Vivie hangs up her phone feeling anxious, hoping that her brother's co-worker can help find her mysterious sister-in-law. At least the man really should know the condition of his brother who is currently still lying in a coma.
"Morning, Ms. Vie," said Mr. Yanto who seemed alert to welcome the arrival of Vivie.
"Sir Yanto can go home first to rest," said Vivie.
"It's okay, Madam Vie," refused Mr. Yanto.
"Sir Yanto, it's Pak Yanto's turn again tonight" Vivie said.
Mr. Yanto scratched his head while looking down.
"Alright, Ma'am, then I go home first" said Mr. Yanto saying goodbye.
Vivie nodded then turned to Bian who was still asleep in the chair.
"Bi," Vivie patted gently on Bian's shoulder.
"Hmm, Vie," Bian woke up and yawned wide.
The man rubbed his face, still feeling dizzy.
"Bi, you rest at home, yes, I'll call you an online taxi for a while" Vivie said.
"Kok you've come, Vie?" ask Bian in astonishment.
"It's okay, Bi, I can't sleep well at home, so I come here first, and mom and dad will follow" Vivie replied.
Bian glanced at his watch.
"I seem to have to go to the office, Vie, there's still business" Bian said.
"Bi, do I need to ask your office for permission?" ask Vivie.
"It's okay, Vie, I can go in a bit during the day, which is important to be present," replied Bian.
Vivie reviewed her smile seeing Bian grinning.
"My husband is an exemplary employee. You should've been appointed manager, "Vivie was spoiled in Bian's arms.

Vedra sat quietly behind her desk. It's past noon and he's still pecking. He can't even concentrate when he's working.
Her shock had not gone away after hearing the news that Verda had an accident.
This must be a lie! It's lies!
Last night they even still met and got into a fight.
Is this just Verda's wits to just get his attention?
Is this just Verda's play?
The question sprang up in Vedra's mind. Vedra looked at her smart device, seeing the many missed calls from Verda that made her tremble. It presses the call button which is then instantly answered by the mobile operator.
"The number you're going to is off or out of reach, try a few more moments."
Tut's.. Tut's..
"The number you're going to..."
Vedra ends her phone calls, opens the messaging app, and opens Verda contacts.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Verda was last on the move.
Verda, tell me that you're just sulking like always! Inner fidgets.
Lying, there's no way Verda's been in an accident!
"Ved!"
Vedra gasped in shock at seeing Teti who was already standing in front of her desk.
"Ved, I got a call from the central HR, it's been two days Verda did not enter work without information, tomorrow if he is still not entered without information will be considered resigned," said Teti.
"Didn't you get any info on where Verda is going?" ask Teti.
Vedra felt her throat choking, her lips suddenly twitching to say something she herself was not sure of.
"I'll find out" Vedra replied.
"Well, you have to find out, you are in charge of all Valid employees of this branch" said Teti.
"Hm, yes, it is my responsibility" Vedra said.
Vedra breathed a heavy sigh.
Right now his mind is completely muddled. Free half a day he tried to focus his mind for the sake of his work.
But as soon as his gaze was shifted on Verda's empty desk, his heart seemed to slip. Half a day wondered where the owner of the workbench filled with photos of Jehun polaroid, to the stickers that filled the cubicle wall.
...*****...
The clock was five o'clock in the afternoon, one by one employees left their desks. Vedra was the last person to leave Valid corp.
His heart rumbled along with his steps down the parking area towards his car.
He drove the car to Verda's parents' house. He certainly can not immediately believe the phone early in the morning which could be a prankster act.
He had to make sure that Verda might be in the mansion. Who knows if it turns out that Verda is currently in her room, dancing accompanied by Fancy songs that blur like the woman usually does.
Arriving at Verda's parents' residence, Vedra immediately got out of the car.
He pressed the bell outside the gate. He waited until the middle-aged woman called Bi Sri ran to open the gate.
"Good afternoon, Bi Sri," said Vedra.
Bi Sri frowned when she saw the figure of a man who was very foreign to her.
"Who are you looking for?" tanya Bi Sri's.
"Is Verda home?" ask Vedra.
"'Who is this, looking for Miss Verda?" Bi Sri asked back.
Vedra realized that his appearance must not be recognized by Bi Sri because he did not dress up in the style of Jehun.
"I'm a friend of Verda's office" Vedra replied briefly.
"Oh, office friends, look, Ms. Ver had a traffic accident last night, is now in a coma, until now has not been aware, said Mr. Yanto," Bi Sri cerocos.
Vedra felt his body suddenly limp hearing Bi Sri's cerocosan.
He really can't believe all this.
It's bullshit! This is impossible!
"Bi Sri, well, thank you, I go first," Vedra said farewell.
"Yes, Mas" said Bi Sri.
Bi Sri was stunned, suddenly the middle-aged woman suddenly realized something.
"Lho, I know my name, right? We have no acquaintance?" Bi Sri monologue.
Vedra entered his car, still unable to believe what he was hearing before seeing with his own eyes.
He immediately drove his car to the hospital according to Vivie's information.
Arriving at the hospital, he rushed to the information table, approaching the guard officers.
"Good afternoon, I'm looking for a patient on behalf of Verdanica" Vedra said.
"Verdanica," repeated the officer.
"Yes, Verdanica," said Vedra.
"Verdanica is currently still in the ICU room" the officer said.
Degs...
The heart of Vedra stops beating. His mind was empty.
Verda's smiles, jokes, and laughter swirled around in her mind quickly and were replaced by Verda's anger, cries, and tears.
Verdas!
Vedra immediately ran in search of the ICU room.
This must be a lie, right?!
No, Verda! Nah!
Vedra's steps came to a halt in front of the ICU room. His eyes immediately caught the Verda family gathered in front of the room. Miss Eva and Vivie who cried while embracing, Bian who looks to calm Bu Eva and Vivie, then Mr. Daus who now directs his gaze towards her.
