Labuhan Cinta The Playboy
Poor, Rocky!



...🍁🍁🍁...


Today Visha is busy with preparing catering shipments and arranging them in a box car. Karina's mother finally added employees to help her cook and put food into a rice box shaped like a bowl that has been prepared. The concept of catering for these employees is rice bowl, which lately is trending among office workers.


This time the order increased as Galang told Visha when they met a few days ago.


As usual, Visha is escorted by Edo, driving a boxcar.


"Do, next time don't take Ali. It's enough we both deliver the order."


"Sorry, Ma'am. Yesterday, Ali was suddenly in the car. Visha's own mother also allowed Ali to come along."


"Yes too. I thought nothing would happen, but it turns--"


"What's real, Ma'am?"


"Eh? Its alright. Forget what I said."


Oh God!!! I'm going to talk! What if Edo gets suspicious? I hope it doesn't. From now on I have to be careful in speaking.


"Oh yeah, where are we going?" Visha switched the conversation.


"To his Papanya Mas Galang's office first, Ma'am. Mom said so."


"Oh, so. Alright."

Edo tidied the rice bowl into a trolley that Visha would bring into the office. Visha walked slowly for fear of having her luggage spilled. He took the elevator to go to the floor that had been agreed with the office. Visha is asked to meet an employee named Maharani.


TING'S. The elevator rang indicating that Visha had reached the floor she was on. He glanced at his watch.


Exactly at 11 noon. I don't think I'm late. His inner.


Visha immediately pushed the trolley out of the elevator. But suddenly the trolley he pushed hit a man who was about to get into the elevator and resulted in the man falling down and several boxes of rice bowl fell and spilled into the man's shirt.


The man complained in pain and shouted hysterically as his coat was hit by Visha's food.


"What'sthis? Use your eyes when carrying things! Look it! You spilled food on my shirt!"


Visha bowed in fear. He continues to apologize but the man continues to nag Visha.


"Boss!!!" Another man approached the fallen man, and helped him to his feet.


"Boss is okay?" ask the man's friend.


"You see this for yourself! You think I'm okay, huh?!"


"Sorry, once again I'm sorry, sir." Visha looked down while apologizing.


"You think apologizing can make my shirt come back clean, huh?!"


"I'm really sorry. I will be in charge." Visha's answer was still with her head bowed. This was his first day delivering food at this company. And it ended up with an incident like this. A kind of worry filled his heart and brain.


"Do you know how much my shirt costs? And again, is this what you spilled on my shirt?" The man sniffed his clothes that were hit by the watering of the gravy.


"Sorry, Sir. That-is-is rendang sauce."


"Haish!! Yes already! I don't want to hear any more apologies from you. Donny, get me another shirt. I have to meet with Papa." The man did not touch Visha anymore, and left her instead.


Visha cursed her less cautious self. He cleaned up the leftover food and threw it in the trash. He immediately contacted Edo and asked him to bring another box of rice bowls.

Office space Leonard Abraham, Abraham,


"Thank you for coming both of you. Papa's happy with both of you're successful."


Leonard Abraham sighed. He looked deeply at Rocky.


"Papa's happy with your little success, Rocky. But--" Leonard glanced at his assistant, Jemmy.


Jemmy handed Leonard some papers.


Leonard thrusts the paper toward Rocky and Galang.


"What is this, Pa?" Ask Galang.


"Papa is disappointed with you---"


"What does Papa mean? Papa said Papa was proud of both of us." Rocky started talking.


"You're really embarrassing Papa, Rocky! Is there anything you can do with your own efforts, huh?! You always trouble others."


"Pa--"


"This is the proof." Leonard pointed to one paper. "How can you pay your office rent for the money you got from your brother? You're asking her for help?"


"Pa-not like that-" Galang defended his sister.


"And your project yesterday. It was also thanks to your brother's help right? Answer Rocky!!"


"Leave the building right now! Move your office here!"


"W-what?" Rocky.


"And you must return all the money Galang has given you to help you."


"Pa, I did everything---" Galang continued to defend Rocky.


"Enough, Steady! Papa doesn't want to hear from you. Jemmy!!!"


"Yes, sir."


"Prepare all stock transfer files. Rocky's shares will be transferred to Galang, to pay all of Rocky's debts to Galang."


"Pa! Don't do that! What about my employees in the office?"


"Employee? How many employees are in your office? 100? 200? How many?"


Rocky thought for a moment, "25 people, Pa."


"Just 25 people. Move them to the 13th floor."


"Floor 13? Is that not wrong, Pa? Isn't that Brahms Corp's warehouse?"


"Until you can buy your own building for your company, you use that warehouse first. Tomorrow get ready to move all your office stuff there."


".............." Galang can't say anything more to defend Rocky. His father is very angry at this time.


"Good, Pa." Rocky relented and obeyed his father's orders.


He looked at Rocky with pity. He really did not think that Leonard Abraham had been watching the movements of the two of them.


...🍁🍁...


At five o'clock in the afternoon, Rocky returns to his apartment in shaky steps. The day ended very hard this time. He wanted to immediately wash himself with fresh water so that his heart and mind were also refreshed.


Rocky enters his apartment room and discards the origin of the shoes he wears.


"Rocky! You finally came home!"


"Mama? How do you know my room combination keys?" Rocky is shocked to find his mother in his apartment.


"What Mama doesn't know about you, Rocky."


Rocky loosened the tie that coiled around his neck. "What's the matter for Mama to come here?" ask Rocky without making any more small talk.


Elena approached her son who was heading to the kitchen to fetch some drinking water and confronted him.


"Is it true that you borrowed money from Galang to pay for your office building rent?"


Rocky turned his face.


"Is it true, your project yesterday was also with Galang's help?" Elena keeps looking for Rocky.


Rocky still doesn't want to answer Elena's questions.


"Rocky! Answer Mama! Is all that true? You always refused help from Mama but why did you ask Galang for help? Now that you see the consequences, you have to move your office to the warehouse of Brahms Corp. Mama believes this is all Galang's doing. He has planned everything so that you continue to fail. Why are you still unconscious too, Rocky? You were supposed to listen to Mama, you should--"


"Enough, Ma!!!" Rocky yelled at Elena.


"If Mama comes here just to talk like this, you better get out of here."


"Rocky--"


"I'm bad enough, Ma. So please don't make it worse."


"Rocky-from now on you have to hear what Mama said."


"Get out, Ma!" Rocky pushes Elena's body towards the exit of her room.


"Rocky! What the hell are you doing? You kicked Mama out?"


"Get out!!! I don't want to hear anything for now. Rocky please Mama out!"


"Rocky!!!"


BRAAKK!!! Rocky slammed the door.


He quickly changed the lock code.


Rocky walked to the couch, and laid his body there. He rubbed his face. Trying to regulate his hunting breath.


One by one the memory of the events of today he re-enacted in his memory.


"Why am I so unlucky today?" Mumbled.


Then Rocky remembered the series of events that had made him very unlucky today.


"That girl!!! Food carrier girl!!! He is the cause of my misfortune today! Damn it!!! It must be because of him!!" Rocky clenched his hands tightly.
