If Love Could Choose
Prospective Restaurant Manager

At that time the restaurant was not so crowded, Yunia was sitting at the cashier table while making some notes on how to receive payments using credit cards, and Esther the cashier this morning, he said, was going to the restroom, when the intercom at the cashier's desk rang.

"Cashier, good day..." Sapa Yunia, immediately said the obligatory greeting that he had to say if he picked up the local phone.

"Who's this...?" Ask a woman's voice from nowhere.

"God, Mom..." Reply Yunia.

"Yunia...? Ah, yes... Yunia, come see me now, yeah..." The woman's orders.

"Well who? Where's?" Ask Yunia. He doesn't know who's calling yet and where to see him?

"Ah, yes I forgot... I'm Ratna, you meet me at Gasebo four, yeah..." Said the woman who claimed to be named Ratna.

"Good Mom ..." Yunia Sahut. After that Ratna disconnected the intercom. Only Yunia was confused, where was the four Gasebo?' It was fortunate that Esther had come, so she could ask...

"Sister Esther, which four Gasebo are you?" Yunia asked as Esther got closer to her.

"Gasebo four? what's up?" Esther asked back.

"I was told to meet Ms. Ratna there..." Yunia Sahut.

"Oh .. That, you notice. The order of the Gasebo numbers starts from the right of that door suit..." Ester said while pointing towards the door to the entrance to another restaurant room which is actually more often used for gathering events, therefore, even though both places to eat, even though both places to eat, children of restaurant crews more often call it a gathering room.

"Oh. thanks Esther. Then Yunia went there first..." Yunia said after being able to guess where the four Gasebo was.

"He. e..." Mumbled Ester asserted.

Yunia immediately took out a small notebook along with her ballpoint pen and she put it in the pocket of her uniform skirt, just in case, who knows if there will be anything she needs to record.

Arriving at the Gasebo in question, Yunia dyed. There's no one there.

"Where's Miss Ratna?" Ask Yunia in the heart. His head was in a daze looking for a figure that might be waiting, until his gaze stopped on a woman who was walking towards him while holding the phone in her right hand, and a tote bag in her left hand. It seems that the woman was chatting coolly with the person across the phone, until she spoke while occasionally interspersed with laughter.

"Yuna?" Asked the woman without a sound, as she was already standing close to Yunia. Yunia nodded, realizing that the woman was still listening to the voice of the person across the phone.

"...Oh.. yeah.. okay, okay.. see you... waalaikum greetings." Ratna finally ended her phone conversation.

"Hey, Yunia... Nice to meet you, finally...." Said Ratna while tucking her phone in her trouser pocket. After which, he extended his hand to greet Yunia. Yunia returned the helping hand rather awkwardly. "Well to see me? Who is this guy? Why did I come as he had been waiting for?" Thought Yunia.

"Let's sit..." Bring Ratna. Yunia nodded, then followed Ratna into the Gasebo and sat down opposite the seat that Ratna had occupied.

"How was your first impression of being here?" Ratna asked started the conversation, while putting down the tote bag she was carrying. Judging from the shape, it seemed like the bag contained a laptop, But Ratna did not take out the contents, so Yunia did not know for sure, whether her guess was correct or not.

"Happy, Mom. The atmosphere here is so comfortable. Many shady trees make the air so cold..."

"What about your new friends?" Ratna's question followed, as Yunia somewhat confusedly elaborated her opinion.

"So far the friends that Yunia has met well, Mom. They helped Yunia a lot..." Yunia answered honestly.

"Good indeed... Like Yunia. Before that, I should introduce myself first... Maybe Yunia forgot.we talked to each other before...." Ratna said, making Yunia frown... "Talk? by when? Where's?" yunia.

"... by phone..." Ratna said again giving a hint. It was as if there was a light on Yunia's head.

"Mbak Ratna...?" Guess Yunia is doubtful. But Ratna nodded in agreement.

"Oh, this is Ms Ratna mas Bayu...?" Yunia asked making sure in a tone full of enthusiasm. Ratna laughed while nodding back.

"Ih, Alhamdulillah.Yunia was a bit afraid of being here by herself, no one knew her at all... Fortunately, there is now Ratna... Uh... briefly, what GM meant was Bu Ratna... Sister Ratna, isn't she?" Cerocos Yunia was unconscious. Ratna nodded back and laughed.

"Ralat..not one, but seven restaurants..." Ratna said fixing Yunia's comment. Hearing the word seven, Yunia's eyes instantly rounded wide.

"Yes...! Really cool...!" Yunia was amazed.

"You want to be a GM like me?" Ask Ratna.

"Now... But can Yunia, huh?" Sahut Yunia was doubtful.

"Learn well. One day you will lead this restaurant..." Ratna's words convinced Yunia.

"Yes.hopefully Yunia will be able to have a restaurant as good as this..." Yunia said expectantly.

"If you only have the easy thing, Yun. which is important you must be able to lead, so that the restaurant you founded can last a long time, amid the increasingly intense business competition..." Advice Ratna. Yunia nodded in understanding.

"Well, so far.. do you mind if I put you as the cashier?" Ask Ratna.

"No, no problem..." Reply Yunia.

"Thank God I was worried, afraid of being scolded by Vishnu, for putting you in the cashier..." Ratna began to explain her point.

"... I put you there, that you may learn, according to the education you now receive. The plan, if you can and understand, you will gradually move to other accounting departments. Hopefully, along the way, along with your education level ... uh, you want to go to college right?" Ratna asked.

"God willing, if Vishnu allows, Yunia wants to go to college..." Reply Yunia.

"Good... Later while studying accounting at the university, you can also practice at this restaurant..." Ratna.

"Well, so... I'll be a long time PKL here, can you?" Chirpe Yunia. Ratna laughed again.

"of course... I can't handle all the restaurants myself forever, I need you to help..." His word.

"Why me...?" Ask Yunia.

"Yes, who else are you? Mas Vishnu and mas Bayu already have a lot of work that they have to take care of..."

"Well?! What does Vishnu and Bayu have to do with this restaurant...?" Chirps Yunia does not understand.

"Yes, there's a lot to do... They own this restaurant..." Sahut Ratna who instantly made Yunia gawk.

THE OWNER?

Geez! Wishnu should know the employees here.the person he owns...!

"Therefore, I will not open your relationship with Vishnu for a while. So that people do not become awkward with you and Yunia can also interact with them, without any frills of the owner's wife on your forehead. How, Yunia objected to this?" Ask Ratna. Yunia immediately shook her head.

"No, mbak... Yunia is no problem..." Said affirm.

"All right, then. Now, Yunia can go back to Yunia's place. Remember, if there's anything, don't hesitate to call me..." Ratna closed their conversation.

"Ready, mbak.. if so, Yunia said yes, mbak..." Yunia. Ratna nodded.

Yunia got up from her seat and left the Gasebo.

Wih...! It turned out that a restaurant this big had her husband, there were seven more, Ratna said... Wow, that's really cool...? But now he had to go back to the cashier table, and learn from below... Ah, it's nothing... What matters is that one day, he could be a great restaurant manager... 😂😂😂
