On Monday, Boss Robert did not enter the office. He had a sudden need, because his brother was in the hospital. If the boss is no longer in the office, some of the staff, look happy, cheerful. Including me, I'm also happy not to play. Moreover, i. It was like being free from the shackles of a heavy burden. Huhahahahah!
If there was him, there must have been some work thrown at me. But, it's not about. For me, it was my job, as a staff. Must complete the work charged by the leader.
''Cit, lunch yuk, '' take me to my same field friend.
''Yuk Kak, I most want to be invited to eat, '' replied Citra.
At that moment, he cleared his desk. Intend to come to lunch with me.
Hmmmm....Today I actually waltzed quietly, without the shadow of Boss Robert.
***
''We use a car, yes, '' I said to Citra.
''Okay, ''' The image followed in my footsteps from behind. As for me, hurry to the car park.
''You just wait here, '' I said.
But Citra refused. He said he chose to go straight to the parking lot.
''No matter what, brother, I'm going to the parking lot. If you wait here, it's like a boss, me! Oops!'' chirps Citra.
''Ahahahahahah. You can do it,''
Not for a minute, Citra and I got in the car, and slid into the Soto Bude Dharmi stall.
''Kit, I didn't come in yesterday, how's the office?'' ask, while continuing to drive.
''I mean Brother?'' ask the image back, a little confused.
''But, the most noisily, our boss.'' Citra story.
''It means storm, how about?'' I was curious, and I suddenly caught my eye because there was a cat suddenly crossing the street.
The image was shocked, and he did not have time to continue the story.
But, thank God, the streets are deserted. Behind my car, there was no other driver.
''Allah, thank God, do not mind, the cat was, and fortunately there was no other vehicle. If there is, do not know anymore, I am Cit, I said with a heart that is still pounding in shock.
Arriving at the Soto Bude Dharmi stall, I immediately pesen warm water, to relieve my shock earlier.
''Bude, you want warm water. I was so shocked. You see, I almost hit a cat to cross the street.'' My story is the same Bude Dharmi.
''Oalah Neng..kok iso, be careful anyway, if bring a vehicle.'' he said advising and reminding me.
''Yes Bude. Fortunately, I was not speeding. Just speeding, don't know me, Bude!'' I said.
''Yo wis, drink this water first, let him be surprised, '' said Bude who was thick with his jaw dialect.
''What is it, Neng?'' bude Dharmi asked, calling me Neng.
''Soto, Bude yes, '' I replied. Along with that, Citra is also a soto order.
''Drink ''ice tea yes, '' I said.
''You, Cit?'' my many.
''Same with Kak. Uh iced tea!'' call Citra, who looks busy brain-washing his phone.
''Bude, if you make an event, you can not yes, help cook the soto, '' I said to a middle-aged woman who is the same age as my mother.
''Yes you can, Neng. Bude even happy if asked to help.'' he said with a face sumringah.
''When, keep on what show?'' ask Bude again.
''Ask first, Bude. Anytime if there is an event, the menu wants to make soto, I call Bude, yes to my house, ''' I said.
''Yes, Neng. Arrange wae. Bude is ready when to be called to help, Bude would want to.'' he replied convincingly.
Out of curiosity about the boss story, I tried asking it again to Citra.
''Cit, did you just say, Boss Robert is making a fuss if I don't come in? How mean?'' I said put on a curious face.
''Ohh...apparently brother curious? Sometimes I'm told to call my sister, ask her why not come in. In fact, my brother has permission to the Head of TU. In fact, there's another letter. Brother permission, because it hurts. We're still being told to call. I said, call brother is not active. I had to lie!'' story Image, at length.
I was just shaking when I heard Citra's story. ''Why is it that bad, my boss huh?'' I murmured in my heart.
''Anyway, just from brother did not enter, he told Citra to phone brother. But I often lie to the boss. I said that the number is not active.'' Citra added again.

After we finished eating, we went back to the office. I didn't think boss Robert was in the office. Though, I heard, he said today did not enter the office.
Citra and I immediately rushed to the work room, pretending to be busy with their respective jobs.
Boss Robert is closing in on us. He protested, saying the lunch hour was over half an hour.
''This, what time is it? Why did you just enter the office?''
Me and Citra just shut up.
''I'm sorry, sir, I said.
''So, we were late, because the petrol content queue at SPBU, ''' I explained to him, forced to lie. I see, Citra also spontaneously apologized to the boss.
''Sorry Sir.'' said Citra with her face bowed in fear.
''Other times do not repeat. So the staff, must be disciplined, if they want to develop, he said and he passed away leaving us both.
***
I rushed to the parking lot, after the office hours were over. Boss Robert was following me from behind. Suddenly grabbed my hand, and I tried to brush it off, wailing. Because, I'm afraid someone knows.
''Can go viral later I.'' I grumbled.
The more I tepis, the stronger he clasps my hand.
''No!'' my snapping.
''Wait for me to talk!'' he said and I didn't get in my car.
''What do you say, about the office? Tomorrow it can be!'' obviously I was again trying to get my hand off her hand.
''Ih. Don't be like kids. Shame on us to see people!'' call me still upset.
''Why the hell are you, don't you care a little bit like me?!'' said me.
I immediately let go of laughter. I said to him, I have no obligation, to care about him.
''What is our relationship? I should care about you!'' I said cynically.
''Ask your heart? Do you feel like you have a relationship with me?'' ask him back and hold my hand even tighter.
''Allah, thankfully it will be 18:00 wib. A number of office staff have all gone home. In the office, it's just me and him, in this parking lot.
''Please let me go. My son is waiting at home. I promised to take him for a walk, I said trying to end the conversation that afternoon. Where to maghrib.
''OK..ajak him, we walk three!'' his orders.
''No.'' elakku.
''Come on, give me a chance to love you as well as your child!'' he said to me.
''Ahahahahahah. Are you drunk or what? Giving chance? Our relationship is not clear. Never mind. Take care of your family, and I will also take care of my family.
''Please. Give me a chance, '' he said again, in a soft voice.(***)
