Ari Mahesa stared intently at the figure of her son who had just messed up the important meeting today. He thinks today is a good time to show all the company's staff and shareholders that he is a strong leader in educating his successors.
Actually, the intention is for Arya's sake because later all the company staff will never gossip behind. That his son immediately got a position as CEO of the company because he relied on connections.
That's what made him give a job at the lowest so that his son could feel the difficulty of working. That making money is very difficult and requires sweat, as well as the brain to think.
If all employees think that he is not picky and will still be firm with everyone without thinking anyone, will ease the way his son later when leading the company.
Everyone will respect Arya not as her son, but as a very responsible company leader. That is what makes him test Arya to work as a cleaning service and a few weeks later will increase his position as a marketing staff and others in accordance with the achievements that will be achieved by his son.
Now, he directs an intimidating stare and begins to issue a curse on Arya as a form to continue his charade.
"Basic, don't know manners! Does this kind of thing Papa taught you? Did you know we were discussing something important in this room?"
While Arya who did not care at all, chose to explode all the anger that erupted in the heart.
"Is Papa worthy to call himself a father if in fact he tortures his own son like this? I am the future leader of this company because your only son. Is it worth working as the lowest staff in the company?"
Arya now showed her hands which she said immediately turned rough and also her neat appearance had become messy and sweat was still flowing at her temple.
"Look at this, Pa! The appearance of a prospective successor to the company is really very sad. Isn't this so embarrassing? Is Papa not ashamed if all the staff in this company blasphemes you in the back?"
Arya was now a little relieved after revealing all the statements that from earlier filled her brain. He wanted his father to realize the mistake of having tortured him in the office today.
Even he seemed to want to vomit when imagining the thing that had been done, namely cleaning the toilet that was first done in his lifetime.
However, he again felt very disappointed when he heard the response and calm facial expression from the father, but his sentence was very hurtful and made him swallow.
Ari Mahesa now stood up from her position and raised her hand before opening her mouth. Then he started slapping his son with his answer.
“First, you do not deserve to be a leader in this company. Your attitude like this, makes me reluctant to give that position. What is wrong with feeling what others are feeling? "
"You can see those who work happily and do not protest against the work they get. You're so lucky to have me here and hire you without having to take the test like the others. What is a cleverness if there is no manners?”
Still not taking his eyes off the figure of his son who was standing by the table, Ari Mahesa this time just smiled smirk as she looked at her son's face that was getting flushed. Indicates that his son is very angry, but can not do anything when he realizes the mistake.
The words that the father made really slapped Arya. It is true that his attitude does not reflect that of a leader. Arya felt embarrassed after getting a real slap like that.
However, he still did not move from his place or even opened his mouth to just refute. Of course, he is currently confused about what to do because everything that is said if the father is true.
Moreover, the sound of the baritone echoing filled the spacious room with everyone who was still sitting quietly in a chair had closed their mouths and seemed to just want to be a spectator as he and the father argued to seek the justification of each.
Ari Mahesa this time chose to be more assertive so that her son no longer considered her weak and unbearable. He hopes that later Arya becomes the leader of the company, also behaving like him and not looking at the status of someone who made a mistake.
“If you mind working as a cleaning service here, the exit is there and don't dare come here again!”
Instantly Arya gulped her rough saliva. His body felt stiff with the eye gazes of everyone there. Arya is forced to endure and think about the Princess who will give birth in the near future.
Although deep down, this moment wanted to curse, but could not do it, so it could only do it inwardly.
'Shit! Why is my fate so bad today? I feel like I want to drown myself in the sea so that everyone here doesn't see me. They must be laughing and swearing at me. Goddamnit!' aryan cursed in his heart and made him not waste time to immediately go from there.
“I'm sorry, Pa. My attitude is so rude right now. I'm sorry to interrupt this meeting. I'll be back to work.” After saying that, Arya walked out and came back to clean the toilet.
However, before, he prepared himself first by sitting down and taking a few breaths. Stabilize himself in order to survive with a variety of bad thoughts from the staff in there.
That someday the father will admit the sense of responsibility that he has today.

An hour later, in the office of the ruler, two men were seen discussing the incident in the meeting room and of course a warm conversation of all the company staff.
Ari was with a trusted assistant who he trusted and was considered like a brother.
The man wearing the full-coloured suit was sitting across from the back by reading some of the files they were checking this time. However, he slightly interjected by discussing the only son who would become the leader of the company.
“Jadi ... You really did it. Punishing your son this way?”
Ari who this time raised her face from the documents in hand, turned to the man before her.
“I just taught him, that it all started with a hard effort and it is not easy to get everything alone. All this time, my wife had been pampering him. Until he can't think independently."
"In fact, working like this alone he berates many people. Embarrassing and feeling I couldn't bear this feeling. Tell everyone to shut up if they don't want to be fired. I'm sure that all the staff were discussing the incident in the meeting room earlier."
Ari threw the document in her hand and switched to leaning on the back of the sofa. Then massaging his temples because of today's events managed to make him feel very dizzy.
Actually, seeing that, the man who was none other than Putra Wijaya wanted to remind the boss and his best friend so as not to be too hard on Arya.
He who has never liked violence, wants to resuscitate his best friend if it will be bad because it will even create a grudge in Arya's heart to the father. Of course he was worried if that happened.
“Yes, sometimes it is not a problem to make it deterred. So, when are you going to punish Arya? If judging from his performance during helping you finish the job, I have to admit your son's intelligence is indeed declining from you.
"But I don't want you to be too hard on him. Maybe sometimes it doesn't matter. Although for Arya's rude and stubborn attitude, I think it seems that only your wife knows because she has been raising and educating. While you spend more time in the office every day."
Not immediately answered because it looks Ari is still busy with his activities that are massaging his temple. Although he was very strict with his son, actually in his heart was also injured.
Which father would have seen his descendants suffer, but he thought he had to do it because it was also for the good of Arya. He wanted nothing, only to hope that one day his son would thank him after understanding his intention to do all that.
“Yes, I don't know when. Maybe later, after he was really deterred and had the attitude I expected. At least, there is a word of wanting to fight in him for others.”
“I understand. It is not easy at this time for you to see the only successor even entangled with women who are not worth it and status as the wife of people. May there be wisdom behind all this."
Wijaya's son is actually concerned about what his best friend's family is going through because Ari has told him about what Arya used to do. Until he thought, what is special about the woman, to make an Aryan who is rarely close to a woman can be crazy.
Love, that's what makes the question in his head answered and indeed if it relates to it, nothing will interfere with the argument. The son only nodded slowly as his best friend now thanked him.
“Thank you, you've tried to remind Arya first, but indeed the child needs one hard punch in order to be more trying to achieve something.”
Their conversation made Ari sigh. No parent can watch their child suffer.
But nevertheless, the, all must be done for Arya's own good because she does not know when to leave this world and will leave her son without her brother to live a life full of tempest.
Of course most likely, one day it will hit his son and he wants Arya to be strong in the face of the problems that come and be able to solve them.
'When you die, you'll know that everything you're going through today is for your own good, my son,' muttered Ari who was now breathing deeply as he remembered what he had done in the meeting room.
