THE BARA OF THE PAST
The Fate Knitted
To love means to have. Lies to those who say love doesn't have to be. Love is caring, supportive, and supportive. For Devano Pramudya, it was inevitable. Since getting to know Liodra Audrey Suroso, Devano knew the girl was special and indeed created for her. The frail and spoiled Liodra fulfills her strong, quiet and lonely self.
God never messes with feelings. Devano decides to get Liodra, embracing him in halal ties, and endures him to separate them. One intention that repeatedly burned his efforts grabbed the heart of the girl who said some friends, face similar to him. That's the first clue, couples who are paired are usually similar.
The next clue is the opposite but mutually fulfilling nature. Devano is very meticulous and calculations are very different from Liodra who is careless and haphazard. The longer they get to know each other, the more intertwined feelings and can't escape each other the more chained. Inseparable.
Starting from their introduction at the Blue Cafe, Liodra was able to evoke a warm side in Devano who had been unaware. Devano only understands his life is to fight for the happiness of his mother after the death of his father.
The only woman to be happy with is Eva Purwandari, the biological mother who carved her body. Her mother's happiness is her responsibility, it's not negotiable. For the sake of mother, Devano is willing to work hard since at Junior High School.
Starting from a leaflet that suddenly floated carried by the wind hit his face while he was pedaling a bicycle to school. Tear leaflets contain vacancies working in laundry.
Maybe it was an opportunity God had deliberately sent. Devano proposed. Not knowing what entered Mother Mundira's mind, the laundry owner finally accepted a part-time employee to work in the laundry after school.
The job was followed until Devano graduated High School. Washing customer's dirty clothes, drying, ironing, sometimes also become a courier to deliver neat and fragrant laundry. Not a hard job if you are used to it, it's just that Devano must be smart to divide time for school and work.
His mother has a basic kiosk in Pasar Gede. Devano's life is very simple, but that doesn't mean he gave up after graduating High School. His mother always advised Devano to continue school. Educated people are much more valued than those who are just high school graduates. That's my opinion like his experience all along. Finally, the only paddy field, the father's relics were sold for tuition. Once again Devano was struck by the fate that forced him to become a strong man.
One morning, when his mother fell in the bathroom due to symptoms of a stroke that required his mother to stay at home, Devano again realized his responsibilities were increasing. Previously, the mother had suffered from shortness of breath and was indicated to have TB disease. It is hard, but God never wrongly educates someone and gives tests.
Mother's kiosks in Pasar Gede were forced to be sold for medical expenses. The rest were bought washing machines. Devano learns to be his own boss. Time continued to pass as if flogging endlessly the back of a Junior High boy who grew up to be a teenager, who soon grew up.
After college, several small laundry branches stood in various strategic places. His income was enough to support his mother. Eventually the recovering mother took over the laundry business, as Devano decided to accept the offer of a friend who had gotten a job.
"If you want unlimited income, be marketing, bro," said Faizal, a friend of the campus.
"Bonus marketing is very promising. If you are active, can only close five units of the car in a month, your bonus can be equivalent to the net profit of all your laundry branches, for one year," he continued. Devano. What a very exciting job!
This is where Devano is now. Accepting and enjoying the challenge of selling a car that gives him a big bonus. Accustomed to tenacious and persistent since adolescence, every month Devano always managed to sell a car even though one or two units. Over time its rank as marketing continues to rise. He was last in the Bronze Marketing position.
All of her achievements began the morning before her friends worked. Devano early did the job of serving people, the prospective buyers. The habit of many years since he first became a laundry worker is to serve.
It is not difficult to learn human habits and habits. Especially the rich, the almost rich, or the pretend rich who need a new car. Either because it needs to support the work, as a means of earning income, or just showing caste, even though buying in installments. For Devano all customers are special.
The door of the white house opened wide. The pale-faced girl looked at him sharply. When the voice of the man from inside the house asked her to open the door, the pale-faced girl looked even more pale.
"Mas Devano please come in. Whoa ... You're on time once." A man of about sixty years of age greeted him with a bare face. The pale-faced girl looked frightened then turned around with a panicked expression, leaving Devano and Pak Surya who immediately invited her in.
"That car is for my son, Zara. He wants to learn driving. Several times he used his mother's car. For her birthday next week, we agreed to give her a car." Surya Winardi asked for an explanation of some features of the car which Devano then answered patiently.
"Gee, you're really amazing. It is not wrong that the choice of the father falls on our product ...." Devano started serving Surya Winardi. If you have decided to buy it means that the customer already understands the product. Just add with excellent service then the clossing will soon be in the grasp.
The news of blessing that has come down from Dewanti delivered by Liodra earlier, he deliberately placed as a mood booster to invite luck. At that time Devano thought there were no more obstacles, obstacles or difficulties that would block him to have Liodra. His heart bloomed instantly.
"Well Mr. Surya, the unit will be ready at the time we agreed and we will immediately deliver to the hotel where Zara has a birthday. Thanks for your trust."
Devano shook Mr. Surya's hand tightly.
"It's nice working with you, Mas Devano. May this be the best gift for Zara. Don't forget our deal."
The man, who had partially grayed hair, patted Devano on the shoulder. Mr. Surya delivered it to the door of the house.
"Basic men don't know themselves! How dare you come here!" Zara, the grim-faced girl suddenly ran down the stairs and rushed towards Devano.
Mr. Surya swiftly caught the body of his daughter who was raging about to hit Devano. His body was crying for release. A woman follows from behind Zara, helping Mr. Surya calm the girl who is in high emotion.
"Mas Devano just go home, Zara's fine. Mbok Warni shut the door now!" surya Winardi's orders to Mbok Warni.
"Good, Sir." The woman called Mbok Warni was moved to close the door after nodding respectfully to Devano.
Devano took a few steps back, once again his eyes staring at the door of the white-fenced mansion.
Luxury does not always guarantee happiness. Zara is one of the people who look unhappy with the luxury that lies before their eyes.
I don't know, Devano felt Zara's cold eyes hit her heart. Weak look for help. The cold face until this moment may not have known there will be a special celebration prepared for him, and Devano will be involved in it. There was a strange vibration that Devano felt. The young man who was at the peak of his senses did not realize, that morning, a destiny upon him was being knitted by angels.
