My Father is Not a Criminal

Chapter 12

Sueb seemed to be walking hastily towards the computer workshop where he works now. Sueb was already an hour late from the working hours he had agreed with Dika, the owner of the workshop.

"Sorry, Bro! I'm late."

Dika turned a glance at his colleague, then concentrated back on the laptop that was being serviced.

"Udah breakfast? If not, ask for it, at the front stall!"

Sueb started cleaning the workshop, the laptop that was finished being serviced, he put it on the shelf that had been provided.

"Udah, I was from the house of in-laws, so I had breakfast there."

Sueb's home-in-law is located far from the workshop, no wonder if Sueb is late, because he is on foot.

"How's your wife doing?"

"That's, Bro. My wife wants to go back home, if I buy her a new robe. A bling-bling like an artist says that, I forgot his name."

"Yes, buy it. Than your wife keeps sulking, don't want to go home? Tar you ain't nothing masakin."

"Where's the money trying? Do you want to give me a bon?"

Dika sighed, the income of the computer workshop that he managed the results was not much. Therefore, he and Sueb always do the action. Shamed if his wife knows, that his work is less than his wife's income as a midwife.

"Not to love, bro. You know for yourself, how much the workshop earns. I'm ashamed, just a little love for my wife. Lately anyway, I've always been the reason that the workshop is quiet."

"If so, we'll act again yuk, Bro!"

"Ogah, I want to repent. I told you, if you want to act again, try to find a new partner. I won't act again, no matter what. I'm already deterred."

"How serious? My wife will protest if I give you shopping money only from the workshop."

"Okay, I'm confused too."

The two fell silent, seemingly focused on their respective jobs, but their minds were no longer there.

"Yuk, Bro! We're in action again!" sueb said after a long time they fell silent.

"Sorry, Bro. Just find another partner, I don't want to act anymore."

"Is it because our actions have made your neighbor prisoner, so you don't want to act?"

"Udah often I say, it's just one reason, actually there are many other reasons. You never thought, if we were the victims, not the perpetrators."

Sueb seemed stunned to hear Dika's words. You can imagine that he was the victim. Find her hard money as she now feels, then be forcibly taken by someone unknown. Maybe he will also fight like some of his victims, then due to the resistance he suddenly became disabled for life, it is inconceivable.

"So what's it gonna be, bro? What can I do to meet my wife's needs?"

"Okay, I don't know either. I'm ashamed too, Bro. Because my wife's income is much bigger than mine. Even though he never asked me to give more, as a man I felt inferior."

"So that's the reason why you wanted to, when I first got into action?"

Dika nodded. One of the reasons Dika did the action, indeed to show, he could have more income from his wife.

A girl who came out of a luxury car, seemed to walk towards the workshop Dika.

"August, Ma'am. Can I help you?" greet Dika.

"Oh, I want to fix the laptop, Om."

"Why the laptop, Ma'am?"

"Inadvertently hit the water, it's an error. About a long time no, Om, the end?"

"Well, let me check first?"

The girl gave Dika the laptop.

"Yes, Om. There's a lecture assignment to collect tomorrow. Please yes, Om, can it be done later in the afternoon?"

"Can, Ma'am. Take it around 3 o'clock, it'll be too late."

"Alright, Om. Later I come again, if it's a little late, please wait, it takes a lot!"

"All right, Ma'am."

The girl immediately left Dika's workshop, as soon as her business was done. In a hurry, the girl accidentally dropped her wallet.

"The girl's purse, bro."

Sueb showed me the wallet he accidentally found.

"Here, let me give it back later if he comes back."

Sueb checked the contents of the wallet, his eyes slightly widened looking at the red sheet quite a lot which made the wallet look fat.

"Bro, if it's for me, can it? Looks like that chick's a rich kid, that's a fancy car and a chauffeur."

Dika sighed, actually Dika was not a good person either, he also knew the girl was a rich person, but he felt guilty letting Sueb take money from the wallet he found.

"Actually, I don't agree anyway, you took the money, but...."

"It's funny, not acting like usual. Don't feel guilty about it!"

"It's up to you then, but the cards and letters can you send in the mail? Kasian if he also has to take care of it all!"

"Well, that's called a friend."

Dika just shook his head and returned to focus on making repairs to the laptop in his hand. So that later afternoon can be taken by the owner.

Sueb took all the money from the wallet, wrapped the wallet and the letters inside neatly. And write the address listed on the ID card as the recipient. He will send the wallet through the expedition with a special lightning package, so he can quickly arrive.

Sueb could return to work happily, already imagined in his eyes, his beautiful wife would return home, because he managed to buy the expensive robe that his wife wanted.

*****

Nabila arrived at school with a smile on her lips. Still imagined in his imagination, Rio declared his love. Starting Sunday, the two of them are officially dating.

"Duh, he seemed very happy, Neng."

"He em nih, Dess. I'm so happy today" said Nabila with a smile.

"Hem, I guess, this must be because of Brother Rio."

"How do you know, Dess?"

"Just guess who else can make a Nabila happy like this, if not Kak Rio."

Nabila's cheeks heat up hearing the word Dessy. So far Nabila has never felt in love, only this time he felt that feeling. Falling in love can make people happy.

"Congratulations, Bill. I hope you two can last until married."

"What the hell are you, Dess? Just entered High School, and talked about being married," said Bila shy.

"Good prayer, amenin only time."

"Yes, amen."

"Well, that's dong. Don't forget, give PJ!'

" Yes, Onion."

The two girls could not continue the conversation, the teacher who taught the first hour, had already entered the classroom.
