A Glimpse of Light For Raina

Raina's Shocks

"Sir, I ordered blackpaper beef, kok, this is even chicken teriyaki, anyway, delivered!" Complaints from customers to me.

"Sorry, Mom, I took the order wrong. Come here, ma'am, let me change." I immediately took the wrong food and will trade it.

Just as my feet were about to move from the customer at table number 6, now the customer back at table number 9 called me.

"Mhrs ... Ma'am, this is probably the mother's order, because it's a blackpaper beef. And maybe it's my order that's switched mba, it's chicken teriyaki, right?" the customer said at number 9, pointing to the food I was holding.

"Yes, Mom, this is chicken teriyaki. I'm sorry, ma'am, I didn't look carefully at the table number on the order paper, so it's changed." I said as I apologized.

"Yes, it's okay, ma'am. Next time the work is done, Ma'am." he said understand my mistake.

I immediately returned to table number 6, carrying the actual order.

"Please, ma'am, this is the blackpaper beef, it was switched on table number 9. Sorry for the inconvenience." I said, bowing half my body in apology.

After finishing with the matter of exchanging orders, I immediately headed for the kitchen again. I don't know why I was so late today. Everything I do is always wrong.

I paused for a moment in the corner of the kitchen, calming myself for a moment. I see the wall clock still showing at 21:00.

"There's still two hours left, patience, Rai. Passion ... Spirit ...." I muttered to myself.

After I felt calm enough, I resumed my work. Until the time to come home came.

I'm still waiting for customers who still enjoy the food, then clean the table that no guests have. After making sure all the customers were not there and all the tables were clean, we turned off all the lights in each room, indicating the restaurant was closed.

I packed up, got ready to go home. I immediately came out of the restaurant, afraid that Brother Aldo had waited too long in the parking lot. Yeah, every night work, Brother Aldo always picks me up.

Upon arrival at the restaurant parking lot, I did not find Kak Aldo there. I called his phone immediately, but there was no answer.

"Maybe Aldo's on his way." I said.

I went back to the front door of the restaurant, sitting in the restaurant's main while waiting for Kak Aldo. One by one the other friends had gone home. I am left here myself. There is a feeling of being alone on a dark night and in a quiet place like this.

The sound of a motorcycle from the back of the restaurant, it turns out that Mas Awan is coming out from there. And he came closer to me.

"Well, how come you're still here, Rai?" heed

"Yes, Mas, I'm still waiting for my brother to pick me up." I replied.

"Oh, that. Yeah, I've been with you until you get picked up" he said.

"Thank you, Mom. Maybe it'll be here soon." I said.

Mas Awan got off his motorcycle and immediately sat next to me without excuse.

"Oh, yes, Rai .. I noticed you today the work is very chaotic. Are you having any more problems?" ask her.

"Ehm, not really, Mom. I'm okay." I replied.

"Honestly, who knows? with you taking out your junk, you're relieved." he said.

I just smiled faintly, it felt reluctant to share with anyone this heartbreak, except Sandra who knew the incident this afternoon.

Mas Awan looked at me so closely, that it made me misbehave.

"Rai .. I want to be honest with you" he said.

"Honestly? Honest about what?" I asked as I scrunched my eyebrows.

Degs...

"meaning?" ask again.

"Rai .. actually, I've been watching you for a long time before Sandra introduced you back then and before you worked here. And I guess .. I'm starting to fall for you. Rai, you want to be my girlfriend?" said it.

"Well! Since when?" I was surprised to hear his words, so all this time he's been a paparazzi.

"Since a few months ago you were still in school" he said.

That long and I don't know at all. I fell silent, the statement he just revealed really shocked me. This kind of situation makes me very much in a dilemma.

"race .... Kok, shut up, anyway. How's it?" ask her.

From a distance looks like a spotlight on Kak Aldo's motorcycle. Finally, Brother Aldo saved myself from this situation.

"Sorry, Rai... Sister overslept. So long, yeah, wait for it?" ask Aldo

"Hehehe .. Is it okay, brother? The important thing is that Brother is here to pick me up." I replied while wearing a helmet and immediately climbed on a motorcycle without answering Mas Awan's question.

Brother Aldo noticed Mas Awan who was still standing in his place.

"Thank you, Mom, I've done my sister." said Aldo.

"Yes, Mas, you're the same." replied Mas Awan.

"Sorry, Mas .. I first, yes" I told Mas Awan.

Mas Awan only smiled faintly and nodded his head in response.

Kak Aldo's motorbike began to accelerate, penetrating the dark of his night and the air of the cold night wind became complementary, accompanying our journey home.

Tired of my mind, heart and mind today. Still recorded clearly in my memory for the attitude of my mother who ignored me yesterday and tonight, how shocked I was at the words and statements of Mas Awan who fell in love with me, adding to the turmoil of my heart.

"Sorry, Mr. Awan, this is not the right time for me to think about love." My inner self.

"Who was that guy, Rai?" asked Brother Aldo to break my daydream.

"That's Mas Awan, Sandra's older cousin and an employee at the restaurant as well, sister" I replied.

"Oh .. So, that's the guy who sent you home?" ask Brother Aldo.

"Lho, what, Brother Aldo know?" I asked Aldo again. Where did he know, and I never talked about him again at that time.

"Kan, you yourself are talking to Raka, if you are escorted by her cousin Sandra at that time. So, Brother immediately guessed, if that's the person." said Kak Aldo.

"Hehee ... Oh, yes, Raina forgot, sister." I replied while grinning the horse.

"Where the hell, you? Still young but already forgetful, meaning his memory is still good Brother, nih." taunted Kak Aldo.

I just snorted in annoyance and swung my lips.

I swear, I don't remember ever talking to Raka.

I patted my forehead, saying inwardly, "Gosh! How come, I'm suddenly amnesiac like this?"

Seriate....
