Magic Lantern

Farewell

Kreshna finally finished his work. To celebrate his farewell back to the headquarters. He held a farewell party at the office.

He organized his farewell party in the office auditorium. Prepare food, drinks and decorations he rented from one of the event organizers he chose. He also prepared his farewell speech.

"Finally, your wish is granted. We'll split up." Sahut Kreshna when they were in his study.

"I didn't mean it that way. I think we both need to live a quiet life. Undergo something different. For each of us's progress."

"What progress? I just want us to take it slow. If one of us finds someone else. Be mature and open. Mate cannot be forced and at that time we may indeed have to separate. Because one of us has found his soul mate."

"Women need certainty. Living an uncertain relationship. It will make me hurt and upset. Don't equate women with men. If you can't give certainty. Fine! But don't give hope as if you can give certainty. I also understand that a soul mate is in God's hands. Can't be forced. We better keep our distance and make friends. A soul mate can meet any path. Not necessarily with dating. Often even those who are dating are hurt. Because her relationship ran aground and her lover married someone else. Keeping someone else's soul mate, the term."

"You're overthinking. Too complicated. Made simple. Enjoy what you can enjoy"

"Please respect. The difference between us. Maybe for you to change pairs of ordinary things. Giving false hope here and there is also common. But you can't force it on anyone else. Especially if they are completely different from you in living their lives."

"I don't want to choose wrong."

"Nobody wants to choose wrong. But what you have to understand. When you've chosen then you must be consistent and consistent."

"I'm not prepared for the consequences and the consistency."

"Therefore we must separate. I don't want to be fucked. Matches, don't worry. Acid in the mountains, salt in the sea. Meet in belanga."

"You think we're pasture cooking?"

Kontan Ratih.

"Can you laugh at this serious problem?"

"I'm sorry, but your words are so funny!"

"You know? If you choose the wrong partner. There could be divorce. Infidelity. Trapped in marriage. Mental pressure."

"you mean? I'll give it up, you make a guinea pig? I don't have a heart? My heart is of stone or iron?"

"That's not what I mean."

"Then what do you mean?"

"I want to make sure there's no doubt."

"If in doubt, what is it for?"

"You don't understand. I don't want us to be apart because there are things that can separate us both later. We have to know whether we can deal with it or not."

"You're so complicated. As long as the partner is loyal and not rude. Then a woman will be able to accompany him until anytime."

"That's different from men. A man's acceptance is limited and they can become unfaithful if they feel uncomfortable or something is troubling in the relationship."

"Then what do you want?"

"My hair is no longer important. I don't want to see you disappointed or upset by uncertainty. What makes you comfortable. I'm comfortable too. What makes you happy. I'm happy too. You want us to split up and leave it all to fate? I'll go your way."

"Thank you for your understanding."

***

Kreshna gave her farewell speech, "It doesn't feel like time is passing so quickly. Thanks to the cooperation of the entire team and staff, our company can develop its wings.  Our company is also experiencing rapid progress due to the cooperation of all of us. I will feel very lost for the times we all worked together. Shoulder to shoulder.  The winning team is us. Not me or you. Good luck always with us."

The clapping rang out. Kreshna throws a smile. The show rolled out one by one. 

The friendly event is the highlight of the whole event. Kreshna ordered fried duck sambal ijo, shrimp balado, beef teriyaki, gado-gado, mushroom tofu and vegetable salty. Not forgetting plus crackers.

Order chocolate and fruit pudding. Chocolate mini cakes, cheese and tiramisu as well as melon, watermelon and pineapple.

Cream soup aspagarus and tomato soup with barquette slices of bread.

Cold mineral water, soft drink and orange juice.

For food saung, order meatballs, siomay, dimsum, mpek-mpek and macaroni schootel.

Krishna walked over to Ratih who was chatting with Diah.

"Maybe ya?" His speech.

"Please, sir. I happen to want a drink." Sahut Diah leaves Ratih and Krishna.

"Your speech is impressive." Praise Ratih.

"Thank you."

"The food is good too. It's like a wedding." Radih.

Kreshna laughed, "We're almost married."

Ratih's face is red like boiled shrimp, "I don't mean to bring up our failed marriage plans."

Kontan broke out his second laugh.

"But the school farewell. Gladi resik?" Ratih spent the rest of his laughter.

"I'm glad to see you laughing."

"Thank you for reducing my mind."

"Yeah! Don't mention it. I will feel lonely wihout you."

"Yeah! Me too's. But we know we have decided something right."

"Yeah! We're cooking the field."

The laughter of both.

"But I don't want the acid. The smell is also sour." 

The laughter broke again.

"The ringing is salty too. Means not in the shackles but in the pants!"

"Hush! Can't be slovenly!" Tegur Ratih but then the two laughed again.

"Udah big time! Cook the recipe like a muluk bocil? Ntar train!"

"Fear of entanglement."

"What sort of a certainty? No need to parno, huh? If the joke is still crisp, parno is forbidden!"

"Where's the rule?"

"From me!"

They laugh back.

"Sir!" Kreshna. Tania. 

The bone white dress wrapped her proportional body. Her face is cute and baby face is like Tintan. The clothes he wore made him look more mature.

"What's wrong?" Ask Kreshna.

"I thank you for joining the company."

"Never mind's. It's no big deal!"

"Thank you for the appointment as a representative of Mr. Pras. Isn't it too fast?"

"Your work is very satisfying. Pras will need you just like I need Ratih. Moreover, I can't accompany you anymore. I have to get back to the center. I leave everything to you two to continue."

"Frankly I was very flattered because I just got accepted to work."

"The job of qualifying is not long or short. Don't go overboard. You got the job because your qualifications were none other than her. I want this company to grow fast and the results of our hard work are not in vain."

"I'll keep your trust."

Kreshna nodded his head.

"I just want to convey that. Goodbye sir, good luck always with you."

"Thank you, Tania."

"I'll excuse you, sir. Take a drink."

"Please!"

Tania passed from before them.

"Tania beautiful, sweet, cute and baby face. Very competent in his work. Perfect match! "Praise Ratih.

"Aren't you insecured?" Kreshna.

"Once insecured? Can't you praise?"

"Muji-muji why?"

"Why can't you praise me?"

"How about changing the topic?"

"Emang why?"

"Fear of rupturing boils."

The people back laughing.
