"Vin, now you like to play lego?" asked Mr. Umar who saw Alvin was compiling a lego near the door.

"Not really, sir. It's an additional task from the little boss," Alvin replied as he chuckled, recalling Naura's cute face.

"Little boss?" Mr. Umar seemed to be frowning.

"Yes, Sir. My new boss's son. Coincidentally I was taken to visit his house, continue to be introduced to his family–" Alvin also told of his first experience visiting his boss' house.

"So this is a request from the little girl?" asked Mr. Umar, after hearing Alvin's story.

"Yes, sir, and tomorrow I have to take it again" replied Alvin.

Pak Umar seemed to nod his head faintly, while paying attention to the arrangement of the lego that was a third so.

"Want me to help? It's night, Vin," said Mr. Umar.

"No need, sir. Let me work alone, this whole thing is also a short stay," Alvin refused.

"Heem, yes, if so safe to do," said Mr. Umar teasing Alvin.

In the morning, Alvin immediately brought the lego that had been arranged to the office, to be given to Ezra. His intention was to leave it to Naura. However, Ezra just rejected it.

"Give it to myself, I don't accept anything." That was the answer given by Ezra, when Alvin was about to give his homemade lego to Naura.

"But, sir, can I come home again, Father?" asked Alvin doubtfully.

"Who forbid you to come back to my house, Vin?" Ezra asked the question.

Alvin grimaced at the question from his new boss.

"Nothing, sir," Alvin replied as he rubbed his nape awkwardly.

In the afternoon, Ezra suddenly contacted Alvin by telephone. Making Alvin who was focusing on his work immediately distracted him.

"Let me go home," orders Ezra who was immediately approved by Alvin, the man went from his seat then tidied up the work table before coming to his boss' room.

Working as an assistant to Ezra was not easy, Keenan's words a few days ago really felt by him since the first day of working with the man.

Like today, for example, just yesterday he learned the car with Keenan, now Alvin has been ordered to drive Ezra's car and drive him home. Of course all that makes Alvin feel very nervous.

But fortunately Alvin can go through it smoothly, even though several times he seems to almost make a mistake, if not warned by Ezra.

Until a while later Alvin had managed to park Ezra's car in his yard safely.

"Good work, Vin," said Ezra, patting Alvin on the shoulder, then out of the car.

Alvin exhaled violently repeatedly, cupping his head on the steering wheel of the car. The journey from office to home is like a test of courage for him. It was really quite a stressful experience, considering he was not sure he had mastered the boss' car.

Moments in the car, Alvin lifted his head as soon as a knock on the door sounded.

"Om Al, Om Al!" The voice of a call from someone who Alvin already knew who he was made Alvin smile, then opened the door slowly.

He could see the little girl who was none other than Naura standing beside the car he was driving.

"Assalamualikum, little girl," Alvin said with a smile.

"Columbia, Om Al. Where's legonya? Papah said, Om Al, bring lego for Rara?" naura asked directly to collect Alvin's promise yesterday.

"There's a dong, take it a minute, Om take it first," replied Alvin as he returned to the car and took the box he had prepared beforehand.

"Here it is" said Alvin again, carrying a fairly large box in his hand.

"Wow! Here, Om, Rara wants to see!" Naura looked excited as she looked at the sizable box in Alvin's hands.

"Eh, not here, let Om Alvin bring it in, we open it there. How's it?" said Alvin while leaning his body on Naura.

"Eum, come on in, Om. Rara can't wait to see." Naura nodded with a big smile.

"Yes, let's go see Papah and Mamah, first," Alvin said as he glanced at Ezra and his wife who appeared to be still standing on the porch.

"Come on!" naura nodded, then ran towards Ezra and Nindi was, ahead of Alvin.

Naura's cheerfulness makes Alvin smile, every look at the little girl's bright face and laughter, making him remember Alin, who had long since parted with her.

"Sir, Ma'am" said Alvin when he was in front of the couple.

Ezra's wife seemed to be smiling faintly while nodding her faint head in response to Alvin's greeting. The graceful and gentle attitude shown by Nindi, made Alvin always amazed at the wife of his boss.

However, seeing Ezra's sharp gaze on him and Ezra's hand that kept coiling around his wife's waist, made Alvin aware of the position to keep his distance from the woman.

"Let's go in first" said Nindi invited Alvin.

"Thank you, ma'am," Alvin replied in obedience.

Ah, it seems true Mr. Keenan said yesterday. I had to refract myself to see the affection of Mr. Ezra and his wife, Inner Alvin, while stepping into the house, following the couple who walked first.

Arriving inside, of course, Ezra and Nindi went straight upstairs, while Alvin was invited to the Naura playground by the little girl.

Alvin immediately opened the wrapping box of the lego arrangement which made him barely sleep all night.

"Well, that's great for the palace, Om!" exclaimed Naura while jumping small so happy.

Alvin smiled faintly at the happiness of the little girl who always reminded him of her sister.

Alvin threw his tired body on the floor with his hands stretched straight to the side, his breathing looking fast, up and down.

His clothes looked messy with his face looking tired, even the black circumference under his eyes was clearly visible, signifying how tired and busy Alvin had been.

"Why, Vin?" asked Mang Lukman who had just come from inside.

"It's okay, Mang. Just want to straighten your back," replied Alvin while arranging his veins.

Mang Lukman looked back inside, moments later he came back with a glass of water in his hand.

"You're why the hell, how can people be chased by villagers?" asked Mang Lukman is still curious about Alvin's condition that looks sad, even though Alvin has never looked so tired like this while working anywhere.

"It's okay, Mang. Just finished pushing the motor, because I forgot the contents of the sneeze," replied Alvin while waking up from his sleep.

"Drink first! How can you forget about gas?" asked Mang Lukman while thrusting the glass in his hand.

"Thank you, Mang" said Alvin, taking the glass, then sipping the water to the toilet.

"Well, I think it's really thirsty," ledek Mang Lukman with an amused smile.

"Hehe, yes, Mang. It was also quite good to push the motor," said Alvin.

"Why did you forget?" ask Mang Lukman again.

"It should have been yesterday that I was filling up with gas before I left for work, uh I knew that the nights I was called again and given a job until now. Earlier, when the work was finished, I had forgotten the contents of the gasoline, so it even broke down in the middle of the road," replied Alvin at length.

"Oh my goodness, Alvin-Alvin. Usually it's if new people have a bike in love, not even made hungry," Mang Lukman shook his head to see the behavior of his distant nephew.

"Hehe, come on, Mang. Let him know how it feels to be hard on me," replied Alvin chuckled amusedly, hearing Mang Lukman call his bike hungry because he forgot to be refueled.

"Well, you can do it, Vin!" Mang Lukman seemed to understand the words of Alvin.

"Working in this company really made me cranky, Mang. The boss is firm and has to be fast paced, so I also have to keep up with his work style. Where only a few days of work I've had to investigate something, like police detectives only," Alvin argues, given his job to investigate the bullying that occurred at Naura's school.

Ah, it seems that during his work in various fields, this is the first time Alvin complained to others.

"Then how do you want?" asked Mang Lukman, chuckling.

"It's okay, just want to tell me. You know, I want to tell Mama, but there's no time for nengokin" Alvin replied casually.

"Huh, you son of a bitch!" Mang Lukman seemed to laugh at Alvin's reply.

It seems that the progress of Ganis' health is indeed very influential for Alvin, since Alvin looks more alive and vibrant than before. The man also looked more open and relaxed, although tired on his face was very visible.

Alvin even often went home late at night, then left again in the morning, because of work that did not know the time. However, it seems Alvin is happy to work at the company.
