Traces of the Past

Traces of the Past
My metropolis



I am in love with the city of Jakarta.


The stuck routine that makes me upset because I have to be late to the office.


Like the previous days that became my routine wake up early to the office,


I got in my car, ran my car out of my apartment parking lot.


I rushed to park my car in the office parking lot, walked in the direction of the office entrance.


"morning mom joyce"why sir here office security guard where I work


I just smiled while nodding my head


I was called a mother at the age of 29.


because of my position in my office as financial director of the life insurance company "zeus".


The elevator took me to the 8th floor where I worked.


ting


the elevator door opened I walked quickly, I almost forgot Monday morning I had a meeting with the construction company to take care of the insurance of its employees.


tok tok tok tok


"enter" I replied


"morning bu joyce, today at 9 am I had a meeting with JC Constuction to discuss benefits for employees who were injured or died in a cafe coke" my assistant Revo reminded me


"ok, you'll come along with me and bring my car" I said


"well ma'am"sahut revo


"y already in half an hour later we meet in the lobby yes, you bring all my car keys yes" said me while giving the car keys.


Revo took the key and withdrew from my room...


I glanced at my watch at 8.30 minutes, I hurried to make my appearance, exiting my room towards the elevator.


I saw the presence of the revo beside the back door of the car, opened the car door for me and closed it again.


in the car we talked about the meeting this morning.


"rev, you're ready for the documents and files, right?"much


"mommy already"he said


"yes, you will be the one who presented yes, I will help you explain as well" I asked


"well ma'am"sahut revo


we got out of the car too


revo looked at his watch at 8.55 minutes, there were still 5 minutes left, I rushed to the toilet like I still had time.


A tall man with a navy blue shirt rolled up on my side as well as black material trousers came up to our dining table.


I also extended my hand to her


"joyce, sir" I said to edgar


"oh yeah, I'm edgar"sahut edgar


the presentation was done by revo, I helped him as needed, hoping to be a business partner


"ok ma'am joyce, I really like the presentation.I hope we can continue this cooperation" Edgar said as he shook my hand


"thank you, may we meet next time, we'll excuse you edgar, good afternoon" I said.


edgar smiled and replied to me with a nod of his head.


revo and I went back to the office before lunch. I got out of the car to the office lobby.


revo caught up to me quickly


"sorry ma'am, want to eat a canteen or in the office let me pesenin first" asked revo slowly


"please take away yes I eat at the office, oh yes pesenin nasi goreng yes. thanks yes rev"my


"well ma'am, I'll take you to mom's room later.I'm sorry ma'am"sahut revo


I continued my steps to my office.


at 15:45, I'll be home from work soon, I'll finish my work at the office.


my hp ringtone sounds loud


familiar number, I looked at my phone and picked it up.


"hello joyce,tar malem to bar g??"ask ester


"no ah males gw ama lu teler mulu ngerepotin"my mouth


"ih lu mah gitu,tar malem I picked ya. we rame-rame partynya" said ester


"who the hell?"much


"gw,keysia,bram,acel,rengga, same lu"sahut ester


"okay, sipppp bring what car?"much


"carry 2, car acel sm car gw"sahut ester


"ok waiting for me" my son


I tidied up the table and turned off the laptop and left the room


this is what I do not like the most in a metropolitan city, the road that is never empty from the vehicle. ahead of the office hours the highway is getting denser making the congestion longer and takes longer.
