The Three Chosen
98. Storytelling
Bobi who knows the root of the problem that caused the tension was trying to be mature. He reminded his three friends to talk about this before they went home later.
“ Ga need to Bang, a small problem really..,” said Vienna.
“ Precisely a small problem if diibiarin can be big Win. The proof was, Lo same Hanako arguing in front of the warehouse right..,” said Bobi.
“ I just don't want Hanako to be afraid to keep quitting other rich jobs Bang..,” said Vienna put forth the reason.
“ But Hanako also has the right to know Win. He is also an employee here. It's been almost a month he's been working with us and the proof is that he still survives. That means he's not that other rich coward.
Vienna fell silent then nodded. Vienna felt it had no reason to refuse.
“ Ok, I agree...” says Vienna.
“ Good. I also told Hanako and Madani. They also want to chat this problem ntar...,” said Bobi as it passed.
\=====
Hanako called her father and said she would be home a little late tonight. Heru who was on his way decided to pick up his eldest daughter because of worry.
“ That Dad picked you up, I happen to be on the road..,” said Heru.
“ Ga need Yah...,” reject Hanako.
“ Hanako..,” call Heru.
Hanako's body stiffened knowing that such a call was only used by her father if he was angry or when he made a mistake.
“ Ok Well. I'm still in the store yes..” Hanako said at the end of her sentence.
“ Hmmm...,” says Heru while closing the phone.
Hanako stared at her phone for a moment then turned her head as Bobi called her name.
“ Here Han, chat here only yes..,” call Bobi.
“ Yes Bang..,” Hanako said as she stepped closer to Bobi, Madani and Vienna.
Hanako sat next to Vienna ungainly, while Vienna just lowered her face as if to hide her regret for breaking her ban earlier.
“ Um, who wants to talk first...?” tanya Madani opened the conversation.
“ Lo aja Dan...,” says Bobi.
“ So I'm the story, why not Vienna anyway Bob.?” madani Protest.
“ Uda Dan, just the same...,” sahut Bobi hailed Hanako.
“ Ok. Gini yes Hanako Darling...,” says Madani.
“ Stop, don't use say Honey also dong Bang. I don't agree Lo deketin Hanako. Play boy cap cardboard rich Lo tuh ga pants for Hanako..!” the word Vienna is fierce.
which does not itch.
“ Ck, that's the expression of my love for Hanako as Win's Sister. Only Sister...,” said Madani in self-defense.
“ Ga can...!” sahut Vienna while staring intently at Madani.
“ Hey dong. It's even a storm itself. Buruan said Dan...,” said Bobi broke up the Madani debate and
Viennese.
“ Ok. Gini is Han. Once upon a time in an empty kiosk next to this store there was a mini market. There is also an automatic cashier. Name's Tania. Well because both the cashier, Tania and Vienna so close and have a friendly relationship that is. One day Tania was sick until she entered for days. Vienna couldn't believe it, kept coming to Tania's house. Not a house, that's it. Kan Tania so stay ngekost with her friends. When Vienna came there, Tania was dying.”, Madani said, then stopped her story when she saw Vienna wiping her tears.
Then Bobi continued the story of Madani who stopped.
“ Vienna invite Tania's roommates to take Tania to the Hospital but they refuse. The reason they are too
busy. Vienna sent Tania to the hospital on her own without anyone's help. Fortunately, the taxi driver who nganterin they want to help carry Tania from inside the boarding house. But unfortunately the Hospital said that Tania was late to the Hospital. And Tania died just ten minutes into the ER.”, Bobi said.
The silent atmosphere also rang out for a moment. Madani again opened her mouth to continue her story but was cut off by Vienna's remarks.
“ Yang I inget, the day before Tania was sick she said if she abis scolded by her boss for miscalculating. Tania had to overtime to recalculate all of the shop's revenue that day. Tomorrow Tania won't come in, I guess it's only a day. I didn't know until four days Tania didn't go to work. So I took the initiative to look at him.”, said Vienna while wiping his tears that came back.
Hanako rubbed Vienna's back to calm him down. Vienna looked at Hanako with a smile.
“ After Tania's death I often hear the sound of the key board counting machine around Iue. Even I once saw Tania in the counting machine of this bookstore as if again counting the shoppers' groceries in his store.” said Vienna sadly.
“ Turns out Tania died carrying sadness yes..,” Hanako murmured.
“ Right Han. All the employees of the mini market next door were terrified because they often squirm the ghost sighting of Tania again at the cashier table. Don't ask how the cashier's reaction is to see Tania's ghost there. They are directly ngibrit. Continue they also resign or ask to be moved to another branch because of fear.” said Madani.
“ Who writhed the sighting of Tania is also not only Han's employees. Some store consumers claim to have been served by the ghost of Tania while paying for their groceries at the cashier table. And that was a mini market. Because of that incident, the mini market lost customers and went bankrupt. The mini market is finally closed. I heard they moved somewhere else. They moved without bringing with them the calculating machine in the mini market because they were afraid that Tania's ghost would follow too.
“ Can be guessed how Han ended up. Because no one can be disturbed in the location of the former mini market, finally the ghost of Tania shows themselves the same people who still live here including Kami.” said Madani.
“ The voice of a self-operating calculating machine is the arrival of Tania Han. I know, but I did. But other women are afraid and choose to resign from this store. I'm a girl myself here now, even in the row of shops that are here only I'm a female employee who still survives. So it is not wrong if I forbid Lo to enter the warehouse because the warehouse is directly adjacent to the store next door where the calculating machine is located Han. I don't want you to be scared when the sound of the calculating machine continues to resign from here. I don't want you to resign to be rich too. Sorry if I'm wrong.” said Vienna while bowing his head.
Hanako smiled then gently patted Vienna on the hand.
“ Gapapa Win I'm aware. Lagian I also have seen the appearance of Tania's ghost really..,” Hanako said casually.
“ The real Han, when..?” ask Bobi, Madani and Vienna at the same time.
“ Last Sunday when we met security..,” Hanako said.
“ Pas Bobi ask the security guard sikring electric it...?” tanya Madani and Hanako.
Bobi, Madani and Vienna fell silent and stared at each other.
