THE ABOVE THE CLOUD(ABC)
17. Accompanying Eating Her Daughter from Far Away
You could say, Reksa was the youngest among the guests present. Some others took with them their children, or their students, but not much is worth noting. People ignore.
Juno begins talks with the Trio, showing how close the two are. Although the Trio post would be completed soon he would not stop in line. Mutuals just put on a business smile throughout the chat.
“How has your project been lately?”
Mutual nodded and answered truthfully. “Good, good. Thank God, smoothly.”
“Hahaha, he said those projects were averages from State Enterprises?”
Muta nodded, not fast and not slow, he replied. “Most of my projects focus on the construction of agencies, schools of service, and so on…. There are some projects that are hampered because the permission is down... still in wait, for the construction.”.
“Oh yes, I know that, the new one happened right? Now is not a permission anymore, but approval.”
Mutual nodded again and replied.
The three exchanged words before returning to the original topic. “But Mr. Ilyas how ya, haduh,” Trio shook his head. “I guess even though he's a very caring person, I admire him. But apply like that in the public is not appropriate the term is that, yes.
This topic has been discussed three times. The mutual just pretends to be unconscious. By the way, Mr. Ilyas was the Minister of Antiquities who had gone viral before.
“Indeed, Mr. Ilyas who is usually dormant was suddenly so enthusiastic, surprised me too.” Juno murmured. Muta in heart raised his eyebrows. The two people in front of him were so excited about playing the drama.
“But I don't see the development of that ancient discovery.” The trio glanced at Reksa. “Many now fake items that he considers ancient relics. There are also original ancient relics but considered cheap goods. This is what makes people easily cheated.”
Mutuals don't talk about many things. As a construction guy, he had nothing to do with research. But as the one who made this ancient storehouse, he had little knowledge.
Mysterious smiling mutual.
Seeing the warm reaction of Muta, the two got even more excited. What a long banquet.
****
At six in the afternoon, Mutual with Joe decided to go home. Because this banquet is not an important event and the business is finished, Reksa is trying to catch up with his home clock. Sera must have been waiting in front of the wall clock.
“A group of people underworked.” The mutual exhales and loosens its tie. He closed his eyes for a moment while Joe sat in front with the driver exchanging light talks.
“Pak, want to eat dinner first or go straight home?” ask Joe on the sidelines. He did not ask if his boss would go to the office first. Since morning his boss has been restless about not being able to pick up little lady.
“Wait.” Reksa pulled out her phone and called the Sri Caregiver's phone number.
“Halo, sir?”
“Bi? Sera is?”
Hearing that, the nanny Sri immediately whispered like she was afraid the little miss heard. “Iya, Sir. Miss is waiting in the middle room.she does not want to be taken to the room or play. Let alone eat..”
Muta frowned. “Oke.”
He switched to Sera's smartwatch.
“Ha—,”
“Papa!!”
“Sera hasn't eaten?”
“Papa Sela wait!”
“..Yes, Papa is on the road. Sera why haven't you eaten?”
“Sela wait.” Sera. Insist not to eat until Mutual gets home. If once twice the mutual can agree. But the company can't always go home on time.
If he says he's coming home at this hour but it's too late, Sera will be late to eat. This cannot be allowed in the long run.
“Sera eat first, yes.”
“Sela wait....,” she is not hungry, she wants to eat with her father.
Mutuals do not think. Could it be that by eating, Sera would miss her return?? He doesn't understand the mind of a three-year-old.
Although there was a sense of pleasure in his heart, but Sera's health was still the main one. Recalling the small and thin body of her little girl, Muta hardened her heart.
“Sera eat first, later after meal, Papa directly until.”
“.....”
The mutual repeats again. “After eating, Papa has arrived home.”
“Oh..,”
“Yes? Sera eat, while chatting with papa?” without waiting for Sera to answer, Reksa immediately called Caregiver Sri through Sera's watch.
Hearing the instructions, Nanny Sri immediately prepared a meal and brought Sera to the dining table.
Mutuals arranged that eating anywhere, even if it was still small, Sera had to sit at the dining table. Can't Caretaker Sri feed into all the rooms.
Sera also began to get used to eating at the dinner table while with Reksa. He thought his father was always right. And what Sera had seen all along was a mistake. When she saw mothers running to feed their children who were playing, Sera thought it was natural.
But at school he was invited to sit in an orderly manner when eating.
From the beginning Sera was not a very active child, so she accepted easily the habits that Mutual set.
“What's the same meal?”
Sera, who had been eating seriously, began to remember that her father was on the phone. The little girl stared innocently at Nanny Sri, in her hand was a piece of naget.
“This naget.” whispered Nanny Sri.
“Naget.” reset Sera on her father.
Mutual asked again. “What taste?”
Sera: ???
The black moon's eyes stared again at Nanny Sri, but not waiting for Nanny Sri to reply, Sera immediately replied. “Manic, salty. Taste good!”
It was silent a few seconds before Muta's laughter broke across.
“Enak?”
“Enak..”
“Sayurnya eaten?”
At first Sera ate all the food on her plate. But the more he got here, he started to touch the meat more often. Although Sera always spends food on her plate, Reksa always reminded. Children seem to have a natural rejection of vegetables compared to meat.
“One Bi Sii Delicious.” Sera looks lagging for a moment. “Sayul," error.
“Iya, vegetable. What vegetable is it?”
“Sayul ail.” says Sera spirit while scooping vegetable tofu-taogenya into the mouth.
“...” the way Sera insists on answering and exchanging words sounds very adorable. Not to mention that sometimes Reksa does not understand what Sera is talking about, making Sera look funny and innocent at once in her eyes.
“Sera wants pudding, no?” ask Reksa suddenly.
“Mau, would! Sela pudding likes!”
“Yes, Papa buyin yes. But Sera ate the right.”
“Take a meal!”
“Iya,” after saying a few words, Reksa disconnected the connection.
After chatting with his daughter, the tenderness on Muta's face did not immediately disappear. He pressed one number and waited before Wana's voice sounded across.
Wana, who intends not to overtime because her boss does not return to the office, returns to sit once she receives a call from Reksa. His hunch says coming home at first this time will be off.
“Try you all looking for education of vegetables, fruits, object names and the like. If you can not the origin.” Mutual was silent for a moment. “You know now that videos for kids aren't all good? Disgusting pictures, rich in films, yellow-yellow for washing dishes. For example, rich. I don't want that. If there is a good but paid buy it all.”
“...Yes, Mr.” can know how good? Wana has to watch it herself!
“Send tonight before nine, yes.”
“!!” Wana sat back down, taking out her bottle and cell phone from the bag.
“Iya, Sir. I send before 9.”
Does he know he should be happy or sad? His overtime again runs not for the busyness of his boss, but for little miss!!
Wana grumbled long before she drowned watching the educational video.
