Knock knock
A knock on the door startled Anna. She quickly wiped her tears with a tissue and returned to her sitting position."Come in!"Firman immediately opened the door and bowed his head in respect."Good morning, Mom. ""Good morning. What is the agenda I will do today?'“Today we have a meeting to welcome the new CEO, Mam. Furthermore, there is a meeting with clients at nine in the meeting room plus a review of the readiness of the restaurant project designed by Mr. Harry for you.""Mr. Harry designed a restaurant for me?"Firman nodded."God willing, the restaurant construction will be held on Sunday, so that you can attend the event.""Alhamdulillah. May Mr. Harry's dream come true soon."“Now you are waiting for employees in the meeting room. Come on Mam, I'll take you to the meeting room."Anna immediately stood up and Firman led her out of the room. They walked hand in hand towards the room which wasThe three employees were silent. they immediately listened to the welcome speech that was still in progress.“As a new person in this company, I certainly still have many shortcomings, so I humbly ask for input from all parties. Today I know, there are some of the best employees. Employees who completely dedicate themselves to this company. We have just been abandoned by the best president, a leader who we always look forward to for guidance, who has now left, we are sad, but I am sure, he does not want us to be dissolved in this sadness. let's continue his struggle, with a passionate spirit for the achievement of our shared vision and mission. It would not be wise if I conveyed it at length, then when I leave it to the presenter, I will end with thank you."Applause erupted in appreciation of Anna's speech. All employees are happy to have a wise leader, even if she is only a woman. at first, they looked down on Anna and thought that she had no abilities at all. The
Anna looked at the man who was now standing teasing her with sharp eyes. She had known the man since he was in elementary school. A strange man who always makes fun of her because his appearance is different from his peers."Is the President Director of the Gunawan company you?" Anna asked coldly. Gunawan laughed. With sparkling eyes, he met Anna's gaze and held out his hand for a handshake."Do you still know me? Could it be that you've been missing me, Anna?'Firman, who had been inflamed for a long time when he heard Gunawan's first greeting, now grew more emotional when Gunawan mentioned her superiors by only mentioning her name."Stop your silly behavior, Mr. Gunawan. Do you know who you are dealing with?"“Ha ha ha I know Mr. Firman very well. She is my innocent childhood friend. She's known me longer than you sir. I'm sure, without having any discussion, she will immediately agree to my proposal, isn't she?'"Unfortunately not, Mr. Gunawan.
"Go, Mr. Gunawan. I don't want violence in the office where I work." Firman looked at Gunawan who was still standing where he was. He regretted what had just happened. Regrets the nature of Gunawan who harasses Anna while he is applying for cooperation with his company“Heh, you're just a lowly geek who can only follow orders from superiors. I will do anything to repay your employer's treatment.” Gunawan immediately took his bag and stepped out of the Wijaya company meeting room with a groan. What does the heart mean to hug the mountain, what power the hand does not reach? That's the appropriate proverb for Gunawan. He could have thought that a female CEO could be easily knocked out, but in reality, he had to swallow bitter saliva because it turned out that his opponent was no longer his weak childhood friend.Anna immediately entered her room and walked towards the toilet. She took off her shoes and rolled up her sleeves, then took ablution. She immediately ca
The call to prayer echoed in the distance. Faint sounds could be heard from the high-rise building, on the top floor of Wijaya's company. She had just put her twins to bed in a special room and asked Nunung and Resti to prepare lunch for them. Anna immediately stepped into the bathroom and took ablution to establish noon prayer. After all, she took her cell phone and called Firman and Romi to have lunch together in her roomAn hour later, the food that Resti brought from home was ready. Anna invites Firman and Romi to eat together in her room.Anna had just finished eating when there was a knock on the door. Firman who was near the door immediately stepped in and opened the door. A handsome man was standing in front of them."Assalamualaikum'Wa alaikum salam, please come in Mr. Arjun. Come join us for lunch here."Firman immediately took the plate and handed it to Arjun. Arjun who felt awry just stroked his nose in embarrassment to find them eating together
"Uncle Arjun, Mommy. Uncle Arjun will be my teacher, right? That's why I just called Sensei. it's okay, right? Japanese people call their teacher sensei, Mommy."Arjun smiles hearing Anna's words. He had heard about Nana's strengths and intelligence when compared to other children her age."Yes, dear. But we are Indonesians, honey.""Oh, it's okay, Mommy. I like to call Sensei."“Ok, call me Sensei. I like Anna. Let Nana Call me Sensei. Beautiful call. How is Nana's condition now? Are you ready to learn?”"Nana is ready, Sensei, but Nana wants to go to the room first, see Adam and Amira. Excited to see cute babies like them." Nana ran to the room where her two siblings were still sleeping. She kissed one by one on the cheeks of her siblings."How are you dear? Sister Nana is home. Today I will learn about engineering, please pray for me to become a famous designer. I'll teach you guys tomorrow when you grow up."Adam and Amira squirmed
Nana's eyes lit up."Can I? I don't know the technique yet, Sensei. "Arjun approached Nana, then squatted in front of the smart girl. She tried to hold Nana's hand, but Nana immediately hid her hand."Uh sorry. You are a child who always keeps yourself pure, I forgot. You can't even shake hands with mine?"“Sorry Sensei, I want to be always, take care of myself. ""Good. I'm sorry, Nana. After all, I'm excited about you being smart. Remember, at home. Read the book I gave you, then try to draw the plan of Nana's dream school, OK?"“Sure, Sensei. At school, I had been reading, but finally got distracted because Ganjar teased me.”"Ganjar? Who is Ganjar?"" my naughty friend. "Nana then tells Arjun what happened today at school. Arjun listened to Nana's story and nodded his head."Maybe Ganjar likes you, that's why he always bothers Nana.""Not! Love is not a distraction. After all, who wants to be with Ganjar?
Returning to the Main house, on her first day of work, Anna looked very happy. she felt very homesick for the atmosphere she had just left the day before."Assalamualaikum""Waalaikum salam warahmatullahi wabarokatuh.""How was work today? Is it going well, honey?” Not the children Mrs. Wijaya, but her daughter-in-law who she had been waiting for her since noon. Mrs. Wijaya looked at Anna's tired face."Everything is going well Mom. There was a welcoming ceremony, a meeting and there was supposed to be a location survey that tomorrow Sunday a restaurant would be built but I canceled it.” Mrs. Wijaya looked at Anna's face that looked very lethargic. She knew that something had happened on her daughter-in-law's first day at work. she knows. Taking control of a company is not an easy thing. It takes precision and foresight from leaders who have just served as leaders."Why? Has anyone spoken to you sideways?'Anna shook her head. she did hear t
Dear My Lovely PinkI adopted this poem from the book by Ibn Hazm Al Andalusi entitled. Words of Love from Andalusia. You must have never read it, right? That's why I edited one for you.Read and don't cry when I'm not by your side."'True love is not the result of a momentary processNot because of coercionBut walk and bear fruit slowlySkip the long combination so that the stake is solidAfter a long journey, steady intention and determinationNot easy to shake the pole, not easy to fade the bondis reality, anything that grows fastNot long after it fell and disappearedWhile I am a barren landIt's not easy to grow plants in itBut once the plant can surviveIt is not easy for him to fall because the roots are firmly gripped." Time and again Anna read excerpts of her husband's poetry. her heart trembled, feeling a very strong longing. She wanted to scream Harry's name, but she held it in because she didn't want her parents to kn
