The Gem of the Heart of the Former Thug

adel has patience

Since dawn, Adel has been raging. There was no news from Luki, having left since yesterday after night, making him flustered. His memory of the short message the other day made his suspicions even more mountainous. Between jealousy and disgust, Adel had trouble distinguishing.

On the one hand, although his heart still likes to be tempted by the figure of Budi, but he must admit, the seeds of love for Luki have begun to bloom. Although still very small, even to be able to say a seed though, but it can ignite the embers of jealousy in his heart.

But considering the reply of a short message the other day, which said that Luki approached her just to get something, her disgust instantly erupted.

The desire to prove it is growing. He wanted to put an end to this big question mark. The question mark that kept him from sleeping all night.

She tried again and again to contact her husband, but did not get any answers. Even when she called her in-laws, she only got an answer that her husband was still in her office from yesterday. And this morning, her mother-in-law was going to the office as well, to see the current condition. Although her mother-in-law promised to force her husband to give it to her, Adel still felt dissatisfied.

Things felt wrong for him this morning. Even the employees of the wood workshop, who arrived early had been exposed to the spray. To be broken by his mother. He called his sister and asked her to go home. This surprised his mother. Because Adel ruled his brother quite hard and did not want to know the difficulties of his brother.

“Adel wants to go to Solo, bu” said Adel, after calling Madina.

“Loh. Didn't you just say Susan wanted Luki to contact you, Del?” ask mom Lusi.

“Adel can't believe, ma'am. Adel wants to see for himself” replied Adel.

“Nduk. Ilangin used to be your excessive jealousy! You'll get married without going out first. There's still a lot you don't understand about each other. Don't suspect so!”

“How did Adel not suspect, ma'am? From the moment Adel was sick, he left for a rather strange reason. Buy gasoline to the city. But not papa. Adel can still accept that. Maybe he needs me some time. But which husband does not go home, does not know his wife? Can't call you, Mom? Have you ever been that?”

“Yes. Mom knows. That's what I mean. It could be Luki's habit. He used to be the boss's son, used to rule, used to obey, swagging until now. When he had a problem, which he thought it also happened because of his decision, he did not want to be disturbed at all until the matter was resolved. Could have previously been diomelin, never bermaki-maki with his papa because of a problem. That's why he's traumatized. Can he feel if the incoming phone just want to harm him?”

“Not making sense so much” Adel comments short.

He then went inside the house. He went straight up to his room. He packed some clothes and gear for a trip to solo. And without wasting any more time, he immediately went down with the car keys in his hands.

“Nduk. You really want to go?” exclamation bu Lusi.

“Iya, mom. Mumpung still morn” replied Adel.

“Mother call Tati first. Let you have his friend”

“Nevent gone, ma'am. It's Adel's problem. Adel does not want to interfere with anyone” reject Adel.

“Lagian just to solo, mom. Deket” Adel.

“But you're fucked again, nduk. Get you, “

“Aaah. Eventually, mom. Assalamu’alaikum” cut Adel while salim.

“Wa’alaikum salam” reply bu Lusi lirih.

He could not resist the departure of his eldest daughter. He could only follow the passing of Adel with his gaze.

At the hospital, Madina looked confused. Not going home, but coming home with whom? I left early with Erika. Aldo has also left.

“Why are you, Din?”

A voice surprised him. But his eyes sparkled with pleasure. He felt that there was someone he could ask for help.

“Mbak Hanin? Not to the gallery?” ask Madina.

“It's going there. But I want to give you breakfast first. Iu”'s

“Oh” comments Madin short.

“Why? I think you're confused again?”

Hanin's loud voice inevitably made Ratih's mother curious. He's out of the nursery.

“What's up, Din?” ask Ratih ma'am.

“Oh, “ he was surprised to hear the voice of Ratih bu.

“Eee. Anu, bu” Madina stuttered, afraid to reveal her point.

“Why? I told Madin to come home?” ask Mrs Ratih kalem.

“Eemmm, i i, yes, bu” Madin replied still stuttering.

“Oh. Yes, papa. Why is it so tense?” comments from Ratih.

“Oh, yes. No one wants it, huh?” continued Mrs Ratih.

“Oh. There's ojol, bu” Madina said.

“Anterin yes, Nin?” pinta ma'am Ratih to Hanin.

“Oh, yes. Fine, bu” replied Hanin steady.

“But, bu?” sahut Madina is doubtful.

“Why? Anyone want Madin to talk to mom?” ask Mrs Ratih kalem.

“What daughter, ma'am? No papa, Madin's staying?”

“Yes no papa, Din. Your mother was more important to get ahead of you. If you need help, you can call Hanin” replied Ratih.

“Good, mom. Thank you” said Madina relieved.

“Madin said goodbye Princess first yes, bu?” continued Madina.

“Oh, yes. please!” answer to Ratih.

“Bu. Want nyampein take care of my mother” said Hanin, as Madina passed into the ward.

“Ya Alloh, thank you. Why bother everything, Nin?” exclaiming bu Ratih while accepting the mantang given by Hanin.

“Eem. Just the food we have, bu” replied Hanin.

