At Arul's. He and Anisa just rest after a busy day taking care of baby Brian. The age of baby Brian is now six months and just grew one tooth makes baby Brian fever and very fussy. Last night Arul had called the pediatrician in his family and according to the doctor's description it is natural when a new baby teething. Like other mothers, of course Anisa was anxious when her child suddenly had a fever. Even all day baby Brian is very fussy and just keep crying makes Anisa confused and sad.

"Dear you slept! you must be tired! or do I want a massage?" tawar Arul who saw his wife looked exhausted.

"Not yet!" answer Anisa.

"Are you going to eat? you haven't eaten all day, you'll get sick!" arul.

"Eat ya? emm, I can!"

"Okay, what do you want me to eat?" ask Arul.

"Eating steak is delicious!" anisa looked at her husband.

"If you don't buy it! I made it special for you!!" answer Arul.

"What can you do?" asked Anisa underestimating.

"Eittss make no mistake!!! gini-gini I can cook you! not much, just a few! steik mah, cipilll!!" said Arul flicking his finger as if cooking a steak was a trivial thing.

"No belief!" cibir Anisa is doubtful.

"See it later!! I'm going to cook first!!" arul said to the kitchen.

Not long after that Arul came again.

"Why? not cooking the steak?" ask Anisa.

"So! here, you eat this apple cut just to prop up your stomach!" said Arul give a plate of apples that have been peeled and cut small.

"Aaa, so sweet really kamuuu!!!" anisa said happily.

"You eat, I cook!!" said Arul while stroking Anisa's hair makes Anisa misbehavior.

For a long time Arul wrestled with ingredients and cooking tools in the kitchen to smell the aroma of steak meat that is appetizing.

"Darling!!! not yet mateng? I'm hungry because of the smell!!" anisa is in front of the kitchen.

"Toward to see!! you wait at the dinner table!" said Arul is still busy with his cooking show.

"Special chef Arul is ready!!!" arul said after a while.

"Yeeeeeeee!!! hemm, it smells good!!" said Anisa inhale deeply the aroma of steak made by Arul.

"Try dongg!!! what's the correction?" arul.

Anisa started cutting the steak into smaller pieces and then blew it off because it was still hot and happy...

"How good is it?" ask Arul curiously.

"Bangett boy!! I can't believe you can cook like this!!!" anisa said honestly.

"Then spend it? if you need food, I'll make you less!!!" arul.

"No need! this is enough!!" said Anisa again feed the meat steak.

Arul cut off half of his meat and put half of it on Anisa's plate as well as some baby potatoes and asparagus.

"Come on..."

"You eat a lot so there is energy to take care of baby Brian again later!! thank you for taking good care of our home and children!" arul.

This expression was sincere from her heart and somehow made Anisa moved. A simple phrase indeed, but very meaningful. Anisa felt she was greatly appreciated by what she did and it made her back excited. Arul had the intention to find a baby sitter for baby Brian, but Anisa refused on the grounds she wanted to be in every growth of their first son. Arul also agreed, whatever it was as long as it made Anisa happy for Arul to do. Arul also often helps Anisa take care of baby Brian because Arul understands, the task of caring for children is not only a mother's duty, but a joint task.

The night was very late, but Mentari still could not fall asleep. He looked at the ceiling of his room hoping to get to bed soon.

"You why? why haven't you slept?" darel asked who woke up from his sleep.

"I'm sorry I interrupted your sleep!" mentari felt guilty.

"It's okay! does anyone get sick until you can't sleep? or do you want what?" ask Darel.

"Em...may I speak?" tanya Mentari hesitated.

Darel furrowed his brows, puzzled by his wife's attitude.

"Say baby? what is the restlessness of your heart?" ask Darel as gently as possible.

"So, bi Surti came here! she asked that her husband be given another job at your company!" mentari said fearfully.

"Then? did he insult you again? you know what I did to him just because he insulted and slandered you?" darel asked a little angry.

"A..I know!! but.but...."

"Yahufttt!!! are you afraid I'll get angry if you say this?" darel asked already arranged his emotions to be calmer.

"Yes!" mentari said softly while bowing his gaze in fear of Darel's eyes.

"All right!! I'll reconsider later what job title is appropriate!" darel said at last.

"Really?" tanya Mentari raised her head to look questioningly at her husband.

"Yes baby!! I don't want you to be agitated anymore because of this! let's see tomorrow, shall we? now we're sleeping!! come on, here I hug!!" said Darel brought Mentari in his arms.

Comfortable, warm, that's what Mentari felt when Darel hugged her. It didn't feel like he was sleeping in Darel's arms.

