Chapter 42 Signs
"Lohs.. Ca, when's it coming?"
Dea walked into the house and found her sister-in-law sitting watching TV in the living room.
"Just this morning brother, there's business on campus, tomorrow back again." Caca walked up to him and hugged him. "Where's Azka, brother?"
"Bang Azka is still in the office, her job is still a lot, so I went home with the driver. Brother up first yeah."
Caca nodded then continued the show.
Dea stepped up the stairs to her room. I don't know why he's been feeling weak these past few days.
Actually Dea wanted to spend her time in the room, but because there was Caca who came home, made her cancel her plan.
Caca is currently pursuing a year-long student exchange program in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The day after their wedding reception, Caca left for Kuala Lumpur.
Mother Aya and Father Arga still survive in Korea because Andini's oma is sick. Dea and Azka have not been able to visit Oma Andini due to the time-consuming business of the office.
Dea was happy, at least tonight there was Caca accompanying her at home. Because I can be sure Azka will be home late tonight.
Tok tok!
Dea knocked on Caca's door after she finished her maghrib prayer.
Caca then appears still wearing his face.
"Yes, brother."
"Let's eat together, mbak Sari already ready your favorite food." Dea whispers sparkle because Caca's favorite food is her favorite food as well.
"Every sister-in-law, I trim the prayer equipment first."
"Okay, sister wait downstairs."
"Where are you, no sign yet?" Ask Caca while they're eating.
"Signs?" Dea scrunched her forehead. "What's the sign, Ca?" Dea asked not understanding.
"That's my sister, Caca's niece-to-be. Any sign yet?" Caca explained.
"Ooooo..." Dea just rounded her mouth to understand Caca's intentions. He just shook his head and continued to chew his food.
Wait up! Dea stopped her chewing, she was thinking, trying to remember something.
"It's been almost 2 months I haven't had my period," Dea's eyes popped. "Or not-don't you???" Dea shook her head then resumed eating.
"And Caca can't wait to have a bang."
Dea smiled, "boy sono, let's have a baby of your own, more afdhol!" Dea mellowing.
"No single mother has proposed to me for her handsome son, sis."
They both chuckle.
"Well, there it is, brother. Mother and child both do not want to be kilaf, but I have opened the door of the heart 25 hours a day, deliberately over an hour to get stuck or stuck in the tree that."
again they both laughed at Caca's absurd answer.
"You're Ca, are monkeys stuck in all trees?" Dea shook her head.
"Oh yes Brother, tomorrow brother can not anterin me to the airport, but we mutter-muter first in the mall?" Tanya Caca was enthusiastic.
Seeing Caca's sparkling face, Dea did not have the heart to refuse, any part of his work for tomorrow he could delegate to another planner.
"Mmmm.. You can, you can!" dea answered. "what's going on in the mall?"
"Why not, sister, Caca just want to walk together with sister, after all we have not been mall. Kangen the same pempek Pak Beard in the corner of the foodcourt in mall A."
"Yes, I'll let you know the same as Azka. The important thing before bang Azka to the office, you say goodbye to him."
"Yes, ready brother-in-law. How long is Azka in the office?" Caca pursed his lips.
"It works a lot, Ca. This is aja sick ora but bang Azka has not been able to go there looking because the work here can not be left." Dea tried to understand their busy condition in the office at this time.
*****
Azka is currently conducting an online meeting with PT representatives. KURAWA STEEL, one of the largest steel companies in Indonesia to cooperate where Azka wants to make the company become their partner in the procurement of steel used in the ship production process.
During this time, the steel that BM Shipyard uses is all imported, besides because the price is cheaper, the cooperation path is also smooth without any intrigue and tendency from certain parties.
Azka wants to break through the dilapidated system that is ingrained in all state-owned enterprises. There were too many beggars and tie thieves leading there. How will state companies survive and stand strong if their existence is only to be used as a dairy cow for them?
At a time when the company's finances are bleeding, the higher-ups of this company can still live with the wealth. They are relaxed, after all the state will not stay silent, the state will certainly inject fresh funds into the company if there are financial problems there. So they are relaxing kayaking on the beach, want bankrupt companies or not, not their business, their business is just how to add to the coffers of the mountains of his property.
The delusion of such people, who continue to pursue the world, they are like people who drink sea water, the more they drink it, the more it will increase its thirst until it finally kills him.
Greedy man!!!
They are the ones who never feel full. Even after he could not stop devouring the earth, he was still afraid that he would die of hunger tomorrow.
When asked, do they never feel enough? Is his hunger never satisfied? Is his thirst never extinguished?
Then they will answer, "Yes, I am satisfied. I'm tired of eating and drinking, too, but I'm afraid that tomorrow there will be no more earth to eat and oceans to drink."
It's amazing, isn't it???
People without shame and self-respect. Honored when in fact they are the most despicable human beings in the world.
Azka sighed harshly. It is fitting that his father never collaborated with the company, even though his father was one of the people who prioritized using local products rather than foreign products. Ribet, too much to ask for a fee, even though Azka knows how much the margin of production costs.
He stopped his meeting because it was late and immediately prepared to go home.
He did not want Dea to wait for him too long, but he also felt too long for his beloved wife, even though only a few hours ago Dea was still in the office, but now Azka was already feeling tormented because she did not see Dea's face.
Azka was also a little worried about the condition of Dea which some days looks weak. He wanted to make sure Dea was always okay with him. Azka had taken her to the Hospital several times, but Dea continued to refuse. Reason's fatigue. And that makes sense, given the incredibly hectic work in the office and also coupled with their hot, energy-intensive activities.
