Man Seeker Cuan
The Part 19



In the morning after giving news to his mother, he came out of the boarding room and looked over the neighborhood where he lived, the alleys were small and quite seedy. "I think everyone who lives in the city will be cool and advanced. But the view is like in the village." Mumbled.


Then he went out and walked further, but everything seemed equally uninteresting. Only the house is deflated without a yard.


Because the neighborhood had so many alleys and intersections, he had strayed and forgotten which alley he was out of. His curiosity continued to push him forward without noticing the alleys he passed by.


"Dec? Where are you going?" Ask someone who sees him confused.


"I want to go home to alley 27 sir. Which way is yah?"


"Well.it's a 16-deck alley. From here it goes straight. Don't forget to count the gap. Ntar stray again up to alley 32."


"Yes sir. Thanks yeah."


Then he walked straight while counting the alley he passed by in his heart.


"Mmm. Like this alley I passed. Bener. Not wrong anymore. The house and the wall paint are green."


He forgot while counting, someone suddenly invited him to talk so the count was overblown. That person asked him because he was like a lost person.


So as he walked deeper, he could not find his boarding place. His face was getting panicked and scared.


"Sir, what alley is it?" Ask to ventured to someone who was sitting on the porch of his house.


"This is a 32-deck alley. Which alley is it going?"


"27 sir."


"New people here?"


"Yes." Yeah."


"Where from?"


"Medan sir."


"Oh... Yes already. Straight from here."


"Thank you sir."


He immediately went and counted each alley.


By the time he got out of his boarding house, his brother had already left for work. While he can only work 3 days later after meeting the person who will be his superior in a place of worship.


So until the boring 3 days ended, he just stayed in the boarding room and did not dare to go out far again.


As long as there was no income, he and his brother ate potluck with a side dish that was divided in two.

Before the service began, they met each other, and he was told what work he would do.


He just silently listened to everything that the person was talking to him as if he had understood everything.


"But you don't know your way here yet, do you? Later you will be accompanied by old employees during your duty as a courier." Said the man who was watching his face quite burdened.


*******


Then to the next day around 7 am, Indra went to his superior's house because his boss invited him to go together, because he still did not know where the area where he worked.


During entering the various alleys, he marked them, certain places he had passed through in his heart so that he remembered the way home.


For 30 minutes he walked on foot and reached his superior's house with the help of the people he was questioning.


Not waiting for a long time, he and his boss immediately left by car.


Along the way he tried to memorize the name of every road that went so that the next day he could go alone.


Once there, an employee is called in to teach Indra about the work she has to do.


Then the person invites him to pack the items they will send later. Those items are various kinds of vehicle spare parts.


During the training period, the employee always hugged him wherever he delivered goods.


"'Ndra, you hafalin well the streets we passed earlier. Traffic signs must also be obeyed so as not to be ticketed by the police. The goods that we want to deliver are our regular customer orders. So don't be afraid. 'For a long time you will also memorize the path."


"Yes." Yeah." His answer was short because his eyes and mind were fixed on the roads, crowded vehicles, tightly lined buildings, and on tall buildings that were not in his village. Because something high in his village is just the top of the hills lined up in a row.


When they arrived, he himself was told to hand over the item as well as ask for the recipient's signature on the receipt form as well as on the invoice submitted. It was done as an exercise so that he was good at talking to new people.


Because as long as they work together, Indra doesn't talk much. So that the employee thought that he was very shy and not good at talking.


Then after doing so, the employee immediately approached him and checked his work.


"You asked for his signature on the receipt, as well as the invoice, right?"


"Well." yeah."


"Mmm. So every time you drop off stuff, do it like that. Give the copyan invoices not the real ones because they are still in debt. Pay attention to the due date on this invoice. So they'll pay before it's due. Otherwise, they'll be called and billed." Clearly with spirit.


After that they go somewhere else and deliver the same things.


From morning until noon, they only deliver goods to two places that are far apart.


But before returning to work, they stopped at the food stall because it was past lunch and their stomachs were rumbling.


During their meal, the two chatted to get to know each other more closely.
