Melody Love Aqila

chapter 13 Looking for Rupiah

All passengers disembarked from the bus upon arrival except Shinta and her children. Shinta seemed hesitant about the purpose she was going to take, then she decided to meet her brother, meeting to be in touch not to be a burden.

After a few years of not meeting, somehow things are now. Is your brother and family okay? is he still angry with me?

Shinta's feelings are mixed, but her happiness is greater so that creating a smile on her face, her longing will soon be healed. He immediately took his luggage and then moved while holding his baby and holding Aqila. They boarded the City transport twice and then moved to the bajaj vehicle. There was a sense of anxiety when he reached the front of his brother's house, he strengthened his heart for a moment, asking the bajaj driver to wait for him for a while and then approached the security guard

"Sorry, can I meet Mr Rudi Hadiwijaya?" said Shinta to the security guard who was busy drinking his coffee

"Mother is wrong address, this is the residence of Mr. Sumitro Wibowo" said Satpam

"ahhhhh.. " Shinta was surprised, her eyes wide open

"How long has it been changing owners?" ask Shinta

"If it's a problem, I don't know because I've only been stationed here for six months" replied the security guard

Shinta was glued for a while, then returned in bajaj. He thought his older brother might now be occupying his parents' home, which had been vacant after the deaths of his parents.

Bajaj also drove according to Shinta's direction. After arriving, Shinta was surprised because her parents' house looked different, more beautiful, luxurious and classy. He approached the security officer

"Sorry, does Rudi Hadiwijaya live here?" Ask Shinta

"No, This is Mr. Brian's House" replied the Security Guard

Shinta went back into the bajaj lethargic, there was a sense of resentment in her heart. He asked the bajaj driver to find a boarding house or rent a cheap house. After going around here and there finally got a narrow and shabby room, even then at a high price. There is a sense of dissatisfaction with Shinta when doing a contract but he was not able to find anymore. They collapsed asleep in a room that was still very dirty due to exhaustion.

The next day Shinta and Aqila were busy cleaning the room and arranging their belongings. Shinta is friendly so it is not difficult to mingle with her neighbors, she is looking for information about the location of the school for Aqila and the market for her to shop.

Shinta started his business by selling nasi uduk and some fried foods, for one week his business lost because of lack of buyers, then after many buyers were still losing money because many were in debt without paying, and then the buyer was still losing money, he finally did not continue his efforts.

He went around several houses to offer his services as a domestic assistant. After getting tired of being rejected, there was a mother who accepted it. She was very happy and grateful, her smile emanating from her face. His employer's house was two kilometers from where he lived, he was only in charge of cleaning the house and ironing, working time from eight in the morning to twelve in the afternoon.

Shinta works very enterprising and deft so that the homeowner is satisfied, Shinta was recommended by the hostess to her brother's house which is not far from where she works. The hostess' brother was also satisfied with the way Shinta worked.
