My Choice of Woman

Episode 94

“I don't want to come with you, Mister!” Kinanti shook her head, she did not want to go with Naresh.

Naresh had run out of ways to persuade Kinanti to eat with him. He breathed his frustration. According to him, Kinanti is a woman who is not easily lulled by persuasion alone. Naresh had to rack his brains to find a way to keep Kinanti from rejecting his invitation.

“From last afternoon until tonight you haven't eaten, and I invited you here to eat together, I'm sure your stomach must be wrapped around hungry.”

Naresh's words have a point. From afternoon until tonight Kinanti had not eaten, she had felt pain in her heart. For a moment Kinanti thought about the man who invited her to eat. They met just a few hours ago.

“I want to eat, but not in a place like this, Mr.” Kinanti. He really does not like to eat in a luxurious and expensive place like this. Kinanti felt this was not her style.

“Lantas you want to eat where?” Naresh frowned. He did not think through the rejection from Kinanti. Just this time in his life he got a rejection directly from a woman, whereas Naresh took Kinanti to the most luxurious and most favorite restaurant in Milepolis City.

“There is one place where selling the most delicious noodles is once.” Kinanti's eyes sparkled, he had imagined how delicious the noodles would be.

Inevitably, Naresh agrees to Kinanti's desire to eat at her favorite noodle place. “Good, we'll leave now.” Naresh is already sitting in the steering wheel. He started the engine of this car and drove to Kinanti's favorite noodle place.

Kinanti exclaimed happily, she had slightly forgotten the fierce face of the man who was now beside her. He felt that this man called Naresh was a good person, at least that statement that was now lodged in Kinanti's mind. Now he directs Naresh to head to the center of the city opposite the city hall. Naresh followed him, knowing little about the city of Milepolis though not completely.

Finally Naresh and Kinanti arrived at their destination. Naresh was stunned when he got out of the car, he did not see the luxurious restaurant building or cafe he had imagined. But only the tent buildings of tarps and wheelbarrow are often called street vendors.

Kinanti smiled with a simple, perfunctory stall that was only open at night. Do not ask why, which is clear this shop has its own attraction for Kinanti. A very simple chicken noodle shop, but always crowded with customers. Don't ask about taste, you can guess how it feels. The smell that is smelled from the noodle soup that churns hot and puffs steam, and concoction of spices that are very delicious make saliva not stop dripping. Appetite to eat rose, because the aroma of the stall was out very strong.

Kinanti smiled towards Naresh who was still stunned without a sound. Kinanti believes this makes the expectations of Naresh a little amby. This is contrary to the reality. Now he thought over and over again, is the food here guaranteed?

“This is my favorite place, I'm sure you'll like it.” Without warning, Kinanti just clutched Naresh's wrist and invited him to get closer to the simple shop.

Like magic, Naresh stepped in with his outstretched hand. This woman clutching Naresh's hand was neither too strong nor too weak. Kinanti had already arrived at the wheelbarrow of the shop owner.

“Pak, chicken noodles double claw and a bunch of iced sweet tea,” Kinanti raised her hand and dedicated two standing fingers, index finger and middle finger. Kinanti then pulled Naresh to find a seat. Before long, they finally got a seat on the third row of tables.

“Master, this is the most delicious chicken noodle shop in the city,” Kinanti said enthusiastically. Unlike Naresh who is not used to eating with the state of this roadside stall.

Why is this woman even taking me to a place like this! How is the quality of the food. The soul of the village still exists. I have to teach her some things so she can be chosen by the Queen.

Naresh sighed. “Don't call me master, I don't like that call.”

“If I call you brother how? Brother Naresh?” Kinanti smiled, he showed her a row of teeth.

Naresh surprised.

Did I not hear wrong? This woman named Kinanti called me sister?

For the first time he felt the call again. It has been a long time since he held this office. It's been a long time. Naresh felt that something could not be explained, there was a sense that had long been heard.

***

“Namanaya Naresh Yori Alvarendra,” said the man he already considers a father.

“So I have a sister? Yea! I have a sister! His name is Brother Naresh!” said the little boy with excitement. He cheered like he had found the greatest gift of his life.

That night was the night Naresh got to know his other father's family. Naresh was only eight years old at the time. It's been a long time. That night, he was taken by his father to the main house. A very large house like a palace according to Naresh.

A week before that, his mother and sister-to-be died in a car accident while picking up the little Naresh who was at the maths tutoring place. His pregnant mother was forced to bring a car to pick herself up. That night was the worst night for little Naresh.

Grief in flashback. Little Naresh only lived with his mother in a house that was not magnificent, but quite comfortable. The man named father only visited him and his mother twice a week. When Little Naresh asked about the father who was not present every day the mother only replied that her father had another life. Maybe that time little Naresh didn't know what the answer meant.

After the little Naresh was brought in and lived in the magnificent main house, he only realized what his mother answered. True, the father has another life, a beautiful wife and a boy who is about five years old. And the fact that Naresh received was that he was the son of another mother in the family. No wonder why he was treated so badly without his father's knowledge.

According to the story she heard, her mother only married Siri to the man she called father. The legal marriage of the father only occurs to the wife who has power in this great main house. One thing that may be happy for Naresh is that he has a very cute little brother and never treats him like a stranger. He grew up with the little boy although all were distinguished by position.

