Picking Up the Past

Thanksgiving

2 Days after the return of Arbi from London, the company 3A Sahabat held a thanksgiving event for their victory in the Bian corp.

Some orphanages were invited to the company 3A Sahabat, the company's lobby in magic as an event venue. The right side is available a variety of food dishes, round tables neatly arranged in the middle to the left side.

All the work of the day was put to rest, except for the officers in the field who continued to work as usual. The event was made simple by still displaying an elegant impression.

Mila was standing near the table of food dishes, helping every child who had difficulty taking the food they wanted.

Such an atmosphere made him feel very happy, he felt back to the atmosphere of the school he had left, ‘kak Syifa how are you, what his stomach has grown, what is his stomach, it feels like long enough I didn't meet him’ Inner Mila. He was graciously serving every child who needed his help.

Abel and Vanessa are also busy playing with the orphans at the table, sharing stories of entertaining the children.

In another corner, Karina's doctor, along with her team of doctors, used to do the company's annual health checks. They were sitting with Rita and some of the company's staff including Aaron.

In the corner near the usual loby sofa, 4 friends were sitting repeating their rare times together.

Arbi who had just returned from London seemed to smile seeing the carefree orphans enjoying the atmosphere of their event. There are several balloons that adorn the room, there are also some simple playgrounds for children under 6 years old.

The event accompanied by Islamic music was warm, making Arbi smile they saw it.

“what women from Hardi corp are not invited?” asked Arbi in a relaxed tone while still looking at the children there.

“Anjani?” asked Ari flatly, he saw Arbi's cheerful eyes looking at the orphans, there was a certain satisfaction in Arbi's heart when their event could frame the smiles of the orphans.

“iya” replied Arbi briefly.

“he's our client, where maybe we invite him, this is an event for our internal aja” replied Arya, he felt his best friend had other intentions for his question.

Arbi then glanced at Ari, Arya and Tomy, “happily he didn't come" he murmured.

"we have not signed a second contract with them, right?, if you have fixed the design, let me take care of it there, how do I know I can meet him again” seloroh Arbi casually.

“do not vary Bi, you already have Rika” said Arya with annoyance, he did not want Anjani to be a toy Arbi.

Arbi took a rough breath, he then glanced at Ari, “tomorrow I give you a document about the director of the same Rakarsa Cipta lo Ri, you take care of it immediately, so that the woman can I throw away, so I can call the fiancee orang” said Arbi casually without burden.

Ari smiles at Arbi's words, “what do you mean?” asked Arya who was confused at Ari and Arbi.

“gue has said Arbi has other plans for lo's brother-in-law, Rika is the tool, the woman is one of lo”'s toy-in-law explained Ari briefly.

Arya and Tomy narrow their eyes at Ari's words, Tomy who does not know very well the problem of Vanessa, finally she knows what problems the woman is facing, she said, all this time he only suspected - conjecture and did not want to ask for fear that the woman would be offended.

“does sister Vanessa know about it Arya?” tomy asked Arya.

“That is, her husband was really outrageous to her” muttered Arya who again recalled the results of Irman's fertility test.

Ari smiled at Arya's words, “means you agree if you break it?, Bian corp can not destroy him, but what I found this, Bian corp, he can not run anymore” said Arbi cynically.

“whatever you guys, it's our deal, the important household I'm safe, it's enough for me, don't make my relationship with my wife messed up, just that” said Arya with annoyance, he wondered why revenge so gnawed the hearts of many people.

“If Mila believes the same lo, everything will be safe Arya, Arya, this is a test of true trust for your wife said Ari while looking at Mila who is still fun and looks cheerful serving the children near the table of food dishes.

Arya took a rough breath, she also thought long. He felt as a sister, Mila would not be able to see her brother destroyed by others, even though his brother was bad for him.

“You and Karina are fine, right Ri?, I see from earlier you guys are not reprimanded at all” said Tomy who switched their conversation, he did not want Arya to feel burdened with Irman's problem, he said, but he also did not realize, if what he asked also made Ari uncomfortable.

“lo there is a problem with Karina Ri” asked Arbi. Ari then stood up, “see only later how Karina's decision, she chose me or not” Ari then walked towards one of the tables.

Arya rubs her hair rough, ‘ahh, why Karina can not see the sincerity of Ari sih’ route.

While Karina's doctor looked flat at Ari who was walking slowly from her chair. The feeling of the doctor could not be interpreted from his gaze and face, whether what he felt saw Ari at that time.

Ari then sits at the same table as Vanessa who is playing with the kids there. The girl looked so cheerful comforting the orphans.

Vanessa invites the children at her desk to talk while holding a child in her lap.

Ari's presence there greeted Vanessa with a pias face, for some reason she was still afraid to see the men who had pulled her violently.

“why is your face like that?, are you still mad at me?” said Ari flatly, the children there immediately join pias see Ari.

“no, I just wonder why you are sitting here” replied Vanessa who is holding a 4-year-old child in her lap. “I apologize for that day, I think you're still mad at me”

“aku is not used to being close to children, so I feel awkward if I have to be alone with children without any other adults” continued Ari.

“i couldn't sit at Abel's table, or near Mila, could upset their men” continued Ari again.

“I also have a husband kali” said Vanessa who tried to joke on Ari.

“they care about you? would he be angry if I sat here with you?” ask Ari flatly.

Vanessa flinched, she just wanted to jokingly say that, but Ari's words hit her hard.

"you are the orphans here, but you can't get along with them” said Vanessa who switched their conversation.

“just continue your activities, I just hitchhiked sitting here” said Ari who tried to smile to see the children who were still pias to him.

Ari's behavior immediately made Vanessa laugh thinly, awkwardness clearly visible from the man's smile. Vanessa then brought the kids back to the table to talk.

Meanwhile, at Arya's desk, Tomy and Arbi have a light conversation about Arbi's visit to Vietnam and London.

“if possible, I want you to go to Vietnam Arya, to present your design later, and also next month there will be Bian corp representatives to Jakarta, Jakarta, they will see your design presentation as well as reviewing the location of this project in Kalimantan” said Arbi casually, his eyes now look back at the children who were playing.

“liat aja later Bi, if possible, I do not matter, as long as my wife and brother Vanessa can be safe, if necessary they come with me there”

"gue lives first yes," Arya then rose to approach Mila, already from the moment he saw Mila, he held back from approaching his cheerful wife. But he really could not resist his desire to be around his wife.

While Tomy smiles at Arbi, “you join Rika Bi, while you are still dating, I want to join Abel first” said Tomy who then also stood leaving Arbi to Abel's place.

Arbi took a rough breath, he looked towards Rika who sat with her staff, ‘ah shit, Tomy was the same Arya always the same me when the event kayak gini, now already have a partner, Arya, even I in stay’ his inner with annoyance.

Arbi was still alone there looking at the children who were still enjoying their dishes and entertainment. Until finally Rika herself who approached him, the thing that made Arbi immediately really upset with the situation.

On the other hand, Arya helped Mila who had always been eager to accompany the children there, after finishing with dishes serving dishes, Mila then joined at one of the tables with orphans, orphans, “you like this Mil?” asked Arya who saw Mila's smile from behind her veil, she embraced Mila's shoulder sitting next to her.

“ini reminds me of Arya” school muttered Mila, he then entertained the children with the fairy tale he used to tell in front of the class.

While Arya looked at his wife with a smile, she did not expect that simple thing could make his wife as happy as that day.
