Romance at Dusk
First Meeting
The beginning of the month, a crowded day, especially today is Monday, makes the mood of a twilight suddenly bad, when he saw the wall clock has shown at 07:30. Because from yesterday his monthly guests came, then Dusk decided to marathon his favorite dorama, so it does not feel already past midnight.
Dusk rushes to take a shower and prepares to leave for the office immediately. He also skipped the oatmeal breakfast as usual, because it looks like it will add afternoon, so Senjapun decided to buy a sandwich in the minimarket to his office.
Arriving at the intended minimarket, Dusk immediately looked for his favorite sandwich and black coffee bottle, then rushed in line at the cashier. It was just two queues, a man with brown glasses and a black hat, and Dusk was standing behind him.
"Hmm seger the smell," Inner Dusk accidentally smelled the perfume of the man in front of him.
"Sorry before, his EDC machine is being damaged is it possible to cash only?" ask the cashier to the man in front of Dusk.
"Sorry, I'm not cash, is there an ATM nearby?" ask the man to the cashier.
"It seems a bit far away, it's only 20k does it really not exist?" ask the cashier back.
Dusk saw the watch in his hand, and already showed at 08:20, Dusk must arrive at the office at exactly 08:30 in order to be ready to welcome the President Director. Seeing the small debate ahead, Dusk finally spoke.
"Sir, join my own, because I'm in a hurry. And for this mas my business card, if you want to change," said Dusk handed the business card to the man in front of him.
"The total is 50 thousand yes mbak, have 30 thousand mbak, and this mas 20 thousand," info the cashier.
"This is yes mbak, thanks," said Dusk then walked out minimarket.
"Excuse me, ma'am," the man shouted.
"Yes," Dusk turned around for a moment and began to open the door.
"Thank you yes, I will definitely change it later" said the man, and only replied with a smile and hand gestures marked ok from Dusk.
The man then read the business card belonging to Dusk, and smiled faintly.

"Huaaa sorry I'm late" said Dusk when he arrived at his desk.
"Kalem mbak, Mr. Radit also just came, his car tires leaked earlier he said," said Dila broke the panic of Dusk.
"Well, let's go to the hall" take Dila and Adam to Dusk.
"Sir Radit, I'm sorry I'm late," said Dusk to Mr. Radit who had already arrived in the hall.
"Father of Dusk, this new sachou has not arrived, there are obstacles in the way like, we just wait," replied Mr. Radit.
"Well this perfume," Inner Dusk, then looked at the back of the new sachou. His stature was very similar to the man in the minimarket earlier, Senjapun's eyes could not escape observing him.
"Ohayou gozaimasu (good morning), introduce me Akira Ryota, the new sachou here, hopefully we can cooperate well," Sapa Ryota then bent his body.
"And this is Raka, my secretary and personal assistant, who will help me here" Ryota continued. Then Raka also bent her body.
"Kok can speak Indonesian," lirih Dusk but can still be heard by Dila next to him.
"Because her mother is Indonesian, so she is fluent in Indonesian" whispered Dila at Dusk. Dusk just nodded his head.
After the introduction, all employees began to return to their respective workspaces to continue their duties.

On the way to Sachou's room on the 20th floor. Ryota and Raka go hand in hand.
"Where's the boss, the mood here?" ask Ryota. Raka has been Ryota's personal assistant since working in Japan.

In addition to learning Indonesian from his mother, Ryota also learned a lot from Raka.
"More rames than the last time I was here" Ryota replied.
"Where have you met the girl who paid for your drink?" ask Raka back.
"I've seen him in the hall, '" Ryota answered briefly and then began to walk into his study to work on his laptop and company documents. Similarly, Raka began to study company documents.
