“We did not expect if will meet you here,” greet a man.
“Sorry, did we know each other before?” ask Aditya wonder.
“Oh yes sorry. The four of us are from the army. We came here at the invitation of our subordinate Argawijaya.”
“We have been watching you since the first time you boarded this ship. We seemed to dream of being able to see a person who is very legendary in the military world. That's why we are hesitant to greet you.”
“But after seeing you up close then we are sure if it is Aditya Laksmana, the Death Dagger of the army special forces.”
“You overestimated it. I'm just a useless person who has joined the army,” Aditya replied.
“You are too low commander. We did not expect that even you would be as patient as it was to face insults and insults from those fools,” said a man while pointing at Fred who was agape because he just knew Aditya's true identity.
“I just don't want to look for a commotion here, please don't call me commander. I'm not a soldier anymore.”
“Stay you are a role model for army officers and soldiers. Your greatness in completing each operation is often the discussion and example told by the leaders. Your rank is also higher than ours.”
“But I'm the bad one, now I just want to be an ordinary civilian. Rank as high as anything is no longer useful if it is not so army.”
“You are indeed humble.”
Aditya just smiled. He himself did not expect that his story would be known to the new soldiers like them. But it also brings up his old wounds a little. If his friends were still alive, it was likely that the honor he felt at this moment was more deserving of them.
Hearing Aditya talk with the soldiers made everyone there even more shocked. They did not expect that Aditya was such a great person. Ratna could also only stare at Aditya, her curiosity towards Aditya growing higher. He was eager to find out what Aditya's past was like to be a role model and respected by the soldiers.
“Fred you are the sponsor of this party, why don't you offer them money just so they want you to do it,” whispered friend Fred.
“Stupid you yes, they are soldiers know! Where might want to be bribed only with money,” replied Fred.
“You better apologize to him!” a man's orders while pointing at Fred.
“That's also if you guys want to make peace with us,” other snappy guy.
Fred looks very upset while looking at Aditya, but he realizes he is not able to do anything more to him. He himself felt fear after seeing and hearing his conversation with the four army men.
“I'm really sorry,” Fred said as he bowed.
“The hard!” snarled a man.
“What a foot is not! It was a hard-boiled peg!”
“Basic kid!”
“I'm sorry!” scream Fred.
“Already, I also will not extend this problem,” said Aditya.
“Each him do not insult people at will! I'm really ashamed to have a friend like you Fred,” Ratna said, holding Aditya's hand.
“Thanks yes,” Aditya said to the four men who have helped him. They just smiled while paying their respects to him.
Ratna invites Aditya to see the room on the luxury yacht. Implied the pleasure on Ratna's face when she could be alone with Aditya like that. Aditya himself began to be able to forget the unease in his heart.
They then went up to the second floor, the room there was very spacious. In the room there is a fancy restaurant and also a floor for dancing. Some people were seen enjoying a meal at their table while chatting. Aditya was very surprised because at the end of the room there were several chairs facing the entrance.
“We just eat first yuk,” invite Ratna while sitting in the chair.
“Bby, I have also started to get hungry,” Aditya replied while sitting opposite Ratna.
“What order Mbak, Mas?” asked a servant who deftly approached them immediately. Aditya and Ratna then ordered their own meals. The waiter then left them.
“You should have ordered a lot of Dit, mumpung free,” Ratna said.
“If it is not possible to eat all Rat,” Aditya replied with a smile.
“We are both kayaking again just a date yes,” Ratna said while blushing.
“Dating yes, is it not more fitting to say honeymoon only?”
“Ih, the time is suddenly honeymoon anyway. Wedding first dong.”
“You are Rat, you should be aware of that you are glimpsed a lot by rich men.”
“Well for whatever Dit does, most of their own behavior is bad. If you just see the man of his wealth can be later hurt continue.”
“Btw, you never told me you were in the army?” ask Ratna.
“Yes you yourself never nanya.”
“How do you want it, people I also just found out earlier. You should have just told me straight away. Can you tell me now?”
“I became a soldier also briefly there is nothing I can be proud of, besides more exciting if you are the story about the race you have been following all this time, must be more exciting, more exciting,” replied Aditya trying to divert the conversation. Ratna just fell silent, she thought maybe Aditya had his own reasons for never telling her past as a soldier.
Their orders came brought by the waiter. They then chatted while enjoying the ordered dishes. Suddenly there was a loud sound that was turned on. Then a host appeared while talking on the loudspeaker. Everyone looked towards the end of the room. There seemed to have sat some people who attracted the attention of all the guests.
Fred's family, Diaz's family and Gina's family were there. Frita and Diaz sat side by side, everyone present was clearly stunned to see the beauty of Frita wearing a beautiful dress. Diaz only smiled broadly because she was happy to see the attention of the guests on them.
Aditya stared intently at Frita from a distance. When their gaze met Frita immediately turned her face away or was bowed. The feeling of Aditya again felt slashed to see the woman of his dream was sitting together with others. His gaze began to ponder, Ratna also realized that.
“You why Dit?” ratna asked as she approached her seat with Aditya.
“It's okay Rat, I just feel happy because in the end my boss will be married soon,” Aditya replied slowly.
“Why happy? It's not like you could get fired because he won't need a private driver anymore?”
“Yes most likely I will be fired. But I am happy because in the end I can freely sleep until noon,” Aditya replied with a smile.
“This base of yours,” Ratna said with a small laugh.
Frita who saw their familiarity from a distance just bowed down. The feeling of worry in his heart came back. Somehow the feeling of unwillingness re-emerged in his heart when he saw his savior sitting talking to another woman. Fred's father's voice was loudly speaking as if it was not heard by Frita who was busy with her feelings. The host then handed over the microphone to Diaz.
“Welcome to all attendees, dear invited guests. I thank everyone, especially my friend Fred. Who would invite us to his fancy party. In this moment I want to convey something to everyone present at this luxurious party,” Diaz said with a smile.
Some people suddenly came to bring a table in front of Diaz, on the table there was a black box. Diaz then opened the black box on the table, everyone was shocked and stunned by what they saw.
SERIATE…
