Happy Reading's.

El returns to the office to complete the pending work. He was really upset at the moment thinking about the incident earlier this afternoon in the dormitory.
"Hey, just say it!. What's the matter?", said Tamara who nudged El's shoulder.
El breathed a heavy sigh. He needed a moment to calm his mind. "I can ask no?", asked El with a serious face.
"Can. Ask about what?".
"If like love mbak, not sanctioned by both parents mbak girlfriend, how does the current mbak reaction?".
"Hm... If I think for myself, it depends on our partner as well!", replied Tamara.
"I mean mbak?".
"It means this, if our partner wants to fight together in a relationship, maybe I will take the heart of prospective mother and father-in-law. But, if the opposite happened maybe I would raise my hand. It is better to let go than to force our will", replied Tamara wisely.
El was silent, he digested what Tamara had said.

Flashback.
He also looked into Sam's eyes. The eyes that had always been missed by him were always giving warmth but now his eyes had turned into a very cold and stiff person.
"You have to take responsibility for what you did in the hospital for causing a commotion there!", Sam said with hateful eyes.
"What?", did El not believe. "It's not the opposite, yes, I have to hold you accountable for what you do until I'm hospitalized for a few days?" El continued.
"I'm responsible for what I do with you. With medical financing at the hospital. Everything is free!", said Sam in self-defense.
"Ah...!", complained El. He looked straight at Ardi, looking for an answer to Sam's question.
"Yes mbak. Mr. Samuel who paid for treatment at the time of El's hospitalization" answered Ardi casually.
"OKs. It was my fault for not asking the sisters, who financed me. Just calm down, I'll pay for it right now!. What is the total expenditure you spend on me?", asked El sarcas.
"Not much. You need to pay off the hospital financing by the way you stay one week with me!", replied Sam casually.
"What!. I didn't hear wrong?. I live on one roof with you!", complained El regretfully.
"Yes. Easy it!".
"Ha... Hello, sorry yes, we are not the makhrum for one roof with you!. Just so you know, I can still pay off your debt!. So, don't be so cocky as to threaten me, or anything like that. Because, I hate it the most!", that El does not accept.
Sam took out a single sheet containing details of the hospital's expenses. "I'm not threatening you, but I'm justifying what you're accusing me of!" said Sam, handing El a sheet of paper.
"What is this?", asked El annoyed.
"Read it. After you finish reading, please call immediately the number below!", message Sam who immediately left the dorm room.
"Yourf!".
"I'm sorry El, this is all for you!", whispered Ardi who immediately ran after Sam who was far away in his eyes.
"Ih... You crazy guy!", cried El angry.
"Why is he so cold as El's ice?" asked Bella annoyed.
"That's Bel. Maybe his brain was hit too!", replied El annoyed. He sat on his bed opening an envelope Sam had given him.
Bella cleaned up the stuff that was strewn on the floor.
El was stunned to see the cost of care bills while in the hospital. "This serious!", cried El in disbelief. The bill paper fell down below. "What kind of hospital is this, three days on this bill!", angry El. He recalled that at the time of the hospital, Saga asked for hospital fees but the hospital did not notify the cost of treatment. "This must be Ardi's behavior!. You crazy man!", said El with clenched hands.
Bella sees El angry in her bed. He picked up the paper bills that fell on the floor. He saw a lot of bills with a lot of zeros. "It's serious!", Bella said limp.
"Maybe the flower is 100%!", said El annoyed.
"Keep you want to stay on one roof with her?" asked Bella.
"Religion!. Maybe if he hasn't been this short, maybe I'd like to. Because as long as I know Sam, he's not gonna fuck with women. But, somehow after he lost his memory maybe half of his brain disappeared!", El origin said.
Geck... Geck... Geck...
The door sounds really loud.
"Who else?. Why do I want to live quietly there is always something bothering me!", upset El who is still sitting.
"Let me open!" said Bella, who opened the door.
And...
Bella was stunned to see some people standing at the door carrying cleaning tools.
"Who's Bel?", asked El.
Bella still could not believe looking in front of him. It was like I had not heard El's question.
He suspected something was happening in front. He immediately walked to the door. And...
"On whose orders did you come here?", asked El firmly.
"We were instructed by Mr. Samuel to clean the room of the mother of El who had been troublemaking in the mad room!", the servants politely replied.
"Please!. It should be your boss who cleans up and cleans up!", said El annoyed. He let Sam's servants into the room.
"You're serious El?", asked Bella in disbelief.
"It's okay, bell. Let it. I have to go back to the office, my work is still a lot there!", said El who walked to pick up the bag left inside. "Which is clean, I do not want stains or dirt stuck in my room!", El said cynically. He then gives some money to Bella to give to some of Sam's men who clean up. "Please give this tip to them!. Yes, I'm leaving first!", the camel El walked away.
Off Flashback.

