Good morning Lita, my solder

Koh Benny woke me up, the sun began to scatter its rays from the ventilation gap, “Mam, the dawn was too late. I'll go home first!” 

“Kok just woke up now anyway!” I stood straight up as koh Benny left the room.

“You slept like a fainting person, the sound alarm from earlier also did not wake up. Oh yeah, thanks for the sleep ride. Assalamualaikum,” koh Benny out of mess and go straight away.

Until the field turns out there is not one of my men, maybe I have been too late coming here, they must be warming up around the headquarters. On the sidelines I warmed up myself and opened the phone. Some messages come in because from last night it hasn't been opened at all.

There are so many messages from Resti's mother-in-law, still with her slanderous words yesterday. I forwarded the message to Resti.

Shortly a phone call from Resti came in, “halo,” I answered it.

“Mas, who was that message from?” ask Resti.

“Your parents, please finish. Don't involve me anymore,” I replied lazily.

“Do not take heart, Mas, ignored only, blocked also can,” Resti gives advice.

“That's my business. Your business is to solve that problem!” i'm firm.

“Ih, very bad anyway. If you say that, do not have to be too responded to Mas! I used to face my mom. Mami is like that, later also diem kok!” resti said casually.

“Can't, you immediately solve this problem by yourself, because this problem is very disturbing me!” 

“Yes, Mas Imam block that number!”

“Blocking the number is easy, if he suddenly comes here again, how about? I don't want that to happen again. Tell your in-laws that you didn't sell the house. Finish the business.”

“But the house is mine, I am free to do anything to everything I have.”

“Can't do that, in Irvan's legacy, there are some of his parents. If you want to sell it, you have to negotiate first. Can't be one-sided so, let alone me be the target of your mistake.”

“Emang wrong me what is Mas?”

“From here you don't understand what I just explained?”

“Gak knows!”

I held my breath, stubbornly Resti.

“Mas Priest,”

“True your in-laws, don't let him bother me again!”

“Iya, but please block that number also yes!”

“I will not block that number, because with that I can monitor the extent to which you complete the affairs of the house with your in-laws! Clear?”

“Kok that anyway?”

“Rather than you spend time chatting with me, you better solve this problem with your in-laws!”

“Ya has closed the phone if you do not want to hear Resti sound again!”

Click, I immediately hang up Resti's phone call.

‘Why be killed?’ Resti sent me a message, that he allowed me to hang up, weird. I ignored his message and prepared to resume training, my troops had already begun to enter the field.

During the break, I opened my phone again. Koh Benny made several voice calls to my number, and some messages asking me to answer his phone calls, must have something to do with Resti and his in-laws.

‘Sorry it was training, what's up?’ I sent that message to koh Benny. Koh Benny called back.

“Mam, are you Resti?” ask koh Benny.

“Ngapain? Nothing, why?” I asked back.

“Say you were angry with him,” accuse koh Benny.

“What's my reason for getting mad at him?” 

“You if asked back to ask the question anyway, actually what happened earlier?”

“I just ask him to solve his problem with his in-laws without involving me, that's it!”

“Kok him to cry?”

“Masa? just called not crying at all!”

“You talked to him too loudly, so the effect is that you upset him. When talking to the woman who is delicate, the heart of the woman is soft, yelled yes must cry.”

“The drama is so, by the way I do not cry, by the way Benny cried. Ask to protect him, work immediately!”

“Yes I do not accept if you speak rudely with him.”

“Why are you laughing?”

“The other person in love is weird, doesn't know logic. Who's wrong, who's to blame.”

“Already, now you apologize to him!”

“APologizing is easy, the problem is that he has not finished the business he and his in-laws involved me!”

“Means you don't interfere in people's kitchen affairs.”

“Hadeh, I think there are a lot of misunderstandings here.”

“Where should the man apologize first though not wrong.”

“Koh, I think we should solve this problem. I don't want to be accused of things that are not real.”

“Yes already, you intersect Resti here, we meet in my shop only!”

