CHAPTER 3. First Day of Work

After doing the dawn prayer, Nadia rushed to the kitchen to help Old Mak and Bik Sari prepare breakfast for Young Master and Big Master.

"Assalamualaikum.." said a man kindly to Nadia, Old Mak and Bik Sari.

"This must be Nadia? meet Abang Thamrin, the therapist of the Big Master" he said introducing himself to Nadia.

"Call Diah aja Bang to be familiar" said Nadia also while returning greetings from Thamrin.

Bang Sugi and Mr. Rital also sat at the round dining table on the edge of the kitchen and were ready to enjoy breakfast together.

The first rule in this house is that they all have to have breakfast together on time at 7.00 wib before the Young Master and the Big Master have breakfast at 08.30 am.

Breakfast together became their morning ritual to gather, and, joking and sharing stories together at a round dining table that is provided for the workers in this luxurious house before all in busy with their respective jobs.

While the Great Lord and the Young Master will have breakfast at the main dining table located at the front of the clean kitchen overlooking the outdoor swimming pool.

After breakfast, the Old Man prepares a warm bread that has been baked in the toast, then given butter jam and sprinkled with sugar on the top.

"This is breakfast for the Young Master" said Old Man showing two loaves of bread that had been arranged on a plate with a bitter cup of coffee.

"And this is Big Master's breakfast" he said, showing a bowl of oatmeal porridge with a fresh fruit top and a glass of low-calorie sweet warm tea.

Nadia then nodded in understanding.

"Every day this breakfast is with Mak?" ask Nadia again to Old Mak.

Old Man nodded slowly.

"Young Master is very thorough about food. He is a very health-care person. Especially since the Great Lord got a Stroke, the Young Master is getting active in maintaining health. This morning, he was exercising in the upper room. Diah has never been upstairs ye?" tanya Mak Tua to Nadia with her malay accent.

Nadia shakes.

"If so go upstairs. The room on the left is the Young Master's room next to which there is a fitness room. While the room on the right was the room of the Great Lord. Go upstairs and meet the great sir!" Say Old Man again to Nadia.

"Can Mak?" nadia asked fearfully.

"Can.. Go away." replied Old Man again.

Nadia nodded then walked slowly towards the stairs which were a bit winding.

Step by step Nadia climbed the stairs while paying attention to some fairly large photos displayed neatly on the staircase wall.

"This must be the big family of the Big Master" said Nadia when she saw the photo of the Big Master with the Young Master and the Grand Madam who looked so beautiful and graceful.

"Young Master looked very handsome when he was young.. Until now anyway.. Even though she is old.." Nadia said again in her heart when she saw the photo of Young Master when she was in High School with a boy who might just be her friend.

"Young Master is married? But where's his wife? is he dead?" nadia asked when she saw the photo of Tuan Muda wearing Malay traditional clothes with a woman who looked very beautiful and graceful.

"Further studying in Australia" Sounded the heavy voice of the Young Master as if he knew the question that Nadia was thinking when she saw the picture.

Nadia was shocked and immediately lowered her head.

"Sorry sir." said Nadia briefly.

"No problem" he replied again, then immediately went down the stairs and left Nadia who was bowed stiffly.

"Assalamualaikum" Nadia said as she knocked on the door of the Great Lord's room.

"Come in" came the voice of Brother Thamrin answering from the room

Nadia opened the room door slowly.

"What's the big man?" tanya Nadia saw Abang Thamrin massaging Datuk Iskandar's legs slowly.

"Again in therapy so that it can go again." replied Datuk Iskandar first before Bang Thamrin replied.

"Of we go down to breakfast.I'm hungry.." he said again took Nadia and Bang Thamrin down for breakfast.

"Diah please bring Big Master breakfast... Brother wants to clean up the equipment for a moment" said Bang Thamrin also to Nadia.

Diah nodded and immediately pushed down Datuk Iskandar's wheelchair.

"How do we get down these stairs, sir? Diah doesn't dare.. Afraid that you might fall.." Nadia said as they arrived in front of the descending stairs.

Datuk Iskandar laughed at Nadia's innocent speech.

Then with his right finger he pointed towards the elevator door which was located right on the right side of the stairs.

"Masyaallah.this house there is an elevator like her.Excellent sophisticated is indeed the house of this Great Lord.. Sorry Mister.. Diah didn't see that.." He felt stupid in front of his boss.

Datuk Iskandar just smiled and nodded at Diah's innocent behavior.

Arriving at the dining table, Young Master was already waiting for the Great Lord to have breakfast together.

"Good Morning Pa" he said as he took over the Big Lord's wheelchair from Nadia's hands.

"Dearly morning." replied the Great Master while smiling kindly at his son.

Nadia stood rigidly behind the Great Lord and Young Master who were busy eating breakfast while telling stories about the development of their business.

"Diah.. Let's here.." Datuk Iskandar called Nadia.

Nadia approached and lowered her head to look at the floor.

"Diah.no need to be too rigid on Datuk and Rafiq. Diah works here is to be a friend of Datuk so as not to get too bored with the state of this house.. Diah received because said Sugi Diah a jolly and quite chatty child. So it doesn't suck to be too stiff like that ye.." Said the Great Lord to Diah who was still bowed in shame.

"Good Lord" replied Diah briefly.

"Paggil only Datuk. and call Rafiq with Mr. Cik.. Let's get more familiar. Okay..?!!" Said the Great Lord Again to Diah.

"Good Sir.. Eh. Diah meant well Tuk." replied Nadia still stammered and Stiff.

Datuk Iskandar also laughed again at Nadia's behavior was very rigid.

The Young Master then decided to leave for work with the Great Lord after finishing his breakfast.

He left without saying hello or looking at Nadia in the slightest.

"He's too cold for me to call Mr. Big Brother, and all I have to thank is that I became the kindly Great Lord nurse, Not the very proud Nurse of his son.. " nadia said in her heart.
