UNINTENTIONALLY

Episode 121

RENDY AND HIS QUESTION

"I'm sorry I couldn't keep him from working here. His decision to resign cannot be challenged. I offered him to work at my family's restaurant, but he refused." From his cell phone, Zico said to someone.

Zico told me everything that just happened. Well, from behind that phone, he—Zico told me in detail.

After saying that Dinda will resign to the person on her phone, Zico hangs up the phone call.

He paced out in front of the glass window, just before the phone had moved from his ear. Every now and then he notices his phone screen, probably waiting for a call from someone.

I don't know if my decision was right or wrong to let him resign. I just hope he's okay.

There is nothing better at the moment according to Zico, than to worry about the woman. Really, only this time Zico was faced with a situation like this. Before, Zico's life was safe and serene, and sleep well. Now, the boro-boro is sound, sometimes he forgets everything when his phone rings all the time.

Keeping Dinda like Steve would, is much harder than taking care of homework. What if he's missing? Abducted, or...... Even he disappeared. Really, Zico couldn't monitor him twenty-four full hours.

I hope Steve can come back soon. Then don't bother me like this anymore. I'm tired of keeping other people's soul mates.

****

Rendy had accidentally passed in front of Steve's office building because he was looking for food. Understandably, since last night he became a guard doctor, can be said overtime—k if at the office. So, he's kind of hungry.

Coincidentally passing by, accidentally for him to meet Dinda. To be more precise, she passed the girl, even though she was the only one who saw Dinda. While Dinda looked like a confused person, standing in front of the office.

Because Steve's office and the hospital where he works are close together, it is not wrong that Rendy often goes back and forth on the sidewalk of the man's office—Steve.

Rendy invited Dinda to go to the cafe for a drink, just chatting for a while. Because it addresses the issue of resign, there are many questions that Rendy wants to ask Dinda.

"Ehm, back to our initial conversation. Are you sure you resigned because of your own decision? It has nothing to do with Steve, right?"

Rendy guessed, actually what made Dinda want to stop. His conjecture leads to no news of Steve to date. It could be, like that. After all, the depth of the ocean can be measured, the depth of the heart who knows. Clearly, what was on Dinda's mind as well as her mind, Rendy could not understand it.

The reason for resigning as well, only Dinda knows.

Dinda shook her head, she slightly forced a slight smile. "I didn't quit because of Steve or anything else. But I want to find a new atmosphere."

"Suddenly like this—it feels weird, Dinda!"

Linda knew it was sudden. He's the one who resigned, but why is everyone excited. Dinda did not finish thinking, just resigned, everyone had asked him a lot of questions.

"Well, the point is that I'm going to find a new job in the next few days" he said. "And this has nothing to do with Steve" he added. Dinda doesn't really want to talk about Steve right now. So, his mouth was talking alakadarnya. No details.

"Finding a job today is hard, you know, Dinda. Are you sure you'll get a job soon?"

Rendy said it's true too. There is a company that is willing to accept itself to work. But—

"I'll try Ren. Nothing is impossible if you haven't tried."

"Can I give you some advice?" rendy said somewhat doubtfully.

"What?"

"How about you work at the clinic, with me. That means, in my clinic. Where I work is in need of pharmacists. And, I happen to keep the night in the hospital, so my clinic leaves a lot. I'm short on workers right now" Rendy said. He scrunched his forehead a few times, then normalized again. Rendy hopes that Dinda will accept her offer.

However, just like Zico earlier, this time Rendy had to end up on rejection. "I think you're wrong, Ren" replied Dinda. "You know, if I graduated from S1 accounting. I don't know much about the world of parmacy. Wrong, I will end up being a killer because I do not know to give prescriptions to patients or drug buyers. You know, so the pharmacist must know all kinds of drugs and be able to read the doctor's writing."

"0h yes, yes," sambar Rendy quickly. "I forget that you count money often" he said, occasionally expressing embarrassment.

"Therefore, it would not connect if I graduate accounting, suddenly worked as a pharmacist."

Dinda was one step smarter than him. Rendy almost forgot that Dinda worked in Steve's office as an accounting staff, not a pharmacist. Rendy wanted to chuckle considering her ridiculous offer to Dinda earlier.

"OK, okay. I forgot that. Um...... So, we're switching now to talk" Rendy said.

"Regarding."

"Steve, how's it going?"

"Ehm......" Hearing Rendy's question, Dinda tried to naturalize the situation. He sipped a cup of cold drink, before answering the man's question. "He still has no news" he said.

"Until this moment?" Rendy raised both eyebrows. He thought that a month had passed, the man's time had not told Dinda at all.

