The Marrying Bet

Seven years ago, Vara had just completed her S2 education. After his match with Riko fails, Vara decides to look for a job only. While looking for a job, he also filled his time by taking cooking courses. 


Vara is very busy, following the job market, a series of employee acceptance tests, to job interviews. Most companies reject Vara on cliche grounds, Vara's diploma is too high, while Vara has no work experience at all.


"With your diploma, you should be able to apply for a manager position, not a beginner level" said most interviewers who interviewed Vara.


"This high degree, what salary would you like to pay? The company is not brave" said another interviewer.


Vara was really depressed and down. He used to think that with a diploma and alma mater campus was enough capital so that he could be accepted to work. It turns out that Vara was mistaken, a high diploma with no work experience made it difficult to get a job.


Until one day, Vara gets a test call at a company called Victory Group. New companies have grown in recent years. Vara never even heard the name of the company. He just took the test on call. 


Vara went through a series of written tests ranging from general knowledge tests, psychotes, to knowledge about the job position applied.


Not to mention the user interview. Vara still remembers, so many applicants were competing with her. They all have not only a good diploma, but also a lot of work experience.


"We need employees who can start working immediately tomorrow" said Ms Anna, who was then the finance manager.


Only Vara participants are ready, because Vara's position at that time was purely a job seeker. Other applicants certainly cannot because they are still under contract elsewhere, and certainly cannot leave their work before completing the job in the old place.


Vara felt very lucky to be accepted to work at the company, although of course Vara could not negotiate a salary because he realized that he applied as an employee with a beginner level, though certainly Vara could not negotiate a salary because he realized that he applied as an employee with a beginner level, despite having an S2 diploma that seems really redundant. For Vara, it really does not matter, at that time the most important thing is that Vara is no longer unemployed.


"Vara accepted a job at a company whose name is not well known" his mother commented.


"It's okay, ma'am, it's important that Vara is working" said the father.


"What company is that, Vara? Foreign companies?" ask mother.


"Lokal, Ma'am, Vara will go for it" replied Vara optimistically.


"The salary goes with the company's standards only, ma'am" replied Vara.


"Okay, Vara, Bu Bejo's son who is only a high school diploma can work in a foreign company," complained the mother.


"Mom, that's each other's fortune" said the father.


"Yes, ma'am, the important thing is that Vara go first" Vara chimed in.


Thus, Vara started his work with an optimistic attitude. He was really happy, there are companies that can accept him to work at the right time, even though Vara is only a contract employee. Vara works with all her heart, studies with good seniors and thinks of her as a family. Vara, who is only an only child, is certainly very happy because working in Victory Group makes him feel he has many brothers. In addition, every year hopes there will be a change in staffing status. 


That's the reason why Vara remained working in Victory Group even though for seven years only a contract employee. He hopes that his struggle and patience will produce results.


Just like his sudden marriage to Viceroy. 


A man who asked her to get married at the right time. They had a marriage that was originally just a deal. As time went on, he felt he had fallen in love with the man, though he was still very hesitant to reveal and admit it. Currently Vara is struggling to get the blessing of the In-laws. If he has received blessing from his father-in-law, the status of son-in-law will be obtained.


...*****...


Vara clasped Viceroy's hand, when entering the Queen Mother's house aka Viceroy's mother who really looks like the Queen Mother in a royal-themed film.


The middle-aged woman who was wearing magnificent and luxurious-style clothes greeted them coldly. Staring at Vara with a flat look.  Making Vara's guts shrivel instantly, but Viceroy who was standing next to her, clasping his hand, actually strengthened Vara. Let's just say that now Vara is in the middle of a thesis hearing. Mrs Meneer as the testing lecturer who will test Vara all-out and Viceroy who became the supervising lecturer will defend him until the trial ends. Vara just needs confidence and determination to face everything.
