Pearls For Wood

Disillusioned

"It's 16:39 WIB and Bayu's brother hasn't come out of his study" I said worried about him. I immediately approached her in the workroom.

"Sir Bayu, open the door! Brother Bayu! Brother's okay inside?" my screams got no response.

"Sumi Box!"

"Sumi Box!" yell again with all my might.

"I'm a mistress" he said as he stood before me.

"Mbok Sumi, you have a spare key to the door of this room, right? Bring it right now!" my orders are to Sumi's mom who nods and runs to get the key.

"Mrs is the key!" he said after a while.

"Why so many Sumi mbok? Which one's the door lock for this room?" I said while trying one by one of the many keys.

"Sorry ma'am, what's going on? Why does the madam look so worried?" ask Sumi.

"Pak Bayu is in the mbok, he missed his lunch and locked himself in this room, I'm afraid the pain of Maghnya relapse, mbok." I said as is.

"Do I ask Jamal to break down the door."

"No need to be open" said I then entered the work room Bayu kak followed by mbok Sumi behind me.

"Mrs, are you sleeping or fainting?" tanyanya saw brother Bayu leaning his body in the work chair and closed his eyes.

"Sir Bayu! Sis Bayu wake up! Don't scare Tiara! Brother Bayu!" my screams woke up Bayu's sister.

"Mbok, help me with my roommate!" I said then we packed him up with a room.

After arriving in the room, I laid her body slowly in bed and covered her.

"Madamma do I need to call a doctor?"

"No need mbok, I will check the situation, mbok Sumi just continue the work mbok Sumi!" I said then took my checking bag. Yes, even though I am a pediatrician I can handle the illness suffered by Bayu.

"I told you not to leave your lunch! Now look what happened! Why should you torture yourself for something so trivial? Health was the main thing." grumbled as he checked his state. After that, I gave him a drug that is always ready if at any time relapse and let him rest.

"Sleep! I'll make porridge for you."

"Mrs, can I help you?" said Inem the cook here.

"No need, I just want to make porridge." I started cooking.

"Sir Bayu, wake up! Let's eat first! Tiara make porridge for sister Bayu." said I woke up brother Bayu who began to open his eyes slowly.

"Rb . . .."

"Already! Sis Bayu don't talk to me much! Open your mouth!" I said to pour the porridge in his mouth and he began to open his mouth, ate the porridge to the end without remaining, then I took the water on the nightstand.

"Ra, I'm sorry."

"Tiara wasn't angry, Tiara was just disappointed by brother's attitude. Torturing yourself only for trivial matters. I know healthy is very expensive. Why did Sis Bayu have to sacrifice her health for a small problem? I don't like big brother like that." I said softly but full of emphasis.

"Tiara, I just want you to do what Mutia did!" the answer. While I just look at him painfully.

"What big brother means, I am me and not brother Mutia or anyone else. Let me be myself, brother. And you've been wearing a lot of servants, haven't you? Cook, clean, take care of Tiara, all have their duties. Then, what's the point of me being here for?"

"I can't possibly let you take care of this house alone Ra, you will only take care of me and Pearl, Lilis will only help you. Don't misunderstand me."

"Whatever Brother Bayu, this is my sister's house I have no right to anything here!" I said leaving Bayu's brother alone in the room.

"Pearls, mama kangen you dear." I said as I entered the Pearl room.

"The pearls turned out to be beautiful, ma'am. Not fussy." praise Lilis.

"Yes dong mbak Lilis, mama pinter's son. Yeah, sweetie?" I said peek at his puffer cheek.

"What age is Miss Lilis? I'm still a school kid?"

"20-year-old Miss Tiara, I'm Pastri's son."

"Owh, why not find another job?"

"I'm just a poor person who can't afford high school bu Tiara, lucky sir Bayu received us both, sir Bayu a good person, grateful that Tiara's mother can have him as a husband."

DEG!

'Is this the reason why Bayu hired many servants in his house?' I murmured in my heart.

"Mom Tiara, why bengong ma'am? Did I speak wrong? I'm sorry the madam!"

"No Lis, I'm fine. Yes it is Lis, let me bathe the Pearl first."

"Well, ma'am Tiara, I'll help my mother first." she said and left the Pearl room.
