About Varest

What is friendship?, someone once said that a friend would hold back his laughter and help you wake up when you fall. But a friend will laugh out loud until they fall.

Likewise with friends who will only rub your shoulders to calm when you slump and cry. However, a friend will hug and hold your hand to stand upright and help restore your laughter.

I don't know how many times Andi paced in front of the door of his car parked in one of the restaurants chosen as a place to meet someone he had contacted last night.

His heart thumped even more as his cell phone rang a sign of an incoming call, he was worried that his plan last night would not go as smoothly as expected, by taking his breath slowly and throwing him away the man began to pick up his call.

“…..”

“I just arrived, if you have come later directly ask to be delivered to the room I have reserved"

“…..”

“Alright, I'll wait”

After the phone connection was cut off Andi stepped foot must have entered the restaurant and was greeted by one of the waiters to deliver him to the room he had ordered earlier.

Andi deliberately chose a private room to discuss something with the person who will meet him considering the discussion that will be discussed is something sensitive that could happen watering scenes and even slaps at the end of the story.

And all the expectations that he had imagined a few minutes ago were broken one by one along with the emergence of a middle-aged pair and a woman who was holding a cute boy using a black het beret.

Sigap Andi stood up and crucified the two middle-aged men.

“Have a long wait, Ndi?” asked Papa Abhi while patting Andi's shoulder gently

“Not yet Om, I am also new to” he said, “Sit first Om, Auntie, you are also Re” he continued to allow the three to sit.

“Ji not sat down well, Om?” Zee's protest was unnamed.

Andi turned to look at Zee who was standing next to Rea interspersed with light laughter he approached the boy and stroked Zee's head slowly, “Sure Zee also had to sit, but the seat should be the same Om”

“Ji does not want to sit with Om, because Om does not bring Papa here” said Zee throw his face to the side.

“The father Zee will work to make a lot of money to buy Zee a banana milk that many” persuaded Andi to reach the body of the boy in front of him who was sulking.

“Ji do not want a lot of banana milk, one big box is enough that is important Papa quickly go home”

Andi smiled thinly while turning to Rea, “Zee asked Mama first well, only able to meet Papa” he said who suddenly made the woman called his name was silent misbehavior.

Fifteen minutes passed, the ordered food was available on a long table made of teak wood with glass lining the top surface of the table. Varest deliberately chose lunch time for his meeting with the Rea family because he thought it was the right time to talk about the problem

befalling his best friend's family, at least he already felt he had the energy of his food supply if he had to argue.

“Actually what do you want to discuss, Son?, Om think it's something that is very important until you have to order a private room like this” said Papa Abhi started, said, he was quite curious as to the reason his daughter-in-law's best friend asked to meet personally with her family.

Mama Nimas apologized for what Varest had done in the past but could not explain in detail for the chronology of the accident to happen she simply said that it was not the child's fault.

Andi nodded faintly, “Tante was right, this is about my best friend Varest” he replied as he watched Rea's expression suddenly quietly stop his mouthful.

“But, we better finish the lunch first”

Papa Abhi and Mama Jenny agreed, they continued the lunch that was delayed due to initial discussion about the purpose of the meeting.

Lunch dishes have been toilet left only drinks and dessert as a dessert menu, Zee who so enjoyed the menu seemed to pat several times his distended stomach while smiling widely.

“Ji likes to eat this cake” show on dessert popping coffee powder, “Ji seling eat this at Papa kelja” place

“But Zee can not eat much, later his teeth hurt again. Zee doesn't want to eat your mush, does he?”

“Oh yes ,later Papa Kasian will not be late at night because Ji nangis transparent kayak first” the boy was downcast sadly considering the incident of him who had a toothache and made the Papa not sleep all night.

Rea who saw Zee's sad face immediately moved the cake to the middle of the table. However, previously scooped once for him to give to the child.

“Then this is the last cookie feed for Zee, smart children must have healthy teeth so it must be lacking

eat sweet”

“Zee understands, right?”

The boy nodded, slowly opening his mouth to accept the mother's bribe, the people who were there also smiled at how obedient Zee was to his parents.

Andi's eyes crystallize as Zee sits opposite him, his memory twisted where his best friend Varest is forced to become a father and mother to the child he found in an accident three years ago.

Until with all the courage to start an initial chat before going to a more core topic for his plan. The man took the earphones in his bag and handed it to Zee to wear it and played a video of the boy's favorite cartoon, after he felt Zee had focused on his own world, finally Andi began to sound.

“You know Re, Zee had a high fever at the age of one year”

“Salah, I do not know for sure the age of Zee at that time because neither Varest nor Papa and Mama no one knows it, what is clear is that the incident happened a month after Varest made Zee's birthday party he said it was a memento for Zee despite having to make up the date”

It seemed that the three people in front of Andi were silently listening.

“The birthday party was made six months after the accident and everyone agreed by taking care of various preparations. For a few months Varest only took care of Zee himself until he started building a business and started leaving Zee to Mama Nimas while working”

“That day Mama Nimas called Varest to stop by to buy hot medicine for Zee on her way home. But, because too worried Varest went home early and drove one of the employees for fear of getting stuck in traffic if using car” Andi paused his speech, his eyes peered at the expression

the faces of the three people in front of him.

“And because of worry and too rash it finally he had an accident”
