Harry Miles looked confused in his office while he was having an impromptu plenary meeting. Everyone, which involved or non-involved persons were requested to attend. The meeting was now disrupting the entire work schedule of his employees that had piled up.
Made everyone suffer from acute stress because they had to go through a meeting that tortured not only their minds but also their heart which were now increasingly raging.
Harry Miles again asked someone, whoever it was to replace Cleo to take care of his big project 'Deluxe Project'. No one dared volunteer themselves to carry out such a noble mission, especially after the serious incident they heard about in the construction area.
All of Harry's employees looked very frustrated. They began to reconsider submitting their respective resignation letters because they could not stand the pressure that often came suddenly.
however, many of them were still considering the amount of salary that Harry's company gave them. So they were still strong to stay in their current position and didn't come up with bad ideas to fight back.
Some of the others, just quietly waiting for someone to propose themselves or at least until the boss was tired of pointing at someone and maybe it was better to pick one at random.
None of the participants present could understand Harry's fickle mind. Suddenly he didn't want to take care of the big project he had been working on since the beginning. And didn't understand why after he had thrown the job at his wife, their boss wanted to throw it back at someone else.
None of those present at the meeting agreed with the decision. Felt burdened because this project was directly monitored by a cold-blooded monster who was a perfectionist and crazy about success.
Neither of them wanted to take the risk. It was not just because their abilities can't keep up with his desires.
But the fact that he kicked his own wife to not taking care of this project anymore made the hearts of the employees nervous.
Then some of them were quietly worried too if they accept the job. One day if they made one small mistake as his wife did, their job and position will be at stake.
No one wanted to take that risk.
They were still looking down and counting forward the ticking sound of the clock ticking. Everyone who was present in it really made him unable to move. So Dirga, again, had to try to persuade.
All of his co-workers pleaded with their eyes of pity silently. Dirga was put in a tight situation when he just arrived after finishing all his business at the construction site.
"I have solved the problems that were at the construction site. Would you like to meet the man who threw the stone?" Dirga asked in a whisper beside Harry's ear.
All of Harry's employees spontaneously stared in amazement at Dirga's ability to get closer to a polar bear. Everyone seemed to be clapping loudly in their hearts.
Harry immediately asked Dirga to show the way. And decided to postpone the meeting.
"I will choose directly who the candidate is if two of you do not present yourself directly to me by submitting a letter of consent. The rest, I will punish you to do other additional work," said Harry so casually and killed everyone.
All of the employees immediately limped and thrashed madly. Cursed their unfriendly boss with tens or even hundreds of swearing. One woman even wanted to cry hearing it. And the others blamed each other.
"Why didn't you the most high-ranking person in this meeting volunteer?"
"And why didn't you who was the freest of all-volunteer yourself?"
"Then what about you? Don't you want to expand your skills in managing new projects?"
"See! It's all because neither of you wants to sacrifice yourself! As a result, now, the wild lion made unreasonable conditions. He didn't just ask one person to volunteer. But two!"
"Imagine! He's now asking two people to volunteer?"
Everyone patted their heads in frustration and laid limply on their chairs and desks.
Decided to take the middle ground. The second plenary meeting continued without the presence of the first leader. Discussed and determined who will be the angel among everyone.
They finally decided to do a 'scissors, rock and paper', and then paper raffle if needed!!
***
Cleo who did not know the commotion caused by her husband could only relax at home accompanied by Julia and Aunt Ane. Made some activities together and cooked for dinner.
Tonight Cleo decided to throw a welcoming party for Julia for her success in getting a new job also a new house. It could also be their short farewell party because it would be Julia's last night at the house.
A sudden call startled them all.
~ Dring Dring Dring...
The automatic answering machine said the name of the caller.
## The Old Lady is calling!! ~ The Old Lady is calling!! ##
The sound of the answering machine startled Cleo as well as Julia. Cleo then looked at Aunt Ane seriously.

"That machine can talk?" She asked in surprise. It was also the first time for Cleo to hear her house's phone rang.
Aunt Ane just smiled and nodded. It seemed that Sofia's call was meant to serve as a warning for the householders to find out who was calling before they answer the phone.
Cleo immediately walked over to the phone and picked it up.
Heard quickly a very familiar and booming voice. Cleo moved the telephone slightly away.
"MY DEAR CLEO!!! Are you okay?" Sofia asked, extremely worried. Cleo also had time to hear someone else's voice behind her.
"Grandmother! Why don't you loudspeaker the phone anyway? I want to hear it too!" Christina said excitedly behind her. Aunt Lily's voice also seemed to be heard.
"Mother, quickly load the speakers. We want to hear it," Lily was quite excited.
Cleo seemed to be able to understand this.
"How did you all know about the incident that happened to me?"
Cleo then answered Sofia's question.
"I'm fine. And I'm not hurt, Grandma. If that's what you want to know."
Sofia, Christina, and Lily feel relieved too.
"We only found out about it a few minutes ago. Even though I just wanted to look for you for a while. But your phone is unreachable. And when I called the office, they said there was a certain incident involving you this morning. So, we are spontaneously very worried."
Christina followed her grandma to grumbling in the back.
"Harry is really sucked! Already know there is a problem like this, instead of telling the news directly to us. He didn't even dare to answer our phone calls. And his secretary also conspired with him. He really wanted to make us go back and forth anxiously and incoherently. Luckily we can finally reach you at home!"
Lily also chimed in, "But luckily I took the initiative to check on you at home, honey. And it turns out that you are in the house. Is Harry with you now? If there is, give him the phone!"
Aunt Lily meant to scold her nephew but it turned out that her nephew was not by her side. Cleo laughed a little at the anxiety of her new temporary family.
"Harry's still at the office, Auntie. So he could just take me home and shower, then leave again. I think he is currently very busy dealing with the incident," Cleo tried not to corner Harry. Because Cleo knew Harry was quite angry over this incident but didn't show much of it through his expression.
"So you're alone at home, my granddaughter-in-law?" Sofia asked as friendly as ever. Even though she already knew that her granddaughter's marriage was a pure sham.
Cleo shook her head. But when she came to her senses, Grandma couldn't see the shaking of her head. Cleo then answered Sofia.
"No, Grandma. I'm at home with Aunt Ane and a friend of mine. Grandma doesn't need to worry. I'm not alone," Cleo glanced slightly at Ane and Julia at the same time. The two of them looked at each other too.
Sofia then nodded in understanding.
"Then we will also be there to accompany you. I'm sure you're still in shock. And then Grandma wants also to hear the story directly from you."
Cleo panic.
"No, Grandma! Do not!" She said quickly and unconsciously.
Sofia immediately asked, "Why?"
Cleo racked her brain.
Afraid that Harry would be angry if his grandmother came back to this house without talking to him first. Plus, not only her grandmother who will also come. But Christina, Aunt Lily, they will come to visit too.
Cleo was sure Harry would be furious!
So, wasn't that why the answering machine for Sofia's calling used custom-made?
" I don't want to bother you all, my best family on Harry's side. I'm really fine! Because there's a friend of mine who helps and replaces me with to injured. That incident didn't hurt me at all."
Julia was a little surprised to see Cleo looked panicked to receive a visit from her own family. Cleo was still trying to keep persuading.
"Don't you people want to scold Harry? Then you can do it later when he's around. Because I'm not sure if he has time to listen to your complaints in a good mood. I don't want any commotion."
Sofia began to ponder and wouldn't make things worse. Sofia decided to relent.
Asked Cleo to rest more, to put her mind at ease. They finally ended the call peacefully.