Dinda nodded softly, her lips slightly turning a smile. "I've tried to contact him. Still a call at the switch."

"Somehow he was to you" said Rendy. Right, Rendy gets a good chance if she wants to get close to Dinda. But—not Rendy his name if playing dirty like this. He wants to compete healthily, even though Steve is not currently in Indonesia, still, Rendy does not want to heed his intention to cheat.

"I don't know how exactly he was there. Stevie's sister has also been difficult to contact to date. Yeah how else." She said, Dinda shrugged both of her shoulders. "Maybe Steve hasn't recovered yet. I'm sure he'll recover sooner or later."

Rendy gawked, looking out at the cafe, in his hands following the chin of someone with a beard. "It should be, if he has no news for a month, there must be media coverage. Isn't he a twisted businessman, his life is closed."

"He's not that kind of person" said Dinda. "Steve's a guy who doesn't really like his face in the media. It's possible that Steve wouldn't want people to know about his current condition. After all, you also know that the accident that hit him a month ago, only office employees and the closest people only know about this incident. So it's only natural that he hasn't heard until now."

"Right is exactly what you said. Steve was closed about his life." Rendy knows exactly what Steve is like. Although he and Steve are college friends, they are not as close as Steve and Zico.

They are only one campus, but different courses of study. And it just so happened that one hostel back then, getting to know Steve was a coincidence. Because, Steve himself is a student from Indonesia when he studied in Germany. So you could say, they were close just because the students were one zone.

This girl always thinks positively. There are a lot of guys who admire him. Other than she was beautiful, it was never her who did not worry about others. In fact, he was willing to sacrifice himself, so that the people around him could be happy even though he himself was hurt.

Rendy, looking at Dinda's face in silence. His admiration for Dinda makes him sure that Dinda is the right partner for all men.

"Cock daydreaming, Ren," said Dinda. The man's eyes did not stop looking at him.

"Oh, no," answered Rendy. "I just thought of something."

Ah, Rendy's brain really cannot move on. Inwardly, Rendy's little heart asked her to be conscious. Realize that she was rejected by Dinda, so why would she expect more from Dinda.

However, it was not as easy as his heart wanted. Still, seeing Dinda's charm, Rendy can't forget that pretty face. Rendy, really can't forget Dinda's face no matter how hard she tries.

"Oh, Ren, sorry. Looks like I have to go now. I still have a lot of things I want to do. I'm going first, Ren." Dinda took her bag on the table. Sometimes he saw a watch in his hand, the time was midday.

"O—oke Dinda," reply Rendy. "Should I take you home?" go to Dinda.

"Oh, okay Dinda. Be careful on the road huh," Rendy replied as she gave a sweet smile.

From inside the cafe, Rendy really paid attention to the details of Dinda's curves. He thought Steve deserved to like that girl. She was different from the woman Rendy had met before.

If I had met you first. Maybe we are together now. Baby, you met him first. Also with the guy at the mall back then—Johan.

I don't know what your past has been like in recent years. Clearly, seeing you like this, I really admire you in a silent figure.

Paying attention to Dinda continuously, it might not be good for Rendy. He was afraid his blood sugar levels would rise. That girl is so cute and cute. Especially the baby face. Ah, Rendy feels her diabetes is increasing along with not being able to forget Dinda's face in her memory.

However, if Rendy compares, actually Dinda and Steve are suitable. Both have baby faces. But—sayang Rendy also did not want to look ugly in Dinda's eyes. Sometimes, Rendy compared herself to the two people. Really, he also felt not too bad for Dinda, let alone his career is also okay.

Where there is a young and handsome doctor who has a successful career at a young age like me.

Thought Rendy, not a single woman could resist her charisma.

Yet, still. Steve is still the most annoying guy, because it got Dinda's heart first, rather than the fucking Johan.

Oh, that guy was always one level smarter, taller, handsome and charismatic than me.

Suwer, Rendy is desperate to curse Steve at all times.

"But in hindsight, me and Johan...... No. No...... I'm actually better-looking than Johan. The man who snatches the man's lover, there is no good in front of any woman. Oh, really, Johan is the most absurd man of the century." Rendy quietly gawked. This time, Johan also became his benchmark in comparing their good looks.

"Pa, Vanya went to work first huh. If Papa wants to eat or what, Vanya has everything on the table," Vanya said to the father.

Mr. Heri simply nodded as his eyes focused on watching the news on television.

Yes, since their company is also with all the assets taken over by Steve. Mr. Heri's extended family has finally completely collapsed from the list of wealthy businessmen.

Now they live in a small rented house on the outskirts of Jakarta. The luxury they once enjoyed many years ago, now changed into a simplicity.

