Eqlima
Meeting with Loss

(Calico Sido Building Appears Racing Illustration in Leicester, England)

5 Days after an ominous Incident that left his career somewhat ruined, Eqlima was called upon by Calico Sido to appear Racing, the team that housed him in the FML Series, to come to their base for a cause. Without a lot of things that hampered him, Eqlima was immediately departing from the flat that he currently inhabits in Belgrave, he departed to the place with public transportation, which is available, an electric city bus that stopped at a bus station near his flat Eqlima.

Arriving there, Eqlima sat briefly on the bench in front of his Team Principal room and the team owner, Archer Calico, while he sat and waited, waiting, the assistant from Archer came and let Eqlima into the room.

Eqlima was welcome to sit on the chair and he looked around, and also had time to see a small picture frame Archer and Stephanie placed neatly on the main table, it was, he looked and asked in his heart about the photo "Wait, is this not Stephanie Calico? And this is Archer? How can they be together and as friendly as they are family?", "If you're still confused about the picture, it's because me and Stephanie are a couple!" Archer said as he walked out of the toilet and sat in the front seat of Eqlima. Eqlima's face also expressed as if confused by his eyebrows slightly raised and his eyes wide open to hear it, "Oiya Eqlima, sorry if it bothers you a little to come here, to be honest, there is little I will talk about, one of which is that I no longer want to extend your contract" said the Aussie man who started the conversation.

"I know you're talented and great, but unfortunately fate can't stand with you"

Continue the words of Archer.

"meaning?" Ask Eqlima whose face is a bit serious at the moment

"Look, I had time to negotiate with other parties about where you are going after this, it seems you will no longer race here, not because you are not great, but because you are not great, but the FML series no longer has the funds in its implementation."

"And....What does this team have to do?"

"We can no longer help you in the upcoming races, even in other series. Because we also have not been able to penetrate Formula 1 about finances and sponsors, even in other series."

"So, you want to disband because the FML is no longer continuing? There are 3 series left, right?"

"FML also has trouble finding supporters after its ratings are low and its fans are few, and we may not necessarily be able to support you at other race levels."

After the conversation, Archer took a suitcase of money for the last severance payer Eqlima who could no longer race with the team and put it on the table saying "This, this, your last severance before we split up here". Eqlima took it with a sigh and said goodbye to Archer shaking hands, "I hope you succeed after this, see you later." Archer waved his hand as Eqlima was about to leave the room.

With both hands bandaged and his head slightly plastered on the forehead as if not make Eqlima embarrassed to walk in front of Heathrow Airport, he said, because not everyone knows him and not really all know about him even though he is a racer. He went straight to the plane because he had bought it through the Online application, the plane will land first in Singapore, only then he can order another plane there to Indonesia, he said, there are not many conversations when leaving for a flight except when checking tickets, luggage and on the plane.

Departing with a mind that is still flashback with the events that he had experienced a few days back made Eqlima could not stop looking at the window at his side, he fell asleep on the plane until the plane arrived in Singapore. In Singapore too, he only enjoys solitude at the hotel until the time the flight to Indonesia arrives, ranging from relaxing at the hotel Spa, relaxing at the swimming pool, until eating at the restaurant with his own work for 2 days, there he did not talk to anyone else except about messaging something, after the day of departure arrived, there, he went to Changi Airport again to return to Indonesia.

...****************...

On the plane to Indonesia, then the interaction occurred, a woman similar to Ra Mi-ran sat next to Eqlima and greeted Eqlima "Hi Kak, the older brother of Formula 1 drivers, right?" But Eqlima who was confused he immediately replied "No, I'm FML Series, another series of Formula 1 that contains all women.", and they also chatted about serious things while the plane was still flying towards Soekarno-Hatta

" Can we meet?" Said the woman

"Okay, my name is Eqlima, who are you until you get to know me further?" Ask Eqlima while shaking hands with the woman.

"My name is Misnah, a scouting agent who is looking for an unemployed racer around here to be invited abroad".

"Scouting Agent? How far will you send me?"

"Nih some races that I want you to make tested" said Misnah while putting some pamphlets containing IndyCar, F4 Asia, Le Mans Prototype and other races.

Eqlima also read one by one the pamphlet, but none of it was interesting for Eqlima, which made Eqlima think the most when he saw IndyCar which reminded him of past events where his mother was spiked, which made him feel guilty, squeezed breast section and ********** right in front of him when he was a child, at that time he chose to follow his mother who happened to be divorced with his father who is a basket and likes to play women.

While he was flashback with the incident, there was a little boy who came to Eqlima and asked Eqlima to take a miniature mask that resembled his face with Eqlima itself as a gift from fans, after signing it, after signing it, Misnah began to talk about Eqlima who had done a gesture of thought that "Hei Eqlima, there is a problem with my pamphlet? I think you're thinking about something or you're dizzy making your choice." But Eqlima also replied to the statement of Misnah while taking the Mask given by the boy and signing his jacket in return, "I am confused if I can be honest, I am now the level of Formula 2, he said,it's not F4 anymore, and if I'm racing on IndyCar, I'm reminded of something about my mom, and if I'm at WEC, it's not my forte." Misnah was silent after hearing Eqlima's words.

...****************...

Arriving in Indonesia, Misnah who went down along with Eqlima immediately met with Eqlima, when they both will come out of the garage to the waiting room, he said, many people waited and Eqlima thought that some of them came from the mass media, so Eqlima was still in Garbarata and like waiting for something, "Eh mbak Eqlima, why here?" Said Misnah who from earlier dizzy see Eqlima, "Mbak, mbak, are not you older than me? You see your face, you're about 29." Reply Eqlima who performed a restless gesture with Misnah, "Oh sorry yes, abis I think that you are more pro than me" said Misnah with a small laugh, Eqlima also showed his annoyed face because it was considered older, but at that time also Eqlima had an idea to avoid Mass Media waiting on the way out of the airport, "Hey mbak Misnah, he said, here deh" said Eqlima while whispering something to Misnah, then Misnah also responded "Oh, okay deh, easy it is mah, here hand over to Misnah!". And after that Misnah immediately took the Mask that had given the little boy Eqlima fan from the hands of Eqlima who was removed from the pocket of his jacket, then Misnah walked into the hallway and said " Hello everyone! You guys are looking for me, right?", some of the deceived Mass Media reporters immediately chased after Misnah while Eqlima went straight to the check-in room and immediately took his suitcase there leaving Misnah who was being chased by the media crew.
