Our Coach, Mr. Drac

CHAPTER 13 ~ Halimun ~

There was something strange in the secretariat room that morning. Levy was sitting in front of the club manager's desk. He was caught giving advice to Dito. It was hard to believe that Levy had left the hotel in the morning.

Levy was caught talking to Dito. Levy wants Dito to understand that even though Lita has a college education, she is still a woman. As women tend to follow feelings rather than common sense. Included in accepting the Apep team challenge. 

For Levy, her dream woman is more in the direction of wanting to prove her pride. It seemed like Lita had successfully provoked Heru. Dito as assistant coach should be able to give input to Lita, when she is not there.

"Yes, sir, I'm wrong and even follow the support of Bu Lita's will," Dito looks not dare to look at Levy.

"Try you cancel or re-schedule the test, can you?" levy.

"I'll try sir!" answer Dito.

"I don't want to blame you, the coaching agenda is indeed the right of the club manager" Levy understands the limits of Dito's responsibility as assistant coach.

Levy suddenly fell silent after expressing his opinion about the absence of elements beyond the limits of the authority of an assistant coach. Although relieved after not being blamed, Dito wondered why Levy suddenly became silent. Dito's mind glared to know that it was related to an impromptu problem.

Lita went into the secretariat room, she never expected Levy there. In his heart he was glad Levy came to visit. Although Lita knows if asked directly, Levy will reason to see the development of the club. Not to meet him.

 "Whoa, there's Coach Levy apparently!" lita pretended to be surprised.

"Hi Doctor Lita!" There was clearly one yearning that was reflected in Levy's voice in the woman he met in Qatar.

"Sir Levy's been here, ma'am!" Dito said, it seems like he just understood because Levy was suddenly silent earlier.

"Oh yes, Tumben-tumbenan want to come see us here," said Lita impressed sewot.

"Yes, I just had a discussion with Dito, Yes Dit yes," Levy tried to make Lita confident in her words.

"Yes Mom!" dito replied quickly as if looking safe. "Sir Levy I permission to go out first want to face the instructor first."

"OK Dit, Don't forget my order!" Levy recalled the agreement between them earlier, "remember three days!"

"Who sir, when it's over, I'll take it to Bu Lita, sir?" dito.

"Okay Dit, thank you." Reply Levy

Deliberately Dito quickly went from there. Dito can feel there is a bad aura in Lita. The sooner he goes out of the way, the sooner he'll be safe.

Levy asked Lita's absence for two days. Asked like that Lita looked smiling. The dimple next to it looks more and more real in the lower right. Lita feels that winning has succeeded in making Levy come to the secretariat and look for her.

"I'm completing a promotional program for three regional sports," Lita gave a reason.

"Who's program for?" Levy wanted to know the female co-worker she cared about.

"Clinic! I was helped by Sari there!" answer Lita.

"Who's here?" Levy wants to know someone she's never heard of. 

"Administrator at the clinic, he's pretty good at his computer!" Lita tells Sari's figure to Levy.

"Where is the program?" ask Levy.

"The program itself is finished, we are currently compiling an action plan for its sales activities" Lita told the status of its work program report.

"May I see it, who knows I can give input!" Levy offers herself as a free business consultant.

"No, it's just a simple program!" Lita refuses Levy's help subtly. 

"Well," Levy understood Lita's refusal.

"What's all of a sudden here, not afraid of what sunshine?" Lita asked a question that was quite piercing Levy's feelings. 

"There was talk with Dito, about the training menu for friends," replied Levy remained calm.

"You want to use the YouTube link again?" Lita tried to issue a joke as well as insinuation to Levy.

Lita may bring up the incident of the YouTube link. For Levy no problem, he just thought that Lita had forgotten to ever say sorry for the incident. Levy has proven that YouTube links are not intended as training material.

Even unbeknownst to Lita, she has been doing some research on the management of the football school where young Luca Modric trains. A legendary football school in Croatia. The country has just finished third in the Qatar world cup.

"We're trying to arrange training materials that are suitable for the team" Levy gave a serious response to Lita's jokes.

"What are the training materials, you yourself say team members are not enough, so you can't practice" Lita tried to remind her of her own conversation.

"Truely Lita, so we will accelerate in terms of recruitment of new players!" levy.

*Good idea, how to plan to recruit new players yourself?" ask Lita.

"I have planned with Dito, Just execution,* said Levy.

"Extecution? Meanin?" Lita asked again.

"As soon as I get the training schedule from another club from Dito!" answer Levy.

