MY FOSTER SON

Plan Go

Kalingga stretched out one hand with one hand hugging his sisters. The man asks Jojo to come closer.

"You what?" jojo asked glaring. What does that man mean.

"Of course hug together" answered Kylan.

"Huh, that's right," Jojo replied reluctantly. He knew his kids were just joking. But even if that's the case, Jojo can't possibly want to. They are all now close, he considers his four foster children family, but for excessive physical contact, it still feels uncomfortable.

After Kalingga and his three younger siblings hugged, he told them about his plans to expand the network by stopping the supply of goods to other outlets. Kalingga prefers to market its own products in specialized outlets.

Keenan and his two brothers agreed. The outlet, which will start operating next month, will be assisted directly by his younger siblings. After years of waiting, Kalingga is finally ready and confident to raise his family business.

The women's fashion company that she manages always falls awake with a turnover that goes up and down. Competition in terms of marketing becomes the biggest ordeal when brands from other companies dominate.

Now her sisters are independent and successful. Keenan and Kylan were no longer dependent on him, and Kalingga began to be confident in the risks he would accept if the progress he had dreamed of was not true.

"Let's eat, spend it all" Kalingga said.

"Yeay, dinner party!" exclaim Kai. He prepared with a plate in hand and filled it with many kinds of food.

After dinner was over, the four of them gathered in the living room while watching television.

"What if we take care of everything ourselves, marketing, sales, promotions?" ask Kalingga.

"I can work on it for promotion" Kylan replied. Keenan also agreed. While Kai, he can only encourage his brothers because he has not been able to do many more meaningful things.

"How could Mr Aslan so well offer such cooperation, Brother?" ask Keenan. "I know, their families do have outlets in America. But all the products they sell are international brands," he continued.

"Aren't you sure you can compete with overseas brands?" ask Kylan.

"We'll just try. Failing is no problem either. This is only an attempt to penetrate the international market, but we also focus on our own outlets. In recent times market demand has increased" Kalingga explained. His three siblings supported whatever their brother's decision was.

A week passed, Aslan kept his promise to send airline tickets to America, he also provided a place to stay for Kalingga during a visit.

Aslan asked Kalingga to prepare a catalog of clothes from dresses to lingerie to his office. Before the goods are delivered, Aslan will make sure if all is also in accordance with his wishes.

After Kalingga finished his visit and agreed, he could immediately send his products to America.

"Lusa, are any of you unemployed?" ask Kalingga at breakfast with his three sisters and Jojo.

"Why?" ask Kylan.

"Mr Aslan gave two departure tickets along with two hotel vouchers. I can take someone with me if anyone is willing" replied Kalingga.

"There was an invitation from one of the television stations, Kak. I've agreed and promised to come" Keenan refused.

"Lately the shooting job is very solid. Don't take me, " sidelined Kylan. Kalingga took a deep breath, he glanced at Kai.

"There's no way I'm coming. You know for yourself, next month I have my midterms. I'll be suspended again if I skip a few days" Kai said.

Kalingga looks disappointed when his three younger siblings are really busy, but he does not want to force.

"What about you, Jo?" ask Kylan.

"True, just take Jojo, Kak," interrupted Keenan. Kalingga was silent, he seemed to think.

"Yes, he can help you, brother." Kai agreed with Keenan.

At first Jojo refused because he did not have much money to go with Kalingga. But Kai kept forcing her to come along. Kalingga also explained that Jojo did not need to pay for their trip. For flight tickets until the place of stay has been provided.

Kalingga would be very happy if he had a friend exchange ideas. If Jojo comes along, the girl can give him advice.

"Follow it, Jo. You never went abroad, did you?" ask Kai. The boy smiled a smile of ridicule.

"Why do you force me to leave. Don't you, you have a plan."

"Hey, your thoughts are very bad for me. I'm going to tell you to go so you can feel what it's like to get on a plane, what I'm going to do" Kai said with a sullen face.

Jojo narrowed, looking at Kai with a probing look.

"I'm happy if you're willing to come along, Jo. I'll have friends chatting," Kalingga said.

"Okay, but are you guys okay if I go?" jojo asked as he looked at Keenan, Kylan and Kai alternately.

"Sure, we'll be fine." Kylan smiled.

Jojo finally agreed. After all, the activities on the campus are now not as crowded as before. He can take three to four days off to accompany Kalingga away.

After breakfast, the four children left home. Jojo enters Keenan's room to retrieve the man's dirty clothes. Staying here and taking care of all the needs of his foster children makes Jojo even be able to distinguish the clothes belonging to each person just by smelling the perfume that is still left behind.

"Lusa I'll be off for a few days, Irene. I have a need" Jojo told his best friend when they met at college.

"What's wrong? you're going home to your village?" ask Irene.

"No, I have to accompany one of my foster children abroad. Special work" Jojo replied.

"Wow, that's delicious. Working while on vacation," said Irene amazed. Because during her work as a maid for almost two years, not even though her employer took her abroad even out of town just to babysit.

To date, the reality of Jojo's four foster children remains a secret. Jojo doesn't want to hide the secret from Irene. But he wants to keep the privacy of his four foster children. He even knew that Irene also knew Ken Caessa through the films that Keenan had played.

"Lately Leon doesn't seem to bother you very often" Irene said.

"Indeed. I taught him a lesson."

"Lesson? don't tell me you beat him up, Jo!" exciting Irene.

"He called me almost ten times a day. Send messages almost every minute. I turned him down a few times and he insisted on forcing me, I can't stand it, Irene!"

"But don't be too rude. Are you going to live a lifetime? Sometimes try to be in a relationship with any man. Just so he's nice and makes you comfortable." Irene gave advice.

They chat until class time starts. Irene advises Jojo to start opening her heart. All women love to be loved and cared for. Seeing Jojo only thinking about her job and education, Irene felt the girl was too shut down.
