The Love of Ordinary Men

Silly requirement

Today is Saturday, according to his promise yesterday to Bang Joe, Raksa will come to his photo studio to start working, as a photographer. Earlier this morning after taking her mother to the market, Raksa rushed to leave.

Being a photographer is actually a dream of Raksa since childhood. Even so, he never had a chance to live out his skills. Raksa knows about the world of photography. Only, he did not have more sustenance to buy the equipment that must be owned to start it.

That day when Bang Joe offered Raksa to work on his photo studio. Raksa really does not really want to reject it. Raksa thought this was a chance for him to realize his dream. Maybe this is the fruit of all his efforts and hard work so far.

Raksa used to work to buy a camera for photography purposes, because Raksa wanted to become a photographer, Raksa wanted to have all photographic equipment, one of which was a camera. But fate says otherwise, not out of desire, but rather his responsibility to replace the camera he has broken.

Throughout his journey the man smiled excitedly. There is always good in every trouble. Raksa believed that there would be ease in every difficulty.

A few minutes ago the bike was parked neatly in the parking lot of the studio. Raksa pushed the door and walked in with his polite greeting to some workers there. Not long after, Bang Joe walked up to him from the right side of the room.

"Sori Bang Joe, Raksa did not know before coming. Had finished sending the mother to the Raksa market directly here, forgetting to ngabarin first" explained Raksa to greet the hands of the adult man.

Bang Joe patted his shoulder softly. "No papa, Sa. Relax" he said.

"Later 8 o'clock there is a photo shoot for graduation photos, you can help for that. I believe you can, Sa" he said reassuringly and encouraging Raksa.

Raksa nodded in agreement, Bang Joe had given him trust, and now Raksa had to run it as well as possible. Raksa believes he can. Basically Raksa already knows some things and techniques in photography, only Raksa needs a little re-branded so that the results obtained will be more satisfying.

As always, in a photography required arrangement of light and also some background and additional properties are needed. The difference, if usually Raksa who helps this time Raksa who is assisted and authorized to direct everything.

Seramat Raksa may serve them, because for him their comfort is a priority that must be prioritized Raksa.

A few minutes passed, the photo shoot was finished.bang Joe smiled proudly to see some of the photos. It is not wrong for him to entrust this work to Raksa. That man is the right man in the right field.

Initially Raksa wanted to help with photo editing, but Bang Joe told her to take a break and chat about a few things.

Bang Joe asked him to find a person who wanted to be a catalog model for the promotion of his photo studio. Bang Joe wants his photo studio to be more crowded. Although it is undeniable that currently there are many jobs that flow because of the trust of its customers for the results they get.

Raksa knew who to ask for help. However, he was stopped considering that Ralin was a high-end model who did not rule out the possibility of asking for a contract of payment above his estimate. Raksa can still look for a standard model only, so that the funds issued are also not too large. After all, he felt bad if he had to spend a lot of money just for a model.

"Raksa find it first, yeah, Bang. Raksa asked for time" Raksa said

"Gue love you three days, yeah, Sa. You see, I need as soon as possible" said Bang Joe, actually Bang Joe felt bad for Raksa, because he demanded to immediately get a partner who would be used as a model later. Really if not for the demands of the job, Bang Joe no longer wants to trouble Raksa.

"Yes, Bang, Mercury"

..............................

Later that night after thinking about the time given by Bang Joe, Raksa was not sure he could get another model in that short enough period of time. She contacted Dania to ask her for help, but she apologized for refusing it. Dania is not a person who is good at expressing in front of the camera, after all Dania does not like to be exposed, the woman prefers her life that is not known by many people. Call it Dania is an anti-social type. Only a few people would he hang out with or chat with.

Raksa decides to ask Ralin for help, but if later the woman asks for high pay or even rejects it. The Raksa will talk it back to Bang Joe.

Since Raksa already knew where the woman lived, Raksa rushed there. Previously Raksa had tried to contact Ralin, but the number was not active, so Raksa thought it was better to just go see him.

Mr. Khamim who knew of the existence of Raksa there just opened the gate. Mr. Khamim already knew that the man was a friend of Ralin, so Mr. Khamim made it easier for Raksa to enter.

Actually Raksa still felt a little nervous when entering the courtyard of Ralin's house. He felt unworthy, let alone think about how the reaction of Ralin's parents, if he knew that his daughter was friends with a poor man like himself. Could the drama between the rich and the poor really happen in their friendship?.

A few minutes after the bell was rung, the woman came in her nightgown. Short-sleeved nightgown with shorts that are stuff like negligee, so thin and a little laugh, Raksa believes the wind can even enter from all the gaps.

"Tumben you're here? What's up, Sa?" ralin asked while inviting Raksa to enter his house.

He brought Raksa to the living room to make it better to chat. The man looked at the contents of his house, like he was looking for someone from there.

"Who to find? How rich are people in my house?" ralin asked a little confused. Because there is no one else but him and Bi Ipah in this house. Andini just left.

"Where are your parents? How lonely?" tanya Raksa made Ralin clench both her hands. Ralin did not want Raksa to know the state of his family.

"They're not home" he answered briefly, showing his displeasure at Raksa's question just now. Raksa felt bad afterwards, he seemed to have asked wrongly.

The mood turned awkward afterwards. Raksa who doesn't know what to say, and Ralin who just shut up. Luckily Bi Ipah came to melt the atmosphere by bringing two glasses of orange juice for both.

"Why are you here?" ralin asked as calmly as possible, even though it sounded cold in Raksa's ear. Looks like Ralin is still upset by Raksa's question just now.

"I want to ask for help, Ra" said Raksa to the point, he is not smart to just talk stale, besides Ralin is not a person who wants to talk stale. Even the woman would leave him if their conversation felt boring.

"What?"

"So the model for the promotion of the catalog in my workplace?" raksa said a little pleading.

"Fireflies?"

"No, Skmpay studio photo. Now I work side jobs there. Make it more" explained Raksa honestly. Nothing covered it.

Ralin raised his glass, telling Raksa to drink his drink immediately. Ralin could feel that the man in front of him looked nervous. I don't know what made him so interested in watching her. Ralin liked the way Raksa asked for his help. The man asked for it so sincerely. It was not rash to directly talk about the pay.

Putting the glass glass, Ralin's legs raised above his left foot. The slanted smile was clearly imprinted there. His face looked so proud and defiant. Ralin looks like a lion getting its prey.

"What profit do I get?" tanyakanya.

"We'll offer you a pretty high contract, but if your standards are above our estimates, maybe I should look for another model. I know myself enough, considering you're a top-class model"

"I'm not pushy, Ra" continued Raksa insecurely, after seeing Ralin's haughty gaze. The woman seemed to underestimate him.

"Why is it so easy to give up on persuading someone?"ralin asked flatly, Ralin did not like to see such an unconfident Raksa.

"I knew you would refuse" he said softly.

"Yes, if you know why ask? Just waste your time" said Ralin.

The silent monster did not know what to respond to. Ralin always asked her to argue when she wanted to speak well.

"I want to"

Raksa turned towards Ralin in disbelief. His gaze sought honesty from the dark bead of the woman's eyes. His glimmer of hope just grew. Raksa sumringah with a smile adorned her face.

"But there's a condition you have to agree on, how?" haggar Ralin as calmly as possible. Raksa nodded. Without a second thought the man would accept the conditions that Ralin would propose.

"I want us to date. Love me as sincerely as possible and make me happy with you, Raksa"
