The Crown that Be snatched

Find jobs.

Safia stopped her steps as she stopped at a pretty crowded eatery that was near her home.

Safia went into the place to eat. He asked a woman, one of the servants who was in that place.

"Sir, there are no job openings here?" ask Safia.

"Does she have experience working in a cafe or restaurant?" the woman asked back.

"I've never worked in a cafe or restaurant. But yesterday I was working in laundry" Safia replied.

"Yes, I'm looking forward to working in laundry. They also need employees. But he wants to have experience working in a cafe or restaurant."

"Oh so."

"Yes Ma'am. If you want to apply for a job here, I think it will be in vain. You're sure Mbak will be rejected if you don't have work experience at a restaurant."

"Oh. So. Yes, if so, thank you, Mother."

"Yes Ma'am. You're welcome."

Safia looked sad when she heard the woman's words. Safia has been looking for work all day, but until now Safia has not found a job as well. Salary and severance money from Bu Windi has also been thinned. Fortunately, Safia's contract money this month has been paid off. So he didn't think too much about his contract costs.

"Well, I have to get to work where else. I'm really confused. I have no experience except working in laundry. All cafes and restaurants require only experienced employees. And applying for a job as a shopkeeper there are also no vacancies," Safia said as she stepped away from the place.

Safia stopped her steps when she heard the voice of someone calling her.

"Mak Safia...!" exclamation Resti.

Safia looked back. He was surprised when he saw that Blessi son of Maryam was already behind him.

Resti who already knew Safia hurriedly approached Safia.

"Sir, where are you going?" ask Resti.

Safia smiled as she looked at Resti.

"Resti. Are you in Jakarta? said you were in Bandung with your brother?"

"Yes Ma'am. I graduated college. And now I work in the office."

Safia smiled.

"Oh yeah? Mercifully. Where do you live now?" ask Safia .

"I used to live in my sister's house. But it's been a week I've occupied mom's house."

"You live in the old house, right?"

Resti nodded. "Yes, Mother."

"Why don't you ever play at Ma'am's house. Our house is close."

"Sorry Mother. I haven't been able to play anywhere. Oh yea. Must be a big kid, huh?"

"Yes. He's big."

"Oh yes. By the way, Safia Where are you going?" ask Resti.

"You're looking for Res work. But it's hard because you don't have any experience."

"Lho, you don't work in laundry anymore?"

Safia shakes.

"No. Laundry Bu Windi bankrupt Res. And Bu Windi's family has also moved to the village. They said they wanted to work in the village."

"Oh..." Resti mangosteen heard Safia's words.

" So, is Safia looking for work?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Oh yes. If you want to find work, then go to my house. I'll find a job. I will ask my friends. Who knows if they know the job vacancy info for Mbak Safia."

Safia smiled. "There's a job for me."

"Many jobs if you want to run. Where does Mbak Safia want to work? in the laundry again?"

"Where to Res. Mah's work, anything. The important thing is halal and the place is not far from Ma'am's house and Anna's school. If it's far away, you can't control Anna."

"Yes, I'll find you a job. I'll ask the same info my friends?"

"Thank you Res."

"Yes Ma'am. You're welcome."

This afternoon, Anna was still sitting on the front porch of her house. She was waiting for her mother to come home. Safia had left home since.

"Where exactly is mom. Why didn't he come home" Anna said.

"Well, if you go and go home long."

Anna got up from her seat. He's going to go inside his house. Suddenly, Safia called out to him.

Anna looked towards her mother. He immediately frowned when he saw Safia. Safia with Resti then approached towards Anna.

Anna looked at Safia sharply.

"Where did the mother come from? I was waiting for my mother to know. But until the afternoon, the mother did not come home" said Anna who looked upset at Safia.

"Lho, Anna. Did you say this morning, if you want to go to work."

"But why did it have to be this afternoon."

"Yes sorry mother. Because you are applying for work, not in one place. But sleep in a lot of places, baby."

"Continue now you've got a job?"

Safia was silent and looked sad. After that he nodded.

"Not Nak. Mommy hasn't gotten a job."

"Keep, tomorrow you'll go back to work and leave me at home alone?"

"No dear. Mommy wants to nemenin you first at home."

Resti smiled as she looked at Anna.

"Hi Anna" said Resti.

Anna looked at Resti fixedly. He doesn't recognize Resti.

"Who is Bun?" ask Anna.

"This is Aunt Resti Anna" Safia replied.

"Anna still remembers the same Aunt, when Anna baby Aunt was often carrying Anna," said Resti trying to remind Anna of her past.

Anna quiet. He doesn't remember Resti at all. Because when Resti left Jakarta, Anna was very small.

Safia breathed in.

"Anna must have forgotten yes, same Aunt Resti. Aunt Resti is the son of Miss Maryam who lives in the house next door. He recently returned from Bandung. And now Aunt Resti has worked here and will settle here" Safia explained.

"Oh..." Anna mangut-mangut understood.

"Resti, let's go to Res. Come by the house." Safia invited Resti to enter her house.

Resti nodded." Yes Ma'am. Thanks." Thanks."

Resti, Anna, and Safia then enter the house. They then sat on the sofa of Safia's living room.

"Res, what do you want to drink?" ask Safia at Resti.

"Not bother Ma'am. In a minute, I'm going home too."

"You just got home from work, Res?" ask Safia.

Resti nodded. "Yes, Mother."

"How many months have you worked in the office?"

"It's been three months ago Ma'am approx."

"Thank God you're working now. Ma'am listen to him."

"Yes Ma'am. Thank goodness."

Anna, who had been feeling chirped by Resti and Safia, got up from her seat.

"Ma, I'll go to the room first."

"Oh yes Anna."

Anna then went to her room with her face bent.

"Anna why Ma'am? from earlier what I saw was he pouting all the time?" ask Resti.

"Let's ajalah. Anna is so used to it. Don't think about it. He must be upset with me again, because from this morning, I left. And until the afternoon I just got home."

"Oh. So. I thought, Anna doesn't like to see me coming."

"No. He's just as upset as I am. He just saw you. So he's still embarrassed. He also wants to play with you."

"Yes, Mother."

"Anna's a shy kid. He also does not get along easily with new people. Long time to adapt."

"His name is also the children. Anna is so beautiful, Mom. Look who the hell? is his father or is he similar to Safia?"

"You think?"

"Likeness with Mbak Safia just a little. Just his dimples doang. Must be something else that looks like her dad." Yeah."

"Well, maybe."
