Love Agusd The Handsome Cat
67. Stone Cake

"Eh.there's a former sister-in-law...ups!" said Big Brother with enlarged eyes while covering his mouth with his hands. Makes everything awkward.

"Where's the august Archi? How come there's no?" ask me to put the luggage on the couch.

"The good thing is to have Dad's job. His boss called earlier." replied Archi.

"Kasian Agust's. He must be sad to have you work." replied Mother.

"Oh yes, Mr. Ridwan. Thank you for helping Archi so much yesterday. If there is no Mr. Ridwan does not know how the fate of Archi now," said Mother with a sad tone.

"Yes Mom. Don't call Mr. Mom, just Ridwan." Ralat Ridwan.

"It's okay to call Ridwan. Kan Pak Ridwan Archi's superior." said Mother.

"It's okay ma'am, I'm also a friend of Archi" replied Ridwan.

"Oh so. Yes it is."

"Have you eaten yet?" ask Archi and Ridwan.

"Not yet." replied Archi while grinning.

Ridwan gawked in the direction of Archi.

"You've just had breakfast." pointed Ridwan to the tray he was carrying, whispering in Archi's ear.

"I don't hear my stomach. Hospital food is tasteless" replied Archi.

"Nothing Ridwan. Just woke up sick so mamayu*," said Mother made Archi's face red.

*Mamayu word in Sundanese which means a great desire/desire to eat in large portions after waking up from illness.

"Yes, I'm delivering online." Dad also ordered in the online ojek application on his mobile phone.

Then I received an incoming call.

"Why then?" ask Mom when dad's back from taking a phone call.

"There was a sudden call from the factory. There was a sudden meeting." replied Dad.

"Sunday gini still just make work," complained Mother scowled.

"Well how else. Job demands. But I'm confused about this, how will you go home?"

"There's my Om. Later I will take you home." proposed Ridwan.

"Oh... No hassle?"

"No, no."

"Yes already. Thank goodness then. Dad left first. Then just take his food order. I paid you with electronic money" Dad said.

"Yes dad."

"Where's kenji?" ask Archi to Mom.

"Next same grandma grandpa."

"To grandma's house?"

"Well, your grandmother's time at home."

Meanwhile on the couch,

"When I agree Archi married you" said the brother was chatting with Ridwan. Ridwan just muttered with a smile.

"You are losing quickly declare your love for Archi." continued brother.

"Sister, I'm horrified loh." timpal Archi glanced cynically. Big brother whines with Ridwan.

"Later I still have a chance, brother, too" whispered Ridwan confidently.

"Oh yeah?" ask brother enthusiastically. Ridwan mangangguk sure with a smile.

Later, Archi was already allowed to go home. I also prepared Archi's return.

"No need to use a wheelchair. I can walk by myself anyway," Archi refused in annoyance.

"wear. You are still weak" replied Mother.

"Geez," Archi snorted.

"Do I want to carry a wheelchair, if I don't want to use a wheelchair?" tawar Ridwan's.

Archi could feel his face flushed now. Finally he relented and climbed into his wheelchair by being pushed by Ridwan to his car.

On the way home, in front of the Archi housing complex. Agust saw Ridwan's car passing with his family.

"That Archi has come home" murmured Agust. But those in the car didn't realize Agust was looking at them.

"Then that man was in my family. How he is revered has become a hero in Archi's life." whispered Agust gloomily recalling the incident last night.

The Flashback

"It's fortunate that there is Mr. Ridwan who immediately splashed into the pool to save you," said Mother while telling what happened to Archi who forgot about the incident.

"And unfortunately, the elevator that took you was also damaged and you were locked in the elevator for an hour more. Mr. Ridwan tries to keep warm your body while pressing the technician to quickly fix the elevator.

"Mom can't imagine if you're not being helped fast. Good thing Ridwan is quick to prevent bad things from happening to you,"

"What does it mean to me. I can't even be anything to you Archi. Only luck would make me stick your husband. But there is nothing to be proud of me. Unlike Ridwan," Agust thought feeling discouraged.

"I'm just a stranger with no past who suddenly enters your life" he murmured.

"Gust!" Irene patted Agust's shoulder.

"Come, walk again!" invite him who just bought something at the minimarket near there.

"Why are you daydreaming?" ask Irene.

"Kok rich sad that?" ask again.

"It's okay Miss. I'm fine." replied Agust.

That night when Agust came home from work.

"Have you gone home from Agust's work?" asked Archi who was sitting on his bed.

"Udah Archi." replied Agust sitting on the edge of the bed in a lethargic manner.

"You why? How lethargic is that?"

"Keep kecapean keja. Just as sad can not nemenin you who are sick again," said Agust.

"That's okay, Agust. I really understand. Don't think about it." replied Archi.

"What time did you come home?" ask Agust pretending not to know.

"Last afternoon" replied Archi.

"I better not tell you if we go home with Ridwan, later Agust is more disappointed to hear," thought Archi.

Monday, at the office....

"You've been working on Archi?" susan asked when she saw Archi coming.

"Yes. I'm well." replied Archi while sitting in his chair.

"We are very worried to know the same situation you drowned" said Andini.

"Yes. After drowning, going to the elevator clinic all damaged again." continued Icha.

"It is fortunate that there is Mr. Ridwan who is sprightly nolongin you," said Susan.

"Yes. I'm so grateful to Mr. Ridwan."

"But the wealth is not yet here" Susan replied looking at the door of Ridwan's room.

"For all!" greet the newly arrived Mr. Ridwan.

"For Sir!" sahut all.

"Archi you're at work?" tanya Ridwan looked surprised.

"Udah sir."

"Is she healthy?" ask Ridwan again.

"Alhamdulillah. Thank you sir for all the help and assistance that Mr. Ridwan has given me."

"Not to worry. I am glad I can help you. Though I already said yesterday that it still hurts today do not need to work first." replied Ridwan smiling proudly.

"I'm okay" replied Archi.

"Oh yeah Thank goodness. Oh yes, Welin. Come with me to the room!" tell Ridwan with a ketus.

"Well Sir!" welin replied weakly while looking down.

"Why?" whispered Archi to Andini.

"He was caught being the one who pushed you into the pool. Want to be in possession of the wealth," replied Andini in a whisper as well.

"Let's know how people feel. Bigos is back again. Wish to harm you" said Susan.

In Ridwan's room.

"Are you really the one who pushed Archi into the pool?" ask Ridwan.

"Not intentionally, sir. I'm joking with others, uh even pushing the Archinya." kilah Welin.

"But what I see from CCTV is not that rich. You deliberately pushed Archi." replied Ridwan confidently.

"That's..."

"Udah ngaku. You pushed Archi on purpose, didn't you?" cecar Ridwan starts to get emotional.

"Yes Sir. But my intention is to joke. I didn't know that Archi couldn't swim" Welin replied in fear.

"Mau Archi can swim or not, but the danger is joking like that!" ridwan.

"I-iya Sir. S-sorry!"

"If Archi wasn't how helpful it was to try. You could be charged with premeditated murder. Now I can sue you."

"Don't sir. Please don't!" pinta Welin crying.
