SCANDAL MYSELF AND YOURSELF

Scandal - #4 Kalea Arka Raditya

I've been in the US for 7 years. Even now it is not only S1, the master's degree I have obtained. Here I am not only in college but also looking for work experience in my field and taking part in several competitions to add to my portfolio. I really mean it in achieving my goals. During my time in the US, I rarely went back to Indonesia. The last time I came home was 2 years ago when my grandmother was sick and what was painful was that she died after I arrived in Indonesia. Grandma was really waiting for me to come.

Now after a long time in the US, Mama asked me to go home and work in Indonesia only. It's very tough because the opportunities here are very big. In addition to my work in a fairly large contractor and design company, I also took on outside work with Simon. Even the salary, bonuses and bonuses are big enough to be able to enjoy in this country. But since my mother asked me to come home from 6 months ago until she was sick I finally relented and resigned from the office and while making sure my work was done well I only took a job with Simon only.

During these 7 years also I do not have a girlfriend here, many students from Indonesia who clearly tried to approach but I was not able to remove the shadow Ina. The beautiful, innocent girl who always blushes her face when embarrassed, she really clings to me. I don't know if his life is happy without me. I don't know.

Because often I refuse the girl who approached me even heard the news I like a fellow. But I'm a bitch. It doesn't matter to me if they stay away from me.

"Lea, when you go back to Indonesia?"

"Next weeks. Why?"

"You should finish your project before you leave.

"I have been finished, and tomorrow we can meet for a last time."

"How can?"

"Finished early?"

"Yes"

"Just don't sleep well for a couple weeks"

"You are crazy. If you don't finish that project you can go sick. And I must take care of you."

"Haha.you are so sweet. Thank you for taking care of me all of time for seven year"

"You are my Brother. That why we are together for a long time."

"What do you do in Indonesia next?"

"I don't know, I haven't planned"

"If I have Project, I'll give you"

"Thank you Bro"

"Are you making a appointment tomorrow?"

"Yes, I am."

"Ok then, I'll go to Grocery Shop after that you can make a food for us."

"You should treat me for a last time. Why do you make me cook some food for us?"

"Your just leaving next week, why should I treat you today?"

"Oh, then you treat me on Friday? It's ok. I'll be waiting for Friday. Thank you before"

"You're jerk Lea"

"Thank you"

And since she's a native here, her mother often comes to deliver food, even though simon doesn't like it, but I like it. I miss mama. But I can't go home often. That's why 6 years is enough for my mom to stay away from me. And also in 2 months Anjani's sister will be married. It increasingly requires me to go home so as not to get the predicate of the ungodly sister.

Ina, how are you?

I'll be home next week.

Will you still be waiting for me?

Those words kept getting stuck in my head.

I don't know why every time I go home it's always what I think. What I expected after leaving her for 6 years.

"Lea, we should go now"

Simon knocked on my door.

"I'm ready"

"We meet mom and daddy at an Airport"

"Why did you make your parent both to come?

"They love you too like a son, they want deliver their son. Come on's. We will be late if we Argue now."

"Thanks man's. Thanks for everything."

It is not easy to make friends like brothers. There's a lot that Simon and I face and do together.

I said goodbye to Simon and his Parents, I don't know when I'll see them again.

They were my family while I was in America.

Lily even cried as I hugged her. I'm gonna miss him so much.
