CHAPTER 16
Exactly at the time of the night of the party that was held simply at the house of mr. bambang is finished, all guests have returned to their respective homes as well as Pak aksan.
Now it is only me and Mr. Bambang who are sitting on a luxurious sofa owned by Mr. Bambang.
Kinayah who had gone to his room first no longer came out.
Suddenly, Mr. Bambang began to talk to break the silence between us.
"have you eaten... Ask Mr. Bambang who has legally become my father-in-law.
Shamefully I answered his question.
" No sir.... But i'm.... My words again hang in the air because Mr. Bambang has stood up and invited me to eat like I refused his invitation but Mr. bambang very dislike to refuse, finally I forced myself to eat even though only a little, even though from then on, the hunger continued to surround my middle village.
"Why do you eat a little.... Ask mister bambang while looking at me.
" I'm full, sir... My answer.
"You must not be ashamed, if you are hungry contact aunt inem, do not be ashamed to consider your own home and one more you do not call me master, because from now on you are my son-in-law means you are also my son, so you have to call me papi and from tomorrow you have to stop working as a construction worker in my project but you have to help me in the company... Speak at length.
"Sorry sir but I'm not finishing school how I'm going to help you in such a big company, sorry not that I refused but I don't want you to suffer a big loss just because of my stupidity... Answer me by lying.
" But you have a family, already have a wife, if you stick with your job then your income will not be enough for the cost of living both of you.
"Sorry sir.... But I really do not want to accept all the gifts of the master, let me live my life in my own way and I will also ask permission to the master to bring kinayah moved to my rented house.
It looks like Mr. Bambang stopped chewing for a moment.... Then go back to chewing the food that has been in the bribe without talking again.
I chose to be quiet, but in my mind I thought that master Bambang would never let his daughter live in a boarding house that was very far from the word luxury.
Until in the end mister bambang spoke again with a smile after finishing eating.
"You should go to this room kinayah is late at night, about you and kinayah want to move we talk about it at another time... Rest, he said, calling aunt inem to show her where the room is.
"Yes sir .... Said the middle-aged woman.
" Inter andra to kinayah's room... His order.
"Good sir.
" Let's young master..... Take bi inem while walking in front of me.
After walking through the stairs we have now arrived in front of the room kinayah.
"Well.this is the young master of non kinayah room, said bi inem.
" bi... Call me Andra, don't use the young master's appendage, I'm not a rich man who deserves such a call.
"But young master aunt was afraid of being angered...
" Nobody will scold aunt, because I'm not who in this house.... I said with a smile.
"All right, Andra.
" Now that's better.. Bi.
"Then you excuse me, you want to continue your aunt's work.
" Please bi...
After the departure of my aunt I tried to dare to knock on the door of kinayah's room, but suddenly the lady of amalia came and invited me to sit on a balcony on the second floor with a paper in her hand.
"I want to talk to you, come with me, he said without a smile.
I followed the middle-aged woman who was none other than my mother-in-law to the second floor balcony.
