Beware of Hypocrites!

Back to the first old days before Henry met Made and befriended him. Henry encountered so many of peoples with few of them were terrible hypocrites. One of them really gave Henry a huge impact and Henry still remembering that bad memory he encountered with that hypocrite person.

Once Henry was still alone and astrayed without purpose for his first days at Kuta area. He found himself dropped into an annual event of which was held inside a small shopping arcade at Kediri street. Some kind of Indonesian art & culture campaign festival featuring Balinese dances and performances. Also there was bazaar of traditional ethnic handicrafts from traditional locals.

The purpose of the event was about campaign effort for promoting Indonesian art cultures through tourism channel and there were plenty of peoples attended the event. The event was held for almost a month, though Henry didn't attend it for full time due to a petty incident upon him.

Henry was clueless as for the first time he tried to get along with the guests in the event. Not until he left the place without any usefulness he could get, he met few good peoples of whom he trusted them prior he discovered Made. Those good peoples were the participants of the event and they also opened their own stall selling traditional crafts from Borneo.

Henry spoke to one of the person who was a staff of that Borneo's stall and she was woman quite older than him and Henry regarded her as like as her sister and because of Henry was a gay, thus Henry didn't find her appeal to his favor. Then another woman who're in her 40s and she was the boss of her Borneo stall. They reciprocated Henry eagerly and Henry sensed if their reciprocation against his presence was sincere.

But however that was also one person Henry recognized prior them and Henry regretted his fate to recognize that person who was considered by Henry as a hypocrite hag. She's even older than and allegedly owned the shopping arcade as she was supposed to make the event in the shopping arcade.

For first time Henry was just convinced by that person and tried to make believe, but that's another thing for Henry to realize later, because Henry sensed something wrong from that person after Henry talked to her in person. Her annoyingly haughty and superior manner made Henry uneasy ever since first time, though Henry didn't find wrong things from her to prove his feeling.

Henry talked to that person and wished for anything useful Henry could get, maybe any job vacancy suggestions. But in the aftermath, Henry found if that person's under condescending idiom from her critics against Henry's incapability was so sharp and somewhat insulting. Henry realized it immediately.

Then it was a face of hypocrisy shown through her fake smile as if trying not to offend Henry in purpose. But Henry thought it was useless already to fool him. Henry felt disheartened and he left the vicinity early before the event was dismissed before 10PM.

But however the good peoples those Henry recognized prior asked him to come back next days because that was a barong dance show which will be shown in latter event and Henry was invited to watch the show. At least that thing cheered Henry a bit. Henry was curious as he did never see barong dance in reality and thought if the show would worth him something useful.

Henry promised to attend the latter event and he was excited as that was his first encounter with barong dance and Henry saw the barong mask and body costume was on display. The gamelan repertoire was prepared already by the musicians along with the gamelan ensemble instruments on the stage.

But however the barong was just the small one and not impressed him so much. Nevertheless Henry didn't complain about the show as the barong dance show was awesome with the gamelan repertoire on the stage. Henry enjoyed the show until that so called hypocrite hag ambushed into him and made Henry particularly shocked.

That meanie hag irrationally accused Henry to be annoying against her guest who should be an important person to his event campaign. Henry was so shocked as that meanie hag threatened Henry to expel him out of her event with disdainfully. Oh what the hell was happened?! Henry was dumbfounded and disheartened.

Henry didn't annoy anyone in the event and that meanie hag's guests who should be her important guests didn't even realize anything annoying them. Henry just took the wrong seat which was already prepared by that meanie hag for her guests. But that wasn't a serious matter as Henry can just leave the seat immediately after informed.

Nevertheless, that meanie hag behaved so nasty and unfriendly against Henry, as if she want to seeking for trouble with Henry. Disheartened Henry planned to leave the place even before the barong dance show was over. Henry thought it didn't worth him anything but an unwanted animosity brought by that meanie hag to him.

Not until Henry left the place with great discontentment, he was consoled by the boss of that Borneo stall of whom he recognized prior. She was disagreed with that meanie hag's attitude towards Henry and she asked Henry to ignore her instead of seeking for trouble with that meanie hag.

Henry watched the barong show till the end and he didn't feel excited anymore post the incident prior. Once more that meanie hag tried to seeking for trouble with Henry and Henry can't restrained his anger anymore. Thus Henry backfired her unpleasant complaining words in order to defend himself from her silly accusation.

Henry promised that someday, that meanie hag would pay hard for her unjust treatment against him. Henry braved himself as he regarded that meanie hag was so guilty and also shameless. Her so nasty double faced character was very obvious and that made Henry even more disgusted upon observing her.

Henry finally left the place after the show was ended. Surely Henry was unhappy because of the incident. But however that Borneo's boss mistress upon listened to Henry's story tried to support Henry morally and chastised that meanie hag's attitude towards Henry. At least that was someone who was willing to stand by Henry upon the incident.

After the incident, Henry's hardships became harsher and unpleasant. His parents kept harassing him and asking him to give up his plan, then return home as a loser. But however Henry didn't want to give up just like that and he struggled even harder until he discovered Made and got his very first job as a tour guide.

Henry retold again his story to his Xander. Upon responding, Xander defended Henry and his reason from that meanie hag and her unreasonable accusations. Xander also retold the same experience which befallen him since his first days at Bali island.

Xander didn't want to give up just like that and he struggled hard until he got his very first job as a professional chef worked at few different foreign restaurants, with the last one which he persisted till present was a cafeteria at one elite gym center in Kerobokan area.

Xander admitted if he was totally clean and sober, abstain from drinking and smoking, even night clubbing, thus he can sustain his perfect muscle body shape along with his supreme healthiness. As a chef, Xander's specialty was elaborated yet healthy cookings and he was appreciated much for his great apprehension against healthy foods preparation. Henry was more than just pleased and he praised Xander much.

Xander understood Henry's wish to have his very first body transformation and Xander decided to train Henry for free as his special boyfriend, even a couple due to their affections kept growing time by time. In return Henry dedicated his dutiful deeds as preparing meals and take care of Xander as well as household duties.

Surely days became brighter in Henry's life after he got Xander as his soulmate. Such the petty incidents became a lesson Henry learned prior and thus made him even stronger and wiser. Xander appreciated Henry's wise and mature attitude for everything and promised Henry the great result Henry would get within Xander's work on his body transformation. Henry would no longer that melancholic lanky guy with big desperation therefore.
