LOST (Anna)'s
Chapters 13. A visit to the orphanage.
"Yes, Bun, I'll take my time there. Sorry, I didn't have time to stop by there." Ryan seemed to be talking to someone over the phone.
Its alright. Ryan is busy. Take care of your health, right?
"Good, Mother. Mother also take care of health." Ryan ended the conversation with a greeting.
"Bro, please clear my schedule for two days, I'd like to visit the parlor" she told Nathan, who was busy typing in the guest chair.
"OK, noted!" nathan replied without turning his eyes to the laptop.
"We will also find Mr. Dirno's house there," continued Ryan who immediately made Nathan silent.
Nathan was instantly gamang. Should she tell her meeting with Anna? What if Ryan thinks that Anna is his sister, when obviously the girl is the youngest daughter of Dirno who happens to have the same name?
Not to mention, Ryan would definitely rush to ask him to leave right now without thinking about the work that was still piling up and unscheduled.
As a result, for now Nathan chose to hide it first from his best friend.
...**********...
The children of the home cheered, when Laila, the owner of the parlour told them about the arrival of 'Sister Ryan' there.
Ryan had indeed intentionally asked them to call him that, without the frills of a respectful call.
Anna who is the new caretaker at the orphanage can only smile at the happiness of the children of the orphanage about the arrival of the donor. He had heard from Laila about Cetta Corp, which had been a regular donor for a dozen years. Even their orphanage isn't the only one.
There are three more orphanages, one of which has been taken care of the company for longer, namely since the previous leader was still alive.
All residents of the home, including older children, are now busy cleaning their homes and rooms to welcome him. Anna and the other two attendants started shopping for groceries.
...**********...
Two days later.
The atmosphere of the parlour today seemed so busy and bustling. After helping take care of her baby sister and toddler, Anna rushes to help Bude Maya and Deva in the kitchen to cook a variety of simple, appetizing dishes.
"Bude, it looks like the kids are too sorry for the donor?" anna asked Bude Maya, who was so astonished to see their excitement.
Bude Maya chuckles. "Indeed. Mr. Ryan always pamper children with many toys he carries. Not to mention he also likes to forget the time when he was here. You can even stay, you know!"
Anna nodded her head. "It's worth it that some of the orphanage children had a debate over 'Sister Ryan'." The girl giggled amusedly.
"Yes, Mr. Ryan does stay and sleep with the kids."
Anna is touched by Bude Maya's story. Who would have thought, in this cruel world there are still a handful of people who have angelic kindness. What else does that goodness come from the rich who usually love to bully the weak.
"I'm getting nervous Bude. What if Mr Ryan doesn't like my performance here?" anna was worried.
"No, Mr. Ryan is not like that. After all, he left everything to Mother Laila and did not interfere too much about the matter. At best, just give advice."
Anna agrees. He hopes, the man likes his performance so as not to give bad advice to Mother Laila.
The time had already shown at nine in the morning, when Ryan's car was approaching the direction of the parlour. Together with Bowo, the two could see dozens of the orphanage children and caretakers marching to welcome their arrival.
Some children even prepare balloons and flowers, as well as cardboard paper with the words 'Welcome home, Brother Adryan!'
"They're too much." Ryan muttered unkindly, though his smile was now expanding. A warm and peaceful feeling enveloped the thirty-four-year-old man.
Ryan laughed, as the orphanage children began to surround them both with their own babbles. They get jealous when Ryan and Nathan hold one of their smallest siblings.
Seeing the chaos, Mother Laila and some caretakers seemed to try to calm the children.
The children were able to calm down after Nathan said, "the most polite and neatly lined up will get a gift from Om Bowo!"
Without waiting for long, they rushed to form a line.
Bowo can only grimace resignedly about his call that sounds old, even though the age of the man was even far above Ryan.
Anna and Bude Maya who had just finished preparing the dish, rushed over following out the parlour.
The girl's eyes widened, when she accidentally met Nathan who was also staring at her.
Nathan was no less surprised than Anna.
"Come, come on, let's go in first!" Mother Laila's voice suddenly scattered them.
Ryan and Nathan cross paths with Maya as well as Anna.
Maya welcomes their arrival very kindly, as well as Ryan and Nathan who do not hesitate to kiss the hands of old caretakers such as Maya and Mother Laila.
"Ahh, son Ryan. This is our new caretaker, Anna," Laila told Ryan. "Anna, this is Mr. Ryan, whom Mother told me yesterday."
The name is again very sensitive for Ryan.
Ryan was silent. His eyes looked at Anna with an illegible look.
For some reason, the man felt very familiar with Anna's face.
Getting such a look, Anna became worried by herself. Could it be that the man did not like her?
Well, lest he don't like me, keep asking Mommy to fire me! Anna's mind was panicking.
"Greetings, I'm Ryan" said Ryan, extending his hand to Anna.
Anna awkwardly welcomed Ryan's hand. "Greetings, sir, I'm Anna" said the girl.
Behind Ryan, Nathan looked dumbstruck, as if he was thinking about something.
After shaking Ryan's hand, Anna greeted Nathan kindly.
"We'll see Mas Nathan again" Anna smiled.
Hearing that, Ryan turned his eyes to Nathan.
"This is Anna, the girl we almost blew up the other day." Nathan tried to briefly explain their meeting.
"Oh, so Mr. Nathan!" chirps Mother Laila. "Yes, that time Anna came to the parlour in a state of injury."
Nathan grimaced and apologized. "I was too careless driving that car." Said.
"It's okay, all right, it's done. After all, I also unintentionally injured you." In honor of Ryan, Anna invites Nathan to speak in formal language.
Ryan could only stare at the two in turn.
