My servant, Asha

Chapters. 8 Delicious instant noodles

Asha's routine activities are washing and drying clothes. It's a regular job but Asha likes it a lot. There is not much tension in this area. Probably because employers rarely come here except for Mrs Wardah.

"Mbak sometime I was invited out again yeah ...," said Rike. He rarely and almost never uses his curfew. It's a pity, but for Rike it doesn't matter. He who came from the village was not used to the hustle and bustle of the city. Since he was invited out last night, Rike so want to go for a walk again.

Moreover, Rike who only until elementary school graduates have worked here since the age of thirteen years. Now he's starting to move on to fifteen. Although entering this house is still young, he is a very diligent employee and does not mess around. His work was well done. That's why Mrs Wardah really likes Rike who is young and hardworking.

Although on leave to go home, Rike did not return home. The reason is because it is too crowded at home. There are many sisters, there are 3. He often sent money to his family.

That's why he dropped out of school. There is no cost to continue school. And lucky to work here to send his sisters.

Rike has also been able to renovate the house so it is more feasible. Initially only bamboo is now gedong.

"If you go out the same Mother Asha can certainly be the same Bik sumi," said Rike had imagined going for a walk again.

"Yes, we go out for a walk sometime. You want to meet a guy, okay?"

"No. Not." Rike panicked at asking that. Asha chuckles. Apparently Rike's a little plain about men. Then if Asha, what is the expert about men? Equally, Asha is also not an expert on men. He was once lied to.

At first the man approached like a man again. After Asha started to like a little, uh, the guy ran away. Displease. Asha smiled remembering the incident. Feeling stupid in lying is the same guy.

On the second floor. There are two rooms that have large windows. It was the Young Master's room and the other one belonged to the Young Miss who lived in the school dormitory. It's just that the window belonging to the young lady is not straight facing where Asha used to sunbathe.

Arga buttoned his shirt while staring out the window. There were noises coming from the clothesline. Arga approached while buttoning his shirt. When looking down there were two maids who were drying clothes while joking.

Him again. That strange woman. A good waiter who plays basketball. I feel like I've seen it from here. I did see him sunning there, but only at a glance and did not pay attention.

Look at how he looks like he's not from the village. Just wearing a shirt and knee-length pants he already looks fresh. Uh, fresh whatan. Maybe he's taken a bath so fresh. Yes, yes, it must be. And again he was wearing that tee shirt. He doesn't have another shirt.

Arga opened his confused eyes to his own thoughts.

Down there the fun-loving Asha felt noticed, then looked up. His eyeballs are wide.

Young Master! The danger! I was kidding Rike. This could be a reason for the dismissal.

Asha panic.

"Ke, don't joke anymore" Asha said with a reasonable attitude.

"Are you tired, joking?"

"No. There's a noble." Rike understands what Asha means but does not understand where the person is. Rike was looking around them.

"There is no such thing as mbak ..." Asha.

"above. In his room." Rike looked up. Dor's! Arga was still looking towards them.

"Waduh yes. Ma'am, let's sunbathe" said Rike immediately picked up the wet clothes from the basket and dried them a little hastily from nervousness.

So yeah. Looking at me, they look like ghosts. Substantial.

Arga went down to the first floor. Apparently Dad was already there.

"Good morning Dad ..."

"Morning. Let's have breakfast."

"Tumben you want breakfast, Ga.." Mother's amazed. Arga did not respond. Hendarto was silent.

"Your father was originally seneng if you had breakfast with gini, Ga." Mother glanced at Father. Arga noleh to Mommy.

"If you're at this table together, Dad gets excited about having a lot of conversations with his beloved son."

"Ehem." Dad dehem. Arga went to Dad too. He did not realize that it turned out that Father and Mother were the same. Because Dad is usually cooler than Mommy.

"Arga was moved" said Arga sarcas.

"What is the response, Arga .." said Mommy with a smile.

"Mother new waitress?"

"No." Mother thinks again. "Mother does add people, but not new. Been a long time. It's been seven months."

"What's in the laundry area?" ask Arga. Mother was silent while looking at Arga. Tumben this kid knows there's a new employee. Usually do not care. Maybe it doesn't matter, it's been seven months that the waiter's been there, but just found out.

"Yes" replied the mother. Hendarto's father also ate while looking at his son's face. Since the incident of 'it' Arga has slightly become colder his attitude. Hendarto did not make a fuss as long as he did not make a fuss at home or at the office. Also the same company focus.

"Last night I ate instant noodles" Arga said suddenly.

Mrs Wardah was astonished by Arga's hanging words. Bik Sumi who was on the kitchen table stiffened. What happened last night. It's what makes noodles, not him. Has Asha made a mistake?

"Why?" ask Mommy.

"Enak," replied Arga flatly while still chewing the food. Madame Wardah look at Bik Sumi again. Mean asking. What happened to the good noodles last night? Usually also every night ask for instant noodles but no positive response. Because it's become Arga's night routine. Like the night I nyemil noodles, that's.

Bik Sumi shrugged her shoulders not understanding. Because of the long time working here, Bik Sumi became familiar with the codes of Mrs Wardah without saying anything.

"Tumben said it was good. What does Bik Sumi make?" ask the Madam to Sumi Bik behind her.

"Your lady, last night it wasn't me who made it." Bik Sumi told.

"Lho, who?" Mrs Wardah's eyes blinked in shock.

"Asha," replied Sumi.

So her name is Asha. I forgot I ever knew that name.

"Because I was busy cleaning up in the upstairs room last night, I told Asha to make noodles for Young Master" continued Bik sumi. Mistress wardah frowned thinking. Then look at Arga. Lips smile.

"Means new performance for the officer. Can make Arga say good," said Mrs Wardah slightly mocked her son. Because usually Arga never commented anything about the food he ate. He rarely shows excessive happy emotions or excessive sadness except about the incident 'it'.

Arga did not react. He sipped his drink.

"Move him into the kitchen" said Hendarto, who also finished his breakfast.

"Good," timpal Arga flat. He stood up because he had finished his meal. And now it's time to go to work. Mrs Wardah smiled at Father and Arga. They both seem to have made a deal. Compact. Lady girang.

"OKAY. Okay. Because the vote is two people from 3 people so Asha will be moved to the kitchen here. Bik, if Asha's done her job tell me to."

"Good Mistress."
