A Match For Brother

Resigning?

🌺

🌺

The trip home that afternoon was quiet, no one had any intention of starting the conversation as usual. They are engrossed in their own thoughts.

The weather is rather sunny, and the sun still looks golden in the afternoon sky of Bandung city, with heavy traffic as usual days.

They passed through the area where Melly's cafe burned down more than a month ago.

Vania straightened her seat, and her gaze was fixed on that spot.

"I want to stop by the bang first" he said as their car passed right in front of the cafe area.

Without asking much Arya turned the car she was driving to the parking lot in front of the cafe.

Vania was stunned by the debris she last visited the night the fire broke out, police lines still encircled parts of the building, some boards seen as covering areas critical to security. And again it reminded him of a deep sense of loss.

"You want to come down?" Arya turned off her car engine a few meters from the front of the cafe.

Vania sighed deeply and heavily, her heart of course feeling tight and sore. Seeing the only precious treasure left by his grandfather and father that they had pioneered from scratch shattered before his eyes. Melly's good intentions maintain it as a backup so that they still have a livelihood judged by Rahma who is dominated by greed. Not to mention because of the influence of Rian who may continue to be embedded in the mind of the aunt to seize his rights even in a bad way.

"Because it's not ours, it's gone, even if it's within our grasp." Arya was embracing his shoulder.

Again, Vania sighed and exhaled slowly, as if trying to neutralize the heart-wrenching feeling.

"We're home?" take Arya to him.

"Would you walk for a minute?" Vania looked up.

"Where's the road?"

"Neither way, around here. Maybe they will rarely come here. I'm afraid I miss this place, which I've been through for years since childhood."

"Alright, but have to promise after this not to be sad anymore."

"Yes." Yeah."

"OK." Then they walked down the sidewalk along that road. Passing high-rise buildings and hotel buildings. Other cafes are also restaurants that are in the area.

"I just found out that there's a city park around here too?" the two sat on the first garden chair they found. Vania rests her back on Arya's outstretched arm behind her body.

"It's been a while. Maybe it's because you're too busy and it's rare to go down this road so you don't know." Arya grabbed her hand until their fingers interlocked.

"Oh yeah?"

"Yes. And lately there's been a lot of new city parks."

"That's great. Don't just build a building, right? let Bandung not get hotter."

"That's how."

"Eh, .. if no one makes the building continue brother work what dong?"

Arya just smiled.

"Will no one order another building design dong?" the woman lifted her body and then looked.

"The design message will always be there, not just for the building, but also for the house, restaurant, or something else."

"Times?"

"Yes." Yeah." Arya nodded at a glance. "There will always be people building things, or opening new businesses that need new ideas and designs. Not only here, design orders from the city of laon are always there."

"So that brother's job will not be quiet dong huh?"

"Every job will have its ups and downs. It depends on the trends and interests of the community."

"Oh, .. Yeah, right?"

"Yes, any job is the same. It will not always be below and not always above. Just like your efforts are sometimes crowded and sometimes can also be quiet."

"Hmm. you know, the cafe was once just a small restaurant, not far from my store now. But grandfather sold some plots of land to make the place bigger. With mom's same effort, and sometimes me too, be that big cafe. Especially in the hands of mothers who make many new menus, and nerima many events that make cafes can be like now. Which unfortunately even makes Aunt Rahma misunderstand. She thinks mom wants to master the cafe alone, but mom is because let us still have income without having to bother working in the place of people." Vania rested her head on the man's arm.

"But every thing will find its own test, won't it? we just don't know when and what. We think the cafe is strong and stable because it is this big, famous also among visitors. Many are interested in holding an event there but we do not know, the insiders themselves hold a grudge and do something beyond our expectations." replied Arya.

"Keep, will there be another test after this?" Vania looked up slightly to see her husband's face.

"No idea, but I think it's natural. As you said, his name is also alive must be a lot of tests, if a lot of sesame his name is onde-onde." the man chuckled.

"Ish, ..when did I say that?" Vania frowned.

"That time."

"When? I don't remember."

"Don't remember then, you'll get dizzy." Arya chuckled again.

"But... will we be all right after this?" Vania looked again.

"of course. What are you worried about?"

"No idea, just a little scared."

"Fear what?"

"I don't know, ..." Vania shrugged her shoulders.

"We'll be fine, as long as we stay together."

"Hm...

"Don't worry about anything. We'll be fine."

"Medicine already?" they were already in bed, and Vania laid herself down beside Arya, who then pulled her up to their bodies.

"Udah." the woman replied.

"Now sleep."

"Anything sleepy?" he looked at Arya whose gaze was focused on the television ahead there.

"Yet, maybe soon" replied the man.

"I'm the cafe's mind, keep my mom's mind as well."

"Actually, my brother wanted to forbid you to stop there, afraid that you would think of a cafe, but my brother did not have the heart. You know it's like this?"

"Hu'um, .. but how will mom, right now the cafe can not operate?"

"Tomorrow we'll look at Mom."

"Ng .. okay."

"Now go to sleep" said the man, who pressed his embrace on Vania's shoulder.

"What else?"

"When we get up again what's the cafe?" the woman raised her head.

"Huh?"

"We woke up again. From zero." reworked Vania.

Arya was silent, and she instead looked at the face of the woman above her who was slightly smiling, as well as her two eyebrows that she slightly raised up.

"You want to renovate the store, continue while building the cafe again?"

"Eee... mostly yes?"

"Will it not bother? and again to build a cafe from scratch requires a very large cost."

"How big?"

"Very big. We have to first destroy the remaining debris, then rebuild everything from scratch. They call it a rebuild system. In addition to many things that must be calculated, there are also many costs that we have to spend on it."

Vania was silent looking at her husband's face, an idea had even appeared in her brain.

"If I don't credit again the same brother, will be given no?"

"What?" the man reacted. "New brother acc last noon now want to submit again?"

"Yes." Yeah." Vania nodded her head.

"No way, no way."

"Why? have to wait for this one to clear up first?"

"Not."

"Keep why can't you?"

"You think you have that kind of money to rebuild the cafe?"

"No really?"

"Where is that much money? Is this brother a rich businessman?"

"I think you have one?"

Arya laughed loudly.

"His money's up for the renovation of my store?" asked Vania innocently.

"There's still."

"Why did you say there wasn't?"

"There's still savings, but not that much."

"Oh, .. I think a lot." Vania with a disappointed tone.

Arya thought for a moment.

"If Mr. Harlan's classmate might have."

"Well, ... how about we borrow some Om Harlan?"

"No way."

"Why?"

"It's impossible, why would we borrow it from Mr. Harlan? do you want to add to the burden? every month we have to pay installments, even though the income of the cafe is also not necessarily how much we get?"

"Yes, too."

"But .. if you resign maybe we will get enough money, ..."

"Times?"

"Yes, the severance pay that my brother will get is big enough to resign."

"Oh yeah?"

"Do you just resign to get severance pay, so you can wake up in the cafe again?"

Vania fell silent, and looked back at her husband's face.

"How much money will you get if you resign?"

"much. Almost twenty years old brother worked there, times his monthly salary."

"What are the years now?"

"Dear the years now."

They think a little long.

"A lot of bang."

"Hm...

"Can start waking up the cafe."

"Yes, but maybe not completely."

"Yes." Yeah."

"Do you have to resign to get the severance pay?"

Vania was silent again.

"Janga deh, later you do not work anymore, if that's even me who dizzy." Vania again poked her head against Aryan's chest.

"Serious ...

"We think of another way" said the woman, then wrapped her hands around her husband's body.

"But Van ...

"Sleep ah, .. I'm sleepy."
