Restu nibbled his temple repeatedly. Thanks to Bimo and the clarity of the incident last afternoon, tonight he just knew who the girl that will be in a match with his mother.
"You Fara, I've met her a lot, ma'am".
"Trus.?, what do you think, cute child, and according to Mother.he is a good child, cheerful child, suitable to be your partner who is like this block of ice".
Restu squeaked to hear the sarcastic sentence of his mother, "kalo sakep yes, only if well according to Mother, not necessarily.buktinya he arbitrarily cancel the promise, and ..".
"He canceled the appointment because there was a sudden bang, he won the tourist draw. Her mother said to your Bulik, it's her dream, so naturally she prioritizes the destination, after all she also contact you, not quietly go", said Iin Mother cut her son's sentence.
"But, he canceled the promise to leave Mom, I've been waiting 30 minutes. Well, from there we already know the nature of how, doing something, or.he is not interested in a match", said Restu still hard with his judgment.
"No, we also do not know, what reason caused him to cancel suddenly. You said, when he wanted to explain, you broke up immediately his communication, should be horrified first the explanation".
"Yeah.because I don't think it matters anymore, why?, 30 minutes, Mom, wait..".", protested Restu.
Iin's mother turned her waist while shaking her head to see the principle of her son so hard, she was confused how to explain and how to change the nature of this child. "Try to call him again, see him again. If he cancels again or later you ask him to refuse, then you look for another, it means he is not your soul mate!, he said!, but I'm sure you will have trouble finding a mate if your nature is stiff like this, which is elastic a little" said Bu Iin with resigned tone. "Mother's old, son, you're time to have a family, someone takes care of you. We will live it ourselves, have a family of your own, do not let the time later you want to have a family, it's too late, Mother is gone", Iin wiped her tears, "I want to see you marry the one you love, ..", Iin's mother can't continue her sentence, both her shoulders shaken, remembering her own story first.
Restu gasped for a moment to see his mother crying, his tears escaped, he could not see the woman who gave birth to him was crying. Buru - Buru Restu immediately hugged his mother, "Yes ma'am, I am calm...Restu will get married soon, then Restu call again Fara deh", he added then calm the mother.
Iin's mother just kept quiet, and gestured to go to the room.
The DomTrav office...
The next day, Artika knocked and opened the door of Restu's room which was daydreaming about the incident last night. "Sorry sir, the auditor has learned the budget proposal sent by Pimpro the other day, please you learn again, this afternoon we also have a meeting with clients at xxx restaurant", artika said while carrying a bundle of documents that had been corrected by their auditor yesterday.
Restu received the map in his secretary's sodori with an excited face, and then began to open the sheets of paper containing the numbers. Artika stood in front of Restu's desk looking at his boss's handsome face, she saw a stroke of sadness there, "pak Restu, not feeling well anymore?".
Restu looked up and took a slow breath, "hm.no, why Tik?", he answered while linking his eyebrows.
Artika noticed his boss's eye bead, "Not what, because I see the face of the father rather how it is.I mean if again not feeling well, I mean, I can withdraw from meetings with partners later" said Artika afraid that the boss was misresponsive to his attention.
"Not to be canceled, I'm just a little tired, sleepless overnight" replied Restu flatly. Artika nodded in understanding.
Back, Restu was busy studying the budget proposal in front of him, then, "this seems like it's okay, it makes sense", Restu then took the pen to sign it, and then returned the map to Artika.
"Oh yeah, then this ends, you call Bimo here yeah".
"Okay sir, excuse me.", Artika left the room.
Not long after, Bimo knocked on the door and lowered his head, "pak Restu called me?".
"Log in.", replied Restu short and gave the code to sit in front of his desk. Bimo's face was a little tense, because rarely did this boss call special to his room.
"I want to have a casual chat with you for a while, this has nothing to do with the office business, so just relax".
"Well sir.", said Bimo while nodding.
"Bimo, hm..kamu have long known Fara?", asked Restu, actually he felt bad, because asked a girl who incidentally liked by the staff.
Bimo rather jolted with Restu's question that leads to a personal, "ng.not too long ago sir, new too.when he nganter - nganter catering here aja". Waahh.don't say if Mr. Restu also likes Fara, weight nih mah, inner Bimo raging. "Why sir?", ask him if he tried to ask Restu.
