My Soul in Grandpa's Hands

Ngemall

Devan enters the parking page at Par** Java Mall, and stops his car valet . After handing the car keys to the valet officer, immediately took Aleta into the mall.

"We go where we were, someone wants Devan to look here" asked Aleta.

"Nothing, Devan here will bring my beautiful wife. Aleta wants to buy anything, please." said Devan, kissing Aleta's head.

"Aleta wants to add a shirt can't." Aleta looked into Devan's eyes.

"Don't dress, you ask for this mall only, will mas Devan fulfill. Come on in the corner shop." Devan immediately took Aleta's hand to a boutique located in the corner of the mall.

"Drtttt..., drtttt..," suddenly Devan's phone rang.

Since today he did have the intention to take his wife for a walk, Devan ignored the phone call. He kept holding his wife's hand, and went into the boutique.

"Drtt. drtt," his phone rang again.

"Just pick up mas, it's okay, Aleta wants to go in first. No need to worry too much, in a quiet boutique really." Aleta suggested that her husband raise the call.

"Okay, wait in the waiting chair. Please Aleta picky, if there is a match, directly call mas." Devan instantly sees the phone call, and it turns out that Cokro's grandfather made the call.

Aleta casually then looked through the collection of clothes emblazoned there. But what many hang is a collection of party clothes.

"You're looking for clothes for what show you have." greet the salesgirls on Aleta.

Aleta looked towards the source of the sound.

"I want to find a casual dress, to just go for a walk, not to attend events." Aleta answered the salesman's question.

"For casual clothes, it's right over there. Let me take you,"

Aleta finally followed the way of the salesman, and rather in the back area, it turns out that there are many collections of casual clothes for the style of the streets. Aleta held a bright yellow shirt somewhat greenish, then looked for casual pants for her partner.

"Mbak, try to get the pants displayed above yes. Looks like it fits with this boss." Aleta asked the saleswoman to get her trousers that were hung up a little.

"Well, wait a minute I'll get you a mbak."

While waiting for the salesperson to pick up the item he was after, Aleta chose the other items. There was about an hour Aleta was inside the boutique, and after trying on her clothes she picked up four sets of clothes, and one casual bag.

"Bak wants to look around again, or this shirt I'm cleaning up." asked the friendly salesperson.

"It's been cleaned up immediately, I've reached the stand from earlier."

"Then, come with me to the cashier."

Aleta followed the salesman's steps towards the cashier, she looked around looking for her husband. But he did not find where he was.

"For a while now, I'm looking for my husband first. Let him clear the bill." Aleta ask permission for a moment.

"Yes mbak, while we make the bill."

Aleta headed towards the row of seats Devan had occupied, but no one was there. He only sees a man who may be dropping off his girlfriend or his wife.

"Hadeh. He said take a walk, but why did it disappear on its own." Aleta muttered to herself, then she sat waiting for Devan there.

The salesman who had served him was still faithfully waiting at the cashier. As almost 10 minutes of time passed, Aleta recalled that she had been given an ATM card by Devan. Finally, he dared to pay using the card.

"Try using this mbak, hopefully there is still a balance. My husband said he was waiting here, I'm going to say nothing" Aleta said as she held out a Black Premium ATM card.

The salesman smiled and looked at the cashier while muttering.

"Premium Black Card, when do we have ya."

"Mbak, sign or wear a PIN." said the cashier friendly.

"The money is there, some of my groceries." asked Aleta.

"Oh Allah ma'am, would take 50 pieces also will not run out of this balance." said the cashier with a smile.

"Then use the PIN." said Aleta.

She's a little upset with Devan her husband, saying don't leave, instead he's the one who left her. After she pressed the PIN button, and got proof of shopping, she shocked herself. Turns out he's spending almost 10 million. That much money he could use to buy the clothes of all the residents of the orphanage.

"Why bengong dear, already paid the bell." suddenly Devan was already beside him.

Aleta turned her head towards her husband, then she hit him on the arm.

"Where the hell, he said he wanted to wait, why even leave Aleta" he said.

"Sorry baby, I'm not going anywhere. Cokro's grandfather called, asking why he didn't come home. After receiving the call, I went to the toilet for a while. Where's the groceries." Devan didn't see his wife carrying groceries.

"This is mbak, the goods are finished." suddenly the saleswoman who has been serving Aleta, handed out a paper bag containing Aleta's groceries.

"How endless," asked Devan to the salesman and was about to take his wallet.

"Sorry to be paid the same way sir." said the cashier with a smile.

Devan immediately grabbed Aleta, and took the paper bag from her hand.

"Now where are we going dear." asked Devan as he walked out of the boutique.

The salesperson and the cashier smiled at their togetherness.

"Grandfather told us to go home." Aleta asked Devan.

They are currently enjoying dinner at the food court.

"No, just asking why suddenly. Last morning we didn't talk, we knew tonight we went straight to the apartment. There's something Grandpa wants to talk to us about." she said." Devan explains the phone call from Cokro.

"Yes too, why did we not fare this morning. But the idea to go home to the apartment, also just appeared this afternoon right."

Devan rubbed the corner of Aleta's mouth with a piece of tissue. There was a sausage dripping down the corner of his mouth.

"There's no need to think much. We're still in Bandung, and we're not going abroad. Let's finish the meal, we'll be home soon." said Devan.

"Where to go, apartment or grandpa's place." asked Aleta plainly.

"Yes the apartment, the cook has gone and finally back again. We haven't done in the apartment in a long time, baby." whispered Devan, who immediately turned Aleta's cheeks red.

"Mas, this is a public place. Don't talk lewd to." protest Aleta.

"It's not sweet talk, but we're raising our spirits here." whispered Devan back with a smile.

"Already ah, Aleta is full. Let's go home." Aleta finally gave up the witch doctor.

Devan smiled then they stood up, and walked away from the food court. Without stopping anywhere, they headed straight for the car.
