After the Farewell

Rayden Takahashi

Kara glanced at her watch which showed at five in the afternoon and it appeared that Sophia had also started to finish the work on her desk.

"How did you get home, Ra? Can't you order ojol?" ask Sophia. "Do I take you home?"

"Don't Ma! Pity Jonathan if mom has to take me, turn around and get stuck later. I let him borrow his account Mr. Yanto just in front" replied Kara. Mr. Yanto is a hotel security guard who is usually asked to borrow an account for online ojek messages if low battery employees.

Sophia nodded as it would definitely be more night till home if she escorted Kara, and her son Jonathan could protest.

"Yes, be careful on the road, don't forget to change your phone because it is important for your work mobility."

"Ready Ma'am!"

Mr. Yanto stared at the horror of seeing Kara's cell phone mutate into a crack here and there and willing to help Bu Sophia's assistant.

"Holy shit, Kara. How could his phone be like this?" ask the fifty-year-old.

"The name is also a disaster sir" said Kara.

"This is the address?" Mr. Yanto shows the status of online ojek booking.

"Yes sir."

Mr. Yanto also pressed the message button. "Then until mbak."

"Thank you sir" Kara smiled.

Before long, the online motorcycle in green clothes came. "Sir Yanto?"

"Yes, but the rising mbaknya because hpnya broken, bang" replied Mr. Yanto.

"Let's brother."

Kara waved to Mr. Yanto and the driver split the road to take Kara home.

"Oh my goodness non Kara. How is this going? When to buy your phone?" tanya bik Ijah who is concerned to see Kara's phone.

"Later out of the Maghrib, I will go to Ujang. He sells cell phones too" replied Kara, who remembered her neighbor opening a counter.

"Yes non, the important thing is there is a cell phone. It's important for non-that!"

"I take a shower first. This bus we eat yes, I'm hungry" Kara said as she entered her room.

"Ashiapp non!"

Kara has finished performing Maghrib prayers and is getting ready to head to the Ujang counter to buy a new mobile phone. Cheap is not what is important to communicate.

When he was about to take the sandals off the shoe rack, the sound of a knock on the fence left him confused. Who's coming? Masa mas Adi again?

Kara opened the door and was shocked to see Rayden standing outside the fence. He was still wearing a shirt without a suit and his arms were rolled up to his elbows. His handsome face looked increasingly bad boy with such a style.

"Who are you looking for, sir?" ask Bik Ijah who came out from the side door near the kitchen.

"Where are the restaurants?" ask Rayden cuek.

Bik Ijah giggled. "There's a master, wait a minute." The woman opened the fence lock of the house. "Please enter sir..."

"Rayden's."

"Monggo Mr. Rayden."

The man came in with a paper bag and a laptop. Kara who was standing in front of the main door was just side by side staring at Rayden.

"Good night, Kara Santan" Rayden greeted with a smile.

"Night Mr. Takahashi. What do you need to come here?" ask Kara coldly.

"Please let me in first! Maghri-maghrib should not stand at the door!"

Kara turns her body around and Rayden follows the housewife. The man's gray eyes were impressed with the arrangement of Kara's house. Indeed, the furniture is not a new piece of furniture but looks stylish with given a lot of knick knacks.

"Please sit down, Mr. Takahashi."

Rayden sat down and placed the laptop on the guest table.

"Where's your phone?" pinta Rayden without further ado.

"You want diapain?"

"I'm moving the data! Since you don't believe me, then I will do it in front of you!"

"Are you acquaintances?"

"Just know the name."

Rayden was about to open his mouth but Ijah's bik already came to bring two cups of hot tea and snacks along with Kara's cracked phone.

Kara glared at Ijah's sassy bik giving the phone to Rayden.

"Bik Ijaaahh!" hisses.

"Please sir, it is important for non Kara if there is no mobile phone" pinta bik Ijah.

"Calm down bik. I bought this new one to replace Kara's broken phone." Rayden opens Kara's new cell phone box and starts setting.

Kara looks at the phone Rayden bought. God, it costs me three times my salary! The eman-eman!

"Do you prefer Indonesian or English for the language on your phone?" rayden asked as if he did not see Kara's surprised face.

"english. I'm confused if it's Indonesian."

Rayden smile. After setting up her new phone, she plugged in a USB cable to her laptop as well as Kara's old phone.

"It'll take time" Rayden drank his tea and ate his snack.

"Mr Takahashi, isn't the phone too expensive?"

Rayden just stared leisurely at Kara. "Your phone is from the time of the dinosaurs!"

"But it can still be used!" dispute Kara.

"So morning! Now?" ledek Rayden's.

Kara just moved her lips while she was holding her side.

You are excited when you pose like that.

"Mr Rayden has dinner yet?" ask Ijah's bik who made Kara swerve towards her maid.

"Not yet bik" replied Rayden as it is.

"Monggo if you want to eat, already prepared aunt."

"Bik Ijah what the hell?" hiss Kara is upset. "Later he'll be a tom!"

"And Mr. Rayden has replaced non Kara's cell phone, yes it's appropriate we reply even though only dinner." Bik Ijah then looked at Rayden again. "But there are only sour vegetables, fried tempeh and salted fish. No papa sir?"

"There's sambal, right?" ask Rayden.

"That's sir!" smile makes me proud. "Mr Rayden indo but doyan sambal too."

"I bule java bik. Goody! I'm so hungry!" Rayden stands up and heads towards the dining table and Kara suddenly feels her house is cramped due to Rayden's tall and well-proportioned body.

Rayden without hesitation sat down at the dining table that had been prepared by bik Ijah.

"Have you eaten?" rayden asked after washing his hands from a special bowl.

"It."

Rayden held out his plate towards Kara sitting opposite him. "Please get me some rice."

Kara's lips are gaping. "Take it yourself why?"

Rayden did not answer but continued to hold out the plate and made Kara forced to accept the plate while grieving softly.

"Here?" tanyanya after scooping rice.

"Yes!" Rayden also received a plate that had rice on it and took salted fish, tempeh and sambal. Artificial sour vegetables bik Ijah did not escape from the feed.

"Bik! It's so delicious!" praise Rayden sincerely.

"Eat a lot of mister!" bik Ijah stove.

Kara could only bellow at the words of her maid. Rayden smiled cunningly.
