The soul mate YOU sent

Chapter 8 The 2nd Meeting

Three days had passed, after I returned from the beach I stayed at my parents' house. At first I felt scared and nervous that my morning sickness symptoms would make my parents realize that something was wrong with me. But Mas Yayan helped me give an excuse that I was just food poisoning that we bought at the beach. At first they hesitated and asked why I was the only one with stomach pain and nausea, while Mas Yayan was fine. Mas Yayan reasoned that it was because I ate the most than Mas Yayan that made me absorb more poison. We agreed it was not yet time to tell our parents about my pregnancy.

My parents contacted the head nurse of the hospital where I worked to ask for my permission to be extended because I had food poisoning. Hehe.there are fortunately too, I got quite a lot of free time.

But today I plan to start working. I'm gonna go in the morning shift 'cause Dad told me to have dinner at home. There is something important that he wants to tell the whole family. Drrtt..drrtt.., the phone I put on the nightstand vibrated. Soon I reach for the phone, hoping for word from Mas Damar. All this time I've been in contact with all the members of Mas Damar's family. But there is still no news about the whereabouts of Mas Damar.

When I unlocked the phone screen, it turned out to be a message from Lani who asked me how I was and if I was going to work this morning. Immediately I sent a reply if I was ready to get angry, just waiting for Mas Yayan to be ready to take me. After checking once again what was the complete bag of stuff I needed, I immediately went out of the room and headed to the dining table in the living room.

"Kene ndang maem Tan, mawala'e wes enakan?"(here quickly eat Tan, his stomach is good?), father's voice sounded as soon as he realized I entered the room.

"Sampun Luweh enjoy kok yah."(it's more delicious kok yah), I replied while sitting next to mother. I started flipping the dishes and would pick up the rice as my stomach churned again. I paused my intention to take the rice, and replace it with one fuji apple.

"Lho Tan kenek opo kok sido mundut sego?, sek nausea tah?"("(you know Tan why not take rice?, is it still nauseous?), asked ibuk while watching me.

I replied with just a nod because I was busy eating the apples I picked up. It feels better and more comfortable. Because the fresh taste in apples does not trigger nausea in my stomach. I saw her standing up from her seat and going towards the kitchen. He soon returned with a lunch box.

"Yowes didn't bring 'in wae yo, miko lek wes luwe hggal dimaem. Maem apple tok opo yo wareg."(yowes I bring only supplies yes, later if you are hungry immediately at the meal. Just eat apples what you remember)" said ibuk with his hands filling the lunch box with agile.

After finishing two apples and saying goodbye to my father and mother, I left with Mas Yayan before he went to his office. We drove without much chatter. We arrived at the hospital shortly. "Mengko me wangsul ride g**b wae. Telu clock is a pean kerjo clock"(later I go home g**b only. At three o'clock you are still working hours.), I said to Mas Yayan while getting out of the car. "Heemm.ati-ati.", Mas Yayan replied before he ran his car away.

Time passes very quickly. Today there is nothing new. Just routine as usual, accompanied by a pediatrician to control the patients and give drugs according to the hours given by the doctor. Towards the hour of the shift I began to tidy up the nurse's room and changed into a knee-length skirt without arms, collared sanghai front studs with small full blizket from waist down sky blue colored white peony flowers.

"Are you ready to go home Tan?", an unfamiliar melodious voice sounded from the nurse's room door. I turned around to see the

the sound. It is true that the voice belonged to Dr. Diane's. He is one of the few pediatricians who practices here.

"Yes doc, is the doctor here? is not it still five hours later the doctor's schedule began to practice?", I replied as well as asking about his presence here.

"So there was an appointment with a friend in the area, there was still thirty minutes before the appointed time So I all take the goods that I lived here yesterday" replied dr. Diane while walking towards the closet in the back corner of the door.

"Siiip, ati-ati neng dalan."(siiip, be careful on the way), they answered almost simultaneously.

I met Lani in the hallway. Today she's sifting afternoon, so we just met now when she was just about to enter the sift. She hugged me for a while before making small talk. We cannot linger because he has to fill the absences.

