Love for the Mentari

Pencak Silat

Going down the beach like this amazes me with the scenery I see. This afternoon the sky looks reddish orange, the sun is slowly lost swallowed by the horizon at the end there. The sound of slow waves makes the atmosphere around look sad.

Why did I realize there was such a beautiful sight here. Every day I work like a robot. Come to the office, work and go home. Every day, it's so boring. I stared at the darkening sky little by little. My hands were getting busy holding the hat I was wearing. The slightly strong sea breeze was playing around with my hair strands, a while later I continued my journey.

I went through a small hallway next to the restaurant and entered through a side door that went straight to the kitchen. This afternoon as I could see on the way here, the restaurant was bustling. Maybe because this is a high season, tourists who come are of course more than usual days. I saw Mr. Sugi, his assistant and a chef talking about something with a tense face.

Their heads automatically turned their heads as I entered and passed them. Mr. Sugi and Chef's faces wrinkled to look at me. Mr. Doni just hurriedly approached me.

"Night Miss Riri" Mr. Doni greeted and immediately approached me

"Night sir, Mmm sorry today I accidentally passed behind... " I said slowly hanging, I hope Mr. Doni understands my situation.

"Through here ma'am, please" said Mr. Doni showed me the same door where I entered earlier. Then he let me go straight up to the second floor through the iron stairs attached to the kitchen wall.

"Bu Riri, every day here just go up well do not have to go through the kitchen again. Mr. Sugi is very disciplined for the rules that have been set. In addition to those concerned are prohibited from entering there" said pak Doni clearly.

"Well sir" I said briefly

I took my place at a table containing a computer and went straight to work. Mr. Doni seems to be out when I'm busy with my work. Moments later Mr. Sugi walked into the room without me noticing and stood behind me for quite a while.

The desk where I worked turned my back to the entrance, it was only natural that I did not know anyone entering or exiting while concentrating.

"Hmm night Miss Riri" She called beside me with a heavy voice, which of course surprised me and was able to make me jump from my seat. My hands reflexively held his hands and arms quite tightly, just like holding the person who was about to make a surprise attack on me.

Mr. Sugi's face looked shocked, and I hurriedly let go of my hand when I realized the person turned out to be Mr. Sugi.

"Sorry sir I'm shocked" I said flatly as I tried to calm myself down. I set my breath back. "God almost twisted his hand, ever since I was haunted by that nightmare I became more and more alert. Shit!!" I grumbled to myself in my heart

"It's okay, I'm wrong to surprise you who are busy. By the way it was pencak silat horses right?" ask her with a curious face.

"Hmm Iyah sir" I nagged not knowing what else to say.

"Since when can pencak silat? I used to be a taekwondo athlete" he said later.

"That's why I feel like Mr. Sugi is excited about this. I better not talk about it any further. I don't want him to know anything about me." I thought in my heart

"Oh yes, I have seen. Good, I have chosen 2 of the three concepts you sent. This one's the same one" his hand pointed to the LCD screen of the computer that was in front of me.

"So which of these two is your choice?" I looked at him

" The number three seems more interesting, what do you think?" Mr. Sugi's turn is looking at me

"I agree sir, who will be the graphic design sir? Staff at headquarters huh?"

"Dad all the business of brochures, advertisements, and so on is directly done at the headquarters" he replied quickly while returning to his desk. "Which media has responded from the list that I agree with Ma'am?"

"Everyone responded well, sir, because I said I got a recommendation from PR Hotel Z. Maybe Mr. Sugi has not read the last email I sent, they provide good prices for advertising including maybe some free release bonuses. In the next few days there will be a lot of calls coming into me. Most likely they will visit here one by one, the fastest usually starts from the media in this city"

Mr. Sugi was seen listening to what I was talking about well. It was seen from the look of his relaxed face.

"I will meet them, after my schedule, Miss Riri can contact Mr. Doni. I'll send the number in a minute" he replied again, typing something on his laptop.

"Well sir, I'll say later, I'm not in place. By reason of media call to another city. So I diverted to meet Mr. Sugi through the assistant father, is that right sir?" I asked to convince you back

"Truly ma'am. Regarding the concept of advertising that we just talked about already I sent to the staff at the center. Later if it is the result I send to Bu Riri"

"Okay sir, then I'm done with my work today" I tidied up my agenda book and my phone on the table.

"Mom Riri has dinner? If not yet how about we just together below?, I briefly call down first" Mr. Sugi lifted the phone handle and pressed the internal number.

I who wanted to reject him could only open my mouth without being able to bring out words of rejection.

"Sir Doni, I booked a table for two people, prepare a special menu today" he said by phone, I saw Mr. Sugi hanging up the phone on his desk quickly. I wasn't even given a chance to answer her question.

"All right, let Miss Riri know how the service is here. I will be able to give feedback to me. Let's go down" He continued, and then stood walking ahead of me out of the room.

I can only sigh at "ck! Yes, it's just dinner Ri. So there's nothing to lose either" I bathed myself as I walked out of the room following Mr. Sugi.

The restaurant situation was crowded when I went down, I saw Mr. Sugi heading to the outside table in the back facing the beach. I went there at a quick pace.
