Fazila Tipan From Heaven

One Desk

As I promised Mama before, tomorrow the elders of the Wijaya family members will meet the Saliha woman who became the mother of my sweet daughter. Really, since the morning my chest just kept pounding, tight. I imagined the harsh words that my sweet daughter's mother would say, the harsh words that would make Mama slump.

Mother is stupid! Why did he ask me to swear by his life? He should have let me meet the lady Saliha himself. Whether he kills me or throws me off the twenty-fifth floor of my office building, what do you care? I muttered to myself. I looked at my face in the mirror, I looked so messy. Not my messy appearance, but my lackluster face like the one who will be gone tomorrow morning.

Meanwhile in a different place, the plane carrying Araf had just landed at Soekarno-Hatta Airport. Since far away from Fazila and watching the appearance of the sweet child on Television Araf increasingly misses him, this time his longing can not be restrained anymore, he said, he prefers to fly to Jakarta even if only for one hour.

"Will he scold me? I suddenly came and surprised him, I thought I was a little outrageous! Do I really miss Fazila? Or do I miss her mother so much?" Araf spoke to himself in the passenger seat, the Taxi driver who heard Araf speak to himself was seen frowning.

"If I meet him, what should I say? I can't possibly say I came to see her to give her her favorite flowers, that's a terrible excuse!" Araf muttered to himself again while scratching his non-itchy head.

"I also couldn't possibly say I missed him so much, that's why I came to see him! That's also a terrible excuse!" Araf sighed again.

Araf continued to think, unfortunately he could not find the right reason, the reason he would use when meeting the dream girl who had always enlivened his night dreams.

"If I meet him and say I miss him so much, the boro-boro can smile I will definitely get a slap. He slapped me once, and I don't want that bad event to happen again." This time Araf rubbed his right cheek that had once gotten a slap. He is still traumatized by the incident.

"Sir, don't mind me! I'm not crazy! I'm just thinking a lot." Araf explained to the taxi driver who kept shaking his head at his strange behavior.

A second later Araf was again occupied with his long thoughts, before he had never felt this much anxiety, anxiety that could make his chest pound very fast. And before, he had never missed any woman of this size, a longing that could steal the peace every night.

"alright. There's only one way I can think of, a way that won't make me look like a loser and I'm calm." Said Araf in a soft voice, a speech that only he himself could hear. He does not care anymore with the taxi driver who continues to shake his head considers it insane.

An hour later Araf chose to go down in front of his best friend's hotel, he did not want to go home, if he was determined to do that, he would not survive his mother's question, he said, the question that will intimidate him until the smallest secret he hides in his heart is revealed.

...***...

The time was 19:00 when I got to the restaurant. Tonight I deliberately look relaxed, even flip-flops that I use since morning I do not replace with new sandals, I am a man with one child, he said, I don't think my good looks will be disturbed just because of the flip-flops I use.

"Hopefully nice boss night!" Sapa Manager Hotel, I thought no one would recognize me when I was just looking casual, and this was the first time I appeared without wearing a suit in public.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Repasku.

"Does the boss need anything? Or the boss wants to try a new menu developed by the chef we recruited this morning? We'll get everything ready for the boss." Said the Manager standing in front of me. I haven't had time to answer the manager's remark My concentration is divided as the noise comes from the table twelve.

All this time I rarely enjoyed my free time outside the office, which is why I knew nothing about the restaurant except what the managers reported every month.

"What's there?"

"Sometimes things like that happen. There were a few customers who came, they were overcomplicated until we finally freed them from the fees they had to pay." Adu Manager that's to me.

Honestly, I was annoyed to hear that. During this time I never experienced anything annoying, because I was only faced with a pile of reports and E-mail from three five-star Hotels and several Resorts on the island of Bali and Java.

"I'll take care of everything." Said the female Manager standing in front of me while bowing in salute.

"No! You stay here, I'll take care of everything. No one recognizes me but you then let me handle it calmly without any commotion." I reply as I step closer to the table that is the source of the commotion.

"I'm sorry to our employees, if you want to protest you can say anything to me. We are ready to take all your complaints!" I said in a soft tone of voice, I hope there is no more commotion because right now all eyes are staring at us with curious gazes. Some also make snide comments. The comments that made my ears feel hot.

