Ride in Bed

The Return of the Past

A man enters the lobby of the Amarta hotel. He went straight to the reception desk to retrieve the room keys. The man had previously made a reservation online. Resespectionists on duty immediately welcomed the arrival of the guest.

“Good day, mr.”

“Siang. Reservation on behalf of Bayu Aji.”

“After pack.”

The receptionist checks the records of the hotel guests who made the reservation. Then his hand took the hotel key, and gave it to the man. While raising a smile, the man named Bayu Aji left the reception desk. He went to the elevator on the left side to go to the room he ordered.

After putting the suitcase into the closet, Bayu walked towards the window of the room and pulled out the curtains covering the window glass. He stood looking at the crowd of the highway that could be seen from his room. He had left his homeland seven years ago and only returned two months ago.

Before starting his duties as a doctor at one of the hospitals in the city of flowers, he decided to stay at a hotel that he said had six-star service based internationally. Bayu also hopes to meet with the woman he once abandoned in order to achieve his goals as a specialist doctor.

His hand grabbed the phone in his pants pocket, then opened the gallery folder. His eyes continued to look at a row of photos of his togetherness with the woman who until now is still in his heart, even though there are two women who have been his lover during his time in Berlin.

🌸🌸🌸

While running Pipit entered the lobby of the hotel where he worked. On this holiday he was forced to come to the office because the owner suddenly asked for the results of a quarterly evaluation whose plan will be reported tomorrow. He was surprised because one of his men said that there was data missing.

“How? What data is missing?” ask Pipit as soon as it gets to the room.

“This, mom. Our latest supplier payment data is missing. I've been looking but there's no.”

“You sure you saved it?”

“Already, bu.”

The man's staff scratched his head, the data stored neatly in the computer could just disappear. He had even checked into the control room to see the cctv recording installed in front of the auditor's team room. But he found nothing.

Pipit restores her hair, for a whole new age this time she loses important data. Moreover, the data was lost right before the quarterly report was given. The woman immediately contacted the IT team, asking to return the lost data. Maybe one of his men did mischief at work. Accidentally eliminating such important data.

After three hours of waiting, they were finally able to get the deleted data. Pipit only asked his men to be more careful again in working. If the data can not be recovered, it is not impossible for the auditor team to get a strong reprimand. Before Susilo, the IT team personnel contacted exited the room, the woman asked him to speak first.

“Can you browse again, is there any other data that was accidentally deleted or omitted?”

“Can you, ma'am. But it might take some time. Do you suspect there is data missing other than that?”

“I'm not sure either. But there is no harm in checking first. Please get protected. No one can access data other than me and team.”

“Good, bu.”

“Thank you, sir. Sorry for interrupting at holiday time.”

“Not what.”

Susilo nodded his head, then walked out of the Pipit room. For a moment Pipit still held in place. This incident made him suspicious, anyone who committed fraud and deliberately deleted the data. The woman shook her head, she tried to brush off her suspicions. It is possible that this incident was due to the negligence of his men.

After there was nothing more for Pipit to do, the woman decided to go home. He deliberately took the road to the lobby, while looking at the state of the hotel. Some of the staff who were in the lobby nodded their heads at him. From the direction of the elevator, Roxas appeared who had just finished shooting.

“Tan..” call Roxas. While running the man approached Pipit.

“Tumben Sunday to office.”

“Iya. There's a little problem. What are you doing?”

“Shooting. Mahes wants to create a new company profile. I'm the same as Aman abis shooting.”

“Hahaha.. yesterday I called Aman. Now even follow.”

“Me furniture.”

“Why? Rejected again?”

“Not. Time he didn't want to push the hejo.”

“Hahaha..where there are women who want to be told to push the hejo. That's why I said change too, the musiumin is the hejo. But instead of having it sorted out in the name, why strike again?”

Roxas just smiled as he answered Pipit's question. The condition of the hejo is already healthy walafiat, not lacking anything. What happened yesterday was just his wits to see if Amanda could be invited to push the hejo. But the woman actually left him.

“You're home, tan? I'll drop ya.”

“Tar strike again si hejo.”

“Ngga.. I guarantee.”

Just as Pipit and Roxas were about to leave the lobby, a woman screamed when she saw a guest coming out of the elevator with his head drenched in blood. The staff in the lobby came to the guest and took him to one of the couches. Bayu who happened to just come out of the restaurant immediately approached. He checked the guest for a moment.

“Press the wound, I will take the equipment in the car. Contact also ambulance.”

