you. Even if you know the answer, just if doi who asked innately makes you nervous.”

“Still unexpected it turns out Mr. Arya is married.”

“You up to how many times you talk like that.”

“Why we do not realize yes, lately Mr. Arya is rich in that. Pro really doi in the office until not found out if married.”