"What kind of woman do you think she is?", asked Restu ignoring Bimo's question.
Chaos!, really this.I think Mr. Restu also likes Fara!
"Yaa.in my opinion anyway, he's a rather difficult person to guess sir, rada gaul it.easy to be familiar with men - men".
"Well?, don't you like him?", Restu felt something strange about Bimo's talk.
Laah.that's it, use it again "Huh?.ehmm, ng.yaa how is it?", Bimo blingsatan at the end of such a question.
Suddenly, Restu's phone rang, Restu saw a cellphone screen with the name of one of the company's commissioners plastered there. Then he flicked his hand at Bimo to come out leaving him.
The man who would become his rival then bowed slightly and left without a sound.
Bimo who stepped out of the room Restu cross paths with Artika who was also just heading outside, "Eh.mbak Tika, I want to chat for a while dong? yes" he said, aligning his steps. Artika stopped her steps, "what's Bim talking about?".
"Don't be here, outside yuk...can't you?".
"Kok outside?, soon I want to meet about the same client, same Mr. Restu also outside the office, what's the matter?", asked Artika while walking slowly towards the elevator.
"It's aja deh that, it's not important - it's very important anyway" Bimo pause his sentence for a while because there are some other employees passing, "just.. mr. Restu seems to like Fara deh".
Instantly, Artika stopped her steps. At first glance the hue of his face changed but it was only for a moment, "what did you say earlier?, Mr. Restu likes Fara, know where you are?, do not make strange gossip - strange", scales Artika with narrowed eyes.
"That's the story, it's not good here".
"Oh that was why you were called Mr Restu?, ckk...do not interfere in personal affairs as well as office affairs!", said Artika advising Bimo.
"Loh, Tika's talk should be conveyed to Mr. Restu, he was the one who called me earlier.", said Bimo did not accept in nasehati, he said, then leave Artika who was stunned to remember the words of Bimo earlier.
Any timing? mr Bimo likes Fara?.ah impossible, the ice block kayak people can like...ehh...but, is Fara also idolized by the ice block man? artika's mind monologues itself while tapping the phone to her thigh repeatedly, with her face stiffened.

That afternoon, Restu carefully listened to the exposure of prospective company partners on the plan to work on a hotel renovation in Bali. Meetings that should be held at the company but because it is only the initial stage of introduction, the partner requested the meeting outside in order to. To impress familiar and relaxed.
After being satisfied enough to hear the exposure, Restu felt interested in working together.
"It seems like Mr. Hendri's offer is quite interesting, I am also familiar with this xxx hotel GM, so I invite Mr. Hendri to discuss in more detail with my team in the office, how?", restu said with a smile.
"Oh, may.by Mr. Restu, ready.I really hope to be able to cooperate with this DomTrav company, whose reputation has no doubt about its capabilities. And, I also hope, not only cooperation in one project, but can continue in the future in other projects" said Mr. Hendri excited. How not, to be able to work with DomTrav is very difficult to do, GM is Restu Mapendra is a person who is famous for being cold and very thorough.
"Hm..kalo so.", Restu paused his sentence and glanced at Artika on the side, "try you set the schedule of the next meeting with Mr. Hendri, but in the next week, in the next week, my schedule is empty, right?".
Artika opened her tablet and checked, "there is a pack, between Wednesday and Thursday next week can" he said as he put the tablet back in the bag.
"Where is Hendri sir, next week there's time?".
"Can Mr. Restu, it is very possible, so try to keep our schedule for the next week yes", he said then led to his secretary.
Next, they continued with lunch, occasionally interspersed in casual chatter.
"Oh yes.sorry, Mr. Restu graduated from xxx university in London right?", asked Hendri's secretary named Samantha in the middle of the casual chat. All eyes were on him.
Restu looked at Samantha for a moment, "yes right, how do you know?, or graduates there too?", asked Restu as he wiped his mouth with a tissue.
Samantha looked at Restu's bead for a moment and then nodded, "yes, I know you well Mr. Restu, but maybe you forgot about me", she smiled faintly.
"Oh yeah?, have we ever known? one campus?", Restu tried to remember - remember something, suddenly his eyebrows were linked.
