"President." Secretary Yuna walked in with her panicked face.
Ray took off his work glasses, and looked at the secretary Yuna in surprise.
"What's wrong with you?" Ask Ray.
"Chairman Sam's coming." Secretary of Yuna.
"Suddenly?"
Secretary Yuna nodded, Ray stood up from his seat, he tidied up his clothes and tie.
"Follow me."
"Good president."
Ray stepped in with a very strong leader aura, followed by Yuna's secretary who walked firmly and professionally, they looked like actors and actresses who were demonstrating the style of a leader and secretary, who was, it's so amazing to see.
Ray exits the executive elevator and walks into the main lobby.
He bowed and smiled kindly at the Chairman of the Commissioners who was actually his paternal uncle, uncle Samuel Gavin, he was the younger brother of his late father.
"How are you, chief Sam." Sapa Ray was friendly as he extended his hand to take the chairmanship of Sam.
The middle-aged man smiled back at his nephew.
"My news is fine and it's getting older, as you can see, president director Raymond." Said Chairman Sam in his formality style.
The two also laughed in response to the way they always greet like that when in front of the crowd. They must look professional as two people who have high positions in the company.
"Uncle!" Someone from behind the crowd called chairman Sam very casually and familiarly.
All eyes were fixed on the voice of it— Alex, the man smiled broadly towards chairman Sam.
"Alex, you should know the place, don't call him that if he's in the company." Ray.
"That's it, no problem, more importantly now, I need a place to sit down and talk to you two." Said chairman Sam.
Ray frowned at Alex, while Alex just shrugged his shoulders, he also did not know why their uncle wanted to meet and talk with the two of them.
"Ah yes, please chairman Sam."
Ray glanced at Yuna's secretary to open the elevator door.
They run in order like a corporate structure, Sam's chairman is in front, Ray and Alex are on the right and left side of his uncle, then behind them are secretaries or personal assistants.
"You can wait outside, we'll only speak six eyes." Said chairman Sam.
The secretaries and personal assistants nodded and bowed until the door of the chief executive officer's room was closed.
Chairman Sam sat on the guest sofa in the room, followed by Ray and Alex who were also seated.
"How are you guys?" Uncle Sam asked, when he was only with the two of them, then he was no longer a chief commissioner but an uncle.
"I'm always nice and always miss you uncle." Said Alex.
Uncle Sam smiled, though,
"What about you, Ray?"
"If uncle asks me how I am, I'm fine. If uncle asks the state of the company, then my answer is quite good." Ray.
Uncle Sam laughed at Ray's reply, his nephew was very similar to his brother, Ray's father.
"A few months ago, I heard that your company project got a hitch, is that true?"
"Right, but after that we've found the solution, it's just that it's still in the process, so the company's condition is still not stable."
Uncle Sam smiled again,
"A few months have passed, hasn't it been long enough, why haven't you made it stable yet?" Ask, the atmosphere now for Ray is like being interviewed by HRD.
"Sorry chairman, I will do my best, I make sure the company's condition is not only stable but also improved." Ray said, he spoke in formal language again.
"Ray, you have to remember, even though Alex now you only give me a position as a manager, but he also has shares that I still hold. If you fail, I'm forced to give Alex's shares back to him, which means your position's— will definitely be threatened, especially if many members of the board support Alex."
"Uncle doesn't have to do that. I believe, Brother Ray can definitely handle this quickly. Even if my uncle gives me the shares back, I'll give them to Ray's brother. Because he's the most deserving in this position." Alex said as he looked at his brother and smiled.
"Then uncle just give Alex's shares back. That way, we can compete fairly." Said Ray.
"You sure?" Ask uncle Sam.
Ray nodded, though,
"I'm sure of what I said."
"No, I don't want to compete with you. Uncle, don't listen to him."
"Alex— it's time you got up from your seat, you can't stay forever, you have to stand straight and face everyone, you have to be confident. Because you're Morgan's son, our father." Said Ray.
Alex and Uncle Sam are flabbergasted by Ray's words that sound wise, since when the man who used to hate Alex desperately, now with an adult attitude open his heart and say 'our father' it was as if he was clarifying the brotherly relationship between himself and Alex.
But then, Alex releases her hug on Ray and checks her brother's entire body.
"Are you seriously ill?" Alex asked with his worried face.
Ray clinched Alex's head, making his sister complain of pain.
"You wish I was sick and dying ya."
"Isn't that so, just why did your attitude suddenly change like this?"
Ray smiled in response,
All because of butterfly effect of someone — Inner Ray.
"Alright, uncle will return Alex's shares, then you can compete fairly. Then uncle left, there are still other matters that uncle must take care of. You don't have to drive your uncles around, sit down and treat each other." Uncle Sam said, he got up from his seat and walked out of the room.
The middle-aged man wanted to make room for the two brothers who ended up trying to mend their relationship.
Ray and Alex are now just the two in the room,
"Sister." Call Alex.
"Hm."
"Are you serious? Do you consider me your sister now?"
"Hm."
"Hm. Hm what? Brother, let's say." Whining Alex.
Ah my goodness, so this is how it feels to have a sister, how can Ana feel at home to have two sisters. Very fussy once. — Inner Ray.
"Yes, we are brothers." Ray said, he still feels awkward and prestige to say casually to Alex.
"Say, what's the reason you've changed like this?"
"Nothing, just a flapping effect of butterfly wings."
"Butterfly effect mean sister?"
"Hm."
"Who?" Ask Alex again.
"What?"
"Who gave the butterfly wings."
"Ana." Answer Ray.
"Ana's? Well, she's an amazing girl. I'll meet him later and treat him to a meal. Because of him, you now want to consider me a brother."
Alex is back with Ray. Actually Ray was very uncomfortable with Alex's attitude, but for the sake of turning into a better brother again, he suddenly patted Alex on the shoulder, because Ray thought, because Ray thought, maybe that's how to be kind to a sister.
"But don't get too close to her." Said Ray.
"Well, I won't make you jealous."
Ray pushes Alex's body away,
"Whoever is jealous, me and him are just friends, he promises to be my close friends."
"Friends? Are you a child? But brother, man and woman are close friends, will eventually fall in love." Said Alex.
"really?"
Alex nodded in spirit,
"Yes, have you felt the vibration? Like your heart's pounding." Said Alex while showing a heart palpitations.
"If it's like that, you can't get close to him and can't be friends with him."
Alex stopped showing heart palpitations and looked at Ray pouting.
"But we'll just be friends."
"You say it, if a man and a woman are friends, they will eventually fall in love with each other. So you can't be friends with him."
Ray stood up from the sofa and walked towards his desk.
"But brother, that's not what I meant."
"If your words are true, then no man should befriend him, only I am his friend. Already, go there." Ray.
Alex bent his face, though,
"You're in love with Ana, aren't you? It's so childish." Alex muttered, he was forced to step away from Ray's room.
Seeing Alex coming out of the room, Ray smiled broadly, not knowing what made him so happy.
