HELLO, MY BOSS!
Better to Die
A few minutes passed, Rico managed to escape all tensions between him and Mr. Farhan to be able to continue the next intention. The man opened the brown envelope he was carrying, then held out all the data to Farhan.
"His name is Alex, he is very smart and has a high intellectual. Not only is he able to replace me as your assistant, but I am confident that Alex can bring the Revical Group a lot better in the future. The millennial blood contained within his body implied it all. His achievements in the company are very good and reliable, sir." Like a pot salesman, Rico explains all the greatness of Alex in front of Farhan so that the man is tempted. But Farhan was unmoved without comment.
(Intro: Inget didn't Siska get tainted by Cello's lips until Alex didn't get it? Reyno once promised Alex a job at her parents' place, right? Here's what.)
Glancing at Farhan's silent expression, Rico continued speaking again. "Alex is a karyayawan who was sent directly by the late young master Reyno. He worked at the headquarters as an age manager. Before I had tested the feasibility of the child, although still continuing S2, but the work is very good," said Rico.
Actually, what guides Alex is Lolita, a friend and business friend of Rico who has been secretly helping him. The woman was the girl who had been caught by Farhan when Rico was walking together in Bandung. Where Rico dodged when asked Farhan. Because he did deliberately do some secret meetings with Lolita specifically to see the development of Alex.
Rico opens sheet by sheet about the achievements that Alex achieved. " Mister can see for himself. At the age of 24 years, Alex already has this much achievement. It's also—"
"Stop!" Farhan cuts Rico's explanation next. "I don't need a new assistant, leave if you really want to go." Farhan spoke without looking at Rico. The tone of the bitter voice mingled haughtily it made Rico's heart feel sliced, sliced.
The sentence was too painful until Rico was frustrated with his boss' attitude. The pain remained even though he himself knew that what Farhan said was not serious.
Rico tried to increase his patience even higher. He immediately tidied up all the files on the table before Farhan tore them apart. "This is my last resort, sir. I hope you understand my decision."
Feeling upset, Farhan again said, "What about your promise?" Farhan again comes into contact with the past. Like a woman who doesn't want to be decided, Farhan charges for something Rico has said.
"I really hate people who break Rico's promises, don't you know that?" Farhan exploded again. His stern face implied a deep disappointment. He flinch for a moment, waiting for Rico's next answer.
Rico replied with all his resignation if it had been Farhan's wish. "Hate me as you please, Sir. As long as you let me go, it doesn't matter" Rico replied in despair.
"Do I have to kneel before you to stay?" That tired soul brought Farhan at his weakest point. Like a child who lost a mother figure, that was what Farhan felt at this moment.
"Sir, understand for this time only. I'm doing my best for you. Maybe I can't tell you the exact reason, but this is for our common good."
"By the way I'm going?" Weak Farhan spoke. His eyes began to redden, gathering water particles that wanted to spill immediately.
"Just shut it down!" bluff Farhan while raising intonation. "Rather than you go back to your father's company, you'd rather die Rico. At least that's more valuable than going back to a crazy father who could throw his son and wife away."
Farhan's words ignited Rico's emotions. He took the gun that had been enthroned in the inner clothes as fast as lightning. "What's like this?"
Crazy, maybe that one word is worth pinning for the attitude of Rico who has not found a way anymore.
The gun was pointing at his left heart. It only takes one tap, then his life will be floated.
"Do it if you dare. Indeed dying is much better than bowing under the devil's disguise of father," Farhan suggested with a cynical face. Hoping Rico would falter with his crazy determination.
For the last time Rico looked at Farhan fiercely."You think I don't dare, sir?"
Farhan's speech made Rico challenged, he spoke out loud. In a time when life choices are difficult, perhaps dying is the best path according to Farhan's advice. So he pressed the gun deeper, making Farhan's eyes bully in disbelief.
The duarrr!
Luckily Farhan was still able to pull over until the bullet only hit the left shoulder. Rico smiled bitterly as he managed to shoot the gun into his body.
"You're crazy!" Farhan snapped at Rico with a thunderous voice. His heart was racing violently as fresh blood flowed from Rico's body.
Rico's eyes closed for a moment, he deliberately did not hold the wound so that the blood flowed to the end. "Yes, I was crazy for deciding to go back to her. As you wish, Farhan! To die is far better than bowing under the feet of a demon under the guise of father."
Shortly thereafter, guards and bodyguards came into their rooms. Farhan is instantly secured because everyone thinks that the man killed Rico.
