I Don't Understand
Meet back?
"Wait for what to come to sa?” mayla asked, giving the helmet to Raksa.
They have now arrived in front of the cafe they subscribe to every buy coffee, as usual their office friends or rather their seniors told them to buy coffee to soften later.
“unggu” replied Raksa, his hand took the helmet that Mayla thrust then he cantelkan in the rearview motor. Mayla who heard Raksa's reply only nodded,
She knits her steps and starts entering the cafe, Mayla realizes that there is a waitress by the door. Usually Mayla will just walk in without caring about the waitress that Mayla may always ignore her whereabouts.
"English breakfast with croissant is one"
Mayla walks to the counter table preparing to queue with the others. It had been almost five minutes before he stood up but the man in front of him had not completed his transaction.
Mayla snorted in annoyance at waiting for quite a while, if Mayla was not a good citizen, she might have taken the man in front of her from earlier. He's already standing up.
'The 'English breakfast? actually what coffee did he order, a long time ago'—batin Mayla pissed.
Mayla sighed trying to be patient again, but the man in front of her was not finished, making her even more upset. Mayla began to think about how to reprimand the man in front of her, to tell her that the queue was long and that the one who bought coffee was not just her.
Mayla checks her watch every now and then, ten minutes into Mayla's stand. People behind Mayla was already a little rowdy due to the man in front of her long enough, though Mayla can reprimand or just a trite base for example asking whether the man in front of her is finished or not.However Mayla chose to keep silent let her mind alone who is twitching.
'For a long time anyway'—batin Mayla.
Mayla breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the man in front of her had completed her transaction, her eyes continued to pay attention.
Mayla wondered if there was a problem with her head, why she kept looking at the man. Just know Mayla doesn't.
“the return pak” shouted the waiter was seen brandishing bond papers and also fifty thousand banknotes that seemed to belong to the man earlier.
“take aja” replied the man turned his head at a glance, then walked back to the cafe exit while holding a drink glass in his left hand.
“mba....maaf mba want to order what?” ask the waiter in front of Mayla, and pull Mayla's attention from her view.
“eh yes sorry mas.... I order , Matcha green tea 2, ice caffe latte 3 and 1 chamomile blend, all on behalf of Mayla” replied Mayla mentioning her order carefully, he reread the message the senior sent in his office.
While waiting for Mayla to spread her eyes around every corner of the cafe, Mayla has not been here for a long time, usually she will come here every weekend just to enjoy coffee and eliminate her saturation from work. But lately Mayla is very busy, the time is full for college and also her work.
His gaze fell on a table in every corner of the cafe. There was a small round table in black, with white engravings on each side, on top of which was a medium-sized glass jar containing brown balls. Even more interesting in the jar are some papers that say “have a nice day”, “smile baby!!”, “Love your self”, etc,”congratulation” and many more Mayla did not have time to read them all. The presence of chocolate jars actually adds to the sweet impression of the cafe. plus the endless music that makes anyone feel at home for a long time there.
Mayla was secretly a little amazed by the owner of the cafe, or the person who designed the cafe, because he seemed to show the meaning of the sweet monochrome color.
“is that chocolate edible?” mayla murmured her gaze could not be separated from the glass jars stored in every corner of the cafe.
“can mba"
"Eh"
"sorry I accidentally heard. If you want to please, the chocolate was deliberately stored there so that anyone who likes chocolate can easily take it. Chocolate is free if you want to please just take” after the waiter immediately, it seems he was used to answering sounds straightforward and clear.
One more thing that makes Mayla feel at home in the cafe besides the cafe is clean, said the waiter at the cafe was very friendly and polite.
“thank you, later I try” replied Mayla smiling at the waiter.
Free, anyone will be tempted by something free let alone chocolate. It is said that chocolate can make a person's mood back good, but not for Mayla. Because Mayla doesn't like chocolate very much. No matter how expensive the chocolate is, it's still chocolate, and Mayla doesn't like it very much. Mayla suddenly remembered Raksa.
Shortly after that call on her behalf was heard, Mayla immediately took her order, before out she took the time to pick up a brown ball in a jar that she could reach.
“long wait?” tanya Mayla walked towards Raksa while handing over her order to be stored in the motor box.
Instead of answering Raksa instead thrust his helmet, so that Mayla immediately wear it, while Raksa save their senior order into the motorcycle box.
"wear the helmet" said the youngest Arganta. Mayla was busy opening the brown ball he had taken, ignoring the words sibungsu Arganta. until the hands Raksa took over the helmet and put it on.
“sa want?” mayla asked, revealing a brown ball she had just opened in her right palm.
His brownish iris stared fixedly at the woman's face, making the one in the face feel clumsy mixed confused. without saying anything. he lowered his head to eat the chocolate in the palm of the hand, which was in the palm of the hand, makes the hand owner shocked because it collides with his lips.