“Maybe it will not be enough to repay the kindness of bu Ratih sama mas Budi to us. Kindly welcome yes, ma'am!” continued Hanin.

“Iya. Ja. I accept, huh? Thank you mom for your mom, yeah! May you always be healthy, and smoothly always” replied Mrs Ratih, accepting the gift.

Although confused, who will eat it later. People are already at breakfast.

Haninpun smiled happily. There was a freshness in his face. He is remembered for the events in polsek, a long time ago.

“Udah, mbak” replied Madin briefly.

“Kalo so, I nganterin Madin first huh, ma'am? All the way to galeri” Hanin pamphit salim.

“Iya. Please yes, Nin!” sahut ma'am Ratih.

“Good, bu”

“Be careful on the road!” message Mrs Ratih, as Madina salim.

“Assalamu’alaikum”

“Wa’alaikum salam”

From the morning, Budi and Erika were preoccupied with their respective activities. Erika must join Paul to continue the management of medical mask production permit.

So long-winded bureaucracy, making management is not easy. Making Erika dizzy, as if she had a factory. Not to mention that during the day he was also burned jealous, seeing Budi invited to lunch by a mask supplier who today came back. There is Farah and Riki.

Around eleven in the afternoon, Adel had reached the factory belonging to the Luki family. What he was aiming for this time was a plastic bottle manufacturing plant. One of the companies that Susan acquired after her husband's death. And become one of three companies with three different fields of work.

Since he had never been to this factory before, and Luki had also not introduced herself to all the employees here, it was only natural that the factory's security did not recognize him. Unlike the furniture factory relics of Mr. Imam. Luki had introduced her to all the employees there. So all the employees there, respect him.

But Adel instead felt fit into this situation. So he could hear the honesty of the employees here, if absolutely no one recognized him.

“Good day, mbak” greet Adel at the reception of that factory.

“Siang mom. Can we help you?” say the receptionist.

“Pak Luki Pratamanya what is in place, mbak?” ask Adel.

“Mother from where, sorry?”

“My colleague Mr. Luki. Yesterday had a call, and I said, want to stop by if you can. Not specific, the clock. So you could say not this official agreement, sih” replied Adel.

“Oh, so. Sorry, mommy's late. Mr. Lukinya has left the office, bu” said the Receptionist, answering Adel's initial questions.

“Oh. Well, dear” Adel comments while smiling, pretending to feel funny.

“Kalo can tell, sir Luki where are you going, mbak? I called, not active. Perhaps I can get closer to his position” asked Adel to pry for information.

“Oh, maybe you haven't landed”

“Oh, on flight? Which office, mbak?”

“Tangerang bu office, jatake”

“Wow. Got an office in tangerang too, Mr Luki?” adel's comments were surprised.

But he tried to cover up his shock as reasonably as possible.

“Iya, mom. Just a week ago acquired”

“Wow. Great, Mr. Luki. Can't be left winking”

“Kalo can tell, with whose mother? Let me convey later to Pak Luki”

“Oh. I'm Fitri”

“What supplier, bu?”

“Mebel, sih” replied Adel. The receptionist was a bit confused.

“Because I couldn't call, I stopped by earlier to Pratama Meubel. But the info, Mr. Luki again in this office. That's why I glided here” Adel explained.

“Oh, yes. Baik” said the receptionist understood.

“Kalo bu Susan, what's it like to do here, mbak? It just so happens that he knows me. Maybe he is not busy” asked Adel. The receptionist smiled.

“It looks like mom is being unlucky, today. Miss Susan also just left the office, ma'am. There was no message to the receptionist. But what I heard from inside, Miss Susan also flew to Tangerang. Looks like there is a problem there” replied the receptionist.

“Wadd. If it's like a ciki berhadih, I dapet ‘try again’ “ comments Adel pretend joking.

“Ha ha ha. yes, bu” replied to the receptionist.

“Ya already then. Maybe I try another time. Thanks yes, mbak”

“Good, mom. Equally”

“Eh. I can know the address of the office in Tangerang, mbak? Incidentally I also help sell my products. Maybe there is a match”

“Oh, yes. Here, bu”

The receptionist gave me a business card. Yes, Luki Pratama's business card. As the president of the company in tangerang.

“I save yes, mbak?”

“Bby. Please, bu”

“Mari, permisi” said to Adel.

“Please!” answer the receptionist.

Adel's mind is getting messed up. She did not think, her husband acquired a company but there was no news.

Yes, although it is not her business, but she felt strange, if as a wife, she did not tell about her own husband's business.

He goes with the emptiness of heart.

In his anxiety, Adel tries to contact Luki again. But the same result he still met. She called Susan the same. He stopped by the side of the road.

*Kalo bu Susan is also into tangerang, meaning that it is really luki mas ngurusin again ngurusin problem. But you can't call at all, anyway? Angry, would I go there? Time yes angry at samper his own wife*?

Adelpun solidified her heart to follow her husband to tangerang. He picked up his phone, then searched for a ticket to the plane.

He was looking for the ticket closest to his flight time. No matter the high price. With a certain step, he pointed his car towards the airport.
