26. Restu Daddy.

Budi had just returned home to morning prayers at the mosque along with his father and younger siblings. When he was about to go up to his bedroom his father called him.

“Budi dad wants to talk,” said Mr. Aep.

Budi paused his intention to return to the room and then sat down beside his father.

“What's dad?”

Mr. Aep looked at his eldest son.

“Dad wants to know exactly what your relationship with Poppy is?” ask Mr. Aep.

“Mean father?” his father's question made Budi shocked.

“Daddy sees your relationship with Poppy as not just a superior relationship with subordinates.”

Be quiet, he said nothing. He just looked down.

“If it's just out of pity, I ask you not to continue your relationship with Poppy.” Said Mr. Aep.

Budi raised his face and looked at his father's face with a face that was difficult to understand.

“Poppy it needs a companion who loves and loves him with all his heart. Not a person who just pity him,” said Mr. Aep.

“Try to feel if someone proposed to Rimamu tea just because of compassion not because you love your neighbor. Surely you will not accept such a person to take care of Rima's tea husband,”

“So does Poppy. Don't you play on her feelings just because you pity her,”.

Look at his father.

“Budi loves and loves him, dad. A man's love and affection for a woman. Not the pity of a subordinate to his superior, father,” replied Budi who tried to convince his father.

“Good it's new men,” praise Mr. Aep.

“What about the child in the womb? Did you accept it?” ask Mr. Aep again.

“Budi loves children sholeh like children Budi himself,” replied Budi.

“Child shby?” Mr. Aep frowned in confusion.

“Budi names a fetus in Poppy with the name of a child sholeh. Because the name is prayer. Budi expects him to be a sholeh child if he is born later.”

“Dad did not expect you to think that mature Budi,” said Mr. Aep took a pat on his son's shoulder.

“How old is Poppy?” ask Mr. Aep.

“Twenty-Nine years. Two years older than Budi,” replied Budi.

“Do you not mind your age difference?” ask dad again.

“No father, Budi has absolutely no objection,” replied Budi.

“Good. It is there you get ready first, later the day will go to his office,” said Mr. Aep while standing and walking towards his room.

“Dad,” call Budi.

Mr. Aep stopped his steps and turned his head towards Budi.

“Does dad approve of our relationship?” ask Budi with anxious expectation.

Mr. Aep just nodded his head.

“Alhamdullilah,” exclaim Budi with a happy face.

“But. Prove that you are serious to their son-in-law and children. Understand?” firmly Mr. Aep.

“Understanding father, thank you,” Budi's face beamed upon hearing his father's reply.

With the spirit of Budi up the stairs to his room, get ready to go to the office. Although Budi as a leader does not mean he can arbitrarily go bad luck. He should set a good example for his subordinates.

******

He stepped into his office. The cleaning service is cleaning.

“Good morning Mr. Budi,” greet the cleaning service.

“Again....,” replied Budi kindly.

Enter the room where he works. Some documents had been piled up on his desk. As usual he turned on the computer first, then turned on the air conditioner. After that, he started

works. He began to open the files that were piled on top and read them one by one.

Tok.dok…

The sound of knocking on the door.

“Sign in,” Reply Budi.

A young man dressed in office boy entered his room.

“Pak Budi want to drink what?” ask office boy.

“Coffee as usual,” replied Budi.

“Good, sir,” said office boy then closed back the door of Budi's workspace.

But soon the door of his room knocked again.

“Sign in,” Excitement Budi.

The open door saw the duo cheriwis Irma and Reva.

“Good morning, Mr. Budi,” greet Irma and Reva.

“Again,” Reply Budi.

“Pak, how is Bu Poppy doing now?” ask Reva.

“It has been a bit light, can already eat a little,” replied Budi.

“Alhamdullilah. You see, yesterday the new time in the hospital, everything that was eaten was spewed back. Until his limp,” bright Reva.

“He is, send the handler home. So you can eat,” said Irma without sin.

“Tuh the proof once Mr. Budi went home all the problems can be solved well,” explained Irma.

Budi just a bell - the head grin heard the babbling of the subordinates.

Take a plastic bag on the table.

“This. Back to work!” budi's Order.

“Assyik.... thank you Mr. Budi,” said Irma and Reva.

Irma took his gift and then came out of the room.

After Irma and Reva leave, Budi continues his work.

His phone rang, the name Bu Poppy on his screen.

“Assalamualaikum, bu.”

“Waalaikumsalam, Mr. Budi.”

“Bu Poppy has breakfast yet?”

“Already, but a little.”

There was a knocking on the door.

“For a while ma'am, someone knocked on the door.”

Keep your phone away from your ears.

“Sign in,” Excitement Budi.

The door opened, and the office boy brought coffee and put it on the table.

“Thank you,” said Budi.

“Sama-sama, sir,” office boy came out of Budi's room and closed Poppy's room.

“Hallo, ma'am,” Budi continues his conversation via mobile phone.

“Tadi who?”

“Tadi office boy, bring coffee my order.”

“It looks like good coffee, huh? I want coffee.”

“Bby, but later if sholeh's child has been born.”

“Iiihhh all kinds of can't. Mr. Budi stingy.”

I heard Poppy's voice upset.

“Kan for the health of mother and baby. Later if the child is born sholeh can try a little coffee.”

“Yes deh.”

Poppy's voice still sounded annoyed.

“Whose mother is in her room? Anyone accompany me?”

“There's Upi. Last night Ilham drove Upi to the hospital. Now Upinya I told you to go home first take clean clothes.”

“So now mommy herself?”

“Iya.”

“I told Reva nemani mom, yes.”

Be concerned.

“Nevent gone, sir. Later if you need anything just call sister.”

“Later if there is any of my phone, yes.”

“Iya. When did you get here?”

“Why miss, yes?”

“Iiihhh ge-er.”

“You brought what food?”

“hhmm what, yes?”

Poppy thought for a moment.

“Mau siomay.”

“Oke, I'll have lunch with siomay. It was a long time ago, yeah. I work first. Later if you do not work pity sholeh child and his mother.”

“Iya, huh. Assalamualaikum,” Poppy hangs up.

“Waalaikumsalam,” replied Budi and hung up.

Continue his work. At eleven o'clock Budi stopped his work. He brought a laptop and some files that he would work on at the hospital to accompany Poppy.

Before going to the hospital, he stopped by to buy siomay at his mother's subscription place. Then go straight to the hospital. While on his way to the hospital his cell phone was embroidered. He ignored the ringing of his cell phone because he was driving. But the phone's ringing doesn't stop. He had to pull over his car and answer the phone.

“Assalamualaikum.”

“Waalaikumsalam. Can you come here sir? There's Kevin here. I'm afraid Tantri will follow here.”

There was a frightened tone from Poppy's voice.

“I'm there now. If Kevin or Tantri is throwing a tantrum, call a nun or make a fuss for the nurse or security to come. My

now on the way to the hospital. Assalamualaikum.”

Continue on and go fast.
