Back to Your Heaven
Still waiting for payday

"Here sir, we eat first, Arul just happened to buy fried chicken." Say a child who wants to make his father happy

"What a young date." Ledek the father

"Yes dong sir, you can spoil your tongue." Answer Arul

"Yes Rul, just don't be too often later can not save." Added his father

They seemed to enjoy the afternoon meal.

"Rul, don't you buy white first?" Ask Zikri

"It's like sir, later." Answer

Zikir felt sorry to see his son wearing that shirt to work. Disposable dry washing.

"Later if Mr payjian, I buyin ya Rul."

"No sir, Arul will buy it himself."

After the Maghrib prayer, Arul called his mother.

"Why are you again?"

"Look at Ezra's TV." Answer his mother

"Mom, I'm sorry you haven't been able to send money, because you're late for payday." Zikri

"It's okay, sir, but how come it's late?" Ask his wife

"Mother knows less, too."

"Keep paying the contract, too, sir?" Ask his wife again

"Alhamdulillah already ma'am, use Arul's money first." Answer Zikri

"Alhamdulillah if so, have you eaten yet?"

"Yes Mom, it was before the Maghrib."

"Oh yeah, thank God that's it."

"Let's call her again Mom, just a little bit more is it."

"Yes sir."

"Assynoltom..."

"Getishalight."

Zikri gives her cell phone to Arul.

After that Adzan isya also reverberated. They also took the water.

After the prayer, Zikri and Arul turned on their small television.

They sat in front of the television while relaxing.

While sitting Zikri still continues to think, why the payday can be late. He hopes tomorrow can payday and can replace the money Arul used.

"What are you thinking, how are you?" Ask Arul

"It's okay, Rul, just wondering if you can pay late." The answer is Arul

"Have not thought about it sir, maybe tomorrow Mr payday."

"Aami... Yes, you are sleeping."

"Yes, I'm resting."

Zikri also broke his body.

Before long Zikri's phone rang, there were several WhatsApp messages coming in. All his friends asked about the late payday.

Zikri also took the initiative tomorrow will ask the personnel section.

After all the whatsapp messages he replied, Zikri kept his phone and closed his eyes and slept.

While sleeping, Arul keeps his eyes on his father's face. Look at that very tired face and so much burden of the mind.

"It's healthy, sir." Arul said in his heart

Arul laid down his body next to his father and he fell asleep until morning.

"Kukuruyuk..." The neighbor's chicken sounded

It was 03:00 in the morning.

As usual, Zikri woke up from his sleep. He sat down for a while, then he hurried to cook some rice.

That morning his head was a little twitching. But Zikri paid no heed to the headache.

He massages his head while sitting.

"Mother why do head massages, do you get sick?" Asked Arul who had just woken up from his sleep

"Nothing Rul just a little fret." Answer Zikri

"Have you been drinking water yet?" Ask Arul again

"Not Rul."

Arul wakes up, and brings a glass of warm water to his father.

"This sir, drinking warm water first would be good."

"Yes, thank you, Rul."

Sip for a sip of warm water was drunk by Zikri.

"Alhamdulillah." he said.

"Nothing Rul, I've done good for you also want to pray at dawn."

"Yes, if you feel light."

Zikri and Arul immediately took ablution water, they also performed dawn prayers together.

After the prayer, Zikri and Arul sat first in front of the television while looking at the spiritual flush.

"If you're relaxed like this so lazy to work, sir?" Chirp Arul

"Can't be that Rul, we should be grateful to still have a job, there are still many people out there looking for work still can't." Zikri advised Arul

"Yes, yes sir... Arul took a shower first."

While Arul was bathing, Zikri went to the stall to buy side dishes to eat.

"Sir Zikri tumben, usually the same son Arul!" Say Bu Asih to Zikri

"Yes ma'am happens to be still taking a bath so I'm the only one here."

"Oh that's right, now what would you like to eat, sir?" Ask Bu Asih

"What yes, it looks like vegetable oseng-oseng is delicious ma'am."

"Enak dong Pak, want this vegetable oseng?" Ask Bu Asih again

"Yes Bu oseng vegetables are 5,000 equal to buy the employees deh 5,000." explained Zikri

"Okay ready sir, I wrap it up first."

"Yes, please."

Zikri was waiting for his food to be wrapped.

"This is the food sir." Say Bu Asih while thrusting food plastic

"Oh yes ma'am thank you, this is 10,000 ya money."

"Yes sir, thank you again."

"I'm sorry Ma'am, Assalamualaikum..."

"Goddessalam..." Answer Ma Asih

Zikri returned to the contract with food in his hand.

"Kok Bapak who went to the Bu Asih stall?" Ask Arul who is wearing a uniform

"It's okay Rul once in a while, besides you were taking a bath."

"Yes sir."

"Yes, you want to take a shower first, then we eat."

"Yes sir."

Zikri rushed to take a shower, while Arul sat down while continuing to slide his phone screen.

Before long Zikri was finished bathing and in uniform.

"Let's eat Rul." Take her father

"Come sir, Arul bring the plate first."

As usual, they divided their food in two. And they had breakfast with the potluck.

"Thank God, breakfast is over, it's time for us to work." Said Arul with passion

Dad smiled.

"Let's finish the food first and then we leave." Added Zikri

"Okay, sir."

After finishing their food, they immediately put on their shoes and ready to leave.

After arriving at the gate of Zikri Arul's workplace bidding to continue his journey to his workplace, not forgetting he kissed his father's hand.

"Arul said yes sir, Assalamualaikum.."

"Waalaikumsalam, be careful how it works, son."

"Yes sir."

Arul continued his steps and Zikri headed straight to the guard post.

In the post already there Mr. Ilham and Mr. Setya waiting for Zikri and Pak Budi. Unfortunately, at that time, Mr. Budi had not come.

They immediately negotiate a late salary.

"I also plan if for example today there is no salary slip I want to ask directly to the personnel section." Zikri was clear to his friends

"Yes I agree sir, payday is late." Added Mr. Ilham

So the distance has seen Mr. Budi coming.

"Again what to say?" The question is a bit tart

"We're talking about late pay, sir." Answer Mr. Setya

"Oh, why didn't Mr Commander take the initiative to ask his superiors directly?" Say Mr. Budi again with a sniffle

"That's it, sir, we're negotiating how good it is." Clearly Zikri was a bit upset

"Propay Mr." Said Mr. Ilham to Zikri

"Yes sir, Yes, we have waited until later the break if for example the break time has not been any new slip I ask directly to the personnel section." Zikri was clear to his friends

"Yes, sir, ready!" Answer Mr. Ilham and Mr. Setya
