Fives

part 19. dinner

in the evening, at 10:15 the sound of a car engine was heard in the afterglow of the gate that opened. wide footsteps now towards the main door of this house.

the pace was quite clear aware of Rima from her daydream. Dinner was on the table, Rima is currently only cleaning what needs to be cleaned.

Rafa has been sleeping from two hours ago.The child seems bored.usually he will play with his friend or help Rima make up his wares.was also he had time to help Rima beberes home, he was also, but not allowed for fear later Rafa ruined something.

the door opened, Rega with all his fatigue lay down on the sofa by gently massaging his forehead.The shirt and suit that the man was wearing looked very tangled.

this afternoon Rega had a sudden meeting, which initially would be relaxing at home even busy for a full day. There are some problems in his office, and must be resolved immediately today as well.

now Rega can breathe a sigh of relief, Trouble is settled, but the tired physical mind is still faithfully following him.

tuk

"teh sir." Rima lowered her head in a soft voice.

Rega opened his eyes.he just remembered there was someone else in this house.The house was also neater and cleaner than usual. Rega leaned his back on the sofa then opened his suit and just put it next to the sofa

"sit down," he said.

"me?" tanya Rima made sure.

"yes, we need to talk" said Rega and Rima nodded sitting across the sofa.

"you don't know me yet?" ask Rega, her eyes squeaking.

to be honest Rima was very nervous. his voice that seemed hoarse bass increasingly make Rima deg-degan.not because what, he was just nervous because his voice was very different when Rima first heard it. or is it the Rima alone that is not so attentive?.

"yet, sir"

" if anyone asks me out there. they'll call me Rendra. and especially at home, my name is Rega. got it?" ask Rega and Rima nodded in understanding.

"one more"

"don't call me sir. I'm young, maybe we're the same age, and for this morning I'm sorry. I feel so old when called that."

"well tu-emm..sister?" great-grandson Rima hesitated.

"it's better." Rega held a cup of Rima's warm tea and sipped it a little. "how old are you?"

Rima gelagapan. she forgot how old, she was pregnant Rafa about the age of 17 years later gave birth to him and took care of him for 3 years, because Rafa's age is now 3 years..

" twenty years." he answered slowly.

Rega nodded her head then scowled her for a moment. "I am a year older than you."

again Rima nodded.

"your job is not heavy.just a few houses, cooking and watering plants that are here. To clean the house you have to clean all the rooms except my room. no one gets into my room whoever it is!. Okay?"

"understand"

how much?. oh come on, Rima has been very lucky to get a decent place to stay, but he also needs money to buy Rafa's wishes. if answered this way later considered to be expensive, then he will have to pay for it, if it is answered, what if it is not in the salary?.

"it's up to my sister.. I'm lucky to be able to sleep safely" lohhh your mouth why Rima?. in your mind you have managed to find a nominal that is suitable and ready to be said. but another word came out.

"later think again.what are you cooking tonight?" ask Rega. he stepped closer to the dining table while rolling up his shirt arms. his stomach feels rumbling because it has not had lunch, fortunately this morning he had breakfast rice so it can still be held.

seeing her master heading towards the dining table, Rima rushed to help to prepare the cutlery as well as pour water into the glass.

"i'm sorry to go back" Rima wanted to rest, as well as see Rafa sleeping properly or not. But, a voice stopped her steps.

"sit down and feed me"

Rima was surprised to hear it.

what?. isn't it possible for this maid size.a maid with her male employer to sit and eat at the same table? that's right!

"didn't you hear it?" ask Rega flat.

"sorry but-"

"nothing but. My order you must follow while it's a positive activity" anyways what's hard to stay sitting and waiting for him to finish dinner, thought Rega.

"but I'm"

"i only ask you to accompany me to a meal, not to accompany me to sleep. sit down!" his orders without any rejection.

finally Rima relented.he sat down next to Rega.

"give me some rice!" Rega continued to ask Rima to take this and that. until now Rima was sitting while looking down, waiting for her master to finish dinner.

Rega had forced her to eat with him.But Rima loudly refused, her stomach was full, this afternoon Rima had eaten with Rafa.

"tomorrow you have to wait for me to come home first.especially dinner, you have to wait for me. then you can eat" he said firmly.

after everything was done Rima walked to her room and also Rafa. finished with the activity of cleaning the dining table and washing some dishes, Rima was finally able to lay down her body next to Rafa who was asleep.

"later mamah must be in the same salary Mr. Rega eh brother Rega means. Rafa wants what? later if mamah can buy in sya Allah mamah buyan. the rest of the money we save for jengukin grandma same grandpa ya. grandma surely seneng can meet this handsome grandson." Rima rubbed her tears that slid freely soaking into those tapered cheeks.

looking at his son is sad. longing for his mother and father is very big. are they healthy there?. Hopefully they will forgive him and you accept him back.

"later if Rafa is big, do not ever damage women at all yes dear" he advised while stroking the cheek of Rafa and rubbing the closed eyes smooth.

"the woman is weak, but there are times when the woman can also become strong due to the encouragement of events that make her unwillingly and ready not to be ready she has to go through it."

"you boys born from a mama's womb should be able to respect women. don't be like your father.mamah don't want Rafa like him." Rima swiped Rafa's hair that started long.

"although Rafa was born from a man who could not appreciate women.mamah hope rafa is not like that, son" many people say the fruit fell not far from the tree, hopefully Rafa will never do the same thing that his father did to Rima.

"pardon mamah also, can not make Rafa happy.may the affection that mamah give enough to replace the father figure in Rafa's life" said Rima Lirih, whispering right in Rafa's ear. Rima kissed Rafa's forehead at a glance then hugged him tightly "good night, good dream huh"
