"Grandfather, I'm sorry...Clowns can't jog" said Kanaya.
The woman knows how perfectionistic Jacob is. And based on the living class of the man, Jacob would definitely feel embarrassed to do the children's request.
"Well..."
There was a clear look of disappointment on the faces of the children. But Kanaya couldn't do anything further to Jacob. Jacob's willingness to be a clown was more than enough, so Kanaya didn't need anything else.
"When we want to see Om a jogger clown,"tapped one of the boys with his bent face.
"I'm sorry, the clown can't jog" Kanaya said.
The group of children turned around with a sad face, and it made the Clown Om (Jacob) feel unbearable.
"Wait!"the thrill made them turn around and look at Jacob at the same time.
"Om can't dance, but if you teach Om you can," said the man.
The children looked at each other and a smile rose at every corner of their lips. One of the children ran to his parents and asked for a cell phone.
"Om, the music's on Mama's phone...Later Om same friends follow my movement, can you?"said the girl with the phone in her hand.
"Yes agreed. Come on Om our clowns line behind Isyel," said another girl who seems like a friend of the child who will be the jogger.
"Mas, is it really okay?"kanaya asked holding Jacob's arm.
"It's okay, besides, my face is covered in this thick powder so no one will know" Jacob replied, patting Kanaya's arm gently.
Kanaya took a step aside a few steps to let her husband do what he wanted.
"Riko, where are you going? HERE!"
Riko who stood up was taken aback by Jacob's exclamation. It seems Jacob does not want to suffer alone, he invites Riko to feel what he feels.
Although hesitant about her ability, inevitably Riko stepped forward and stood beside Jacob.
The man (Jacob) pats the assistant hard on the shoulder. Then the two faced forward where the children were ready to lead the way of their version of the game.
"Who is everything? I count one to three yes" cried Isyel.
"One..two..three."
The music from the phone was loud and the girl named Isyel began to demonstrate her movements and was followed by all including Jacob and Riko.
Several times Riko and Jacob collided with each other because they were confused with the movement to follow the rhythm of the music.
"To Riko's right, not to his left!"jolt Jacob when again and again his body was hit by Riko.
"Yes sir," replied Riko.
While Kanaya lifted her phone and recorded the action that Jacob had done. Later when her son was born, the woman wanted to tell him how much Jacob loved her to the point of doing anything for her.
"He loves you so much, son," Kanaya said to her son in the womb.
Starting initially hit each other until finally the two men are good at dancing and occasionally laughing loosely.
"You're great, Mas. Want to make the kids happy, "praise Kanaya when their jog is done.
The woman's hand took a handkerchief from her bag and wiped the sweat that soaked Jacob's forehead.
"Om Clown, thank you for our friends" said a child representing his friends.
"Sama-sama," Jacob replied with a big smile.
One by one the children went ahead and crucified Jacob and Kanaya and after that they ran to their parents.
"You why Mas? How do you keep smiling?"cletuk Kanaya in his footsteps.
"It turns out making people happy is fun...I can follow your will and can make the kids happy too" Jacob said.
Seeing the pleasure that Jacob felt also made Kanaya happy. Maybe this is the first time a Jacob has done something like this. Given the background and him in childhood who only went home schooling is certain this will imprint on his memory.
"But...You have to keep paying him, even this has to be bigger, said Jacob who reminded Kanaya of his promise.
"Yes yes, my husband is a calculation of the same wife" said Kanaya with his kekehannya.
"Yes though happy, tired still so there must be a cure for fatigue that is you."
The two cheeks behind the veil were increasingly blushing. Jacob is getting more reliable in making Kanaya blush, the man's mouth is so sweet like honey when dealing with Kanaya.
"Iya-iya Mas,"balas Kanaya.
The two enter their car and drive away from the city park with Riko driving.
***
The next day, at Garadha Group. Riko was in the middle of a mess with her hand holding her phone.
He has gone viral in online news with the tagara 'Assisten Garadha Group Sandai Joget in Taman Kota.'
Videos of him and Jacob dancing also went viral. It's just that Jacob, dressed as a clown, is certainly not recognized.
"Riko, can you sit down and work professionally," cried Jacob who was upset about the behavior of his assistant.
"Sorry Young Master First, I am trying to calm down but the news on social media and videos I have gone viral" said Riko.
Jacob scrunched his forehead and the man grabbed his phone on the table and checked Riko's words.
"You become an artist" Jacob mocked but his tone remained flat.
"Young Master First, this is serious. How would Garadha Group's coworkers view if they knew that the Assistant and the CEO's right hand were dancing out there" Riko told me of the risks that could spill over the company.
"No, we'll just focus on working" Jacob said, causing Riko's body to relax.
