DESERVEDLY

Chapter 41 - Helping Each Other

An annoyed face was clearly drawn on Benny. He just came out of the Big Boss's room. It's time to go home from work too, so Benny's step continues to be swung towards the motor park while still displaying his upset face. Co-workers who cross paths until they dare not say hello let alone question.

When in the parking lot, there are Devano and Jefri who also intend to go home after completing their work. For a few seconds, Benny flashed a sharp eye especially at Jefri. Not wanting to lose to Benny, Jefri also raised the same gaze, but not so long because there was a Devano who reminded.

Too bad, unexpectedly Benny just approached Jefri. With still maintaining a sharp eye gaze and an annoyed face, Benny ptotes. The one who was protesting was Jefri. Because of Jefri's proposal at that time, Benny would soon be transferred out of town. Just counting the days.

“You're satisfied!” Benny's gaze grew sharp against Jefri.

Jefri smiled wryly, as a confirmation also that he was not afraid of Benny at all. However, Jefri's smile offended Benny. Completely offended until his upset face turned into an unstoppable emotion again. Jefri's right hand clenched, then swung toward Jefri's face. But, failed. Devano nimbly dispelled Benny's fist.

“Don't be like a child. If you're not willing to move to work, be frank with Mr. Boss.” Devano is firm, wise, and truly a reliable mediator.

Benny kept his fist away from Devano's hand. Furthermore, there was absolutely no response, let alone comment. All Benny did was return to give Jefri a sharp eye, then leave.

Seeing Benny who seemed defeated by Devano's words, Jefri immediately smiled broadly, then embraced Devano.

“Thanks, Bro. You are the best.”

Devano was happy, but his heart still held a worry. From the incident just now, it was clear that Benny had emotions for Jefri. Do not rule out the possibility of his emotions actually turned into an attitude of hate.

***

Benny's motor was stopped at one of the mini cafes. There was an appointment he had made with Dhea. He said there was an interesting offer that Dhea had prepared for him.

“Hai, Ben. What's with your face, ha?” ask Dhea.

“Front month I moved to work.”

“You fired?”

Benny was still an emotion, he was so reluctant to make an explanation at length. Dhea's lemon tea that was still intact was quickly taken over, scooped up its contents to half toilet.

“You thirsty, Ben? Let me order again, will you?”

“No need.”

“Good. But, tell me first what has happened until your face is upset like that.”

At first Benny was still reluctant, but Dhea kept pressing. With a little seduction spoiled by Dhea, Benny finally collapsed and immediately told all, including the chronology of the fist that had just been thwarted by Devano.

“Wait-wait. Devano's words, you know. Why not be frank with Mr. Boss if you don't want to be moved.”

“The salary offered is quite large.”

“So why be upset with Jeje? Em ... I mean Je-fri?” Dhea Keceplosan mentions Jefri's childhood name.

“Because Jefri recommended my name.”

“Ya, yes. Why is it so angry? You said his salary was also good.”

“I hate it.”

“Truly like your little boy, Ben. Don't look for enemies, though. Especially with Jefri. I don't like you being hostile to him. Just be careful if you continue!”

Benny underlined the line of defense that Dhea addressed to Jefrri. Why did Dhea suddenly defend Jefri? Since when has Dhea been so concerned? Dan, what's the point? That's the question that's spinning around Benny's head.

“Do you know Jefri well?” ask Benny.

“Eng-nggaak. Who says I know Jefri? Ngawur it.” Dhea still did not intend to be honest with her past.

“Conscious no? Just now you defended him,” Benny said, wanting more explanation.

“Ah, tidbits. Back to the discussion of moving work. Why do you recommend Devano? You deliberately wanted to keep Devano away from me, didn't you?”

Dhea is really smart at making diversions. He instead brought up the name Devano which Benny initially recognized as a recommended name.

“It's precisely because I care about you, Dhea. With Devano out of town, he will be far away from Intan. And you can make an opportunity. Did I plan wrong like that?”

Unexpectedly, Benny actually thought far ahead, and that he did for Dhea.

“Wow. Good idea, anyway.”

“Unfortunately Mr. Boss has already told me and I cannot ignore that salary offer.”

“Then why were you so angry at Jefri?”

Again he brought Benny's anger to Jefri. Actually, Dhea was very curious, why Benny could be so hateful to Jefri. The reason is not just dislike.

“Dhea, do you intend to defend Jefri again?”

“No. Absolutely not.” Dhea's eyeballs are spinning. Quickly he's looking for a diversion. “Oya, about the offer I mean .. do you still want to hear it?”

Benny nodded. It was for this reason that he instantly fulfilled his appointment with Dhea.

