RAINBOW FOR HURRICANE HANS

RAINBOW FOR HURRICANE HANS
PHOTO BEHIND THE GLASS FRAME



A few days passed, I've got a call from one of my confidants, om Bram, to start getting into the company. Once I refused because I was not ready, I who incidentally never learned about business seemed to be unable to run the company of my late father.


I feel unworthy if I have to be a leader, I'm afraid my father's company will be destroyed if I lead. But Om Bram said if there will be a trusted person who helps me to learn also helps run the company.


The day that awaited me and Claudy were getting ready to head to the company. I was also accompanied by sister Nisa, since the incident when we came home from Hans' funeral, I asked sister Nisa to accompany me and Claudy.


Me, sister Nisa and Claudy are waiting for the car that will take us to the company, that's what Bram said when he called me earlier. We waited long enough for a car to stop in our wake. A middle-aged man came down from the top of the car dressed like a driver.


''On the morning of Bu Pelangi, I was the messenger of Mr. Bram to take the mother to the office, '' said the father.


''Sir, let's go sir. Thank you for picking us up, I got in the car followed by Claudy and sister Nisa.


The car slowly left the house, in the car I could only stand still not knowing what to say. Sister Nisa and Claudy are busy with their respective cell phones, I myself am busy with thoughts of what I will do if I have arrived at the company.


Even though I already have some company, I always entrust it to others. I only know that my company can help others. I never thought I would have to run my own company, especially a big company.


After covering a distance of about 25 kilo meters, I was finally able to arrive at the company where I was about to start a new life. When the car was parked neatly in the company yard, I was still sitting glued to the car. I don't think I can believe all this, I don't even understand what I'm supposed to do right now.


Nervous, of course I'm nervous. I squeezed the tip of the shirt I was wearing, it felt like a lot of sweat had come out on my forehead.


''Come ma''


Claudy clasped my hand with a smile as if giving me the strength to step up and face it all. I saw that at the main door there were already lined up so many employees, it seemed that they were welcoming us.


''Please ma''' said the driver.


I slowly walked towards the main door. Confused, one word that could describe my current state. Don't know what to say and don't know what to do?


''Good morning ma'am, I am beautiful secretary mom. Please come with me, I will show the mother's room before we go around the office'' he said then walked slowly.


I followed Indah from behind while greeting and smiling at the employees standing at the main door as well who were passing by inside the building.


''Lovely, uh.sorry before. Why didn't we get on that elevator back there?'' My toot.


''That's a special elevator for employees ma'am, the elevator for mom is right here. This is specifically for mom and family, he said.


I was just O-Ria responding to his words. I immediately thought that there was still a difference in status in this office. Hopefully I can change that later.

The sound of the elevator door was open, Beautiful let us in after that she just entered.


''No need to wait for me first enter Beautiful, we are equally welcome to enter. I feel bad if there is such a difference''


''It's okay ma'am, it's deservedly because mom is my boss''


''Don't be like that I feel more comfortable when there is no difference between peer and subordinate. Except if there are clients or outsiders, but if only in the company consider me your friend''


''Sorry ma'am, but this is already the company''s rules''


''It's okay to change the rules, hehehe...''

The elevator door opened, we finally reached the 10th floor where my work space was located. The four of us got out of the elevator still like when we entered earlier, we were first and beautiful last.

''Please enter ma'am, this is mom's office. There is also a room here if you want to rest, there is a bathroom, also a mini kitchen if at any time you want to cook something. If you need something, you can call me or if you want to make something, I will tell the employee on duty.''


I looked around, this room was huge, this room was even bigger than my house and Serly was.


''Please rest first, an hour from now we will have a meeting in the office hall. We will introduce you as the new leader in this company, we have prepared some snacks and drinks. Please mom and family enjoy''


''Thank you Beautiful''


''Same-sama ma'am, can I help you again ma'am?''


''No thanks, you also rest first''


''Well ma'am, then I'm sorry''


After Beautiful came out of the room, suddenly the phone in my bag shook, indicating that there was a message coming in. I rogoh my bag to search for my phone, after I can rush to open the message, it turns out that it was Om Bram who sent the message.


Om Bram [How son, have you arrived safely. Hope you can develop your father's company.]


[Thank you, pray for me].


''Ma, these pastries can Audy eat?'' Claudy asked staring at some kind of wet cake that was on the table.


''Surely, son, instead of you still full, did you finish breakfast earlier?''


''After the cake looks good ma, right aunty Nisa''


''It's so sweet, let's eat. If your mama is still full, your mama will become fat if you eat a lot of hihihi...''


Both of them sat on the sofa while enjoying the cake and drinks that have been provided. I was fixated on staring at a photo with a worn glass frame on the wall of this room, the 1×1.5 meter photo was able to make my eyes heat up.


I approached and I gently wiped the photo from behind the glass frame, a picture of a man and a woman holding a tiny baby. The tightness in my chest makes me unable to hold the clumps of clear liquid in my eye.


I sobbed I could no longer stand the tightness in my chest, my body falling to the floor with sobs that I could no longer hold.


''Mother.father...., I miss'' I cried between my sobs.


''Why are you crying?'' Claudy came to me.


''Mama misses your grandparents and nak''


''Mother do not be sad, if grandfather and grandmother see this mother surely they will be sad. Grandpa, grandma and sister Hans were already happy there''


My heart grew bitter when I remembered that one by one the people I loved were called by God.
