The Dream of the President

The Dream of the President
Party Pajamas Part 2



Now it's Haris' assistant's turn to display his talent. He was confused as to what to do. However, he tried to dig out again his hobby that he had long since left.


"Good night Ladies and gentlemen. I prepared a video for President Leo and his beloved wife, Mrs Shasa. I actually had a doubt when I made this video. But, I think this video will be very memorable because I may be the only living witness to the journey of President Leo and Mrs Shasa. Please don't blaspheme yes, because I haven't edited a video myself for a long time, when in the past, editing a video was one of my hobbies." Assistant Haris smiled broadly saying his opening sentence. Then, a video was posted.


Leo and Shasa were shocked. The video by Haris' assistant contains photographs, which were either taken because they themselves did not know, depicting the moments that occurred between Leo and Shasa, the statement said, when they had dinner together on off-city errands, play time to the amusement park, there were even photos of them while riding in public transportation. As it turns out, Haris' assistant secretly takes pictures whenever Leo is with Shasa.


Shasa seemed moved by the offerings from Haris' assistant. "Gee... You're really cute, assistant Haris." Said Shasa while admiring the video footage in front of him.


Leo automatically turned to Shasa. He looked at Shasa not like it. "You may admire another man in front of me." Leo's upset.


Shasa glanced at Leo in surprise. "Did you say that?" Ask Shasa.


"Ah, no. It turns out Haris has been lacking in work lately. I thought, I've done enough of the work I've given her." Reply Leo diverts. More precisely, he avoided arguing with Shasa in front of many people, even though he already wanted to scout Shasa with his jealous questions.


"I love the video. We can tell our kids later." Shasa smiled happily.


Inexplicably hearing Shasa say the word 'our children', instantly made Leo's annoyance melt away. He understands that what Shasa admires is not Haris' assistant, but the series of stories of the two of them who unexpectedly have come this far.


After the video that opened up the origins of Leo and Shasa's relationship played, everyone in the room gave a standing ovation in appreciation of how good the video that Haris' assistant made was.


Next, Lita went up on stage. Some servants helped him prepare a long table and some equipment.


"Night, everyone." Sapa Lita with a friendly smile. "This time, I will make a glass of fresh and healthy juice especially for President Leo and also Mrs Shasa as well as for all who are here. Because every day I always make juice for myself, today I will make it for others. Of course because both are special people to me."


Everyone shouted enthusiastically at Lita, asking to make some juice as well. Niko who heard it only muttered to herself. 'If you want juice too, make it yourself. Why bother others to make it?' niko's mind is a little upset.


Lita started making juice. He cut some fresh fruit. Accidentally, Lita nudged the tip of the knife with her hand. He complained for a moment. People were shocked and wondered if Lita's hand was okay. However, in contrast to Niko who was involuntarily, she had already stood up from her seat staring at Lita who was seriously examining her hand. Shasa looked at Niko.


"Niko, why are you standing?" Shasa asked confusedly. People turned their eyes to Niko, as well as Lita who looked back at Niko in surprise.


Niko's nervous. He glanced around at the people staring at him now. "Ep... I'll take part in Lita's appearance." Niko walked towards the stage. Everyone is confused about what he is doing. Moreover, Lita, who does not plan that Niko will join in her performance.


Niko stood on stage, facing the audience in front of her. Niko glanced at Lita who was slightly behind her. "Lita, why did you stop? Continue what you're doing." Whisper Niko, hoping the audience doesn't hear.


Lita continued her activities while cursing without a sound. ''He is nothing at all?! Most ideas, huh!' grumbled Lita in heart.


"Hello, everybody. While Lita makes juice, I'll read you a story." Niko started talking.


"Are you planning a collaboration like this?" Tanya Shasa was enthusiastic.


Niko thought for a moment. "Rubber, Mistress."


Shasa cheered in excitement in the heart. However, Lita was surprised by Niko's answer. Obviously, this was beyond their plan.


Shasa enthusiastic. Tonight, Niko will definitely read a joke, not just to Shasa, but to everyone in front of her. Niko was nervous when she wanted to start. Niko started reading a joke. Although it still sounds stiff, for Shasa this time Niko has progress. He began to use intonation in his reading.


A joke story so sounds serious because Niko is reading it so that only a little spice humor is heard in Niko's story. Right at the end of the story, people applauded Niko. Some of them seem to force their laughter to be entertained by Niko's story.


At that moment, Lita had finished making the juice and provided it in a tray. He delivered the juice to Leo and Shasa, as well as Commissioner Gusta and Lady Sofia. The people around him can also taste Lita's artificial juice in small glasses. Everyone gave a satisfied applause to Lita.


Relieved it was Niko who had finished her look. It was a little helped because she performed with Lita on stage, which could at least reduce her nervousness.


'Huh... Why carry a knife just for a stage! Fortunately, my brain quickly came up with a good idea. Otherwise, I will be caught worrying about you.' Inner Niko.

Epilogue:


Finishing her pajama party, Lita confronts Niko. His gaze was so serious.


"Why do you see me like that?" ask Niko confused.


"What are you doing anyway?" Lita's as good as.


"What am I doing?" ask Niko plain.


"You messed up my look."


"Disturb? You should be thanking me because thanks to my help, your appearance has been memorable for others."


"Hahahaha... I didn't hear wrong?" Lita sighed. "Tomorrow, don't involve me in your business anymore."


"Why can't it?"


"I've never involved you in my business."


"In that case, from now on you may involve me in your affairs. I won't mind."


"Huh! I'm just tired of explaining it to you. I'm just gonna waste my time. Up you! Do whatever you want!" Lita slammed the door of her room, making it close hard.


'Women are really complicated.' Niko clicked while walking towards her room.
