Kartika Family

Kartika Family
Marischka Kartika's



" let's young miss.." take assistant Liu with his hospitality and sweet smile.


" well.." so I'll be quick.


I climbed up the red-carpeted staircase, assistant Liu following me from behind carrying a black tote bag.


before entering the cabin of the plane I took the time to greet the pilots who were hired specifically by the Kartika family.


" good afternoon captain.." greet me while shaking hands towards the captain and co-pilot


" hh.h., good afternoon Miss Kartika, too" replied the pilot and co-pilot with a smile as she returned my handshake.


" so how's the weather today capt..??" just keep me on the side.


" nice.., good..," continued the pilot with a sign that everything was fine.


" maybe there are no obstacles ya capt.." exclaimed me in a joking tone.


" oh, of course, God willing, everything will be fine" the pilot reassured with a small laugh.


our family choice pilots are not just picky and playful, the Kartika family choice pilots already have flight hours that are above average.


" i'll let you in first!" I continued by pointing to the passenger cabin behind me.


" oh yes please miss Kartika.., 'enjoy the flight, "continue the pilot with a laugh.


" of course capt.." keep me up again.


...* * *...


entering the cabin, I immediately placed my body in a large chair close to the window.


I kept the red tote bag that I was holding on the small table next to the big chair I was sitting in.


not so long ago a private plane belonging to my family slowly took off leaving Halim Perdanakusuma airport.


I was just sitting in that soft seat as the plane started taking off from Jakarta.


" welcome young lady Marischka Kartika.."


" here the captain reports if the altitude is safe.."


" the weather from Jakarta to Denpasar in a sunny state, and will be taken with approximately 2 to 3 hours..."


" please the flight, Miss Marischka.."


hearing the pilot's explanation I felt more relaxed.I saw the sky was so bright and not too cloudy.


arriving at a safe height, I went to the back to change my school uniform and equipment with the clothes provided by the head of our house assistant.


everything I need on my way out of town is always ready before I ask for it.


oh yeah, you must be wondering who the hell I really am, or how the hell my face..


...* * *...


okeh...


I tell you a little about who I am.


my name is Marischka Kartika, I am now only 16 years old, with a height of approximately 170 cm,


my pretty face is typical of French-Indonesian blaster people (not pure Indonesia anyway, because my late mother still has her blaster as well.).


my father was from France, he was a young businessman who was quite famous at that time in France.


while my mother is from Indonesia, my mother is a pure descendant and the right holder of the Kartika family leadership.


in the business world this makes my mother and father met.


back to topic...


with blonde hair along my favorite back, it would make anyone who saw me think that I was an international model.


I attended one of my favorite public high schools in Bogor, my school is located not far from our family mansion in Bogor city


why did I choose to go to school in Indonesia?? anyway with the power and wealth of the Kartika family I could have easily schooled abroad.


again because of the rules of our great-grandfather, schools abroad are not allowed in the Kartika family.


Although I attended school like any other normal child, I also attended various schools and private classes to develop my potential to the maximum.


...* * *...


in our family, someone will debut in our large company and have the right to control the family business by the time they are twenty-five to thirty years old.


after that we will hold the full throne of the Kartika family in forty years.


then at the age of fifty-five will be replaced with the son or daughter of his legitimate successor.


the pattern will rotate continuously, because it will guarantee new ideas and make more advanced efforts and influence of the Kartika family among the world nobility.


our family leaders, who are no longer chairman, will remain part of the management and will be in charge of overseeing the successors.


in addition, they are also given the responsibility to educate their grandchildren or great-grandchildren so that they are worthy to lead the Kartika family.


...* * *...


yep...


that's the rules of the Kartika family a little complicated and convoluted.


back to me again.


the beautiful face attached to me also often made the male friends in my school become interested and want to approach me in various ways.


many have expressed their feelings for me, but for me love is a child's play that will only hinder my development.


back to the story..


after I finished cleaning myself and changed clothes, I returned to the seat in the middle of the cabin.


I opened my red tote bag again and I took the report paper I had brought.


assistant Liu who knew her young lady had returned to sit on the chair earlier, then she immediately occupied the long sofa beside me.


by venturing in, Liu's assistant took a look at our hotel's financial statements.


"can I help young lady..?" asked Liu's assistant in a curious tone,


while also paying attention with a little curious report paper that I hold.


I continued to pay attention to the report paper, unaware that there was an assistant Liu already sitting beside me.


" young lady..?" again, Liu's assistant realized that I did not pay attention to her and focused more on the sheet..


I noticed that there was a gaffe on the financial statement paper, I slowly passed the awkward paper over to Liu's assistant.


" let's see Liu's assistant." I said as I pointed out an awkward nominal in the hotel's financial statements that I held and immediately showed the paper to Liu's assistant.


with a little look up he tried to look at the sheet of paper and pay attention to the numbers I pointed out earlier.


" why is there such a strange number here young lady..??" assistant Liu asked in astonishment.


"that's it.." I replied while looking seriously at assistant Liu.


"then when we get to Bali we stop by the Ubud branch first." I replied firmly as I gave the papers to Liu's assistant


With full focus Liu's assistant paid attention to the troubled report


" it seems that something is not right young lady." continued assistant Liu enthusiastically and full of curiosity.


after finishing with his curiosity, Liu's assistant gave the paper back to me.


" let's see what game they're going to play." I continued enthusiastically.


I immediately tidied up the papers and put them back in my red tote bag.


seeing my enthusiasm, Liu's assistant also grew impatient to get to Bali soon