"to be honest I don't like chocolate" said the youngest Arganta, his cheeks seemed to swell because of eating a brown ball in one swallow.
About twenty minutes from the cafe to the office, and during that time Mayla's mind was centered on the man.
'strange ko can think of the same man earlier yes, who is he???'—think Mayla.
...•••...
During the entrance to the meeting table Mayla did not release the attention of a man sitting in front, she even ignored the exposure that was being delivered Dimas earlier.
honestly when first entered Pisces— Meeting Room Andromeda—Mayla was surprised by the presence of new people in the meeting this time.
"may" whispered Raksa.
"yes, why sa?" mayla said while looking at her.
"don't look at it".
"look yeah?" ask Mayla. The Raksa just kept silent and did not respond. Clearly it seems possible that the eyes of Mayla a laser person sitting in front of it is already hollow from earlier.
“Pak!”, Rega raised his hand to make the attention of all meeting members directed to him. Dimas nodded in response. When at the meeting table they all agreed to call Dimas with the designation “pak” considering the rank of Dimas is much higher than them.
"please Rega"
“my suggestion, how about we introduce first Mr. Arseno, because since earlier many meeting employees were curious” said Rega. Make all employees there including Mayla a little enthusiastic looking forward to it.
"arseno who?"
"that's the one sitting in Arsatya's chair?"
"yes, replacement Arsatya sir yes"
"so handsome"
"yes, be at home if gini boss"
"yes clear, not bored if in the office"
More or less like that whispered some meeting members who accidentally heard Mayla.
“right Mr. Rega, thank you for reminding me. I personally apologize for not introducing him first because the time was almost noon was feared exposure was not enough" said Dimas explained because it was before the Meeting, when the time was close, Arseno who should be the meeting leader is still not coming then replaced by Dimas according to the weekly meeting leader schedule.
"please Mr. Arseno the time and place I send you" Dimas said again.
"Thank you, Mr. Dimas, good morning by noon, I apologized earlier because I came late at my first meeting with Andromeda employees, because unexpectedly there was a little obstacle. Introduce me Arseno Jenggala Sadewa just call Arseno, as you can see I'm the new leader Andromeda replace Mr Arsatya, anyone want to ask?" said Arseno, from her voice Mayla can guess Arseno is a straightforward adult male.
'oh his name is Arseno' —batin Mayla.
"do you have a partner?" neira asked who made all pairs of eyes there directly aimed at him. Arseno smiled at a glance, looking to sigh before saying
"i happened to be a widower, trying to change my ex-wife?" arseno warms the atmosphere. Arseno's answer had managed to divert the tense atmosphere at the meeting table.proven now some female employees there whisper talking about it, but different again with Mayla who did not take a look at the slightest item, why because Arseno is the guy who was— The guy who sucks that makes him sore because of waiting. Despite only a glimpse, Mayla can get to know, if she is the same man. Because on the same day they met.
"what age are your parents?" ask one of the participants at the meeting table. back the leader reviewed a smile before saying
"want two years, still anyone curious about me?", it seems that no one asked Arseno again said
"good because there is nothing to ask again, can we continue the delayed exposure earlier? Please continue Mr. Dimas, thank you for the time" concluded Arseno. Dimas immediately stood in for Arseno and began to resume his exposure.
"how is it clear? Someone wants to ask?—Oh yes please Mr Raksa" said Dimas when he saw Raksa raised his hand to ask.
“Ma—Pak I want to ask, this is a big event Andromeda why choose indoor why not outdoor only sir?” tanya Raksa, without her realizing the question just now was the representative of the entire head of the current meeting members.
"good Mercury thanks for the question" Dimas said.
"this is why we choose indoor because now the season can not be predicted that it will rain or not happen for safety together we decided to choose indoor" replied Dimas
"pak sorry really said Mr. Raksa that, the indoor bugdet is also great while outdoor I think less than indoor" said one of the other employees—Reno.
"right once sir especially if the indoor to rent the building we have to be a month or not a week before the event.it is also rare sir who received suddenly sir, and must have been booked plus DP. plus the building or hotel around here is very difficult and far away" added one of the other employees—Hendrian.
"before I answer anything else you want to ask or add?" ask Dimas.
"i sir, I just want to add I agree with Mr. Raksa's advice. If the outdoor is not the place is also wider and a lot around here the field or land is still large sir" added Agita.
Mayla is still focused on what she sees. Arseno. Not even realizing that, Rega also noticed how Mayla looked at Arseno.
“Pak Dimas sorry my permission to answer may sir" said Arseno. When Agita finished voicing her opinion earlier. Dimas turned his head then nodded and invited Arseno to answer.
