Dowager Bohay

First Date

"Rose, I'm not allowed to help you. I got a test call at one of the companies I sent her a cover letter to. Can I go?" asked Djiwa with a voice made as heavy as leaving the Rose alone.

"Of course you can dong, Mas. The future of Mas Djiwa is more important than helping my chicken business. Go, Mas. I pray that Mas will be accepted to work there" said Rose with a smile.

Praying for a woman?

Only Mama who has been praying for Djiwa and also ... Jasmine. No other woman prays for the success of Djiwa. It feels like the heart of Djiwa is warm. It is not wrong for her eyes to choose a woman.

The soul stared at the rose closely. The woman in front of him was different. Despite her dark past, Djiwa believes the Rose is a very good woman. "Aamiinu. Thank you Rose for your prayers. God will surely grant the prayers of women as good as you."

Rose's face flushed hearing the praises of Djiwa. The next day, Djiwa. He could not bring the Rose to the market because he had to prepare himself for a meeting that was quite draining his concentration. The news is coming, there's a lot to ask.

During this time Djiwa entrusts his company to Rendi, his personal assistant. Just control it but not jump directly. If until the Papa knew Djiwa did not hold the company all this time, surely in a short time his Papa will send Djiwa home while his mission to get the Rose has not succeeded.

Djiwa returned to the company with a respectful gaze from his men. Many miss the handsome face of the conglomerate boy who is rarely seen this month. The face that makes the passionate employees come to work to attract the sympathy of Djiwa.

The intelligent brained soul mastered the meeting material in a short time. "Where have you been this month? Why do you rarely come to the office?" ask Papa.

"Lazy, Pa. Want to follow the current trend, WFH aka work form home. It doesn't matter as long as the job can still handle Djiwa?" ask back Djiwa.

"No problem anyway. As long as you can take good care of the company, Papa is okay. What about Papa's plan to match you with a subsidiary owner of a telecommunications company? When are you going to meet her?" Papa Djiwa always wanted his son to marry a woman from the upper class and Djiwa always refused him.

"Djiwa .. still can't, Pa." Djiwa put on a sad face as if remembering her past. "The heart of Djiwa is not ready."

"Died again? You've been breaking up with her for a long time, why haven't you moved on yet?" Papa has now been exposed to the game of Djiwa.

"Difficult, Pa. The wound is too deep. Let Djiwa enjoy the quiet life of Djiwa huh, Pa." Djiwa stared blankly at the front, supporting her sad acting so that Papa believed.

"If you keep this up, how can Papa quickly have a grandson? Just look at the son of the owner of the Damar Corporation! Although he was divorced, now refer and already have a handsome boy. Papa when?" papa protest.

"soon. Papa pray for Djiwa! Go home first, Pa. Greetings to Mama!" Djiwa leaves her Papa accompanied by Rendi who faithfully follows where her boss is going.

Djiwa replaced his expensive shirt and suit with a regular shirt and returned to riding his butut Supra motorcycle. The rose cannot suspect who he is. In this disguise, Djiwa can see who really loves him sincerely, not just see his treasure alone.

"How did the test result go?" ask the Rose who welcomes the arrival of Djiwa with a smile.

"Still waiting for an answer, Rose. How's shop?" ask back Djiwa.

"Today none of the apps bought but thank God someone booked for a meeting at the office. I have nothing to lose" reported Rose.

Djiwa. Rendi has been told to order and distribute to the marketing department. He did not want the Rose to lose because the application was temporarily shut down during Djiwa's departure.

After changing clothes, Djiwa secretly turned on the application again and orders began to arrive. Roses that do not understand the application do not know that the Djiwa who deliberately turned it off even assume Djiwa brought hockey and orders immediately arrived when Djiwa came.

"Walk? Where's where?" ask the Rose.

"Where only. We're getting on my bike. I want to know what Jakarta is like. You want to accompany me?" ask Djiwa.

"Just want. I haven't been walking in a long time either. How about we go to the Old Town?" bring Roses.

"Old Town? It must be hot by noon. Why does the Rose not want to go to the Mall the hell is cool?" djiwa in the heart.

"Why Mas? Djiwa doesn't want to?" ask the Rose who saw the change in the face of the Soul.

"You know. I was just confused which way the bike was going. Afraid stray. You don't want to just go to the movies? I think we're passing the Mall to the market." Djiwa hopes that Roses will go to the Mall only.

"May too, Mama. I haven't been to the movies in a long time."

Alhamdulillah ...

Grateful in the heart. No need to heat up today.

The next morning, the Rose had dressed up and was ready to go with Djiwa. The soul is like that too. His collared shirt with the cheapest price is still able to make him look handsome.

Djiwa again fascinated to see the Rose who wears a tight shirt and jeans with dark blue jeans. Actually the Rose style of dress is simple, but the bohay face and posture make it look more sexy and attractive than other women.

Djiwa deliberately chose a seat at the top and corner. Medium size pop corn with two small size colas, according to their simple dating theme. Romantic action film deliberately Djiwa select, so that the moment fit.

Instead of watching a movie, Djiwa was busy stealing glances at the beautiful woman next to him who was seriously staring at the big screen in front of him. Every Rose laughs, Djiwa smiles. Never before had Djiwa admired a woman like this.

It is not enough to see only the rose. The soul also grasped the right hand of the Rose with a gaze towards the screen. Roses were shocked when his hands were grasped, when he glanced at the soul of the man seemed to smile with dimples that made his good looks more visible.

The rose felt her face flushed in this dark room. He lowered his face, letting Djiwa's hand grip him with a smile. It feels very comfortable to hold the hand of another man.

"Maybe I have to follow my heart once in a while, not just follow my logic" said the Rose.

Throughout the movie, the two are still holding hands. Their fingers are tied to a warm heart. Djiwa smiled as the woman who filled her heart also had the same feeling. A happy smile flashed on his face.

Until the lights are turned on and all the spectators come out, they become the last to come out. The soul who would not let go of the Rose's hand, continued to hold her while throwing away her face in shame. The rose is like that too. Without a word, but they realize that their two hearts are already linked. A month together they have made their love bond.

"Why am I like a virgin child who just knows love? How humiliating! Just holding hands has made the heart beat-degan. Could this be the end of my love journey?" inner Djiwa.
