Miss of Sunday

Don Juan

Sunday stands in front of a plasma screen in the lobby. Today the screen shows a view of the blue sea with a beach that has white sand. Sunday was interested to linger looking at him. The view is very calming. It feels like Sunday is there. Wide-brimmed, black-eyed, walking by the beach with occasional small waves touching his feet on the warm white sand. The sound of the waves pounding and the seagull squealing softly in his ears.

True said Gina, whatever you want to work, in time someone must need a vacation. Need to refresh your mind.

What was like this was also what Gina felt at that time. Missing time and wanting to quit the routine. But I ruined all his romantic getaway plans with Faris. I'm a really bad friend. Sunday bowed his head and turned his body around.

"Bruk." Sunday hit someone behind him. He looked up at the tall man in front of him.

"Sorry..." Sunday looked down apologetically and looked up at the face of the person he hit.

"Oh you." Lirih.

"What are you thinking?" Ask Faris who had been watching Sunday from behind.

"Nothing." Sunday had not dared to look at Faris to avoid eye contact with him so as not to be seen he was lying.

"You want a vacation?"

"No. No. I'm not thinking that." Sunday lying.

"Cocoa Island, Maldives. Let's go there sometime." Faris. Sunday opened his eyes.

"I took that photo while leaning there." Sunday nodded in understanding that the image was the result of Faris' camera shot.

"In Indonesia there are also beaches that are no less beautiful."

"Where?"

"Selong Balanak Beach in Lombok. White sand and has calm waves. It is suitable for relaxing the body and mind. It's just to get there the terrain is not so good. The winding road and the ravines are his challenge."

"You ever been there?" Tanya plain sunday.

"I wouldn't tell you if I just saw it on tv." Faris held back a laugh.

"Or maybe we should go to Santorini someday."

"For what?" Sunday knitted his eyebrows.

"For the honeymoon."

"Ah, yes.in your dreams only." Sunday sneered and left Faris and followed him. The lobby this morning was crowded. There were so many people that they didn't stand out from having that conversation.

Sunday entered the elevator followed by Faris, then there were some people entering as well. Most of them said hello to Faris. Because entering first, Sunday stuck to the end of the elevator. Sunday stood still almost clinging to the elevator wall. Suddenly he felt someone touch his finger. Sunday looked down to make sure. Then he looked at Faris who was smiling straightly not even glancing at him at all. Sunday's heart is beating above normal. He tried to take it off because he was worried that other employees saw it but Faris was too strong to hold his fingers. Up to the 4th floor, Faris finally let go of his grasp and let Sunday out of the elevator and behave like nothing happened. Before the elevator doors closed, Sunday turned to Faris. Naughtily Faris squinted one eye while showing off her grin. Sunday glared at him before the elevator door closed.

"He was like Don Juan. Really did..." Sunday closed his eyes thinking the right word for Faris' attitude towards him just now.

"It's so good to make my heart beat." Sunday held his chest which still had the rest of the debaran above normal.

Sunday entering the workspace was greeted by Lita.

"You know what, Gina's in the hospital."

"Oh yeah?" Sunday put the bag on his desk and pretended not to know and did not ask much. He is afraid of being bored when he talks too much.

"Yes. After work let's go see him."

"All right." Then Gina went back to her desk.

🌸🌸🌸

As agreed, this afternoon Sunday and Lita visited Gina. Although not one division but Lita also has concern for Gina because they are often together.

"Do you know where Gina was treated in the hospital?"

"My friend in the staffing division told me. He knows we're together often." Sunday nodded in understanding.

Their taxi stopped right at the hospital entrance. They got off and headed to Gina's room based on information from Lita's friend. Sunday did not know anything.

Arriving at the door of Gina's room, Lita knocked on the door. A man's voice sounded welcome. Right Sunday's guess, it was Faris' voice. As soon as the door opened, Faris was feeding Gina. Sunday suddenly had a bad mood. It was so bad that there was a storm on his chest. But as much as possible he behaved normally and did not look at Faris in the slightest. Lita once greeted Faris as her boss.

"Hey you guys. Why bother coming? I'm fine and just exhausted." Gina put on her smile as sweet as possible even though her face still looked pale. Faris was still painstakingly bribing him. Sunday was really sultry to see Faris' relaxed attitude as if he did not exist.

"I think you're very healthy and will never get sick. But it turns out you can still get sick too." Lita spoke rather awkwardly and uncharacteristically because there was Faris there.

