26. It never changes

At exactly 9 p.m., the car driven by Typhoon, reached the courtyard of Pongki's house. Pongki was waiting for Berta on the porch of the house. Look expectantly at Berta who just got off the car.

"Where are you from?" Pongki asked with a worried face.

He kept quiet, and told the Typhoon to open the trunk of the car.

"Who is this?" Pongki asked as he looked at the Typhoon closely.

The appearance of the Typhoon is different, making Pongki look pangling with Typhoon.

"Paijo, you take your groceries to your room, and my groceries to the living room" Berta ordered.

"Ngeh kanjeng mami" said Typhoon.

"Is this you Jo?" Ask Pongki as he grabbed the shoulder of Typhoon who was about to take the groceries in the trunk of the car.

Typhoon looked at Pongki and smiled shyly.

"Wah.. hahahahhaa.. What did you do to Paijo mam?" Tanya Pongki who looks happy to see Typhoon's new appearance.

Berta flinched, he stepped into his house. While Pongki continued to stare in amazement at the Typhoon.

"I'm sorry, boss. I was forced to change my appearance, same kanjeng mami, and I was forced to shop. But, I have asked kanjeng mami to cut my pay only," Light Typhoon with a face that feels bad to Pongki.

"God, it's okay." Said Pongki who continued to look at the Typhoon with a crisp face.

"It turns out you are very handsome, Jo, wow, I was afraid Bella would like you. Or my wife who likes you again" continued Pongki.

"Oh boss, I don't dare to be that sassy" Typhoon said as he lowered his face.

"Hahaha, I'm just kidding Jo." Pongki patted Typhoon's shoulders slowly.

Typhoon smiled and brought in Berta's groceries and put them in the living room. After that, he came back out and was about to bring his groceries to his room.

"Joe.." Call Pongki.

"Yes, boss?"

"So the madam said anything to you?"

Typhoon looks awkward with questions from Pongki.

"Hmmmm, don't say anything, boss."

"Lied you,"

Typhoon smiled and looked at Pongki doubtfully.

"Later tonight, I'm going to your room huh. We told stories like yesterday" Pongki said.

The typhoon nodded and permission would go to his room to Pongki.

Pongki let the Typhoon go and he followed Berta to his room.

In the room, it looks like Berta has changed his clothes with his sleeping pajamas. Then Berta went out of the room to pick up his groceries. However, he paused his steps when he saw Pongki carrying his groceries into the room.

"One point, Pongki never changed. He always brings my groceries into the room." Inner Berta.

"You want some tea? I made ya..." Pongki.

Berta was unmoved, but Pongki went straight out to make tea for Berta. Berta was silent on the edge of the bed. His mind is turbulent and at war. On one side she hated her husband. On the other hand, he felt that there was no man as good as Pongki to himself. In fact, his biological father never treated his mother, as Pongki treated him.

Not long after, Pongki arrives with a glass of tea for Berta. Then, he sat down beside Berta and massaged Berta's shoulder slowly.

"You tired?" Ask Pongki.

"No need to be so attentive, I want to sleep" said Berta ketus.

Pongki fell silent, then tried to smile.

"Good sleep. I want to go out first, I want to talk to the employees" Pongki said.

Berta flinkered, he closed his eyes and let Pongki go leaving himself in the room.

After Pongki left, Berta came back crying. I don't know what he's crying about, feeling disappointed? Feeling still in love but feeling betrayed? Or the feeling of confusion to make a decision what he will take for his marriage that has been running for more than a quarter century.

...

Geck! Geck! Geck!

There was a knock outside the door of Typhoon's room. The typhoon who had just finished bathing and getting dressed, immediately rushed to open the door of his room.

Pongki was standing in the doorway of his room with a smile that was so distinctive. Yes, a fatherly smile that is so authoritative.

"Sorry boss, I just finished my bath and haven't made coffee yet" Typhoon said.

"It's okay, I'm in yeah..."

"Please boss, I made the coffee first.."

Pongki smiled and nodded quickly.

The typhoon rushed out of his room and made coffee in the employee's kitchen. After that, he went back to his room and got Pongki who was pensive with a cigarette tucked in his finger.

"This is the boss's coffee, please drink it," said Typhoon.

Pongki nodded and smiled accepting the coffee glass.

"Hmmm, Jo, did you see Andrean? Did he say goodbye before he suddenly returned home?" Ask Pongki.

Deggg!

The heart of the Typhoon is beating fast. He did not expect Pongki to ask about Andrean to himself.

"No sir," said Cyclone.

Pongki frowned, he saw cuts on the corners of the lips and bruises on the temples of Typhoon.

"You why? Out of fight?" Ask Pongki.

"I-i-iya sir boss, I was attacked by unknown people while on campus non Bella. The man asked me for money and a car key. Yes, I fought with him, boss. I lost, and I was lucky that someone helped me around. So the guy just ran away, "Typhoon had to lie to Pongki.

"Well... really? How then?"

"Yes, how else boss, let it go, wong his people have also run away. The important thing is that my car keys, mobile phone and money are not this much, congratulations boss." Typhoon said with an awkward smile.

"Thank God.. What I'm confused about is Andrean's problem. He suddenly gave me permission, if he came home today, without saying goodbye before."

"What village is the boss?" Ask Typhoon, pretending to be innocent.

"Say, his sister died. But he'll be back in a week."

"Oh..." Typhoons can breathe freely. He knows, Andrean said that, because under the threat of his team.

"So, ma'am, what's the matter with you?" Ask Pongki.

Typhoon smiled, then he began to tell her about his conversation with Berta. That made Pongki feel the Typhoon was on his side.

"Smart you Jo!" Pongki exclaimed, after Typhoon recounted his conversation with Berta.

"Well, of course dong sir boss. I'm a man, I'm on the boss's side. Do not let me think strange mami kanjeng, I do not want boss sir and kanjeng mami live separately. Poor non Bella," said the Typhoon.

"Dine!! You are the best Jo!" Pongki smiled in satisfaction and patted Typhoon on the shoulder with a proud look.

"Let's not get a divorce, I'm afraid I can't keep an eye on you anymore" Inner Typhoon.
