Grasping the Only Temporary (Revised)
#113



After going home from school to treat Febbry, Kian went straight home. Can be underlined now Kian has gone home alone, even Devan is also rarely seen and together with himself.


"Ki, want to go to work again?"


Kian who was wearing his shoes sat on the middle floor of the door, immediately turned to the source of the sound "Yes sis." He said, smiling, "What is the situation with my sister? Is it better?"


"Udah kok Ki. Even though I didn't go to college because of a low-grade fever."


Instantly Kian immediately stopped his activities, standing to see Nari, "Mafin Kian ya sis. Kian does not know the brother is sick and suffering, even though our house is next to each other. I'm sorry I've known about brother for a long time." Kian looked at Nari with sadness, feeling guilty about what happened.


"It's only natural Ki. You know what my room is like. The soundproofing device is very useful. Haha... Don't talk about it anymore."


"But you're in the hospital?" Continue with a face that is still guilty and anxious.


"Jeez, a low-grade fever. Most taking medicine also healed, and now I have good taste, do not need to use to any hospital. Oh yeah btw, you've been going alone for a long time? Why isn't Devan the same? Fighting again, huh?" Intentions to shift the topic so that Kian does not dissolve guilt.


Kian shook his head slowly while smiling, "Why brother? Kangen Devan, huh? Haha..." Temptation with laughter.


"Ngaco aja Ki. It's just strange if you walk alone next to him there is no Devan, there is something less like that. But you guys don't fight anymore, do you?"


"Not really, brother. I want to go alone. Yes, I left first, brother. Later if there needs to be something call Kian aja ya."


"Yes, be careful."


As usual, I'll walk out the alley by myself. Some of the people he met did not forget he said also because he already felt a little familiar with the residents there. Until he arrived at the front stop of the alley, waiting for the bus he used to ride to go to work.


"Where are you going?" Ask someone.


A little surprised when he saw someone standing not far from him. "Lo?!! Why are you here? Nguntit ya lo?"


Not accepting the accusation, he denied. "Gue is not elo, who likes nguntit. I just went through. No need to be a kegeeran."


"Yes already." Cuek Kian's.


"Lo lives here?" He glanced towards Kian.


"So, I looked at you again. Don't ask questions." Kian stared at his cynics.


"Ooh. Where are you going?"


"It's none of your business!" Ketus.


There was no more conversation there, but Kian stayed on guard. Because that person is still beside him. Who was also sitting on the same stop chair as him. Not long after the bus came, Kian immediately got on. He is no exception either.


"Why ride?!" He glanced back because Refan was right behind him.


"So that's me. There are no special bus posts. Public transport bus, so anyone can ride!" An upset refan then precedes Kian who is still on the bus stairs. Kian just remained silent and looked at Refan for a moment, seeming to think strangely of him.


______________


He entered his workplace with enthusiasm. Although a few minutes ago he was upset because Refan seemed to follow him, even though he himself continued to avoid. But he is so uncomfortable with his existence. What adds to the weirdness again, Refan did not extend the matter of that time. Until Kian concluded that he only wanted to heat up Devan's manation. In another thought he was somewhat relieved, just according to him it was a futile thing, because in fact he and Devan were not that close.


"Oh yes Ki, today said brother Arya, do not go home first. You were told to go to her room before you came home."


"Oh that's Sif, yes. Thanks a lot."


Almost all day Kian work, he did not see Devan's nose came to the cafe. He thinks that Devan may be late, but has not come all this time. Not until there, Kian tried to contact and send some messages. But there's no answer there. He recalled the day before, had he ever done anything wrong to Devan? Until Devan doesn't return his message.


"Ki, why dumbass? Are there any more problems?" Sifa approached Kian who was being engrossed with her thoughts.


"Enh, no sif. Where is Em Devan? How not to look."


"Oh from earlier thought Devan anyway. I don't know, it's the same thing as Lo Ki."


"No. Yes, if you don't know. Hehe"


It didn't feel like he was working eight hours. Which means that the working hours are over. He also rushed home. But before returning home, as Sifa said, he had to meet Arya first. Why did the boss call. Even if he asks about Devan, then Kian himself does not know where he is.

"Lake in."


After knocking on the door, and getting permission from inside the room, Kian immediately entered.


"Sifa said, Arya called Kian, right? Why sis?"


"Oh yes Ki, sit down first." His words were followed by Kian. "It's been a month of work, and this is your salary. Congratulations, this is your first salary." Arya handed a long brown envelope to Kian with a friendly smile.


Likewise with Kian, he cannot deny now that he really feels happy. Although the results are not much, he is grateful and proud of his hard work. This was his first time making money from his own sweat, tired? Of course he feels. But when he received the envelope he realized, the results would be nothing compared to the process. Sumringah's face was painted there, "Thank you brother." Take the envelope on the table.


"Yes alike. Oh yeah, Devan didn't come in today. Where's where?" The question that made the smile fade away. "Em, that doesn't know either. It was so easy to call just not active at all." Evidently.