One of the staff directly did what Bayu said. He immediately put a white cloth on the injured guest's head. The other staff called an ambulance immediately. The approaching cheek was surprised to see the state of the guest.

“How is it?”

“Her head hurt, bu.”

“Have an ambulance phone?”

“Already, bu.”

“Who did it?”

Pipit saw the guest who was a woman. But he just lowered his head, not answering Pipit's question. Seeing from his appearance wearing sexy clothes, Pipit immediately thought that the guest was a call woman.

Before long Bayu came with a medical bag in his hand. He immediately approached the injured guest. The man cleaned the wound with NaCl liquid, then stopped the bleeding that occurred. He also prepared a needle and thread to stitch the wound on the head of the woman in front of him.

“For a while the wound has been treated, but you must remain in the hospital for further examination. Fear of blood clots in the head.”

“Sya, doc. Thank you,” replied the woman.

“What do you want to report to the police?” ask Bayu.

“Ngga please, doc.”

One of the staff told me the ambulance had arrived. Assisted by other staff, the woman stood up and walked towards the lobby. An ambulance was waiting in front of the lobby. The crowd dispersed immediately after the victims of the violence were taken by ambulances. Pipit and Roxas also intend to leave. But Pipit's steps were held back when someone called out to him.

“Pipit..”.

Head Pipit turned towards the direction of the voice. He was surprised to see a man who had been seven years undiscovered now standing before him. Bayu threw his smile at the woman who had been part of his life seven years ago.

“Mas Bayu.”

“How are you?”

There was no reply from Pipit, only his eyes continued to look at the man before him. Bayu's physique changed slightly, his body more contained and strapping. His face also looked more handsome. But it is not the handsome face of Bayu that makes Pipit glued. The woman did not expect to be able to meet again with the man who had already scratched such a deep wound on her.

“Tan..” call Roxas in a whispering voice, disperse the daydream of Pipit.

“How are you doing?” ask Bayu back.

“Good. Mas Bayu when to return?” Pipit tried to neutralize his feelings.

“Two months ago. I'm taking a job here. It's time I go home, right?”

“Hopefully success. I'll go home first, yeah.”

“Can we meet again?”

“We’ll see.”

Pipit pulled Roxas's hand then immediately left Bayu who was still in his place. Bayu's smile expands to see the woman he really wants to meet. He got word that Pipit did work at this hotel. But he did not expect to meet the woman so soon.

“That's who tan?”

“People don't matter.”

🌸🌸🌸

Ida joyfully welcomes the arrival of Aditya and Dewi. The woman hugged her youngest child. While embracing Aditya's waist, he escorted Aditya into the room. The goddess followed behind. His heart was a little disappointed that Ida did not see him at all.

His head was raised as a hand grabbed his shoulder. Pipit was standing next to him and smiling at him. Her disappointment was treated seeing Pipit's warm attitude towards her.

“Where was his first night? The dudul can break the goal ngga?” whisky Pipit.

“Tante..”.

Pipit chuckled as he looked at the face of the woman who was now his niece flushed red. Judging from the girl's expression, it can be guessed that Aditya has managed to score. The two enter the room and see Ida talking to Aditya.

“Mba.. This is your son-in-law why is he left behind?” ask Pipit when entering the room.

“Mba forgot that Adit was married,” replied Ida origin. Pipit just rolled his eyeballs. The elder sister still could not accept the Goddess completely.

“Yes, ma. Time forgets anyway. Here dear... sorryin my mother, yes.”.

Aditya kissed the Goddess cheek, his wife just smiled faintly. Ida immediately got up from her seat and took Pipit out. Before leaving the room, the woman turned to her son.

“You guys clean up first keep eating dinner together.”

“Iya, ma.”

The goddess opened the suitcase, then started putting the clothes into the closet. Aditya approached and hugged his wife from behind. despite trying to reject, but he knew that the attitude of his mother was a little cold on the Goddess.

“Sorry mom yes, De. Maybe mom still can't accept that her youngest son got married so soon. Mama may be afraid of being rivaled by you.”

“Iya, I have nothing.”

“If you are not comfortable, we do not have to stay here for long.”

“Do not, later mama even more do not like me.”

“Ya. But if you think your attitude has gone too far, you say yes to me.”

The hand of the Goddess released Aditya's embrace on her waist. The woman turned around then looked at the man in front of her. His hands cupped Aditya's face, a smile on his lips.

“I'm nothing. You don't have to worry. If my mom doesn't like me now. I will make him like me and accept me. Do you believe me?”

“Yes, I believe in you. Who can resist the charm of Goddess Mantili?”

“Hihihi. lebay.”