"meaning?" This time Lita asked while tilting her head to touch her right shoulder. With a big smile, of course.

"I've got leaks from Dito, fans of this football club a lot at first," replied Levy who looks sad due to the smile.

Levy also told the story he heard from Dito. That many Dito class friends are interested in entering the football club initially. Even to enter the selection process. Unfortunately they had to disband when Apep was appointed to replace Mr. Marthak as club manager. 

"O, that's right. Dito did say that Mr. Marthak is the manager of the club before Apep," Lita complete the story Levy.

"It's time we re-recruit them!" Levy looked excited.

"Why not wait for a freshman just later," Lita is rather worried about the negative views of other sports clubs on her. Lita is afraid of being considered to snatch membership from their club.

"Can't be delayed any more, the disruption to this club is even faster!" Levy gave a picture of the situation that was hitting them.

"meaning?" A question that had the impression of being lazy to think Lita said it again.

Then Levy carefully said the result of his thought, "Today's a football club, tomorrow we don't know which other clubs will be destroyed!"

Lita was silent to Levy's explanation. That opinion really has a point. Lita did not dare to imagine if the students would only be spectators in the future. 

College students themselves can no longer enjoy the sports facilities that they are supposed to. Replaced by outsiders. Only for the benefit of a handful of people who always charge money, behind the reasons for professionalism.

"Lita, I heard from Dito, that you have received a challenge from Heru and Apep?" Levy wanted to compare the words Dito had heard before.

"I'm sorry, I really have been consumed by Heru's words," Lita tried to make a defense against him.

Lita suddenly pale, listen to Levy's statement. He believes this has been one of the talks between Levy and Dito. It all started from the stupidity of her who had accidentally dared to accept Heru's challenge. It was a real fatal mistake in his life.

"It was predicted!" levy said not to blame Lita in the least. 

Even if Lita remembers, there was once a chance Levy told Lita about Heru. If Heru wants to understand a little about the interests of students, Levy will talk to him carefully. Maybe even work with him. Surely Levy will never manipulate Heru.

"So you've guessed that he would do something like this?" Lita is relieved to know that she is not to blame by Levy.

"Actually it's better to avoid it first, never get hooked," Levy like giving advice to Lita, "they want to break the guts of all of us!"

"I'm sorry I don't understand the model of political wear like that" said Lita.

"Don't be anti-political, it could all be better if we learn to understand political order" Levy outlined his views on politics to Lita.

Levy further said to Lita, every human being must be political. In that way, someone can use others to do things as they wish. Not a wrong thing, as long as it is done for the common good.

Lita admits Levy's explanation contains the authentic value of the word politics itself. Even without realizing it, he was in politics. Lita will always remember one of the main tenets of Levy's politics.

Lita demanded by Levy should be able to distinguish the front stage and back stage. Any political talk of a person should be analyzed according to his or her goals. Direct or indirect purpose. Lita thanks for getting the basic concept of political science. A science that he considered always a tool for fighting for power.

"Hey! You haven't answered the reason you're not afraid of the heat of the sun?" Lita recalled the second question she said at the beginning of the conversation.

"Oh yeah sorry, because there's a weather forecast!" answer Levy.

"News on TV?" Lita try to emphasize.

"Yes, they say it's cloudy all day and it's gonna rain!"  levy looks happy.

"No wonder, from this morning the cucumber did not stop down," Lita supported the weather forecast.

"Halimmun?" Levy doesn't understand.

"Mist!" answer Lita.

"It's true that the fog blocks sunlight" Levy said.

*But you didn't do it, did you?" Lita asked like that because she had seen the magic of dracula in a film.

"Things that are useless to do! Just spend the energy" Levy said

Lita responded to Levy's statement. He came to the conclusion that Levy never rejected the statement he made. This means that Levy is indeed able to make a fog to save himself or outwit the enemy as he sees in vampire films or dracula.

"I need a break, can you give me a ride back to the hotel!" levy Pinta.

"Of course I can take you there!" lita replied without hesitation.

"Now?" Levy is half pushy.

"Yes, I'm out of teaching hours" Lita stated.

"Thank you" said Levy.

Lita understood Levy's anxiety. From a distance the sky above the hotel where Levy stayed looked brighter than where they were at that time.It was not heavy for him to deliver his heart to return to the hotel. 

There is a meaning to their meeting though relatively short. Lita began to feel a sense of calm. It was seen by him that Levy had taken a real action for the football club he led. 

As a manager his job now is to follow the development of the club. Examine and approve programs and plans that Levy will do. Lita wants Levy to do what is best for his team.
