S2: Kenji

Meanwhile, Kenji felt the plagues of the days he lived after Ciya's departure. The girl left a deep wound on her heart and until now the scar had not completely dried up. 

Five years already, but Kenji feels it just happened a few months ago. 

"Ahhh finally finished," he said with a sigh of relief. 

After several hours he struggled with the documents before him, he was finally able to finish them. 

Kenji works for a well-known company. Although not the largest, but the company is quite impactful in the community. 

Not a boss or boss, he is just an ordinary employee with a mediocre salary that he must take into account every expenditure. 

His father's company still stood perfectly. Even his father once offered somewhat Kenji to continue his business, but surely Kenji refused. 

I don't know what reason the man had, only for now he prefers to work in a small company. 

"What's good to bring this afternoon?" He still had not forgotten someone whom he now considered to be his own family. 

Jihan's mother, Kenji always came to her house at least one week three times. Perhaps the middle-aged woman was starting to feel bored by his arrival. 

"Ken, can you go to my room for a while before you go home?" His boss came to him, when he could have called, did not have to bother coming to his cubicle. 

"Good Mom." The boss is a girl. Their age is not much adrift, only two years different from the younger Kenji. 

Kenji followed Queenara's steps. Queenaea Zevana, the full name of his boss. Pretty complicated but it's a pretty name. 

Arriving at the room Kenji is welcome to sit down. "Sit down."

Kenji sat down and waited for the boss to finish his speech. 

"I don't want you out of town. Not a big project, but it's important and I believe you can handle this, how can you?" ask the girl. 

Kenji thought a little. The end of next month is the anniversary of Ciya's death and usually Kenji will go to Ciya's tomb to pray. 

"What's at the end of the month, Mom?" Kenji finally dared to ask. 

"No. At the beginning of the month we have to leave" replied his superior. 

"Ah well can." After confirming that Kenji was capable, the young boss nodded with his smile. 

"That's it, Mom?" Kenji again asked fearing that there was still something his boss would tell him. 

"Udah. You can go back to your room." Kenji nodded and nodded from there. 

It's a bit of a hassle to work for a company whose boss likes him. Twice Queena said what she felt to Kenji. But at that time Kenji also said firmly if he could not establish a relationship in the near future. 

I don't know, but after five years, it feels like he's still not ready for what's going to happen if he's back in a relationship with someone. 

"Go home, yes" said Kenji to the people who were there. Actually, the hours of returning home from work were already, only he finished the job first. 

"Hm. Be careful on the road," replied one while the others simply nodded. 

Kenji headed for the parking lot where he parked his car. His current destination was a toast shop that he was very fond of. 

Along the way, Kenji just plays songs while focusing on the streets that are starting to get crowded. The hours of returning home from work are common like this. 

"It's also full of toast, too" he said as he looked at how the queue was there. 

But Kenji still comes to buy because he will go to Mother Jihan's house before going home. 

Sure enough, for about an hour he waited just now for his toast so. 

"Pay at the cashier ya Mas," said the seller who is owned by Kenji. 

Kenji paid for it before the man drove to Mother Jihan's house. 

**** 

"Mother, what else is afternoon-afternoon gini?" Once there, Kenji immediately rushed into the arms of Mother Jihan. 

Long time not getting warm embrace of a Mother makes Kenji very comfortable and happy if hugging the woman. 

"You haven't been here for a week" he joked. 

He didn't lie when he said Kenji came to his house last week. 

"If you go straight home Ken bored Bun. No one," he replied, breaking their arms. 

"Who do you tell to live alone? Your father is there, he is also alone at home" said Mother Jihan.

Kenji often comes home to make the man often tell all his complaints to the woman who he has considered as his mother. He did not hesitate to tell his family. 

"You'll be independent, Bun. Let's just Father himself, let's quickly find another wife for him," he said. 

They both smiled after. "Nih Ken bring the sweet." The man offered the toast he had bought. 

"You're working the money for yourself. Do not continue to feed Mother," he said. 

"If you want to come, just come do not need to bring food." Indeed, almost every Kenji came there, the man did not escape bringing food, especially sweet foods that are very liked by the mother. 

"It's okay. Kenji's salary, anyway," he said. 

"You are a scatter of money. Come on in first." Mother Jihan stops reading her newspaper and invites Kenji to come in. 

"Mothers looking for a new husband. Let there be friends at home" said Kenji. 

He was already no longer awkward even when asking about such a little privacy thing. 

"Mother's time to fall in love is over. Now it's your time. You're the one who needs to find a partner." Mother Jihan turned things around. 

"Kenji mah don't ask. Tomorrow's wedding can also be, but you don't want to," he replied accompanied by a light laugh. 

"Don't want to keep going. When are you going to get rich in gini?"

"Emm if possible forever" he replied. 

"Don't do that, you have to have people who are home to you. Don't keep everything yourself. Hope you meet the person you've arranged for you soon,"

Kenji nodded. Actually the taste of it for Ciya is still there. But he realized, even though Ciya was still around, the girl would only think of him as a big brother, nothing more. 

Perhaps it was appropriate that he immediately sought a companion. 

"If Ken suddenly brings a girl here to be known to Mother, Mother do not be surprised, yes" her god. 

"Hmm, of course, wouldn't be surprised. You've been waiting for that to happen for a long time," he chuckled. 

Kenji smiled knot. Actually not entirely because he closed his heart, but there was indeed no one who fit in his heart.
