A tough day

Along the way I came home incessantly I cried, until my chest was tight and my breath was wheezing. I stopped my steps and decided to sit for a while in a chair belonging to a restaurant that seemed to be closing. The dim restaurant headlights benefit me who currently does not want to be seen by anyone.

I closed my hot eyes with my palm while holding my breath back. Some tourists and local people are still passing by. I checked my phone, time showed at 20 past 18 minutes. There are some incoming messages that I missed this afternoon. Two messages from Beni, and five from Dira.

Beni: "Mrs Galang how are you?" 😜

Beni: "yahhh dicuekin, definitely again lalala yeyeye nih 😲"

I'm lazy to reply to Beni's message tonight. Then I opened a message from Dira

Dira: "again holiday huh?? "

Dira : "all day? "

Dira: "definitely read it through the notifications again"

Dira: "why hasn't Nami answered??"

Dira: "if not reciprocated, tomorrow I send something again just to the office 😋🤭"

I just read the message for a while and hung up my phone again.

Suddenly my phone rang, I saw Dira's name there. I let it ring a few times.

There's a message back from Dira

Dira: "angry huh? Please pick up my phone Nami"

I'm just moaning, Right now my mind is in a mess and I don't want to be disturbed at all. I felt the contents of my backpack, the remaining mineral water bottle this afternoon was still there. I used the water to wash my face. I rubbed my eyes a few times to make them look fresh. After I calmed down I continued my journey home. When I got home slowly I opened the gate, and hurried to close it back and lock it.

In a hurry, I entered the room. Fortunately the meme and the father were resting inside. So I don't need to explain right now what's going on.

After taking a shower, I looked at my face in front of the mirror, my eyes looked swollen."the ice water compress should be able to reduce the swelling" I muttered to myself. After taking ice water from the refrigerator, 2 pieces of cotton I put in it. My cotton wool squeezed a little and I stuck it on both of my closed eyelids.

I repeatedly put a cold cotton pad in my eyelid, somehow, maybe because of fatigue I fell asleep.

This morning unlike the previous days, leaving for work became a very hard thing to do. I almost decided not to go to the office today, but I stopped doing it because I remembered some unfinished work I did before yesterday's holiday. My eyes are still a bit puffy but much better than last night. I decided to use thicker make-up to cover up my sad face.

"Mek who went to the office nah (my mother left for the office yah) "I said without turning to the meme, I was afraid he saw the misgivings of my eyes.

"Sing breakfast shy deck? (no breakfast on deck? " My mother was half screaming from the kitchen

"Sing mek, who hurriedly looked up " (No ma'am, I was in a hurry by noon)

I drove my motorbike through the streets that seemed to start crowded vehicles.

In the office I avoid eye contact with anyone, even if I have to look I do it briefly. Ms. Ida probably felt my strangeness this morning, because I was more silent and busy with my own business.

"Nami, what's wrong with you? "

I turned my head quickly and smiled then my eyes returned to the computer screen in front of me.

"Why what mom? "

"Kok it feels different well, usually cheerful why today is more silent? "

"Don't be the same Dira-Dira is hehehehe" said Ida's mother while chuckling to herself

"I laughed, Not another mom" I turned back quickly.

"Well, Nami already has a boyfriend, I just remembered"

I didn't respond to Ida's chat anymore. Hearing the word girlfriend made me think back to last night. My tears uninvited came back, gathered to fill every gap in my eyes and pooled there.

"Nami... Nam. "ma Ida came closer and patted me on the shoulder.

I was surprised to realize from my daydream, one or two tears fell without me preventing any more. Ms. Ida was stunned and picked up a piece of tissue and thrust it in front of me who was trying to refrain from the attack of grief last night.

"Watch Namj's long breath, can I ask Oming to please make iced tea?? Let the feeling be better. " Bisik bu Ida

I nodded weakly. Ms. Ida directly contacted the pantri to look for Oming.

After a few deep breaths, my tears finally returned to their original place.

"Same problem girlfriend?"Ask Ms. Ida still whispering

I nodded slowly

"Nami should not need to work today, just rest so she can calm down "

"It was going to be so ma'am, but I immediately remembered my work that was still a lot in the office" I said whispering in a hoarse voice.

"Quick finish the important thing today, later what time I finish let Nami go home early, later I say suddenly dizzy or something, easy Nami" said Bu Ida with a smile.

"Good ma'am thank you" I said slowly.

Ms. Ida patted the back of my hand that was on my lap and went back to her desk.

For a moment Oming came with a glass of iced tea and he put it on my table.

"Thank you very much Ming" I said with a smile

"Sama-sama mba Nami" Then passed back to the pantry.

I sipped the sweet iced tea with

Be careful, "cold drinks when sad are always helping to restore my chaotic mood" I murmured inwardly.

The internal phone on my desk rang and I immediately picked up, I haven't had time to say a greeting Ratna before I speak "Mba Nami, there is another delivery "Said spirit.

Ida's brow rose as she turned towards me, hinting at the question "What's wrong?" After that call I closed. I shook my head "i want to look ahead" I hurried to the front office.

This time I saw a box with a famous brand of chicken steak in Denpasar along with fresh drinks piled on the table Ratna.

"It's not all mba, down here there are also some doughnuts, and this is specifically for mba Nami" Ratna handed me a black box with bbq beef ribs, one drink, one drink, one box of frozen youghurt and one box of dessert with a picture of a cake that I don't know.

"Help me again share to others well Ratna, thank you very much Ratna" I smiled.

"Well mba, I'm wholeheartedly happy to help mba, quite able to get a free lunch" Ratna chuckled
