Abhimanyu got a new job in between his current busyness to check the test scores, his office work, and also preparation for the opening of the cafe in collaboration with Gerald, which is checking his phone every ten minutes.
The message Abhimanyu sent to Infiera still ticked one. In fact, now five hours have passed after the woman's departure to Malang for a charity event to be done in a nursing home.
‘Why is he still active on his phone?’ abhimanyu asked in his heart, he looked even more agitated at that.
“Pak Abi, can you ask for help to be a representative to receive guests?” Bu Rita appeared and said, “It should be Mr. Gani who met with a guest from Malaysia, but it turns out he suddenly told if his family member had an accident.”
Abhimanyu who was sitting in his chair still he, did not respond to the words of his lecturer. He was not even aware of the arrival of Bu Rita.
“Pak Abi!” Bu Rita called again because he did not get the advice of his coworkers.
“Eh? Yes, Ma?”
“Father daydreaming, yes?”
Abhimanyu smiled awkwardly, as he really did not hear what Bu Rita had said before.
Bu Rita sighed softly before returning to say her previous words.
“If about that, he said he would be represented directly by the rector. He has contacted me.”
“So, yes. Mercifully. I'm worried, because I myself do not fluent English.” Miss Rita smiled shyly.
“Not a problem, Bu.”
“Good, then.I'm sorry, Mr.”
After the fellow lecturer came out of the dean's room. Abhimanyu looked back at his cell phone that never got a message from his wife. His phone has since vibrated, signaling a lot of messages coming into his phone, but unfortunately none of those messages came from Infiera, the wife.
“Bi, you want to go check the cafe with me?” ask Gerald who just came in. He walked over to the Abhimanyu table. Si Aris said, he just made a new recipe for the cake. He asked us to try it.”
Abhimanyu who was looking at the screen of his phone immediately raised his face and looked at Gerald. “Ge, the representative who left for Malang has contacted you?” ask Abhimanyu without further ado.
“It was three hours ago that Adi called me. He said, once they arrived, they went straight to the hotel and then gathered with other volunteers.”
Abhimanyu. Then, why didn't Infiera contact him?
“Lo seriously they have arrived?”
“Do I joke about rich? Really no work.”
Abhimanyu did not argue. It's true, there's no point in Gerald lying for that sort of thing. Once again, Abhimanyu shouted, asking himself in his heart, “Then, why did he keep in touch with me? Kan, can send chat, ‘Mas, I've nyampe.’ Or, “Mas, thanks, yes, the transfer.’ Or, he can also say, ‘Mas I miss!’
Abhimanyu started to look a little frustrated staring at his flashing phone screen as messages came in, but only carrier promotions.
“Come, you should go to check out his new recipe. What is suitable for sale in cafe.”
“Ge, lo check by yourself.” Abhimanyu bowed his head on the table, a boy sulking. “Lo just stay thanks report to me.”
Gerald snorted. To be honest, she wanted to tease the man, but her mission had just begun. So, stop to stop.
“Yes already, I go first, yes. Do not miss,” said Gerald while out of his office.
“Dissolve,” sahut Abhimanyu, his facial expression looks irritated.

In the afternoon, Abhimanyu returned to his home. He looks powerless, out of his car. He still did not get a reply to a message from his wife and also, Fiera still turned off her phone.
“Hey, she really outrageously turned off her phone all day,” grumbled Abhimanyu, threw her tote bag over the living room sofa and she dropped her body over the long sofa that was beside her.
Abhimanyu scrolls his phone, and checks the homepage, hoping Infiera has updated his current activities, but the results are nil.
Not to forget, Abhimanyu also checked the social media of the campus where he worked, hoping that there had been an update of activities sent from Malang. However, again the results are nil, the campus last updated about two days ago.
Damnit damnit!
Abhimanyu closed his eyes to contain the resentment in his heart, his wife's number was still not active until this afternoon. Was he on purpose? Then, what's the reason?
Suddenly, an idea flashed through his head. Abhimanyu immediately contacted Gerald to ask him something.
“Halo, Ge,” greet Abhimanyu after his call connected with the person who is across there.
“What's up, Bi?”
“Ge, can I have an Adi number?”