"You're this, I'm human, not a robot." Gina smiled widely and this time refused Faris' bribe.

"Sunday, why are you quiet?" Gina looked at Sunday who did not say much.

"Ahh, yes I'm having thrush. So hurt. It makes me lazy to move my lips. It hurts so much." Sunday feigns pain while speaking. He had a glance at Faris who was still indifferent to their conversation.

"Design has been completed if Lita and Boby have started working on the program." Lita nodded.

"So, what programming language does Boby use?"

"Our agreement during our meeting was quite delphi because it was very simple." Answer Lita.

"Goodoo. I'm waiting for the results."

"Yes, sir." Timpal Lita again. Sunday was silent again. His heart felt as big as a mountain and it made it hard to simply answer Faris.

"It looks like I have to study computer science as well. Seeing you guys talk about it I feel the dumbest among you."

"You're good at business management because that's your part. Already, don't be too good at many things, I'll be envious." Lita Timpal. Gina smiled a little.

"But taking a programming course seems like a good one. Who knows I could switch divisions to your team."

"Well, good idea. It must be easy for you to do that." Sunday began to talk.

"Yes, of course. If I'm good at programming, can I move to the Sunday team?" Gina looked towards Faris who was sitting on the chair near her bed.

"We'll see how good you are." Faris gave Gina a smile. See the Sunday kebat kebit.

"In that case, at least I can start learning from you guys."

"with me. You can study with me." Sunday hastily offered.

"You?" Gina rounded her eyeballs.

"Yes, we can learn together. We're together so many more opportunities if you study with me. Besides, our team has a lot of simple projects so it's easier for you to learn."

"alright. Thank you, Sunday. You're a good one. It's lucky whoever's your girlfriend."

"That's how." Sunday smile.

"Your boyfriend back then, right?" Lita's shoulder Sunday.

"Which one?"

"Who was waiting for you in front of Font that time." Lita clarifies.

"Oh him. Do you think she fits in with me?" Sunday suddenly had an idea not to dodge.

"See from afar he's quite handsome. I guess up close it's gonna be even more handsome." Praise Lita.

Sunday had glanced at Faris and there was already a glint in the corner of his eye when he stole a glance at him.

"He's that handsome. Your eyesight is very sharp, Ta." Praise Sunday by showing off his grin to Faris.

"Surely he's so nice that he'll pick you up after work." Timpal Gina peppering. He knew Faris was starting to burn. Seeing Sunday heat up, Gina makes herself gasoline ready to flutter Faris until it explodes. It's a good opportunity for him. Sunday became aware of the fruits of his actions. He regretted doing that in front of Gina. But then he didn't care.

"Yes, that's it." Sunday still remained with his big smile.

"Lucky enough..." Added Gina.

"But I've told you he's just my friend." Said Sunday to Gina as if to tell that Gina already knew that and the sentence was only to heat up Faris.

"Oh yeah, I forgot." Then Gina laughed stiffly.

"Ehh, I'm going to the bathroom. Can you help me?" Gina looked at Faris. Faris frowned.

"Let me help. Looks like your fellow ladies will be more comfortable for you." Sunday offers to help before Faris feels sorry for Gina and helps her.

"Yes fine." Gina had no reason to refuse Sunday's aid. He helps Gina get out of bed, supports her body and brings her the infusion. After a while in the bathroom, Sunday and Gina return. He grabbed Gina and led her up to the bed.

"Yes, it's almost night. We better go home, Ta." Take Sunday who was lazy once there between Faris and Gina.

"Oh right. Then, we'll excuse you." After saying good-bye, the two of them came out of Gina's room.

Sunday's heart bruised it felt to see their closeness. There was herself Gina all that money to Faris, especially when they were alone. He went down the hospital corridor and walked along with Lita. But they split up when Lita took a taxi. Sunday still had to wait for the taxi. Lita's house and the boarding house are different directions so they can not go home together.

"Why have I been so healthy lately. My immune system is strong too. I haven't had the flu in a long time." Sunday is jealous of Gina being treated well by Faris. Given that Gina could be spoiled to Faris like that Sunday was really envious.

A taxi stopped in front of Sunday. Then he went up into it. A message came to his phone when the taxi just left.

Faris, I'll wait for you at home

Waiting for him at home? Now he's even still there. Stupid timing. It seems to rule. I work for the IGD, which has to be its employee for 24 hours. Batin Sunday's. Then he put his phone back in without wanting to reply. His heart was still tight considering Faris and Gina were alone there. He repeatedly took a long breath.
