There are many jokes that are a cause for laughter. The bleakness and emptiness are such dull dark compounds. Prison is crowded with prisoners. Somewhat rude also said an evil that is none other than human nature as well.
In the corner of the room was unraveled a long white cloth that touched both beautiful legs. Her radiant white feet were on a rather old sewing table. He sewed quite tenaciously. At about Eleven o'clock in the evening, he was still continuing the order that had to be completed by tomorrow morning. Also, the walls of the house were on the side. The house is worth renovating. As a result of the old age of the house and the shock of nature makes the house more alarming.
"Sir, why haven't you slept?"
"Sister completed the order from Mother Danti."
"I help you, brother."
"No need for Zee. You just sleep."
"But brother if I sleep, what about brother? We slept together, brother. That's why I'm helping you to run fast."
"You don't be reckless. Brother can do it himself. You sleep first, Zee."
Zee looks pity looking at her brother. He was forced to walk to his room which is also referred to as the living room. He sat on an orange mat and took a small pillow. The clock almost shows twelve o'clock at night. She felt her sister was very tired. But you have to stand up and fight to survive.
"Yes it's almost done" Shizuka said.
The late night made Shizuka fall asleep. He sleeps with the position of his face that befalls the clothes he sewn. When the sun was smiling brightly at the nelangsa, Zee approached her brother. He smiled at his brother who was still continuing his stitching.
"So, haven't you slept all night?"
"Sleep with Zee. But I didn't realize I was asleep."
"It must be because of big brother's tiredness."
"How do you think brother? Is your job done?"
"Not Zee. The order was delivered at nine in the morning. You accompany brother Zee there."
"Yes brother. Do you want me to make tea?"
"As much as you are Zee."
"Jaudah wait a minute, brother I made it."
...****************...
Salwa and Kartika stop by Haikal's house. They were angry at him for not choosing them as fashion designers at the company. Haikal is indifferent. He kept typing on his laptop. Salwa took Haikal's laptop. He again convinces Haikal that they are better than Shizuka. Haikal is still with his decision. He took his laptop out of Salwa's hand.
"Why did you choose Kal?" Tanya Kartika moody.
"He graduated from High School. While we are both from fashion graduates. Another scholar."
"You're called Mr. Fariz."
Haikal brought his laptop and documents. He did not answer Salwa and Kartika. Salwa and Kartika followed Haikal and Ian. Once there, Ian closed the door to Fariz's room. Salwa and Kartika are getting upset.
"Eh Ian you didn't see us both coming in. Why close the door?" Kartika.
"You're not called Fariz" said Ian to leave them.
"He's the same as Haikal. We're both sick and don't want to hear us."
"Shizuka is that Haikal anyway?" Tanya Kartika.
"I don't know Kartika either" Salwa replied.
"I've never seen or heard of him. But I heard a little from the stories of other employees he said she was a village girl who graduated from High School" said Kartika.
"I'll persuade Haikal to recommend one of us. Hopefully Mr. Fariz doesn't like Shizuka as a fashion designer at this company" Salwa said.
A few minutes later Haikal came out of Fariz's room. He did not care about Salwa and Kartika who were in front of him. He kept walking towards his room. Salwa and Kartika followed suit. The two of them looked at Haikal who was holding his phone.
"Please don't follow me again. I want to work" Haikal's pinta looked at the two of them.
"We wouldn't have followed you earlier if you'd listened to us."
"Do you have no other job? Please get out of my room."
"Before I was rude." Haikal again with a fiery face.
They also came out with an ugly face. Salwa threw down the door of Haikal's room very hard. While Kartika was silent to his room near Ian. He sat down restless. His hand grabbed his phone. He seems so disappointed too. So he called in a very strong voice.
The people around him were astonished. Ian, who was to his left, approached him. He has also known the intention of Kartika who wants to nominate herself as a fashion stylist in their company.
"You why? I hope you remain optimistic about Kartika. Also called competition. Don't give up, okay?"
"What's giving up?"
"Oh yes, I think Shizuka if he is careful, the person is ordinary. But we haven't seen his talent. It could be that he's the right person to work here in place of Yuzi."
"The marketing part also seems to have needed cooperation with great designers such as Yuzi. Is Shizuka able to take his place huh."
"Yuzi is great. I hope you're not the same as that girl."
"By the way the manager said that Haikal will meet with Shizuka tomorrow afternoon."
