Feeling Stupid

Angrier. Feeling betrayed. Feeling stupid. That was what Baskara felt at this moment on her way back to the office.

His hands did not even stop clenching and accentuating his veins. His face was flushed red holding back the turbulent emotions within him.

He has been panting looking for cooperatives who want to work with him to save the company. No matter the heat and rain. Give up a lot of time that he should be able to use for other things, especially to gather with his family.

It turns out it was all just a test. Test to determine if he is worthy to be a CEO. It is worth leading a large company with dozens of subsidiaries and thousands of employees depending on its fate.

Oma did not follow the fog knowing his company was on the verge of destruction. Oma even casually went out of the country and handed everything to Baskara. It turns out Oma was behind all this. And foolishly he knew it now.

He thought Oma and Om Faraz were too outrageous.

Do I need to test it like that? do you need to risk the future of the company? risking the fate of thousands of employees. And do they not worry if he cannot solve the problem?

Opinion up there must be very furious to want to vomit blood if until yesterday he lost and make the company fall.

Luckily he has Andi who is quite competent in helping him. Opa gave it a good hand by giving Andi as his assistant.

"Set up my meeting with the President when he gets back. I want to know it clearly from his mouth directly."

Andi who could see the anger from Baskara's eyes only nodded obediently.

"Mr Faraz has a meeting with a client out of town and will be back the day after tomorrow, sir." Andi conveyed what he knew from Faraz's secretary.

"Take that day to meet."

He stared at his superiors through the rearview mirror above him. Where Baskara now rests his head and covers it with one arm.

"Do I look so stupid and unconvincing that they need to test like that?" Baskara asked Andi who sounded more like a mutter.

Regarding Baskara's formal style of speaking to him, in fact Andi had asked Baskara not to be too formal if they were not in working hours or just the two.

But Baskara refused because Andi was also reluctant to change his style of speech that respected Baskara as his superior. So did Baskara who respected him as an older person. Although not to mention 'you'.

"They just want you to learn well how the company is, sir. Because there is no better lesson than direct practice." entertain Andi with the answer he gave.

Baskara grieved at hearing that. "You talk like a motivator. Though you must also be upset after getting tired of going here and there at that."

Andi was speechless. Because basically he feels the same way as Baskara. He also disagreed with what Faraz and Oma were doing. The difference is that he can still hold back. And his pride is not as injured as his current boss.

His middle mood is not good impact up to home. He did not focus when he invited baby Anna to play, until the sound of baby Anna's shrill cry only awakened him.

Baskara approached frantically when she saw her daughter hit the table. There was a little blood flowing down her forehead which made her panic.

"Honey.. Sorry daddy." he said sorry with the carelessness he did.

Dusk, who was in his room on the second floor, also approached frantically to hear his daughter crying. Because baby Anna never cried that hard except for the case when left Baskara out of town a few days.

The company's problems made him stupid and not knowing what to do to help his daughter.

"ANA!" pekik Dusk once near the husband and see the condition of his daughter. "He's why!" he urged in panic.

"So-so, hit the table." muttered Baskara in a daze.

Dusk immediately took over baby Anna from her husband's arms. "Couldn't you? are you not taking care of it? I know Anna hasn't been on her way yet!"

"I.. I'm.." Baskara was confused as to what to answer. He feels guilty. He was equally worried about his wife. Orange and Farri also looked at him waiting for an answer that made Baskara feel desperate.

"It's been.. It's been.. Don't blame each other. Here let Nenna treat. The injury is not severe." between Tiara who immediately brought baby Anna to his study in the house.

Although panicked to see the condition of his grandson. But Tiara was already used to such a situation. Calm down parents who are worried about the condition of their daughter's son. Tiara had even been in a more emergency condition than at this point.

Dusk sighed and followed the mother. She had actually realized there was something her husband was thinking about since returning home from work this afternoon. Her husband is quieter and less focused when spoken to.

Although he initially understood when Baskara said there was nothing to worry about. But now he is still angry to see the condition of his daughter.

Her husband should be able to rule out work problems if he is with the family. What else if you are playing with baby Anna who still desperately needs supervision and care.

Different when you are with him. Although she can also be upset, if her husband does not want to share the story but brings problems into the house.

Baby Anna's injuries aren't severe. Only small scratches that do not need stitches. Only cleaning and treating it later will heal on its own.

"But later if Anna vomits or has a fever, tell mom. We're going straight to the hospital for a full check. I was afraid it was tight."

Both Tiara and Baskara nodded. The little girl had even now returned to wrestling spoiled to her father. Laughs cheerfully when Baskara kisses him. As if nothing had happened before.

"This is Anna, just like me. I don't think you should take care of him anymore." Dusk said coldly and was about to take baby Anna, which Baskara immediately kept out of his wife's reach.

"Sorry baby. I was dreaming once. But the promise now will take care of it well and will not bring baby Anna jatoh again. Not even a mosquito I'm gonna bite our kid."

Dusk rotates her eyes hearing her husband say excessively. "There are no mosquitoes in this house. Take good care of Anna. No need for that."

"Yes dear.. Sorry." said Baskara really sorry. Kissing his wife's cheek is followed by baby Anna imitating what her father did. He made his two parents laugh.

"Yaudah, I'm up again. Poor Kai I lived alone earlier." because if it was night, indeed the children were held alone by Dusk and Baskara.

Baskara. But following his wife's steps to the top floor where their room was.
