Arfan was unceasingly humming cheerfully in the car. The child was again happy to be invited back for a walk by his brother. After last week he was invited to enjoy the outbound, now his brother took him to Surabaya.
In Arfan's mind, Andi will take him to the Surabaya Zoo, or maybe the Submarine Monument in Surabaya. The boy was eager to visit both places. Arfan had once visited Surabaya Zoo. But that was the time of her TK.
Arfan doesn't remember that much. He might forget to ever go there, if not a photo of himself and his Kindergarten friends against the background of an elephant cage. Arfan would love to return to visit there.
“Kak, are we going to KBS? Or are we going to Monkasel?” Tanya Arfan was so enthusiastic.
Andi who was behind the wheel just shook his head. “We won't be there for now.”
“Yes, why not go there anyway. Do I want to go there?” Arfan was a little disappointed to hear Andi's reply. He thought his brother would take him there. Apparently not.
“Kan I said if for now we are not there, it does not mean next time we will not go there.”
“Then where are we now?” Ask Amira curious. Every time you ask Andi will always say look later.
“Look at it later. When you arrive you will also know.” Answer Andi.
See right? Andi kept that a secret. This made Amira even more curious. Despite asking how many times, still her brother would give the same answer. Instead of being annoyed by herself, Amira chose silence in the end.
Not long after, Andi arrived at his apartment. He promised Amira to take a shower and change her clothes. Since they didn't stop by the house, it was obvious Andi brought them here.
When he opened the door of his apartment, Andi heard a noise inside. There he saw Sekar, who he hired to clean his apartment there. Sitting on the sofa was Mahayu, her son, and next to the girl, there was a baby boy who was sound asleep.
“Eh, Mas Andi dateng.” Said Sekar aware of the existence of Andi. The mother of two children also stopped her cleaning activities.
“Oh Bu Sekar is cleaning anyway. Mom is not papa. This is me and my brothers here just want to shower and change clothes aja.” Answer Andi.
While waiting for his two sisters to take a bath, Andi accompanied Mahayu to watch TV. Andi then remembered his luxurious house. He hasn't seen the gift house. And again, the house must be dirty because no one cleaned.
“Bu Sekar, where is his mother now? Do you have your own home?” Andi asked suddenly.
“Still contracted Mas. Home prices are now expensive. People like me can afford to buy my own house. I want to have my own house, but my salary and the late husband is not much. Make daily needs just mediocre. Especially if you make a home credit.”
“What if Bu Sekar lives in my house? I mean, I have another house in Surabaya. There are plenty of empty rooms. My family does not live in Surabaya. I can work to clean my house and live there. So, Bu Sekar does not need to contract anymore.”
“Nggak ah Mas ventar ngerepotin. I have kids too. Not good if I stay there while bringing my kids.”
“Neither Papa Ma'am. That's home now no one's left. Instead of being empty, it's better for you and the kids to live there. My mother will be my butler there. For the beginning, Bu Sekar will give me a salary of five million a month.”
“Later I will also find another worker. The cooking part, clean, clean gardener. I'll find another worker. So, Ma'am Sekar will not be alone there. If you have a recommendation for people to work at my house, just say it. Um, if they can be widows who are in trouble.”
There was another reason Andi asked his workers to be widows. A widow who is left by her husband sometimes cannot find a job that provides a large salary. Isn't this also the form of Andi helping them.
As his mother said, don't just give anything away. Because if we just give to them, they will not grow and will continue to depend on us. Better to help in this way. Help those who are in short supply by giving them a job with a large salary. If you can why not?
“How? If Bu Sekar wants, next week I go to the boarding house Mother to help move.”
“Can I think of this first Mas?” Ask Sekar.
“Sure, please use Mom time. If Bu Sekar agrees, I just call me. I already have my number.” Obviously Andi.
After her sisters finished bathing and changed clothes, Andi took them to her computer shop. Andi was quite comfortable shopping there. When entering the computer shop, Andi could see the eyes of his two sisters sparkling.
“Sister, will brother buy me a laptop?” Tanya Amira was quite enthusiastic.
Speaking of laptops, Andi recalled not giving up one of the laptops he bought last month to his sisters. It looks like the laptop will belong to Amira. Wouldn't he buy a computer unit for Arfan now. When viewed from the value, what you will buy for Arfan times the price is higher than the phone and laptop that belongs to Amira.
After all, Arfan does not really need a laptop for his school. In a few months, the boy was already sitting on the Junior High. But, as you recall, Junior High students do not need too many laptops when compared to High School students.
“No. Your laptop is in the apartment. I forgot to bring it home and give it to you. This time we want to buy something for Arfan.”
“Forku?” Ask Arfan while referring to himself.
“Ya for you. I'll buy you a digital drawing kit.”
“Is that Really Brother?” Ask Arfan enthusiastically.
“Of course.”
Andi then consulted with the technicians who were there. Andi wants to make a computer unit with specs that suit his wishes. Obviously, there are no products here. Therefore he needs to say the spec he wants to the technician who is there.
Andi decided to buy two computer units for now. One for Arfan that Andi will take home to his hometown, and another for himself to program the game. He plans to put it in his new home in Surabaya. The technicians said that Andi's computer unit will be completed in the afternoon.
In addition to the computer unit, Andi also bought his sister a tablet pen that will later be connected to his computer device. For all that, Andi spent two hundred and forty million. As Andi was about to pay for all that, Andi heard a slight commotion not far from the cashier's desk.
“Ah why is the price going up now? I've saved up long enough it's not enough to buy it.” Said a young man who was talking to the waiter.
“Not last month the price is not this high? Usually, electronic goods are getting cheaper, right? Why is this one on the rise?”
“Sorry Mas, but the item that Mas asked was no longer produced. Now the manufacturer is bringing out a new product. And this price is clearly different from the previous product. If you don't have enough money, we still have another brand. It is not inferior to the brand that you want. The price is also much cheaper.” Said the shopkeeper trying to give an explanation.
“Ah but I just want that product. Products with that brand provide better performance than other brands. If you know like this, I should have just received my friend's invitation to become a freelancer.” After saying so, the young man left the shop.
Andi suddenly felt curious about the young man. He then hired the shopkeeper who had previously served the young man.
“That's why Mbak?” Ask Andi.
The waiter immediately gave his best smile to Andi. After all, Andi was already a VIP customer of their store. In just two months he had already ordained hundreds of millions in this shop. Moreover, today Andi thoughtlessly paid two hundred and forty million. Of course he is the one who needs to be given the best service so that tomorrow-tomorrow back to their store.
“Ah she's Mas design boy, still college her. Every weekend he would come here to check out new things. These last few months he's been after one of our tablet pens. But it looks like the money he is not enough to buy a tablet pen of his target brand. And he won't buy anything else.” Obviously the waiter.
I don't know why Andi wanted to help the young man. Of course Andi will not just buy the desire of the young man. This waiter said that the young man was a design boy, right? If he has a good picture, maybe Andi will invite him to work together.
Andi is planning to make a game, he needs a supporting image right? He plans to work with Arfan. But his brother had not completed his test. So, Andi can't do that.
If the image made by the young man was to his liking, then Andi did not mind cooperating with him.
“Alright Ma'am thanks for the information.”
