Chapter #1

PART 1

Try is my partner in the radio. He is calm and a bit mysterious. But I can say he has quite gentle personality and charming looks. One sleepy night he had a mistake by falling asleep when the electricity burnt the cable in the studio and finally exploded. He was shocked and woke up from her sleep immediately. Then, he ran outside the studio and became confused what to do because no one there when the incident happenned. Actually, I heard that news from the other announcers. The next day, I had a schedule with Try and you know what it was the first time I finally had the same schedule again with him after quite a long time. I saw him sitting seriously by focusing his eyes to the screen in front of him until I entered the studio and greeted him cheerfully. I just tried to react normally as if I did not ever know about the incident he had last night in order just to avoid the akwardness after quite a long time no see him. He only gave his slight smile when he saw me. I found a tired face behind his smile. I started sitting beside him and put my hands on his thigh by saying some words of my longingness to him. He was a bit surprised and still gave me the same smile again. Then, I asked him about his life in advance. He started telling story about his study in the university lately and informed me that he had moved to the new campus because of some considerations. I was quite happy he could be more talkative to me. For your information, Try is such an introvert man that won’t talk much if he feels uncomfortable enough. That is why I feel quite specially lucky when he wants to share his story more to me than others. “Such a rare moment!” (haha). But, suddenly the owner of the radio came in and asked Try to follow her outside the studio. Actually, I had quite of bad feeling of her sudden coming. I thought something bad would happen with Try. It successfully made me uncomfortable about him until I unconsciously wrote some of my hope prayers for him on the paper I found on the table. Faintly, I overheard some of their conversation outside about last night explosion incident and unfortunately I had to hear that finally she asked him to resign and leave right away. See, my feeling was right. In a short time Try went back to the studio with his red dissapointed face. I could not hold my symphaty towards him then I half-holding his shoulder and said, “I know you are sad but you are going to have the better one soon,” by putting my right hand on his chest to console his sad heart. I almost cried when I said those words but he tried to comfort me back. Then, he packed his belongings quickly and got ready to leave the studio. I accompanied him outside to take his last salary and still be with him until he finally left the radio. Well,I actually regretted this ending because I thought he was worthwhile to have the next chance to work in the radio (after some mistakes he had before) and my boss should consider Try’s situation that really needs extra money for his needs and study in university. However, as I said before to Try that maybe God has another better plan for his life. “Keep on moving forward, Try!”. The best is yet to come. I will pray for your next brighter future.
