I'm Gone

Episode 33

Shortly after Randy and Chika disappear from view, Laura enters the cafe. Laura went to the cashier and began to ask the cashier mother who was sitting casually at her stopover.

"Well, is there a job opening?" Ask Laura.

"Oh there is still mbak, please deliver the application yes mbak!" The cashier replied with his friendliness.

"Well, I haven't written a cover letter yet!" Said Laura quietly so that the cashier's mother did not listen to her words.

"How's mbak?" Asked the cashier who was confused with Laura who arrived - arrived not struggling.

"Do you want to apply for a job here?" Asked a man - a man who arrived - was already behind Laura. Laura immediately turned her body to face the source of the sound.

"Yes, I want to apply for a job here sir!" Laura replied while lowering her head.

"Judah then you come with me now!" Said the man while holding Laura's right hand.

The man immediately took Laura to his office. Then the man offered Laura to sit in a chair right in front of the man's seat.

"Please sit!" Said the man in a friendly manner.

"Thank you sir!" Laura replied, who then sat in the chair that the man pointed at.

"Previously introduce my name Rizky!" Said the man while sticking out his right hand to shake his hand.

"I'm Laura Salshabila, sir. You can call me Salsha!" Laura replied as she stretched out her right hand to shake with Rizky. Laura accidentally mentioned her name Salsha so that the time when Randy came back here Randy didn't string it.

"So you want to apply for a job here?" Rizky asked by putting both her hands on the table.

"Yes sir I really need the cost to... " Torra's words stopped because she remembered that if she told her the truth she wouldn't get this job.

"For what?" Rizky asked back because of Laura's disconnected speech.

"For my tuition, sir!" Laura is lying.

"Well then you I accept the work here!" Rizky said without thinking.

"From tomorrow you can work here!" Risky.

"What's the truth, sir?" Laura asked unexpectedly. Rizky just nodded her head which means yes.

"Well please!" Answer Rizky.

Now Laura also walked to her house which happened to be the cafe is not so far from her home. Laura, who had just arrived right at her doorstep, heard that there was a commotion inside her house. Laura entered her home to see what was going on.

"Pa, Mama needs this land letter for her treatment Laura, Pa!" Echa said while trying to pull the letter out of her Husband's hand. Yes Papa Laura is only at home at this time because usually he works out of town so rarely he goes home. Well sometimes even going home can only make a scene in this house.

"No, why would you take care of a sick child like him, just for ngabis - ngabisin pennies!" Papa Laura said. Laura who from earlier watched the two of them were seizing the land letter did not expect she had to listen to Papa's words were so cruel.

Laura's tears trickled down as she heard Papa's words that made her discouraged at this moment.

"Ma, Papa's right Laura is indeed of no use anymore!" Laura said that stopping the attraction action attracts Mama and Papa Laura at this time.

"LAURA!" Echa said, but Laura did not care about her Mama's call. He just ran to his room. Echa chased after Laura who ran to her room. Echa had also released the letter from his hand because according to Echa at this time Laura only needs spirit.

"Laura, you don't listen to your Papa's words, son!" Echa approached Laura who was sitting on her bed crying.

"Papa you were just an emotion before Ra!" Continue Echa who is now sitting next to Laura while stroking - elus Laura's hair.

"But why didn't Mama tell you from the beginning that Laura was sick with stage 2 leukemia again?" Laura asked with tears growing - so.

"Mama's afraid you're breaking Ra's spirit!" Answer Echa who is no longer able to stem her tears.

"But the truth is try Ma, sooner or later Laura will also know also Ma?" Laura asked with great emotion.

"Good thing Laura knew before it was too late Ma!" Continue Laura who is currently really hit.

"I'm sorry Mama Ra!" Reply Echa who feels very guilty for the decision he took unilaterally.

Laura who was no longer able to say anything - could only cry and continue to cry. Echa who saw Laura like this then came and hugged Laura trying to calm her down.

"From now on, I promise to work hard so you can heal, son!" Echa said while kissing Laura's forehead.
