The Forgotten Asmara

The Forgotten Asmara
Juna and asmara.



Agatha arrived in Jakarta this afternoon..


The flight this time was exhausting for him. Agatha grabbed her bag and searched her phone. Agatha deactivated airplane mode on her phone. Instantly many notifications of incoming messages from byan, but agatha did not open the message. Agatha chose to continue her journey home in search of a taxi.


Arriving home, Agatha immediately settles down on her beloved bed. At this time his father is going to the office, agatha is only accompanied by his household assistant named Minah's mother.


"Agatha?.." The sound of Umi andryani melqngkah approached him in the room.


"Eye?" Agatha grabbed his umyad hand and regretted it.


"You're tired, aren't you? Where is mas byan? umi didn't see him in this house?" Umi Andryani dizzy looking for the existence of byan.


"Umi. mas byan immediately returned to Jogja again after dropping off atha." Agatha sought an excuse, she did not want umi andryani to fuss over her return which was not delivered by byan.


I'm sorry Atha had to lie...


"Loh! how could that be tha?" Umi andryani is upset.


"Not what Umi, mas byan had a sudden affair in his office! Very urgent!" Agatha tried to convince umi.


"Experience, umi will scold him!"


"Umi, come on, there's no question. Atha arrived safely. Mas byan is the person in charge of umi, responsible for driving Atha home and responsible also with his office."


"But tha,..."


"Umi, pity mas byan if scolded? must be very tired.."


"Hmmm well, umi won't scold him. But still Umi will lecture byan later!


"Hm.. Umi, atha got souvenirs from jogja." Agatha tried to divert the conversation to umi.


***


Byan kept looking at his phone, his message seemed to be unread by agatha. Byan tried to call agatha byan's phone call was immediately answered.


"Hallo tha have you arrived?" Byan immediately distanced his phone from the ear after hearing a loud voice across it.


[Assalamualaikummmmmmmm!!]


"Ommmi? Waalaikumsalam.. Agatha where's umi?"


[You're outrageous byan?]


"Umi, byan's sorry.." Byan took a long breath. Surely uminya will scold him for not delivering agatha to Jakarta as promised.


[Bijan.. Why take Agatha for just a minute? Why not stop by the house first? Can't the office be postponed first?]


Byan did not understand the general speech that continues to babble on the phone.


[Tomorrow Umi will find an assistant for you. If you have interests like this you can be replaced by your assistant! Umi won't scold you, it's because of agatha's request. Surely you are very tired because you have to go back and forth jogja-jakarta-jogja again. Yes, rest, son. Agatha is taking a shower. Assalamualaikum]


Umi Andryani disconnected her phone. Byan was astonished to hear the ravings of the uminya.


"O Allah is Agatha, do you still cover up my mistakes? I'm sorry this stupid tha? I'm so sorry." Byan leaned his body on his chair. He continued to imagine the face of agatha who kept silencing him.

In the cafe across from the office, juna and I sat face to face waiting for the arrival of Mr. Arman. Yes, Mr. Arman, who said he would treat us both to lunch. Only the busy voices of waiters serving other visitors are heard here. Me and Juna didn't say a word.


Seen steadfast body arman sir approached us, mr. arman threw a silly smile on his face.


"Haiy... Marah, mara. Waiting for a long time, huh..?


"Well, it's compact. The clothes are the same color!" Mr. Arman looked at me and juna alternately.


I really didn't realize, the navy shirt I was wearing today was the same color as the shirt that juna was wearing. But I don't mind it. It's just a coincidence.


Me and Juna just responded to Mr. Arman with a small smile. Mr. Arman immediately sat down and called waiters there to order food.


A few minutes later, the food came...


"Mara, you don't want to go to college?" Ask Mr. arman to surprise me.


"No sir." Answer's short.


"Well, why?" Ask again. I just shook my head and didn't want to respond.


"Our office each year has its own budget to finance its employees who want to go to college, and I recommend you to go. It's a shame if you don't take this opportunity. You're young, and this opportunity is no lady du kali." Mr. Arman stopped eating and looked at me.


"Lumayan, free college." Connect juna.


"But I don't want to go to college.." My answer.


"Mara, this is a good opportunity. You can work, while you are in college. You get a salary while in college for free." Obviously mr. arman.


"Sorry sir, I don't want to."


"Mara, look at this juna seniormu. He's already s3, and now he's going up the ranks of course! You also want to go up the post, right? Your salary will go up!" Timpal mr. arman.


"I'm sorry? Department hike?" Juna was stunned to hear Mr. arman's sentence.


"Yes, starting Monday you no longer work with romance and also the purchase team. You'll be the assistant boss of the cyan!"


"Whataaa???? Assistant sir? mr byan's assistant? how could that be, sir? why me?" Juna was surprised and asked.


"Yes.. Because you're the only one I trust." Answer mr. arman.


"But sir? I'm comfortable with my current job.!" Juna answered reasoned.


"It shouldn't be that human being is constantly in the comfort zone of the juna! You have to move on, find a new atmosphere and a new experience." Arman looked at Juna seriously. Iuu only listened to their conversation by enjoying my lunch, why not just me who became the assistant byan? Then I'll stay close to him? What kind of thought is this, what an evil thought I murmured in my heart..


"Mara, for my offer earlier you think carefully first. Talk to your parents. Tell me this week." Mr. arman is pointing at me.


"Okay sir, I'll think about it."


"Juna, from Monday on you will be an assistant to Mr. Byan. And from today you have to do your job handover to Mara. Let nothing be forgotten." Paka arman leads to juna.


"Good sir. Thank you for trusting me." Answer juna.


"Next month you two are going to get a raise, don't forget my deal..." Mr. Arman looked at me and also juna alternated with his typical silly smile.


"Thank you sir!" My answer and juna kompak.


"Ciee... The answer is compact, it seems that later you will miss each other!" Mr. Arman seemed to be teasing me and juna.


"No way!" My answer and juna are the same.


"Hahhaaaahahaa" Laughter sir arman heard so crisp!!


I don't know why today me and Juna so compact answer mr. arman. It's just a coincidence, and I'm actually very grateful that juna is no longer my senior. At least I am free from his commands that make me work hard. His indifference and coldness from Monday will no longer bother me.


Alhamdullah.....