"El... El... El...!", call Tamara several times.
El was awakened from his daydream. "Yes, what's wrong?", replied El in a slightly surprised tone.
"That's your phone from earlier ringing!" said Tamara.
El glanced at the bag beside him. Right, the phone rang by displaying a new number on the screen. He took his cell phone, he cradled it to lift it or not.
"New number mbak. Maybe a prankster!", answered El putting his phone back on the table.
Several times El's phone rang incessantly.
Dret... Dret... Dret...
A message entered into his WhatsApp.
"Quick lift!. Otherwise I'll go where you work!". Sam's.
"Who the hell is this?. Disturb the workmen!", upset El after reading the short message. He threw his phone back.
Tamara took El's phone and read the short message. "This must be El's prankster. It doesn't need to be lifted!", Tamara's idea.
El's phone rang again. El immediately grabbed his phone and shifted the red button. His phone was unceasingly ringing. El was upset and finally picked it up.
"How long does it take to lift him!", angry at someone across the street.
"Ups... Why did you call me?. What else is it?", asked El angrily.
"Eh... How the decision, I've told you that I need an answer right now!", so Sam does not want to lose.
"I don't want to. Point. Until whenever I'll pay the hospital's financing bills. Now send me the account number, so I can make the transaction easy!".
"Are you sure you want a transfer?. Do you have that kind of money?", tempt Sam happily. That's El's weakness right now.
"I'll take it all the way through!".
"I don't want to be taken. Just delicious!. I just pay cash directly to the hospital" replied Sam.
"OKs... Ok... I'll transfer by tonight at the latest. If until later tonight I can not transfer, then therefore, I will realize your wishes!", said El firmly.
"OKs. I wait!", replied Sam who instantly turned off unilaterally.
El's body is squeezed. Where would I get that kind of money. Two hundred and fifty million. Oh My God's. He immediately held his head, his head seemed to be about to break thinking about it.
"You why El?", asked Tamara worriedly.
"There's nothing" replied El relaxed.
"If there's a story problem to me, I'll be ready to listen to your grievances".
"Yes mbak. Thank you for your attention Tamara. But, I'm fine!", replied El.
"Yes already. Ma'am to the toilet first huh?", Tamara's camel.
El nodded his head in agreement.
Dret... Dret... Dret...
His phone rang a sign of what message was coming in.
"Let's dinner outside yuk, El?". Sagas.
Did I borrow money from Saga?. He'll be rich, maybe there's more money for me to borrow! inner El doubt.
"Can Brother. Where's the?". El.
"atla Restaurant".
"Ok Brother. I will come straight there. And there's something important I want to say to Brother". El.
"What's important El?". Sagas.
"Later tonight, brother. Not good with a message". El.
"alright. I'll see you tonight". Sagas.

Night Days.
El is ready to go to the restaurant ordered by Kak Saga. He is currently in a taxi. He took a taxi to his destination.
A message came into his phone.
"Where's money?". Sam's.
"Yes. If there is one, I will tell you!". El.
Finally a few minutes to the restaurant meant by Saga. He got off the taxi immediately. He asked the booking server on behalf of Saga. Then a servant let him in and showed him his seat. He thanked the waiter. And sit while playing his cell phone. "Where is Saga?. How come he hasn't come yet?", El looked around the room.
***
On the other hand Saga is busy with files that are piled on his desk. He did not expect that there were still tasks piled up there. He occasionally sees a watch.
Geck... Geck... Geck...
The sound of knocking on the door sounded. Saga immediately told the guest to enter the room.
"Sorry sir, this is from the company of Mr. Djorgi advance his metting today at 8 p.m. What about sir?" said the secretary.
"But?".
"Mr cannot. He will fly to Australia in the middle of the night" the secretary said.
"alright. At least for a moment they will discuss the problem that was constrained at that time. Ok. I'll come" replied Saga.
"Good Sir. Excuse me!", said the secretary politely.
El awaits the arrival of Saga. He looked at the wall clock in the restaurant several times. The needle seemed to spin as fast as lightning. He waited patiently. Surely Kak Saga has traffic jams on the highway thought El. The clock is turning faster, he is still faithfully waiting for the arrival of Saga. He had ordered a few glasses of drinks that had been toileted on the table. He looked once again at the wall clock, the clock was already showing the short hand at 11pm. He immediately left the restaurant.
A few minutes later Saga entered the restaurant. His breathing was in a hurry to catch up with time. Blank. No visitors came except for a pair of lovebirds who were still sitting opposite there.
El in the cab. He saw the lights that illuminated the world so bright. Is this my destiny, a destiny that will always be overshadowed by Samuel Nata Wijaya?.
