Heartiness
Chapter 34 #S3

Flashbacks....

GA Wijaya Group's office atmosphere seems busy with their respective jobs. No one can relax - relax in such working hours especially Egga who is still struggling on her laptop and files.

Suddenly there was a ringtone sound that rang from Egga's phone. Soon he grabbed his phone and picked up the call without seeing who was calling himself.

"Yes hello good morning".

" Hello Egga...". From across the place came the voice of a woman so softly greeting Egga.

Sontak made Egga surprised and then saw his cellphone, he saw the name of the caller, Zia. He is his co-worker as well as the son of his Papa friend, he has long liked Egga even from before Egga met with Tari. Now he intensively returned to approach Egga after he knew the status of Egga now, although Egga already knew Zia's feelings to him but Egga only still considered him limited to his co-workers.

"Ehh you Zia. What's the matter this morning - this morning has contacted me? Is there another project for us? He he he".

Zia# "Yes a new project about our relationship".

Sontak makes Egga bitter.

Part# "Fu fu fu... Joking Ga ha ha ha ha. I called you because I wanted to invite you to meet today but I'm here".

Egga# "Have you returned from Singapore?".

Zia# "Yes Ga. But I'm just here because there's important business, so before I go back to Singapore I want us to meet".

Egga# "Oh that's it. Emm... How huh? I'm also very busy at the office".

Part# "Jiaaaah... Ga. Please donk luangin his time for me. When you refused my request, I rarely came back here. Please please please please".

Egga exhaled while glancing at the watch in her hand.

" Yes already. If so we meet him around 1 o'clock how? All lunch".

Part# "Yeay... Thanks Egga".

Egga# "Oh do you want me to pick you up or do we meet you on the spot?".

Part# "Mmm... Let's meet him in person about him I want to stop somewhere else first. I'll send you the address where we met, will I?".

Egga# "Yes".

Zia# "Yes already that's why I closed the phone first. I'll see you at 1. Yea".

Egga# "Yes bye".

The call ended, Egga rubbed his face while looking at his laptop that was still wide open and then he snatched his office phone.

"Hallo, please schedule me this afternoon in the retreat so tomorrow because I have a sudden business. Yeah, hmm". He put the phone back.

Egga suddenly fell out after receiving Zia's invitation. He was so agitated that he finally took the initiative to invite Ghifari. Egga again snatched her phone to contact Eggy but abandoned her intentions for fear of not getting permission from Eggy. Then he called Almira.

"Hallo Assalamualaikum Ra. Ghifari's back from school?".

Almira# "Waalaikumussalam, not yet bang. Why bang?".

Egga# "Gini, brother plans to take Ghifari road - this afternoon, may not Ra?".

Almira# "Way - which way is bang?".

Egga# "Our most walk - the way to the mall or to the rides to play".

Almond# "Hmm... Yes, bang okay, but don't wear bang?".

Egga# "He he he yes no, just calm you, at least in the afternoon we've been back he he he he".

Almira# "Hmm yes already bang. Ra wants to get Ghifari to school and Ra is ready - Ghifari is ready as soon as possible".

Egga# "No need for Ra, just let your brother pick up Ghifari so that you all bring Ghifari directly he he he he".

Almira# "Oh yeah it's bang that way".

And Bla... Blah... Blah.. Blah...

Egga is now in front of the gates of Ghifari school and soon Ghifari is out of school. Egga approached him and surprised him.

" Assalamualaikum is Uwak Uncle's hero".

"Look Uncle...!". His exclaims enthusiastically and instantly grabbed onto Egga's body.

" Uwak Uncle kok tumben here?".

Egga smiled broadly at him.

"Yes, Uwak Uncle was deliberately willing to pick up his champion Uwak Uncle because Uwak Uncle wanted to ngajakin his champion Uwak Uncle road - road".

" Roads - roads? The Uwak Uncle?". Ghifari's eyes sparkled - twinkling at Egga's invitation.

"Hey, baby he he he".

" Yeaaaaaa. But Mommy and Daddy didn't join Uwak Uncle?".

"No dear. Mommy and Daddy you can't follow, so we're the way. We play it all"

"Ashiiiiik, but not exciting as well if Mommy and Daddy do not follow, hmmm".

"To this day we walk - the road without Mommy Daddy first, later when - when we just walk - the same way Mommy and Daddy. Okay?".

Ghifari just nodded his head.

"Yes, let's get in the car. Let's have fun today".

"Oke Uwak Uncle".

They also passed to one of the largest malls in Medan City. Egga's hand could not be separated holding Ghifari's hand as they walked towards one of the caffe in the mall.