"Me where? I have to go" said Kartika.
"I don't know. You can ask Haikal. I think you're coming along so you can get to know Shizuka" Ian suggested calmly.
"Thanks Ian." - "Thanks Ian."
"OKAY. Don't be angry anymore. Fast old apert."
Kartika smiled. He resumed his pending work. Ian also returned to his room next to Kartika. Their room was confined to a wall at the waist of an adult. The paint is blue. Kartika is at the corner of the room or at the corner. Although Kartika was a bit disappointed that day, she returned to her normal self. Friendly and warm is the nature of Kartika.
She's a brown-skinned girl with waist-straight hair. Nasrani religion. He served in the company as an employee. Same with Ian and Salwa. Kartika's eyes are rather large, her eyebrows thin and her nose pug. She was nicknamed Rapunzel because she was like a doll. The nickname was a gift from Salwa. His best friend worked there.
...****************...
The shadow continued to run around in Shizuka's memory. Like a man sneaking in stealing a piece of heart. Two pieces or even more because he was very hurt and somewhat depressed. The vagueness in the hue of his face resulted in Shizuka thinking long about who the man present in his dream was.
His house is now quite crowded. It's not as lonely as there's only Shizuka and Zee. The crowd also made him realize that he must immediately be friends with someone. He had never met that man. So Shizuka only looks simple.
He grabbed his little bag and came out of the stifling crowd. On the doorstep of his house, there was already a man in an office uniform.his blazer was gray with a white shirt, his pants were also compatible with the clothes he was wearing, he said, the fragrance of the perfume is so elegant as the fragrance favored by Shizuka is the scent of purple perfume, her hair is straight and neatly arranged like a man in the Korean kingdom or nobility, her skin is fair, white, and the height is about 180 cm with an ideal body weight.
Shizuka smiled at him. The man returned his smile. Shizuka was more embarrassed because she had never seen such a handsome and charming man. Plus Shizuka also rarely met men because she was busy with her business.
"Assalamu'alaikum! Is this really Shizuka Anindya Siregar's house?"
"Girlwindsalam! It's true."
"Is Shizuka there?"
"That's me. I am Shizuka."
"Yes it's okay. Let's just sit here because my house is crowded and the conditions are not possible. My house is not large. So it's okay to just sit here?" Shizuka stared guiltily.
"It's okay Shizuka. I don't mind it."
"Wait a minute I'll get you a drink."
"Sister is great. It is unexpected that many people volunteered to work with us. There are also some who want to mess with clothes like big brother," murmured Zee grateful.
"Zee our guest has arrived. He's on the front porch. Let you take care of what's here first" Shizuka said pointing to the sewing machine.
"Sure brother."
"Well, if it's about people asking for jobs, what do you know?"
"Is it okay not to pay them, brother?"
"You ask their opinion how good it is. Let's just say they're a few months' course here because we're new to this business too and we're funding Zee too."
Zee nodded in agreement.
"Salwa, Kartika why are you here?"
"May we be here?" Tanya Kartika pleaded.
"But how do you know I'm here?"
"Here's the drink. Sorry for a long time" Shizuka said, putting her drink on a small bamboo table.
"It's okay Shizuka. Thank you, yes" Haikal smiled.
"Are you busy Shizuka?"
"Many as well."
"You're Shizuka?" Salwa asked by pointing towards Shizuka.
"Yes. I'm Shizuka. Do you know each other?" Shizuka asked looking at Haikal.
Kartika did not give Haikal a chance to speak. He approached Shizuka. Look at it from the feet to the ends of her hair. Then he walked around Shizuka.
"You're Shizuka? I thought you were a girl like us. It seems to fit your residence. You are poor and simple. Nothing interesting from you. You are a woman who is considered smart in terms of clothing design. But I noticed you didn't know anything. Your appearance is substandard. Is it appropriate that he cooperate with our company Haikal?"
"Stop judging someone with your glasses."
"Did I speak Salwa wrongly?" Ask Kartika.
"What Kartika said is true. We don't deserve to come here and get him to work together."
"May I say one thing? It's not a fry. Not so easy to choose and convince Mr. Faiz. He is a valuable asset. He's talented. Mr. Faiz chose it. I wasn't. I'm just recommending."
"Just like that Haikal. Why do you recommend him? Just look at his appearance so embarrassing," said Kartika cynical.
