ATIQA
Chapter 17: Ardi vs Sigit Danurdara


"Papa.." said Ardi lirih. Surprised to see his Papa's eyes hinting at something. His father disliked seeing Ardi close to Atiqah, the son of his own employees. His level was not comparable to him, Sigit Danurdara.


Sigit tightened his jaw, watching his son come with the son of his factory employee. Ardi has dropped his pride.


"Mba, this is the owner of the factory where the father works. His name is Mr Sigit Danurdara" said Mr Bondan when Atiqah walked in. Ardi was unmoved, not shifting a bit from the lips of the door.


Atiqah's mind floated for a moment, hearing the factory owner's last name. The name he had heard. Danurdara??.


Sigit and his assistant ignore Ardi, pretending not to know him. His self-esteem should not fall openly in front of his employees. Very embarrassing, inner Sigit.


"Good afternoon sir. Thank you for visiting my father. I Atiqah, the daughter of Mr Bondan" reached out to shake hands but Sigit remained silent, not responding to the handshake call that Atiqah gave. Ardi clenched his left hand. Her father was too outrageous. Proud and arrogant.


"Sore.." answered Sigit's assistant. He returned the handshake of Atiqah. Bondan and Asri looked at each other for a while, then returned to the direction of Atiqah and Sigit.


"Lho nak Ardi is silent. Here son, sit here" exclaimed Asri. Swinging his hand, Ardi approached and sat down on a chair by the bed.


"Huh?? ah..iya ma'am" Ardi flinched. His eyes glimpsed at Sigit and then turned to Bu Asri. Ardi nodded, walked over and sat down. Sigit and his Assistant remained standing, they were reluctant to sit for long. Not wanting to be stale.


"My time is up. I just want to give.." glanced at Bowo, his assistant. Bowo understood then issued a check of 20 million to compensate for the accident experienced by Mr. Bondan. Indeed the accident was not his fault but as the owner of the company, Sigit provided assistance. All because of Ardi's insistence.


"Papa as a factory owner, a good and responsible company owner. Papa should pay attention to papa's employees. My own brother said. We should appreciate the hard work of our employees. Those who help the factory keep running. Open your heart and mind!" words that came out of Ardi's mouth while talking to his father after returning from Bangkok, Thailand. Slap hard directly. Unwilling to be considered his son as a negligent boss, Sigit is forced to come to the hospital. Like at the moment.


Mr. Bondan and Ms. Asri looked at each other. Atiqah also looked at her parents. Then nodded his sign so that his parents received the help.


"Thank you very much for your help sir. I was very helped" said Bondan Lirih. He was truly grateful to Sigit. Deeply moved by the attention given by the factory owner. Just this time, Bondan came face to face with Sigit. When else could he meet the big boss. A respected and feared boss.


Sigit did not answer Bondan's thanks. He immediately left the not-so-extensive room. Ardi squinted his eyes, annoyed by his Papa's haughty demeanor. Honestly Ardi was ashamed of Mr. Bondan and Ms. Asri, as well as Atiqah. If only they knew who the man who had just gone off breezed without saying goodbye.


"Son Ardi doesn't have to bother bringing all kinds of food. No need to hesitate like that" the voice of Mr. Bondan disperse Ardi's daydream. Ardi was still thinking about his father's attitude.


"No bother sir" Ardi smiled at Mr. Bondan and Ms. Asri.


"Tomorrow you can go home. Nak Ardi doesn't need anther Atiqah here anymore. Kasian nak Ardi went back and forth atiqah anterin" said Ms. Asri, patting the back of her daughter's hand that was embracing her. Her heart was happy, her husband was better.


*****


Sigit Danurdara was already sitting in his study holding back the vexation in his heart. Waiting for his son to come home. The order from him on the house security guard if Ardi had gone home, immediately facing his room.


"Pa, what's wrong? how come his face is so tense?" anne asked her wife, rubbing her husband's chest.


"Other father was angry with Ardi. He could have taken the same factory worker's son to the hospital. Fortunately, they did not know that Ardi was Papa's son. Can be ashamed Papa, Ma" Anne straightened her body.


"Papa should make the same calculation Ardi. He had to stay away from the working boy" back to his wife. They sat on the couch in the study, still waiting for Ardi's arrival.


"But Pa.we don't be too hard on Ardi. Papa knows for himself how our child's habits. The more forbidden, the more distant and rebellious he became" Anne knew exactly what the character of her only son was. Unlike his daughter who is currently on vacation on the island of Bali with her daughter-in-law. His daughter is obedient and also smart in association. Similar relationships with their families. Different from Ardi. Ardi is very similar to Eyangnya, has a high social spirit and is friends with anyone. Sigit and Anne did not like it. For him it is futile and self-harming.


"Then? are we just that? I can't Ma. How will someone know. Papa was embarrassed" after that, there was a knock on the door. Ardi is home. "Sit down!" sigit's Word to Ardi. His attitude was relaxed, immediately landed his buttocks sitting on the sofa opposite Papa and Mama.


"If Papa just wanted to talk about it, I'm clear right now" Ardi looked straight at Sigit. The same look, they were like a betel in two. Ardi inherits a face, height and skin color like Sigit. "I'm the same Atiqah dating" Anne straightened her body, feeling unaccepted by her son's confession.


"Arm!!" Anne snaps. Ardi smiled cynically.


"I don't care if Papa is against my relationship with Atiqah. One thing is certain.if Mama and Papa ngelakuin something behind me, I can be reckless pregnant Atiqah!" like lightning in broad daylight, Anne suddenly had a heavy head. Dens. Sigit took his wife. Sigit stared fiercely at his son, shaking his head many times while passing through Ardi. He took his wife into the room to rest.


What his wife said was very true. It's free to ban Ardi. His son would raise a war flag if his wishes were forbidden or restricted. Sigit doesn't want to be rash. Ardi's son is the only one he has, who will continue the family company.


"Ohhh..." Ardi threw his body on the bed. Precisely guessed, when he arrived at home, his father would definitely discuss the proximity to Atiqah.


His phone vibrated in the pocket of his school pants. Ardi reached into the pockets. Atiqah's name appeared on her flickering phone.


"Hello..iya who, why?" ask Ardi when connected to a video call from Atiqah.


"Well, is she home, right? no papa, I'm afraid you're still out. Mama you will be angry again" asked Atiqah, seeing where Ardi is now.


"Udah.nih in the room" Ardi moved his cell phone camera in the opposite direction so that Atiqah could see his room. "Don't you?" ask Ardi to turn the camera again.


Atiqah nodded while smiling in relief. "Yes, I believe. Pick up again tomorrow?" atiqah asked, putting her body on the bed. Both in the room.


"Yes, I'll pick you up again tomorrow. I also want to kiss you again" his ignorant smile came out.


"Ah don't want to, you like it more than that. Enough yesterday and then. I'm afraid of absurdity" Atiqah did not want to repeat their mistake.


"Don't really want to? on the lips do not want but if I have kissed continue to follow the ease" Ardi back teasing.


"No! really. I don't want any more. Yaudah, I want to do the job first from Ambar's mom. Dah..met night Ardi" Ardi scrunched his forehead. Atiqah really did not want to be kissed again. Tired of disappointment. Thought Ardi, the kiss was a sign of affection.


"Ardi...kok diem? angry?" Ardi remained silent, reluctant to stare at Atiqah. "Ardi please.don't be so angry. I still am and still love you. You can still hug me" Atiqah tried to seduce Ardi.


"But-okay.." replied Ardi floating.


Seriate....