When his little sister sleeps in a spacious room with a soft and luxurious mattress with his mother and father, Naresh must accept the fact that he sleeps in a cramped room of a former warehouse. It didn't matter to him, the important thing was that he could see his little brother grow up well. Because his little brother first called him brother.

***

Two glasses of sweet iced tea and two bowls of chicken double claw noodles with steaming delicious smoke were presented at the table that became the boundary between Naresh and Kinanti. It had been a long time since he had eaten in a roadside atmosphere like this. Naresh briefly glanced at Kinanti who was praying before eating and the hand that was already carrying chopsticks.

“Please eat!” Kinanti exclaimed enthusiastically.

Naresh just smiled at the behavior of the woman in front of him. He saw the woman was greedily sipping noodles from her chopsticks. Kinanti's instincts say that she is being noticed. Sure enough, Kinanti saw a smiling Naresh watching him eat chicken noodles.

“There's something wrong, Brother?”

Naresh stopped his act of looking at Kinanti. He hesitantly scoops the noodle sauce with the chicken dice and puts it in his mouth. He imagined the unpleasant taste. But after a mouthful of the sauce went into the taste, Naresh's eyes widened, unexpectedly the taste of noodle sauce and chicken pieces that look so delicious. Kinanti's statement about the taste of chicken noodles is indeed true.

Just as Naresh's appetite increased, he took the chopsticks and started sipping the noodles in the bowl. Every now and then he adds the sauce to a slightly more spicy flavor.

Kinanti knew, Naresh must have felt the pleasure in this bowl of chicken noodles.he was happy to see the man in front of him so greedily eating the noodles. Suddenly Kinanti wanted to ask Naresh's destination which made him have to surround almost the entire city.

“What is the purpose of Brother here? Is Brother Naresh heartbroken? Or left while being alas?”

“Can not eat do not chat first and ask unimportant things?!” Naresh was upset, even his frustration had reached the crown of his head. How not? He was busy eating this super delicious chicken noodle and was overwritten by that unimportant question.

“Sorry Brother, Kak Naresh finished ordering my taxi but has no destination,” replied Kinanti. Actually he was a little sorry why to question such a ridiculous thing like this.

Naresh sighed, he had to tell Kinanti the truth why she was in this City. “Actually I want to make you a candidate for someone who has the highest power.”

Kinanti frowned, she very much did not understand the intent of Naresh. Kinanti looked at Naresh who was now trying to pour soy sauce on the half-eaten chicken noodles. He asked for an explanation.

“Do you know about the elite family residing in Zen City? They are looking for a person who will accompany the Queen and it should be a young and unmarried woman.” After explaining that, Naresh then tasted the chicken noodle sauce that he had stirred with a little soy sauce.

“Then what does this have to do with me? Why did Naresh even say that to me? I don't understand.”

Naresh wanted to chop up noodles and eat them, but stopped because there was a question from Kinanti that he had to answer.

“I want you to be the candidate. And I tested you to drive that car. That's an added value for you. Don't ask me why I know this, Adnan told me about you. I hope you will follow this selection. Do not ask about income, there the salary is very large even you can get luxury facilities, and,” Naresh explained at length and it was time he put the chopsticks that had clamped some noodle strands ready to land in his mouth.

“Why should I? If I don't want to how? I don't know brother, you could be just a con man!” Kinanti squinted her eyes.

Naresh canceled putting his chopsticks full of noodles, he replied to a sentence from Kinanti, “We have just met, but never call me a fraud I am not that cool. I work for the King and the Queen, and I'm even trusted to find the Queen a companion. And the King himself, you sent me.”

Kinanti looked at the man in front of her was cool sipping noodles that had been delayed into the mouth. He thought the offer from the man was very attractive. According to Kinanti Zen City is located not so far from this city. And obviously, he really needed money to pay off all his father's debts.

Can this man be trusted? Can his words be held?

For a moment Kinanti pondered this.

“You can trust me completely. If you have any doubts about all my offers, you can ask Adnan.” Naresh finally finished his chicken noodles. He smiled satisfied because he felt delicacy despite eating on the side of the road.

Kinanti's eyes were wide open to hear the sentence that Naresh had just spoken.

How could he know my thoughts!

Naresh looked at Kinanti, he cleaned the area around his mouth with a tissue. Then he sipped the rest of the tea whose ice cubes had melted and now it was no longer sweet.

“Don't look at me like that, I'm sure you don't fully trust me yet.” Naresh smiled displaying a sweet arch to Kinanti.

“If you're done, let's go home. I'm sure you're very tired with today,”.

Eventually Kinanti ate the chicken noodles left in her bowl. Naresh paid for everything they had eaten. Then they finally went home to Adnan's driving course located in the Wholesale Market Area.

The location of the Wholesale Market is not too far away. Naresh who was driving finally stopped in front of the house which became a special driving place owned by Mr. Adnan. Naresh and Kinanti got out of the car together. Mr. Adnan was a little surprised by the presence of Naresh who was with Kinanti.

“Hay Nan! For today the deposit of the girl I will pay for it. Because I rented this cab almost overnight,” said Naresh.

Mr. Adnan nodded. Kinanti finally asked for permission to return home. Mr. Adnan nodded.

“A fun day! Tomorrow I'll make sure we meet again!” naresh exclaimed as Kinanti had walked far out of the courtyard where the khursus was driving.

She's a fun girl!