Just eat, now Vanya has started to like tempe and tofu. He used to hate that food. But from the moment he was determined to change, there was no longer anything he hated. At this moment everything he hated turned into gratitude. All of that is God's gift, where there Vanya will refuse sustenance. Luckily he can still eat, if reflecting from the life of street children, Vanya is still said to have to learn a lot.

Vanya left his narrow house, carrying a bushel filled with food. Oh, yes Vanya plans to go to the detention house first before work.

For a week, three times Vanya swooped down on her mother. Madame Dwi also currently had changed, following in her son's footsteps. Now he wants to receive whatever food Vanya brings. Tempeh and tofu, he ate it. It was much better for the princess to cook, rather than eat from the food of the prison guards. Tastelessly.

When Vanya closed the door of the rented house, in front of the small house also arrived a shiny black car.

Soon, a man came out in neat clothes. While from the side of the car door, also out a woman carrying her child.

Vanya knows that, she is her brother. Heri's eldest son, the man who resigned from the family's list of beneficiaries.

"Sir Arka!!" yelled Vanya from the porch of the house. As if in disbelief, he ran to see his brother, then hugged the man. "Sister. Why has my sister never wanted to visit or find out about Vanya. Is brother trying to forget Vanya?" in the arms of his brother, Vanya sobbing sobbing.

"Vanya. Forgive brother yes," said Arka guilty. Looking at his sister, Arka could feel that his sister had been in trouble lately. "I'm sorry that old brother didn't see you."

Arka's wife, Anita approaches Vanya. He stroked his sister-in-law's hair. "I'm sorry Ma'am and your brother are Vanya. We haven't had time to find you. And coincidentally, today Arka's brother is a bit relaxed, so we decided to leave for Jakarta from Surabaya. Because we're worried about you and Papa."

"Vanya is not angry you are not looking for or asking news of Vanya and Papa. Precisely with the arrival of Mbak Nita and brother Arka here. Vanya was happy," said Vanya girang.

The eyes that had cried, really relieved when he saw his only brother coming all the way from Surabaya to see him. Vanya did not expect that the older brother still remembered him. He wiped away those flowing tears, forgetting his sorrow earlier.

"Nero, this is Aunt Vanya. Try sweet salaman." Anita asked her son, who was carried, to greet Vanya. He gave the son's hand to Vanya, to kiss her.

"Oh, my gosh, my hotshot, Nero. Aunty forgot your face because it has not met for a long time."

Cute boy—Nero wants to kiss Vanya's hand. Vanya also stroked the thin hair of the nephew. Because it had been a long time ago, Vanya took Nero from the arms of her brother-in-law. "Honey Aunt. You are getting heavier," said Vanya.

In his niece's team, the feeling of the need was on the brother in the end forgotten the act of the cute little boy.

"Where is papa? Is he inside?" ask Arka.

"What's Papa's sister doing?" reply Vanya astonishment.

"Just want to meet. Haven't seen Papa in a long time."

"Don't brother," sambar Vanya as Arka wants to get into their small contract.

"Why?" anita Sahut.

"Papa is still angry with brother and sister. Papa will not easily forgive you, let alone let brother and sister meet him. Instead, Papa will be angry when he sees you. So, don't see Papa now, wait for the right time." Vanya explained, especially regarding the controversial marriage of the two, really, the ending of this meeting can be guessed.

"Then, how?" Arka asked for a solution.

"We're going to the detention house. Maybe Mama wants to meet Arka's sister."

"Would you accept Mama's whereabouts" Anita worried. Honestly, Anita had never once dared to look at the face of the in-laws. Moreover, his attitude that does not like him, this makes Anita worried that his presence will be a disaster for Madam Dwi.

"Mbak Nita take it easy. I'll convince Mama to accept Mama."

Anita looked at the face of her husband, Arka. Seen on Anita's face, a somewhat frightened and anxious expression. "You don't have to worry. I'm sure Mama won't be upset about our marriage anymore" Arka told Anita. He hugged his wife, so that she would no longer be too anxious. "I promise, Mama will definitely accept you as her daughter-in-law."

"I'm really scared of Ka?"

"We haven't tried. Do not be afraid of things that are not necessarily really happening" Arka reassured his wife.

"Bak Nita doesn't have to worry. I will be responsible if Mama rejects Ma'am's presence" said Vanya.

Because the sister's brother was adamant, then Anita complied. This time, he hoped. Hopefully, his arrival can be received with a spacious chest by the in-laws.

"Yes already. We're going to the rut now." Without a second thought, Arka carried the two into the car.

Ever since Nero was in his arms, Vanya had not let go of the adorable boy. Even when he wanted to swipe the mother, Vanya still fun playing with Nero.