“Make what?”
“Lo can ask me. Forgot that I was also one of the person in charge?”
“Yes, you know, but I just want.. want –“ Abhimanyu look stammered and think of a reasonable reason so that Gerald does not suspect. “Gue wants questions about books my company has sent. Isn't Adi taking care of that?”
“Ah, the... . Yeah, right, he took care of it. Just send the number via chat, yes?”
“Oke.”
Abhimanyu immediately turned off the call. He smiled with satisfaction as he finally managed to contact Infiera, even through his friend.
In Malang, women who have succeeded in making Abhimanyu become like a hot worm look busy with their activities. He has been active since morning with other volunteers. Starting from greeting the elderly and also providing them with entertainment.
In addition, Fiera also joined the other women in cooking nutritious meals for the disadvantaged elderly, because they have to stay away from their grandchildren because of the economic factors of their families who feel they can no longer care. In fact, some of them were completely banished by their families and abandoned by the wayside.
Not only is Infiera busy, but also Adi who joined some volunteers who tried to repair buildings that are no longer worth using. Of course, in addition to the volunteers, they also bring in skilled craftsmen in their field.
While resting, Adi's phone rang. He saw an unknown number calling him.
Although a little hesitant, but he still accepted it. “Halo?”
“Halo, Di, this is my Abhimanyu.”
“Eh, Mr. Abi. Yes, sir, can I help you?” Adi was surprised because this was the first time the lecturer who got the predicate killer contacted him.
“Engga, I just want to inquire. How is the activity there. Is everything smooth?” tanya Abhimanyu, looks ordinary in Adi's ear to get the question, when in fact there is a certain purpose.
“Alhamdulillah, everything went smoothly Sir. The volunteers present turned out to be quite a lot. Most of all, we get amazing donors.”
“Thank God then. Then, how about ... Infiera?”
“Ah, she looks happy. He said it was his first time attending an event like this. Now, he is resting with the others.”
“Emm .. can I see the situation there?” abhimanyu asked, his tone slightly decreased, sounding very cautious.
“Good, sir, I will send you some videos then to you after this.”
“Eh, no need. I'll make a video call only.”
Without waiting for an answer from Adi, Abhimanyu instantly turned his call into a video call. The student who was none other than the senior immediately accepted it and directed his camera to the spot where it was being done. “This is what since morning I worked with the others once I got here.”
“Then, what's the activity.”
“In that section, there is also a post that we made to do an elderly check. Luckily, we got medical staff. There is also a tour to each room, for parents who have udzur.”
“There again on break, after providing entertainment to the elderly.”
Adi pointed his cell phone camera at the volunteers sitting on the floor. One of them is Infiera.
The face of Abhimanyu seen on the mobile phone screen instantly changed when he saw his wife. Fiera was laughing along with the others. He smiled happily.
However, Abhimanyu's face immediately turned wry when there was a man sitting next to his wife and handed her something, like food. Both look very familiar.
“Who is it?”
“Ah, which one, Sir?”
“Which wears white shirt and brown pants.”
“Ah, that's Mr. Rendi, one of our donors, sir. He's a coal businessman.”
“Why they look dek—“
Abhimanyu was unable to finish his speech because Adi's phone suddenly died. “Ya, discharged battery.” Adi tried to turn on his phone, but could not turn it on at all.
At his home, Abhimanyu also tried to reconnect, but the results were nil. The number is still not active, making Abhimanyu even more upset.
The frustration did not get there. Abhimanyu was also surprised to see the photos updated by Gerald. some of the activities carried out by two students. Of course, what caught the most attention was how Fiera was so close to a fellow student named Adi. Also with the man he had seen in the video call.
Worse in some videos, Gerald made a caption. “Beautiful student and handsome man.”
In other photos, Gerald is more courageous to make a caption, “Select entrepreneurs or smart students?”
Abhimanyu's face was like a crab coming out of an open. Feeling increasingly upset, Abhimanyu immediately contacted someone. “Can you find me a plane ticket to Malang tonight?” Abhimanyu was speechless to listen to someone talking at the end of his call.
“No. I want it tonight too.... Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever. Anyway tickets to Malang!”
