Dr. Josh and his sleeping wife
Chapter 1
“Dear passengers, the train has arrived at the last stop, please double check your luggage and heart step out.”
An announcement was echoed inside the train carriage that had just arrived at the station in a large city called Hamsphere. A young boy got off the train, carrying a large backpack on his back. He stepped towards the exit of the station, when it was already outside,
“At last I got here..” He said while looking at the view of the city in front of him.
He took off his backpack and stretched his achy body because he had been sitting in the carriage for too long. After finishing stretching his achy body, he took out a smartphone from his pocket, he read a message from his father once again whose contents, which was,
“So until the city of Hamsphere directly to the house of Mr. Roderick yes, papa relying on you, this is the address...”.
“Duh...I don't know where this address is...papa impromptu anyway, actually I just want to lecture here..” His words in the heart.
He looked to his right and left, and a taxi stopped right in front of him, a passenger got out of the taxi, and before the taxi left, he ran to the taxi. He tapped on the passenger glass in front and the taxi driver opened his window.
“Excuse me sir, know not this address ?” Ask her.
“Oh know deck, just go up, I inter...” Answer the taxi driver.
“Alright sir...I ride yes...”.
The young man immediately boarded a taxi that had just dropped off his passengers, the perfume of the female passenger was still smelled in the taxi. While sitting down, he touched the seat beside him and he found a wallet. He immediately asked the taxi driver to stop while showing his wallet. The taxi driver put up an emergency stop light and he got off in pursuit of the female passenger who got off just now. Since the woman wasn't far away yet, she directly managed to catch up to him,
“Excuse me ma'am, sorry this is his wallet left behind in cab.” Told from behind.
The woman turned her head and turned around, the young man was amazed by her beauty who turned out to be like a model. But she regained consciousness and gave her wallet to the woman, after the woman checked her purse,
“Thank you yes...has returned my wallet intact.” Said the woman while smiling sarcastically at Joshua's appearance.
“Same, all right, I'm sorry, the taxi is waiting..” The young man turned around and ran away.
The young man got back in his cab, the driver ran a taxi and they set off to the address shown by the young man. Along the way, the young man looked out the window, he saw how magnificent the city he had come to, the towering tall buildings with large numbers of concrete forests, the number of cars and motorcycles on the highway, and the number of cars and motorcycles on the road, pedestrians walk on the side of the sidewalk in an orderly manner and a large statue in the middle of the city complete with a circular pool.
“This city is huge yes...” The young man was amazed.
“Oh you just came from out of town huh deck ?” Ask the taxi driver.
“Iya sir is right, I just this time was in this city.” Answer the young man.
“Wah...what do you want to go to the city ? working ? lecture ?” Ask the taxi driver.
“I want to go to college sir, major in medicine..” Answer the young man.
“Great, but still young, do not give up yes.I pray to succeed and succeed.” Reply taxi driver.
“Wah thank you very much sir...” Reply to the young man.
Finally after a long walk, the taxi arrived in the southern part of the city full of elite housing with spacious and large houses like castles. The housing complex is bounded by a security fence, meaning that not just anyone can enter the complex. Taxis that want to enter must be checked at the gate and asked to meet who in the complex, not least the taxi that the young man was riding, when he arrived at the gate,
“Excuse me, what is the need for this complex ?” Ask a guard.
“Oh I'm looking for a house that is located here....belongs to the family of Mr. Roderick...” The young man answered while showing his smartphone.
“Pak Roderick yes, well, you just straight, the third alley on the right turn, then straight, the biggest house is at the very end.” Said guard.
“Good sir, thank you..” Reply to the young man.
The taxi walked into the gate opened by the guard who asked. As per the direction of the guards, the taxi arrived in front of a large white house with two large pillars in front of it, the house was in front of the complex park and had a large courtyard.
“Dek, is this really his home ?” Ask the taxi driver.
“Then according to the address is correct yes sir..” The young man hesitated.
“Wuih..hegat deck, papa mu acquaintance...good his fare so 80.000...”.
“Loh already left, my money lives a sheet of it even though..ya already....” The young man said in his heart.
He looked back at the house in front of him while carrying his backpack, many times he checked his address using the map application on his smartphone and it is not wrong if the house in front of him is his home. Finally he ventured to press the bell that was on the front of the fence of the house.
“Ding dong.” There was a loud bell ringing inside the house, before long a man wearing a security uniform opened the fence, the man came out and met the young man. Before asking, the security looked at the appearance of the young man who was in front of him, he observed the young man from top to bottom and then back up again, although handsome but his appearance is not suitable to be in the complex, then the security asked,
“There can be helped ?” Ask her ketus.
“Sorry sir, is it true here father Roderick's house ? My name is Joshua Verden, I come from the city of Thules Said Joshua.
“True, this is the house of Mr Roderick, what is the need here ?” Ask security is getting worse.
“This sir, I was asked here by my papa...” Said Joshua while showing his papa name on a smartphone.
“Shortly...” Answer security.
Security was immediately entered to close the fence back, heard the sound of footsteps of people running behind the fence. Joshua became a little surprised, because it received a less friendly reception from security. Shortly after, the security reopened the fence, this time he came along with a lady dressed as a waiter out,
“Brother Joshua ?” Ask the woman.
“True ma'am, I'm Joshua.” Answer Joshua.
“Alright, come with me...” Get that woman to a sniff.
The woman regained her arms, security opened the fence wide and let Joshua in with a face that was very unpleasant to see. Joshua entered following the servant-clad woman into the living room. Once inside, when Joshua was about to sit on the couch,
“Hey...don't sit on the sofa, sit on the floor.” Said the woman.
Joshua who did not understand finally obeyed the woman's request even though his heart was a little confused,
“What is this about the procedure for receiving guests in this city ?” He asked in his heart while looking at the sour-faced servant.
Shortly after, a fat and short middle-aged man walked into the living room, wearing a noble-style nightgown that looked luxurious and red.
“Joshua ?” Ask her as soon as she enters the living room.
“True sir, I'm Joshua.” Answer Joshua.
“Hah...why are you sitting below, let's go upstairs....” Said the man as he approached Joshua and told him to sit on top.
“Um...whose father ?” Ask Joshua.
“I'm your papa friend..My name is Calvin Roderick. Come on, who told you to sit down like that..” Calvin looked at the waiter next to Joshua.
“Sorry sir, I think he's a new worker here..” Said the waiter in sharp lyrics by Calvin.
“Please next time ask first, she is my daughter-in-law, do not be impudent...understand.now you are out..” Jerky Calvin.
“Ba..good sir...” The waiter walked back and straight out of the living room.
Then Calvin pushed slowly Joshua's back and asked to sit on the sofa, then he sat down in front of Joshua and looked at Joshua's face.
“Loh why Joshua, how come your face is like that ?” Ask Calvin.
“Anoo...pak, i...so what did you say ? daughter-in-law ?” Joshua asked who from the look on his face was found out that he was confused half dead.
“Loh, Johan didn't say what to you ?” Ask Calvin.
Joshua did not reply, he just shook his head. Calvin immediately lowered his head and massaged his forehead with his hands.
