"Ruby left first, Bund. Pray that Ruby's work is smooth and there are not many obstacles. If there's anything, hurry up Ruby's phone, yes," Ruby said. This morning after saying goodbye and asking for the blessing of his mother, the girl immediately went to the office ushered by Robby. This morning was Ruby's first day working at Adiyaksa Holdings as Aresh's secretary, as no one wanted Ruby to arrive late on her first day of work, Robby decided to take her sister before leaving for college.
Meanwhile, at the same time but in a different place, Naura was pairing a tie around Aresh's neck. The young man looked very handsome and dashing in a deep gray suit with a misty hairstyle.
"Well, Mommy's son is very handsome." Naura smiled as she looked up at her son.
"Mommy could have."
"Yes already, leaving there, today is the first day you replace papa you lead his company, so you must not come late," said Naura. The middle-aged woman then took a stock box that she had prepared for her son. It became a habit when her three children were young. Naura would not allow them to snack haphazardly outside and eat unhealthy food.
Aresh frowned when he saw the mommy put two boxes of different colors into the bag. "Well, Mommy, why are there two boxes?"
Naura smiled. "The gray is clearly yours, baby, but this one, this pink box, Mommy wants help, please give it to Ruby, huh? You don't mind, do you?"
"Ru-Ruby?" Aresh was in disbelief. "Why did Mommy make provisions for the girl? Couldn't he bring supplies from his own house."
To be honest, Aresh doesn't like it when his mommy treats that girl very special. Last night his mommy made a surprise by making the girl his secretary without asking for her approval first, while this morning, the mommy even made provisions for the girl as well. Isn't this too much, what's so special about that girl? Thought Aresh.
"Yes, Mommy knows Ruby can bring supplies from her own home, but that's if she's good at cooking, or what?" Naura.
"But, Mom, he's that's a 'right-"
"Already, don't protest much, quickly go there. Anyway Mommy doesn't want to know, you have to give it to Ruby, otherwise-"
"Mommy will scold me," Aresh continued, cutting off Mommy's words.
Naura laughed because her son already knew what she was going to say. "Well, that's you know."
"Yes, Aresh left first, Mom." Aresh said goodbye while kissing the back of Naura's hand.

Adiyaksa Holdings
Ruby was standing right in front of the entrance of the office building. When he arrived, Naura called him and told him to wait for Aresh there. Not long ago, the young man finally arrived at the office ushered by a personal driver and his assistant, Bagas.
"Good morning, sir," said Ruby, looking down, as she actually felt a little awkward towards the man after what they had experienced last night.
"Hem." Aresh muttered as he gave Ruby his bag without warning, almost the girl dropped it because there was no preparation at all.
Gosh darn. Whatisthis? Inner Ruby.
"Hi, good morning, and welcome to Adiyaksa Holdings." Bagas greets Ruby with a smile, then breezes in following Aresh who is walking towards the elevator.
"Ha-hai," replied Ruby. The girl was still standing on the spot while fixing the bag of supplies that she had almost dropped.
"Hey, why are you still standing there? Come on in," take Bagas after walking a few steps but Ruby is still at home standing in place.
"Ah, yes." Ruby then aligned her steps with the young man. "Why did you come in too?" naura asked curiously, as she remembered that the young man was Aresh's personal driver. Didn't he see the neat appearance of the man this morning that doesn't look at all like the driver.
Bagas simply smiled in response to Ruby's remark, then gave the girl a business card.
"What's this?" ask Ruby. His eyes instantly widen when he learns that the man he thinks is Aresh's personal driver turns out to be Aresh's assistant as well. "Sorry, I don't know."
Bagas smiled. "It's okay. Oh yes, Secretary Ruby, from now on we are co-workers, I hope we can both work well together in the future."
Ruby smiled shyly. It felt a little strange when someone first called him that. "Of course."
Meanwhile, Aresh who secretly listened to the interaction of the two also felt dislike when he saw Bagas who looked familiar with Ruby, even though they had just known each other.