Shizuka was embarrassed. He was frozen in an atmosphere that ravaged his heart. He walked slowly back to the door of his house. Haikal, who realized that Shizuka wanted to enter the house, clasped his right hand. Haikal felt Shizuka's cold hand. It's cold as the ice at the North Pole. Both of Shizuka's eyeballs look dim due to the speech from Salwa and Kartika.
"Where are you going? Stay here!" Pinta Haikal's.
Shizuka just kept quiet while looking at Haikal's eyes that were so shady. It was like being in a beautiful palace. Both Haikal's eyes looked soothing. So soothing to the succum. Both of their hands are still holding each other. Both of Shizuka's cheeks were flushed. Haikal's handsome face makes him forget that Salwa and Kartika are nearby. He smiled so he could not take his eyes off anywhere.
Haikal smiled as well. He did not let go of Shizuka's hand. They both looked at each other. I don't know what they feel. Both seem happy. Salwa and Kartika who saw the two of them were simply astonished. The mood thumped even more when Shizuka accidentally told Haikal about her imagination.
"I want to be with you like the prince who keeps protecting his angel. I can't even afford to part from you" Shizuka said with tears in her eyes.
Haikal was surprised.
"What's this about? Take off Haikal's hand," said Kartika separate them both.
"That gaze. It was like a look of love. Did Shizuka put any flavor on me?" Haikal muttered still looking at Shizuka with a smile.
"Have you finished fantasizing? Now I hope you don't dream of getting into the lives of people like us" Kartika glared at Shizuka.
"Better you two leave us alone. We are here to work together. Do not aggravate the mood. Please Salwa take Kartika away. Otherwise Mr. Faiz will know that you ruined my work. If he knows I'm sure you won't be able to live quietly."
"Haikal said Kartika right. Let's go back to the company" said Salwa holding Kartika's right arm.
They both left by force. Salwa riding Kartika with a white motorcycle. Then Haikal again invited Shizuka to listen to him speak. He apologized to Shizuka. Then give him the happy news about the purpose of his arrival.
...****************...
The look of love longed for. Miss who knows will look at a village girl. The fragrant red rose and its beautiful petals are like a body never seen by the eye. Haikal's daydreams poked fun at him to keep dancing with the girl he had just met.
The alarm sounded inaudible to him. Debi rushed to turn off the alarm. He ignored his brother who was still staring at the ceiling of his room. Haikal who still wore pajamas continued to lie down because the delusion looked beautiful.
"Debi, where's your brother?"
"In Mom's room. Oh yes mom can I take a course with Shizuka? Everyone now has a lot of courses there. I also want to open a business like them if I'm great later," said Debi took a tablespoon.
"Why are you studying with Shizuka? He was just a high school graduate. There's no talent in sewing."
"Yes, anyway. I also originally thought the same as mother."
"You don't think so. Do not judge someone by their education or appearance," said Haikal still wearing pajamas with a chaotic face.
"Why do you say that, son? Shizuka is just an ordinary person. Even to live he is difficult. Especially to build such a great effort."
"Bu Shizuka is a great career woman. I just met a simple, smart, nice, creative woman and she's beautiful."
"Hm that's a compliment or just a sympathy bang?" Said Debi while chewing fried noodles.
"What did you say Haikal? Don't say it like that again. I don't like you to think about it that way because she's a poor woman."
"But ma'am what I said is true. Even all the villagers admired him and they were all very grateful to have a neighbor like Shizuka. He's not just like I said, Mom. She's perfect in my opinion."
"Nothing is perfect. She's an old virgin."
"It's right bang. No human is perfect. But just getting a job working together is okay."
"Thank Debi. My brother went to his house yesterday. If you don't propose Shizuka to Brother, you won't know there's a great man like him in our village."
"That's bang. It's because I'm close friends with Shizuka and Zee."
"So you mean Shizuka is now working one office with you Haikal?" Herlina said.
"Not just work, Mom. Shizuka will be a prima donna in our village. I don't know what, the village chief will now come to his house. Don't know why. Maybe it will help him in the fund or offer something valuable such as the construction of his house or shop for his business."
"That's what he deserves because his talent is so amazing."
Herlina just fell silent. Given Shizuka's condition only from an ordinary family. He did not expect that a girl without parents and lack of education could make him grow into a big man. Then he also thought that Shizuka had no skills other than just ordinary embroidery.