“Begini. I need your help to make Devano look back at me.”

Benny quickly threw his eyes to the right, took a slow breath, then again looked at Dhea with a smile. Benny had expected it before. The offer that Dhea intended would certainly not be far from the name Devano.

“What's the reciprocal for me?” Benny continued to develop his smile. If it was an offer, there must have been something profitable.

“In exchange, I will help you unite with someone you love. How?”

“That sounds good.” Benny mangosteen.

“Mumpung Devano same Intan not officially married. So, the opportunity for me is still open.” Dhea was so confident.

Benny nodded again. Her smile widened while noticing Dhea's change in expression that seemed more excited than before.

“OK. I concur. I helped you, and you helped me.”

“Asian. Do you have any plans?” Dhea was more excited to welcome Benny's willingness.

“Can be set later. I can take Devano out of town on the grounds of a temporary team. Like a contract system of several months, then finished once there is a development.”

Benny was very confident in his idea this time. He would arrange for words to convince the Big Boss Sir.

“Wow. You're reliable, Ben. Then it's my turn. Tell me, who is he?” What Dhea meant was the woman Benny loved.

“You know him,” Benny said.

Dhea thought for a moment, trying to find a woman's name. But, there was nothing in his mind. Because, all this time Dhea was not too close to ready-who except Benny and his ex-lover.

“Who, Ben? Just tell me his name.”

Benny leaned his face, closer to Dhea, then said, “You are the one. Dhea, I like you.”

The deg!

Dhea's face spontaneously changed. The spirit that was stirring, now go somewhere. Benny's statement was shocking, until Dhea could not say anything.

“Why silence, Darling?” Benny acted, he deliberately called Dhea with a loving greeting.

“You're kidding, right?” Dhea still can't believe it.

“I'm serious."

Dhea gulped, then shifted her eyes. Suddenly Dhea was uncomfortable with Benny's gaze on her.

“Post definitely not me!” Dhea tried to deny.

“I like you. That's the fact.”

“You know very well who I like. That's Devano, not you. You're just my friend,” insisted Dhea.

“Then, why? This feeling arises because of our friendship.”

“Why did you say? How can you be willing to help me unite with Devano while the person you like is me?”

It's complicated what Dhea is facing. Initially, he thought all his plans would go smoothly, but what happened was not so.

“Its okay. I will indeed help you with Devano. As per the offer, you should also help me.”

Dhea was silent, half widening her eyes. Benny's words were not understood by him at all.

“I have no problem seeing you married to Devano. But make me your second love. I can be your mistress.”

“You're gilla. Really gilla!”

Dhea began to move from her seat, intending to leave Benny.

“Dhea, I'm no less tough than Devano! I can satisfy you!”

“Basic gilla! You're gilla!"

Dhea is really gone. While Benny, he widened his smile even more. It didn't matter to him if it was considered a guilla, most importantly the sense it had already been successfully revealed by him.

“I know, you won't accept me,” muttered Benny, can already guess the ending that happened. "This feeling arises because of our friendship. But, our friendship actually ended because of the expression of feelings that I couldn't prevent." Benny cheek.

Shortly thereafter, Benny also chose to leave the cafe. He had no plans any more than to mentally prepare him to work in a new place. About Dhea, Benny will also forget about her. For the thing that just happened, Benny has no regrets at all. At the very least, Dhea would not ask for her help anymore. That's how Benny thinks.

Benny's bike was still a quarter of the way when he saw Intan. Yes, Benny who had started memorizing Intan's stature was very sure that what he was currently seeing was Intan.

Benny saw Intan receiving a phone call on the bridge, while looking at the rushing stream from the river just below the bridge. The car seemed to be parked not far from there.

“What is he doing?” Benny wondered.

Benny's eyes only sidetracked for a moment because he saw a small child who suddenly ran towards the streets. Benny reflexively stops his bike to avoid a collision. Not only that, Benny also stopped the motor, approached the little boy, then checked his condition.

“Luck is fine,” Benny said, relieved. “Other times be careful yes, Deck. Play at home only,” his advice later.

After that, Benny returned to his bike. When intending to turn on the motor, he already did not see Intan on the bridge. But, something's weird. The car is still there. Benny had already circulated his gaze in all directions, but did not see the existence of Intan.

“Yes do jump into the river, anyway? But that is impossible.”

Not wanting to think anymore, Benny stopped looking. Plus, Benny felt he didn't really know Intan. Be, Benny continues to drive his bike away from the bridge area.

Intan motorbikes still exist in the bridge area until the afternoon arrives, until dusk semit to the world, and until the stars and moon adorn the night sky. Where's Intan?
