At the five-star hotel restaurant, Haikal met with his business partner along with his assistant and Aura. Beni walked behind Haikal with Aura. Haikal was in front of them as their boss.
Upon entering the private room that had been reserved, a waiter opened the door where two people were already sitting and waiting inside.
"Welcome, Mr. Haikal," greeted a man who was a few years older than Haikal.
"How are you, Mr. Handoko," Haikal returned the handshake of the man named Handoko.
They both smiled, "Good, you look more mature, Haikal," said Mr. Handoko accompanied by a chuckle.
"You flatter me, but indeed I am no longer young, sir,"
They sat in their respective chairs, the waiter only prepared drinks, because they would discuss work first.
"Everyone is here, this is Secretary Aura who holds our collaboration project," Haikal introduced Aura, greeted with a nod and a sweet smile from Aura.
"I thought you looked young because you have a young and beautiful secretary like Miss Aura," Mr. Handoko looked at Haikal with a wide grin.
"You always have a way with words, sir," Haikal replied without diminishing his politeness.
Aura began her presentation in front of the four men of different ages, deftly and clearly explaining how the project would be carried out. In addition, Aura also explained in detail what should be considered to support the sale of the apartment units that would be built, in addition to adult facilities, Aura also added several playgrounds for children.
"Maybe most apartments are only for investment or bought by young entrepreneurs, but here I think we will make a new apartment launch with family designs and facilities, it may sound a bit strange, but after I observed a few things, many families also buy apartment units, on weekends they will take a vacation spending time with a new atmosphere." Aura said full of sparkle, as if she had just told a story of a family who wanted a new atmosphere to spend time together.
Meanwhile, without Aura realizing it, since she spoke, a pair of eyes stared at her in amazement. Not only Haikal felt Aura's idea was brilliant, but Mr. Handoko also acknowledged it.
Clap...clap...clap...
"Wow...a very good idea, you must have surveyed before making all this," Mr. Handoko looked at Aura in amazement.
Aura smiled, "I also live in an apartment, sir, and so far I have seen a lot of how people seem to have desires, maybe using new innovations will make their dreams come true."

A message came into Aura's phone as she had just arrived at her apartment.
'Honey, I have a business trip abroad for a few days... Sorry I couldn't see you first because it was sudden...take care of yourself, I love you..'
Aura, who had just read the message from her lover Mario, sighed.
"Why didn't you say so earlier, at least I could have met him at the office earlier," she muttered to herself.
"Be careful, I hope your work is done quickly, take care of your health.. love you too.."
Aura replied to Mario's message and immediately entered her unit, but before she could close the door, the sound of the unit next door opening. Aura looked to the side again, she saw a suitcase that came out first followed by Lisa.
"Lis, are you going away?" Aura asked, approaching Lisa.
"Ah, yes Aura.. this weekend I will visit my parents out of town." Lisa said with a smile, hiding her nervousness that Aura suddenly caught.
Lisa thought Aura had gone home a while ago, because it was already eight o'clock at night.
"Oh, then say hello to your family," Aura approached and gave Lisa a brief hug as a farewell hug.
"I will definitely tell them later, Aura," Lisa returned Aura's brief hug and smiled.
"Be careful then,"
"You too ya.."
Lisa waved her hand at Aura, and Aura replied.
"Bye.."
Without suspicion, Aura chose to enter her unit to clean herself. Today's routine made her so tired, although her tiredness was paid off because she got a big project.
Dropping all her clothes on the floor, Aura immediately went into the bathroom to relax her sticky body.
Soaking in warm water with a very refreshing soap aroma made Aura unconsciously spend quite a long time. Until more than thirty minutes Aura had just finished and came out of the bathroom.
Bruk
"Huh... it feels very refreshing," Aura laid her body on her wide bed.
Until a few moments Aura almost fell asleep when her ears heard her cellphone ringing.
Ting
Her cellphone that was being charged rang again indicating a message had arrived. Aura got up to see whose message it was.
"I sent a food delivery service to your address, don't forget to have dinner after doing quite tiring work all day,"
Aura frowned as she read the long message with the new number. Soon there was a doorbell, making Aura get up from her place.
"Good evening, Miss, I'm delivering your order to this address,"
A food delivery man handed over a paperbag.
"Who sent this?" Aura asked.
"I don't know, I'm just delivering it."
After the food delivery man left, her cellphone rang again with a message.
"There's no poison in that food, so don't think negatively."
"Who is this," Aura typed something to reply to the message.
"Who are you? I will definitely think badly if I don't know the origin of this food,"
Send
Aura replied to the message and it was immediately read.
"As encouragement for your hard work today who got a big tender from Mr. Handoko... Haikal..."
Seeing the last name made Aura's eyes widen with her jaw gaping.
"M-Mr. Haikal..." Aura stammered.

Two days after the meeting of the collaboration agreement with Mr. Handoko, now Aura often visits the head office. After the weekend off, upon entering Aura was already busy with the project that would take place.
Today Aura had gone back and forth from the branch office to the head office twice, although tired but Aura was so enthusiastic remembering the collaboration tender that was entrusted so promising if it went smoothly.
"Miss, Mr. Haikal is waiting for you in the meeting room." Said the female receptionist when she saw Aura who had just arrived.
"Okay, thank you," Aura always spoke politely. Which makes people who are involved with her feel happy.
Tenth floor, Aura had just come out of the elevator and walked hastily to get to the meeting room, she thought her boss would meet in his workspace, but who would have thought that she had to go to the meeting room.
Ceklek
"Good afternoon, sorry I'm late,"
Aura lowered her face with her breath rising and falling after walking in a hurry.
"Please sit down, Miss Aura," said Beni, Haikal's assistant.
Aura nodded and walked towards the middle seat. Aura herself did not know why there were some people in the room that she did not know.
"Sir, the management of AlX company canceled the collaboration, after they waited for young master Mario who would make a visit but never arrived in LN."
Hearing the report from the person sitting in front of her table made Aura's eyes narrow.
"Wasn't Mario doing that meeting since two days ago?"
Everyone looked at each other, except Aura who did not know anything.
"No, sir, this morning AIX informed that they were disappointed with the promise that had been agreed with young master Mario."
Silent, no sound, until Haikal's heavy voice startled Aura.
"Make a repeat promise whatever it is, Aura will replace Mario."
