EPS128 DON'T BELIEVE ME
As the wise man said, the world is a trick. Everything that is seen by the eyes is often not in accordance with reality. But the heart always tells the truth. Never hide a lie because the truth will always find its way. Like a shadow that always finds its owner when the cloudy leaves.
Pranaja's eyes look sparkling at Anastassya Pramono's words.
“Seriously? You're gonna promote me to your father?”
Ana nodded her head excitedly.
“What's your qualification?”
“I? High School diploma, college has not been run. But I'm willing to work anything.”
Ana shook her head while laughing.
“Lecture has not been dizzy looking for work. Many who have graduated still do not get a job. Huh, indeed strange man.”
“Thus, I want to find as much experience in the world of work. Let when I graduate later I am mentally ready to face the real life.”
Pranaja's words were enough to amaze Ana. He had not expected the young man's thoughts to be so mature. Even though usually children their age are bitter to use various facilities provided by their parents. Including himself.
“Then what should I promote?” the girl said later.
Pranaja pondered for a moment. Then shook his head.
“If it troubles you, you don't have to do it,” he said. “Partially I also do not like to get a job because of the element of friendship. I want to be judged for my abilities, not for our closeness.”
“Why?”
“I will never have pride. And it's also unfair to people who are better than me.”
Ana smiled broadly.
“Wah, great! It fits so prospective husband,” she said with a seductive face.
Pranaja's hand moved quickly, pinching the jutek girl's head.
‘Letc!’
“Adduh!” Ana grimaced in pain. “Why did you snap my head?”
“Gantian,” answered Pranaja casually.
“You got revenge?”
“Ngak. You're a kid already thinking husband.”
“You are too.”
Pranaja scrunched his forehead.
“Still in college already thinking about work,” connect Ana.
Pranaja smiled, a little embarrassed. He looked at that cute and cute face. His hair was braided in two, wearing a pony and his strange great clothes, unlike the girls in general.
“Why are you looking at me with that smile. Don't think slob yeah, watch out for you!”
Pranaja's smile grew even wider.
“I'm thinking, why do you like to dress like that. Shorts, tee shirts, covered vest from tiger skin and shoes from crocodile leather, ckckck,” he said. “Ana, where did you end up?”
Ana smiled without feeling uncomfortable with Pranaja's judgment.
“I just picked up my order.”
“Our reservation? Hm, let me guess. Your order if not a wild beast must be a wild beast. Yes right?”
“Your guess is right, but not entirely right.”
“You mean?”
“I just picked up a baby hybrid Elephant Mammooth from the Cloning Laboratory on the island of Arkik, Russia.”
Ana nodded her head.
“Mammoth is an ancient elephant that went extinct in the last ice age thousands of years ago. It was originally thought to be extinct by hunting, but it is more accurately thought that this animal went extinct due to global warming that led to the extinction of the quarter period.”
“Terus of this ancient elephant revived by cloning method so?”
Cloning is a step of duplication (exact artificial creation) of a living thing using the DNA code of the creature. Animal cloning can be done by embryo splitting, blastomere dispersal, and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) techniques.
“Russian archaeologists have found many mammoth fossils in the Arctic, and this discovery has led scientists to be particularly interested in creating mammoth elephant hybrids.”
“Hybrid Elephant Mammooth? How to?”
“Russian scientists are keen to restructure the genome by combining the DNA of Asian elephants with mammoth DNA. And this crazy experiment managed to create a new creature, a hybrid baby Sumatran elephant with Mammooth elephant in the womb of an artificial elephant.”
“And called Elephant Mammooth Hybrid?”
“Tap.”
Pranaja's mouth just opened wide without saying a word.
“You definitely don't believe it yet, do you? Look at this,” Ana said as she showed her phone screen.
Pranaja immediately focused on staring at Ana's phone. There was a strange animal that was eating young coconut leaves. It looks like an elephant, but its body is full of fur that grows thickly. And the beast is really alive. Pranaja looked so amazed. Is this what you call the Mammooth Hybrid Elephant?
“Wow! It’s absolutely incredible!” it was unconsciously.
“You are now sure right?”
Pranaja shook his head.
“Not fully either.”
“Why?”
“I haven't seen it directly.”
Anastassya shifted her seat. His face was facing Pranaja.
“Then look me in the eyes of Pranaja. Let faith grow in your heart. Because I've seen it. I mean I've seen the new creature directly with my own eyes.”
Pranaja stared straight into those clear eyes. Feeling the coolness that was in the recesses of his heart. Despite her ugly and fierce eyes, Ana is an innocent and sincere girl. A few moments their eyes looked. Unknowingly something was shaking gently. There is a signal connected between the two. And their faces turned pink.
“Eh, oh, anu..emmh.now you're sure right?” asked Ana who regained consciousness first with a stuttering voice.
“Ups! Yes Ana, of course I am sure of you, eh wrong.I mean I am sure that the Mammooth Elephant really exists,” he said stammering.
They then fell silent, the atmosphere became stiff. For a moment Pranaja threw his gaze up, looking at the plane that had just taken off. While Ana threw a look down, looking at the plane that had just landed. They were trying to control his heart beating uncontrollably. Then their lips smiled to themselves.
“Hem!” Pranaja pretended to cough, to dilute the atmosphere. “Eh, Ana really I can't see it directly?”
Ana shook her head quickly.
“My father strictly forbid I tell this to anyone, let alone see it. Mammooth elephants have not received certification from world authorities. That is to say this is an illegal animal, which has legal consequences when leaked to the public.”
Pranaja shook his head in admiration.
“Your father was great Ana. Surely he has connections everywhere, so a package like this can get away with the immigration and customs of Soetta.” airport
“You are right Pranaja. My dad was great, even though I was worried about him a lot.”
“Why?”
“Because I know, his actions often violate existing laws and regulations. He dared to act so because all this time sheltered behind the influence of his big boss Subrata.”
Pranaja. People like Subrata certainly have an arm's length in all the important institutions in the country. From executive, legislative and judicial.
“Then why did you tell me all this Ana?”
Ana looked back at Pranaja's face deeply.
“Because I want to share my story with someone I trust.”
Ana's words are like beating Pranaja's heart. He suddenly felt guilty with this innocent girl in front of him.
‘You can't trust me Ana,’ her inner self. ‘I am a secret agent, my life is filled with engineering, hoaxes, falsehoods, lies, cunning that has been neatly arranged and schematically by the best Intlijen Service in the world.’
“I'm sorry,” he said suddenly.
And Anastassya Pramono looked at him with question marks.
