A few days after the second dream, he more often spent dusk and dawn on the beach or port.
He felt calm when the sun showed his shade. There is neither strong nor weak. The light always delivers warmth at the turn of time.
“Rei, soon to meet.” Jefri Baapu's secretary reminded him.
He woke up from his daydream. Then say, “Oke, Jef. Thanks,” her smile expands.
Meeting with shareholders of PT. The incidentally KNS is a relative of Kamaru. Will discuss the inauguration and launch of a new passenger ship route Gorontalo Port-Benoa Port, Bali. Go Home (PP).
He had asked Baapu's permission not to participate in the meeting. But Baapu forced him.
“This is an important meeting. You must attend.” So said Baapu after the car that took them left the house to the office this morning.
The atmosphere in the meeting room on the 3rd floor was already full. The shareholders and top brass of KNS have come. He sat to the right of Baapu. Uncle Tilamuta on the left. Next to my uncle is Aunt Kabila.
Uncle Dambea sat behind the baapu.
The meeting was opened by Uncle Dambea as a moderator. Then explain the agenda of today's meeting.
The inauguration and launch of the passenger ship is scheduled for next week. And the next day will sail for the first time to the Port of Benoa, Bali. Promo prices are applied for the first 100 bookers since the ad aired in various media one month ago.
Then the meeting continued with the granting of shares owned by Baapu and neene by 65 percent. With 25 percent details left to Kenichi Estiawan Prasetyo. And 35 percent to Kirei Fitriya Tsabita. While 5 percent remains the property of Idrus Kamaru.
The commissioner's position was transferred to Tilamuta Kamaru. Who hold shares of 15 percent. And Kabila Kamaru served as Director holding a 9 percent stake.
Furthermore Uncle Dambea was appointed deputy director to accompany Aunt Kabila. While Laira occupies the marketing manager in place of Aunt Kabila.
Appointment of office and formal devolution of authority announced and ratified. Witnessed by general shareholders as much as 11 percent owned by 6 people.
The legal force of 2 people showed the legal papers on the projector screen. All shareholders know.
The meeting's over. All the meeting participants congratulated and shook the hands of Tilamuta, Kabila, Uncle Dambea and, Laira. Including himself.
“Congratulations, Uncle ..” Say it with a smile. Only nods by Tilamuta.
While Kabila smiles meaningfully, “Come occasionally even if you only see your assets.”
Yes, he has decided that he accepts the granting of KNS stock assets. But not with the commissioner. At first he refused. How could Baapu only have a 5 percent stake in KNS. While himself?
“Five percent is enough for old age waiting time,” so said baapu last night gather Uncle Tilamuta and his only child, Aunt Kabila, himself, Uncle Dambea and, the law enforcement baapu.
While Uncle Tilamuta's son served as Director at PT. Kurenai Metal's. Another case of three children Bibi Kabila who still have education.
“Yamo hope you can accept this decision. Kitorang are all brothers. Treasure, position and power are not everything.”
“There are still 40 percent Baapu shares in PT. Kurenai Metal's. If Baapu and Neene no longer exist ..”
He nodded, disagreeing.
“The stock belongs to Tilamut and Kabila. And 5 percent on KNS will be taken over by Kamaru foundation.”

In the afternoon he came to the port with Baapu. Standing in front of KM. KF STAR is dominated by red paint. The passenger motor boat has a capacity of 1000 people. Which will be unveiled in the next two days.
Some of the workforce is still back and forth completing the work that lives finishing.
Baapu smiled proudly.
“I have fulfilled my promise.”
“For your beloved son,”
“Also my beloved grandson.”
He held the baapu hand. “Thank you, Baapu.”
Those old eyes were glazed over.
“Your father there must also be smiling happily ...”
“Only this can baapu give to last time. Hopefully we can get together. Without any splits and partings.”
Baapu shed his tears. He also dissolved in a moment. Before they boarded the ship.
They boarded the ship accompanied by Captain Lukita as Nahkoda KM. KF STARS. Hendra is also the chief officer. Through the ramp door, they explore room by room looking at the facilities provided by KF STAR.
Remembering baapu with physical limitations. They finished the boat tour that day. Right at sunset.
Arriving at the baapu residence, neene had greeted them on the front porch.
After dinner, they talked for a while. While kneading the feet of the baapu who was soaking in warm salt water. The goal is to eliminate aches, relax the muscles of the feet, heels and soles of the feet. In addition, it can also dilate blood vessels so that circulation becomes smooth.
Therapy is usually done if baapu after doing physical activities that drain his energy. Like this afternoon when they had to see and monitor the readiness of the new ship launch event.
“Already, Rei .. ngana rest.” Neene said that came carrying a small towel to dry the baapu legs.
“Liar, Rei, Ne.” He asked for the towel from Neene's hand.
Wash your feet with fresh warm water, then dry them with a towel while massaging.
“Usually Asti helped Neene,” neene said.
“Baapu's grandson is suitable to be a therapist rather than a journalist.”
It's thawing.
“Sadly ... Rei is not a therapist or a journalist. But bourgeois unemployment.” I'm arrogant.
They were laughing together. It's an atmosphere that will be sorely missed someday.
“In the meantime this house will be quiet again,” Baapu leaning his back to the back. There's a cavity of sadness there.
“Neene will surely miss you.” Timpal Neene was sitting on the sofa next to him.
“We all must have missed you ..” Baapu.
Instantly his heart rippled. Seeing a couple who love each other so much in their old age.
“Rei also still wants to stay here.” Legally. Accompanying the days of those who will somehow be realized again.
“Why are you here? Your mother, Ken and Danang need you. After all, your passion is not in this field. Baapu has been happy 2 months you accompanied us.”
“If Baapu and Neene miss, just call. Rei is definitely coming.”

