Ritz-Carlton Hotel New York, auction area ballroom
"The first auction was Cabernet Sauvignon in 1960... We open at $30,000." The voice of the auction official sounded in that ballroom. Ajeng only gawked at the price of one bottle of the red-colored drink.
Is it that good? - mind Ajeng. I think it still tastes good Marjan syrup...
"Yes, number 9. Anything else?"
Ajeng turned his head to see who was bidding. Dante Mancini's? Ajeng looked at Bayu who just patted the girl's hand.
How rich is a Dante Mancini? Suddenly Ajeng's head felt dizzy. O'Grady family itself allegedly has a fortune, let alone a large family Pratomo? Wait, the Bianchi family and Mancini Turin are wine and wine entrepreneurs... Ajeng held his temple. It is natural to bid, they are also collectors.
Bayu glanced towards Ajeng who looked preoccupied with his own thoughts. Secretly the man smiled faintly as he felt uneasy with his secretary who was stunned by the auction event.
Finally the rare wine was sold at a price of $74,000 and the one who bought it was Antonio Bianchi. Ajeng became increasingly dizzy. Duh, they are yaa. Jeng, Ajeng. Your level is grunting, while they are at the level of nirvana.
Several wines were issued and Dante Mancini finally got a Cheval Blanc at $100,000. Ajeng immediately imagined six-figure bonus is equated with a drink that sips once.
Jeez Jeng, your mindset is changed, this is not Solo ya Jeng. Ajeng leaned his back on the back of the chair feeling tired hearing how the elites could spend money so easily.
"Why are you Jeng?" whisky Bayu.
"I'm dizzy sir. Just this time I joined the auction and they did not seem to love the money." Ajeng replied as it is.
"Welcome to our world Jeng."
Ajeng just stared at the melas to Bayu. "Sir, I don't seem to fit in here... Not fit in with your neighborhood..."
Bayu was surprised by Ajeng's statement. "Slow Jeng... You'll get used to it."
Ajeng shook his head. "I want to go home sir, my head is dizzy."
Bayu looked at his girl who looked unwell. The man then gave the code to Radeva if he went home first. Lucky it was an auction break.
"Where are you going?" tanya Dante saw Bayu holding Ajeng's hand walking out of the ballroom.
"Take Ajeng home..."
"Sorry, first day Ms. Leia, Mr. Dante" Ajeng smiled.
"Oh deserved. Dah's all right. The first day was indeed uncomfortable" Leia's smile understood.
"We go home first." Bayu nodded to all his family and colleagues.
"Be careful" said Antonio and Alexis.
Bayu and Ajeng get out of the ballroom after taking their coat which is entrusted and then immediately escorted Hunter and Doogie to the parking area.
"Cocon't you go home? Is the auction done?" ask Hunter.
"Yet but Ajeng no longer feel good." Bayu hugged Ajeng who was already wearing his coat. The girl looked pale and Bayu was afraid if he suddenly fainted.
"Bring to Ajeng's apartment or Bay's apartment?" ask Doogie after getting in the car.
"My apartment. Ajeng apartment distance."
"The risk is borne by passengers in Bay. Me and Doogie didn't follow suit if Aunt Gandari knew you were taking Ajeng to your apartment" Hunter said.
"You see for yourself the face of this pale Ajeng? At least my apartment is close to Bee and Samuel's. If there's anything, get close!" sahut Bayu while leaning Ajeng's head to his shoulder.
"All right..." Doogie stater Range Rover owned by Bayu and they went to Bayu's apartment.

Bayu Apartment in Manhattan
Bayu held Ajeng who looked limp towards his apartment. Bayu does not know why suddenly his girl said things that are not-no and the impression that she felt unworthy to be in the high class.
Ajeng just resigned in the arms of Bayu because his head was very painful and felt everything spinning.
"Propay Jeng, we'll be there soon" Bayu said in the elevator with Hunter and Doogie.
"It looks like Ajeng is late to eat, so the stomach acid rises." Hunter also looked worried to see the Indonesian girl who had been considered like her own sister looked helpless. "Jeng, get healthy soon. I'd rather see you go bad to Bayu than get sick like this."
The sound of the elevator reached the floor of Bayu's apartment rang and Doogie immediately opened the door of Bayu's apartment and Bayu rushed Ajeng to his room which contained a spacious bed.
"Jeng, sorry but your Coat must be opened" said Bayu softly while opening the long Coat belonging to Ajeng who just resigned. Bayu also removed Ajeng's high heels and placed them under the bed. The man pulled out his blanket and enveloped Ajeng who shortly closed his eyes.
Bayu took off his suit and tie and opened two buttons on his shirt and rolled up his arms. He saw Ajeng sleeping and Bayu rubbed the girl's head and kissed her forehead. Slowly the man came out without shutting the door of his room.
"How's Ajeng?" ask Hunter who is preparing hot water for tea and coffee.
"Sleep."
"What is Bay? Just leaving was fine" asked Doogie confusedly.
"Say only got the first day." replied Bayu as it is.
Hunter and Doogie looked at each other. "Want to..."
"I'm calling Bee to check on Ajeng." Bayu also called his cousin. "Wa'alaikum salam mbak Bee. Where's mama?"

Room Bayu O'Grady
Ajeng blinked his eyes and saw a beautiful woman with a judes face and had gray eyes was staring at him intensely. Ajeng sees himself infused and makes her confused. How did I get infused?
"Hello. I'm Blaze Bianchi, Bayu's brother. How are you doing?" greet the canti woman.
"Blah..ze Bian..chi? Friend.doctor Victoria...Black?" ask slowly.
"Yup. You don't faint often Jeng?" asked Blaze without a stale ado.
Ajeng shook his head.
"What time did you last eat?"
"Lunch time..."
"You haven't eaten yet, have you? What were you drinking at the auction?" lick Blaze.
"Sparkling water..."
"Eat something there ?"
Ajeng. "Funny talk."
"Yup. That's what makes you ride his stomach acid. Here I give you the infusion so that your body is right again. I put the medicine in the infusion." Blaze looked at Ajeng seriously. "Are you really the first day?"
The wedge is silent.
"Jeng, you're not in the period, I've checked. I'm sorry but I have to check you out thoroughly. So, other than your stomach acid rising because of an empty stomach, I think something triggered Jeng. I'm a doctor Jeng, memorize why someone experiences something like you. Because someone triggered it."
He stared at the blanket that covered him.
"Is Bayu? She's what you are?"
The teacher looked surprised. "No. not Bayu sir." he said immediately.
"Then? What's Jeng?"
Ajeng breathed repeatedly. "I myself who triggered experiencing acid reflux..."
Blaze was getting confused. Fix this girl must be too over-thinking but what?
