Everyone stood up to welcome Dika and Rudi.
Rudi held Dika's shoulder as the two were about to pass through the meeting door. "Bismillah Son. I believe in you."
Dika nodded incantation. "Bismillahhirohmanirrohim.." murmured Dika lirih but full of resignation and confidence.
As Edo opened the meeting, Dika gathered all her strength. Although his position was already strong now, yet he had to make all convinced that he was progressing not only relying on his legacy of power but because he was able to lead the company.
It has been predicted that there will be a fierce and tough debate this time. Rudi's presence was very helpful. Indeed, he did not have good communication skills, but every time Dika got an attack, Rudi could always be relied on to find a gap and save himself.
He must also try to stay upright, amid the attacks of the directors. Feeling depressed is certain, but fortunately he was ready so he did not have to run and save himself.
Adzan dzuhur reverberated, Dika felt tired of being more than 2 hours in a situation that was quite tense and tiring like this. Dika really want to rest, but this meeting is a responsibility if not immediately completed.
During the adhan reverberated, Rudi asked for a moment to respect the Muslims.
"Can I say something now?" asked Rudi after Adzan finished reverberating.
Rudi took a breath after being invited. His eyes met with Dika who was still firmly standing beside him. Optimists were cut from Dika's handsome face. Restu seems sure but why am I even in the dera doubt.
"We fight together, what has been the same father as the late papa stubis," said Dika who can only be heard by Rudi.
As she gained a stream of confidence, Rudi began to raise her face. "I don't think this meeting needs to be extended because the owners of most of the shares have agreed. In addition, the construction and development project of the south coast development has been won by Pak Restu together with Surya Development led by Director Reno. And.." suddenly Rudi felt out of words.
Without a sound Dika asked Rudi for permission to continue speaking. "You guys are working pretty well. If it doesn't work out, we won't hold you back from staying in the company."
The room suddenly quiet. There was no reply after Dika finished his speech.
"Alright, it seems that what was said by Mr. Rudi and Mr. Restu was indeed true. Sometimes idealism cannot work with reality, and vice versa. I agree.." said Mr. Hari as Director of marketing at one branch of Surya Group.
Although the reaction is still diverse, eventually all those there expressed agreement and gave approval to the appointment of Restu Andika Putra Surya as CEO of Surya Group.
Edo closed the meeting and all dispersed afterwards. Indeed there are still those who look unwilling, but they lose power. And Dika is determined to show everyone that he is capable and worthy of being the face of Surya Group.
Dika was speechless to see Rudi who suddenly bowed in gratitude. Why does he seem happy?
Everything has come out, leaving Rudi and Dika there.
"Dad prostrate for what?" asked Dika after Rudi got up from his bow.
Rudi rubbed the corner of his eye. "Dead Hendro Daddy can't do anything. I feel pretty presumptuous by marrying your mama, so I don't dare to step up to take care of your company. It's not wrong that your father chose Edo, although at first Dad hesitated, but he managed to break Dad's doubts. And by looking at you like this, I feel Dad's burden is less because the company is in good hands."
"I still doubt my abilities."
Rudi patted Dika's shoulder. "There is a God who gives knowledge and supplies you with reason. There's Dad there's Edo and... Reno looks like you also made it a place to exchange ideas..."
"Are you serious about Reno's son?"
Dika took out a cigarette and started lighting it. "yes." He sucked and exhaled the white smoke afterwards. "More after my identity is revealed. It'll be hard to find a woman who can accept me regardless of my wealth."
Rudi nodded. "Dad agrees..."
"I didn't ask for your approval, Doctor," said Dika coldly.
Rudi's face immediately changed.
Once again Dika chuckled. Even a small laugh had already slid without being able to hold it. Especially when I heard Rudi sighing non-relaxedly.
"I'm just happy." Rudi took his distance.
Dika dead the cigarette that there is not half that. "It's a lie that I say sincerely I can accept Dad, but my logic says I have to keep doing it."
"You mean?"
"I'd assume Dad was my parent, though I still couldn't equate him with papa." Dika slowly looked at Rudi's face. "So don't be too stiff if occasionally I joke.." concluded Dika ended with laughter.
Rudi grabbed Dika's tall body. "You're the boy I'm most proud of."
"Didn't you want to give your sister to Restu and Rista?" dika asked after the embrace of the two missed.
Rudi smiled in response. "Father already had an amazing son and daughter. I think that's more than enough."
"But I really don't forbid if Dad and mom still want another generation of successors."
Rudi invited Dika to walk out of the room. "It feels like waiting for you to give that grandchild is much more fun."
The laughter both broke.
Outside Edo and Reno were seen chatting with several company officials. "Are you going back to the hospital, sir?" ask Edo.
"I still want to pray dzuhur first, all of you invite my child to lunch. Do you want to go together to Mushola?"
"Yes sir, I also have not prayed" said Reno received Rudi's invitation.
Finally Rudi managed to bring with him the high class people who in his ID card stated Islam went to the mosque to prostrate and humble. If usually because they are busy and many other reasons they will pray alone in their room, now they blend with other employees to join congregational prayers.
Surprise can also be found again when Rudi is willing to become their prayer priest complete with tausiah after the completion of his short-lived dzikir. There was a discussion that could be answered well by Rudi.
"Will be fooled if the leader of a religious company is like this..."
Although vague, Dika could hear clearly what some of his employees had just said.
Dika stared fixedly at his stepfather who was still talking to colleagues. He remained a simple figure even though he had everything. He is not greedy for power even though he can get it. O Allah, please accept my father Rudi Andika as my father. Open your heart to accept the destiny you have laid down.
