Dusk For Nathan 2
64

Nathan devoured the fried rice that Dusk had served. Complete with egg ceplok and pickles are also crackers. Nathan is seen eating fast enough that he doesn't realize his mother and wife are paying attention to his unusual way of eating.

" Slowly, my dear." The twilight reminded Nathan gently and gently stroked Nathan's left hand.

" I'm sorry, Honey." Nathan said after swallowing a mouthful of fried rice. " Today I have to go to the project site. Maybe I'll be home tonight. You go to sleep first. I'm afraid you're sick waiting for me." Nathan Said.

" Where's Nath's project? I'm going to be home late." Ask Bu Fitri because Nathan is no longer used to coming home late.

" In Bogor, Mom. There's a little problem. I'm afraid I'll be home the other night because I'll solve that problem first. But I keep trying to get home as soon as possible." Nathan answered and at the same time gave an explanation so that there are no more questions.

" You went with Silvi?" Ask Dusk as they were heading towards the front door.

" Suff, Honey. He's a head office handle. Because I actually had a client meeting today. But the problem in Bogor is a little urgent." Nathan kissed his wife's forehead.

" Bravely. There's always someone waiting for you at home." Said Dusk releasing her husband to go to work with his sweet smile.

A trip that is not too jammed if the morning to the rainy city. Because many of the residents in the city were heading to the capital to work. Many times Nathan studied the report that two weeks ago was deposited by the project foreman and he did not misread the report. Nathan felt that something was awkward if what Randy was talking about was true.

The journey they took took less than two hours. He intentionally did not contact the project foreman for the check this time. Nathan took a deep breath of anger when he saw the project that should have started standing at least one floor above the ground.

" Morning, Sir." Sapa a well-built man approached Nathan in a hurry with a look of guilt.

" Why is it different from the result?" Nathan asked with eyes looking at the man sharply while giving the report the man had once given him.

" I'm sorry, sir." Said while bowing. His face was so scared.

" What's the matter exactly?" Nathan headed for the foreman's office.

" We're short on workers, sir." The answer is still with a face down.

" Since when?"

" Since..."

" In the report that you gave me our workers totaled 35. There are still many overtime." Stomach Nathan this time with emotions starting to explode. His chest was up and down trying to regulate his emotions.

" I'm sorry, sir." The foreman was getting scared.

" I don't like anyone to play with my beliefs." Nathan gritted his teeth. " You wait here." Commandments loud.

Nathan walked out of the office and noticed that the construction workers were working on each of his parts. None of them are lazy. Nathan approaches a worker who looks the most nimble at work.

" I'm sorry I interfered." Nathan said as he patted the man's shoulder gently who wanted to take the sack of cement sack.

The man turned his head towards Nathan and immediately nodded respectfully as it turned out that the one who patted his shoulder was his big boss. " What's up, sir?" Ask with a face down. I dare not look at Nathan's face.

Nathan smiled at the man's attitude. " What's your name?"

" The Word, sir." The answer is still with a face down.

" Gather your friends. Stop all activities. I want to talk." Nathan's orders in a polite tone. He greatly appreciated his workers especially those who worked in the field.

Nathan stared at the row of construction workers as if he was counting their numbers. Nathan took a breath and smiled to make the atmosphere a little more relaxed because he had noticed that their faces were tense all like people who were doing the final exam.

" How many workers are actually here?" Nathan asked one of the laborers standing in front of him.

" Thirty, Sir. But we're divided into two shifts. And every day there are some workers who take a day off." Answer the man in a loud voice.

" For us the assistant wage earners we get a hundred and thirty thousand." Answer a worker who is a little smaller than the Word.

" For experts?"

" We were paid a Dedi's pack of one hundred and seventy." Replied one of the men was sturdy but his body was not too big.

Nathan nodded and began to understand. He looked at the workers again. " Are your wages enough?"

Silent...

" Just answer. Are your wages enough?" Nathan asked once again urging them to answer.

" To be honest, our wages are below the market, sir. But we need this job for our family." Answer the Word while looking at Nathan.

Nathan smiled at the answer.

" From today on, I raise thirty thousand." Nathan said and was greeted with cheers from the workers. " Word. I'll wait for you at the center tomorrow. From tomorrow on, he's your new foreman." Nathan Said.

The man named Word was surprised to not believe what he had just heard. How could he be a foreman if he was still very minimal experience.

Word walked quickly to Nathan. With a downcast face he blocked the path of his big boss.

" What's up, Word?"

" Not me, sir. I have no experience." He was afraid he could not carry out his responsibilities.

" I'm sure you're capable. You are not alone. Someone will guide you. Once you get used to it you'll be let go."

" But, sir .."

" Don't disappoint me. And I try tomorrow I'll send ten more men." Nathan said and went into the office of the chief foreman to meet Dedi.

Dedi was still down when he saw Nathan coming in. Since then, he has been watching as Nathan talks to his workers. The angry look he always looked at Nathan.

" I will not prolong this. Maybe you have a very urgent need." Nathan said as he stared at Dedi sharply.

" Thank you, sir. I promise I'll change."

" Changed how?" Nathan asked as he watched the facial mimic shown by Dedi.

" I'll always give you a true report."

" No need." Nathan Sahut. " Sorry. From today on you I stop. I will not ask for the money you took. And I won't give you a severance." Nathan said in a cold tone.

" But, Sir. I've worked with you for years, Father." Dedi protested this time in a loud voice.

Nathan smiled at Dedi's emotionally burning attitude. " All right I give but give you back all the money you took from my company." Nathan stared intently at Dedi making the man silent a thousand languages.

" You give them thirty thousand in wages for one person a day. How many million for just one person in two months?! How many millions of dollars I have given for the purchase of building materials that I see now is far from the target!" Dedi was silent again and lowered.

" Mr. Dedi." Nathan looked more and more at the man sharply. " If I want to. Your severance won't cover enough of everything you've taken!" Nathan took a deep breath regulating his emotions.

" good, Sir. I'm gonna get out of here. I'm sorry I let you down." He said again and hurriedly came out of the office with a bag.

" Wait!" Nathan stopped Mr. Dedi's steps again.
