"Eating Nna, daydreaming instead?" Nindy came over and sat down in an empty chair near Nania.
"Mh …." The girl woke up from her daydream.
"You sick? Or soy sauce?" ask Nindy.
"Yes, a little tired." Nania scooped up the rice, beef chunks and vegetable capcay she left behind before delivering the same menu to Daryl a few hours ago.
Then he put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly. But why doesn't it feel so good? This food was tasteless and suddenly he had a hard time swallowing it.
He stopped again. And her mind goes back to remembering what happened at Fia's Secret when she saw Daryl and Bella making out.
Why does his heart feel so sick? It's like you're caught cheating on your girlfriend. In reality, there is no relationship between him and the man.Â
"Hhhh …." Nania sighed and exhaled slowly.
Why should I be hurt? Is he not who I am? One side of his heart.
Did he ever express his feelings at that time? The other side of her mind.
He is a man, and men will say anything to get what they want.Â
Don't you? They are heartless. Today kiss you, then another day fondle another woman. What else later? Probably gonna fuck someone who's not among us. Or maybe already. Are they really like that?
"Hhhh …." He breathed again.
"You why the hell? Like the one who broke his heart?" nindy protests that see her co-worker like that.
"Breaked heart?" Nania.
"Eating is not real, a lot of daydreaming, so what else? Lazy work?"
"You ngaco!"
"People seem to be like that?"
Nania chuckles awkwardly.
Broken heart? Could it?
"Conscious Nania, sober up!" Then he patted her on the head a few times.
"Well, now talk to yourself? Is it getting weird?" said Nindy who joined the meal because the situation began to relax in front there.
Nania just smiled.
Who would you dare to have such a big feeling? He is the highest mountain while you are only a pebble among the arid desert. He murmured in his heart, then he forced himself to continue his eating activities even though he was not tasteful.

"Tumben Nduk at this hour is home?" Grandma looked excited at the arrival of her granddaughter in the afternoon.
"Yes, my shift was moved so that she wouldn't be too late. It's also relaxing." Nania placed her sling bag on the old bed of the grandmother.
"Where are people going? Tumben deserted?" Then he asked because he did not see his mother when he entered the house.
"Don't know. From morning your mother hasn't come home." Grandma answered.
"What's that?" Nania stunned.
"Of course."
"Grandma's eating?"
"Already."
"Hm …." Nania rushed to the kitchen to check the food. It turned out that there was only a little rice in a small container and nothing else.
Though her salary of three million Mirna took everything she said to meet her daily needs. But the reality that happened was not in accordance with his words. They still could not enjoy a decent meal especially her and Grandma.
So his decision to ask for his salary on the tfansfer alone was appropriate. So that he can manage finances properly as his father taught.
"Grandma lied to you?" he said as he returned to the room where his grandmother was.
"Good thing was there was food in the store. This is the leftover I cooked for Mr. Daryl nobody eats." He took out the package from his sling bag.
A fistful of rice that was still quite warm, and the same side dish that he had had lunch at the tavern.
"Well, meat?" Grandma with sparkling eyes.
"She's eating?" Nania reminded the woman.
She knew her grandmother was lying because every day was like that. Mirna rarely provides food if she and her husband are not around, whereas there are still grandmothers who have no money and can do nothing but stay home.
"Now Grandma eats. I'm gonna take a shower." Nania thrust the parcel to him, he grabbed a towel and sauntered into the bathroom near the kitchen.
He returned after a while and found the old woman had not touched his food.
"Cong Granny hasn't eaten yet? Cold rush." Nania reacts.
"Grandmother is waiting for you, want to eat together" replied the Grandma.
"I ate before I got home. Now I like it because at home there is rarely food. If there is also a like should not be eaten with the mother, usually make Bang Sandi right?"
Grandma looked at her grandson in silence.
"Eat Nek, let her sleep well and her stomach does not sound constantly" he said who remembers every night she often heard her grandmother's stomach sound even though it was not too loud.
"You ... Patience, huh? Don't be mad at your mother, or at anyone. Even if he does not do you good often. He's in a state of caliphate."
"Mother's fear is too much to ignore Grandma. I'm okay, but Grandma?"
The woman rubbed her head.
"Grandmother can only pray, may you have a better life. Find happiness, and meet the person who loves you without seeing our circumstances like this."
Nania chuckles.
