"What do you mean, Ga?" mrs Wardah asked in surprise and surprise.
"Does Mother do anything before we engage?" Arga started asking for trouble in those days. About the thing that caused his engagement with Chelsea to fail.
Arga has never discussed anything about it. Arga seems to bury himself in the heart. Even though he seems to want to reveal it. Arga chose silence.
Until this speaker sticking again to the surface, making Mrs Wardah jerked in shock.
Mrs Wardah corrected her way of sitting. The conversation started seriously. Mrs Wardah took a sip of water from the glass next to her first before starting to talk. "really. Just a short talk," said Mrs Wardah without evading. "You want to know what Mother talked about with that woman?" ask Mrs Wardah ready to answer and tell stories.
"No" answered Arga smiling. It's confusing Mrs Wardah. Arga asked, now that he was ready to tell a story, why was his son not even interested? "I don't need to hear Mother's story about it. I'm it's okay. I don't care about any of that anymore. Mother has answered, I'm relieved." The lady still doesn't understand. "I'm sure, no matter what the talk, Mother did it because she didn't want to see me suffer or be sad or anything like that. Mother must have done it because she wanted to make me happy," continued Arga relieved. After drinking water, Arga stood up, his legs turned towards the round and kissed Mother's cheek. "thank you. So let me take Asha. I'm done eating. Thank you for making food," said Arga who completed the meal and this long conversation simultaneously.
"Well be well," Madame Wardah was surprised by the sweet treatment of her son who had not been acting like today. Bik Sumi who was washing the furniture was also surprised. "He's why, Bi?"ask Mrs Wardah in amazement. "I can't say any more words. It's beautiful, surprising, also surprising." Bik Inah smiled to see her master was confused because of the sweet treatment of her son.

Around 10 Asha left with Arga for the office. Asha was silent and asked nothing about the plan made by Arga and Rendra. After entering the lowest floor area, Arga did not immediately go to his room, but turned on the outlet area. Where many boutiques from famous brands are there.
"You like this outlet?" ask Arga.
"Emmm .. likes. What's the connection with me?" ask Asha astonished.
"You'll keep this boutique for a while as long as your parents come. The owner of this boutique agreed to accept you for only a few hours. Their employees will help you."
"A-I'm pretending to work here?"
"Don't you say you want to show me that you work for this Mall? This boutique is very famous that allows you to get a decent salary to match your income. So this role also fits with what you told me." Asha listened to Arga's plan well. Rendra was there to inform her again about Asha being their employee.
Asha had to lie again. Why not be honest? Sometimes being honest is the hardest choice to make even if it's for the good, because every human being has different fears in his life. One by one people will have unequal fear of themselves.
Sorry Asha can't be honest...
The work uniforms in these boutiques are more like bank employees. Wear a coat and short skirt below the knee. With black subordinates and suits with a combination of red lines.
As per what was talked about yesterday on the phone, Mr. Asha called on his mobile phone.
Asha's permission to go out to one of the employees to see his father. "Where is my father?" ask Asha when she receives the call. Chief Asha look right and left.
"At the entrance. Which side are you on, Nduk?" ask him in a heavy voice as usual.
"Surely follow the path. I will approach ... Ah, I can see you passing by. You walk straight and you will meet Asha" Asha said. From the boutique where Asha stood she could see her Father's way. Still wearing government office brown safari uniforms.
"If your parents have come, call me" Arga said as she left Asha at the boutique. But Asha knew what to do. He didn't have to tell Arga for that. This is her chance not to tell you about Arga. Let him do this lie alone.
"Finally you can see the daughter of the Father who is diligent," praise you sincerely. Asha shook his hand and kissed the back of his hand. "So you work here, Nduk?"
"Yes, sir."
"This mall is big ... So lookee. Mr. Seneng see you can work in a place like this," said Mr. Proud that makes Asha full. In Asha's heart screamed for lying to you.
Forgive Asha, Sir ....
"Good day, sir .." said Arga who appeared unexpectedly. Asha's eyes bought to see this man appear. He's not with Rendra. Arga appears in front of the boutique alone.
How did he know that my father had come? Chief Asha looked up. I forgot, there's a cctv up there. Surely Rendra was spying on me there.
The plan obscured the arrival of the Father from Arga, failing.
"Good afternoon. Who are you?" ask you politely while looking at the high Arga, then change to move to Asha who slightly lowered his head. Feeling caught that he will hide the arrival of the Father.
"I'm Arga. Director of this company. I'm the boss of your daughter .." said Arga immediately introduced himself, because Mr. Asha was confused to see his arrival.
"Oh ... Asha's boss, after all," said the father smiling as he lowered his head in salute.
"Mother doesn't have to salute me. That's not necessary. I'm the one who should pay respect to you," Arga refused to respect his beloved father. Then he lowered his head in respect.
Asha was speechless while looking at Arga's tall body bowed respectfully. There was a sense of having to look at the person who was at a higher level than him, bowing his head for his sake. Asha bit her lower lip trying to hold back the tear from falling because she was moved to see her old Father honored by Arga.
"Have, don't respect it. I also do not need to be given excessive respect." Father's hand patted Arga's arm softly and warmly. Then Arga raised his head. "Thank you, Mr ...."
"There's no need to formally call me that, sir. You can call me by name only," cut off Arga when Mr. Asha called him 'Father' politely.
"Then I'm the one that's not good. You are my son's superior ..."
"It's okay. I'm actually young, sir .." said Arga diluted the atmosphere with a little joke. He laughed with his attitude.
"so yeah... Uhm ... Thank you Nak Arga .. "said the Father doubtfully. But because Arga agreed, I continued. "Thank you, my son has been accepted to work here. I am very grateful," said the sincere Father.
Hearing the Father call his Young Master 'Son', Asha wanted to smile amusedly.
Basic Arga, make you say it funny. Arga boy? Father could aja.
"I am also grateful to have been given the opportunity to receive a diligent and clever employee like Asha .... This place is lucky to get employees like your son," praise Arga who sounded in another sense in the ears of Asha. Making Asha's lips thin at hearing the sentence just now.
"Yes already... You can meet your daughter. Moreover, being able to meet the kind and polite Nak Arga, thank you. Next time, you can say hello if you meet on the street. You can make better friends, right? Well ... even though his friend is an old man like me," you can also start joking. Arga smiled in response to the joke of his father Asha.
"That friend has no name old or young, sir. Friends can still help us if we are in trouble. It's better to add friends than to add enemies" said Arga who sounded wise. Asha snorted softly.
"Really, right. That's the point of friends," said Mr. happy while patting Arga's arm slowly many times. Asha could see a happy hue on the faces of Father and Arga. Arga must be excited when his wish is achieved. Ah .. they both.