I'll make a calculation if you come back to bother my wife!! I won't forgive you again if this happens again!!! look at it tomorrow!!! inner Darel.

Darel was already sitting in his great chair in the office. This morning he left early.

"Have you contacted him?" ask Darel to Vishnu.

"Already sir!! maybe he's on his way!!" answer Vishnu.

"Adi, did you do what I told you this morning?" darel asked Adi who was standing near Vishnu.

"As per your orders, sir!! everything is done!!" answer Adi.

Tok.dok...

"Excuse me sir! there is someone who wants to meet you. He said you invited him here!" said Nurul who stood in front of the door of Darel's room.

"Let him in!!" Darel's orders.

"Good morning, sir!" greet the forty-five-year-old.

"Please come in, Mr. Abdulah!!" darel invited his guests in.

The guest was Mr. Abdulah, Mentari's uncle. As promised last night Darel will hire Mr. Abdulah again to his company. That he did so that his wife was not depressed with his aunt if he did not accept Mentari's uncle working in his company.

"You must have known your destination was called here?" darel asked with a flat face.

"I..iya sir!! earlier I apologized for my wife's carelessness by meeting Mentari!! I really didn't know that he came to see Mentari and asked for a job for me at your company!" said mr. Abdulah.

He really doesn't know anything. He found out that this morning someone called him and told him to come to Sanjaya Group's main company.

# Abduh POV #

This morning as usual I woke up this morning and picked some vegetables to be cooked by Surti. Since the work stop by Mr. Darel the other day, I haven't gotten a job yet. I have tried to apply in several places but the results are nil. No place would accept me to work. Ahh, it's so bad my nesib. Not to mention my son Aziz who has urged to immediately send money for his tuition fees. I did not agree from the beginning my son was studying at his college now which I think is very expensive. Just imagine a month it costs almost two million to spend for his own purposes.

"Mass!!! there's a phone he says is important!!!" shouted Surti.

I who was in the backyard rushed to get clean water to wash my hands. Do not forget also the vegetables that I picked were brought and placed on the kitchen table.

"Call from who, deck?" manya curious.

"Come away!! also from Darel sir's company!" surti.

From the way he spoke he looked very confident in what he was talking about. I hesitated to put the phone in my ear.

"H..helloo, yes it's my own!! whahuh? this morning?!! at eight?? ahh well, thanks for the information!!! alright, I won't be late!! thanks....thank you!!!" my word when calling with Mr. Vishnu trusted man Pak Darel in the company.

For a moment I remembered my Surti remark he said that this caller was from the company of Mr. Darel.

"Do you know where Sanjaya Group's company is calling?" my question is full of search.

I saw Surti's face pale from my question? was he behind my call to the office? what else is he doing now?

"Answer me Surti!!!" I said a little snapping.

Some more! I saw him flinch from my snaps.

"I...i.ku.kemarin I met Mentari and asked him to talk to Mr. Darel to put you into the company again." said Surti lirih but still I can hear it.

"Astaghfirullah hal'adzim, Surtiii!!! what else did you do to the point that I was called to come to the company?! wasn't it enough you got me fired that day??? so when you said you wanted to go to Andi's house it was a lie? continue the food you said the gift from mbak Sari was also a lie??" just pissed.

Surti just nodded his head with a straight bow. Astaghfirullah hal'adzim, why he can be this determined in doing. Yesterday afternoon he had permission to go to the house of Mbak Sari and mas Andi, Daniar's parents. I did not suspect him even when he asked for a hundred thousand dollars for the fare I did not suspect at all. Then when he came home, he brought a lot of plastic crackers. You know what it is? good food and much more.

Of course I asked where the money was buying all this. Because it is impossible if the result of my gift when he is about to depart is because I believe the price of this is over a hundred thousand. When I asked him he said he was given by mbak Sari. I did not ask anymore because I believed his words, but today I know where the good food came from yesterday.

"I'll just help you, Mom!! Azizi was whining to send money!! when did you have your son quit college?" he said without guilt.

Aziz is near the campus. He just comes home often too.

"That's why I said, go to college in an ordinary place!! nih ngeyel still sent him to an elite lecture!! now what are we gonna wear!! I was fired too because you slandered Tari!!" pissed me.

"Kok so I'm the wrong one, mas? I will let us have face in front of the neighbors!! shame if our son just graduated High School!!"

"Yes if he's smart it doesn't matter!! people have the brain just want to go to school anywhere the same!!! bye, I'm tired of you!! I'm gonna take a shower!!" say go.

I ignored Surti's call and continued to step into the bathroom. I hope I am called to work again, not to be scolded. Shame on me if I am called only to be lectured or worse humiliated in front of many people for my wife's mistake.
