IT'S ME YOU HURT
70
Reyna's heart trembled at the twinkle of happiness in Tika's eyes, only getting a job to wash and iron clothes made her happy.
'Alhamdulilah, thank God for the fortune you gave.' Tika thanked the Almighty for the work Reyna gave her. If today Tika can buy rice to eat for almost a month, tomorrow he might be able to buy a good side dish to eat with his mother and son. Very happy he is.
"Thank you so much, I'll take my groceries home first, then come back here." Tika replied with great enthusiasm.
"Yes Tik, same. Ma'am, thank you so much, you've helped me." Reyna smiled warmly.
After Tika went, Ibu Nabila entered the shop.
"Well, why hire someone to help you wash and iron?" It turned out that Nabila's mother heard Reyna's conversation with Tika just now. Mother was astonished by what her son was doing, because Reyna was used to doing all the work herself. Even if there's work in the house that Mom hasn't done, Reyna will do it all without being told.
"If you are busy and need help, let me help you. No need to go out of money to call someone else." Say Mother with her distinctive style of thoughtful yet friendly.
"Mom, I actually just want to help Tika. You didn't see how happy she was when she accepted the job offer I gave her?"
"I was also once in his position, accepting any job as long as it was halal. I understand his condition at this time. Maybe if I just gave him the money, he wouldn't take it. So I gave him the job of washing and ironing. Oh yeah, can you help me? Please take out your father and mother's dirty clothes, and whichever clothes you want to iron. You know, my shirt and Galena's just washed and ironed." Reyna said with a chuckle.
"Huuhh, you are just around, you also wash your clothes every day. Later I see Reva and Gina's clothes, usually they wash clothes two or once a week."
"But I'm proud of you, son, you have a high sense of empathy for people who are in distress. That is how humans should be, when they are in trouble they can be strong and rise. And when it can be better, never forget those difficult times to make it a valuable life lesson, and that way you can feel and help others who are in trouble. Even a little help if given when they really need it, will be a great blessing and they will never forget their whole life!"
"Yes mom, I understand. Thank you mom." Once again Reyna was grateful for God's grace for being born from the womb of a great and wise woman like her mother.
Brrmm, brrrm...
The sound of Mr. Ridwan's motorbike was heard entering the grounds of their home.
"Sorry Reyna, the old father went. He said you wanted a job interview today. Come on, get ready, don't be late." Last night Reyna had told both her parents that today she would apply for a job at once directly in an interview at a company. He asks permission from his parents, because Reyna is very mature and no longer a girl, but Reyna realized this time he was the responsibility of both parents plus now he lives in his parents' house, and there is Galena that he must leave if he goes out to work.
*****
Nine o'clock past fifteen minutes Reyna was already in the company lobby. Reyna was waiting for a direction from a resespectionist woman, then Reyna was directed to the third floor of the HRD (Human Resource Development) or personnel section, to meet with Ms. Seska.
On the third floor, Reyna was waiting for a young staff member from the HRD department.
"Reyna's mother?" Ask the young man politely.
"Yes sir. Here, my application file." Reyna answered politely, then handed over a map containing the application file she had brought to the young man.
The staff then led Reyna into the room in the HRD Division. Thirty minutes Reyna was sitting in the waiting room, then ten o'clock five minutes later, the staff came and told Reyna to go back into a room in the Division to meet with a mother who would interview Reyna.
Just now Reyna was left, suddenly came two women dressed in black white standing in front of the door of the HRD Division, it seems like the two women will also be taking part in an interview to apply for the secretary of the President Director like him, as they hold the map and wear black white clothes like him. The two girls were beautiful women but their appearance was greatly exaggerated by wearing long anti-storm eyelashes with red blushing lipstick. Plus they wear tight shirts and short skirts such as deliberately showing off their white and smooth thighs, making the minds of naughty men who see him traveling everywhere. All the eyes of employees in the HRD Division were staring at them, making them uncomfortable because they were the center of attention.
Fortunately Reyna wore a modest and modest dress with a white shirt top and A knee-length black skirt, making Reyna look slimmer, plus black high heels that Reva lent her. His appearance was simple but interesting. Moreover, the natural makeup of the flawles that Reyna uses makes her look more beautiful and young like an apprentice college boy.
"Please enter Reyna's mother." The staff led Reyna and invited her into a room, but she did not enter with Reyna. Maybe he will take care of the two women who just came.
"Yes, thank you sir."
Thirty minutes into the interview and being in a room, Reyna finally came out and was told to wait for the next interview. Reyna's second interview will be interviewed by a confidant or the right hand of the main Director and the company's lawyer.
Reyna was then allowed to wait and sit back where she had been waiting, side by side with the two women who had just arrived. The two women looked at Reyna with a proud and pretentious look, they did not even greet Reyna even though they were sitting next to each other and were both applying as employees at the company.
The two women were called together, and led to enter and dinterview in Seska's mother's room. Only fifteen minutes after they entered the room, the two of them then came out with their faces bent and simultaneously looked at Reyna with a cynical look.
'What's my fault with them? Why are they both looking at me like that?' Reyna could only speak inwardly, puzzled at the gazes of the two women who then walked out of the room of the HRD Division.
