Episode 9

Eventually Rudatin was able to run the school while working which both equally worked out satisfactorily. Datin graduated from High School and wants to continue in the same field as Pras, FEB. He successfully passed the entrance examination selection at the FEB and is currently undergoing ospek. During ospek he took time off from his job, because ospek activities are quite draining and time.

Datin nebeng at his friend's boarding house in Kaliurang behind Gading Mart, because his activities start early in the morning blind, if he departs from Manding must be keteter.

Pras was a 3rd year student at FEB at the time. At this year's ospek, Pras sat in the UGM central committee as the coordinator of events held by the center for joint events or public events with all faculties, such as lectures or general briefings from the vice-rector, as well as public lectures, introduction to the dlsb university environment. So the activities are actually a lot in the center, not in FEB itself.

The last morning Datin did not have time to eat breakfast and last night just ate bread polish bought in Gading mart before entering his friend's boarding house, after mandipun he did not have time to eat directly asleep because he was tired. And after the dawn prayer is already an apple in the courtyard beside Balairung. The morning began with a run around the campus. Datin's empty stomach and shower part that makes him a little dizzy and feverish. Datin's physique is usually strong and tend to be wayward, but this time maybe his biorhythms again fit under accompanied by tiredness, he was also left far from his friend's friend, he fell unconscious in front of the stalls of Sarjito Hospital. The morning situation was still quiet because it was not yet 6.

Not far behind Datin collapsed, out of the car a man helped Datin and taken to IGD Sarjito Hospital. He talked to the guard doctor, such as grumbling that his paniti was not responsible until the members scattered without immediate confirmation.

Datin in the infusion and has begun to awaken, in a semi-conscious condition he called: “mas Pras.....mas Pras yes....???” He saw the man who was talking to the nurse, who looked like he was very similar to Prastowo, only his skin was slightly lighter and his posture was slightly higher. Because in the IGD at that time there was only one man, then he also looked at Datin while smiling : “ Ah you are familiar apparently, my name is Yudistira, you had fainted in front of the car I parked, you were unconscious, then I brought it here.”

Not how long there were 2 ospek committee members from FEB who entered the IGD and asked the members who were careless. They saw Yudhishthira, who was no stranger to them, then they told Yudhishthira: “ Thank you! How can I be early in the morning mas Yudis has arrived here.”

“ Ah yes.... I just dropped my niece who is ospek as well, at Fak Teknik, and all of you wait for this RS to open to take my check-up results, too, ordinary to keep - in case of work requirements. How can this committee be teledor until someone escapes the observation???!” protest, “ Untung Canting this, ..eh sorry it's the name of his ospeknya, cepet siuman. Hahahaha, starving apparently huh?” then Yudistira continued his name: “ Whose name if I may know?”

Datin blushed shyly said hunger, while answering: “ My name is Datin mas. Thanks for the help.”

“ Kok like no stranger to this name yes, Datin ya?” Yudhishthira frowned, hearing his name. Suddenly there was an officer who informed Judis that the administrative office was open, if you want to take the results of check-up he could.

Then Yudishthira handed over Datin's affairs to the ospek committee and he too pamit.

“ Fast healthy yes Canting..eh Datin, next time breakfast first!” the message on the way out.

Datin is not out of thought, he said in this world someone has twins similar to each other which number seven. Yudistira is a lot like Pras, only Pras is more brownish, while Yudistira is light skinned clean. His dressings are more in the style of young executives. As for him, he had begun to be able to remember that as soon as the committee mentioned his nickname with the name of Judis, he immediately remembered that maybe it was Mila's boyfriend, because the two organizers also knew him as his senior.

Datin is indeed the end of this activity is quite solid. If calculated Datin effective sleep only 4 hours a day. Haven't eaten her irregularly. So that is usually physically strong enough, this time tired it accumulates so that it falls also eventually.

Hearing Datin faint, Kamila rushed to the FEB Health room, because Datin after returning from Sarjito Hospital was transited there first. It turns out that Judis just remembered that the name Datin was familiar in the ear because Mila often told her activities with Datin. Then he called Mila.

“ How Tin, have you eaten yet? Here I bring rice cat side dish ceker.” Mila said, bringing angkringan food typical student menu.

“ Waduh, thank you very much mbak, I'm really excited now.” Reply Datin, “ I was in IGD packed with very maniiiis tea with fresh bread jam contents again, continued nausea I did not finish. But the sweet tea that makes the energy recover, but hunger has not lost.” Connect Datin with a grin while starting to eat cat rice from Mila.

“ lha emang lo her father?” sahut Mila was joking, exactly as Pras was worried. Almost Darto nyeleletuk if not stepped on Pras feet.

