BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL

BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT BEAUTIFUL
39. Gossip About Rara



It has been one in the morning, but these eyes do not want to be closed because they think about many things. One of them is about Yuni. Somehow my heart was still sad to think about how Yuni would be in the future given how the people around me would respond. When we took Ms. Yuni to the hospital, there were spicy babbles coming from people's mouths, especially if later they knew that she was pregnant out of wedlock. Yes Allah .


Then suddenly Arif said this afternoon when we met in the hospital, about Monika who was pregnant out of wedlock.


Is it true that it was Ken's son?


My hand moved quickly to turn on HP. Looking for social media Monika, there is a photo of her baby marked by one of her siblings.


The baby has a hereditary face. It's not clear right. But his stature was beautiful, just like Ken's. His nose was equally sharp, black and thick hair, as well as a taper face.


"Oh my God, what does all this mean?" my head was pulsing slowly, I immediately turned off the HP. I don't know, I don't dare to imagine. What if all of this was Arif's wits, given how nosy he was, including his devious ideas.


But what if the baby was Ken's son. The last person to be in a relationship with Monika is Ken.


Ughhhh, I don't want to be made dizzy. But still the mind. How'this?


[Ken,] I finally did that stupid thing, sent a message to his number.


[Ra, are you awake?] Ken replied quickly. That's a sign he's waking up.


[What are you doing?]


[You salad. Why?]


[Oh, that's okay.]


[You want to wake me up, Ra? If you don't need Ra now. Remain Rara who takes care of her company. God willing there is an alarm that wakes Ra. If you are married, then I will.]


[No, who wants to build you up. I haven't even slept.]


[Lho, why Ra?]


Ihhhhhh, why even send messages to each other. I should have asked you directly, if Monika's baby is Ken's. But if Ken was that bad, now he's praying at night. He should be good dong. Even in the office, he kept his prayers. If azan roars, run straight to Mushalla.


Yallah .. I was really dizzy.


[Ra, why haven't you slept? Sleep there first. Or tomorrow you don't have to go to work. You need to rest. I don't want you to get sick.] A new message came in from Ken. [It's readable, but not reciprocated. Why are you Ra? My thoughts? Patience, so if invited to marry do not retreat.]


Ken ... can you, don't be sweet like that? I'm also an ordinary man. You can easily fall in love if you pay too much attention!


I immediately turned it off. I don't want to keep thinking about her anymore, now's not the time to fall in love, at least until I'm sure that the baby isn't Ken's child. If it is true, how? Oh Allah ...

"Sir Rara, it's six o'clock. Come on, dawn!" dinda's voice banged on the room door.


These eyes still feel sleepy. I don't know what time I fell asleep, but when I heard the word six o'clock and the dawn prayer, I jumped out of bed, then ran to the bathroom.


"Yes Allah .. forgive me!" repeatedly asked. How is this, because Ken thought, all night my eyes could not be closed until late waking up and also dawn prayers.


After the prayer, I took a shower, then went out to breakfast. At the dinner table there was already a mama and Dinda who were enjoying a glass of milk and toast.


"Ra, you woke up late" said Mama. "Veasy?"


"No ma," I answered, wiping the jam on the bread.


"Keep why?" ask mama again.


"Most still think of Arif, ma." chirped Rara.


"Just boy. It's not it!" I answered jutek.


"If not, why did Rara get up late?" Dinda looked at me carefully.


"Adadeh, the little boy just wants to know!" I said. "Ma, Rara left first huh, afraid it's too late!" I kissed the back of my hand, then passed with my mouth still full of bread.


Bismilbornrahmanirrahim's. Have a nice day. No distractions, especially from Arif!


I started running the motor, drove to the office. The streets are getting crowded, so be careful. While passing the police post near the red light, I saw Rangga was busy arranging the highway. He waved his hand when we looked at him.


It's also great that he can recognize me among many other bikers. Unknowingly, I smiled.


"Good morning Rara!" greet Arif. "I'm new to Ken's room, uh, Ken I mean!" he chuckles. Sucks. I hope this is not a sign that my heart will be bad. "What don't you want to hear us talk about?"


"No!" answer me, as it passes.


"Rome!" suddenly Anita approached. "Ra, do you really have a candidate?"


"What candidate?"


"Prospective husband."


"No."


"Udahlah Ra, just say it. It's been spread out."


"What photo?"


"That's, it's in our office social media group. Arif put it on display."


"What?"


Ughhhh, I looked towards Arif who was smiling triumphantly. Really this kid, early in the morning has pissed me off. Just be careful if he spreads the no-no. Really don't knock him.


"Rara, geez, I'm really happy to see her, you finally got Arif's replacement. Until he's legowo so."


"Ra, this one's good too. Fit in with you. You are both cute. His face is similar, too."


"Ra, usually if the face is similar, it's a sign of a soul mate you know."


"Udah Ra, don't be long. Just hurry up."


"Ra, I really pray that this one doesn't fail again like before. You're a good person, deserve the best."


"MasyaAllah Rara, when is the invitation? Don't be long, Ra."


"It turns out secretly Rara's fast-moving too. Congratulations to Ra!"


I don't know how many office friends are intercepting to congratulate me on something I don't understand.


I quickly passed into my room, but in front of the meeting room, I passed Ken. His usually sweet demeanor now turned cold, like ice in a freezer.


"Oh so that's why you can't sleep all night?" said Ken.


"What?" I looked at him confused.


"You really make me angry, Ra!"


"What are you talking about, Ken?"


"Ken? Mr Ken!"


"Oh, yes. Mr Ken! I'm sorry sir, I forgot because I usually don't like being called father."


"Please take care of Ra's attitude. I am your leader. Even if I like you, it doesn't mean you can behave. Understood!"


"Yes, Ken! Now can I go to my room?"


"Who forbids it?"


"Yes already."


"Bye,"


"What?"


"Lunch time I'll wait for you in the parking lot. We need to talk!"


Moreover, the work of Arif so that it makes Ken who is usually attentive so fierce like that. Oh my God .. until when is a bitch like Arif going to be a trial in my life?
