As promised to Emma, Bimantara came to the office where Leo worked. With a business card capital, Bimantara intends to ask Leo for an explanation related to the money that was given by the man to pay for the rent and renovation of the shophouse that will be used as their place of business. Even if Leo is busy and can not accompany the survey, let the former CEO who came directly to the location. So thought Bimantara.
Get off the motor, Bimantara immediately swung his foot into the skyscraper that was in front of there.
"Excuse me, Miss. I want to meet Mr Leo Iswanto, can you please call him here?" bimantara said to one of the officers standing behind the table.
Furrowing eyebrows staring full of question marks on the figure of Bimantara. Instead of answering the question of the man across the street, the beautiful, attractive-looking woman asked a question. "If you may know, in what division, sir? As far as I know, there is no employee named Leo Iswanto."
Lemas had been Bimantara's body that second as well. His legs were unable to support his body. Like being struck by lightning in broad daylight, the words of one of the receptionists across there made the concerns of a thirty-year-old man even more heightened. A million questions perched in the man's mind. What if he's been deceived?
Shaking his head, getting rid of the negative thoughts that continue to lodge in his mind. Come on, Bima. Don't jump to conclusions! This woman may be a new employee and not yet know Leo. Bimantara monologues, convincing himself not to immediately get bad at Leo.
"In the marketing and development division. Try to remember again who knows Miss forgot or Miss is a new employee here to not know Mr. Leo," keukeh Bimantara.
The beautiful woman shook her head, all the words of Bimantara were true. He has only been working for three months so he does not know all the employees of the company.
To make sure back, who is right and wrong, beautiful women with attractive looks grabbed the phone plane and then contacted someone looking for the name mentioned Bimantara. Long enough to search until finally he got the answer that ... in the company there was no employee named Leo Iswanto.
"I asked the chairman of the division that you mentioned, but sorry Leo Iswanto's name is not registered with this company. Maybe you have the wrong address" said the woman.
Anxiety filled Bimantara's heart. But he tried to be calm. There is still one more place that he has not been to, namely .. Leo residence in East Jakarta.
Not getting any information from where Leo worked, Bimantara immediately drove his two-wheeled vehicle to one of the simple houses in West Cakung.
After traveling for about an hour, Bimantara finally arrived in front of a small house that looked so quiet as if uninhabited. The brow litter was scattered everywhere, the front porch lights were still on confirming that the house was really no occupant at all.
The cold weather forced it to touch the surface of the skin, making the body of Bimantara more limp. However, he kept swinging his long legs towards the door ahead there.
Stand in front of the door while adjusting your breath to relieve irregular rhythmic heartbeat. Then, Bimantara knocked on the brown door leaf. "Assalamu a'laikum" said the man. However, there is no authorization from the owner of the house.
God, don't let what I'm afraid of happen! batin Bimantara's. Then, he again knocked on the door leaf and said hello in a high tone hoping Leo or other residents heard and opened the door.
When Bimantara stood up while knocking on the door, suddenly a middle-aged woman came over. The woman patted Bimantara on the back slowly. "Mas ... Mas. Find who?"
Bimantara looked back. "Owner of this house. Do you know where the owner is going? Since knocking on the door, but no one has opened the door for me."
The middle-aged woman furrowed her brows. "The owner of this house, yes I am, Mas. This is my rented house."
Hearing Leo's name being mentioned, the woman who owned the rented house immediately screeched, "Ck! Kere, belagu and unemployed like Leo who has a house anyway, sir. His job is just playing gaple, owing money to loan sharks and gambling. His wife and son ran away from home because they were not being watched."
Women who own the contract pay attention to the appearance of Bimantara from the top of the head to the tip of the foot. "What do you need, Father, to find Leo? You want to pay off debt, right?" guess it. "My advice, you should report to the police because the son of a bitch will never pay the debt. Before you, many people who come here collect debts, but their money is not returned."
"So, before I've been a lot of people looking for Leo, are you?" ask Bimantara to make sure.
"really. Leo is smart to say. His mouth was so sweet that his victims did not realize they would be deceived. They only realized after no news at all from the Leo. But unfortunately, they are late because Leo has been away from this rented house since two months ago, added the owner of the rented house.
***
The Bimantara vehicle travels at a speed of 60 KM/h. Pupus is already hoping to open his own business with the remaining savings from the sale of his luxury apartment. The initial intention of using the money to increase, but apparently bad luck befell the man.
"What should I tell Emma if she asks? Aargh .. there must be another quarrel between me and him," muttered Bimantara as he drove his two-wheeled vehicle.
"Damn, why does bad luck continue to fall on me, anyway! Three months of job searching, rejected. The turn to open the business, even got deceived," snorted Bimantara annoyed. Not realizing that everything that happened to him so far was karma for his past actions.
Stepping gontai entering a simple one-story house. Bimantara threw his backpack to any place. The man was quite tired of having a hard day.
Emma came out of the room after hearing a noise in the living room. Thinking if there is a thief entering the house, but it turns out the Bimantara is coming.
Curious about the latest news about Leo, Emma approached her husband and asked, "How did you meet Leo? So what money did you give him back?" that woman's scatter.
The body feels tired due to driving away plus the fact that it has just been deceived further makes Bimantara upset. Going home instead of being entertained is instead being scammed with various questions related to money.
Bimantara's jaw hardened, both hands clenched perfectly. However, he tried to control himself not to get emotional. "I've been looking for Leo in his company and where he lives, but I haven't seen him. According to the receptionist, there was no employee named Leo Iswanto at the company. When I came to his house, it turned out he was just contracted and had been two months away from there."
Suddenly Emma's eyeballs were perfectly wide. Then, he put on a creepy face. Teeth rumbling, ruffled waist and unsheathed a sharp look at Bimantara. "So you mean, we were tricked, huh?" Bimantara nodded weakly as his answer.