“Do not want, if I am told to come by myself, I want. But if both are there with Resti, I raise my hand.”

“Sip, you really. Later in the afternoon we meet aja deket your office let Rest not distance.”

“Ya, set aja!”

At about sixteen o'clock, I set foot in Takopi cafe in Perak, not far from the headquarters. I combed the location until I found a pair of people who were joking, going forward what's back, very lazy if it becomes a mosquito repellent continuously.

“Mam,” shouted koh Benny from afar.

Resti looks beautiful with a pink tutu dress half calf and blue ribbon bando, in line with his sneakers are also blue. When I was about to sit down, Resti called someone and stood up as if looking for someone.

“Sit, Mam. What would you like to order a drink?” ask koh Benny.

“Espresso,” answered.

Resti then came with her mother-in-law and invited me and koh Benny to shake hands.

“Mi, introduce this koh Benny,” said Resti. My mother-in-law researched both of us. I was just wearing dark grey chinos and a plain black t-shirt, in stark contrast to koh Benny who wore a full suit.

“Mi, Resti apologize. Resti not so sell the house.” I who was sipping coffee immediately stopped, it was easy to say.

“From yesterday did Mami also have said, never sell property belonging to Irvan, Mami does not agree.”

“Iya, Mi. Here Resti wants to straighten that out.”

“If you want to say that, why should there be both of them?” resti's in-laws pointed at me and koh Benny. 

“So Gini Te, previously Resti told me, that he did not dare to stay at home itself. Too many memories with Angga that make him always sad. Well, from there Resti intends to sell the house, fearing Angga's thoughts continue. But since Auntie forbade selling the house, I tried to persuade Resti not to sell the house. I hope Auntie will forgive Resti's khilafnya yesterday,” koh Benny spoke up.

“Who are you?” ask Resti.

“I'm his friend Resti. From now on please do not involve the Imam in Resti's business. Because the Imam does not know much about Resti,” replied koh Benny firmly.

“You ... like we ever met ya?” in-laws Resti was curious.

“Maybe! Yesterday I had a diamond exhibition at JW Marriot. Is Aunt coming there?” koh Benny said.

“Oh yes, yesterday I was invited by Stefany to see the diamond exhibition. Then we've met ya! You work there too?” ask in-laws Resti began to be amazed.

“I organizer show!” answer koh Benny.

“This is one of the rings that yesterday exhibited there yesterday,” Resti shows a tiny ring that is lined with precious stones on his ring finger.

I who heard the chatter can only scratch ears that do not itch.

“You're engaged huh?” guess Resti's in-laws.

“Gak,” replied Resti and koh Benny simultaneously, Resti hid his right hand under the table.

“Best wishes only Te,” koh Benny gives his smile to Resti's in-laws. 

“Ah, of course it is. As a parent, Aunty must always pray for the best for Resti. Oh yes, aunt want also order kayak ring has Resti,” in-laws Resti patted koh Benny's hand.

“Have sold out Aunty, but can still pre order anyway. To the store!” koh Benny rolled up his sleeves to reveal a rolex clock that might cost tens or even hundreds of millions, a missqueen citizen like me was quite a loyal listener.

“Where's the photo?” 

Koh Benny issued a business card with the address of a jewelry store owned by koh Benny.

“Besok Aunty play there ya!”

“Please, I will be happy to provide the best service for all consumers.”

“Okay deh, then Aunty go home first ya.” Resti's in-laws invited koh Benny to shake hands with a smile, while with me just shaking hands without glancing at all.

“Remember Resti, guard the house, lest it fall into the hands of the poor!” said Resti's in-laws while cupika cupiki with her daughter-in-law and then sauntered away.

After Resti's in-laws left the place, the two men immediately laughed out loud, I don't know what had been planned must have managed to get the man to his knees. Then Resti took off the ring that was used and returned it to koh Benny. Koh Benny took out the ring box from his pocket.

“Only dipinjemin Mam, don't you think this is real!” koh Benny said while keeping the diamond ring in the box and then put it back in his pocket.
