Just A Wedding

chapter 17

Henry

(I didn't go to work Ma'am, mama's sick )

I

(Mum Mery is sick what ? )

Henry

(Mama's old illness is recurring. )

I immediately remembered, Miss Merry has a history of heart disease. Is this because of Henry ? Is this because of a problem related to me. Oh God what should I do. I don't want to cause any trouble. Back I typed wa's message for Hendry.

me

(Why can it recur ? Is there anything wrong with his heart ? )

Henry

(I'm just trying to be honest with my mom. )

me

(I mean ? )

Henry

(I told my mom that I had done something that was not commendable to a girl. )

I

(Is Merry mad at you ? )

Henry

(Not angry just crying, this morning complaining his heart ached. )

I

(Henry, I'm sorry. )

Henry

(I'm guilty of the same Ma'am. I will still be responsible for what I did to Ms. Arin )

Henry

(Lunch Ma'am Arin I have ordered a break later sent. For father and Jhoji I'm sorry I couldn't drive myself. )

me

(Why are you thinking about us ? You just focus on Merry's health. )

Henry

(It's okay I can still cope. )

i'm.

(The Spirit of Henry )

Henry

( Ma'am. If anyone from the garden just go straight to the hospital................ )

me

(Yes ready )

Henry did have other businesses in the field of agribusiness and agro-tourism that he managed with his best friend Javier. The plants he managed were very diverse ranging from vegetables and fruit.then he fit into several department stores. He is now starting to plant flowers. Henry was a hard worker. Smart young people looking for business opportunities. But he was also the figure of a young man who could not keep quiet. Henry often went directly with the workers to cultivate and plant on the land. What I like most about Henry is that he not only looks at business but also cares about others. He always used labor-intensive systems to cultivate his land rather than using machines. When I asked why not just use a tractor to plow Henry's rice fields straightforwardly replied. "Cassians of farm workers when using tractors. The regulars he worked with every day and the freelancers he called upon at important times - as important as the growing and harvesting seasons.

Henry

(Thank you very much Ma'am)

..................

It's been two days that Henry hasn't been in the office. But still regularly send food to me and Dita. And so is our food at home. Today I came a little early because Henry said he would take me to another branch. When I got there, Henry was standing facing a large glass window with both hands in his pants pocket. Using a light blue long-sleeved shirt with white stripes and white pants makes him look even more handsome. I stood at the door a long time ago to look at him from behind. I looked at him for a long time. Is it really this guy who was with me a while ago ? Is it really this man who comes to my house every day ?. Henry turned to me and gave a smile so that his white teeth were clearly lined up.

" Hi...... Are you ready ? "

" Yes.... Dita hasn't come yet".

" I've ordered to Dita to take care of the office.we're just the two of us mbak."

" oh.........."

" I ordered food for you and Jhoji. Yesterday I was Wastapp Jhoji. He wants to eat pizza."

" Yes thanks a lot. Why do you have to take food home every day ?"

"Bak has been my responsibility ever since. I don't want Madam Arin to get sick from tiredness."

" But the need for a home is why you buy it too. It has nothing to do with being tired, either,"

" I don't want to run out of work Madam Arin stopped by the store. Better get home on a break".

....................

It was already late in the afternoon when we finished making a visit at the last branch of the store and this store was located outside of the city.

" I stopped by the land for a moment. There's a jasmine harvest now,"

A little long drive about - about an hour to the mountainous area I entered a very good area. Along the way there is a pink tabebuya tree in bloom and underneath there is a colorful kanna flower.

" Waaaaahhhhh......... I want a photo here, I'm going down."

" Likes ?"

" Yeah "I answered with pleasure.

I was always smiling until I moved my body and face forward towards the glass, in awe. Especially when the Tabebuya flowers fall and many hit the glass of Henry's car.

" Waaaaaaahhhhhh like in Japan, let's go down."

Slowly Henry stopped his car. For a moment I asked Henry to take a picture of me posing in the middle of the road.Tangan reluctantly Henry borrowed a bike beetle owned by farmers passing by. We took a picture together with the pose riding the beetle bike, by asking the farmer for help.

" Welcome to the agro-tourism garden" The inscription clearly emblazoned across the archway.

" haaaaahhhhhh,"

I was amazed again - amazed by this place. When we entered there were many ornamental plants.

" This is yours ?" I asked innocently because I was amazed by this place.

" No. join Javier. We bought it from the old owner because he went through bankruptcy. then we developed it like this ".

" Does Javier live here too ?"

" I'm fully managing. Javier's coming here if he comes home. He lives in Norway with his wife".

" Oooohhhhh,"

I was even more amazed - amazed by this place to see workers picking jasmine flowers that are still buds to be frozen and used for bridal decoration. This place is very beautiful divided into several areas with flowers, fruits and vegetables.

" Henry, you're a hard worker ."

" I'm working harder because Ms. Arin is also my responsibility."

After the magrib we decided to go home. I called my sister to pick up Jhoji because I still can't go home. Jhoji to me is like a son, if I go like this I always remember Jhoji

As we were about to cross a field in a village, there was a bustling night market. I asked Henry to stop by for a minute. Henry agreed with my wishes. Park the car on an empty land, a bit far from the center of the crowd. We walk, I'm like a little boy that his father took with us because of our height differences. Many looked at Henry for his height and good looks.

Like a child, I bought a lot of food and drinks.

" I want to eat a round compote,"

Henry just followed me and sipped my collar

We walked again, back I pointed

" I want it...mau it.." pointing a cart selling lemonade with a variety of flavors.

" Sir lemonade sir salak ya......."

this time Henry turned down my offer to taste my favorite ice lemonade when I was a kid. Henry and I were still walking around looking at the night market. Henry just smiled at my behavior like a child.

" I still want to buy lupis and cenils, okay ?"

" The same basket and look can be."

I tried to pinch Henry's stomach hard because of the little fat. Henry held my hand preventing me from pinching him. It is very difficult when going to pinch Henry, his muscles are very hard because of diligent exercise. Henry just laughed at my behavior.

" I still want to buy - buy again but fear your money runs out. I want boiled beans, sweet Arum, teng teng sugar beans java (there are also those who call this food cake &yang beans) and rangin cake to eat in the street and take home."

" He...he. I'm just worried about what belly Ma'am Arin's got ?"

" Woof.......Yes........ can........."

" Yes may........"

Henry shook his head in shock at my request so much.

" Horeeee" my cheers half ran towards the salesman I called and left Henry still stunned with me.

" Mum boiled beans are two examples of yes."

" Sir, the cake is twenty thousand."

" Sir, Arum is the sweet one."

" Mom, of course five nuts" I sniffed at the four sellers in front of me. While Henry was behind me just watching with a smile.

" Oya sir anyone selling red gulali in doll print or others ? ask the seller in front of me.

" There's Mbak over there, "the boiled peanut merchant replied by pointing in a direction not far from us. After all the orders we received I ran again towards the traditional gulali seller.

" Sir one,"

" Shaped what is not mbak ?"

" Shaped Sir. Doll shape yes,"

While waiting for the order because many bought me sat on a small wooden chair (if in my place, we call it dingklik ). I asked Henry to sit in an empty chair. You can imagine how difficult Henry with long legs he had to sit in a small chair that was not high. He looks like a man crouching. Moreover, the pants that Henry used in white made him misbehave between obeying my wishes and remembering the color of his pants.

I was happy to go around and buy food. I'm taking Henry home.

The clock was eight o'clock when Henry forced me to stop at a restaurant to eat.
