Gani ran while his breath was wheezing. He told Ms. Santy and Mr. Ridwan that Aulia was in trouble.
"What,!" exclaim Bu Santy.
"What's he hurting, Gan,?" now Mr. Ridwan chimed.
"Sir Aulia just had an accident. Now he's taken to the hospital" Gani replied.
"Do you know from whom, son,?" ask Mrs Santy to make sure.
"So Gani had played to Aulia's house, said her maid she had an accident," replied Gani.
"O Allah Pa, how is this. It must have been Aulia," said Ms. Santy, looking at her husband in a panic.
"Calm down, Ma, let's find out what hospital. Later if there is time we look there," replied Mr. Ridwan.
"Wood is told what is not.?"
"Don't let's not think."
"But he's obviously waiting for news from us, Pa," Ms. Santy said.
"Oh yes, ma'am, sir. Gani to the room first. Later in the afternoon Gani wants to see Aulia's sister with the children of the halfway house," said Gani.
"Oh yes dear, Mother is the same father later if it has been loose schedule."
"Good Mom."

SEMARANG
Mayu looks unsettled at the office. Every now and then she looks at her phone to make sure there's news from her mom about Aulia.
Tok...mdk...,! There was a knock from outside the room.
"Please come in,!" answer from within.
The door opened and someone came in and brought him food.
"Sorry Mr. Bayu, this is the food you ordered"
"Oh yes thank you, yes Bud," replied Bayu.
"Yes sir, I put it inside again" said Budi as he walked away.
"Bidi, wait a minute."
Bayu took out the change that was in the package. Then he gave it to the cleaning service.
"It's for you, buy it for your lunch."
"But I've eaten, sir. My wife always makes provisions for me," replied Budi.
"Bud, this is what I give you. Yes, whatever you do. If indeed you have eaten, yes for others," said Bayu reassured.
"All right then, sir. I accept this, yes. May the windfall of Mr. Bayu always smooth and barokah," said Budi.
"Amiin., may all of our windfalls be smooth and barokah."
Shortly thereafter Budi stepped out of Bayu's room. Now Bayu ate open the rice he ordered earlier. Plates and spoons and forks have been provided by Budi before.
Bayu is very happy because he can feel the mixed rice typical of Semarang. Mixed rice is not much different from mixed rice in Surabaya. Bayu greedily ate the food.
Triings...
Bayu's phone rang, he put his spoon and saw who sent the message.
"Mama," he murmured.
"Bay, Aulia's been in an accident and hospitalized."
Bayu suddenly stopped chewing and his eyes were still fixed on the contents of the message from his mother. His hands were trembling as he read the message.
His eyes began to dew and before long his tears fell down past his cheeks. He did not understand why his relationship with Aulia always had tests.
He did not continue his lunch anymore because he had no appetite. Now he is confused to arrange a schedule to return to Surabaya to see the situation of Aulia.
In the afternoon when he wanted to go home Bayu met with Mr. Adrian in front of the reception desk.
"Oh yes Mr. Bayu. After tomorrow get ready to go to Bali with me, huh? There is the same gathering of all branch offices in Indonesia," said Pak Adrian.
"Oh yes Sir. I'm ready" replied Bayu.
"good. I go home first, yeah."
"Please Sir. Be careful" replied Bayu.
Bayu was stunned by the incident just now. So busy is his current work schedule. As the new manager he did not dare to resist or defy any task. The less chance he had of meeting Aulia.
"Sir Bayu wants to go home,?" greet someone from behind.
"Eh Bu Windy, yes this is going home" replied Bayu.
"I noticed from afar like Mr. Bayu was thinking about something again" said Windy.
"Oh, that's okay. Mr. Adrian said the day after I went to Bali for a gathering," replied Bayu.
"Oh that, I was also told by Mr. Adrian. The three of us are leaving, sir," said Windy.
"Oh so Bu Windy came along too, seneng dong rame-rame," replied Bayu.
"Yes Sir. I as the staff of Pak Bayu always participate in every activity that Pak Bayu participated in. Before Mr. Bayu became a manager in this office, I always follow every Pak Galih there are activities outside" explained Windy.
"Mom Windy take the car, okay,?" ask Bayu.
"I just happened not to bring it."
"Just go home with me, I happened to have a car with me," Bayu asked.
"All right, sir."
"Oh yeah, Miss Windy, come with me to the pharmacy for a second, yeah,?" say Bayu on the way home.
"Oh yes sir."
"This vitamin I happen to run out, mumpung again on the road all you buy," said Bayu while driving.
"Yes Sir. Health is important, especially when the season is not clear, sometimes hot sometimes cold. So we have to be smart to take care of our immune system," explains Windy.
"Mother, we must maintain health in order to keep doing our activities."
Bayu focused on driving and beside him sat a beautiful woman, while his mind this time was still fixed on Aulia who was experiencing disaster. Windy found the slightly dreamy Bayu directly reprimanding him because this was a danger to them.
"Pak Bayu daydreams, if Mr. Bayu is tired let me change his drive," bargained Windy.
"Oh no need ma'am, I just got word that Aulia had an accident and entered the hospital. So a little bit of focus.
"Aulia's fiancee.?"
"Fiancee, Mom."
"Then ex-fiancee,?" ask Windy.
"Yes, because she's married to someone else,!" replied Bayu without looking at Windy.
"What.!"
