He'S Not You
Chapter 9

" I can stay here tonight." Abbas said, finish bathing and change clothes. After a few hours helped Lintang tidy up the home items he bought.

" Yes, just stay here instead of going back to your mother's house." Answer Latitude.

Is there nothing wrong with her sister staying at her rented house? He also felt sorry to see Abbas who must be tired of helping himself all day. It is impossible to also throw him out, or tell him to return to the mother's house which is a good distance away.

Abbas smiled, it is better to stay at the house of his brother than he had to return to his mother's house or continue his journey to the outside of the city with a very tired state. He certainly can't.

" Let's eat, I've ordered food through the online motorcycle." Put two rice packs on a plate and sit on the guest sofa with Abbas.

Understandably, there is no dining table in the living room. There is a bar in front of the kitchen. So why did he buy the dining table?

What'd you try for? Only he himself will be contracted. there is no need for a lot of goods because it is not possible forever Lintang will contract in this house.

Can I move to an apartment? Lt could.. If he could have more money.

Tonight Lintang has friends at home, but doesn't know if tomorrow. Surely it will be deserted. and alone again in this contract.

Is not living latitude from before itself?

Get used to it and don't complain.

" My car I live here huh mbak?" Abbas.

" Why?"

" Make it if you want to go to work."

" You?"

" There's still an office car, I can pick up the office driver." Answer Abbas.

Yes, indeed Abbas's workplace has an employee shuttle driver. And Abbas once rode in a canteen before he bought his own private car and could go anywhere without having to wait for a motorcycle taxi.

" No need, you just take it. I'd rather go anywhere with a motor." subtly push Latitude." My workplace is also close to here." Imbabya, and feed food into the mouth.

" Have you bought a motor?" Ask Abbas.

" Not yet.. Tomorrow I'm looking for a bike dealership, looking to see who knows who fits." The word latitude." You have brought your car, if it is not brought I return it to the mother's house." Threat Latitude.

Be sure if Lintang rejects it. And can not be forced, because the latitude most do not like to be forced. The furniture he bought for the household alone had made Lintang grumble and upset. But because of the insistence and also in the name of the mother brought in finally latitude accept although forced.

Finished eating and writing personal data to be brought to his workplace tomorrow, now Lintang and Abbas enter their respective rooms. Resting the body to get back fit and start its activities.

" Be careful on the road, when you get to me." Lintang said, delivering Abbas to the front of the house. Early in the morning Abbas will return to the city where he works.

" Hm.. Yes, mbak." Answer Abbas. " Frequently visit Mother Mbak, pity Mother herself at home. Ali's been getting busy with college." Imbuhnya, remind Lintang to often visit the mother.

" May hug." Pinta Abbas's. Always so, asking permission to hug at Lintang.

Lintang nodded with a smile, giving his sister permission to hug him. Hugs as a brother who loves his sister.

" I'm gonna miss you." Speak abbas in the arms of Lintang.

" If you miss going home, don't chase the target! Mother always complained so to me." Sindir Lintang, made the abbot cluck and smiled hearing it.

Yes, the mother always complained about Abbas at Lintang when told to go home is always difficult because chasing targets that never end.

And when the Mother was sulking, already angry, in the end Abbas went home and obeyed the Mother's request.

Actually Mother is proud to have hardworking children. But Mother also feels lonely and longs to be together with her children even if only for a day.

" Yes, I try to go home every month, but I also have to promise to go back to my mother's house." Abbas.

" Hmm, yes." Answer Latitude.

it is always difficult to make promises.

Waving hands when the abbot's car is about to leave the house. Exhaling heavily at the sight of Abbas's car no longer in sight.

The house now has only itself.

Step inside the house. Lintang will be preparing to start a job interview at one of the companies he has applied for. Not wanting to be late, he decided to book an ojek online. Because the morning on weekdays will be a lot of riders who pass by do not want to be late to work.

Wearing black pants in a white shirt and fantovel shoes and hair over the shoulders let it slide without any pinches.

No need to wait long, the object in the latitude message has come. This morning Latitude eager to start a new sheet again in its original place, without any more to the two parents. Even so, there are still stepmothers and two sisters who love him as a family.

Twenty minutes to the towering office building where Lintang applied for a job there. There were a few employees in the office. Lintang gave money to ojek and did not forget to say thank you before entering to start the interview.

What a heart is pounding, of course not. Latitude is used to this, and no need to worry if you will get some questions before receiving it or not.

No matter not accepted work, Lintang can find another job. Maybe not his luck. But who would have thought, Lintang just accepted in the company he applied for this without in the difficult.

Maybe they know the quality, education and experience of Lintang working abroad to be accepted so easily.

After the interview test was over, Lintang chose to go home to prepare for the morning where he had started working at the company.

But before he came home, he remembered the halfway house. He misses the kids.

How are they doing?

It has been nine years not met.how the halfway house, how are ferdy and tina. Are they growing up? Are there new kids there?

Staring at the watch on the wrist, it still showed the number eleven. Lintang forgot his intention to go to the motorbike dealer, he ordered an online ojok to go to the halfway house. His longing for the halfway house he could not bear anymore, the children who always made him calm in a time when he felt chaotic, he said, or rather he will remember the pleasure back with the man who is still stored in his heart.
