Benalu In My House
THIRTY-SIX

Tears almost fell from the corner of Mentari's eye, but Mentari immediately wiped it. I look fragile in front of others even though it is Galih.

"You must not despair. Not insecure either. I am sure you will meet someone who truly loves and accepts your flaws. And I am sure you will have a baby born from your own womb. Brother always prays for you," said Galih as he rubbed the top of Mentari's head.

The mentari smiled widely. He was fortunate to meet people who loved him sincerely like Galih and Jeanara.

"Yes, we're going to the cafeteria right now. Riri's stomach has been rumbling, the worms have been demo asking to eat," continued Mentari made Galih chuckle then embrace the shoulders of Mentari out of his room.

"No need to embrace brother. That I was told that brother's affair can be chilled," Mentari's sergeant while lowering Galih's hand from his shoulder made Galih laugh, even Belinda who walked behind him also smelled a smile.

"Ck .. even ngetawain." Mentari Protest.

"Why? Afraid of losing her fans in this office huh!" sedition Goda.

"Huh, what try! Fans from where? Is Riri an artist? "

"Eh, he does not know that he is now an idol of office people, is not Bel? You know that, right?" chirps Galih while looking towards Belinda.

"I heard that, sir," Belinda said diplomatically.

The mentari just chuckles. He only regarded the words of Galih and Belinda as a joke.

Upon the arrival of Mentari, Galih, and Belinda in the office cafeteria, boisterous voices began to be heard. The employees started whispering to see their big boss ordering food in the office cafeteria and eating at one of the tables leisurely. They think that the boss, especially the big boss, would not want to eat in such a place. But apparently, their big boss was different. Even Mentari ate there with his leisure.

Contact it, the office canteen which is usually not so crowded because its employees prefer to eat outside especially around their office many cafes and restaurants, is now actually filled with employees. Even the high staff of the company from the division heads and branch managers choose to eat in the company cafeteria. Of course they do that for a variety of reasons. There are those who want to see their big boss up close, some are because they admire, and some are trying to get close.

"Sst .. look, I think Arga sir is getting more intense deketin Bu boss ya!"

"Yes, this morning just as the new boss ma'am until immediately greeted with him. It can be romantic too, too."

"Shhh .. By the way don't date, know for yourself if he's angry again."

"Well, Mr. Bisma nimbrung also cuy, the duren does not want to lose like that."

"No, look, Mr. Genta, just nongol from the elevator, if he wants to join the roost too huh?"

"Waw, the charm of the boss is very top! All the singles like on a deketin gercep. So curious about the former male boss Mom is really stupid really cool Bu duileh boss."

"Don't divorce them because there are actors! I'm sure, ma'am boss doesn't accept divorce, that's for sure."

"Sama, I thought so too. He must've pulled out the diamonds for the coral shards."

Just contact the entirety of MTR Furniture employees that made all other employees who gossip ria laugh out loud. Only one person is not, that person is none other than Shandi.

Shandi's face looked wry. Even he became unfeeling from eating because it became a bully-an ingredient without realizing his co-workers.

"Thankfully no one knew that I was Mentari's ex-husband. If they knew, I'd be the bully-an unrelenting office person."

Of course, that sentence only dared Shandi say in his heart.

Occasionally Shandi's eyes glanced at the long table where Mentari was. Though in the canteen there are still many other tables, but single men in high positions actually choose to sit at one table with Mentari all. Shandi can not deny, the charm of his ex-wife was indeed extraordinary. But now, all the more extraordinary especially after divorcing him.

A rude snort sounded from Shandi's lips made all the co-workers who were at one table with him turn his head.

"Why loe? No appetite?" chirp one of Shandi's coworkers.

"What the hell is loe?" fierce Shandi turned to look at his co-worker.

"What's? Loe seriously?"

"Sir Shandi, really is that?"

"Huahahhm ... "

"Oh, ouch, pityaaaan! Your jealousy is misplaced, sir!" koor some of Shandi's coworkers.

Shandi's face was red because it became a mockery of his coworkers. Out of annoyance, he stood up. There was a squeaking sound of chair legs clashing with the floor when Shandi stood up making how many pairs of eyes including Mentari turned towards him. With a rumbling feeling, Shandi just passed by even he left his food untouched at all. No one cares so much about Shandi being upset. After the departure of Shandi, they also resumed their activities while occasionally laughing at the stupidity of Shandi who put their heart on their big boss, really unequal thought they. Unbeknownst to them, it adds to Shandi's list of regrets that have been squandered and released Mentari.

Returning to work, Shandi went into the house without caring about the presence of the mother who was watching television. Shandi immediately threw his buttocks on the sofa and closed his eyes to make Rohani whose face was not as bright as usual was turned with a frown.

"What's wrong with you, Shan?"

But Shandi did not budge, ignoring the mother's question.

"Shandi, what's wrong with you? His parents were not answered. You're mute what deaf is!" hardik Rohani was upset to see the sour face of the prince.

"Mama can be quiet? I'm dizzy, ma'am" said Shandi in a raised voice.

"You dare yell at mama?"

"One of my own mama, I told you to be quiet, still. I told you I was dizzy again." Pissed Shandi. He snorted. Hoping at home can be calm, it is increasingly irritated to be.

"That's because you're worried about you, you're angry!" sentak Rohani upset.

"Mama's worried? Since when did you worry about me? Mama never cared about me, my happiness."

"What do you mean? When does mom not care, huh? When?" The rising spiritual voice did not accept the words of his eldest son.

"Mama ask when? Mama's always messing with my house and Dance what's her name? Because mama always cornered Tari, because mama forced me to pray for Tari, because mama forced me to divorce Tari, now my life is chaotic, ma. Happiness gone. I was devastated ma," Shandi jolted with a dead red face making Rohani stunned.

"If you still love him, pursue him again, persuade him to come back with you. Mama sure she would. If necessary, promise her that you will divorce Erna when she gives birth. Mama promised not to nullify you again later," said Rohani lightly. It's like that mentari's feelings aren't important. As if Mentari was dead love with Shandi so that it could easily be achieved again with just words of love.

"But is that possible, ma?"

"Why is it not possible? I'm sure she still loves you."

"But Shandi's rivals this time around are many, ma, and they're way above Shandi. Not only in terms of work, but also face and intelligence. Shandi in the office alone is a joke because he suspects Shandi is in love with his own boss."

"Huh? You serious?"

Shandi nodded weakly.

"Don't despair dong! Effort first. Later after you succeed, fire all those who have made fun of you let them know the taste!" rohani said with laughter as if convinced their plan would work.

Shandi hesitated, but he just nodded. There's no harm in trying, no, he thought.