"first of all thank you, for the advice of all of you I accommodated first, well here I will answer the reason for choosing indoor.bener said Mr. Dimas, weather became the first reason why I chose indoor. and for the building does remember here most shop-shops and cafes then it is very difficult to find buildings and hotels so here I choose a cafe for the event later. And as for the budget you mentioned earlier, Calm down I calculated with the Corvus Division before meeting you at the meeting table now. How can anyone ask?" arseno explained at length. No one asked everything was silent, because Arseno answered clearly and straightforwardly.
Right after, the sound of the door opening attracted the attention of everyone in the meeting room. On the doorstep, a handsome man with shoulder-length black hair stood looking at Arseno at a glance.
"who's that?"
"new person or new employee"
"what division?"
'wasn't he the man back then?'
"sorry I'm late" he said as he walked towards the empty chair, he tied some of his hair back.
Deheman Arseno returned the shock from the man's arrival, spontaneously all attention immediately directed back to him.
"introduce yourself first, don't sit down immediately" said Arseno. The man then stood up to see one by one the members of the meeting there without hesitation.
"introduce me Arsaka. Arsaka Liandanu Sadewa" he said singakat.
"yes, the hair is different"
"still one family time"
more or less like that the noise at the meeting table, just when Arsaka finished introducing himself earlier.
"saka" muttered Raksa when his views collided with Arsaka. Mayla turned her head that accidentally heard Raksa mutter.
"you know him sa?" mayla asked, Raksa nodded.
"i've apologized for the delay. Arsaka is one of the representatives of the band that will fill the Andromeda event later" Arseno said explaining Arsaka's presence in the middle of the meeting.
"sorry sir before, you're sister brother. Does it look similar?" ask Agita suddenly.
Make all the women meeting participants look enthusiastic waiting for answers.
"nga" this answer came from Arsaka.
"yes, she's my sister" is this answer coming out of Arseno.
"oh pantes sir you guys are both handsome" said Neira who is possessed by agita. Rega and Dimas just shook their heads to see the behavior of their employees.
Mayla had only noticed every exposure Arseno did not voice opinions like other employees, considering he was just a freelancer in Andromeda once in a while he just nodded while writing down some material that felt important to him.
Not feeling the meeting was completed one by one the members of the meeting began to leave his seat, so too Mayla.
...•••...
"you will be the same Mayla must want a WFO yes do not WFH first because there are events that must be very busy nih your seniors" said Dimas right when they reached Lacerta.
"yes, Dim, I don't think, but do you want to be a WFO?" ask Rega while rendering in her cubicle.
Agita—the woman exclaimed in spirit, while pulling the chair.
"must want dong, you're the only hope of lacerta" he said dramatically
"eh, where do you keep your coffee?" ask Neira. Raksa who had been silent did not respond then moved towards the pantry.
"Why is your brother in trouble, why is he silent from now on?" neira asked astonished at the lack of Raksa.
"you know, after all he is rich so rarely talk" replied Dimas while walking his shirt.
"varying but ka, since Raksa was in a bad mood" added Mayla his gaze he directed to Pantri saw Raksa.
"i'm not the same as Raksa ngeh, especially Mayla who is rich in stamps every day, not to be separated" Agita said. Dimas seemed to concern himself with his work.
"don't gossip, the person in front of you can ask directly" said Raksa while storing some coffee there.
"this is your catch" he added, taking one coffee which he then brought his shirt.
"grooze again" said Neira, who is nicknamed Agita.
"yeh yes this is we want to be added employees?" tanya Agita looked towards Rega
"ask your division heads that it's not me" Rega said, pointing her chin at Dimas' cubicle.
"this is actually Arseno's proposal because the employees in our division are the fewest" said Dimas without turning to Arganta's eldest son was still busy with his computer.
Lacerta is indeed one of the fewest divisions of employees considering the difficulty of finding workers who are proficient in the field of script editors. Although it has been added freelancers—Mayla and Raksa—division is still relatively little compared to the other Andromeda Division one of them Trianggulum (IT), pegasus (Marketing), and, and perseus (Creative) who occupy the first row of employees most Andromeda.the second there is Corvus (General) then Lacerta (editor) and followed by Aries (personnel).
"yes actually said Dimas according to Arseno we should add people because we will be metered if someday our application is really sliced" said Rega.
hearing the words of Rega just now Raksa turned to frown in confusion while saying
"how's bang released?" raksa
"does it mean sliced in the playstore or appstore?" mayla asked reassuringly.
