Chapter 18 - Welcome Back

 Dirga PoVs

Out of Juanda airport I took a lot of breath. Feels so relieved. Surabaya, a city I have missed so much. Two months did not set foot in my hometown.

Not only is all the beauty and congestion I miss but more than that.

How's the girl doing. Does he miss me too? As I have always felt.

I smile. Imagine that he will soon meet her.

" ahem.." Deheman's voice a man broke my daydream.

Who else if not Ferdy. My personal assistant and confidant.

" what does the boss smile to himself. Kangen is with me. " Ferdy's ascending

lower his eyebrows teasing me.

" the insolent basis. Is that how you welcome me."

Suddenly Ferdy hit my body. This guy hugged me so tight.

" Welcome back boss. Miss you. Miss you so much." I felt a pat on my back.

I tried to release Ferdy's body from feeling embarrassed by a few glances

people passing around us. They must have thought that Ferdy and I were a gay couple. I shuddered in horror at my thoughts just now.

" Ferdy.. Get your body off and get away from me. You don't see their eyes.... Horrible."

" that's why boss. I'm just hugging you." Ferdy distanced his body and grabbed the suitcase that was on my side.

" this we want to go directly to the house or to the office first, "ask me

" to the office "I answer briefly

" waduh boss, already miss the same office. Just now until I want to go straight to work ."

" who wants to work."

" he said he wanted to go straight to the office. How is boss. Don't plan for the boss."

" yes, go to the office. Make your nurunin. "

" so the boss just wants to drive me to that office. Lha klo so why I'm tired of being told to pick everything up. The boss can take a taxi. "

" who is the boss here me or you ?. "

" yes, Dirga's boss. "

" continue... "

" hehe.... Ready boss. We're going to the office. "

I got in the car and sat down at the wheel. Ferdy's got the car. As per my orders Ferdy took me to the office.

Arriving at the office I didn't have to bother to go inside. I left this office two months ago. There was actually a desire for me to go in and look around the office as long as I left. But more important matters have awaited me.

As soon as Ferdy got off I immediately grabbed the car keys and switched the bow sitting behind the wheel.

" be careful on the way boss.” I still heard Ferdy screaming as I darted out of the office area.

-------

Everything was in my hopes. Upon entering the residential complex area I saw a girl with a pink helmet enter the courtyard of a house. It's not wrong anymore. She is the girl I miss so much. Camila Wijaya's.

I stopped my car in front of the fence. The girl looked up and then squinted her eyes. As soon as I got out of the car, he looked surprised.

" Hi Mila. How are you?" my broom.

Camila still didn't look at me. I want to put him in my arms. I miss him so much. But I can still control myself. There's no way I'm doing anything crazy in this place. I could have been dragged away by the security complex.

I took off my black glasses. With a big smile, I still look at her pretty face.

" Mila's... You're home, baby." I turned to the source of the voice.

A middle-aged woman came out from inside the house. The woman frowned then looked at me and Camila took turns.

" oh there's a guest apparently. Why wasn't the guest asked to come in."

It was as if he had just woken up from his shock at seeing me suddenly being here. Mila looked at her mother.

" yes Bun. A moment."

The woman I knew was her mother Camila walking towards me and extending her hand.

" I'm Camila's mother. "

I received Mother Camila's hand.

" i'm Dirga aunty." I said introducing myself.

" it looks like I've met Dirga's son huh."

" he's Danu Bun." Camila.

" Danu your schoolmate once. oh pantesan seems to have met mother. If it's not wrong, this Dirga boy who used to drive Mila home is not it."

" aunty is right. I did drive Mila. "

" Come on in. It's not good talking outside like this. Mila let's get her guests in. "

" yes Bun. "

Mother Camila walked in front of me and I followed her while Mila chose to walk behind me.

" oh don't bother a aunt. "

" no papa. wait a minute. " Mother has already darted into the house.

I sat in one of the chairs in the minimalist living room of Camila's house. While Camila herself prefers to sit in a chair opposite to the one I sit.

" how are you, Mil. "I asked you, stale. Long time no see makes the atmosphere a little awkward.

" i'm good. Alhamdulillahot. By yourself."

" Thank God, I am good too. A long time ago, we didn't meet."

" yes.. long time no see om dirge, so a little pangling. "

I frowned at Mila's words.

" panglings. Cook it anyway."

" he uh, long time no see om Dirga. Now it looks more... ...... Old-fangled. "

I can still hear what Mila just said even though she said the word" old" very softly.

I chuckled because it was undeniable that my age had already stepped on the head of three. No wonder I look older.

" that's the shell that makes Dirga look old. Emang deliberately ya lengthened it berewoknya. Is it because it doesn't get taken care of like a bush like that."

I laughed when I heard it. To me it was a joke.

" yes, you're right. Because no one takes care of me and taking care of me becomes like this. I'm still waiting for you to be my nurse. "

" what the hell om. " Camila swooned.

Our conversation has stalled because Mommy has now come up with a tray containing two glasses of iced syrup, a setoples of pastries and a plate of brownies.

" Let's go get Dirga drunk first. All the cakes are tasted.

" i'm sorry Dirga's aunt has taken care of."

" a ga ngerepotin. Oh yes Mila dear. Um Mommy wants to go to Budhe's house

now it's. Budhe Jasmine called back saying she was sick and now being treated

in the hospital. So Mother must go there immediately. You can't be the same budhem alone there. "

" Budhe hurts what bun. "

" it was on Budhe's phone saying he was typed. Pity Budhemu in the hospital no one is taking care of. "

" do keep Mother want to leave when. "

" yes now to nduk. Mother also called travel. "

" who is Mother the same ? Why not just Ken. "

" Mother is alone. If your brother comes along who will take care of the resto. "

" Mother can't be alone. Let Mila anter. Try Mother give her travel number to Mila. Let Mila book one more seat."

" you didn't go to college. "

" tomorrow is Saturday. On Sunday, Mila will be home. Let Monday go to college again. "

I'm still listening to this mother and son talk without any intention of chiming in. But somehow got a boost from where I suddenly thought I wanted to drive them. Than they ride travel.

" ahem.". "I cleared my throat. Trying to get attention from both of them.

" Mila, aunt eum.. How about Dirga alone. So no need to ride travel." bargained me

" don't need to om. We're going on a trip." Mila immediately refused.

" yes, son Dirga. We're used to going on a trip ."

" a papa aunty. Dirga also no longer have a meeting at home rather than alone mending

nemenin aunty and Mila. "I'm still trying to persuade them.

" but Mila's Budhenya house is far from Dirga's. "

I saw Mila called someone more precisely the travel office. With her face bent Mila put her cell phone on the table.

" Mother, the journey is full. You can't get one more seat. "

" yes it's not papa let Mother go alone. "

" but Bun. Mila could not bear if mother had to go alone. If it's on the road there's nothing."

" Mila, the old Mother has often traveled alone. Don't you worry so. "

" aunties..... "

Mother and Camila both turned their heads towards me.

" i'll drop you off. Better auntie with Mila get ready soon. "

" but son Dirga..... "

" aunty.. Pli... Dirga ain't nothing. Dirga used to travel far out of town. "

" am Dirga is serious, really want anther. "

" you think I'm kidding. Buruan ready to be ready later on . "
