The Midnight Radio
Episode 30's

I sat on the couch before lunch with a plate of siomay in hand. It was the message in the whatsapp group that made me come here even though it was just early this morning that Bang Win drove me home.

"Xu's? Very busy lunch at this hour," said Teh Hani when he saw me. He approached and sat on the sofa after previously going to the pantry to get a drink.

"This is mah" I replied. "Would you like to have a meeting on what the hell is tea?" That's a great rame in the group."

"There is! Ntar also knew," he chuckled.

"Owner's in a meeting?" ask again.

"Ngga, we-we are. Owner doesn't want to know menau, besides he has his own agenda."

Bang Win who just came out of the studio caught a glimpse of me and walked towards the pantry.

'No, it's true! If noon is very good. Sadistic!' my inner.

Before long, the man returned with a bottle of mineral water in hand, after opening the lid, he thrust the bottle at me.

"Bang Win, would you like a snack and not make a meeting later?" ask Teh Hani.

"Pesen. Ask Oxu what he wants," he replied flatly.

With a dikulum smile, Teh Hani winks at me who is still bribing the rest of the siomay on the plate.

"I finish the broadcast first, abis it if all has been on the dateng, just go to the meeting room," he said to whom so me and Teh Hani both nodded.

"Xu, Teteh listen to Semalem Adul in the trance you keep fainting."

"Dad. Ordinary Tea. It's here, ma'am" I replied. "Eh Tea, is this meeting going to discuss people who want to buy this radio station this time?"

"No, Xu. Relax, this radio station won't change hands. Although the owner made this radio because of a prank, but this radio has historical value."

"I still don't understand how rich the structure here is. You see, it's just the same broadcasters continue," I said.

Technically, the structure of the radio organization consists of several parts such as director, general manager, marcom manager, general affair manager, music director, public relations, producer, traffic, script writer, broadcaster and operator. However, while working here, I only know that the employees here are not too many.

"This radio is actually a prank project, so it's not like the radio stations out there that stand for professional reasons. Here there is only a direct owner under him there is Bang Win, Teh Opi and Kang Utep who are responsible for all activities on this radio. For example, rich Teh Opi, he is a news announcer as well as a script writer and also a marcom manager whose job is to create long-term and short-term programs in terms of marketing radio products," explained Teh Hani.

"Oh, so how many tasks?" my many.

"Yo 'i. You doang relaxed, so doang broadcaster. Remi only double duty, so the music director is the same operator. Gia is the same traffic producer who is responsible for the schedule of advertisements on the program."

"Yes yeah? I'm a pure broadcaster," I continued chuckling.

"Later to tackle a new task, let's get busy with other rich and come to the studio not just for a broadcast."

"No need," cut down Bang Win who somehow stood near us. "Oxu wants a new job."

"Well yeah! It just so happens that the new program has no producer, Bang Win," added Teh Hani.

Bang Win just shook his head.

"Keep Inoxu so what?" ask Teh Hani again.

"So my wife" he answered short and went straight back into the studio.

Hani tea is seen gawking for a few seconds. As soon as the sound of the studio door closing, he chuckled until he had to cover his mouth with a palm.

The meeting started after all the broadcasters were present. Apparently this meeting discussed about the hours of the broadcast of the Story of Midnight which received a high rating so as to make many advertisements arrive.

"Gia, later divided his duties Adul with Oxu. Want them to take turns broadcasting alone or together," said Bang Win.

"There's me" said Bang Win.

"Ohuk!" Hani tea coughed

"Aah!" kang Utep Murmured.

Opi tea and the other broadcasters just grinned at the words of Bang Win just now.

"Gimana Gia. Gia would know, a good rating that when you broadcast together or alone," continued Bang Win.

Gia seemed to nod and we continued with the other discussion. Half an hour later the meeting was dissolved.

"My friends broadcast? Abis was a walk," said Bang Win pulling my hand slowly as he exited the meeting room.

"Yes, but go to the pantry first. Thirsty," I replied in a nod response.

"Will go straight in?" bang Win said again.

"Yes." Yeah."

I saw that things were quiet, either went to where the announcers had just come out of the meeting room. Gia and Remi had returned home after saying goodbye to me while Adul was cleaning up the studio upstairs.

The figure sitting on the pantry dining chair made me stop my steps. The figure of a young European-faced girl in a dangling dress looked at me and smiled before she stood up and floated through the wall. It made me wonderfully shocked, yet strangely there was no fear at all. I remember the girl, the girl who was reading a book and enjoying her last tea before it took her life at the hands of the little-eyed soldier.

I quietly picked up a bottle of mineral water from the showcase while looking at a can of coffee. My memory goes back to last night when Adul was possessed and suddenly a tingling sensation made me laugh.

"Hampura nini's. Neng poho mun nini teu apal canned coffee. Though mah nyak, keberunah coffee na (sorry grandma, neng forgot that grandma does not know canned coffee. Though good coffee)," I said slowly.

Kik kik kik!

"Haha. Heureuy, Ni (joking, Nek)," I added before walking outside the pantry.

"Well, perfect openness" said Kang Utep, who was sitting on the sofa as I passed by.

"What, Kang?" manya curious.

"Third eye you, Xu. It's perfect open."

"Can we see that?" askaku.

"Yes." Yeah."

"Pantesan, it was in the kitchen to see the beautiful lady," I added.

"Yes nothing. The power of the incident was malem which made you rich. But they don't bother you, do they?"

"Ngga," I shook my head.

"So, it's relaxing."

I nodded and walked into the studio where Bang Win was broadcasting. Right after closing the door, I saw a female figure standing behind Bang Win and wrapping her hands around the man's neck.

" ...I Win Patriadi resigned, see you later. Wassalamualaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh."

Right after Bang Win closed the broadcast and turned off the mic, the figure behind him advanced his head as if it was going to kiss Bang Win's cheek.

Seeing that, my emotions rose to the highest level. Quickly, I walked towards Bang Win who was still sitting, lowered my head and pulled hard the hair of the figure so that it sounded a faint shrill. "However*jing! Ieu nu aing! (remove an*jing. It's mine!)," I jolted.

Suddenly the figure disappeared after looking at me for a few seconds. Bang Win who looked shocked, looked right into my eyes with an expression that was hard to explain.
