My Father is Not a Criminal

Chapter 30

That morning, Rara searches for Dessy to her class, 10MIPA1, to return the money she borrowed yesterday to pay for snacks. Dessy has not arrived yet, but there is Nabila who is cool reading novels on his phone.

"Hay, Deck. What was your name yesterday, how did I forget?" greet Rara.

"Eh, Brother, my name is Nabila. Can I help you, brother?"

"I just want to return your friend's money yesterday, he said to pay SPP, today will be the last."

"Oh that's it, but Dessy hasn't come yet, brother. Maybe in a minute, what to wait for?"

"Well, I'll wait, the bell's still a long time, can't it?"

Nabila shifts Dessy's bench, so that Rara can sit there, "please, sister!"

"If you're not mistaken, you're Rio's ex, Dek?"

"Not really, sister, just a friend."

Nabila deliberately dodged, so that he was no longer related to Rio.

"Then anyway? How can I not believe it?"

"Yes logic alone, brother, the pantes I'm dating Kak Rio who is the chairman of OSIS? I'm an ordinary girl, ntar even said not to be self-conscious," replied Nabila while laughing.

"But, I often see you being piggybacked by Rio you know."

"Oh, that's because I'm the same guy as him, brother. Our house is unidirectional, it's a tally of sniffling."

"Ma-"

"For everyone, you have a brother!" greet Dessy.

"Oh yes, Dek. I want to return your money yesterday, thank you. If there's no you, I'm ashamed of you."

"Sama-sama, Brother. It just so happens that I haven't paid SPP yet, so Big Brother is just lucky."

"But you just want to pinjemin to me, even though we don't know it yet, it already indicates that you're a good person."

"Not really, Brother. Yesterday I was just pissed off by Rio, he's so arrogant."

"His name is also cute guy, tajir, pinter, OSIS chairman as well, Dek. It's only natural that he has an arrogant nature, it's as usual as that," Rara still justifies Rio's actions.

"But it can't be, brother. Our mediocre students should adore him? Is he a god?"

Dessy turns to dislike Rio, ever since that guy let Nabila down. And the guy's nature has also changed drastically since then, making Dessy even more resentful of him.

"See, Deck. I also just found out yesterday, if it turns out Rio has such a nature. The feeling before him was not so. He's friendly and kind to everyone, don't hesitate to help a friend in need either."

"I don't know, brother, I've never been close to him. But my friend there are those who wash with him, yes I don't think about it, how can you like that."

Dessy glanced at Nabila who had been silent, like she did not want her ex-boyfriend to be the subject.

"A lot of girls are so cute to Rio..."

"Including Brother is also like that."

Dessy can't hide her frustration, accidentally cutting off Rara's comment. Rara could only sigh, as it was heartless to argue with Dessy, the underclassman who had helped her.

"I'm going to class first, Dek, I want the bell in. Thanks for the help of you both."

Without waiting for an answer from Dessy and Nabila, Rara left their class. The rest of the class looked at them with astonished eyes, but were reluctant to ask.

In the midst of despair, Rika remembers Dika, a close friend of Sueb, who had helped her a lot when Sueb died.

"Why did I just think about calling Mas Dika, huh? She's gonna help me, but I'm her best friend's wife, right?"

Rika patted her eel, then immediately looked for Dika's number in her cell phone contact. The woman was relieved, it turned out that she still kept Dika's number.

"Hallo, who is this?"

"Ap...Is this Mas Dika's number, Ma'am?"

"Well, if you know who this is?"

"I'm Rika, Ma'am, his wife Bang Sueb, his friend Mas Dika."

"Oh, Madam Rica. What's up, Ma'am?"

"Gi.gini, Ma'am, I actually want to ask for help with Mas Dika. I am unemployed, since Bang Sueb died, sa.. I have no job, Ma'am."

"What kind of job does Rika want? I mean, what areas are mastered, who knows I can help."

"That's it, Ma'am, I don't have any special skills. School was only finished Junior High, so I was confused about what job to do."

Rika acted sad, so that Dika's wife would help her get a job, any work, as long as she could eat, fortunately could make a contract as well.

"I asked first Mas Dika yes, Ma'am. He's still in the workshop, this is his phone left at home, just want me to drop off, I'll call you again."

"Yes, Mother. Thanks, I care about me."

"Together, Mother. I'll tell Mas to call Rika's mother."

Rika closed the call, and smiled happily. The woman was very sure, Dika and his wife would give him a job.

"Hadeh, let me bego, why not think for the benefit of them just from the first. Even I saw the Rojali kampret, it was clear he was a husband who was afraid of wives. Basic Rica, so people are really bego."

Rika was still nagging her reflection in the mirror, when her phone rang, a sign of a call coming in.

"Hallo," said Rika.

"Hallo, Madam Rika, this is my wife Willa Dika. I have discussed with my husband, and found an agreement. We would like to offer, what if Ms. Rika works at our house, helping me take care of Tasya.*

" I mean, so that's a baby sitter, huh, Mommy?"

"Yes that kind of thing, anyway. Tasya has grown up, this year has entered Elementary School, so the task of Mbak Rika yes pick up Tasya school as well."

"Yes, Mother. I really want to do that kind of work.*

Rika was very happy, Dika's family wanted to give her a job, the woman also hoped, would be able to stay in their house, so no longer need to pay the rent.

"Alright if Rika has agreed, you can work from tomorrow."

"Yes, Linda, I'm ready. What about my working hours?"

"Bak Rika should be at home before six in the morning, because she has to prepare Tasya school. Five o'clock in the afternoon you can go home, but it can be faster too. If Mas Dika has come home from the workshop, Mbak Rika can already go home."

"Well, I totally agree with his hours. Salary problem, I accept whatever it is, just enough to pay the rent and eat."

"For that, tomorrow we negotiate yes, Ma'am."

Someone was stirred to call Winda across the street, and Vinda immediately said goodbye to Rika. Rika smiled, a very terrible smile, because Rika harbored ill will on Winda and her family.