"Oh that. Yeah, it's okay. Lagian Devan always does. I often say there is no news. If you meet later, you can say that he also has a salary to take."


"Yes. Careful."


"Big!" Kian held up his right thumb as he nearly swallowed the door of the room.


--------


Kian down the street, a stop a little far from the cafe makes it have to walk first. That fluffy smile did not fade at all from both of his lips. The feeling of pleasure is endless. Yeah, on the sidelines running his mind breezed buana. Although in fact the time he had only about four months was not up, but Kian continued to try to find money and money. Turning his brain, how the money he got today could be useful longer and provide enough results to pay off his debts.


Calculate the cost he planned using a mobile phone calculator. So focused and unmoved, so unconscious....


Bukh!


He fell down, and the bag was taken by someone else. Well, pickpocket who else if not him. Kian who initially sat down because he was pushed by one of the pickpockets, suddenly immediately got up and tried to chase after him.


"Dumpling!!" Shouted Kian while running.


The streets were in a state of desolation, making him not know who to ask for help to. Plus the two pickpockets were riding a motorcycle, making Kian have to run chasing. Although it was impossible to catch up with them, even as fast as he ran. Even to equalize its path is impossible. Their distance is very far, Kian who is tired choose to stop and just sit on the ground.


Now Kian can only cry bitterly, because the money he just received had been taken by thieves. The money he made, even craved for this one month. His chest felt claustrophobic thinking about it, as if his struggle for a month was in vain. Let alone to open a business or pay off debt, to eat tomorrow he does not know what to do.


"God, what trials have you given. Tired, but Kian also does not want to go home. Hiks... Astagfirullah hal'adzim."


He sat on the sidewalk, bent his legs, and lowered his head to hide the face on both knees. He really felt chaotic, carelessness made him now have to bite his fingers and do not know what else to do. He continued to cry while contemplating his mistake.


Nothing passed by, just quietly greeting with his dark night and the cold air at this time continued to hug the chaotic Kian. He huddled up, giving warmth to himself. The eye that had just released water was now swollen and red. And so is the face.


He decided to walk, but not to go home. Continued to walk through the darkness of the night so silent, but the other side of his brain still felt unsettled. He did not know what to explain to Devan about the money and repayment of the debt, which he now does not hold a penny.


He only still has a mobile phone, but is it enough to pay off the debt with old-fashioned mobile phone sales money that is in his grasp today? It is not as old as it actually is, even the phone is called a touch screen phone. But it was a long time ago. There is no more output from the phone that he has today.


Want to sell? How much? Thought Kian looked at the phone that was in her hand, looking at the black screen that was filled with scratches. He kept muttering and cursing himself. Disappointed, sad, desperate to be one. But he tries not to burden himself. Wh why? Because some pills that he should have taken at a time like this were even carried away by them. He didn't want to faint in the middle of the road. What would happen if he did that until it happened? Maybe for the bad guy he will be rolled into the bushes right then and there.


Until Kian stopped when he saw a clown dancing at a red light. Yes, now Kian has walked further than that place, which drove him to a more crowded place and met a crowd of people.


After the red light changed to a green light, the clown left. Without a second thought he followed the clown. His body just moves along the path of the clown.


The clown continued to walk to a place, which was notobane of a dark and lonely road. He hesitated a little to keep following him, afraid of what he would find at the end of this road, only that he really needed it if he could get it.


It felt like a waiter at the moment, as Refan said. But it was all he tepis and remained focused with the clown who walked with his joy.

"Now boss."


He was silent after receiving the small black bag. Stripped the bag from the outside, twisting and turning it back.


"Why is he so stupid? Presented a good life choose hard!! You stupid woman!! Does he think he can live with a boy who was banished from his own extended family? Hmh!" Furious, gripping firmly the small bag in such a big hand.


"Em, the boss already has a lot of money and enough. Better the money for us alone, after all the nominal is also good, hehehe. Aren't you?" Say one to his other friend.


After his men said that, the gray eyes looked sharply at them. "You want this money?" Ask.


They also hit fast, he rose from the motorcycle seat had one of them.

Such a powerful slap landed on one of the cheeks of the two people. Making their faces slightly stagger due to the strength of the slap obtained.


"Ck!!" The grin looks there. "This will be yours if your task is complete. Keep bothering him until he gives up, lest he get up from this slump. He has to pay a lot for what he does. Make him miserable until he begs to go back home! Understand!!"


The two people who had been slapped, threw a glance at each other after hearing the sentence that was thrown by the man.


He turned to look at the two people who were now standing firmly with red cheeks due to his actions, walking closer to them. Pointing one by one of the two. "If you can't just take care of this one little girl, then be prepared to feel the pain of seeing your family!"


The two of them took another hard sip of saliva, nodding quickly to the words containing the threat. Then go away using his car.


The two people just stared at the car plate which was getting away. Their astonished and strange look was thrown at the black car that was speeding up.


"Well, are there any such people? But you know I do this for my family. But she....?"


"The rich love wealth more than family. I don't understand the same thinking of people."
