Nio with a face that looked so tired finally closed his laptop when it was getting dark. He glanced back and forth and only realized that the library at that time looked so quiet.
"Haishh!! it didn't feel like it was dark, I've been here for almost 5 hours." Nio muttered softly as he hurriedly stuffed his laptop into his backpack.
With a quick step and seemed rushed, Nio continued to walk out of the library which at that time seemed to start dimming because some lights had been extinguished.
The campus is quite large and spacious, making it a little longer to get to where the car is parked. Nio got into his car while glancing at the circular watch on his wrist, and at that time it appeared to have shown at 19:40 p.m, to make Nio without wasting more time, immediately drive his car to go home.
"It's been longer than I thought, hmm I hope that Rena isn't angry for waiting for me too long." Nio murmured in the heart.
The other side of the Nio family residence...
That night Rena seemed quite agitated because Nio had not yet returned home even though it was night. Several times he was seen walking to the balcony in his room, walking back and forth for a while while his eyes continued to highlight towards the front yard of the house not far from the gate of the luxury house.
"It's almost 8 p.m., why isn't he home yet?" Asked Rena in a heart that at that time seemed a little anxious.
Several times also Rena had thought to re-contact Nio, but again the intention was immediately undo, he said, because he felt bad if he had to interrupt Nio's time especially when he was focusing on his script.
"Did I really have to contact her this time to ask her whereabouts?" Asked Rena alone while looking at the cellphone that was in his grasp at the time.
"Ah no, no! I don't want to be considered too possessive, maybe he continued to hang out with his friends, and I shouldn't ban him in that regard, because that has been his habit for a long time, even before we knew each other." Added Rena again who finally decided to go back to her bed and just put her phone on the bed.
"I'd better help bi Inah prepare dinner, and invite them to eat together." Think of Rena who finally stepped out of her room.
Rena stepped calmly down the stairs, at that time on the dining table was seen bi Inah who was serving some food menu in her own cooking.
"Geez, is auntie done cooking?" Ask Rena.
"Mommy, just finished."
"Hmm, looks like I'm late." Said Rena who looked a little disappointed while propping her hands on the table.
"Too late? Mean ma'am?" Ask bi Inah who looks a little confused.
"Oh hehehe, yes, that means I want to help my aunt cook, but it turns out that the food has even been served, hmm I feel bad."
"Haaaiissh ma'am, there's no need to feel bad, because it's aunt hehee's job." Bi Inah also chuckled softly.
Making Rena finally smiled and began to sit in the chair where she used to sit.
"Hmm yes already, then let's eat with bi, take Mr. Eko as well, because I don't want to eat alone tonight." Reveal Rena as she begins to turn the plate.
"on your own? Didn't Nio eat here, Mom?"
"Hmm yeah, chances are Nio didn't come to dinner here because he hasn't been home yet!" Answer Rena flat.
However, suddenly the voice of someone who sounded so familiar was heard answering what Rena said before.
"Who said I wouldn't be at dinner here?" Ask someone who was walking quietly towards the dining table.
Someone who is certainly none other than Antonio.
Rena who heard that turned her head toward the source of the voice with both eyes that seemed perfectly rounded when she looked at Nio who was not far from her.
"Ni,, Nio??" Said slowly.
Calmly, Nio finally sat down before Rena while continuing to look at her with a flat gaze because there was an Inah bi in their midst.
Rena finally snapped from her short daydream and immediately grabbed a spoon of rice to cover her clumsy and nervous attitude at that time.
"Ba, well ma'am, auntie call Eko first." Bi Inah also immediately stepped quickly towards the kitchen area that could penetrate into the room of the workers in the house.
At that time Nio finally started to look at Rena with a very fixed gaze and accompanied by a charming smile.
"Sorry baby, I'm home longer than predicted." Gentle Nio speech.
Rena, who was still silent at that time, began to glance at her with a flat face.
"Where have you been?" Ask later.
"Me?? Hmm, I'm not going anywhere, just in the library!" Answer Nio honestly.
"Hmm really?" Asked Rena who looked a little in disbelief.
"Right, baby, I'm not lying!" Nio Strictly.
Rena, who did not want to argue at that time, chose to remain silent while raising her eyebrows and shoulders briefly. Nio who saw that expression, quite understand if at that time Rena was still not sure of his words, but Nio had not had time to explain any longer, suddenly bi Inah has seen coming back along with Pak Eko.
"Ah come on bi, Mr. Eko, sit down, we eat now." Invite Rena who is trying to divert the conversation.
Dinner took place quietly, the night was a lot of silence, but different from Nio who actually impressed more talk to bi Inah and Pak Eko.
After dinner, Rena, who was speechless, chose to go up to her room first. Leaving Nio, bi Inah and Pak Eko who were still sitting at the dining table while eating dessert.
It was immediately made Nio pause for a moment while looking at the departure of Rena.
"Gosh, is he really mad because I've been home a lot longer? Or is he mad at me for thinking I'm going somewhere else?" Nio murmured in his heart as he again grabbed his drink glass, and immediately downed the drink until it ran aground.
"What about the script mas Nio? Is there no obstacle so far?" Tanya bi Inah who returned showed her concern for Nio.
"Hmm yeah, so far there's still no bi constraint, but don't know later." Replied Nio who then smiled faintly.
"Ah thankfully, hopefully the next will remain smooth and can be accepted directly by the lecturer without having to be revised."
"Hopefully so bi, thanks for the prayer bi."
"Hehehe yes mas Nio, aunty will always doain the best for mas Nio."
"Yes bi, thanks again a lot."
"Hmm, today I came home late that too for making papers for the thesis in the campus library, and it makes me feel so tired now, can I go in the room too?" Ask Nio politely which is actually just an excuse so that he can immediately follow Rena to the room without making the workers at home feel suspicious.
Although the status of bi Inah and Pak Eko are only workers in his home, but it does not reduce Nio's respect for them especially for bi Inah. Which even since Nio was little, he had already helped take care of Nio.
"Geez, of course it's okay mas Nio, mas Nio doesn't even need to ask for such permission, did mas Nio forget that we were just workers in this house hehehehe." Answer Mr. Eko while chuckling softly.
"Hmm don't be, whatever your status in this house, still I have to respect you as an older person."
"Yes thank you for that mas Nio hehehe. Mas Nio rest in peace, do you want to make a warm drink before mas Nio sleep?"
"Ah no need bi, it seems like I want to go straight to shower and sleep, I'm really very tired." Nio finally started to get up from his seat.
"Hmm yes, then." Bi Inah also smiled warmly while nodding briefly.
...Seriate......