"it will be difficult if it is, because it has been the experience of some andromeda leaders did not manage to get the approval of the HO" Agita said
"right mas, said mba agit and again the IT we are still doing development. What possible?" motion of Mercury
"keep your opinion for pisces yes, let's say it directly with Arseno, the problem is agreed or not see only tomorrow. Now let's go to cassiopea we rest the same prayer first" concluded Dimas, said, Cassiopea can be said Andromeda cafeteria there usually provides food and drinks for employees besides there is also a mushola.
"why? you doubt Arseno sa" asked Dimas, turning to Raksa.
"last time I saw you doubting it" he added.
"not to doubt just that, we also have to think of the IT mas what mas already discussed previously with the IT?" ask Raksa later.
"Not yet, we will see it later on the meeting table" said Dimas.
"oh yes dim ko I see, you already know each other" asked Neira.
"they were one Junior High School in one class before, but just like SMA bang Seno to Bandung moved" replied Raksa.
"ko moved sa?" mayla asked curiously.
"i don't know" replied Raksa.
"why move Dim?" tanya Neira threw a question towards Dimas who was now starting to move
"It's not like only Arseno knows, it's Ga" Dimas replied in a lie. Rega nodded. Just now Dimas will invite his employees to eat suddenly someone knocked on the main door making all look at it simultaneously.
"it was once the lacerta division, the other employees in your cafeteria were still inside. again on what?" ask Arseno on the doorstep.
"uh sir Arseno, this is going out sir" said Agita was not nice because they had just talked about the new boss andromeda.
"what are you doing here, No?" ask Dimas.
"lady Saka Dim, my sister is in a meeting and she didn't say where she was going" replied Arseno.
"home time no" said Rega. Arseno shook her head
"the motor is still there ga, definitely still around here" replied Arseno.
"eating time to the cafeteria bang or smoking times on the emergency stairs" Raksa said shortly after he left. Arseno was silent for a moment before she calmed down again.
"you already dropped into the cafeteria later the food ran out I want to find Saka first" said Arseno.
...•••...
Mayla snorted as the contents of her draft piled back up, only then did she finish yesterday why her draft was piling up again. It was like a dirty laundry that never went to wash, piling up nonstop. Mayla made lazy to see it. sighing she then moved after turning off her computer.
Every night some Andromeda employees will choose the stairs rather than the elevator because it is said to happen mystical things in it. Whether it is true or not, no one knows. It's just that since the story of the mystical elevator spread, rarely employees use the elevator at night.
he walked up and down the stairs before a cry came up from the stairs below.
"co just got home at this hour? Which one of the Raksa?", he's Arsaka
"Eh you? ja. Raksa seems to have business" answered mayla lying, because in fact she does not know where sibungsu Arganta.
Arsaka is seen nodding as he occasionally sips his cigarette.
"you haven't come home yet, wasn't Mr Arseno nyariin you?" mayla asked why her legs did not dare to go down the next ladder.
Arsaka turned his head for a while before he flanked the cigarette on the side of his lips, while Mayla was still fluttering on the top stairs.
"you saw that fight, didn't you, May?" asked Arsaka sibungsu swadewa was seen throwing his cigarette butts carelessly, then began to climb the stairs seen approaching Mayla. While Mayla just frowned confused by the intentions of the youngest self.
"i know you saw it" Arsaka said as he climbed the stairs one by one.
"at three o'clock in the afternoon under the emergency stairs, Arseno and I had a big fight. And you're the only one who saw our quarrel" the little one said pointing to the wound at the corner of his slightly torn lip, why make Mayla a little scared with the tone of Sadewa's sibungsu speech that seems cold and cornering.
"that's me" Mayla was confused she had to answer whether her legs continued to step back as Arsaka stepped forward up the stairs, she did see the two Sadewa brothers' intense quarrels this afternoon.
Arsaka chuckled as he continued to knit a step towards Mayla, while the woman only hoped someone would come suddenly. But alas, just when his back touched the wall he resigned. He just hopes his meeting with Arsaka is not a bad one.
Arsaka stood two steps away from her. The youngest self looked at the frightened woman in front of him. Mayla looked up and looked up at Arsaka. Suddenly Arsaka eroded the distance leaning his body closer to mayla's ears,
"why should we meet again may" he said, Mayla frowned not dare to turn her head because of Arsaka's position is very close.
"Should we meet again Mayla Nirwana Azzara?" asked Arsaka while withdrawing.Mayla still flinching her mind blank.
"You want me to drive May home" Arsaka bargained, Mayla shook her head, making a noise,
"E..eng.ga no, ojol I'm in front of the problem" replied Mayla a hundred percent lie.
"be careful when you go home, oh yes and it seems.we will see you often" Arsaka said as he passed, leaving a question to Mayla's mind. Why does Arsaka know his full name?
Mayla was still there until the sound of the door closing, indicating that the youngest was out of the emergency stairs.
Meet the cast :
ARSACAS
ARSENO