" Hey.... Sorry yes I'm late coming he he he he". Egga approached and greeted a beautiful woman, tall, white and had short hair that was dark brown, he was waiting for his arrival, namely Zia.

"Hey... It's nothing - what Ga. I just came along too". The woman greeted him kindly and glanced towards Ghifari who was still dressed in her school clothes.

"This little boy who is Ga...?".

" Oh ho ho ho, this is my niece, I picked her up first and just got here. Darling knew this was his friend Uwak Uncle, his name was aunt Zia". Egga introduced them.

"My name is Ghifari buk". He also folded his hands decent like a Muslim man 🙏.

Zia was astonished to see the child who was still sitting on the bench of kindergarten already understood not to shake hands to people who were not his mahram.

"B... Buk..? Just call aunty don't call Mom he he he".

Ghifari only glanced at him without responding to Zia while Egga chuckled at Zia who did not receive a call from Buk by Ghifari.

"He he he. Yes, let's sit down. Ghifari want to order what to eat and drink?". Egga told Ghifari to sit next to her.

" It's up to Uwak Uncle only, the important thing is not spicy, not too oily and not too sweet. Keep telling me that brother has Ghifari don't use flavoring. Because Daddy says it's not good for health". Ghifari always remembered what Eggy had applied to her.

"Uhukis... Uhuk... Uhuk...". Spontaneous Zia chokes when she hears Ghifari's order.

" Okay ready his champ Uwak Uncle he he he". Egga had a glance at Zia.

"Oh yes Ga, I am so sorry for the passing of your wife. I was really sad to hear the news". Zia begins to appeal to Egga's sympathizers with concern over the passing of Dance.

" Yes, thank you very much Zia". Egga smiled at him.

"I still do not think you will hold the status of a widower with this age". Zia grabbed onto Egga's hand, immediately making Egga surprised and then slowly withdrawing her hand.

" He he he yes. His name is also the will of GOD. Maybe GOD has other plans for me".

"Yes anyway. We never know what God's will is. We can only do it with all our heart and maybe God will match you with a better woman than before".

Egga put on a smile and shifted their conversation.

" Oh yeah, you're here because there's another new project or because there's some other business?".

"Hm.. I'm here because I happen to be having business with my Papa, it's a matter of arranged marriage. They're busy trying to find a mate for me fu fu fu". He said while feeding the fries that he had ordered before him.

" Oh good donk if so, it's a sign of your parents dear and do not want their children to live life bergejomblo continue hi hi hi hi. How old are you, how old do you want to be until when do mengejomblo keep he he he he. How are the people?".

"Excuse me, sir, Buk". Suddenly the servant appeared with their order in the middle of their trial.

" Yes, thank you, my mom". He said as the waiter served some of their orders and left them.

"Well... Ghifari's food is gone. You have to finish the food he he he he". Egga immediately prepared a spoon and fork for Ghifari.

" Good Uwak Uncle". He rushed to devour the food and ignored Zia who saw him as unhappy.

"Sorry yes, so cut off our conversation earlier he he he he. Oh yeah I've all eaten yes about him I've been hungry he he he he". Egga turned back on her while feeding her food into her mouth.

" He he he is nothing. Continue anyway".

"Oh, where was our conversation?". Egga reminded Zia.

" Until you ask how people want to be paired with me". Answer her.

"Ha yes. What about the matchmaking? Match not the same you people who want to be in a match with you?".

" Hm... If asked like that is suitable - it fits, because he is the person including the type of my dream partner. But if my heart's business can't be maxed out".

"Why? In any case, if the affairs of the heart are the last business, the most important thing you try first. As it goes for a long time - a long time will surely arise the problem of the heart he he he".

" Hm... Yes, if it's just easy to talk - easy Ga, but the mengejalanin it will be difficult, what else if there is someone else in this heart". Zia looked at Egga's face while pointing to her heart.

"That's what you said, it's not as easy as tearing paper. But yes if there is someone else in your heart why not that person you ask for a mate?".

" It must be hard Ga".

"What a hard thing it is to say to the person in your heart. Just tell the person about your feelings to him rather than you have to hold him like this, how to know that person is also waiting for a signal from you. If you have already expressed your feelings to that person, at least you already know the best decision for you".

Zia felt excited and excited to express her feelings to Egga after hearing Egga's words that were like giving her a green light, she swallowed her saliva and was ready - ready to talk.

" Uwak Uncle, Ghifari can't eat it, Ghifari is full". Suddenly Ghifari interrupted their conversation and made Zia undo her intention to reveal her heart to Egga.

"Yes, baby, if indeed you are not able to spend it, do not need to force eat it". Egga rubbed Ghifari's head.

