He'S Not You

He'S Not You
chapter 20


Sunday Lintang holiday working. Error, the day all employees are off of course. And the day that the children come to meet him.


Yes, Lintang has promised to go to the halfway house on his holiday. Before leaving for the home, he stopped by the supermarket. Buy snacks and sugary drinks for a child to stop by. Lintang likes to spend time at a halfway house, likes to be with children who he thinks can entertain his sense of solitude.


I don't know, why he prefers a halfway house that he thinks is more peaceful there even though the building is a little changed. Perhaps, half of his past was always beautifully stored in a halfway house. Until no doubt he can laugh freely without compulsion to play with children stop by.


The first house for the latitude shelter.


Arriving at the checkout, so much that he bought that he forgot if he had to order a taxi.


" You shop so much?" The voice from the back, making the latitude turn to find the man in the back queuing with him.


" Sir saddam." Flat Latitude, half-bending knowing who was asking him.


" For Who?" Saddam asked, noticing the latitude trolly so many snacks. And meet again at the same place.


Isn't that just a coincidence? Or indeed fate has been found. Because at work saddam and latitude rarely meet.


" Make my brothers." Answer Latitude.


" Your sisters are many?"


" Yes." Yeah." His answer was a little smile.


Lintang did consider the children stop by as his sister, not as abandoned children and orphans. Because that speech for latitude hurts, even if it's a fact. Yeah, still.. Sick hearing.


" Can I bring it? Up what?" Saddam asked, knowing that the woman in front of him did not have a private vehicle. And always use the services of ojek to go everywhere.


What this guy actually asks is, this is not an office place that can wonder about what he is doing.


It's in a public place and it's not a working day. So does he need to answer? Although there really is no problem either. The man asked nicely.


" Can, Take a taxi sir." Answer Latitude.


Saddam nodded his head, what else to ask. While Lintang jug did not ask him anything.


Does he have to offer a ride to Lintang? But... He already has an appointment and has bought kitchen groceries and snacks so much in trolly.


It is impossible for Saddam to delay, this is always saddam wait on his holiday. And can see the smiles that make Saddam can join in smiling and peaceful in his calm.


" I go first sir? Mari?" Pamit Lintang, finished paying and packing her groceries into a trolly back.


" Yes, be careful." Saddam said, making Lintang again nod with a smile.


Careful.


Just this time, Saddam's lips said 'careful' to a foreign woman other than his own family.


Really, somehow he could be so attentive to the latitude of his subordinates. Saddam was never like this. It is precisely the women who always chase and make it so ilfil.


" The total is two million five hundred and forty packs." Said the cashier, seeing the castamer just silent and smiling to himself.


" Sir! Excuse me!" Reproach the cashier once again, and make Saddam aware.


" ah.. Yes how many." Say Saddam and take a swipe card in his wallet.

" Are there guests?" Repeat Latitude, hearing Ferdi's words.


tell him if there will be a guest donor who once a month comes to visit the children stop by. Donators are always good in the eyes of children and ferdi.


" Yes, we're going to have guests. That guy is so nice." Tina answered enthusiastically


" Yes, have lunch together. The cooking is not a problem, even want to eat with the children mbak." Answer Tina.


" very good?"


" Banget even mbak. It's just as good as the latitude." Praise Tina.


Ferdi nodded, That's right what Tina said. This one donor is very good, and wants to mingle with the children stop by, and put waltu play with them. Just like Lintang, never break the goodness in children stop by.


" How long have you been a donor here?" Tanya Latitude.


" Nearly five years old." Remember Ferdi. " He was never absent every month. Sometimes if there's free time it can be a month twice here." Its effects.


Yes, never vent to absent every month to the halfway house. Sometimes a month can be twice the donor came, either suddenly or contact him first. But clearly, the donor never felt disgusted with the children stop by.


" Oh yeah, here I help cook."


" Uh.. Don't mbak, mbak latitude sat sa-,"


" It's okay, I haven't cooked for you in a long time. You guys don't miss." While starting hands help pick vegetables.


Ferdi and Tina looked at each other. No awkward feeling to hug the arms of Latang.


" I miss the same cooking! Kangen tempeh sambel basil."


" Cck, nothing else?" Decak Latitude, holding a smile.


Tempe sambel basil, where they used to always eat together with side dishes until bored. Because they know who makes a living for them is just latitude. Even so Lintang does not give up on giving good food, yes.. Even if only once a week. But they remain grateful.


" Nothing, only mom can cook that well and I can't." Honest Tina.


" I like it too." Ferdi Sahut.


" Me too!" Boni Exclamation.


" hi's... About the food!" Decak Tina's.


" Feed number one, the other one's later!" With the horse's grin.


" Okay, I made it." Latitude Spirit.


He also misses the old meals he made for the children. It has long been felt not to eat with local foods.


" Aren't Ferdi? Donors are coming!" Saying a child stop by.


" Any one minute." Answer Ferdi. " Let's get to know me." Take it to the latitude.


" For what?"


" Let people know that it's mbak who built this foundation."


Latitude smile. " It doesn't need Ferdi. I don't like being flattered, I'd rather be a regular person without anyone knowing about the good we've ever done." Answer Latitude. " You understand, right?" Its effects.


" Everyone knows and knows the name."


" But not with my face." said Lintang fast.


Yes, no one knows the face of the founder of the Foundation. They only know the name and how the struggle of young people to establish a foundation for abandoned children. Many praised his kindness.


" Here, meet the guest first." Latitude Command. Makes Ferdi smile.


This is what Ferdi likes from the latitude. His sadness and generosity.
