CHAPTER 18
After a moment of thought, Aunt Mirah said to her father Pandu, “Mustofa, once expressed his desire to marry me. But, I refuse. I do not want to be made his second wife”.
“Mustofa who is it?” Ask Mr. Salim.
“Head part in where I work.” Answer Agnes' mother
“Does he have black magic.” Ask Mr. Salim back.
“Hmmm... Don't know, yes..! but, I don't think so. Because he is among those who obey his religion. His wife is old and often sick – sick, but I still do not want.” Answer Agnes' mother.
“Then, who else besides Mustofa.”
“Ronni, Prasetyo, Danung.. Oh, if Roni and Danung are already in sumbawa and Palembang.”
“Prasetyo still here??”
“Still. He's my deputy in the office. I always avoided talking about marriage. Because in my opinion, Prasetyo is still too young.”
“Is he an ambitious person..? And it's easy to be offended.?”
“Hmm. He is precisely the person who never gets angry despite being insulted like anything.”
“Means not him.” Pandu's murmur chimed unconsciously.
“Pak Budiman is too. He meant to approach me. Even once invited me to stay at a villa, but I rejected it subtly.” Her mother Agnes said.
“Whose Boy is that.?” ask Mr. Salim
“He's my former director, but now he's retired, he still lives in this city too.” Answer Agnes' mother.
“Maybe Mr. Budiman that's the guy.” Sela Agnes's.
“Mama thinks it's not him. Because, Mr. Budiman hates most people who talk about superstitions and mystics. His mindset is always based on Logic.”
Sepi momentarily intertwined. His father Pandu had a smile and muttered, “Wah, it turns out that many also have a crush on Madam Mirah, yes.”
Her mother Agnes smiled shyly. Stiff. Agnes herself just gave a smile. Because it's still wrapped up in grief.
Her mother Agnes said to her son, “Oo, yes.. Bob Shalman also once sent a bouquet and expressed love to Mama on the phone.”
“Then what did Mama say back then.?” ask Agnes
“Mama says that Mama is not a woman who can not live without a man, Mama does not need his wealth, and Mama also said that Mama is not amazed by his popularity, and.” Her Mama said Agnes..
“Popularity ap aitu, Mistress.?” cut off his father Pandu
“Bob Shalman is a magician. On my office birthday, we called several capital artists including a magic interlude from Bob Shalman. That's where I know him, that's when he often calls to the office, long – long I never ladeni.” Answer Agnes' mother.
“Magician..?” Pandu muttered with frown.
Her mother Agnes nodded, looked at Pandu and said, “He's a magician whose life is full of luxury. But for him, his wealth is meaningless. He wants to develop a career, have a big name. In fact, he is sure soon he will be able to defeat world-class magicians, such as David Coperfield and others.”
“means he is ambitious enough to be the magic king of the world.” Pandu said.
“Yaa. yes, that's the ambition.” says Mama Agnes.
“Magic is closely related to magical.!” his father said Pandu.
“Is he an irritable person.?” this time the question came from Dhamayanti.
“It seems so. You see, according to the story of Bob's men often urinate – uringer. Little – little angry. He wanted to be considered a king whose every commandment should not be about. Even if someone criticizes him, he is always angry – is angry with that person.” Answer Agnes' mother.
“It's clear” Pandu said as he sighed, “Surely he's the one.”
