LOVE STRATA 1

CS1 Anjani Sick

Motor Meli arrived at the shoe shop. A car and two other motorcycles were parked there first. With a carefree heart Meli entered into the shophouse. Meli did not want to bother with the man who had confronted her on the street.

The figure that Meli first saw was Rangga. Meli is aware and knows very well that a new shophouse is opening tomorrow. Meli who felt foreign to Rangga was immediately approached and accused him of various kinds.

“Eh, want to change shoes?” accuse Meli of sinlessness.

“Woo! This mama just came to play recriminate. Do I have the look of a thief?” Rangga defended himself. His jaw accent is so distinctive it sounds.

“Well what is it?” Meli pointed at the shoes that Rangga was holding on the shelf.

Rangga breathed deeply. Shoes held fast are returned to the display rack. Rangga did not want to argue on his first day of work. Rangga wants to focus on working, working, and working.

“Meli,” call Ken.

“Hey, Brother Ken. There's a thief, nih!” Meli reported her allegations to Ken.

Ken pat jidat. He was not out of thought with the behavior of the newlyweds in front of him.

“Name Rangga. Employees here. Mario is hiring,” bright Dika who just got off the second floor.

“Oh.” Meli. He had thought.

“Duh. If your husband was here, his mouth would have been chopped. Suudzon, hell.” Ken's head bobbles.

“Astaghfirullah. Forgive Meli Oh Allah. Forgive Meli also Mas Azka. Meli promise will be more careful when speaking,” Meli prayer while closing both eyes and raising her hand.

Ken was again made to shake his head to see Meli who suddenly prayed with a loud voice. While Dika smiled looking at Meli's innocent attitude. Dika also dreamed about Meli. However, her bad thoughts were quickly crushed when Dika recalled that Meli had become Azka's wife.

“Sorry yes Brother Rangga is good. Hehe. Hello, my name is Meli. His wife Mas Azka.” Meli was so proud of her status.

“Meli is married?” ask Rangga.

“Iya. Newlyweds,” chirped Ken then left them all.

Ken saw Anjani parked the bike. Ken watched closely the beautiful figure of Anjani because his movements were not as usual. Anjani looks tired. Sure enough, when Anjani walked closer then Ken could see the pale look on Anjani's face.

“You sick?” ken asked as Anjani stepped into the shophouse.

Anjani shook her head slowly while putting a smile on her face. Anjani can lie to herself by saying that she is fine. However, his pale face could not lie to anyone who was there at all.

“Anjani. Your face is pale, tuh!” Meli who was just aware of the arrival of Anjani was approaching soon.

“I'm just a little tired. Not going to do anything, kok.” Anjani tries to convince Meli.

“You said no why. If until Brother Mario knows, he must be the one who is why.” Meli whispering.

Anjani pinches softly Meli cheek while smiling. Anjani wants to joke with Meli, but she is too tired. The man he met yesterday on the street also disturbed his mind.

“Yuk, upwards. We discuss the preparation tomorrow,” take Anjani.

Anjani signals the pads Meli, Ken, and Dika to quickly gather upstairs, meeting Mario. Anjani also asked Rangga to join, because what will be discussed is the shophouse stay schedule.

Dika and Ken walked up the stairs first. With a carefree move, Meli followed later. Anjani tailed behind Meli's steps by holding on to the stairs. Slowly Anjani stepped because his condition felt tired. However, half the footing of the stairs Anjani slipped.

“Aaaa!” exciting Anjani. Trying to reach the ladder.

“Be careful!” Rangga reflexes pulled Anjani's arm and managed to support her body.

Anjani falls in Rangga's arms. Their eyes were caught in a few seconds. Meli, Ken, and Dika gaped at the friendly scene.

“Ehem!” Mario Dehem.

Quickly Anjani broke away from Rangga's embrace.

“Ma-sorry, Mas.” Anjani.

“Be careful,” Rangga said briefly, then continue to climb the stairs.

Anjani sees the figure of Rangga passing past him. Anjani's right hand reflex touched the left chest. A slow breath followed later. Anjani's chest is pounding.

Anjani, Mario, Meli, Ken, Rangga, and Dika sat on the sofa. But the atmosphere there is different. Mario did not open the chat immediately. His face looks dislike. It was as if there were emotions being held back.

“Huuum. Hot-hot. AC forgot not lived, here!” chirp Meli, then step in search of AC remote.

Heat. The atmosphere of the second floor of the hot shophouse. Not hot in the real sense. The heat that was felt because the fire of jealousy was engulfing. Mario is jealous to see the friendly scene of Anjani and Rangga, earlier on the stairs.

“Bro. Condition your heart. Rangga only helps Anjani. If not helped, it could fall. Professional, Bro. Professional.” Ken whispered, so that the others would not know what he was saying.

Mario's eyes closed for a moment. After that, then he started a chat about the shophouse guard schedule for his team. Mario is back to being professional. Leading his team is like a leader in general.

“Rangga, if you feel you need one more person to help you in the packing order, feel free to say. I'll find him soon.” Mario is open.

“God's Insya. Ohy. Across the street it's mushollah, right? Any Azan permit pilgrims there, yes?” Rangga permission first.

