My Dad's a CEO
Chapter 2: The Beginning of Everything

“Alvaro?” lirih Flora was surprised.

Flora's head felt a little dizzy and her vision was like a blur. He blinked his eyes to make sure that the man who entered his room was really Alvaro, his high school friend who was very annoying and liked to say ugly because of fat.

“Alvaro! Help me!” his yell.

The man still staggered closer to the bed. “Hm, why are you bound here?” tanyakanya.

“Help me to release this!” pinta Flora's. He put aside his hatred and resentment towards the man.

Alvaro according. He released one by one the ties that wrapped around Flora's feet and hands. His body was instantly unsteady as if he had no more energy.

“Alvaro, you why?” flora asked as she held onto her wrist which was still in pain. Alvaro did not move. He tried to shake his body.

“Alvaro, you why?” ask again.

The man pulled Flora's hand and overpowered her. His face was like that of a man who was heavily drunk.

“Alvaro, let me go! What the hell!” pinta Flora is upset. Alvaro held both his hands.

“I've helped you. This time, help me! My body is so hot,” Alvaro marancau is unclear.

***

Tin! Tin!

The sound of the horn shocked Flora as she walked. He almost got hit.

“Hah, why am I even thinking about that again? You idiot! Stupid fool!” Flora beat her head.

Ever since finding out her son has a serious illness, Flora keeps thinking about Alvaro, Gavin's real father. Six years ago the man who had impregnated her while drunk. He finally decided to return to his homeland to find the man. He hopes Alvaro will have a bone marrow match with his son.

Today will be Flora's first day at work. He still has to make money to meet the needs and costs of treating Gavin. Luckily he had a friend who could put him in a big company to fill the position of secretary.

“Good morning, can I help you?” ask the receptionist kindly.

“I want to meet with Mr. Rendi from HRD. My name is Flora Abraham, yesterday I made an appointment with her.” Answer Flora.

“Well, I will confirm first,” said the receptionist while contacting someone via phone.

Flora was still standing there waiting. Occasionally his eyes looked around and then the employee who started to arrive. The office has a lot of employees.

“Mother Flora,” call the receptionist.

“Iya?”

“Please go up to the fourth floor to the left-most room. In the director's room. Mr. Rendi is already waiting for you there,” said the secretary.

“Oh, yes, thank you,” said Flora.

Flora switched from the lobby area to the elevator. He pushed down the number four while waiting for the elevator to open. He got into the elevator with several other employees. They were seen looking at the clothes that Flora was wearing with a strange look. Flora also noticed her own appearance fearing something was wrong. According to him, his appearance was quite neat. However, employees who noticed her were like smiling themselves.

When the elevator opened, he rushed out. Look for the room mentioned by the receptionist. He finally found it.

“Excuse me, Sir,” greet Flora.

“Oh, you are Flora, yes?” a middle-aged man was seen walking towards Flora. “Please sit down first!”

“Thank you, Sir.” Flora followed Rendi to sit on the sofa in the room.

“My wife has told me a little bit about you. He said you used to be one of his smart students,” praise Mr. Rendi.

Flora blushed in shame. Indeed, the person who recommended him to enter the company recited his lecturer first while in college. Her name is Ms. Retno, Mr. Rendi's wife.

“Ah, yes, Sir. I have prepared everything.” Flora took out a wide brown ampoule from inside her bag and gave it to Pak Rendi.

“Hm, you also have experience working abroad, yes. Very good, especially if supported by good English skills. Most of the clients of this company are foreigners. You are very suitable in this position.”

Flora smiled widely. He really hopes to get that job. “So, I'm welcome to work here, Sir?” ask with enthusiasm.

“Iya, congratulations yes, Flora. You are welcome to work here.”

Mr. Rendi reached out his hand which was greeted by a handshake by Flora.

“Say a new secretary wants to come today?”

Sound from the door. Flora's smile instantly disappeared realizing the arrival of a person she would never forget in a lifetime.

His name is Alvaro, CEO of the company where Flora now works. His stature is tall and well-built and has a beautiful face. However, behind the physical perfection possessed, he had a firm and slightly arrogant nature.

The charisma that was emitted seemed to be able to make everyone obey him.

To Flora, Alvaro is nothing more than a bully. His High School days became dark because of Alvaro. He did not expect that the annoying man would be his superior.

“Good morning, Mr. Alvero. I've got a private secretary for you,” said Mr. Rendi.

Alvero scrunched his forehead. “So he's a new secretary candidate? Looks village. I'm not sure he can work well,” he said very lightly.

Flora feels gritted. If only he wasn't the boss there, he might have grabbed his hair and scratched his face.

“Please read the bio first, sir. He's my wife's former student. He is very smart and can speak English with lancer.” Mr. Rendi handed Flora's biodata to Alvero.

“Alright, let me interview myself. Please Mr. Rendi can go back to the room,” Alvero said.

“Good, Sir.”

Alvero looked haughty looking at Flora. From the appearance is not at all interesting to be used as a secretary who must deal directly with clients.

“You sure you want to apply as a secretary here? Kok is more suitable to be a janitor like him,” said Alvero.

Flora sighed trying to be patient. He tries to shift his attention elsewhere.

On the wall of the room is clearly a family photo. There is a picture of Alvero with a boy and a woman who is not familiar to him. Prilly Anastasia is a famous artist. They both auditioned to sing. Had Flora not fled abroad because she was pregnant, she would have also become a successful artist like Prilly.

He did not expect that Alvero was married and had children. Even the child in the photo looks the same age as his son. His heart suddenly ached, should be a photo of his son plastered there. Davin was also Alvero's son even though the man didn't know it.

“Your name is Flora Abraham? From Panca Bhakti High School? Graduation of 20XX? Just be true …. “ Alvero looks back and forth to check the biodata that Flora gave. “You ... the once fat and geeky flora wearing those glasses, huh?” tanyanya.

Flora already felt an unpleasant premonition. Moreover, Alvero continued to look at him while smiling mockingly. To him, the man was still the same as before: annoying!

“Wow, you are Flora ... now you are skinny, yes! I didn't recognize it. But, your fashion sense is still as bad as it used to be.”

“Sorry, Sir. I am here to apply for a job as a secretary, not want to be an artist or model,” said Flora. He's not kidding.

Alvero just smiled. “Hahaha .. Your sense of humor is bad.”

“Unfortunately you are looking for a comedian?” Flora again chimed in on Alvero's words. He is now more courageous and more confident.

Alvero is quite interested in the woman he used to bully. “You have chosen to work here, so you have to follow the rules. As a secretary, you must look neat and beautiful because at any time there can be meetings with clients. You can't look ugly. For today I will understand.

So, tomorrow, come up with an unnerving appearance like this,” pinta Alvero.

Flora wanted to shout out in protest on her first day of work. Just the first day his boss was already so annoying.
