Tarjo and Harvey arrive at a two-story building that reads 'eRHa Cosmetics'. Tarjo looked at the building for a moment.
Tarjo still does not understand why Rizka asked him to come to this place.
"Harv, what is this place?" tanyakanya.
"Well, don't you know? This is Miss Rizka's brand. I told you that at the time."
Tarjo is only mangosteen. "Yes let's go in!"
Upon entering the room, they were greeted by female employees in a friendly manner. Tarjo expressed the intention of his arrival and was immediately asked to go up to the second floor.
Although he was confused, but Tarjo only followed the steps of the female employee.
"This is Miss Rizka's room, please come in!"
The employee knocked on the door and opened the door for the two of them.
"Eh, Mas Tarjo? Already come?" Rizka sparkles happily. He approached Tarjo and Harvey.
"What did Miss Rizka ask us to come here for?" ask Tarjo not to be stale.
"Come with me!" take Rizka also not stale.
Actually he was lazy to meet with Tarjo, but how else? This is the only way to get Nathan's attention.
Rizka heads to a storefront on the first floor full of her brand's perfume collection. Tarjo and Harvey growl upset because it feels like Rizka is just mocking them.
If they returned to the first floor, why ask them to go up to the second floor? That was the heart of Tarjo who was upset.
"Mas Tarjo.." call Rizka sensual.
"This is my own brand's perfume. Ye know? I made it instantly by mixing several masculine scents into one. Please give this to Mr. Nathan!" Rizka hands over a box of perfume that she accidentally prepared for Nathan.
"Well, thank you, Miss Rizka. So, Miss Rizka invited us here just to show you this?" sarkas Tarjo's.
"No! It's not. I just want to give a gift to my business partner. I used to do it" Rizka said.
"Then what about me and Harvey's assistant? Aren't we also your partner, Miss Rizka? Why we were not given a gift. Miss Rizka herself knew that currently Mr. Nathan was unable to attend, so Miss Rizka should just give us her gift. All this time we've also been working hard to get this project going well and smoothly, so...."
"Stop!" Rizka pressed her index finger against Tarjo's lips
"All right! I have a gift for you too. Okay?" Rizka begins to get upset but chooses two bestseller men's perfumes in her shop.
"This is for Mas Tarjo and this is for Harvey."
"Thank you, Miss," Harvey replied.
"Oh yeah, since when did Miss Rizka open a branch here?" ask Tarjo.
"Oh, branch here? It's been a while. But I rarely come here. I'm just monitoring my employees."
Tarjo. He looked at the collection of cosmetic brands owned by Rizka.
"I think this girl's brain is empty, but she's great too." Unknowingly Tarjo praised Rizka inwardly.
"Oh yeah, why didn't Miss Rizka give you a present for Mr Nathan's wife?" ask Tarjo.
"Huh?! Nathan's wife?"
"Yes, shouldn't Miss Rizka also consider that. Who knows it could make Miss Rizka's brand more famous because Miss Rizka is a lot of charity."
Rizka smiled wryly. "Pretesting said? Did I have to give an expensive gift to my girlfriend? But I'd be embarrassed if I didn't give Nathan's wife a gift too!" batin Rizka fights with her ego.
"All right! I'll get the best for Nathan's wife.
Rizka chooses a woman's perfume and hands it to Tarjo.
"Oh yeah, by the way who is Nathan's wife? Why isn't it spreading abroad?" ask Rizka to investigate.
"Oh, Mr. Nathan's wife is definitely a woman, Miss Rizka!" tarjo answered while grinning the horse.
"Gee! I don't mean it, Mas Tarjo. Is he from the top or bottom? Oops, I mean..."
"Lord Nathan's wife is a good woman and she's not an itchy woman who likes to tease married men!" ketus Tarjo's.
"Ah Mas Tarjo don't get mad so dong!" Rizka rubs Tarjo's arm.
"So, today Miss Rizka has no agenda for our work?"
Rizka shakes.
"All right! Then me and Assistant Harvey resigned. Thanks for the gift!" tarjo then coded Harvey to get out of there.
"May you like it, Nate.." muttered Rizka.
Soon his phone was shaking. A message from his father. Rizka's father, Rio Hanggawan, sent a message if he wants to have dinner with his daughter.
Rizka let out a rough sigh. For a long time he had not met his busy father.
"Hopefully the old man doesn't want anything from me!" inner Rizka.

Tonight, Rizka meets her father in a private room of a fancy restaurant. Rio welcomed Rizka's arrival with joy.
"Papa's son! How you doing, son? Do you like Jakarta?" ask Rio.
"Yes, good!" answer Rizka flat.
Two men also entered the private room. Rizka scrunched her forehead.
"Master Rio!" greet the middle-aged man who seemed to be the same age as Rio.
"Mr Jo! How are you doing? Welcome to Indonesia!" reply Rio.
"yeah. I like Indonesia. After all, Damian's mother is also Indonesian" said a foreigner named Jonathan Ford.
"Let's sit down!" said Rio.
"This .. must be Damian, right?" continued Rio.
"Yes, Om. My name is Damian" replied the young man who was Jonathan's son.
"Oh yeah, meet my only daughter, her name is Rizka. Honey, say hello to Jo and Damian!" titah Rio's.
Rizka smiled wryly and then greeted the two men of different generations. After that the dinner took place with a crisp laugh from the fathers. But their children just smiled bitterly.

"So, Papa wants to sell me?" circus Rizka when they arrived at Rio's house.
"Don't talk nonsense!" furious Rio.
"Then what does it mean that Papa betrothed me to Damian? I don't even know him!" rizka's reply.
"You know the Ford Company is a European company! Our business will be further advanced if you marry Damian!"
Rizka nodded in disbelief.
"Papa never cared about me! Papa only cares about Papa's business! But once Papa sold me to the Ford family!" lantang Rizka's.
THE PLAQUE!
One slap landed on Rizka's cheek. The girl stared intently at her father while holding his hot cheek.
"According to Papa's orders and you'll live a good life! You are rich and powerful. There is no need for love to start a marriage. Understand, Son!" Rio's voice started to soften.
"I want to go home to Radit's sister!"
Rio sighed.
"All right! Do what you want before your engagement! But never refuse what Papa's will has become. Understood?!"
Rizka nodded. Then he came out of the house that was never like home to him. Since her mother died, Rizka never again felt the affection of her father. Rio was only thinking about his business. He only came when he wanted something from Rizka, just like this time.
Rizka drives her car with tears in her eyes. He did not expect that his father would sell himself to a wealthy family. Yeah, Rizka called it that because to her it was the same. Wedding business. That's how people call it.
