TRAPPED IN THE PAST STORY
CHAPTER 35. DETERIORATED

From behind the window the breath that was exhaled Joshka looked heavy when he saw his son's back. He started walking towards the balcony and approached Daniel.

"Hi, hotshot Dady!" joshka's greeting to her son.

"Dady!" daniel was shocked to see Dady coming. "Why didn't Dady tell me if it was coming?" tanyanya returned hugging.

"Dady wants to surprise you. Dady misses you." she said casually while sitting on the chair that was there.

"Just miss it or something else?" ask Daniel full of questions.

"Yes, missing a child and a wife is commonplace." replied Joshka lightly.

"I'm not sure I just miss. Did Johan ask Dady here?" ask Daniel again who still does not believe Joshka's words.

Suddenly a voice greeted the two of them, "Dad, how are you? he must have suspected me because I told him." said Johan to the two.

"Well, how are you? she suspects you." retorted Joshka who pretended to answer Johan's question.

"Well, he always suspected me, dad. I want to meet the apartment buyer first." said Johan as he passed.

Hearing the words Johan will meet the apartment buyer Joshka wonder who and who because of his knowledge Johan lived with Daniel in this apartment and lived next door to the official house.

"The apartment buyer, what did Johan buy and now will sell? Or do you want to sell this apartment?" joshka asked disappointedly because she did not expect her son to sell the apartment without her knowledge.

"No." Daniel replied briefly.

"Then, which apartment?" joshka began to suspect.

The question was not answered by Daniel. He did not want to tell about the heartbreak he was feeling including about the apartment he had bought for Asia. Because all he knows is his dady will be angry if Daniel spends the excess money for a lover especially now they have broken up.

"Why silence? is there something you're hiding?" fishing rod Joshka.

"No dad" Johan said, lying.

They talk to each other, but there is something unusual about the way Daniel replied to all Joshka's words, his face that still looks gloomy makes Joshka as a parent sad to see the state of his son.

"Son, what if this winter we're on vacation, take a day off and take your girlfriend."

joshka fishing rod hopes her son can be honest and tell her stories.

Daniel was surprised when his dady said, he wanted to get tight by trying to get out of his seat but his shoulder was held by Joshka instantly.

"You why? Dady feels a heavy burden you feel. Tell me, son, if you still think of me as a parent. If you do love her I'll try to convince mommy of your choice." lured Joshka.

Daniel nodded and said, "sorry I dad, I have disappointed you, I have become an ungodly child for never listening to your words. I want to take care of the dady company in Indonesia, is it okay?" ask Daniel.

Joshka who heard that was astonished, which she knew her son was not too interested in the business world. "Hem ..., no. It's a company that dady built from a young age. Dady, start from zero to have many branches abroad. If you want to do business then you have to learn from scratch, as parents dady only teach and monitor. How do you agree?"

"She dad, I want to be like dady."

"No, you can't be like me but you have to be more than me. Dady, I'm gonna ask you to take care of our little branch starting with your status as a regular employee. Do you want to?"

Daniel nodded at Joshka's statement.

\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=\=

After his conversation with Daniel, Joshka immediately asks someone to prepare for Daniel and Johan's departure to Korea. His departure seems sudden but that's what he really wants, because he doesn't want to be here and remember the betrayal of the love he's been through.

Daniel left without Melly's knowledge, because he could not bear to remember all the mistakes and pain that Melly felt because he was at that time preferred a lover rather than his parents. Daniel decided to meet Melly later if he was not fragile and able to stand upright.

While Johan, must have said goodbye to the two adoptive parents so that Melly actually knows where the two children will live.

A few months later

"Dad, you're totally outrageous. Why give our children a position as an Office boy, at least a position as an ordinary employee, it can." said Melly while angry.

"Office boy is also an ordinary employee, baby." said Joshka lightly while sipping coffee.

"Dad, I'm not kidding. I seriously. I'm a doctor, you're a famous businessman after all he used to be a diplomat why now make it an office boy. So also with Johan why do you make him as a driver of the manager there. Even you hide the status that they are the son of the owner of the company.

"Dear, believe me I'm teaching our two children a process of life. No one has made it to the top without hard work, being an OB or driver will not make it straight to the top but will bring it closer to the goal they want to achieve." joshka told his wife, Melly.

