Today, at 10.00 Central Indonesian Time, a plane of The Indonesian airlines would take Professor Mirza from Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport in Makassar to Juanda International Airport in Surabaya. A knock was heard in front of the H5 room where Professor Mirza was inside.
"Morning, sir. Breakfast is ready in the 2nd floor's restaurant," said Rinto, one of the hotel staff.
"Okay. Thank you, sir," said Professor Mirza.
"Is there anything else that you need?" asked Rinto.
"Please help me later in booking a taxi from this hotel to the airport, sir. I have to go to the airport at half-past nine in the morning," said Professor Mirza.
"Alright, sir. We'll help you to book a taxi and transfer your luggage from your room to the first-floor lobby," said Rinto, responsively.
"Okay, sir. In 10 minutes, I will go down to the 2nd floor for breakfast," said Professor Mirza.
After that, Professor Mirza closed the door to his room. He took out
Professor Sari took a sip of the water in front of him again. This time, his heart was beating even faster.He felt that Professor Mirza's words just now were a subtle threat to him as a campus political rival, not just an order from superiors to subordinates."No, Sir. I don't even mind it. Instead, I am ready to support your ambition for the Department of Management and Business to get an A accreditation," Professor Sari said."Very well, Ma'am. I also want to tell you one thing, Professor," Professor Mirza said."What is it, Sir?" Professor Sari asked after feeling more relaxed.Professor Mirza was silent for a moment to light a clove cigarette that he had just gotten from the pack that on the table.He smoked looking deliciously; it seemed as if he had forgotten his first order to Dirman to stop smoking."Regarding the Accountability Report for our campus orientation last year, I don't think there is
For now, Professor Sari was just waiting for the moment where she can meet Professor Mirza, her supervisor at the campus who is also her political rival during the 2017-2021 Siupala University Rector Election. After a tense conversation with Professor Mirza, Professor Sari left for his office in the Faculty of Economics and Business, Siupala University. At 07.45 West Indonesian Time, Professor Sari arrived at work. She immediately entered her room and was warmly greeted by Aris Perdana, her personal assistant. Just 2 minutes after Professor Sari sat on the sofa, Aris approached her with today's copy of the Media Kampus newspaper, October 19th, 2016. Aris's face looked pressured in front of Professor Sari. "What's the matter with you, Aris?" asked Professor Sari. "Here, ma'am. Please read the headlines of this newspaper," said Aris, handing the newspaper to Professor Sari. Professor Sari accepts the newspaper given by Aris. She was so s
In the other place, it was still on today's date, October 19th, 2016. Frans' watch showed 08.10 West Indonesia Time. After hanging up the call from Professor Sari, Frans got out of his car with Eddy, his co-worker. The two of them arrived in front of the house of Sofina Nur Aina, a student of the Faculty of Teacher Training and Education at Siupala University who was a victim of sexual harassment by her Thesis Supervisor. Frans and Eddy would carry out a special report of the sexual harassment case experienced by Sofina in early October 2016 during her thesis consultation. Anita Ratna Dewi, a final semester student of the Department of Education at Siupala University approached Frans and Eddy who were standing in front of Sofina's house. Anita is Sofina's best friend since the two of them were in the same class in high school. "From the Media Kampus News, right, Mas?" Anita asked Frans and Eddy. "That's right, Ma'am. I'm Frans, this is my coll
In another location, still on the same day, October 19, 2016, at 09.00 Western Indonesia Time, Professor Ida was sitting in his chair, typing the Year-End Work Report of the Faculty of Mathematics and Technology, Siupala University. Next to her laptop, there was a copy of the Media Kampus News newspaper which she bought from a newspaper delivery man on her way to work. Reading the headlines and the contents of the newspaper headlines made her smile to herself. "This is the right time to put Dirman into the Chair of the Rector Election Committee," she thought. Professor Ida pressed a 12-digit number on his cellphone screen to call Dirman as his interlocutor. "Morning, Assalamu'alaikum, Mr. Dirman," Professor Ida said. "Morning, Mrs. Ida. Wa'alaikumsalam. Is there anything I can help you with, Ma'am?" Dirman said. "Yes. Please convey to all faculty leaders who support Professor Mirza to gather in my room this afternoon,
I am fully confident that I will be elected as the chairman of Rector Election Committee which will be held tomorrow," said Dirman."That's good then, sir. Prepare your mental and health condition to stay fit tomorrow," said Professor Ida."Okay, ma'am."Professor Ida ended her short dialogue with Dirman, a figure who currently relied on by Professor Mirza's supporters as the Chairman of the Rector's Committee.Tomorrow, 20th October 2016, Dirman would fight Professor Sari from the Faculty of Economics and Finance for the position at the Siupala University Senate Meeting.----------------------#############--------------------Professor Mirza stood in front of the first-floor lobby of the Indonesian Executive Makassar Hotel, carrying a suitcase in his right hand. He waited for the Orange Bird Taxi to arrive, which would take him to Sultan Hasanuddin Internati
The question from his only daughter made Mirza a little surprised, for a moment. However, Mirza remained still and relaxed in responding to Lusi's question. "It's impossible for such a father to burden your husband with strange tasks that violate the rules," "Really? Don't you lie?" "Hmm. Are you still doubting your own father?" "I don't mean to doubt you as my father. I don't want Dirman to be burdened with things beyond his responsibility," said Lusi, softly. "Keep relaxed, my daughter. You don't have to worry about that. Wait for dad in Surabaya this afternoon, okay?" "Yes. Be careful on the way, Dad," Professor Mirza ended the conversation with his daughter after greeting. He put his phone back in his shirt pocket. "Are we still far away?" He asked the taxi driver. "Yes, sir.
I'm still waiting for directions from the faculty's dean. I heard that Mr. Dirgo as the dean will provide facilities in the form of a lawyer to assist me in litigating the events that I have experienced,""Hmm. So far, has the rector given any attention to what happened to you?" asked Frans, again."Not yet. Perhaps, the rector is busier for running himself again for the next period, rather than paying attention to students like me," replied Sofina, sadly."Hmm. Be patient," said Eddy.Seeing the situation that tends to lead to a sad atmosphere, Anita tried to break the tension."Come on, let's eat first. The food won't taste good when it's cold," said Anita.Shortly after, the four of them started eating lunch together when it was exactly mid-noon.October 19th, 2016, at 12:15 West Indonesia Time, the weather in Surabaya was cloudy. Lusi still faithfully accompanies her son in the orchid room, Hadiwijoyo Regional General Hospital.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, we have just landed in Juanda International Airport, Surabaya, Indonesia. The time is now 01:00 p.m. Please be seated and do not activate your gadget until the airplane stops. Be aware of your belongings. Finally, we would like to deliver our gratitude for your trust in using Indonesia Airlines for your trip. Thank you, and have a nice day ahead"The Indonesia Airlines plane landed on the runway of Juanda International Airport, Surabaya well and smoothly. Moments later, the plane stopped in its parking area.Professor Mirza got off the plane and entered the Domestic Arrival Terminal at Juanda International Airport. In the waiting room, he called his beloved daughter who was taking care of his granddaughter being hospitalized at the Hadiwijoyo Regional General Hospital (RSUD)."Lusi, I have arrived at Juanda Airport and will go straight to the hospital. Wait for my arrival," Mirza ordered.&n
