Dear, Soul!!

Karin's Hope

A few days ago, Fauzi met Farhan to discuss the issue of him wanting to quit his job and would only focus on keeping his wife with Alzheimer's. The results of his calculations with Farhan who gave Fauzi a bright spot at that time, finally came to fruition after Fauzi met Farhan's father, and Farhan's father was quite understanding of Fauzi's condition.

Farhan's father still offers the position of director if Fauzi intends to return to the workforce. Farhan's father, who used to make the man have one child, was a little reluctant every time he came to play at Farhan's house, now turned into a partner who was so warm to treat him. Yes, Fauzi's performance is very satisfying, it's only natural that Farhan's parents do not want to take Fauzi off for granted. His company was actually progressing under Fauzi's control.

“I understand your condition, this is indeed not a thing that requires you to keep taking care of work while the state of your wife really needs you on her side” Father Farhan said during a meeting yesterday. “But Fauzi, it's not that I want to hold you back longer, but as you know yourself that there are already some projects that are being run with you that started it. Nor can I immediately transfer your work to the new director candidate I have chosen. So I hope, while waiting for the person to come, you keep doing what you can do first”

“Iya Sir, some are also almost finished and I will finish” soon

“I know although there are some that are almost done, but there are still some that are still very much to be done to finish it and it will take a long time for you to finish everything, so I suggest that you hand it over to the new director later, so consult him and arrange how good it is that the project you are running is not neglected”

“Good Sir.”

“How about the cooperation you have filed with this last famous company?”

“It went well Sir, and is now in the process of drafting its implementation.”

“I heard, who intervened directly director also right?”

“True sir, he is the one who took over specifically this project”

“That too you should take good care of. He is a director, just like you. I don't want him to think I'm going to choose an irresponsible director if you move your job to a new director. Arrange how you can get the three of you to agree with each other before you resign. You mediate between the new director candidate I choose and the director who is running the project with you.

“Good Sir.”

Farhan's father was silent for a moment, then slowly got up from his seat and approached Fauzi. Fauzipun moved on, showing his ethics as an older person approached him.

“Fauzi, I know very well you are a good boy. So do not hesitate to me, you do not have to talk to Farhan first if you want to discuss things like this as I”

Fauzi was silent, though grateful that this conversation was smooth, but he still had time to denounce Farhan in his heart. “CK the boy complained?”

“From your teens playing in our house, how can you still feel this way about me?”

“I'm sorry pak”

Farhan's father approached, grabbing Fauzi in his arms.

“You are like my own son. I'm sorry for what happened to your wife.”

Fauzi's eyes began to glaze over. Feeling overwhelmed by Farhan's father's warm treatment, mixed with grief given his wife's current situation.

“Thanks Sir.”

If the person who sees is a person who does not know both, the person must assume that two men of different ages are father and son.

Fauzi did not want to waste his time, so soon he contacted Karin after meeting Farhan's father. He realized, Karin was not a woman who had the leisure to always be able to have time to meet him when he wanted to. However, Karin, who has shown great interest in Fauzi, easily cancels all her activities if she gets a meeting call from Fauzi.

Fauzi, who was waiting for Karin, tried to massage and regulate the condition of her eyes because of tears that had flooded because of the sense of sadness he got when he got the advice of a father from Farhan's father. Not to forget, Fauzi continues to monitor his wife's activities so as not to be cheated as happened a few days ago. His education that day, save his own trauma for him.

His eyes were still puffy, even a sad face was still clearly visible, but Fauzi was able to smile just by looking at his wife who was busy doing activities in her house.

“Hai..” Greet Karin with a sweet, ornate smile on her lips. Obviously, Karin's mood was very good today. Either because of his good work today or just a sense of happiness that he got after getting a phone call call to meet with Fauzi. Karin quickly took a sitting position in the empty seat in front of Fauzi.

Fauzi took his eyes off his phone screen, and smiled back at Karin, as well as a welcome to the woman who put her heart on him.

“Have a drink message??”

The thing that is not missed when meeting with Karin is, he who can not chat without accompanied by snacks or heavy meals, maybe it is just an excuse so that he can feel more relaxed when with Fauzi.

“But”

Karin quickly opened the menu book, sweeping the menu list with her gaze while thinking, what delicious thing to go through her throat this afternoon.