"But are they both happy with their situation? you don't even give him pocket money and facilities, they just live in a mess office." asked Melly who still does not accept the state of his son.

"My dear Melly. Did you forget, I couldn't possibly give them fancy facilities. They've both been people from birth and I want them to know how to achieve success from below, from being a common stone to being a gemstone. Remember yes baby, actually the secret of happiness there are three things that are; be patient, grateful and sincere."

"Darling, why are you so awesome. I'm lucky to have you be my husband."

"Well, when are we going to see Mr. Idris and his wife?" asked Melly with a happy expression.

"My dear Melly, if you are chatty like this it means you are happy, and if you are silent it means you are in trouble" Joshka said, pinching his wife's cheek with anxiety. "You want to talk about that matchmaking, right? I agree but what about our son, who married Daniel dear, not us as parents."

"Dad, don't brainwash me this time. We've been talking about this for a long time. Mr. Idris and his wife also agree, after all the girl deserves Daniel. I gave birth to Daniel so I want what's best for Daniel and I'm sure Acha is the one."

"Dady knows, the mother who gave birth but dady also plays an important role because it has made the mother pregnant" said Joshka while chuckling.

"Yes, but I'm the one with it."

"Because mami women, maybe if behind dady being a woman and mami being a man must be dady who is pregnant." murmured Joshka softly. "Dady does not refuse, but Dady asks better to ask Acha to graduate college while waiting for Daniel to pursue his career."

"I agreed to wait for Acha to graduate because she'll be graduating soon. If you have to wait for Daniel to pursue a career will be long." Melly whined to her husband.

"Trust me R-Joshka's offspring is smart, I make sure even Daniel and Johan 30 years old he will be known in the business world" said Joshka assured his wife.

Incheon City, South Korea, during the day.

A few weeks earlier,

Daniel and Johan have arrived at one of the largest airports in South Korea. Once there no one welcomed them, neither, no one picked them up. Now they look for a taxi and look for a mess address.

The two of them did not really master Korean, had difficulty lucky taxi drivers can speak English so fluently. So it does not take long now they are on the page mess.

Upon arrival at the mess they were greeted with the workers who first lived there. Some of them are Indonesian, it makes Daniel and Johan lucky because they can at least communicate easily.

For both of them to be in Korea just like before where they both went on business trips. But the difference is, usually they are always welcomed like a king while now the atmosphere is just ordinary they can both judge which employees have good behavior and not.

Much has Daniel learned to be an OB for several weeks. He had to leave earlier than office hours. The tasks he always does are basically cleaning and tidying up tables, chairs, computers; cleaning floors, providing drinks, retrieving documents.

"Huh ..." Daniel exhaled while sitting on the bench where the OB basecamps were gathered.

One of his friends who was also an OB came over, "what's it like to work so OB, fun isn't it?it feels good that we can serve the needs of the workers here."

"Yes" said Daniel, nodding.

It doesn't feel like they've been working here for a month, Daniel is busy with his job and Johan is too. They both have different activities. Johan is always on the road, while Daniel is always in the office so that makes the two rarely talk. They just talk to each other, joke and eat together if they are already in the mess.

A month has passed, and,

Kring .. kring ..kring (an alarm sound belonging to Daniel).

Kukuruyuk .. kukuruyuk. (an alarm sound belonging to Johan).

"Niel, your alarm is like a children's song. You shut it down!" ledek Johan who went into the room.

"Alarm you too, take care of me! I heard that voice the most. I think I've heard it's the sound and the reflex I'm slamming on the phone."

"Awas aja you slam my phone. I can't figure out why he could be so patient when twice you slam his phone. Are you not kangen the same he especially his lips that you ever fondle." seduced Johan.

"You don't have to be restless! my focus is career, not women. Move over!" daniel said while accidentally hitting Johan's body in the doorway of the room.

Hearing that Johan just smiled. As usual while waiting for Daniel finished bathing himself was in the room while fiddling with his phone to play games.

A few minutes later Daniel emerged from the doorway wearing a work suit.

"Niel, get a greeting from ajumma next to our mess." joked Johan.

"Greetings back." Daniel said briefly.

"Daniel, have your tastes changed?" tease Johan again.

"Your mouth, I've left first" he said as he passed.

As he was walking Daniel saw a girl whose face resembled that of someone he had known. With curiosity Daniel approached the girl then near her and ....
