It was almost dusk, when Kalila arrived at Khalid's residence. This was the first time for him to set foot in Khalid's residence. The man and his family have just moved house a year ago.
Buying a house that is not too far from the office of Adi Putra Group, Khalid did it deliberately. The man designed everything. His sister had to work in one of the largest property companies in Indonesia. Until Kalila does not need to travel far when working there.
Everything has been designed very nicely by Khalid. Although he works in Jakarta, the man prefers to buy a house in the city of Bogor. All he did for the happiness of his beloved sister— according to himself.
“Nah Lila, this is your room. Just next to Nissa's room,” Khalid said. Kalila stared in amazement at the room prepared by her elder sister. The room really looks so comfortable. Decorated with its favorite lavender color, the room is even equipped with air conditioner and smart tv measuring thirty-two inches hanging on the room wall.
The nuances of the lavender-colored room made Kalila instantly feel comfortable. Even the room smells of lavender. Kalila immediately threw her body onto the bed, sitting on the edge of the bed.
“How? you likey? Deliberately Brother painted it with your favorite color,” asked Khalid. That man should never have asked again. Because it seems obvious that Kalila really likes her new room. The room he would occupy since today.
Kalila nodded quickly, “like once, Bang. I still remember Lila loved lavender.”
“Lavender? Purple you mean?”
“Beda bang. This is lavender, not purple. But yes, lavender is a purple derivative anyway. The child is purple,” explained Kalila.
“Ah .. whatever. The clear color is purple,” cebik Khalid. The man did not want to bother about the color and offspring.
“If I don't give any color suggestions, this brother of yours will paint this room with lilac,” exclaimed Feni who had just attended there, after finishing bathing Nissa— his eldest son.
“Luck is not lilac. I don't really like lilacs, you know Fen?” Feni nodded her head. Of course he knew very well, what kind of purple color did Kalila like. The friendship that has been established since they were teenagers, certainly makes Feni and Kalila understand each other's likes.
“Yes whatever you want purple, want lavender or what was it, lilac? The important thing is that you like this room, right?” Kalila nodded quickly, the girl even smiled sumringah. How not, besides being decorated with her favorite colors and ornaments, this room is equipped with a television. The girl can relax 24 hours in the room. Kalila has even made plans to watch many movies and drama series.
Kalila's smile continued to grow. There are a lot of new dramas to watch.
Ms. Alinah was also relieved. It seems his worries will not come true. Khalid really gave comfort to his beloved sister— so Bu Alinah thought. The woman, who now had the granddaughter, sat down next to Kalila.
“Good, your room, La. There is also television,” said Bu Alinah. Kalila turned her head, looking at the mother who was now beside her. “Iya, Mak,” replied the girl. Kalila hugged Alinah. “Mamak stay here only, with Lila,” the door.
Ms. Alinah just smiled and gently stroked her youngest child's hair.
“Iya Mak, stay here only. Rav is also an adult. Time cannot take care of itself. If here right, Mamak can play with grandchildren later,” said Khalid. Again Ms. Alinah just showed a smile. The middle-aged woman, it is impossible to leave Kairav alone in the city of Medan, while she gathered with her three children and grandchildren.
“The boy, should have been independent. Time still want to be taken care of by parents!”
For some reason, since Kalila did not graduate to a state college, Khalid and Kairav's relationship was a little tenuous. Khalid considers Kairav to have grown into a dissident man because he has always opposed any decision Khalid made.
While Kairav, considering Khalid, the longer the more authoritarian. Especially since the eldest brother worked at the Ministry of Environment. Living well, and financing the education of his two younger siblings, making Khalid feel entitled to determine the path of life of his sisters— so Kairav thought.
They don't even communicate at all. If Khalid makes a video call with his mother, Kairav always stays away. But the man will join, if on the screen of Bu Alinah's phone, featuring the figure of Nissa— his nephew.
Kairav even often watched funny videos of Nissa on the social media page owned by Feni— her sister-in-law.
***
The first night of living in the city of Bogor, makes Kalila fret. The cursory room seemed comfortable, could not make him sleep well tonight. Even the video call from Dimas, before he went to sleep earlier, was unable to dispel the anxiety in his heart. Moreover, the presence of Bu Alinah there, making Kalila not free to chat with Dimas.
There was so much going through Kalila's mind. Is he able to, enter the company as grand as Adi Putra Group? If he was accepted into the company, would Ibrahim be happy? Would Ibrahim's family like him, or just look at him one eye, because he was just a regular employee at the company?
If Kalila does not manage to escape being an employee of the Adi Putra Group, will Khalid come back to seek him out for embarrassment? Will he be returned to the city of Medan, if not managed to become an employee in the company owned by the Ibrahim family?
There were a lot of questions on the girl's mind. Kalila had already prepared the worst-case scenario of those questions. Kalila had prepared himself, if the family of Abraham did not accept his condition. Kalila would stay by the man's side if Ibrahim fought for him as well.
Kalila is also ready, will every mockery thrown by Khalid, if he does not graduate to become an employee of Adi Putra Group. Kalila was also ready, back to Medan.
Looking at the clock stuck to the wall of her room, Kalila let out a heavy sigh. Time has shown at 03:00 in the morning. However, the girl was still unable to fall asleep. From then on, Kalila continued to yawn. The girl was still awake until dawn.
