The Fate Or Destiny

Eps. 33. Routine of Aja Sih...

Keke stared at the bewildered sacks containing several types of vegetables as well as several types of seasonings, a lot.

"Tante Wis... Where did this come from, who brought it?"

"Don't tell me from whom, say it's from Rurukan-Tomohon..."

"For us? I never ordered it..."

"Yes, I'm telling you for Renske Supit."

"They didn't ask for money or just a phone number?"

"Nobody said they'd call Keke..."

Are they people he knows, because they have his cell phone number? Keke picked up the phone he had left in his kitchen cabinet. No missed calls. There was only a message from Benaya. Almost he ignored it again, but he remembered Ben had complained about Keke who did not care about the chat or call from Ben.

There was a chat kangen in this morning. Keke a small smile, looking for smile emoticons and. send. Ben expressed his love more and more and more boldly. Slowly also the figure of an annoying sister changed into a loving lover figure in Keke's heart, he began to get used to all the affections of a Ben for him.

The new phone is already on... Not satisfied apparently only received a smile in the form of a yellow ball. Video call brother Bens...

"Yes..."

Keke positioned his phone upright leaning over his kitchen cabinet and directly stacked his groceries from the supermarket into a special storage of seasoning bottles. Ben was a little surprised Keke would pick up the call, usually not.

"Hey. Look here dong..."

"Again neatihin goods, Brother Bens said aja.. much work awaits..."

"OK. ok my dear is super busy..."

"This is my rush hour, just want a portion of food to be loud, it's time-consuming...what is needed?"

"God, there's no sweetness..."

"It's because I'm not that mineral water..."

"Hahaha. can be funny to you too..."

A little smile, what's so funny?

"Where have you been? Tumben don't wear the same apron hat...?"

"Heaey..."

Keke finished composing the bottle and seasoning packaging. He disappears from Ben's cell phone screen, picks up his official clothes before continuing to work in the kitchen.

"Yes..."

"Where was that from?"

"Supermarkets, shopping..."

Keke answered short while wearing a head covering and then his apron, both black. Then Keke started wearing his pink gloves. Ben watched the scene with a smile, although the wide view was limited but seeing Keke who was not shy again made Ben serene, the distance getting thinner between the two of them, the distance between them, it means a lot for Ben who has made a lot of plans for both of them.

"Sexy.you are like that..."

"The description is not ah..."

"Hahaha... In the office has often seen the strange clothes that are not finished sewn. Not yet his plastic boot.. hahaha."

Keke smiles knots and glances at the look to the feet... Usual yes the chefs wear apron... what is unique? He was a sultry but he was concerned with food hygiene, his troops also used the same equipment, like a complete PPE they were the kitchen crew Keke's Catering.

"Aren't you busy?"

"Busy anyway, but again kangen you, so just call, again need the spirit too, see you so much more enthusiasm for work today..."

Keke glanced left-right, hopefully Ben's words were not heard by his troops, thankfully they again concentrate the same work each.

"Yes first, I have to work..."

"Okay sweety.. I'm also busy later in the day I ask klappertart I will send with our food..."

"Yes..."

Keke turned off the phone. Had to move quickly now, dozens of bushels waiting for him, including his girlfriend's lunch with his staff.

"Tante Lenda has started..."

Keke joined aunt Lenda who began to take the side dishes to several challengers.

"Yes. Keke, tomorrow if we go to the market just buy tomatoes, candlenut same garlic, that sacks aunty already check everything we can use for cooking tomorrow even this week..."

"What's that sack of auntie in?"

"Borang red, ginger, turmeric, chives, chili peppers same as cayenne pepper. There are carrots, cabbage the same potatoes."

"There are mustard also Ke. many trees," aunt Wisye chimed.

"Who sent you?"

"There's an acquaintance or family time?"

Aunt Wisye was also curious, so many food ingredients out of whom. When asked who the driver was from, the one man who dropped all of it did not give any information.

"I don't think I know anyone Tomohon, my mom's family isn't there either..."

"Emm... Keke's papa family?"

Aunt Lenda asked the origin, but Keke became stunned...

"I don't know if anyone lives there either."

Keke knew where the clan attached to his name came from. Opanya Keke is surnamed Supit from Tomohon, but both opa and papa as far as Keke know they have long lived in Leilem, in his village of Oma Beatrice. Yep... Keke remembered that Beatrice's mother was his father's mother, often repeated the same mother as the reason her mother and father separated.

"A lot for our stock, chili, turmeric and ginger can even make a month, just clean in the freezer. Red onions are also resistant as long as they are not stored in damp places. Vegetables are also a lot, even now confused thinking about the menu, it is impossible that-that's all this week," aunt Wisye said while checking again the contents of the sack.

"That's easy, we think later.that must be told by Ety, anything he doesn't need to be ready for again. Keke called Ety..."

"That too. we used to subscribe to Ety..."

"Nothing Keke, we also do not know can deliver much like this..."

"But it's not good to use that, don't know from whom yet..."

"It's a food that's not durable, Keke. we use it later."

"I'm not this ordinary, I owe you..."

"Keke.. diibiarin in the sack is also fast rotten, redundant will be."

"Yes, but even bother to clean it all..."

Keke thought about the efficiency of work as well as time.

"Later aunt Wisye clean, Keke. briefly it's okay to go home in the afternoon."

"That's a lot of aunts, I can't help clean up this afternoon, I'm the same Titin there's a cake order and klappertart for mayor Rudis."

"Tante Lenda did not come home either. help Wisye..."

"Okay.. a kind aunt. thanks a lot, I'll count overtime..."

"Ehh, it's not necessary, it's Wis..."

"Yes no need. We both need the same Keke, want to ask for help..."

"What a tan. if I could..."

"Len.. You're the one who talked..."

"Do not be ashamed..."

Keke looked at the two mothers who seemed timidly expressing their intentions. Keke is grateful to get people who are loyal. The beginning of people who work with him like to not feel at home two or three months have stopped. Those who are now, aunt Wisye, aunt Lenda, Titin and Tole have been with him for several years. Aunt Lenda had stopped caring for her sick husband for several months.

"Ehmm. Aunt Lenda same Wisye can not stay here just, Keke's room under the empty. His son Wisye this month will move to housing in Minut there, far if here how many times to ride the angkot. Aunt Lenda really hope to not contract the house again, two more months is finished, but two months will soon be, and the aunt's grandson also asked to go home to his mother's house, so auntie's gonna live alone."

"Oh.. I see..."

"Yes... Keke, aunty also thought that if there is another job would be better, we just here do not need to go home, work time can be longer."

"It's up to aunty both, if you want it. but I think first about the salary if you add hours of work..."

"It's up to Keke if that's the case, what's important is that we don't think about contracting or sniffing anymore..."

"Mmmh... Just let if you add hours like to be counted overtime. later I think yes how good, let us both taste good. But the room cleaned itself, it has been a few months not used. There is a bed with a closet, in the room there is also a TV. it is up to you to move when..."

"Yes Keke, thank you, aunty Lenda tau Keke don't mind... Keke is good, many blessings if people are good..."

"Amiin aunty..."

"This is the proof..."

Keke smiled.just think of it like that, raw food ingredients that many out of who, still curious until this moment. If calculated the value of the rupiah is quite he saves on spending.

A gift, big or small, many or few, is worth being grateful for. Those who receive with gratitude do not hesitate to give as well. Sometimes people are enthusiastic when receiving, but depressed when giving...