As usual, Fauzi would not choose much food or drink, so Karin no longer asked Fauzi and only ordered a cup of coffee for the man who had a special place in his heart.

“Hem what's up? Tumben met” Tanya Karin started the conversation as well as asking Fauzi's purpose to call her to meet this afternoon.

“Before I apologize, I know that you are busy, but I.”

“Skip skip.. I'm already here now, meaning I have time to meet you”

“Still..”

A friendly smile appears pretty on the thin lips covered in the color lipstick mauve owned Karin.

“I want to discuss the issue of cooperation that we previously agreed and we have discussed several times it”

“Iya, why?”

“Today, as you know, my wife's condition is getting worse and worse, so I should always be by her side to direct everything that she's mistaken to do”

Karin's enthusiasm was lost instantly when Fauzi began to talk about his wife. Fauzi's words sparked envy in Karin's heart.

“Iya, continue?”

“I'll quit work”

“A-what?? Stop working??” Karin asked clarifying what her sense of hearing had just caught.

“Iya. I'll stop working”

“Ta-but why? How do we keep our project?”

“That's why I called you to meet today. I want to discuss our project that I will release”

“Why suddenly? No, I mean how can you take responsibility for your job this easily?”

“I'm really sorry, but my condition is no longer able to require me to keep working”

“Not before you keep working with Salwa condition now?”

“Iya. Just a few days ago, I lost Salwa”

“Lost how do you mean?”

“Salwa's out of the house, and I can't find her. Therefore, I finally decided to stop working and stay at home just accompany Salwa”

It was obvious how disappointed Karin was at this moment. He was very enthusiastic about working on the project that was done with Fauzi. Through this project, he gets the opportunity to meet Fauzi more often and have enough time to be with the man of his dreams.

“So how about our work?”

“About that, I really ask for help with you Karin. I won't be able to resign if I don't get approval for the release of your performance responsibility. I really asked for help. Don't worry, Farhan's father has chosen a more reliable person to replace me, he will work better than I”

I don't need someone more reliable than you. Whatever it is, no matter how reliable the person is, it will still not be able to replace the comfort of working with you.

“If I said I didn't want to, how?”

Fauzi was shocked to hear Karin's rejection. He looked into Karin's eyes, which were disappointed there.

“Ke-why?”

“I started this project with you Fauzi, so how can I run it with others and finish it with others later. This is not an agreement in the previous contract”

“Today, I'm really sorry. My condition does not at all allow to continue working”

Karin was silent and looked at Fauzi, she really did not feel sincere about Fauzi's decision. He was aware of missing his chance to get closer to Fauzi with Fauzi taking this decision.

Karin has the right not to let Fauzi stop all work on the project they are working on together at the moment, as well as the right to cancel the cooperation they have agreed to before. That could have made Fauzi get sanctions from the company or lost the trust of some people who had admired him for the good performance results that Fauzi had obtained.

But again, love reigns above all else, there is a sense of not wanting to see the person he loves experiencing difficult times let alone begging very much to him. Fauzi's hopeful face shakes Karin's desire to force the man she loves to stay in her job.

“Good.” Karin replied after staying long enough.

“You're serious?”

Fauzi, who had previously been rejected by Karin, could not hide his pleasure when the woman sitting in front of him agreed to his request.

Karin nodded, though her expression did not show her agreement. While Fauzi did not care about what Karin's expression was, he only focused on the answer Karin gave.

“Ja-so, we can't see you again??” Karin asked showing her real concern.

“Certainly can, I am always ready to accept you when you visit my house.”

Karin smiled knot. “Either you are too plain or deliberately” murmured.

“Oh yes, some ahead I will invite you to meet again”

“When?” Ask Karin enthusiastically. Fauzi's statement just now was like a water that filled Karin's thirst for concern that might no longer have any reason to be able to meet Fauzi.

“Later, I will definitely tell you.”

Karin smiles. In his little heart he hoped, the next meeting was not a meeting like that just to take care of work. Huge expectations, the next meeting was a better meeting, maybe like Fauzi's thanks to him. It was not in terms of the rewards that Salwa wanted from their upcoming meeting, but rather the circumstances in which they could comfortably talk to each other without discussing work.
