Nuance 5 Dara
(POV Selvi) Driver For Selvi



That morning Selvi was looking good. It's her first day back at work after her abduction. Selvi descended from her room on the upper floor to the dining room. It seems that his beloved mother is preparing food at the dining table.


"You're gonna have an office today, son?" ask mama.


"Yes mah. Selvi had to work because a lot of work was abandoned because of the incident the other day," Selvi replied.


"But you should have found a driver first just thought of entering work. Mamah was afraid that the events of that time befall you again," said mamah with worry.


"Oh mama, just calm down. This mama's son is already big. Can take care of yourself. Lagian the Yudi who kidnapped Selvi was already dead, and all his men have been detained" Selvi assured.


"Yes, you are so good, son. But why were you kidnapped then?"


"That's not lucky yet, ma'am" replied Selvi.


"Emang the man is dead and his plot has been snatched up by the police. But we don't know if there is still a grudge against you for the death of the evil man? You're good to say you're not lucky. Mom is worried here, son. Mamah does not want a similar incident to happen to you again," said Mamah.


"Why is it so anxiety?"


"What else is an anxiety cell? Food's name?"


"It's not that, anxiety is a psychiatric disorder where a person has excessive feelings of anxiety and worry" Selvi explained.


Mamah who heard Selvi's explanation began to sewot and said, "Enak aja mamah is said to have a psychiatric disorder. Mom is healthy, son. Mamah is only worried because you are the only darling of mamah, his love mama after your papah first left mamah forever, the blood of the flesh mamah."


"Yes.iya..iya later Selvi looking for a driver to calm down," said Selvi.


"Just ask, this afternoon there must be a driver for you," pinta mamah.


"Well, that's very mah. The driver's nose is not an easy matter" Selvi protested.


"Yes if this afternoon you did not manage to get a driver, mamah who is looking for you. Choose which, you or mama who seek," threatened mamah.


"Yes. yeah... Later Selvi try to get this afternoon mah. If so Selvi pamit to the office first yes mah," said Selvi while kissing the right palm of her mother.


"Be careful on the road, son," said Mama.


Selvi enters her car and starts leaving home for her workplace.

Arriving at the office, Selvi was greeted by Wati, his secretary.


"Selvi's mom is back to work. We're all afraid of mom if anything happens to her" Wati said.


"I'm not sure I'm okay. Oh yeah Wati, what about the presentation files we made back then?" ask Selvi.


"Calm mom. Mr. Yamato's company agreed to cooperate with us. Especially when they see the exposure of our presentation," replied Wati happily.


"Thank God Wati. I am so grateful to you. As long as I'm not around, you can handle cooperation with other companies. Later I will consider raising your salary and giving bonuses," Selvi said with a sparkle.


"Oh, Miss Selvi was too complimentary. This is my duty as a mother's secretary" said Wati.


There was a moment of silence, then Wati permission to continue his work, but Selvi asked him to remain in the room.


"What's wrong mom?" ask Wati.


"Look at Wati, do you have any acquaintance with a driver or a driver service company?" Selvi asked back.


"Hm... If you can know what mom is for?" ask Wati again.


"My friend told me to have a private driver. Fear of the events of that time repeating itself. I can drive though. And I can take care of myself too" Selvi replied.


"That means parents love their children. Afraid of anything else happening," Wati explained.


"But my mother mengultimatum, if until this afternoon I can not the driver, my Mom who will seek and recommend for me," protested Selvi.


"Well if the limit until this afternoon is a bit heavy ma'am. You will advertise and interview prospective drivers it will take time," said Wati.


"That's what I was thinking, too. So I ask you there have acquaintances who are looking for a driver's job or driver's service provider?" ask Wati.


"Well if the driver's service provider apologizes ma'am, I have no contact. I'll try infocating to my WhatsApp group. Who knows if anyone is interested" replied Wati.


"OK, wait until the afternoon, Wati" Selvi said


"Ready mom. Then I have permission to do my job," replied Wati as she left Selvi's room.

The clock showed at 4 p.m. Selvi is still working on file after file which was abandoned due to the kidnapping incident. Suddenly...


Phone's vibrating. Selvi took her phone. It was from mama. He must be a driver problem. Selvi picked up the phone from her mother,


📞"Hello mah..."


📞"Have you got a driver to pick you up?"


📞"Not yet mah. It's still being sought..."


📞"Well, mama got it. If you can go home quickly to see your recommendation driver, or we come to your office?"


📞"Don't mah. Yes, Selvi's coming home."


📞"OK... mamah wait..."


The phone is also closed.


Selvi tidied up the file on her desk, then she walked out of the room to Wati's desk,


"Wati, I went home first. Mamah I want to introduce a new driver who recommended it," Selvi said.


"So I don't have to look for mom anymore?" ask Wati.


"Not anymore. Okay, I'm going home first huh."


"Yes ma'am."


Selvi got out of the office and went home.


***


Arriving at home, mamah and a young man are waiting for Selvi's arrival,


"This is a prospective driver of choice mamah," said mamah introducing the man. Selvi was somewhat amazed because the prospective driver recommended as handsome as a Korean artist.


Selvi read the man's application. How surprised he was when he saw the application file of prospective drivers. It turns out he is an economics graduate of a famous university in Indonesia.


"Can you introduce yourself?" ask Selvi.


"I'm named Stevanus. You can call it Stevan. I'm only 25 years old" said the driver.


"Trus in your application file that makes me confused is, you're a scholar. Why do you want to be a driver?" ask Selvi.


"I've tried to apply here, but haven't been accepted. That's why when his mother was looking for a driver, I immediately accepted, "Stevan replied.


"Not call me mother, call me mbak Selvi aja."


"Okay mom, uh mbak Selvi."


"Keep you can drive a matic car?"


"Can mbak. All kinds of cars I can drive."


Mamah nya Selvi then joined in talking, "So how's son? She accepted?"


Selvi thought, only this time he met a handsome driver who continued to be highly educated. He said it was a pity if it was not accepted. Selvi said, "From tomorrow you can work as my driver."


"Thank you mbak. Tomorrow before 7 am, I'm already here."


"Don't be late. Because I have to work at 8 o'clock."


"Ready mom. Then I'll let you leave."


Stevan leaves Selvi's house. Selvi and her mother. Then Selvi asked the same mom, "Selvi can not ask mah? Where do you get people like Steven from?"


"From arisan's friend mamah. Mama tried to call them, and one of them recommended Stevan" Mamah replied with a smile.


"Soalnya Stevan is cute not kelulungan. It's a scholar again. It feels more like a driver Selvi wants," guyon Selvi.


"Well, my son, why is he so flirty?" ask Mamah.


"Finally, mamah introduced her driver to make Selvi to ge-er an. If for example Selvi fell in love with Stevan, supported yes mah," Selvi said while ngakak.


"Hmm. Kasambet like this." reply Mamah.


Selvi could only laugh. This is how his mother and favorite son behave.