All have been asked for the last apple to disband at Balairung, the main building of UGM. Pras and Darto are ready to go first, arrived Datin nyeletuk: “ Mbak, was his fiancee mbak Mila who nolong me huh? I just met the first, just now siuman I think mas Pras, I'm embarrassed, have called him to date again, it was wrong.”

“ Uh good! Yes coolan mas Judislah than he.” Seloroh Mila's. Pras nyengir while joking back: “ Aaaaaa..... Mila pura forgot, he sometimes misfocused, stooped me if the booby motor hayoooo, considered mas Yudis? Or your back there is a mas Yudis!” At the same time Judis came in to pick up Mila……….. ” Who's the wrong hug? Don't be on purpose, don't you?” Yudis nimbrung. Yudis has graduated and is taking care of the files needed for work requirements, including the legalization of diplomas and health test results to campus.

“ Tin,...... well this is new mas Yudisku, he said Datin used to only know the name, eee..... even update on IGD, not very tasty ya.”.

Pras looks worried and feels guilty, did not have time to take care of Datin because of busy committee at the center. He forced Datin to want to be escorted home finished ospek this while taking care of his goods from his friend's boarding house. On the way home Pras story: “ Tin, you already know my mother's niece who now lives in my house? He will later change Mbak Rini, because Mbak Rini will not be there again, want to help mas Yudi in his office.”

“ Oh...mbak Rini is not there again dong later? Waaa... the further in my heart the house.” Datin Sahut. About Danu's niece, Datin already knew from her father.

“ Don't dong Tin, do I mean nothing to you?” ask Pras.

“ Aaaah...mas Pras do not need to be spoiled, ngetest nanya who already know the answer. Stale tofu.” Continue to continue... “ But nephew bu Danu is just change the task mbak Rini to?, not change my position?”

Pras stopped his bike to the side, he turned his head back to see Datin's expression that had begun to dare to sneer. Pras throws a smile and a seductive look at Datin, and Datin hides his face against Pras's back. Datin's hand was pulled by Pras, dipped in his waist and he held it continuously while running his bike back. Arriving at Datin's house, Pras took time to chat with Datin's parents for a while, before returning home.

In the 3rd year of Datin lecture, his job position in the Boutique Batik Nusantara became more and more stable. Because of his dedication and good performance, his boss put him into a supervisor and concurrent purchasing department, which is related to suppliers or small entrepreneurs below him. Because Datin mastered the tastes of his customers both domestic and foreign, then he helped provide input for the selection of patterns or motives that again inn sold in Batik Nusantara. Batik Nusantara is a large batik boutique with many branches in Java, which was built with large capital.

While Pras has been a year as a teaching staff at FEB, and is now in preparation to continue his S2 in the UK, namely at the London School of Economy & Political Science in London, or the LSE england. In preparation for going abroad, Datin accompanied the shopping Pras to prepare what would be brought. Pras always involved Darto, his best friend, to help packing at Pras' house, because it was impossible for Datin to do it. While Darto has just completed his bachelor, as a Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering.

During Pras study in the UK, many events experienced by Datin in Yogyakarta. Good and bad events change. Datin devoted his time to study and work. Datin always enjoyed his busy life, which he carried out sincerely, so that time was felt to pass quickly.

In December 1997, the happy month of Kamila's marriage to Yudistira. The wedding was held at the Hyatt Yogya Hotel. Datin stayed at Kamila's house in Palagan 3 days before the event, accompanying Kamila. Datin all-out helped a series of preliminary events at the Palagan home before the ijab and reception in Hyat itself. Kamila's plan would help her husband's efforts to continue the shrimp and lobster farming owned by Yudistira's parents. Yudistira's parents are big and successful businessmen with their pond locations in Surabaya, Semarang and Makassar. They export their crops to several Asian countries, and the largest is to Japan. Its headquarters are in Semarang.

However, things do not always go smoothly as expected. Less than 7 months since the study Pras to the UK, precisely around February 1998, Indonesia or more precisely Asia there was a monetary crisis, which actually had started from Thailand since mid-1997. The monetary crisis in Indonesia peaked in June 1998 and became an economic crisis with the exchange rate of money falling considerably and interest rates becoming unreasonable, reaching 60%/year. This is very influential on the company where Datin works, where Batik Nusantara is mostly capital is from Foreign loans, which are dollars. At the maturity of the debt payment, the value of the dollar is no longer controlled. So that the company became half dying, and tightening like most other companies at that time. Employee working time is rotated to 2 weeks of admission and 2 weeks of leave. Of course followed by a significant salary cut.

While businesses that still look stretched are from the MSME sector or small entrepreneurs who do not need foreign capital loans.

Datin's parents' activities are not too stressful. And enough if just to finance a meal and a simple life as usual, with a little help from Datin.
