Eternal Promises
The Part 23
“Halo, Ma,” greet Darwin.
Darwin was meeting with his employees, suddenly he got an incoming call from Martha, not usually his mother called at work, there must be something important he wanted to talk about.
“Sorry Mama interfered, dear.”
“Nothing, Ma. Tell me what's up?” ask Darwin.
“Mama again in the Mall together with Bik Marni, Mama saw there were people like Fenita, very similar, son. He was with a beautiful woman.”
“Oh, it is indeed Aunt Fenita time, Ma. I forgot to tell Mama, Rose has released Aunt Fenita,” explained Darwin.
Martha was a little surprised to hear that Rose had released Fenita, why did she make such a decision? Thought Martha. But all the thoughts that raged in his head he was quiet, he did not want to bother Darwin for too long.
“Yes, it could be Fenita. Yes, continue your work. Daah .. dear.” Martha ended the call.
This afternoon Darwin had an outside meeting with Haris, but he had not received any reports from Pratiwi, where Haris wanted to meet.
While waiting for Haris to send the location of the meeting, Darwin contacted his best friend Kelvin. It has been a long time since they met.
“Again where?”
“Near your office, I just wanted to call you, you called me first,” Kelvin replied behind the phone.
“Mari meet.”
“Come, I have an hour,” Kelvin said before he closed the call.
Not long after they had met at a Cafe quite close to Darwin's magnificent office. Kelvin was just after meeting with his client, so Darwin called, he told his secretary to go home first.
“How's your wife and son doing?” ask Darwin while sipping a cup of coffee.
“They're good, you yourself how?”
Darwin scooped his face with his hands. “You know what a pregnant woman looks like,”next later.
Kelvin patted Darwin on the shoulder, he chuckled. “You bought a machine that can set your wife's mood.”
“And only there.” Then both of them laughed a little.
For a long time they chatted, various issues they discussed together. That's how things are now, it's rare that they can meet and hang out together like before.
“Sometimes we meet again, yes,” Kelvin said as he stepped towards his car parked by the side of the road.
“Yes, greetings to your wife and child,” Darwin said. Then they split up at the cafe. Darwin immediately slid to where Pratiwi had just shared, Haris was waiting for him there.
•••••••
“Sorry a little late,” Darwin said as soon as he arrived at the seafood restaurant.
“No problem,” said smile. Haris was waiting for Darwin about 20 minutes ago.
Darwin saw before him that he was ready with various kinds of food, coincidentally his meeting this time coincided with lunch hour. Haris had already ordered some kind of cooking for the two of them.
“Let's fill the stomach first, after that we just started meeting,” invite Haris.
“Sorry, Mr. Haris, but I have no taste for this cuisine all,” reject Darwin's subtle.
“Nothing, let's order something else.”
Darwin smiled, he nodded while calling the servant. “White fried rice one, use shrimp, the warehouses are stir-fried first so that the ripening is perfect, yes?” darwin Pinta.
Not long after, Darwin's order arrived. They had lunch together without a word of conversation until the two of them finished the lunch together.
After lunch, they began to discuss one by one about their cooperation projects that have entered the 40 percent stage of development.
So far quite well, the idea that Darwin developed has always been well received by Haris. Darwin was not at all overwhelmed, as if his brilliant idea had never run out.
“To this day I think enough,” said Haris shaking Darwin's hand.
“Yes, if there is something immediately contact our side,” said Darwin.
Bruuk!!
Darwin's file splashed to the floor, he hit a woman.
“I'm sorry,” Darwin said after picking up his files on the floor.
“Nothing, I also apologize.”
The woman gave some of Darwin's sheets which she picked up on the floor, smiling kindly. Then he soon passed leaving Darwin still cleaning the map.
“What's up?” ask Haris.
“It's okay, Sir. Already?”
“Already, Come,” invite Haris.
Darwin immediately returned to the office, Pratiwi waiting for him. There are some files that he should sign immediately.
Darwin's cell phone rang, he couldn't pull out the phone he had in his pocket, his pants were pretty narrow. Darwin pulled over his car to receive a call.
“Lestari .. hello, dear,” greet Darwin.
“Mas, I'm going to mama's house, yes. Ni picked up by Mr. Samsul,” pinta Asmira.
“What event is it, baby?”
“I don't know, Mas. Maybe mama misses Vano,” Asmira said.
“Alright, be careful. I'll pick you up later, yes.”
After the call was over, Darwin immediately slid into the office.
While at Asmira's house, he immediately prepared as soon as Mr. Yun came home with Evano. After lunch and dinner, they leave immediately.
“Pak Yun, I want to go to my in-laws' house for a while, I leave home, yes?”
After getting an answer in the form of a nod from Mr. Yun, Asmira told Mr. Samsul to leave immediately. On the way they joked together, Bu Ida's sense of humor was good enough to shake the stomach of Mr. Samsul.
“Mama is not done with Rose,” said Martha. He was engrossed in watching Marco play with Evano in the backyard.
“Why, Ma?” asmira asked not to understand.
“So Mama met with Fenita at Mall.”
“Oh, the .. pity Aunt Fenita, Ma. Let him breathe free air to enjoy his old age,” Asmira said.
“You're too good for a villain like Fenita,” witty Martha is worried.
“Already, Ma. Hopefully Aunt Fenita has changed, Mama don't worry too much, huh?”
“Mama hope so too, dear. I don't want any more problems in my family. Mama wants to enjoy Mama's old age beautifully.”
Asmira hugged Martha, she knew her in-laws' worries were so great. It was not easy for her to forgive Fenita after what she had done to her, too many wounds that Fenita had inflicted on her heart-in-law.
“Honey,” call Martha gently.
“Iya, Ma.”
“Please promise Mama, no matter what happens to your household, you cannot believe and be affected. Learn from the past experience, strengthen your stance so it is not easy for people to shake the household of you both.”
Asmira was silent at all her in-laws' advice, she forced a smile on her lips.
“Already dong, Ma. I became afraid,” Asmira said.
Martha rubbed Asmira's head, smiling kindly at her daughter-in-law.
“Mama doesn't scare you, baby. Mama just wants you guys to be happy forever. The key is one, patience.”
