The Winter Man

The Winter Man
#01 In a match


Winter stands on top of a skyscraper looking down at the street. This is the first day he became a leader of a large company after his two-hour inauguration, he met many of his father's business partners and also talked a lot about their future business.


He is now twenty-five years old. His twin brother still lives in Country X and refuses to return to his birthplace.


His cousins were also successful in their respective fields. Lalita became a famous designer with Laura who became a model of the clothes she designed. Laura has entered the international model, she is loved by many fans from various countries.


Nathan, too, grew up to become a famous singer and actor. And Nala became a rich novelist more than her father ever was.


Many of his novels are in films with Nathan as the lead role in the film. They truly complement each other with their individual accomplishments.


Winter and Summer are both entrepreneurs.


A woman walked into the room standing behind Winter holding a map.


"Mr ..."


Winter turned his head without turning his body.


"The foundation will be up on Monday tomorrow. There's a file you need to sign."


"On the table" said Winter.


The woman named Lusi nodded and kept the file on the table.


"Mr Javier asked to meet you at seven at the rose restaurant, Mr ..."


Winter nods her head, and Lusi walks out of the room. Susi is Winter's third Secretary. It's been two people who have chosen to stop working with Winter because the man's cold attitude is hard to understand.


And the former secretary is a man, this is Secretary Winter's first time a woman. Lusi quickly adapts to the man, he easily understands Winter's cold attitude on the appeal of the previous Secretary.

Winter gets out of the car after Lusi opens the door for her. Winter went into the restaurant near her grandfather who was pouring drinks into a glass.


"Stop drinking alcohol, grandpa," Winter said, taking a small teapot in Javier's hand and sitting in front of his grandfather.


Javier smiles. "What's it like to be a leader? you're such a heavy burden to advance the company, aren't you?"


Winter simply replied with a smile and a nod of the head. Then Lusi came and stood behind Winter.


Javier looked at Lusi then clucked while shaking his head. "This is your third secretary. Will there be a fourth?" ask Javier then to Winter.


Winter smiled faintly then shook his head.


"We eat first, there is an important thing that you want to convey ..."


A waiter came carrying a food trolley after Javier raised his hand. All the food was served on the table.


Winter took the first feed trying panzanella typical Italian food served. Winter stopped chewing for a moment, sighed and then went back to chewing the food.


Susi who saw that raised her hand, the waiter came back to make Javier frown.


"Please replace Mr. Winter's food with another menu," said Lusi.


Winter kept the spoon. Javier stared alternately at Winter and Lusi.


"Wait .." sergeant Javier when the food was about to be taken.


"My grandson is eating, why are you taking it!"


"Mr Winter doesn't like the food, Mr. Javier," said Lusi.


"She just kept quiet, didn't say no!"


"He only appreciates food." Lucia explained. While the maid was just standing near Winter and Javier occasionally glanced at them one by one, confused. You have to take the food or not.


"Where do you know?" ask Javier.


"The way Mr. Winter chews food is like not enjoying it ..."


Javier looked at his granddaughter who was putting on that flat expression.


"You don't like the food?" ask Javier then.


"Why shut up then!"


*


After eating, they wiped his mouth with a cloth.


"Next ..." Javier kept the cloth on the table and looked Winter in the eye.


"Your father will betroth you to his friend's daughter ..."


Winter looked calm, although his heart was quite surprised by his grandfather's words.


"He won't speak to you directly for fear of you refusing ..."


Winter took a glass of wine and gulped it down. Javier can conclude that his granddaughter despite not speaking anything she must have rejected this matchmaking.


"But if you don't want the grandpa to talk to Ay-"


"I'm willing."


"Huh?" Javier widened his eyes.

Yura came out of her room in pink pajamas. He yawned in front of the door, scratching his head with his eyes half open as he was still sleepy.


"AYURAAAA .." cried Benjamin, the father.


"Mmmm ..." Yura answered lazily while walking down the stairs.


"God this kid ..." Benjamin shook his head while splashing his waist. While his mother, Bayuni. He just sat at the dining table with a long sigh.


"Dad .. I'm still sleepy," whiney Yura spoke right at the last step of the stairs.


"Let's eat ..."


Benjamin pulled his daughter's hand sitting at the dining table.


"Yura, you can't take medicine. At least you should be able to take care of your health." Bayuni grumbled while scooping the rice onto the plate.


Yura from the past could not take medicine. The slightest medicine could not be swallowed by the girl with an unpleasant and bitter reason. In addition, Yura was also very afraid of injections. He really hated all medical equipment. If sick, Yura only drank herbs made by Bi Ijah, her domestic assistant.


"If you're late to eat constantly, you can get sick and have to be injected, will you?" Benjamin threatened.


Sontak Ayura looked at Benjamin by shaking her head a few times. "No Dad, don't inject me!" he hugged himself with a frightened face.


"Eat it, don't be hard to manage. Let's eat." Bayuni stored the dishes that were already filled with rice and some side dishes in front of Yura.


Yura had breakfast with a lazy and uninspired face, she even chewed on food with her eyes closed.


Bi Ijah came to keep the fruits on the table. "Non Yura last night watching a movie anyway, staying up so it's still sleepy."


Yura immediately stared intently at Bi Ijah with an intimidating look for having leaked herself overnight.


"Ohhh .. great yeah, how many times Dad had to say stop watching movies until late at night! if it's still like that Dad will confiscate your laptop, tv and cell phone at night Yura!" benjamin's words were slightly raised.


Ayura clucked then snorted. "Dad ..." Ayura looked at her father. "That night I had to watch my idol movie ..."


"Who's your idol?" ask Bayuni.


"Nathan ..." Ayura's eyes immediately sparkled happily as if Nathan was in front of her. "Ahhh ..he is very handsome and his body is very good, Mom .. nothing seems to beat my Nathan's good looks ..."


Bayuni exhaled while rubbing his forehead looking at his daughter's expression that was always excessive and more when telling about the handsome actor.


"Yura stop idolizing that man because soon you're going to marry a business man." Benjamin cried.


"WHATAA?!!"