After arriving in the lobby I ran a little because the online taxi I ordered was waiting in front of the hospital. Bruck. I hit someone hard enough but the sound didn't come from the fall of my body. I'm pretty sure it'll be a long way off and worried it'll have an impact on my womb. But there was no pain from my body. When I opened my eyes, I realized that there were two big, strong arms holding me one at the waist and one at my back. I looked up to see who I hit and was holding me back from falling. A pair of sharp pitch-black eyes were staring back at me. I felt like I was sucked into his gaze. Until I was finally struck by the deep, masculine voice of the owner of the eye. "Sampeyan isn't po-po, is it?"(you are okay right?), she said with a sweet yet mysterious smile while upholding my body that was still in her arms.

"Ah.iya, no po-po kok.", I replied with a bow of shame, because it was washed away by his gaze. It was then that I realized that the loud bruk sound had come from the fruit parcel that this man had brought. "Oh, I'm sorry I was in such a hurry. Piye iki, the sampeyan parcel broke down. I changed, yes", I said regretfully. Surely this guy wants to visit someone but now the parcels are even damaged because of me. Because there was no response from the man I looked up to see him. It turned out that the person was looking at me with a smile, there was something strange about his gaze. I don't know what, I don't know. But I feel a little disturbed. "Ekhem", I cleared my throat to resuscitate the man from his residence.

"Oh yes.iya, do not po-po do not need to change, next time I ask for a change of rugie."(it's okay not to be replaced, next time I ask for a change of loss.), he said then still smiling.

I cringed by his words. Did he say that?, want to ask for compensation next time?, will he meet again? There was no time for this, there was a taxi waiting for me. "Oh mature suwun if so, and sorry nggeh mas, I'm sorry someone has been waiting for you.", I said then and immediately left before the man could answer. Not to be disrespectful for leaving straight away, but because I felt uncomfortable by the man's gaze.

The plan to go to some places after I went home from work was explained, I just stopped by the bakery subscription to buy my favorite cake. I want to take a break before dinner starts. I've been getting tired lately. Plus my sleep was never good because I always had nightmares about Mas Damar. When I woke up the sky was already dark. The hour hand was already pointing at six and fifteen. I moved from the bed to the bathroom. Shower quickly and get dressed. I chose a little trough skirt under the white-colored furrow, almost similar to the one I was wearing this afternoon. It's just that I added a knit cardigan buttoned in peach color. Feeling ready with a little minimalist makeup, I went out to the kitchen to help mom and mak Asih prepare dinner. Mak Asih is a housekeeper here. But he went home, the morning at six came and eight o'clock at night he came home.House is in the village behind this housing complex.

"Duh wes ayu, weroh wae if arep onok guest."(duh already beautiful, just know if there want a guest.), said mother when I take water to drink.

"I don't think there's a family dinner, I don't understand lek arep ono guests."(i think it's just a family dinner, I don't know if there's a guest.), I said when the water in the glass had been my toilet to drink. "I dandan so arep ngejak Mas Yayan metu dilut to kosan after eating malem. Arep grab zinc tumbas goods online. Soale sent neng kosan."((I dandan because I want to take Mas Yayan out for a while to the boarding place after dinner. Take the things you buy online. You are sent to the boarding address.), connect me then.

Father's voice rang out in the middle room where the dining table was. The voice conversed with more than three people, there was one female voice as well. "Yok Tan, guest wes teapot. Dinner wes arep starts because of dad." (yuk Tan, the guest has come. The dinner was about to start with my father), said his mother and led me to the dining room.

First entering the dining room I saw a lot of people who were already sitting around the table then. I spread my gaze to see who joined at the dining table with us from the one closest to me standing. On the other side of the table, there was a father and Mas Yayan sitting on his left. To the right of the father sat a man of the same age as the father. He still looks handsome at his age which is not small. Wearing a matching white cocoa shirt with patterned black kopyah on his head. Beside him, sat the mothers who wore long large hijabs also white, very beautiful and calm. Really good at sight. But the person sitting next to the woman made me round my eyes. He's the guy I hit in the hospital lobby earlier.

"Hi.", she said with a big smile.

"You?", I was surprised.

We said it simultaneously without purpose.
