This morning, I was in a hurry to go to work because I woke up late. I just got to town B and tidied up my temporary flat while working in town.
Actually I felt sad and happy when my father-in-law offered me a promotion and moved from city A to city B.
Happy, I no longer have to meet Bayu, the annoying sister-in-law. While the sadness is, I also have to live apart from Bella, my dear wife.
Bella works as a nurse in a state-owned hospital. So that he can not freely go out and move the workplace. According to him, he still has to work at the hospital for about three months, so he can get a letter of recommendation to move to a new workplace.
As a result, I had to declare myself doing LDR (Long Distance Relationship) with Bella. While he lives in his parents' house. I have to live alone in City B.
Today is my first day at the branch office. I am now the head manager. A job I've earned with hard work.
As soon as I got to the office, I immediately contacted Bella who I could not pick up the phone last night because I had fallen asleep. I told him the condition of the flat I was living in, which was located in one of the middle-class apartment buildings in town B. I tried to tell Bella good things so she wouldn't worry about me being alone.
I convinced Bella to take care of my diet. Which I can either keep or not. Given all this time Bella was the one who always reminded me to eat and rest, where when she found me late in studying company files until late at night.
"Just don't like to stay up, Mom! You have to be smart to take care of your health. Later if I get a letter of recommendation, I will immediately follow you move to town B," Bella asked by phone.
"Yes, Deck.. They will take care of health. You're in good health, too, honey, don't take my two sheep and run out of milk when we meet again on Sunday. You're not here on Sunday?" Ask me to flirt.
"Ah, Mother! The chatter is perverted! Ja. I'll tell you again, Mom. I hope there is no sudden change in my guard schedule. So Sunday I can nengokin you" Bella said.
"Yes, but if you're tired, don't force it either, Dek. I don't want you to get sick" I reminded Bella.
For a few moments, the phone call sounded quiet. Bella didn't answer me directly. Makes me wonder a little in my heart.
What's more lately I've been watching Bella like she's hiding something from me. Because of her I'm worried about this LDR, worried that it will even be a problem in my household with Bella.
However, Bella's remarks then instantly expel my worries about her.
"Yes, my dear, I will always try to stay healthy for you. Love love you, my hubby.." Bella's affectionate greeting made the anxiety I felt instantly disappear instantly.
"Love love you too my Lunar Queen (Queen of the Moon).." I called Bella back with my special affection for her.
Lunar Queen which means Queen of the Moon is my picture of her, which became the light in my life that had felt dark after my father died a few years ago.
"Yes already. I'll close first, Mom. I want to get ready to go take care of this," said Bella.
"Yes. You be careful, baby, if you want to eat, remember I will let your appetite increase!" My sloth is teasing.
"Chiwii.. There was-there was. Already ah. If I were to ladenin, call the same you wouldn't be in order for the next hour. All right, right there.. Assalamu'alaikum!"
"Wa'alaikum salam warohmatullah.."
Clik. The phone connection was also cut off.
After calling Bella, I went straight to my desk. There are a lot of files I have to read. I sighed tiredly. It's nothing, I think I miss Bella a lot.
However, my steps towards the table instantly came to a halt as my sense of smell caught the scent of rotten eggs.
"Hukk! what a smell! I smell like fart!"
I tried to find the origin of the stench by sniffing the empty air. I found this smell coming from the back where my desk was. I finally stepped there.
But, only then did my steps trace twice, when then I heard a fart that shrieked quite loudly.
'wcsuttt...'
"Who is that?!" I challenge anyone who has let out that fart squeak.
"Hey! don't fuck! what's the squatting there, huh?!" Hardik me on the figure of a woman who looks crouching on the back floor of my work desk is located.
Instantly my heart softened when I saw the expression of fear on the woman's face. But it was not long, when suddenly the woman stood up and pointed her index finger at me.
"You?!" Shouted the OB woman to me.
I immediately frowned. When I vaguely remembered the sweet face of the woman before me. It feels like we have met somewhere.
Three seconds later, I remembered who the woman in front of me was. Because she was the woman who had fought with me on the edge of the Pearl Lake when I was calming down about a week ago.
"Elo?!" I said back to pointing at him.
Our next conversation let me know that he was an OB staff at the office where I work now.
I also increasingly know the personality of the woman in front of me who was too brave and rude.
Luckily I feel sorry for her who just worked a day in my office. And like him he also regretted his attitude that was too challenging the superior. Because I decided to give him a chance to keep working in this office.
Even so, I still feel annoyed with his attitude that is a bit too brave and rude to the boss (meaning me). So that I even slightly work on it to make me coffee.
I thought he was good at his job in the ministry, so I thought I would only do it once. But next, I got hooked on him, especially when I found him who was not good at making black coffee, my order.
After five times making me coffee, only then did I stop pranking the rude woman. But I was again surprised by his confession about the last coffee he served me. Because he claimed that the good coffee was not made.
For a moment I was stunned. I found an uncomfortable expression on the woman's face. And then I could conclude that the woman before me was an honest man.
Laila, as the woman's nickname goes, didn't seem comfortable about receiving my praise for the good coffee. Because he admitted that it was not he who made it. An attitude worthy of praise.
Because in this day and age, where many people are competing to get praise in all ways that cannot be justified. Laila's attitude is very rarely found in this day and age. That clearly indicates that he is an honest and non-collusionist.
Next, I asked Laila to make me the same coffee for the days ahead. I don't know. I don't intend to prank the girl anymore. But I want to make coffee just by him. I thought, surely my prank soul started thrashing. And Laila was a very precise target to complete my prank soul.
For the rest of the day, I didn't see Laila anymore. Because I was busy in my study and study all the files related to the development of the branch office where I work now.
I just saw Laila again, when I was about to go home.
I found Laila walking alone on the streets when I was driving my black civic.
I don't know why I wanted to offer to drive Laila home. But I tried to shake off that perverted desire. Considering that I should not have married, even offered to go home alone with another woman. Worried that rumors would break my relationship with Bella, my dear wife.
Even so, strangely I did not also quickly go and drive my car away. Slowly, I took my car to follow Laila in the distance. Until I saw a biker who stopped and talked quite familiarly with the woman.
I look at the dislike of the big biker, either for reasons I don't understand the cause. Especially when I saw Laila piggybacking on the back of that big bike. I decided to follow both of them safely.
Until then they stopped on the side of the big road, only then did I stop anyway. Then I saw the two back together quite familiar. And that unpleasant feeling has come back to control me.
I think I want to crash my car into that moge in front of me. What a strange feeling.
Feeling my thoughts were chaotic, I downed half the contents of the bottle of mineral water that was in the seat beside me. And, the sight of the biker ruffling Laila's hair quite familiarly made me involuntarily squeeze firmly into my grip on the mineral bottle. It caused water to spill on my pants.
I turned my attention to wiping my wet shirt and shirt with a tissue on the dashboard. When I finished, I saw that the moge rider had left Laila who was now standing by the side of the road.
Feeling still upset, I drove my car pretty fast as I passed Laila. As soon as I passed the rough woman, I saw Laila's shadow through the rearview mirror. Spontaneously, I wanted to laugh.
Laila looked furiously at my car that had sped away.
"Basic grumpy chick!" Bump me while smiling amusedly.
