Kartika Family

A colourful dinner

the sun gradually left its complaints, now the moon began to change its role in decorating the days of humans in the world.

I also prepared myself for dinner on our yacht, finished my dress up and did not forget I changed into a more casual one.

right on the first floor deck there is a large dining room with classic European style, the place is very comfortable and makes the mood of anyone who is there will feel filled again.

" good evening young lady "greet assistant Liu with a sweet smile typical of her.

" good evening is also Liu's assistant." I replied as I looked around the dining room which was very large and looked so luxurious.

assistant Liu allowed myself to sit in the front seat.

I put down my golden device and took the roll of aprons that were already available on my plate.

as soon as I sat down, the waiters served the food that had been cooked by our personal chef.

" please taste Miss Kartika." continued the waiter while giving the plate and with appetizing opening menu.

I immediately tasted the food that was in front of my dining table.

the appetizers I tasted were very appetizing to me, plus from this afternoon I had not eaten a heavy meal.

after I finished eating the appetizer, it was now the turn of the main menu on my dining table.

I saw that Liu's assistant just stood up and watched carefully the dishes they served me,

" helper Liu.."

" let's sit with me. We have a meal together today." I continued, inviting you to sit in the right seat.

" ti__no thanks young lady." replied assistant Liu as she lowered her head in slight embarrassment.

I realized that Liu's assistant continued to perform her surveillance duties and often neglected herself.

" you know right if I never accept Liu's assistant's refusal..??" keep me straight again.

assistant Liu seemed to be hesitant with my orders.

" come on...!!" keep me on stricter.

by having Liu's assistant comply with this small request of mine.

as soon as Liu's assistant sat down beside me, the servants prepared the dinnerware for her.

" helper Liu..?" I said, which made assistant Liu turn towards me

" yes, young lady..?? " continue assistant Liu, now he has also got the opening menu that I had tasted.

" why does this big space feel so quiet, huh..??" connect me while looking towards Liu's assistant.

" that's because we're the only ones sailing young lady." she continued with a sweet smile typical of her.

" hhh..."

" i have an idea..!!" I quickly shouted, assistant Liu only listened to what would be ordered again to him.

" there's something I can help you with again, miss." Liu's assistant continued enthusiastically.

" he_em.." I nodded.

" assistant Liu.., if you don't bother me, you can ask for help to call the captain, the pilot and the staff to dinner together." I asked Liu's assistant enthusiastically.

she looked carefully at me as if waiting for my next assignment.

" well I understand the young lady." she replied as she stood up hurriedly making the sound of the bench slipping violently.

" help Liu is here." I asked

" you can ask them for help." I continued while looking at the waiters who lined up close to the mini bar.

" oh yes.., good young lady" he replied as he sat back in his chair.

assistant Liu called one of the staff to approach her, soon after that one staff came to Liu's assistant

" please call the captain and pilot of the helicopter to eat together" Liu's assistant ordered to the staff who approached him.

" just tell me if the order is from Miss Kartika" I continued again towards the female staff.

" well miss Kartika." replied the staff seriously.

not so long after that the captain of the ship and the helicopter pilot came to the dining room in the middle earlier.

I'm allowing the captain and the pilot to take the vacant seats available.

" the staff and the chef also please join us.." I told the cruise ship staff.

" well miss Kartika.." connect them compact.

the dining room that was once quiet, now feels crowded with cruise ship staff joking and chatting.

laughter makes this room more alive and more colorful, things I rarely feel when in the Kartika family mansion.

...* * *...

" lords, thank you for dinner..."

" i asked permission to return to my resting place" I continued to the staff.

" well Miss Kartika.." they answered compactly, they stood up and invited me back to my room.

I gradually left the dining room and immediately headed to the room on the second floor deck.

the glittering lights that our ship was lighting looked so elegant from a distance, that it amazed the eyes that saw our ship.

after arriving in the main room, I also laid my body onto a soft mattress that was in the main room.

our ship is maintained with the maximum although there is rarely a family of Kartika who visited it.

it is all thanks to the dedication of the staff who never complain and are always professional in their work.

...* * *...

before going to bed I had time to see my device.I saw various kinds of chat that entered from my High School friends who were in Bogor.

tumben they chat

🤔

while standing up, I reply one by one chat they sent to my number, most of them ask me where I am now.not least one of my good friends named Natasha.

📨 "why Nat..??" reply to my chat to Natasya. after reading suddenly there is a call coming into my device.

damn it kid...

😑

I was annoyed as I slid the green icon on my screen

📞 " yes helloo...?!"

📞 "why are you Nat..?!" answered me in a flat and cold tone, while walking towards the bed I received a call from Natasya.

📞 "you where is Marischka stupid..??" ask Natasha from the other side of my device.

📞 "i'm on holiday in Bali now..!!"

📞 "what business...??" ask me back. now I answer with a flatter that makes Natasha a little annoyed.

📞 "emm...?!" muttered Natasya from behind the phone. Before she started talking, I quickly guessed her wish to call me

📞 "don't you tell me if this is about guys huh Nat..!?"

📞 "lazy I heard it...!!" seruku who is now sleeping on my bedroom mattress.

📞 "you know for yourself that if I call you there must be something to do with my guy named Ega," continued Natasya again, this time he sounded more serious.

gee whiz...

😑

📞 " ouch...!!"

📞 "i don't have time to take care of your romance Nat...!!" I said in a more assertive tone and sounded a little emotional.

📞 "please...., help me Marischka..!!"

" it's only you that I complain." continued Natasya this time sound more hoarse voice.

📞 "buset...!!"

📞 "you think I'm God Nat..?!" I replied with a slight annoyance.This time I was more serious in responding to his complaint.

📞 "excuse me Marischka...!?" connect Natasya with a voice full of sadness.

📞 "okelly..."

📞 "but don't blame me if I fall asleep later Nat.." continued me again.

📞 "haahhh...??!" natasya answered with an unaccepted voice.

📞 "you think my business only heard your curses...??" I said it quickly.

📞 "okay..."

📞 "if you want to listen to my vent, I'm happy...!" natasha from behind the phone.

I also want to not have to hear the chat that is not too important. I patiently heard the words from Natasha, mostly confiding about her guy who was caught cheating.

like a great storyteller, without feeling I was asleep.