Aditya put his hand on the Goddess' waist then slightly raised his wife's petite body. The goddess screamed stifled as Aditya suddenly lifted her body. Her hands reflexively clung to her husband's neck while bowing her head. Aditya kisses the lips of the Goddess who like having a magnet that keeps pulling her giving kisses.

🌸🌸🌸

Dewi's chest was pounding before dinner with her husband's family for the first time. All family members have gathered in the dining room, just waiting for the newlyweds. Aditya pulled out a chair for his wife.

Ida looked at Aditya who was taking food for the Goddess. The look on his face showed dislike. Both Pipit and Adrian could catch the woman's expression. The goddess who was also aware of it was only able to bow her head.

“Should be a wife who takes food for her husband, not the other way around,” Ida said.

“Once in nothing, ma. This is our first dinner of the same Goddess. He must be groggy, let alone mama see it rich want to eat him aja,” Aditya blinked his eyes on Ida.

“Basic of brats.”

“Iya, I'm naughty. Still lucky Goddess will accept this naughty me.”

Ida turned her gaze in another direction, but no doubt the woman was smiling. He could never be angry at Aditya. His youngest son could always persuade him.

Dinner was finally going to be quiet. As much as possible the Goddess swallowed her food even though it was difficult. He was well aware of the sharp gaze that Ida cast every time she saw him.

After dinner Aditya immediately brought the Goddess to the room. He did not want the Goddess to be more intimidated by the attitude of the mother. Adrian chose to stay at the dining table, accompanying his mother who was cleaning the tableware.

“Ma.. does mom need to behave like that to Dewi?” Adrian look at Ida.

“What's it like?”

“Everyone also knows how mom looks and acts to the Goddess. What's the trouble with being nice to her?”

“Yes, mom really likes it. Mama is still not sincere Adit married so soon.”

“Likes don't like, they're married. Inevitably, you must accept the presence of the Goddess as your daughter-in-law. The more mama hates Goddess, then not only Goddess is injured, but also Adit. I hope mommy can be wise.”

Adrian got up from his seat and left Ida alone there. Ida dropped her ass on the dining chair. The woman was not trying to accept the Goddess. It's just that she's still upset, because Dewi, Aditya must assume more responsibility as a husband at a young age.

When Adrian opens the door to the room, he is surprised to see that Pipit is already inside. The woman sat leaning against the headboard of the bed. Adrian approached and sat down at the side of the bed, close to the aunt.

“Ad... You all right?”

“What does aunt mean?”

“Goddess.I know that you love her. Are you all right? They will stay here for a week.”

“I'm fine. Although it was difficult, I tried to accept the reality. I will try to love the Goddess like my own sister.”

“If you need a friend to tell you a story, don't hesitate to aunt.”

Only a nod of the head was given by Adrian. Pipits inched closer to Adrian then hugged the man's arm. He rested his head on Adrian's shoulder. His meeting with Bayu earlier, still disturbed his mind.

“Tante why?”

“I just met mas Bayu.”

“Om Bayu? Meet where?”

“Di hotel. Apparently he was there again. He's back from Berlin.”

There was a heavy breath of pipit. Although seven years have passed, but the woman has not really been able to forget the man. She and Bayu have been dating for three years. Bayu's parents do live in Magelang, and the two have known each other since childhood.

As soon as Pipit graduated High School, Bayu expressed his feelings. They were officially dating for three years. But in the fourth year, Bayu decided to go to Berlin to take a residency program. He cut off the relationship with Pipit. Pipit who was 21 years old at that time was of course very injured. After completing her studies, she moved to Bandung and lived with her sister.

Pipit continued his S2 studies in Bandung and got his first job in the city. But he then chose to move to Japan after getting a job offer there. Moreover, Wardani once betrothed him to a man he did not love. She decided to go away from the family. And until now, the fate pipit has not been able to open his heart to anyone.

“Om Bayu say what?”

“Ngga says nothing. Just news. But it looks like he's not married yet.”

“Tante want to reverse it with him?”

“Ngga tau, Ad. Aunt is still hurting just like her. Mutusin the relationship, go without a message, never give news and now he comes again. Does he think aunty's a port? As if she were leaning back and sailing.”

“If aunty doesn't want to have a relationship with him again, aunty better avoid.”

“Iya. I want it so too.”

“Lagian aunt already has a candidate.”

“Who?” Pipit raised his head then looked at Adrian.

“Roxas.. hahaha.”.

“Asem.”

Pipit rubbed Adrian's face with his hands, then overstretched his nephew. But Adrian still laughed even though the aunt tortured him.