KM inauguration and launch day. KF STAR has arrived. Everyone at KNS is busy. No exception to him. Because it is the icon as well as the largest shareholder in KNS.
Ken came yesterday afternoon. But not with mom. Because my mother is not feeling well.
“A sick delay?” Asked on the phone when Ken was about to leave for Gorontalo.
“Don't cape. Enough rest. No need to go to the store. All work is delegated to Tin and Numi. Anyway Mother at home enough rest. No need to participate in the activities of complex mothers first.” The message is like a train car.
While the mother across there who heard it only sounded sigh.
“Rei, that's your message don't use comma?” Seloroh.
He became upset, his concerns were even responded to joking mother. Although her lips pursed a few inches, mother will not know.
In the afternoon he and Laira pick up Ken at Jalaluddin Gorontalo Airport.
“Crazy, yes .. 1 hour wait until the heat of his ass,” his protest is upset. Because the plane that Ken boarded experienced a delay in Jakarta.
“Don't mistake me. But the airline had a technical error. Thankfully, it is also here. Try if until here stay name, surely you cry jeerritan ...” Elak Ken.
“Iissh ... mouth not braked!” He pulled Ken's back from behind. Her brother walked first in front of her with Laira. Fun chatting. While he's like he's not considered, groping Ken's suitcase in the back alone.
“Feel to be a pelvicist,” he quipped.
“Eh,” Laira stop, “sini let me take it.”
“No need, I'm aja!” Ken first snatched the suitcase from his hand.
“Kalo is not sincere, say aja.” Ketus Ken's.
“Lagian, why the hell came mepet terribly. Long day cake! I already know the event tomorrow morning, this comes mepet.” All the way to the car park.
“Working sister, my dear sister.” Ken Sahut. They've been sitting in the car. Ken sat next to Laira who was driving. While he sits in the back seat.
Laira drove the car slowly leaving the airport area.
“This is also a permit for only 9 days. Not allowed to add, but if it can be accelerated even.”
“Hah! How can!” Exclaims.
“Ya, can. His name is cooperation people.”
And that night he and Ken chatted at what time in his room. It was clear he was asleep. When I woke up in the morning, Ken was no longer there.
Now they sit in the row with the top brass of the KNS and regional officials. The guest chair is also full.
He, Ken, Uncle Tilamuta and Aunt Kabila stood behind the baapu during the ribbon-cutting procession.
“... KM. Kirei Fitriya Star or KM. KF STAR I dedicate to my grandson,” said baapu at the end of his speech while pointing to him.
He also stands. Bending his body while cupping his hands.
The beating of traditional polopalo musical instruments and the release of gas balloons became the last session of the inauguration of the day. Before the invited guests are invited to tour around to see the situation in the ship.
“This ship will sail through the track quite long. It passes through 10 cities and 7 provinces,” Captain Lukita explained.
“Gorontalo-Luwuk-Kendari-Raha-BauBau-Makassar-Labuhan Bajo-Bima Sumbawa-Ampanan Lembar and ends at Benoa Bali. Then it will return to Gorontalo.”
The group headed to the 3rd floor, “This ship has a length of 186 meters. Passenger capacity 1000 people. Vehicle capacity 265 units car and truck.”
They see room facilities, “There are 4 classes we offer. VIP Class, 1st and 2nd class. Economy class on the 2nd floor. All are equipped with toilets. Also equipped with an elevator for access each floor to make it faster.”
Captain Lukita led the party towards the end of the 2nd floor deck. Viewing various entertainment facilities, “Entertainment available from mini cinema, playground, mini market, restaurants, cafes and bars and gym. Equipped also musala for worship.”
Now the group is invited to the outdoor facilities. On the side of the deck.
He and Ken went to the top building. Where there is a boat bridge.
“Any sail?” His challenge.
Ken clucked hard enough, “Make what a 9-day leave. If not to obey the will of Queen KNS?” Ken Cibir. And a second later chuckled when he saw his face annoyed.
“Let’s begin this adventure (let's start this adventure).” Sergei Ken.
The wind blew away the long dress she was wearing. Her hair neatly arranged in the loop was now random and messy.
He stretched out both his hands. Closed his eyes. Breathe and breathe slowly.
“Anytime to meet Danang?” Ask Ken without looking at him.
Ken actually hummed indifferently after throwing the question, his hand grasping the railing of iron. And his body was leaning against the rising sun.

She expected the world
But it's flew away from her sleep, and dream of...
