Interviews


Ryan Alfaiz's....


22 Years old, born in Indonesia, Tegal city. A former member of the country's secret special forces (Donahue), Ryan is given the title of 'eternal warrior'... A title that may be excessive because humans cannot be separated from death.


But Ryan Alfariz had already gone through many battles since graduating from the secret academy set up by the National Land Agency and he was still able to survive when he had to face dozens of enemies alone on the battlefield.


Donahue's secret military academy, formed in the old order, takes in, nurtures and trains abandoned children who have no family.


Physical training, discipline, combat tactics, snipers, martial arts skills, escape and also survival. It became the educational curriculum of the Donahue Secret academy.


Every graduate of the academy would automatically enter into being one of the members of the secret forces. One person from the special forces would be equal in value to fifty soldiers.


If anyone is caught and interrogated by the enemy, they are obliged not to divulge state secrets, even death is their only option.


Ryan became the best graduate ever, a killing machine, in battle he was always able to survive, even though all his friends were killed by the enemy.


Until Ryan declares himself to quit the Donahue special forces and live life like a society in general.


One Week ago....


A job offer came from a special forces captain who did have a relationship with Ryan like a brother.


As a person who only has the ability in the fight, of course, ordinary work is not too figure, although physically resilient and can work 24 hours tirelessly, he said, but the mental pressure from superiors and a small salary make Ryan not too comfortable.


In his mind like...."I find it easier to kill 50 people in a war than to hear all the boss's ravings."


Without the need to waste the opportunity because it has been five months unemployed and only spend his savings. Ryan came to an office to apply for an interview.


At that place Ryan did not meet directly with the boss, because he is in America now, so the job interview was handed over to his assistant.


A beautiful woman named Ernie, as the personal assistant of the big boss where Soldier applied for a job.


"Who told you about this job ?."


"From captain Zernad Salaman."


"Ah yes, yes the boss had indeed asked his acquaintances in the special forces, about the person who would work as a bodyguard for Miss Rea." Answer Ernie.


If Ryan is accepted to work as a bodyguard, he has prepared a payroll, transportation costs, health benefits and the most important thing for Ryan is to get money to eat three times a day.


"Where are you working ?"


Ryan was silent, he thought a little. There was so much he had been working on after he got out of the military, that he did not know where to start.


But Ryan tried to remember one by one.


"A lot, Mom." Ryan answers an interview from Ernie.


"For example ?.


"I used to work in a pawnshop."


"Excellent.as a bill-counter or a depollector ?."


"No, Mom." Ryan replied with a small smile.


"As ?."


"Parker."


"Oh, that's pretty steady."


As if not stopping for one question, Ernie asked again..."Besides that ?."


"In the field of business discuss also." Ryan smiled shyly.


"Oh, as a turntable operator ?." Guess it.


"No, Mom."


"As ?."


"Pickle speker."


"Good, good... Besides that ?."


Ryan doesn't know how good Ernie thinks he is. Ryan continued to answer.


"On a sunflower snack CV, ma'am."


"Ah, good!, Kon quality section... Sorry, Control."


I don't know what Ryan would think if Yuna's mother mispronounced her.


"No Ma'am. The selesman section of I'm in terminal stalls."


"On CV Electric Zena, Bu.” Answer Ryan.


"In the maintenance department, maybe ?."


"No Ma'am. In the wall."


"Enoughly interesting. There may be a lot of challenges in that job, right ?."


"That's how Mom, once fell from the third floor." Ryan replied a little embarrassed.


"Is the floor okay ?."


"Smatch a little ma'am."


"Maybe another one ?."


"In the cleaning business, Mom."


"Oh, as a cleaning service manager ?."


Ryan himself just found out that cleaning service has a position as a manager.


"No, Ma. As a WC sucker."


“Two words from me, You are Awesome !."


It seems that Ernie is a person who is not too concerned about where they work, what kind of position they get, and the length of time Ryan works, as long as they want to try, then Ernie looks up their struggle.


Ryan's spirit began to explode hearing the praises of Ernie, until Ryan felt confident if it was a positive signal for him to be accepted at work.


"Last degree if I may know ?." Ernie asked back.


This makes Ryan a little confused because in his life, he didn't really go through school and that ....


"Maybe the equivalent of High School." Answer the doubted soldier.


"But, too, not bad."


Ryan's relief was implied from the look on his face with a loose smile...."Thank you, Mom."


"Appointments ?."


"It used to be ideal, not anymore, Mom."


"Oh, what was the goal ?."


"Pengin be a doctor Mom, like dad."


"Oh, unexpectedly, your father is a doctor."


"Not Mom, I'm a doctor too." Ryan replied a little embarrassed.


"Feed !."


"Thank you, Mom."


"okay." The attractive mother looked at Ryan with a stern face for a while.


Then he said, "You I accept." Ryan's surprise isn't artificial.


"Wait for sure ...."


"From the beginning, the boss already knows your background from captain Zernad Salaman, so you could say there is nothing to doubt."


"What is the need for all questions just now." A little disappointed Ryan for being too confident if he does have the ability in interviews.


Where in reality, this is tantamount to using insider power with the help of captain Zernad Salaman.


"Next week you're going to America to meet our boss."


"Wait for America, that's a long way away."


"Boss' son, went to Harvard University, so you have to keep him there." Ernie answered, giving an envelope with money and a home address.


With no other choice, Ryan must accept the job to survive, as he is unlikely to return to the military.


And now....


Ryan was at the table to confront one middle-aged man in a suit and tie.


"Well, Ryan Alfariz, I've read all your reports from Ernie and captain Zernad Salaman, from now on you'll be my daughter's bodyguard, Rea."


"Ready, go ahead, Mr. Dirgan Mavendra." Ryan replied with a firm and respectful attitude.
