The towering wrought-iron circuit, decorated with luxurious classic ornaments, opened up on its own as Khayru's car drove closer and closer towards the exit. However, he stopped right in front of the security guard post because he remembered a small object attached there. Yes, CCTV cameras are always On lurking around there. He just remembered if the object was connected to his mobile phone through an application-IMSeye.
"Good morning, Mr ...." Ferdy-satpam watch this afternoon, say hello. "Can you help me, sir?" He got out of his post offering help.
Khayru was silent for a moment. "Mm .. no, Fer. It's okay." Khayru looked back at the clock on her wrist and then chose to immediately drive forward, because there was a meeting at the office this morning.
In between busyness, he was back cool with his cellphone, until he was unaware Aldi and Risa had entered his room.
"This is the latest cloth sample that we will produce after last stock out all. But because of the limitations of raw materials, this model may be our Mark up because it will be very limited edition later," explained Risa on Aldi. On the sidelines they approached Khayru.
"O yeah. Also make sure not to find any more rework goods after passing QC like the past events, Ris."
"certain. We will always monitor the SOP in every transfer of goods. We also emphasize on the QC team to further improve its speed and accuracy, sir."
"Sir?" aldi asked in surprise as he glanced towards Risa.
"Yes ... Sir. Why?" Risa confirmed her words.
"Sir?" Aldi like not to like the call 'Pak' that Risa addressed to him.
"Bec-yes ... Mr."
Lisa felt that there was nothing wrong with her words. Their conversation made Khayru who was originally only focused on the mobile screen, immediately raised her face.
"You why? What's the problem?"
"E-no, that's okay," Aldi replied as he pulled a piece of silk from Risa's hand. "This, Ru, sample our new product. Very very limited edition."
Khayru stood up from her work throne while reaching for the object and observing it.
"Beauty ... Elegant." He stroked its soft texture. "When did production start?"
"Soon." timpal Risa.
"Where's Mas Iru going to have lunch?" continued.
Aldi glared, looking closely at Risa's eyes.
"I mean ... 'Sir Iru'. Sorry." Risa used her words.
Khayru was silent for a moment while rubbing her forehead. Then stop for having to pick up Maula at school.
"You have lunch, first. I'll pick up Maula first." Khayru tidied up her suit while rushing away.
"Oh yes, Di, tomorrow I will go to Lombok. The Hotel & Resort manager asked to attend a new employee reception there" he explained before opening the door.
"okay, Ru. Success always makes the hotel there."
“You wait for your brother to pick you up, yes, La. There my parents just came home, I came home first.”Ariel simply unscrewed her helmet cover while stopping the iron horse she was riding in front of Maula.“Don't forget to apologize politely to Om Iru,”message Ariel before returning to direct the motor to the highway.
Maula nodded her head while occasionally staring in a different direction. Who knows Khayru has come to pick him up.
“Be careful, Riel. Greetings to Mama Papamu.”Maula looked at Ariel who was starting to pass from before her.
Ariel stopped the bike again just to raise both hands. Form a '*Love*' that makes Maula smile widely and wave.
"Bye, Ariel ...." The motor was moving away from the school gate.
Before long, there was the sound of a deafening horn. The lowered maula immediately raised her head while standing upright, no longer leaning against the school gate.
"*Finally came also*. *It was a long time ago*."
Maula immediately ran to the car because she did not want to waste any more time.
"Wait a long time, huh?"
"Bangette"
"Tumben didn't come home with Ariel?"
"Ariel asked me to wait for Brother."
"Oh, so because of Ariel," muttered Khayru while frowning.
"Ariel also told me to apologize to you, brother," he said as he fitted his seatbelt.
"Can't you just apologize for Ariel?" Actually, he just wanted to tease Maula.
"Absolutely, am I wrong, brother? Why should I apologize?"
"Why don't you ask Ariel? What's the reason he told you to apologize to you, brother?"
"Akh, lupain. Nyesel I'm talking to Ariel."
"Some of you, in front of Brother Ariel talking again, Ariel again."
"What's the matter, anyway?" he looked up while looking at wonder. "For a long time look like the Fathers again ngawasin his daughter. I think the husband suspected his cheating wife. Or like a girlfriend again suspecting that she's playing behind it." Maula stared with a frown. "Right!"
"What?" Maula again shot Khayru in the face with a look. I hope he repeats his words.
"Akh, no." Khayru shook her head. "Abang wants to stop by the grave for a bit, Dek. Do you want to get off in the car?"
"Come, Bang." Maula also opened her seatbelt when Khayru stopped in front of the TPU.
From a distance, he stared straight at the two graves side by side with tombstones made of black marble. It was as if she had been stranded nine years ago. A face full of tiredness that came just to beg. It still feels like holding a warm hand and two eyes that are always wet with tears.
"*From this moment, Papa leave the responsibility for Maula to you*."
"*After the onset is old enough, you can legally officiate your marriage*."
"*Papa only wants you to be the soul mate. No parting*."
"*Sorry if when you live in this household, Papa is no more*."
"Ma ...." Unknowingly his lips chalked up a name. As if unsure of himself.
"Absite ...." Maula shook Khayru's arm as the phone in her suit pocket continued to ring.
"Yes ...."
"*Handphone* it sounds, tuh, Bang."
Khayru picked up and stared at the mobile screen. But he did not answer his call.
"*Lawyer*."
Khayru did not want to answer the phone in front of Maula. Therefore, he asked Maula to pray in front of his parents' tomb.
"Sir, you go there first. Later
Brother is following."
Maula nodded and got out of her car.
"Good, Om. We will gather after I return from Lombok. Hope everything comes in time."
"Let me tell you again."
'Om' in question is Suryadi's lawyer who is none other than Aldi's father. They would gather to deliver one will that was unknown to Maula and the others. It will coincide with Maula's nineteen-year birthday.
After returning from the cemetery, they headed straight home because Khayru had to prepare for his departure to Lombok.
"Want to go to Lombok?" maula asked before they both went into their rooms.
"Why is that?"
"There's no intention of taking me, is that it?"
"What is your school? There a week, loh."
"Tomorrow, semester break, time, Bang."
Khayru was silent for a moment before finally approving Maula's request.
"Yeeaay, holiday to Lombok!" he shouted while raising his hand. "Pink beach, Senggigi beach .. I am coming!"
Khayru stared while shaking her head. There was a smile that seemed to be forced from his lips.
"*good. Have fun because after returning from there, there is a surprise waiting for you*."
To be continue ....
