The Charm Behind the Mist

Stepped over.

~Happy Reading~

Carren started to get serious and concentrated on working with Bu Florens. He has found a world he likes to work in. Where is not the main factor to be able to work. It only takes creativity to produce something beautiful and beautiful.

In his busy life, it did not feel like another year had passed. Carren no longer thinks about going to college by not looking for a university that provides scholarships. He had forgotten his desire to go to college.

As Bu Florens's business improved, Carren's income was also better. Ms. Florens started adding employees to help her. The one that was only five with Bu Florens, now became nine. Because many people need the services of decor.

As of right now, they were decorating a fairly spacious meeting hall for the wedding reception. They rest for lunch. Rosna approached Carren and sat on the floor to have lunch with him. They became close, as the age gap was only one year.

"Ros, don't you want to go to college?" Carren asked, as Rosna was one year younger than him and also just a high school graduate. He started working with Bu Florens one year ago. Previously only helped at school time.

"Ngga, Brother Carren. I want to go to college, but I don't want to. Now I'm doing silat besides this job." Said Rosna, pointing at the decor.

"Silat training? You mean silat like this?" Carren said, moving his hands like people were shining.

"Yes, Brother Carren. I like silat training to participate in the race, but also to take care of myself. We are women who sometimes have to go home at night and alone. To keep yourself safe." Rosna said, explaining with a smile.

"Yes, yeah. Is anyone allowed to practice and how much does it cost if you want to practice silat?" Carren asked, interested in Rosna's explanation. Because she is also a woman and lives alone with her mother.

"Anybody can practice, Brother Carren. Because who trained my Engkong, so there is no cost. But sometimes trained the same Babe or Uncle. If it's an outsider who's training, it's the cost." Rosna, back to explaining.

"Then, I'm going to practice with you, yeah. The day also goes with you, let there be known friends." Carren said, interested.

"Good, Brother. I'll tell you about Engkong and tell him his schedule is the same as Brother." Said Rosna, giving Carren an ok sign.

"Heyy... Time for work, not conversation." There was a sound of shouting towards Carren and Rosna. Surprise them and look for unusual sources of sound.

"Yoo, Ros. Let's work, don't put it to the heart." Said Carren, as he looked at Sisil who was shouting. Sisil is the nephew of Ms. Florens who recently worked with Ms. Florens. But it looks like a boss, more than Bu Florens.

Carren realized, Sisil secretly likes to pay attention to him. Especially if being spoken to by Ms. Florens, she will look at him with a face that does not like. Carren didn't respond, he continued to work with his other friends.

"Sir, Sisil. Please give me the red flower ties, yeah." Said Carren who was standing on the stairs to decorate, when he saw Sisil passing under him.

"Take it yourself. I'm your maid." Said Sisil, while continuing to walk leaving Carren who was looking at his back with a gawk. Because it had only happened during her work with her co-workers.

"So, Brother Carren, let me take it." Said Rosna, then came down from the stairs next to Carren to pick up the flowers that Carren meant. He himself was surprised by what Sisil said. Because asking each other for help is something they usually do.

Because it is not possible that on the top of the stairs go up and down to pick up materials to decorate. It will be exhausting and time-wasting. So that there are usually up decorating, there are those below to be ready to help. Like the others are helping Akri and Ichad in other parts.

"Thank you, Ros. Then, Ros is brought, I'll be upstairs to decorate. Let's get it over with and get things done before Miss Florens comes." Carren said, ignoring what Sisil is doing and trying to concentrate on his work.

Not long after, Akri comes to help finish Rosna's part because she has to help Carren. "False Brother Akri." Carren said, a little calm to see Akri coming to help.

After all had been finished in the deck and the room had been cleaned, they all sat on the floor to stretch their leg muscles.

"Eehh, what's this about all the relaxing sitting?" Sisil asked, out of nowhere. Because during the decor, he was invisible.

"Eehh, what are you talking about? Are your eyes squeaky? Didn't you see what we were doing? Come-coming, the song is rich big mistress. Get out of here, before I grab a rose stem and snatch your mouth." Said Ichad, who was cape' and had withstood his regret from earlier.

"How does he know it feels cape' if the only thing that works is his mouth, Sister Ichad." Said Akri, who was also already upset to hear his words towards Carren. Among them all, the oldest is Ichad. So Ichad can reprimand anyone who is not polite.

"Ayooo, guys. That Aunt Florens has come, let's go home because I've got a bath." Carren said, diverting the conversation that has begun to heat up.

"Tante, it's all done, so we're going home. Our bodies are all sticky." Carren said, as Bu Florens approached them. Ichad's face was not happy, looking at Sisil who was sweet in front of Bu Florens.

"Yes, can. Thank you, you guys have been decorating so well and beautifully. All the trash is left alone, Sisil will take care of it. Because he's going home with Auntie." Said Ms. Florens, because she felt an aura that was not good.

Ms. Florens also saw that the others were very squishy and tired, while Sisil remained fresh and tidy. It was a concern and he realized something was wrong.

.***.

Much time has passed with the sweet and bitter story at work. Especially for Carren who works in a field that requires art and must be creative.

Ms. Florens often gets an order to decorate the Church for weddings. As of now, they will decorate one of the churches in East Jakarta.

If decorating the Church, Carren and Miss Nancy would be busy making ribbons of satin and tiles. It's very different if they decorate the reception building.

Therefore, each Carren Church decorator will bring a box containing slayer and ribbon that has been made with his mother. All devices for decorating the Church have been placed in the hall.

They will decorate quickly, as they will move to the meeting building in Central Jakarta. Therefore, early in the morning they all gathered in the hall and began to tidy up the Church chairs as the bride and groom wanted.

When Carren opened his box to decorate, he was shocked. There was a ribbon that broke its shape and there were some slayers that broke off.

"What's up, Brother Carren?" Rosna asked, as she saw Carren standing still in front of her box.

"Ngga papa, Ros. There's a broken ribbon, maybe I didn't take her very carefully." Carren said, then took out all the good tape and put it on. The broken one, he hurriedly fixed it.

"Ros, please have a stapler with Akri, yes. I want to connect these slayers." Said Carren, and Ros immediately went to Akri's place to borrow a stapler.

"This is Sis, the stapler. This slayer is not broken, brother, but deliberately broken. Slayer this is mah, scissored." Rosna said, looking at the slayer in Carren's hand.

"That's nothing to talk about, Ros. Don't listen to Ichad and Akri. We have a lot of work after this. You help me put this on, yeah." Said Carren, after the slayer distapler. Rosna nodded in understanding, then helped Carren in silence while thinking. Who has done such a nasty thing to their decor devices.
