I Hope You're Successful Always

In a huge hall, full of Knox Corp employees. We had a long journey to get to the point now. It is time for the first period of work this time close the book. Me and the other division heads sat in line with the company president. The opening agenda was full of performances from talented employees. A thunderous applause rang throughout the corner of the room.

Until finally arriving at the core of the event, Knox gave his speech and speech. The atmosphere was quiet and we all loved it.

“Thank you to all employees at all levels, we have been through a difficult full period, but in the end we can be at the point now.”

The whole audience applauded. Then he continued his speech. I am proud to work for this company. It appeared to me five years ago when I was registered by my father to this place. Funny to remember meeting Jack for the first time here. Several times I felt nostalgic during the direct inspection to Mennora. Instantly I became homesick after four years of separation from Alya.

“Next, I invite Brother Harry to read the report.”

“Thank you, let me read you the report we have achieved over the past five years. Of course, with the challenges and obstacles we face. Here are everything documented..” He mentions them one by one. Again it reminds us of every step in this company.

After that, the speaker was given to us the division heads to tell us all the experiences we had. Not infrequently the atmosphere is full of laughter. Like the entertainment of the five of us.

“You remember when we were invited by the kingdom? There is one of us who is half conscious,” Cathy said.

“It was once, at that time I realized that being too excited was also not good,” Ryne said. While Pappous just turned his head to the four of us with a sense of innocence. People laughed at his behavior.

“Well this, exactly like this. Oh, there is less ‘bwah bwah bwah..’,” sahutku.

“But I'm not like someone who doesn't understand jokes..” said Pappous with his silly face.

“Wah is just right, like an innocent person in the midst of people's laughter,” continued Lydia with her smile.

“As a little more there will be a heated debate, friends..” Ryne said. Lydia and I looked at each other sharply, eventually laughing together.

“I'm also very lucky to be working here. When I go to work my eyes are always fresh. Isn't that right, guys?” pappous Lontar.

“Betul!” sahut the men.

“So let me give our Queen a title here. Miss Beautiful, Catherine Fournier!”

Everyone applauded and whistled happily. Cathy's face turned red and misbehaved. He looked confused and didn't know what to do. Knox and Harry also joined in.

“Let's hear one or two words from him.”.

“Aaa.. T—Thank you.. thanks... much...” Cathy said nervously. His face and manner like that made the men melt and can not stand.

“Himut...” muttered. He looks like a kid.

“A—I don't know what to say.. Old Grandpa...”. Pappous is becoming. Like a hot worm. Then it becomes semi-conscious, just like when drinking at the time.

“Goddess has come down from heaven.”.

After an unexpected agenda, in the end the speaker was returned to Knox for a closing speech.

“Sekian for the company's five-year anniversary event stands. All your contributions have become a charter to be proud of. It would be an honor to meet you in your next working period. Thank you.”

The claps of applause and cheers shook the entire room. As usual, the event continued with a party together. What was different this time was his place which was in a very spacious hall. We division heads with Knox and Harry back to the back of the hall. We greeted each other and congratulated each other. While a commotion had already sounded from behind this wall.

“Congratulations, congratulations.”

“Thank you.”

Knox and Harry left us. Then we took it for a while to talk.

“How about you guys? Will it stay up?” ask Ryne.

“Of course, nowadays it is difficult to find work,” Cathy replied.

“Sounds like that doesn't apply to you, Beautiful Miss,” chirps Pappous. Cathy became annoyed at him.

“Stop calling me Miss Beautiful! Moreover, earlier, you embarrassed me half to death.” His attitude returned as usual, much different during the event. His face was full of rage. I didn't think that someone could have two very different expressions, like wearing a mask.

“Come... I praise you, you know. Not like a kid there.” This time Lydia's been splashed by Pappous. He was also upset to hear it.

“Don't call me little boy, Old Grandpa! At least I'm more mature than that innocent kid!”

Now it's my turn to get dragged in.

“What do you mean plain boy? At least I have manners unlike yours!”

“Kids now have no courtesy at all to parents,” says Pappous.

“You are not included in it,” Cathy chirped.

“Oh, that means you saw me young, right? You finally realized too, Miss Beautiful.”

The atmosphere here was no different from the atmosphere behind the walls. This place is full of commotion as well. Ryne wants to calm things down, but doesn't know what to do.

“You make no difference to a child. Always noisier,” Ryne said.

We who heard then fell silent and went silent for a moment and looked towards Ryne. His face looked furious but with a different aura. It was like it was making us feel depressed.

“Sorry..” says. Ryne's face is back to normal. He continued the question. “So you all stay here, right?”

“Looks like I won't go ahead,” I replied.

“Eh? Why?” sahut Cathy's.

“I'm going home, my father's job is done here..”.

“Means you're just filling your spare by working here?” continued Lydia.

“Iya.. Forgive me, everyone..”.

“No problem, Young Man. You have done your best here,” Pappous said as he patted my back.

“Tumben once you're like this, Old Grandpa,” Cathy said.

“Why do you stay here? While your family is coming home,” asked Ryne. I looked down and felt bad to say it.

“I think so too, but I have an appointment with my friends.”

“Alright if that's your choice. We won't force you,” Ryne replied.

“I hope you all succeed always,” I added.

“We also wish you all the best.”

Together we went to the hall and followed the party that was going on. Again Pappous immediately took a drink and acted up. I could only shake my head to see it. While Cathy was surrounded by officials, it was certainly mostly men. Lydia is enjoying the food. While Ryne was gathered with servants her age, they looked dignified.

I wandered around while taking a look at the breadth of this hall. A lively and joyful sight I could see before leaving this company. I sighed and became a little moved thinking about it.

“I don't think I could be here..”.

Jack patted my shoulder from behind.

“Only? You're not following?” ask Jack.

“Seeing it has made me happy.”

Jack was confused to see my face that looked moved.

“What's wrong?”

“I'll be back to Mennora..”

“Why? I still want you to work here.”

I explained everything to Jack.

“Alright.. Leave my regards to Alya and the others, yes.”.

“Just relax,” reply me then embrace it. “Thank you for all this.” With a smiling face he also embraced me.

“It is precisely I who should thank you.”

We laughed together too.
