Ghost Restaurant

First Day of Work

Yumna started the motor matic, towards the European-style building that he had visited yesterday.

Along the way he sees some ghosts talking about the restaurant. There was even a ghost wrapped in a white cloth, with a tie over his head, asking for a same-sex date. They were seen jumping together all the way.

"Ah, ghosts have a partner. Cook me lose anyway? Singles from birth! Until I've never felt what kind of courtship is?" muttered Yumna was riding her motorbike.

"Think what the hell? Cook should envy such creatures! Yumna's spirit, what matters now is grandma's health!!" yumna muttered to herself.

Actually, it's not too far from home. But due to the opposite direction to the road leading to the city, making the entire journey very deserted of humans. It also has to pass through the thickets first before reaching the old building.

"Mahooowww! I came here" said Yumna after arriving in front of the restaurant building, at exactly eleven o'clock in the evening.

From far behind, it appears that several creatures of various shapes are starting to arrive. He kept trying to strengthen his heart, in order to work and get a wage for his grandmother's expenses.

'Kriieeeeee......'

The sound of the door was heard again, after it opened itself.

"Haaaallooouuuw," said Yumna, shouting slightly.

"Okay, don't shout also horrified" said Rey from behind him.

"Lhoh, you got in the car? There's car leasing too in the ghost world huh?" yumna asked innocently, because she had only seen it first.

"Heh, be careful when you say that. If the boss is angry, more horrified than your ghost! How to know the boss with leasing, because the money will never run out seven derivatives," said Shema from behind me while closing the door again.

"Ma... Meanin? Boss sir isn't a ghost?" yumna asked as she pointed at the handsome boss before her.

"Anyway by the way!" said Rey briefly, then went towards the kitchen to prepare everything.

"That's how the horns look when they get angry!" sahut Jodi who has appeared beside me.

"Kok I don't see he's got horns huh? What kind of ghost is he? That buffalo or that cow?" yumna asked plainly and made the two ghosts pat her own eel.

"That's just a parable, beautiful. Mr. Boss is human, just like you," said Boni who came back by through the kitchen wall.

"Boni, what are you doing? He said I was the most beautiful!" sumpul Shema did not accept.

"That's the most beautiful Shema here. Uh, but really the human boss? Why would he set up a ghost restaurant?" yumna asked still not convinced.

"Ehem... Ehem.... Time for work, it should be opened soon. There are many people out front!" rey's orders are to be seen from the connecting window of the kitchen and the booking table.

"Haven't I told you I don't want to work yet, how come I've been told to work?" tanya Yumna pretended to sell expensively.

"Go home if you don't want to!" rey's getting a little shitty.

"Okay, I work here. But I'm asking what's my salary upfront?" tanya Yumna gave the conditions.

"Now your salary! Work Quick!" suhut Rey throws a brown envelope filled with money on the booking table.

Yumna took the money, even though her boss's treatment was so annoying. But after calculating the amount of money, he was so eager to do his job.

Moments later, a wall clock bell sounded showing twelve o'clock in the evening. The door also opens by itself.

Many strange-faced creatures filled the chairs in the restaurant room. Yumna and Shema are racing to fill all the tables with special dishes today. Meat steaks with barbeque sauce are served at all tables.

While the boss and Boni cook in the kitchen. Jodi arranges a garrison at the booking table, to be handed over directly to Shema and Yumna as his servants.

All the ghosts seemed to enjoy the dish today, including a pair of lovers wrapped in white cloth who had met Yumna on the street.

It didn't feel like two hours had passed, and the ghosts started to leave one by one. Yumna and Shema rushed to clean the table, and brought the dirty dishes to the laundry that Jodi had there.

All clean up according to each task, which has been arranged by Rey as her boss.

"No, there must be something like that. That's why we need your help for that kind of thing!" sahut Shema pointed to the ghost of a small child squatting in the outer corner of the building.

Yumna, Shema, and Rey approach the little girl. A child with multiple cigarette flame wounds all over his body. Even a long cut to his neck.

"Sir, can you help me?" ask Rey to approach him.

"Mama, I want mamaaa.

"Where's mom?" tanya Yumna came closer, while Shema went back to work cleaning up the rest.

"Mamaaa." cried the boy, crying, without being able to show the whereabouts of the person he was looking for.

"Just come, you go with brother first. Tomorrow we'll find your mama!" said Rey softly, and had made Yumna amazed.

"Who's the pretty girl?" ask Yumna.

"My name is Risma, hu.hu.hu.

"For this time, I'll take her home. But you're gonna have to help me find her mom tomorrow!" rey said firmly.

"Taa... Tapii...if at night how to look for it?" yumna asked a little nervously in fear.

"Tomorrow after school!"

"Lhoh, yesterday you just said my work hours were 2 hours at the restaurant?" sahut Yumna.

"Relax, I'll pay you overtime!" rey again.

"Sip if so, I agree!" yumna shouted intending to turn her hand to Rey to be held as a sign of approval, but there was no reply from her.

"Tomorrow after school, I'll pick you up! At Marga Utama school, right?"

"Where do you know? Well, maybe you've already spied on me, huh?" chirp Yumna who got no reply, and instead left away by Rey.

His watch was showing at half-three in the morning as he went to go home. But luckily it didn't take long for Yumna to get home.

Less than ten minutes, the trip was passed by riding a motorcycle owned by Bu Nuri. Maybe if you walk, Yumna takes half an hour and can step on the yard again.

"Aaahhh, a pretty tiring job even for a little while," muttered Yumna herself as she laid herself on her old bed.

It doesn't take long for him to fall asleep soon. Entering a dream world that is very comfortable at night.

'Krieiii.ggg..........'

The alarm sounds loud. Yumna eagerly visited her grandmother for a while before leaving for school. Although the location of the hospital makes it rotate to go to school later.

"Morning, grandma!" sahut Yumna was excited when he saw his grandmother who could already half-sit, despite leaning back with a pillow behind his back.

"Morning, what a spirit Yumna?" tanya bu Nuri who welcomed Yumna's hand-holding, to be kissed on the back of her hand.
