THE CHOICE IN MY LIFE
SECTION 68
“You're home apparently. I've been calling you, Tia.” Rio was worried about not being able to contact Tia after the company's meal was over.
“HP I'm in the room, and it's in cas.” Tia answered while focusing on the show she was watching.
“Emmm . . What you don't want to ask me.” Rio replied doubtfully.
“No need to ask because you owe me an explanation, Mr. Vice Director!” said Tia ketus.
“Tia, listen to me.” Rio clasped his wife's hands and asked her to look at him, “Really I have no intention of lying to you, I want to tell you everything if I think the time is right, but I never thought Raka would call me in front of all the employees at the meeting this afternoon.”
He looked into both of Tia's eyes and the beautiful woman was still silent before him.
“Really, Tia. I have no intention to deceive you, please don't be mad at me.” Pinta Rio in despair.
Tia let go of Rio's hand and hugged the man sitting in front of her. “No need to feel guilty like that, I don't blame you, Rio. I know you mean it with your words.” After trying to calm Rio down, Tia released her embrace.
“You believe me? You're not mad at me?”
“Of course I'm mad at you, but I'll believe you. I feel like these few months are enough for me to judge your personality. You never lie in front of me. At least that's what I know. Even though you occupy a position as a manager all this time, I know if you really work well.”
“How do you know if I work well?”
“You think all this time your team members never complained behind your back? They complain of the pain of working under your leadership.”
“What am I like?”
“Maybe. And I make sure all employees who know how your performance will be horrified to get a new boss like you.”
“Do I have to change my leadership?” rio asked who was starting to like sharing opinions with Tia.
“Do not. Don't change what has become of you. It's just more sensitive to the employees below you. Don't push everything to your will. But if the job is very urgent, what to say.”
“Thanks, Tia. Thank you for believing in me and giving me advice on becoming a better leader in the future.”
“You're right once.” Rio spread both his hands towards Tia.
“Stop! What do you want to do?”
Rio still raised both his hands in the air, “I want to hug you again.” Rio replied innocently.
“Let your hands down.” Tia helped lower Rio's two hands. “I don't allow you to hug me.”
“What? But . . . but you just hugged me first.” Rio Protest.
“Yes, because I wanted it.”
“Do I have to get permission to touch my own wife?”
“Yup! Right once.” Tia Toda.
“Tia! I am a grown man who is 31 years old at the moment. I'm not a teenager who has to ask permission first if I want to touch mine!” rio's protests are getting more intense.
“If you mind, we can discuss it now.” Reply Tia with her serious face.
“No . . No, I'm sorry. I'll obey you. You win.” Rio's face could no longer be conditioned for fear that Tia would leave him.
“Hahahaha . . You are indeed your dream husband, Rio. Get up and take a shower. It's already night.”
“Alright . . “ Reply Rio ogah-ogahan.
Tia who was looking at her husband like that, thought to herself when Rio had already climbed up and entered her room.
“ Never thought, a man as cold as him could act like that in front of me.” Guman Tia chuckled.
