Barnes gasped in shock as his phone suddenly rang very loudly. Barnes then put all the money that he had been holding into the bicycle basket belonging to the woman who was still crying so hard in front of him. Then without a word, Barnes ran away leaving the woman just like that while picking up the phone call that went into his phone.
Amanda took a deep breath to ease her cries. Amanda lifted her face and without realizing it, she continued to look at Barnes' back which was getting further and further away from her and then vanished from her sight. Somehow Amanda did not feel willing to leave the foreign man.
Amanda rubbed her face to remove the rest of her tears and gasped in shock as she saw there were some red banknotes in her bicycle basket. Amanda took the money and counted it, "Huh?! he just left this kind of money in my bike basket?" Amanda stared at the money as much as one million rupiah that had moved in her hand.
"It's almost noon and I have to go to the customers. Did I just replace their order milk with cash? Hmm, yes so let's finish the business quickly" Amanda then checked her bike and was grateful because the bike did not suffer any damage there were only a few abrasions on both knees. He began to grimace because, the wounds on both knees began to hurt, he immediately ignored the pain and rushed back on his bike pedal to the homes of fresh milk customers to compensate for their fresh milk orders with cash.
Barnes immediately pulled Leon into his car without intending to change his jogging suit because, Leon said on the phone earlier that Leon had found the Singgih Dirgantara address, Amanda's uncle. "Hurry up and do the car!" barnes orders Leon and Leon to press the gas pedal of Barnes' luxury car. Barnes rushed to the city of Bandung to pursue the whereabouts of Amanda and he forgot to say goodbye to his family.
Chery called Barnes' phone, "You're jogging in the middle of nowhere, huh? why hasn't he come home yet? Mama's got your favorite meat stew"
Barnes patted his forehead, "Oh my God! I'm so sorry, Barnes had an impromptu affair and forgot to say goodbye to Mama and everything. Barnes should go to Bandung as soon as possible"
"Huh? Why go to Bandung?" ask Chery.
"There's a secret mission, Ma" Barnes said.
"Oh that. Get tired! be careful on the way" Chery said.
"Ready Ma. Thanks" then Barnes turned off his phone and put his phone back in his jogging pants pocket.
Leon glanced at Barnes, "Master, haven't changed?"
"No chance. I'd like to see Amanda Dirgantara soon. I miss him so much" said Barnes with a face full of smiles and new hope.
"But sir, you're not ashamed to wear a jogging suit to meet the Lord's love? Don't you want to be different in front of a girl you haven't seen in a long time?"
"Ah shit! Yes, you are right, Yon. Emm, you brought my wallet, right? because the cash that I brought earlier I have given all to a careless and crybaby woman that I met earlier in the park" said Barnes while looking at Leon.
"Of course I never forget to bring your wallet. And who's that careless, whiny woman, sir?" leon asked with a glance at Barnes.
"Eitherway. I just met him for the first time and I don't think I'll ever see him again. If I ever see you again, I better avoid it. He's really careless. He almost hit me with his bike earlier and he's drained my pockets"
"Why do you give all your money to that woman?"
"Because, I was surprised to get a phone call from you and I spontaneously put all the money I held into the woman's bicycle basket" Barnes said.
"How much money did you leave in that lady's bicycle basket?"
"Eitherway. I didn't count it. I just took it from my cash wallet and I put it in my jogging bag this morning because, uh, I intend to stop by the meat and vegetable shopping at the traditional market after jogging for souvenir love to Mama who likes to cook but, all of them failed because of the woman" Barnes snorted annoyed
"You're also careless Sir and I see only this time you're acting recklessly" Leon said.
"Yes you're right. Just this time I was acting so recklessly because of that woman" Barnes again snorted in annoyance.
"Is it because that woman was so beautiful so, you were blown away and became careless, hehehehe?"
"Beautiful from where? He was coy, sloppy, and his hair was very cute, badly curly, dry, red and unkempt. Then, he was also very thin" Barnes said.
"But managed to divert your world right, Mister? hehehe"
Barnes patted Leon on the shoulder, "Directing what? in my heart and mind there's only one Amanda Dirgantara"
"Yeaaahhh, I pray you will soon meet Amanda and marry her. I feel sorry for Non Bryna. Non Bryna keeps waiting for you to find Amanda after that, then Non Bryna will get married" Leon said.
"Yeeaahh, my twin sister is stubborn. He shouldn't have to take such a stance. She's a woman, she can get married first but, Yeeaahh that's how Bryna is, if you have an opinion, it's hard to deflect. Stubborn man" said Barnes.
"You are the same, sir" said Leon.
"Hahahaha, yes you're right. That's what we have in common as twin brothers in addition to our really similar faces" Barnes said.
