"That's dad!" archi muttered when he realized the whereabouts of his father.
Before his father finds out he is there, Archi inching to find a place to hide. At the same time, from the corner of his eye, Dad noticed the unusual movement of a girl in front of the reception desk. Curiously he turned his face to look towards the movement.
Archi slumped behind the reception desk, crouching next to the receptionist chair. Her tense face looked up at the startled and confused receptionist. Archi also gave a signal to the mbak mbak who was watching to be silent by putting an index finger on his lips. Although not understanding, the receptionist complied with Archi's request and returned to work.
"I'm like looking at Archi?" mumbling Dad circulated his gaze but found nothing. He also refocused on talking with his friend. "Maybe it's just my shadow" Dad said as he entered the elevator.
Pulling his body half up, Archi peeked towards his father just now. To make sure his father had left. Feeling safe, Archi came out from behind the reception desk while stroking his chest and exhaling a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, ma'am" Archi said to the beautiful receptionist with thin hair back, and dressed in a neat green uniform.
"Yes," replied the receptionist with a name tag that read Widya with a friendly smile.
"Oh yes, I want to see Mr. Ludwig" Archi told the receptionist.
"Have you made an appointment before?" ask the beautiful Widya.
"It is." replied Archi
"With whose lady? Make his promise via what?" ask Widya to make sure.
"Archi, via mobile phone." replied Archi.
"Alright Miss Archi, Mr. Ludwig is in her room on the 6th floor. There will be another receptionist there, please ask again there" Widya explained.
"Oh well. Thank you again." said Archi with a cheerful smile.
"Together."
Archi took the elevator to the sixth floor. After he got there he obeyed Widya to ask the receptionist again. The friendly and polite receptionist there, named Fuji directs Archi to Mr. Ludwig's room.
After confirming to Mr. Ludwig, the Secretary kindly invited Archi to enter Mr. Ludwig's room.
"Oh Miss Archi. Mr. Ludwig was already waiting inside," he opened the door for Archi. "Please Miss!" said inviting.
With the movement of his lips Archi formed the word Waw when he saw the room of Mr. Ludwig is large and modern style. A large leather sofa forming the white letter L is in the middle of the room. Coffee tables made of glass are very suitable in front of the sofa. On the other hand there is a large wooden table with a thick shiny brown. Behind him, Mr. Ludwig sits comfortably leaning on his large work chair.
"You've come Archi!" welcome Mr. Ludwig to his feet and walk slowly with his walking stick.
Archi approached Mr. Ludwig with quick and helpful steps, wiping him out walking all the way to the sofa.
"Thank you!" said Mr. Ludwig slowly sitting on the sofa.
"Together Master." replied Archi smiling.
"Why do you call me Master, not Grandpa anymore." protested Mr. Ludwig.
"Oh, sorry Grandpa. Earlier, because I talked to Mr. Ridwan so call Grandpa with Mister."
"Oh so. Sit down!" tell Mr. Ludwig, point at the sofa. "Where did you get my phone number?" asked the curious Mr. Ludwig after Archi sat down.
"Oh, from Mr. Ridwan. Mr. Ridwan got it from the CEO."
"Oh. It's so good to see you again. I think we'll be able to see each other for a long time" said Mr. Ludwig chuckling.
"Yes Grandpa. I think so too."
Mr. Ludwig's personal secretary came in and delivered a drink for the two of them and then went back outside.
"Thank you Grandpa." replied Archi raised his teacup and drank it shamelessly. Because Honest Archi felt thirsty during the journey all the way here.
"But by the way what made you come to see me? Did anyone bother you at the office?" ask Mr. Ludwig.
"Ah.not Grandpa. If anything bothers me there I just have to answer, I am the grandson of Mr. Ludwig" Archi replied proudly, chuckling.
"Hahaha.you still remember it." Mr. Ludwig laughed.
"Sure grandfather." replied Archi putting the teacup back on the table.
"So you're here for?"
"Em..why?" Archi considered the answer he would give to Mr. Ludwig in order to smooth his steps in the investigation of Agust's true identity.
"If I told you straight away, I'd like to see the employee database, Grandpa would be suspicious and think things through. It's best not to, I have to look for this information slowly." Inner Archi.
"I want to ask grandfather for help" Archi replied in the end.
"Please what?" Mr. Ludwig's eyes narrowed with a probing glance.
"I want to be able to work in this company, Grandpa." Archi cetus slightly lowered his head.
"Heu?" Mr. Ludwig's eyebrows shot up, shocked by what he had just heard.
"You want to move to work? What's wrong with your company now?" ask Mr. Ludwig.
"Why Grandpa. I just wanted to try a new challenge." replied Archi.
"Hem. Then you can meet the Manager who takes care of this. He's in the room next to me. Meet him and say you were told by me yes" said Mr. Ludwig smiling brightly.
"What's the truth, cake?" tanya Archi was flabbergasted in disbelief.
"Sure, definitely accepted. But for what part will he determine who matches your qualifications."
"Gee.thank you so much Grandpa... Thanks very much!" archi said, kissing Mr. Ludwig's hand.
"Yes.iya...sama-sama!" Mr. Ludwig chuckled at Archi's exuberant behavior.
"It's great that you can work here" said Mr. Ludwig.
"Yes the cake." Archi was still smiling.
"I'm happy because I can easily work here. This way I can find out about Agust. Whatever I do for Agust." thought Archi with a burning determination.
As per Mr. Ludwig Archi's instructions to meet the Manager next to Mr. Ludwig's office.
After meeting the secretary of the Manager and saying his intentions, Archi was welcome by him into the Manager's room.
"Excuse me!" sapa Archi was in the doorway with the door slightly open.
"Yes in!" The manager who was busy working with his laptop raised his head.
Archi gawked as he looked at the Manager's face. He just fell silent rigidly, his rounded eyes unblinking. This was an unpleasant surprise for Archi. The steps have been made easy to get this far but why have to meet an end like this? Her thought.
Remember, for the sake of Agust's past and future which is determined by his current efforts, making Archi try to strengthen himself. With great difficulty he fought his fear. Relieves the intense tremors in his body in the middle of his heartbeat that beats irregularly.
