The Childish And The Beast
#35 Theory and Facts
The coffers of money are not plucked from trees, people say. But Nanda got it just by picking from a tree.
“Still den. Here, make auxiliary medicine Ummi.”
Nanda smiled sweetly after coming down from the neighboring mango tree. Bring down some ripe mangoes, “Still, mbah~ Mbah ih, more beautiful~!”
The pleasantries and friendliness of the two who smile back at each other. The sunny afternoon started to get cold. Maybe it's time to end the day.
He just didn't know if there were any guests.
“Ramli~ There is your friend nih,” ummi found plastic with mango held by her son, “Sini let ummi take.”
Nanda chuckled while sitting under the floor accompanying the boss, “Why?” self-smile, “Kangen?”
This woman looked at the man. He thinks Nanda is a person who easily smiles even though the situation is reversed. He was told to go home this afternoon.
“I want to apologize.”
Nanda tilted her head, “Why?”
“I hold where you work. But I also can't manage my own company. You're the one who got the impact.”
Raised one eyebrow Nanda. Adira understood he had to speak more clearly.
“It's about mr. Danwar.”
The expression is gone. Not a single word came out of Nanda's mouth preferring to use her ears.
“He is the senior I have received from the beginning of Pancarona. He believes that me and Pancarona can stand superior. His knowledge became a big supporter.”
“Terus?”
“I know he likes arbitrarily. His attitude is unacceptable, but..”.
Adira is getting more and more wrapped up in a dilemma. He realized, he was too proud. With just a few accomplishments he felt he could stand on even one leg. But this is still the beginning. In a sense, more and more shocks would befall that foothold.
Competitive, human ego, matter, all sorts of it does not escape in the attempt to destroy Pancarona. Many will throw a circle of targets in the form of this newly mature company.
Knowing that, does Adira take the risk of reducing a positive workforce? Even if it's Danwar?
“Terus, miss Dira want to save her?!”
Adira also knows, this cannot be allowed. The choice, all employees or the Danwar himself.
Ha ha, would it not be greedy if Adira chose to set both?
“I won't pull my words. If Dira wants to fire me, please. But he should be fired too!”
This woman breathes, “Not that simple.”
“Dir, you know he's the one to the other. It makes you difficult.”
“Listen. More than half of the designs sold from Pancarona were Danwar evaluations. If I fire just like that, that means half of Pancarona's income should I delete.”
“What's the difference if he also corruption funds Panca?”
Adira speechless, “Corruption?”
“He took people's salaries, projects cut, recently there was also Taruna taken as well! Want to be didiamin continue?!”
“Wait!” adira's eyes are wide open, “You heard that from where?”
Nanda held back her emotions, “The kids are already on that talk. Dira don't know⏤”
“No, don't know. They only reported unilateral pay cuts from Danwar.”
If the problem is that big, Danwar is not worth defending. Embezzlement in the Taruna fund? How could it all happen behind Adira?
No. gabe. Previously there was David and there was also sabotage that happened easily in Pancarona.
This woman is really that jam, isn't she?
This, unlike Adira's firm temper. This time he was angry. All this time he was too gentle on the subordinate children especially the senior ones.
He had to take a firm step this time. For every person who extended his finger beyond the boundary line.
Exit her cell phone and type a message for her secretary.
Lawyer⏤which is part of the family of Daffa⏤must be able to drop not only Danwar. But also concerned. Their conversation is still very long. Just like the sweeping inside and outside of Pancarona from the beginning.
Pancarona must be clean!
“I hope you can be more transparent about news like this. Anything you hear, and from where.”
“As you choose love?”
Adira looked at Nanda. There was so much going on behind the curtain. Though Pancarona is a small and young architectural firm.
Right enough. Too young to understand everything.
“Iya, including that. Anything else?”
“No.”
Silence Adira heard it. What makes Nanda so passive like this, what?
Adira keep her phone away, “I can help you grab your rights again.”
“I don't want to talk anymore,” Nanda replied again, “Everything always talks bad about Dira.”
An annoyed face like a child snatched up his sweet food, the imitation was not what affected Adira. Confused about how much this guy would care about him. Made him mute.
There are more important things. Unbeknownst to Nanda, Adira turns on the voice recorder from her phone.
He knew, he needed various materials that could bring Pancarona safely from the internal damage. That is to repel fleas with a path that can not be denied.
Dira continued it again, “Is there anything else? Especially about Danwar?”
Nanda is not excited, but he really thinks to help, “There is news that Danwar is working for someone else.”
“Who?”
“Nobody knows. The problem is many say that he is kayaking. That's so. Some say he also wants to control Panca himself.”
“You ever heard of anything that could be proof?”
“Ti... dak...,” Nanda realized that his conversation with his friends in Panca was just gossip.
Dira also understood it, “Means only theory huh?”
“Dira don't believe?”
“If I file your statement to blame Danwar in court, you can be prosecuted in defamation.”
Nanda rolled her eyes, “That means Dira doesn't want me to be blamed?”
“Should be fair.”
This man smiled, “I know Dira who is in front of me, the same person speaking, it's far different,” murmur fast it again not answered Adira, “But I have no problem to blame, I have no problem, if you make help you.”
Adira realized one thing. Why does this man feel different. It was probably because this man intended to do a lot for Dira, surpassing his entire family.
It feels really weird.
“That should not happen,” Adira managed to continue the conversation, “What else is there?”
“Well, I'm not the one who gossips a lot anyway. Maybe I can dig up more if you want.”
Adira turns off her voice recorder, “No problem. This is enough. You don't have to do what you don't want.”
“I want, origin...”.
Begin Nanda's agitation that bothers him. Nanda likes to tease her boss in any way and at any time available. This time he pulled out his phone, taking out the chat he sent to Dira.
“What is it?” Adira watched his writing.
Sad face out again from Nanda, “Unblock I dong~”
With that one dreadful sentence alone, Dira knew what it meant.
Honestly, he did not remember giving his number to Nanda. Therefore he felt the need to block the annoying number. When he found out it was Nanda's number and knew the sentence he sent....
“This I~” Nanda trying to remind.
“I know.”
“Loh? Deliberately blocked dong?”
Let's assume the lie is true. Adira was just thankful she didn't get that kind of fight again on her phone.
“Already?”
Nanda laughed sweetly. Running out of words to answer. This woman is hard to tell.
“Then just say goodbye,” Adira tidied up the luggage, “Please help him again in the future.”
That laugh was unstoppable. This woman is hard to conquer. But that's what makes it interesting.
“No dinner here~?”
“Deadline.”
“Huuu~” sad face it tucked smile.
“I'm sorry,” a lot he has to think about starting from tonight. He chose to stand.
Ummi comes with mango pieces, “Loh, want to go home?”
“Sorry, aunt. I still have work.”
Their conversations are not much intertwined. A brief greeting and goodbye this woman chanted. He finally left the house.
“Dira.”
Adira stopped after her shoes were placed.
Nanda's gaze was firm as his smile vanished. As if to talk seriously, “Try, open your heart a little. So you know which ones are friends, which ones are not.”
This woman silently digested what she said.
But Nanda returned her smile, “You want me to give you?”
“No. My driver is in front,” Adira is leaving, “Sore, aunt.”
The sure steps that already know that path do not stop. Not like his obstructed mind.
Again, this guy again. That sentence was unexpected coming out of his mouth. The assumption that does not arrive, that all is fact.
Adira opened her phone. Unblocking at Nanda contact.
