A Place to Return
Where to Return *16
A handsome man was sitting in his chair. He seemed to be busy reading company documents that had to be checked and must be ready that day. Documents of cooperation documents between Vano-led companies and partner companies.
Dret dret dret, Vano's cell phone vibrates violently on the table. It was the umpteenth call that Vano did not care about at all. Vano still remains with his busyness. For Vano at this time, the document is more important than anything, so he did not update every chat message or call that goes into his phone. Countless number of incoming chats and also the phone that was ignored by Vano.
However, the caller who contacted Vano was not deterred at all even though Vano did not pick up the call, the caller still tried to contact Vano.
"Huft this person really is" said Vano who was upset because the caller did not stop contacting him.
Vano saw a name that he was familiar with.
"Kayla Kayla let alone try. Why did he have to call me all the time" Vano said with annoyance when he found out who had contacted him at the time.
"Let's do it"
Kayla who saw her call remained unappointed by Vano again contacted her lover. But the result remains the same. Vano still didn't pick up the phone call from Kayla.
"What's this?"
"Why didn't Vano pick up the phone from me?"
"I don't feel like I'm doing anything wrong with him?" kayla said when she found her phone call was not picked up by Vano at all.
"Try me again to know which one this time Vano lifted"
Kayla again contacts Vano in hopes that Vano will pick up a phone call from her. It turned out that hope remained, Vano did not pick up a phone call from Kayla at all.
"This is a child really testing my patience. Where else is he"
Kayla is really an emotion made by Vano. Kayla did not expect that Vano could not receive a phone call from her. Whereas all this time Vano has never ignored phone calls from Kayla, even Vano who contacts Kayla more often. Meanwhile, across the street, the person Kayla had contacted many times was doing her job.

"Mama, anggie go first. If Angie's late coming home like last night, Mama ate first yes, don't wait for Anggie" Anggie said as he said goodbye to Mama.
"You're overtime again, son?" mama asked when she heard what Anggie said to her.
"It's not overtime Ma. But Anggie has to finish Anggie's thesis. So, it's likely that Anggie will be late coming home for working on that thesis first" Anggie explained to Mama what's causing her to be late coming home than usual.
"Oh okay. Mama thinks you're late for trying to overtime again, son"
"Absolutely not Mama. Mom just calm down. Anggie's gonna ask Anggie's friend to come home. So, Mama, don't worry about Anggie going home alone"
Anggie always tried to make her mother feel comfortable while she was outside the house. Mama still thinks of Anggie as a child who still needs extra protection from her parents. But, uh, this is done by Mama not because there is no cause Mama is very afraid that the former enemy Papi and could also be a man of the new wife Papi will endanger the life of Anggie out there. An anxiety that Anggie found very unwarranted.

"So, what will be your final assignment in my house?" vian asked as he looked at Anggie who had just sat in his chair.
"OK to sip. Later I will help you complete your final task" said Vian who gives encouragement and will always give help to Anggie his best friend.
"Thank you, you are my best friend."
"I'm the only friend you have now"
"Yes too"
"Haha haha haha" The two companions laughed crazily as they realized what they had said.
Brakes. A strong hand hit the table where Anggie sat. Vian who was staring at Anggie became surprised when he heard the sound of the table being hit very strongly.
"Loe why emotions?" ask Vian to the woman.
"Why do you insinuate me" replied the woman very fiercely.
"Well, who's nyindir elo. I and Anggie don't feel shy elo" continued Vian with his distinctive style when angry.
"What is not. Why did you arrive to talk to Anggie if Anggie's best friend was only one of you"
"I'm the only one left" Vian replied no less fiercely.
While Anggie only became a spectator in the middle of the commotion of the two women. One woman is her best friend, the other is her former best friend.
"And in fact I'm the only friend of Anggie who did not go running when Anggie was hit by a disaster. While elo ms. sweet beautiful and perfect immediately ran away when your best friend was hit by problems" said Vian throwing hot fireballs into the woman's face.
The woman was silent at what Vian had said. He could not at all give any answer to the accusations Vian had given him.
"Really what I said? Loe and that loe fella left Anggie when Anggie needed a best friend. So please don't be a hypocrite" continued Vian increasingly unable to control himself anymore.
Vian is really emotional now. He no longer thought about what words would come out of his own mouth. Vian play hajar only. He did not care whether the woman would get more offended or would get even more angry with him.
"Vian. Let it. I don't care" said Anggie, who did not want this commotion to become more so if not detained by Anggie.
"But" Vian still wanted to continue.
"It is" said Anggie very firmly and did not want to be denied again.
Vian then remained silent.
"Starla please return to your seat. Please start today no more commotion. We're not insinuating anyone. If you feel insinuated, sorry, we didn't mean it" Anggie told his former best friend.
After Anggie said that to Starla, the lecturer entered the classroom. All the students who were still chatting went silent. They no longer continued the conversation. Everyone looked straight ahead. Including Anggie, Vian and Starla.
Anggie did not want their commotion to make himself a failure in the course. This is Anggie's last course. Once this is done, then Anggie can leave the bench of his master's lecture.