"This is the worst restaurant I've ever been to. Since you said you could handle my grievance then accept this." Said one of the young women standing in front of me with a loud speech. Seconds later....

Brusss!

A glass of cold water landed right on my face, the young lady was about to flush the maid standing in front of me, but I quickly pulled her arm so that the water did not hit her but hit me.

I took a rough breath, I was really upset. I looked at the face of the young lady standing in front of me with a sharp look. His face looks familiar, I try to remember and find that he is a new model who will star in the brand that will be launched the company next week, Bobby signed a contract with the model this morning.

"All right, there's nothing more we need to talk about. All the food you order does not need to be removed. And another one..."

The two women standing in front of me gave a rough sigh, I guess they started to recognize me. Even the face of the young lady that was watering on my face looked pale.

"The cooperation contract you signed this morning I canceled. Our company doesn't want to get involved with a rough model." I said in a loud voice, after which I chose to leave the Restaurant without caring for the call of the two girls.

Alan... Alan! You're so cruel. I muttered as I walked towards the dressing room.

Ten minutes later I was done changing clothes. I feel empty, I miss my sweet daughter so much. Somehow so that I can contact my sweet daughter. I know Umminya's cell phone number, unfortunately I didn't have that much guts to call my daughter before I met and apologized directly to that saliha woman.

Mama, Mommy... Why do you ask me to swear on your behalf not to see the mother of my sweet daughter before you meet her, what are your plans? I started muttering to myself in silence, not knowing what to do. I have everything but why am I always empty friends? Even when I knew I had a little Angel, I was getting emptier because all day long I missed her so much and couldn't meet her.

Dretit.Dret.Dreep.

The thought of my sweet daughter was torn apart by the vibrations from the phone I put in my pocket.

Where are you?

I asked you to meet me at your Hotel Restaurant! But, until now you haven't come yet?

Should I give you the award of best friend?

You should come.

If you don't come I'll be gone! Please!!!!

Please come, come!!!

Hhmmmm. I started to sigh violently, reading Araf's message gave me goosebumps. I'm sure he has big plans and he didn't tell me about his plans. I hope it's not a big thing, a big thing that will surprise me.

A second later I saw the reflection of my face in the mirror. Now I look like Alan Wijaya as always, Glamour, Cold and Authoritative. Missing is already the simple impression I tried to display earlier. The flip-flops I was wearing from home were incompatible with the expensive suit attached to my body, I was forced to wear shoes. Now my look was perfect, and I was ready to meet Araf at the Hotel Restaurant on the second floor.

"I'm sorry for asking you to meet here. I wanted to talk alone in a quiet place. Unfortunately, I know you very well. You wouldn't like it if we were just the two of you, so I chose this place as our meeting ground." Araf said in a soft voice.

Basic suck! He met a girl and forced me to accompany him! Does that make any sense? One more... The arena? He thinks this is a horse race! I didn't know you were so stupid. I muttered to myself, hearing Araf's words made me feel amused.

"At the same time we won't be alone! I've asked my best friend to accompany us here!" Connect Araf while showing off a smile. Not a word came out of the girl sitting behind me. It seems she's a nice girl, she's not dressed as sexy as the girls Araf used to date.

"Hi you've come!" Araf greeted me while raising his hand. The woman sitting in front of Araf turned to me. How surprised I was to see the figure sitting in front of Araf.

Instantly, my entire body felt limp, the gaze of those eyes still looked the same. The anger and hate mix into one. Then, how do I deal with that graceful figure while in front of me?

Ma's. Pa? Where did you put me? Lookie? Destiny took me where! I was close to him. What would Araf think of me if he knew who I was and who the graceful figure before us was! I muttered as I walked slowly towards the table Araf was sitting on. My chest is pounding faster. I feel like my heart is going to jump out.

Lordy! Why am I stuck here? We're gonna sit down at a table? Me and my daughter's mother! I never imagined this even in a dream. In fact, araf did not remove the smile from his lips. It was as if the world was filled with smiles only!

I sat right next to Araf. I think only Araf is happy right now. My tongue was stiff, I couldn't talk to him even though we were sitting at a table. Every now and then I look at that graceful face, he looks angry, but he restrains in honor of Araf sitting with us.
