Chapter 43

"Son Arkan for a long time, should I go home first" said Dira.

When he was about to get out of the car someone approached him, he was a security guard who worked in Arkan's office.

"Where are you going, Neng?" ask the middle-aged security guard.

"Go home sir, please later if Arkan's brother comes to say yes, sir," said Dira.

"Okay, Neng. Please do not go, I will be fired," said Satpam.

"Sir? there is no way big brother fired," said Dira.

"So, Mr. Arkan said that if I reach Neng, I will be fired myself" explained Satpam.

"So long ago, Dira wanted to go home," said Dira pursing her lips.

Laura came to the parking lot, she asked the security guard where the taxi was that she had just ordered.

"Sir, has my taxi arrived yet?" laura asked, approaching Dira and the security guard.

"No, mbak. I was asked to take care of this beautiful Neng," replied Satpam.

"This father can work? Why even take care of unimportant people!" snapped Laura.

"That doesn't matter to you, it's not the duty of the security guard" said Dira.

"Bare you the same me!" shouted Laura.

"Who is afraid" said Dira.

Dira and Laura then jambak-jambak an, until the security guard was overwhelmed to divorce them both. It was fortunate that Arkan immediately came and injured them.

"Stop!" shout Arkan. Making Laura turn towards Arkan, while Dira grabbed Laura again.

"It hurts!" shouted Laura.

"Already Neng, stop it," said Satpam.

"You shit? Laura why are you like a child, too" Arkan said.

"He's the one who started first, sir," Laura pointed at Dira.

"Don't believe it, brother. He was not polite with the security guard" said Dira.

"Don't miss you! You boys don't know yourself!" said Laura passed leaving Arkan and Dira.

"This ring is not wrong, sir," said Satpam with fear.

"Continue your work!" tell Arkan.

Arkan then tells Dira to get into his car, he invites Dira to go home.

Dira's hair still looks disheveled, Dira tidied with her hands.

"That's because he likes to fight" said Arkan, glancing at Dira.

Dira just silently did not answer Arkan's words, he knew that he should not fight like that. Laura is not Sisil who always bothers but, Laura if you see Dira like seeing the enemy.

"Why silence?" ask Arkan gently.

"Don't tell Mamah, Brother. Dira knows if it's wrong," said Dira.

"I've told you not to fight, why do you still repeat?" ask Arkan.

Dira recounts the incident, but Arkan does not seem to want to hear Dira's reason. Which Arkan wants Dira to fight no more, even if he's innocent.

"I'm sorry Dira, Brother," said Dira.

"Yes, don't fight anymore" said Arkan, stroking Dira's head.

Not feeling they have reached Dira's house, Arkan entered Dira's house, because he wanted to meet with Mamah Meri.

"Sir, drink first!" said Dira, put the drink he had made on the table.

"Thank you, Dira. Where's Aunt Meri?" ask Arkan.

"It's not possible to go home, brother," replied Dira. Mamah Meri is currently still on her way home from Luna's house.

Because Mamah Meri never came, Arkan finally went home first. He still does a lot of work from the office he takes home.

Arkan did not focus on doing his work, he instead imagined Dira who was fighting with Laura.

"Why do I even imagine Dira," he said, then refocused on his work but still could not.

"Sister!" shouted Eagle.

"What's up, El?" arkan asked, opening the door of his study because he heard the voice of the Eagle.

"Sister, where did you go with Dira?" ask Eagle.

"Buy a book, why?" ask Arkan.

"You're not dating, are you?" The eagle did not answer Arkan's question, but he asked back.

"What do you ask, El? it's out there!" expel Arkan.

"Remember, Brother!" said the Eagle, then left Arkan's study.

The eagle warns Arkan, because he does not want to make a friendship with the Dira family damaged just because of love. Though Mother Sinta is very happy if you have a daughter-in-law like Dira.

Coincidence in want their family can be besan, different from the thought of the Eagle. Even if the Eagle himself who has a relationship with Dira will certainly be sanctioned.

***

On campus this morning Nisa and Luna are already waiting for Dira's arrival, they are the most loyal friends with Dira.

"Sorry, I'm late" said Dira.

"Where have you been, we've been waiting a long time" Nisa said.

"I woke up this morning" said Dira.

"We're in, yuk!" take Luna.

Then the three of them entered the class to attend the first hour course. Dira seems unfocused in the classroom, as Arkan's teaching makes him remember what happened yesterday in Arkan's office.

After Dira finishes chasing Arkan out of his class, Dira tells Arkan that he wants to go to the office and apologizes to Laura.

Arkan forbids Dira from coming, he knows what Laura is like. Suppose there is a woman close to Arkan he will definitely disturb. Laura is indeed very professional in doing the work, that's what makes Arkan keep it.

"But, sir," said Dira, whining to go with Arkan to the office.

"Dira, Laura will keep me busy. And he can be free to play you" Arkan explained.

Arkan then tells Dira to return with his best friend, as he will soon go to the office.

"Dira, you're getting stickier with Pak Arkan" Nisa said.

"It will soon be Eagle's sister, dong," said Luna.

"What are you talking about? I didn't hear" said Dira.

Dira invites his two best friends to sit down and tell him about yesterday's incident in Arkan's office.

"Which name is Laura, pretty isn't she?" ask Nisa.

"Beautiful, like a bule" said Dira.

"Why did you take the security guard?" ask Luna.

"Kasian Luna, if you get fired what about the fate of his family. They need to eat, while the security guard is the backbone of his family" explained Dira.

"Dira, what do you have to do with your sister?" the Eagle asked, curious because he was not satisfied with Arkan's answer.

"Cie, her sister-to-be came," said Nisa, making the Eagle glare at Dira.

"You ask what an eagle is? it is not clear to be a person" said Dira.

"Yes, the Eagle is recriminating" said Luna.

The eagle then went from before the three of them, the Eagle's attitude grew strange to Dira. Eagles used to be very cheerful and always with the three of them, now look away.

Dira was aware of the Eagle's changing attitude, but he did not rebuke at all for fear of offending the Eagle.

Luna and Nisa also started to become aware with the change in the Eagle's attitude at this time.
