"What's Wid?" alex asked, looking closely at Widi.
"There is a big boss Mr. Alex" Widi replied.
"Papa came here? the same woman as well?"
Widi nodded. "Yes Mr. Alex."
"You're saying I'm here?"
"Yes Mr. Alex. Excuse me. I can't lie to your father anymore."
"alright. Get them in!"
Alex is upset by his father's arrival. Every time her father came, he must have brought her stepmother Rita. And Alex is sickest of meeting Rita.
Alex has never liked Rita. He hated a woman named Rita. Because according to Alex, because of the woman, Alex's birth mother went crazy. And now he's still in a mental hospital.
"Rita. I hate him so much. I'm sick of it, if only Papa had come with that woman. Why isn't he just crazy. Why should mama," said Alex by clenching his two hands growled.
Widi then comes out of Alex's room to meet Mr. Rajasa his big boss.
Shortly thereafter, Mr. Rajasa's father Alex emerges from behind Alex's door. On Mr. Rajasa's side walking, there was a woman like Alex, holding a friendly hand Mr. Rajasa.
Yes, she is Rita, the new wife of Mr. Rajasa who is still old as Alex. Mr. Rajasa deliberately married a woman who was younger than him. Because Mr. Rajasa wants someone to take care of him in his old age.
Because Mr. Rajasa's own wife, is old and now he is in a mental hospital because of the psychiatric disorder he suffered.
"Alexes. You can't avoid papa anymore Alex" Rajasa said as he walked up to Alex.
"Now, Papa wants you to explain. Why the financial condition of the company. We're producing stuff every day, but there's not the slightest advantage Alex has. Our company's finances are declining. If the conditions like this continue, it can bankrupt our company Alex," said Mr. Rajasa stared intently at Alex.
"Huh, Pa. Why the hell, if papa comes here, must discuss the financial problems of the company. Papa doesn't have to worry about that Pa. I can handle it myself" Alex said with confidence.
"Alexes. Supposedly, you do not want to use company money for your own interests. Stop you for fun and play girls." Rita goes along with the speech that makes Alex angry.
Alex looked at Rita.
"Shut up Rita...! I'm not talking to you" Alex said, pointing at Rita's face with her index finger.
"Alexes. Stop calling her Rita. She's your mother now. Call her mom or mama!" sentak Rajasa Pak.
"I don't want to have a two-faced mother like her!"
"Already, already, why every time you meet, you must be fighting. It is not good for you to fight at all. The condition of the company is now faltering. Supposedly, we can work together to restore this situation as it was before."
"No need to talk to you! I know, you married my father only for possessions. And you, you're the one who drove my mom crazy" Alex said in a high tone.
Rita and Rajasa stared at each other. Alex got up from his seat. Without saying anything, he left his room. Alex was unable to face his father and stepmother who always blamed him.
"I'm sorry Rita, with my son's behavior. Because he never wants to respect you as his mother" said Mr. Rajasa while patting Rita on the shoulder.
"Here you go, let it go. maybe Alex hasn't accepted me as a mother yet."
Mr. Rajasa and Rita then go outside of Alex's room. They're tired, too, actually with Alex. Because Alex is a very difficult child to organize and be given understanding. He is very selfish and self-absorbed.
