"Good morning, Sir. My name is Sahal. " Khalid said as he lowered his body to greet and respect the head of cleanliness and personnel. Muri, the head of personnel who brought Khalid to Sutriman, the head of the cleaning and security division, immediately handed over Khalid.
"He's your new man. Additional personnel as you requested in last month's proposal, Mr. Triman. Guide him to work well. "
"Good, Sir. I received it well. Hopefully, with the increase in personnel, the work of the Office Boy will be lighter and the office will be cleaner and more well-maintained. "
"I go first."
"Please, sir."
Sutriman saluted Muri who was about to leave the room. After Muri left, Sutriman called Khalid.
"Sit here young man."
"Thank you, sir."
"What is your name?"
"Sahal, sir."
"You don't seem like any guy. Your body is straight, your hands are also very smooth. I doubt you will be able to carry out your duties as a cleaning service here. "
Khalid looked down. He tries to find the right answer so that the man in front of him can accept his reason. Confident of his decision, Khalid lifted his head and looked at Sutriman's face, and nodded
"I have never worked hard at home, sir. But believe that I will show my abilities as an office boy. I will learn from friends. "
"Good. Do a good job and don't make your boss angry. "
"Yes sir. Insha Allah."
"Are you a graduate who wants to work as a cleaning service?"
"I graduated from high school, sir."
"High school huh? Why not apply in the industry? "
"I feel like I was accepted at the cleaning service, I'm already happy, sir. Whenever I feel I deserve it, I will fight to be able to move divisions. "
"Good. Now come with me! I will try to teach you how to use the tools in this room. You must know and must be able to use them because at any time you will use them. "
"Good, Sir. Thank you for the guidance. "
Sutriman took Khalid to a room where there were many tools from vacuum cleaners to glass cleaners, all explained one by one and trained on Khalid to use them.
"Are there any questions?"
"God willing, no, sir. I already know. From now on I will work on cleaning the room which is my responsibility. "
"Very well, I will show you which room is your responsibility. Come on. "
Khalid followed Sutriman's steps. He circulated his gaze to several employees who were working actively. Looking at some of the others who were cool chatting and playing with their cell phones. He was furious, but he didn't show any annoyance at all.
"Drinking from all the employees here is your part and responsibility, Sahal. Every day you have to come early in the morning. Clean up all the rooms in this division then make their drinks. This is the room of the Marketing Manager and all the staff. You have to be careful because whatever happens here is your responsibility now. "
"God willing, sir. I will pay attention to everything "
"There is something you need to ask"
Khalid shook his head. He wanted to hit the table in front of him when he saw several employees watching him with condescending eyes.
"Just watch out if you get up here acting up." He muttered.
"There is a problem?"
Khalid shook his head. He had no idea that Sutriman had been observing him earlier.
"Then start working. You can join your other friends who are now cleaning the bathrooms in the prayer room. "
"Where is the prayer room, sir?"
"It's at the end of this room."
Khalid walked away from Sutriman and several employees who were staring at him cynically.
"Assalamualaikum' said Khalid to the two people who were busy cleaning the toilet and painting the bathroom walls.
"Don't greet here. This is the restroom. Should not."
"Why?'
"Ah, I told you that this is a toilet. All residents are genies. You can only greet when in prayer rooms and other places besides toilets. "
"Ok, alright. I'm sorry. Oh yes, I am Sahal. New hires here.
"I am Gani"
"I'm Soni"
"Can I help you?"
"You just sweep the mosque, OK? Let us finish this job. After that, we will move on to cleaning the outer glass. "
"Clean the outer glass?" Khalid asked incredulously. He had no idea that on his first day of work he would have gotten such a tough job.
"If you can't let us do it, you can just fetch the things we need."
"Fine, thank you."
"Don't be happy just yet because sometimes you will feel it too."
"Y. . . Yes, Sir."
"Haha ha are you afraid?"
"Y. yes. of course I'm afraid. This building is up to hundreds of meters high. What if . . . "
"God willing, everything is safe. We are all protected using international standards. "
"Fine, Sir. I will learn a lot so that I can do the job well. "
"Of course. We will support you. Yes, right, Gani? "
"Yes. We are like fingers, one pain feels another too, one happy, God willing, the others will also feel it. You can't teach us if you can and we don't know, you're in charge of teaching us. "
"Fine, Sir. Thank you for accepting me here as friends "
"You're welcome. Oh yes, are you married? "
Khalid shook his head.
"Not yet"
"Wow, why are there still bachelors who want to be OB like us, huh?"
"Of course, because it is trapped, Soni. Right, Sahal? '
"Yes, Sir. I wanted to work in administration or marketing or something, but fate said otherwise. "
"Yes, we are just grateful, Sahal. Hopefully, with gratitude, Allah will add His blessings to us. "
"Are you both married?"
"Alhamdulillah already. I am blessed with a two-year-old daughter, Soni, a newlywed. Two months ago he married a girl from Sumatra. Hopefully, it has been given the mandate. "
Soni nods.
"Alhamdulillah, this morning my wife checked, she said it was positive. Wish us all the best. "
"Alhamdulillah. Glad to hear that. "
"Even though he is not married yet, Sahal must have had a candidate, right?"
Khalid smiles.
"Of course. There must be a lot of girls who have a crush on a handsome guy like you. "
"Not really, Sir. Not much. There is only one who sincerely loves me. "
"Wow, which one?"
"Village girl near the house."
"Hopefully it will soon be half done."
"What do you mean?"
"Getting married completes half of the religion. Hopefully, Sahal will soon go to the aisle with the girl you want. "
"Amen, thank you for praying, Mr. Rahmat. I love working here. Just one day it was like meeting a brother who had not seen it for a long time. This is amazing. Very accepting of me. "
"Here we are migrating. Away from relatives. What we can make as relatives are our co-workers and close neighbors. If we don't want to make friends and befriend colleagues and neighbors, how will we get brothers? '
"Thank you, Sir. I am very grateful to have new siblings like Mr. Soni and Mr. Rahmat. This friendship will reach the hereafter, okay?. "
"Insha Allah'
