Chasing you with Pellets
1. Intentionally Friends

Indri was seen running small down the stairs so that he could immediately follow his colleagues who seemed to be talking in the office yard.

"Sorry late. The elevator's dead ...!" indri lantang.

Six of Indri's friends turned their heads and snorted in annoyance. How not. This was not the first time the beautiful curly-haired girl was late.

"Udah ordinary. Kan Lo the queen is late," said Vinda while sneering.

"Kan I'm sorry Win..," said Indri unkindly.

"Now, don't argue anymore. So not lunch ?. Ten minutes of rest time has been wasted !" reprimand Adam while glancing at the clock on his wrist.

"So doonngg ...!" six other people said together to make Adam smile.

"Then let's hunt down the road !" take Adam out loud while opening the door of his service car.

Six of Adam's colleagues, including Indri, rushed to follow and entered the official car driven by Adam. Shortly thereafter the white service car drove quickly away from the office yard.

A car pulled over at a restaurant and seven passengers got off one by one. Then they stepped inside the restaurant and were greeted by the waiter of the restaurant in a friendly manner.

"On behalf of Adam Baihaqi Mbak ...," said Adam.

"Oh well. Please come over here, sir," said the waiter as he stepped toward the place that Adam had booked before.

The sixth face of Adam's colleagues seemed to sparkle knowing the food was ready to be presented on the table. They are happy because they do not have to wait long and can immediately execute the dish that has been served.

"Or if we are hungry Dam," said Rudi, staring enthusiastically at the dish.

"You know what, we're here to eat Rud. Actually want to let you pesen yourself earlier. But because we're late, yes I had to pesenin first. Sorry if it doesn't suit your taste," said Adam as he began to bribe food into his mouth.

"Father Dam, this is delicious. Yes, yes, it's temen-temen ...?" rudi asked as he looked at his five friends one by one.

"Yes ..," said five of Rudi's colleagues with full mouths.

Rudi just shook his head seeing his friend had been busy with their respective food.

The seven men continued their lunch. The familiar and warm atmosphere colors the table inhabited by Adam, Rudi, Indri, Winda, Dinar, Toriq and Tasya. Sometimes laughter is heard when one of them comments on the story of Tasya the secretary.

"It's a good thing that Boss Lo is out of the country now. If you do, you will not be able to follow us and be treated to lunch with Mas Adam," Dinar said.

"Yes. I have to keep the Boss going wherever he goes" Tasya said.

"It's not good, yes. You can have lunch at an expensive restaurant every day. Bosnian if the meeting is definitely in an expensive and good place," said Winda.

"At first I thought it was Win, but what I did was Zonk !" sahut Tasya while grunting annoyed.

"Zonk how do you mean Lo ?" ask Indri not understand.

"We did meet in a fancy place, but we didn't have lunch there. The reason the boss said it was not good because his wife had sent him lunch. The tired yeah I also because abis naro file I have to run to the cafeteria for lunch. Alone, because usually fit nyampe office hours rest is finished," said Tasya.

"But Lo's lunch is free alias paid the same Boss right Sya ?" ask Toriq.

"Boro-boro Riq !. I eat alone and pay for it myself !" sahut Tasya was upset to make all his colleagues laugh amusedly.

That is one of the contents of the conversation that occurred among the seven employees of PT. DIAMONDs that become close due to the situation.

PT. DIAMOND is engaged in construction and heavy equipment. The company is led by an iron-fisted man named Benzo, a man of German descent who is often called 'Boss' by his employees.

Adam and Rudi are the managers in the company. If Adam is the Personnel Manager, then Rudi is the Finance Manager. They are close because in addition to having studied at the same university, they are also often involved in company meetings to discuss various things that occur in the company.

Indri, Dinar and Winda are regular employees in the Finance Division while Toriq is the Head of the warehouse.

The seven of them became close starting from the earthquake that hit Jakarta. Not a large earthquake but the tremors are enough to panic women employees. Moreover, the earthquake occurred during working hours and they were in a multi-storey building.

While running he saw Winda, Indri and Dinar who were frightened in front of the elevator. It seems they want to get off using the elevator but are forced to wait because the elevator first closed.

"You need to take the elevator. It's the third floor, through the stairs !" take Toriq out loud.

Without thinking, Indri and Dinar followed Toriq who ran towards the emergency door to the stairs.

It turned out that there they met with Rudi and Adam who immediately pulled over and allowed the three women to go down first. As he was about to close the door, Adam saw Tasya who was running away in confusion.

"Here is Ma'am !" call Adam.

Tasya turned and rushed over to Adam. But unfortunately the ceiling of the room just above the emergency door collapsed and almost hit Tasya. Luckily Adam managed to pull Tasya's hand until the ceiling fell behind Tasya's body.

Hand in hand Adam and Tasya ran down the stairs. When they almost arrived on the ground floor, again they faced obstacles because the door was suddenly locked.

Adam tried to break down the door while calling Rudi repeatedly. Unfortunately because of too panic, Rudi did not hear Adam's call.

Indri who walked last seemed to hear the voice of Adam turned his head and called his colleagues.

"Ntar first Win. Someone's trapped inside !" indri said in panic while pulling up Winda's arm.

"Ga there's nobody Dri. We're the only ones who passed that ladder !" sahut Winda while trying to pull Indri's hand to stay away from the emergency door.

"But there's someone else Win. Let's help you !" indri insisted.

Toriq who heard the screams of Winda and Indri stopped running and approached the two. After understanding what was being argued, Toriq immediately approached the door and tried to break it.

"Why did they stop ?" asked Rudi gusar.

"She said there's a key sir !" sahut Dinar while turning towards Winda and Indri.

Rudi who was surprised when he realized Adam was not with them also rushed to run towards the emergency door.He helped Toriq break the door.

"Stay away from Dam's door !" pinta Rudi's.

"Yes Rud !" adam from behind the door.

Rudi and Toriq broke down the door. But apparently the door was too strong to force Indri, Winda and Dinar to help break the door.

"Count number three. One ... two .. trigaa ...!" toriq said loudly.

"Braaakkk .. gubrakkk ...!"

The door was broken and made the seven people cheer. Afterwards they ran out while holding hands and laughing.

Arriving in the courtyard they saw many employees had gathered with panicked faces. There they also got word if the elevator broke down and some people were trapped inside.

"Everybody would want to step down from the top floor and not consider the power of the elevator. Because it was too heavy, the elevator could not move and stuck in the middle" Toriq said.

"Rubber. Lucky we passed the emergency stairs earlier," said Rudi.

"Yes. Although the splinter is locked as well but it is much better. Yes, Ma'am ..," said Adam, staring at Tasya.

"Tasiah. Call me Tasya aja ..," pinta Tasya with a smile.

Then the seven of them introduced themselves and shook hands as a greeting.

After that day they often meet to just have a casual conversation, whether at the office or at lunch hour like now. Without them knowing it makes their relationship closer.
