20 Years Adrift

20 Years Adrift
Chapters 106. Conscious


Affan picked up the phone from Bimo.


"Hallo, assalamu'alaikum, Bim," replied Affan who was still on his way home.


"Wa'alaikum hail, Boss. I'm sorry I wanted to say something that might make you angry." Bimo spoke in a clear tone.


Affan's forehead is wrinkled. Bimo doesn't usually say that. He was very curious about what could make him angry.


"meaning?" Affan did not want to be curious for too long.


Bimo then told about his conversation with Pak Aan and Laura. He says honestly about the cause of Affan's temper that suddenly went off the show. After knowing the reason, Mr. Aan felt very sorry and wanted to come to Affan's house to apologize.


For a moment Affan was silent. Actually, he just doesn't like Laura, not Mr. Aan. He did not blame Bimo for telling him this matter. If Laura really wanted to apologize sincerely then it was better.


Affan tells Bimo not to feel guilty. He didn't mind Mr. Aan knowing about this matter. It didn't matter if Pak Aan and Laura came to his house as long as both of them were completely sincere to apologize.


Bimo's phone call is over. The car he was driving had entered the housing complex he was staying in. Affan is getting ready to get down.


A car came in and parked in his yard when his car arrived. Affan seems to be familiar with this car. Sure enough, the car was a car owned by Mr. Aan who is usually used for meetings.


"Assalamu'alaikum, Mr. Affan," said Mr. Aan who had first got out of his car.


"Wa'alaikum salam. Let's go in, please" Affan said as he watched Laura standing behind his father.


In his hand was a fruit basket. Maybe as their souvenirs for Affan and his family. Laura's bowed face did not dare to look at Affan.


"Thank you, sir." Mr. Aan also went to follow Affan who walked ahead of him.


They sit in the living room. Aira who heard Affan's return went straight ahead. He looked a little surprised when he saw Laura coming with a man.


Seeing Aira standing glued, Affan called her and asked her to sit next to him.


For a moment the atmosphere in the room became silent. Laura's face looked tense as she faced Aira. It was hard for him to apologize and be kind to people he disliked.


"Sir Affan, Mrs Affan. We came this time to celebrate and want to apologize. This is a little gift from us, please accept." Mr. Aan pushed the fruit basket that Laura had brought before Affan.


"Thank you, sir. There should be no need to bother. Regarding apologies, I'm less than understanding." Affan did not immediately respond to her before Laura spoke to herself.


It appears that Mr. Aan nudged Laura's arm to immediately talk to Aira and Affan to apologize.


"Aira, forgive me for being so disrespectful to you" Laura said stammeringly.


His face still lowered not daring to look at Aira. If he had to be honest, he had not been sincere about apologizing either.


"I've forgotten it. No need to talk about it anymore. I hope you don't do it to others." Aira spoke softly.


Mr. Aan looked at Aira in astonishment. His shady face implies peace. It is fitting that Affan married her despite her young age, it turns out that besides being beautiful she is also good, he thought.


"Listen to that, Laura. Never insult and demean people because it is not good. Every human being has his own life. You were born rich and had no shortage since childhood but you were also a poor man. Treasure is only left if at any time taken then it could be us who will be below." Mr. Aan confirmed Aira's remarks.


Laura nodded. Her tears are pouring. This time he was completely conscious. His father was already starting to look old and he was the only family he had now.


If something happens to her then do not know Laura's fate in the future.
