My Boss is a Proud One

Night market

Sofi came back to Anita in front of the stage.

"What does your boss call you, Sof."

"That's nothing, just an opinion."

I better not tell you first that Arka's boss is taking me to dinner. I'll be ledekin Anita.

"Hey why bengong," exclaimed Anita.

"It's okay, let's go home Nit's already noon as Ara must be waiting for me."

They both went back to their respective destinations. Along the way Sofi thought of her boss's invitation to dinner. He planned to show a place that his boss would never visit.

Arriving in the alley

Sofi got down from the angkot and walked towards the house. He saw Ara sitting on the terrace folding the clothes that had just been taken from the clothesline.

"Duh duh duh, diligent virgin this one," exclaimed Sofi who sat beside Ara while fixing her hair pigtails.

"Ka Sofi tumben lama usually if maen a while, from anywhere."

"Ahh, has Pinter introgated huh? Anita took her sister to the park. Ehh there instead met the boss of Arka and his assistant horror. Hah they both always haunt me."

"Try if Ara knows Sofi's brother to the park, surely Ara susulin. I haven't been there for a long time."

"Hey just calm down later if you have another work holiday brother ajakin to go there. Don't pout, honey?" goda Sofi on Ara while pinching Ara's cheek that looks like a bakpou.

Sofi approached Ara and tidied up her sister's hair with her hands, and braided her into two halves. Ara's hair is straight and long so it's easy to manage.

"It's over, okay? this looks more presentable. You girls have to be good at tidying up hair, understand not."

"Ahh ready boss."

Tiyas' mother opened the door of the house, glanced briefly at Ara and Sofi then she passed away somewhere. Her dress was a little menor, carrying a small bag slammed into her body with a watch attached to her hand.

Pity father why get a substitute mother like Tiyas' mother who only concerned about her own affairs. A soul mate no one knows, Sofi murmured in her heart.

Sofi enters the house leaving Ara who is still busy with her work. He went straight into the room and laid his body on the bed, took his cellphone in the bag and checked the incoming message. Two messages came in from Anita and her boss, she immediately opened them.

Wa of Anita

Anita: Sof I've reached kosan.

Sofi: Yes Nit, I have also reached home.

Wa of Ark

Arka: Don't forget that tonight I pick up at half-eight, you should be ready. Don't make me wait!

Sally: Yeah, okay.

"Huh," After replying to their message, Sofi put her phone next to her.

He closed his eyes and dissolved in his dream.

"Tok tok, ka Sofi." Ara's voice called out to her but there was no answer. Ara also opened the door of her brother's room that was not in the key. She saw her brother fall asleep in bed and did not dare to disturb her. Ara closed the door to Sofi's room. He went back to the dining table.

"Where's your Sofi brother Ra, he didn't eat?"

"Sofi's sister slept well. Ara didn't dare wake her, sister Sofi just came home."

"Oh yeah, we'll eat first."

Ara, Vina and Dika nodded. They had lunch together without Sofi and Bu Tiyas.

The clock shows at 7 p.m. Sofi prepares to go to dinner with Arka. She wears ordinary casual clothes because of the place she wants to visit ordinary public places so it does not require a beautiful dress like in a fairyland.

Ting tong, the house bell rang. Sofi exited the room and opened the door. He saw a man he knew wearing jeans and a blue shirt made him look more handsome. Sofi was surprised and stunned to see Arka's appearance.

"Hey what are you looking at! why glare like that, scaring me. You're not ready what time is it?"

"Yes, I was just surprised to see the boss. Usually wear a suit. Now it's a lot different, it looks younger, hehe..."

"You mean all this time I look old."

"Not really, I didn't say the boss looked old."

"Ahh come on, that's why you're not ready. See what time it is," cried Arka.

"I'm ready, let's go." Sofi closed the door and pulled the hand of her boss. Without realizing it Arka smiled to see Sofi who was holding her hand. After reaching the front of the road, Sofi only realized from earlier holding the hand of her boss.

"I'm sorry, I was accidentally boss." Sofi looked down apologizing to Arka.

"Take a chance in narrowness," said Arka as she slightly raised her smile and fixed her watch to slide after Sofi let go of her hand.

Arka got into the car, this time he brought his own car without Rama.

Tumben the horror did not come. Usually they are always inseparable.

"Hurry in!" arka exclaimed from the car.

Sofi immediately opened the door and got into the car. Arka drove his car at a moderate speed. He asked Sofi where she was going.

Sofi shows the direction of the road to a place that Sofi wants to show Arka. It didn't take long, Sofi told Arka to stop her car in a large field. There were many people entering the field. Arka wonder why it is not a place to eat like a restaurant or cafe even a field and many people crowded in line at a counter.

"Hah, it finally arrived, too," said Sofi.

"See, what place is this and why you brought me here. Don't we want dinner?"

Sofi smiled and did not answer Arka's question, she got out of the car and breathed in the cool night air.

"Let's get the boss down here, we go inside."

Arka opened the car door and got off. He approached Sofi.

"What place is this?"

"It's the boss' night market, inside it's a comedy swivel. Look at the people lining up tickets there to get inside."

Sofi saw a grilled corn seller, he invited Arka to eat grilled corn. Arka just obeyed him without protest.

Seeing you so happy, I'm so happy Sof. I don't really like places like this. But what's wrong with trying, it might be different if you enjoy it with you.

"Bang maize grilled two yes," Sofi said to a grilled corn seller.

"What do you think, miss," replied the grilled corn seller.

"Bos wants to taste what."

"Same feelings for you."

Ehh, what does that mean. His words are like a riddle. Ahh just a coincidence.

"Barberque flavor two ya bang."

"Well, miss, wait a minute?"