"Eat first Nek" he said, which was then obeyed by the grandmother.

The atmosphere of the quiet house turned bustling when Mirna, Hendrik and Sandi arrived when it was late. Not to mention his brother who rang the motorbike engine loudly until it was heard roaring in front of the house even though their residence was in a fairly dense residential area.
After a while, the neighbors shouted to make him stop.
"Lo's lyrics I got a new bike, basic!" Sounds Sandy replied.
Nania came out of the room to check, and all she found was her mother and husband and her son who had just arrived.
"Have you come home at this hour?" Mirna glanced at the wall clock that showed at 6 p.m.
"Yes." Yeah."
"Tumbens? Not the same way, Om?" Sandi scoffed.
Nania did not answer. He just stared at the things his mother brought home one by one.
"Mom's done shopping?" He dared to ask.
"Yes dong. Occasionally shopping. Pleasing yourself" he said, which when the other day called his son wasteful.
"Buy some food? Or that rice? I saw in the kitchen there was a little rice. There is no smell. Poor Grandma hasn't eaten."
"Bigger you!" Mirna threw a pack in front of her son.
Nania took it and examined it and found a pack of rice paddies with a stale chicken side dish.
"When did you buy it? How come it's gini?"
"It was noon for your father but it wasn't eaten" Mirna replied lightly, and she was busy trying on the jewelry she took out of the bag.
Nania glanced at the man sitting leaning with his legs stretched out on the table.
"It can't be eaten, Mom. Stale."
"Oh, you're spoiled. Potatoes like to eat well at work, then demonize the food you bring."
"It's stale. Do you want to make Grandma sick?"
"Well, you love your grandmother to eat so she's healthy." Mirna raised her voice.
"Yesterday mom took my money she said for home needs. Is there really nothing at home?"
"Hey! You think the money you gave us was enough for our many needs? Think dong! Everything is expensive."
"Well, if everyone works, that's enough. Just taking money from me where can I?" Nania ventured.
"What did you say?"
"The work itself, while the wear banyan. Where's enough?"
"How dare you say that?" Mirna rise.
"Who do you think you are?" He approached his son.
"I am a mother's son! Why did you do that to me? Charge a lot of things for me to fulfill as if I am capable."
"Burdered you? That's your responsibility as a child. You don't know who gave birth to you? Mother did it! So there's something you have to do to pay for it all."
"Keep what did Bang Sandi do? He was relaxed, even often asked for money with Nia. Where is his responsibility as a boy that the mother gave birth to and …."
THE PLAAAKK!Â
The hard slap back Nania received, this time from the sister.
"How dare you say that? Who is teaching?"
Nania froze in place.
"Your obligation is to say a lot of the same things mom. Because you're more capable. You work, while I?"
"Should ... Brother also work." Nania really gathered her courage. Although she was about to cry and she held onto her sore and hot cheeks.
"And I'm dancing, but I haven't. You don't understand."
"What work? There is a lot you can do to make money. Not just running around!"
"Lu said wander?" Sandi pushed Nania's shoulder until the girl staggered back.
"Lu don't know what I'm doing, so don't say anything!"
"But all this time …."
"Lu don't know!" He pushed her back, this time so hard that Nania fell to the floor.
And the man almost stepped on Nania's foot when their grandmother appeared to get in the way.
"Enough Password!"
"Grandmother don't interfere. Want to get my kick?"
The old woman then pulled Nania and brought her into the room.
"Next time don't deal with Sandi. Can get battered you he hit." They sit on the edge of the bed.
"Grandma see right? They always were? You even let Bang Sandi do the same to me?" Nania sniffles.
"Makanya Grandma said, you don't have to deal with them. Just let it be, what matters is that you're safe."
"I'm more convinced that we should just leave this house. Grandma want to go with me? We live at dad's. We must be fine."
"Yes, Grandma will come with you."
"really right? I'd like to ask for a home letter with mom." Nania got up and almost came out of the room.
"Non't now!" Grandma held him back.
"Why?"
"Your mother is angry and Sandi is also her husband there. You're going to confront them, and it's dangerous. So just wait for tomorrow or if they don't exist."
"But …."
"Tomorrow, Son. Grandma was worried that Sandi would act harder on you."
Nania speechless.
"Secording to Grandma huh? Not now" said the old woman who pulled her grandson back.