“Of course you can. You can worship freely here.” Mario smiled kindly. “Oya. One over. You can stay here if you want. I also have an operational vehicle. It's the shophouse key, and here's the motor key.” Mario is generous to his employees.

Anjani turned her head, watching the passionate Rangga. Just this time Anjani saw a male figure like Rangga with a fiery work spirit. Unknowingly Anjani's lips expanded. He smiled at Rangga. And .. apparently Mario saw that.

“Anjani, you can go home now.” Mario's tone sounded rude

“You evicted me?” ask Anjani, don't accept.

“You're sick. Go home. I'll take you home. Come!” Mario stood up to Anjani.

“No want!” Anjani refuses.

Anjani won't come home. There are some things that he will take care of behind the shophouse cashier table. Anjani intends to start his work at that time. Moreover, Mario gave a high nominal wage for all his teams.

Mario can't force Anjani. He noticed Anjani's pale face for a while, then threw his face to the other side.

“As far as you are. Do as you please.” Mario stepped away, leaving Anjani.

Ken and Dika who do not want to take a headache with the attitude of Mario immediately down to go home. Discussion of the shophouse stay schedule has been completed. From tomorrow they will both go to college, and attend the shop following the schedule. The time can also be conditioned if suddenly there is a change in the lecture schedule.

Meli is still with Anjani. Meli knows what Anjani will do behind the cash register. Anjani will ensure the readiness of operational tools for the shophouse's income and expenditure counters. Anjani will also prepare special bookkeeping as a backup archive if at any time there is an error data on the cash register system.

“Anjani. You are very pale, you know.” Meli's worried.

“Duh. This new bride is very attentive to me. Uh, how is Mas Azka?” ask Anjani.

Meli's aura always turns bright when Azka's name is called. Meli looks shy.

“Mas Azka well, really. Hopefully Om Candra and his wife will also improve soon, so that Mas Azka's mind can calm down. Aamiin.” Meli prayer is again intended for the husband, Om Candra and also the wife.

“Aamiin. Official site LDR-an, dong?” ask Anjani again. He continued to divert the chatter so that Meli would not discuss her pale face.

A sad face was seen on Meli's face when Anjani discussed LDR. However, the sad face was not long perched on Meli's face. After that Meli's face returned bright when remembering the fights Azka when ViCall with her. The commitment that Meli and Azka made will be the encouragement of both of them. Meli is sure, the LDR period will be able to pass.

“I've created a special list for Mas Azka. So, if Mas Azka has time to visit me in Jember, I will do it with Mas Azka,” Meli explained with her cheerful tone.

“Do what?” Anjani doesn't understand.

“I'm the same Mas Azka want to rent a hotel,” Meli replied innocently.

“Hire hotel?” Anjani made sure of what he heard.

“Iya, hotel rent. He said, Mas Azka wants to take up sports together there,” Meli bright with a sinless face.

“OK, enough. No need to continue. Now help me take care of this!” Anjani who understood the direction of Meli's conversation quickly ended the chat about Azka.

Anjani and Meli dissolve in the conditioning of cash register and bookkeeping machines. Finished with it all, Anjani and Meli prepared special bookkeeping for orders via olshop. Anjani is used to double archives. It looks complicated, but it will be very helpful for profit and loss analysis if the archive database on the system occurs an impromptu error.

Silently, Mario continues to watch Anjani from the second floor of the shophouse. Mario is worried about Anjani's pale face. I would love to go back and tell Anjani to come home in a better tone. Mario was a little sorry for being a little rude to Anjani earlier.

“It looks like I've been overreacting to Anjani. Rangga unintentionally hugged Anjani. Rangga just wants to help Anjani,” thought Mario. He brushed aside his bad prejudices.

Mario's lips smiled slowly. Anjani and Meli were joking down there.

How do I muster up the guts to re-apply you, Anjani? Inner Mario

Rangga walked towards the cashier table because Anjani called him. Anjani and Meli showed simple bookkeeping to Rangga. Anjani also briefly explained how to charge it.

“I understand. In my previous work place also use this kind of bookkeeping. For archive. The difference there is no advanced technology like this Mario cash register,” explained Rangga.

“May Kak Rangga feel at home working here, yes.” Meli smiled kindly at Rangga.

“God's heart. Moreover, Mario is very good giving a high salary. There are plenty of facilities for employees as well. Uh, my sisters must be able to calm down the school because the cost is already there.” Rangga looks happy.

“Mas Rangga finances his sisters too?” ask Anjani.

“That's. Just help your parents, kok.” Rangga did not tell me more about his family's condition.

Anjani is increasingly amazed by the figure of Rangga. In the eyes of Anjani, Rangga is not only a hardworking figure, but also cares for his family.

“Astaghfirullah,” shine Anjani suddenly.

Anjani's head suddenly dizzy. Anjani held her forehead.

“Anjani. Ouch. Kan, you better rest. You're that sick again.” Meli excited to see Anjani.

Anjani shook her head slowly, and still tried to smile in front of Meli. However, not long after that Anjani collapsed. Again it is the Rangga who had the opportunity to help Anjani. Anjani is back in Rangga's arms. More than that, Rangga quickly carried Anjani's body alone.

Mario saw all of that. Eyes rounded. Heart's thick. The flames of jealousy were again fierce.