" But Mubajir Uwak Uncle if he threw away his food". Ghifari bowed sadly to see her food still plentiful on her plate.

"Yes, later Uwak Uncle only eat, so let's not waste right? he he he".

Ghifari nodded slowly.

" Thank you, Uncle. Promise yes Uwak Uncle will spend all his food?.

"Yes dear, Uwak Uncle promise".

Zia is increasingly disturbed by Ghifari's presence in their midst.

" He's your nephew?".

"Hm? Ja. This is my real sister's son. Funny, is that kid? He he he". He answered with a big smile.

Zia only smiled bitterly and was forced to nod her head and was surprised to learn that this was Eggy's child.

" So he's Eggy's son?".

Egga nodded slowly.

"Yes. You know my sister too?".

" Know no, only I know, he's a celebgram so it's definitely known. Not surprisingly until also the relationship he is the same Karien to have a child this big he he he he". His words while glancing at Ghifari who looks indifferent but his ears listen to their conversation clearly.

"Ehh... Nope. Eggy is not married to Karien but to someone else. If Karien mah has long been to the sea kali ha ha ha". Egga immediately corrected Zia.

" Aren't you? Ha ha ha sorry I don't know, about him I've also not seen his time line in Ig he he he he. So I think he's lasting the same kind of Karien fu fu fu". Zia laughs shyly while covering her mouth 🤭.

"No. The Eggy married the same woman who was much better than Karien even 100% better than Karien he he he".

" Hm... So how is his career now after Eggy married his wife?". Zia was getting curious.

"Where do I know that it's he he he he. Anyway it's all not important, it's the past so it's not important to discuss again he he he he". Egga did not want to tell about Eggy's past with Karien because for her it really does not matter.

" Hmm yeah, too. Yes it is. Oh yeah, what are we doing again? There's no way we're just sitting here for a long time he he he he". He asked while glancing around the cafe which is not so crowded visited by visitors.

"Emmm... Where ya? Ghifari thinks Ghifari's gone where are we going?". Egga asked Ghifari.

" Mm... The Time Zone Uwak Uncle. We are crying - the exclamation there. We're fighting. How's it?".

"Hm... Swing. Who's afraid he he he".

Zia rolled her eyeballs seeing her both enthusiastic to play to a place that was boring for her.

After eating, the three of them walked around the mall and did not miss Ghifari invited Egga to enter the Time Zone to play. Egga and Ghifari enjoyed the game the most except for Zia, who was tired of having to comply with Ghifari's request.

"Egga, we're out of here, I'm tired of it. How about we go shopping and help me buy 'in ole - ole to bring to Singapore". His pinta while holding Egga's hand.

"Mh... Bentar yes, I persuaded Ghifari first yes, about his kayak he was fun again it play his race he he he he he". Egga left Zia and approached Ghifari.

" Yahuuh... It was a real boy. Egga again, why bring it - bring it a boy, I'm so hard to be alone with Egga. I've been waiting a long time like this, uh there's even a huff bully". Dumel looked at both. Fortunately, Ghifari was successfully persuaded and obeyed Egga. The two of them walked closer to Zia.

"yuk". Egga also invites her to get out of the Time Zone and walk to the shopping center of fashion and souvenirs.

Zia enthusiastically chose the best clothes for Egga and made Egga feel uncomfortable.

Not to be outdone, Ghifari also enthusiastically asked Egga to buy her toys. This time Egga was completely whirled by her two, but at least Egga managed to avoid walking alone with Zia.

As the day wore on, Egga immediately asked for permission to go home.

"Emmm.. It was late afternoon for Zia. Like I have to go back to Zia. Because it's not good that I've brought Ghifari from after school and have not come home too until this afternoon, can - can I do not like my brother he he he he he".

" Hm... It's nothing - what Ga. Next time we meet again, right? But just the two of you. He he he".

"In the Shay ALLAH. Oh yeah what'd you ride her home?".

"I was with my friend. Maybe I'll just take a taxi online to go home about her from earlier friend I'm hard to call he he he he". He said while looking at his cellphone and occasionally glanced at Egga. Actually Zia deliberately did not bring her car so that she could be brought home by Egga.

"Ohmmm... I want to send you home, but what? About it this afternoon. I keep sending Ghifari, I have to rush to see my client". Egga is just a pity.

" It's okay - what Ga. I can take a taxi online. No need to take care of you as he he he he". Zia was disappointed.

"I'm sorry because I can't tell you to go home".

" It's okay - what Ga. Just relax he he he".

Want to not want Zia forced to go home with an online taxi and bring a sense of disappointment and regret.

While Egga was relieved that she had managed to avoid Zia.