And so Barnes, who was stiff, cold, and always flat on his face, could only be relaxed, as he was and joking if, he was with his family and with Leon. Leon is his personal assistant who is most loyal and best suited to his personal Barnes.
"Yes you're right. But later if we have arrived in Bandung" said Barnes. "If there's a restaurant up ahead, we'll take a turn for breakfast, Yon!"
"Ready, Sir" said Leon.
Amanda could breathe a sigh of relief because, all the fresh milk customers she met understood Amanda's condition even some of the fresh milk customers refused to accept compensation in the form of money from Amanda.
Then Amanda went back to her boss, "Boss, my deposit.today" Amanda put two hundred thousand rupiahs on the table.
"okay! This is your honor today" The boss of the fresh milk shop owner gave thirty thousand rupiah to Amanda. Amanda took the money, thanked him and went back to the hostel
Amanda had indeed managed to escape from Omnya's house when she could hear the contents of her Tantenya head who wanted to sell it to a wealthy widower who owned a luxury nightclub in the city of Bandung. Amanda managed to run to Jakarta and thanks to the help of her former SD friends, she could live in a simple boarding room, could get odd jobs and live with enough to eat.
However, Amanda has not been completely free from the death snares of her Tantu. The aunt had received a considerable sum of money from the rich widower and the rich widower never stopped looking for Amanda. That's why Amanda worked hard to collect money to be able to go abroad, he said, far from the shadows of his Tantenya and far from the threat of the wealthy widower who is notoriously ruthless likes to sell his woman after he tasted her honey.
Barnes has changed clothes in a boutique and then a few hours later, he sits in front of Om and his aunt Amanda. Laura was there too. Laura continued to stare in amazement at Barnes and intended to make Barnes her man.
"Can I meet Amanda?" barnes asked after he confirmed that the man sitting before him was really Amanda Dirgantara's Omnya.
Singgih was about to open his voice however, losing quickly to his wife's spicy mouth, "Amanda has already left this house. Basic child does not know it is lucky. Nurtured, cared for and raised, uh dropped by"
Singgih could only sigh long and silent a thousand languages.
"Amanda is not that person" Barnes said. Barnes does not accept, there are people who demonize the adoration of his heart.
"He is like that. If you intend to propose to a girl in our family, just apply for my daughter! Her name is Laura, she's a communications student. Beautiful and graceful her son" said her Tante Amanda as she embraced the shoulder of her beloved single daughter.
Amanda kept looking at Barnes and said in her heart, He must be rich. The outfit was expensive, the fragrance oil seemed expensive, and the car.... Uh? If Laura can marry this man, I can definitely live a good life. Inner Tantenya Amanda.
Barnes began to grit his molars and said, "I just want to meet Amanda"
"Why are you ngeyel? Amanda is a very bad character and very stupid. He's just a high school graduate because, stupidly and unsuccessfully for any university entrance exam. That's why he left because he was ashamed. Unlike my Princess this is beautiful and graceful, right?" Amanda continues to embrace Laura's shoulder and continues to boast of her beloved child.
Laura continued to stare at Barnes shamelessly and continued to comment on her teasing smile to Barnes which made Barnes feel nauseous.
"You don't vilify Amanda! Because I'm sure Amanda doesn't like that" Barnes started to get upset.
"That's reality. I'm not making it up" said Mama Laura no less upset.
"Can I have a recent photo of Amanda? I will look for it" asked Barnes with a cold, flat face.
"Curtain! why do I keep a photo of that ugly and ill-natured girl. There are no pictures! one picture of Amanda, not in this house" her mother Laura said, folding her hands because she was upset. His attempt to thrust his daughter into Barnes did not get a promising response from Barnes.
"Alright then, excuse me" Barnes got up, immediately turned around and left just like leaving the Singgih Dirgantara family.
Laura chased after Barnes and with great confidence she held Barnes' wrist, "Don't go first! I'd like to get to know you more closely. Let's have lunch first? I know a good restaurant and ......."
Barnes said, "Let go of my hand!" without seeing Laura.
"I just......."
Barnes immediately pulled his hand and with a small run he rushed into the car, locked the car door and told Leon to gas. Laura stomped her feet on the ground because, Barnes just left her.
In the oncoming car, Barnes repeatedly let out a disappointed sigh, "Why should he stop by? Didn't his Omnya family treat him well?"
"I see it like that, sir. I saw that the Omnya Non Amanda was very depressed in her face and seemed to want to convey something to you but was afraid of his wife" Sahut
Leon.
"Yes you're right. The attitude and mannerisms of her Tantenya Amanda and her cousin Amanda made me feel nauseous. Where else should I look for him? he didn't appear on any social media and I don't know what his face looks like" Barnes let out a long sigh.
