My children are not my seeds
Chap41s. The Surprising News

Leyna was crying alone in her room. Worrying heartily remembered the journey of life that made self-hatred.

The men outside are unaware of Leyna's pain, except for Johan who keeps a question mark. The men thought Leyna was just tired from the trip,

“Pak Sukirman, take Johan to his room” orders Mr. Hartanata.

“Good Sir. Let's nak Johan” Pak Sukirman intends to take Johan upstairs, to the room next to Leyna's room.

“Sorry is it allowed me to take off kangen with my village brothers in mess only?” pinta Johan to Mr. Hartanata.

Mr. Hartanata looked at Johan, then his eyes stared intently at Anto, the beloved foreman.

Anto returned Mr. Hartanata's gaze with a nod and a slight bowing salute.

“Hhhhehhh.” Mr. Hartanata took a deep breath.

“I'm sorry Pak” Anto voiced out, found Mr. Hartanata long staring at him, without a sound.

“Good. Although there is much I want to talk about, I cannot force” Mr. Hartanata.

"Thank you sir" said Johan.

“We beg of you” Johan and Anto say goodbye.

“I beg you to say goodbye Sir. Tomorrow because there is a job in Jakarta, you may not have time to stop by this house” Johan said.

“Yah. I entrust everything to you To, I know you can” Mr. Hartanata still had time to tell Anto. I don't know what it means. Only Mr. Hartanata and Anto know.

Anto again nodded and bowed and invited Johan to leave the big house accompanied by a look of wonder Mr. Sukirman.

“Why did the young man choose the workers mess, even though it was prepared a luxurious room next to Miss Leyna's room?” batin Pak Sukirman is full of questions.

On the way to the plantation, Anto spoke quite seriously to Johan.

“I can't believe you miss our village kids in the mess Mas Johan” Anto glanced expecting to get a reaction or at least an expression from his statement.

“It turns out I'm not as busy as I determined To” said Johan.

“Why Mas?” ask Johan.

“Somehow, that big house really made my heart chuckle the guts” Johan said with a wry smile.

“Ha ha ha, is it because you have to sleep alone?” Anto teased a mischievous fluffy smile on her lips.

“Heh. I think you've understood that I'm always inferior when dealing with high social circles, moreover, this conglomerate is suddenly so good to me with the reason his daughter” Johan is indeed considered a shy young man even though many hang out with begundal children like Anto.

“Actually I can accompany you if you were staying there Mas” Anto regret.

“Not to, I think mes and begundal kids are much more interesting to me” Johan flanged.

“You yourself how to get to know and be close to the conglomerate child so Mas?” Anto is still curious.

Johan looked at Anto before asking a question.

“Didn't you meet him when he first returned to his home To”.

“Ya, yes. Just glance. I had thought there was a rough girl at Mr. Hartanata's house at that time” Anto remembered he was being called Mr. Hartanata when a girl was quite shabby to surprise his master.

“Ha ha ha ha. His face and appearance are deceiving right To?” Johan amused himself at first thought Leyna was just a girl from the ordinary.

“Perfect disguise, until Mr. Hartanata with his influence was unable to find the hiding of his daughter” stressed Anto.

They were silent for a moment.The vehicle they were riding in began to enter the plantation streets.

“Tuan Hartanata was indeed noble heart Mas, do not be seen from his high appearance large, dark skinned with a sharp gaze” Anto back voiced.

“He was a Mas plantation person, his youth life was also hard like me. Although now the largest and most respected plantation owner, but never he occupied himself as a manager in front of the workers. He even hates to be called as tuan” Anto continued.

“How can such a good person make people disinclined To? Is it because of the treasure?” Johan wonder.

“Bukan Mas, on the soft side he remains a reliable businessman. Stay firm with partners who do not do business properly, or dare to cheat. Keep an eye on work with discipline. He did not hesitate to go down to plantation” said Anto.

“Hheh. Your story makes my heart quite relieved To” Johan as if releasing the burden.

“Indeed why Mas? What do you doubt about him?” ask Anto.

“I was surprised, first saw the house of Leyna I was so shocked, how could he easily accept me, even had time to prank me with a video call at that time”

Johan was actually very embarrassed considering the events in Silancur. As he was caught wet under the covers by Mr. Hartanata.

“ha ha ha ha. After knowing that you are my cousin, Mr. Hartanata showered me with various questions and investigations every time he met me”, Anto said.

“Not Mas, our past must be forgotten. I am indebted for your kindness in restoring Nike and me. So I assure Mr. Hartanata that his daughter will surely be happy if with you” Anto reassures her cousin.

Johan looked at his cousin closely.

Cars heading for the mess slowly offset the uneven road shaking of the plantation, until it stopped at the courtyard commonly used for parking.

While carrying his backpack, Johan walked towards mes mandor. It was seen that the workers had rested because it was dusk.

“Sis kok new shower you at this time?” Johan stopped to greet Siswo who was walking from the bathroom towards the worker's mess.

Unlike mess foreman, workers made public bathrooms lined up at the end of the mess.

“Iya mas” Siswopun stopped his steps facing Johan. Bend down to greet. His head was not looking at Johan.

“How are you, healthy right?” Johan reached out his hand,

Siswo welcomed as his body slightly bent to make Johan astonished.

“Why are you? Pain?” ask Johan.

“No mas” replied Siswo.

Parmin who sees Siswo meets Johan and pays homage comes closer and does the same. Johan was getting more astonished.

“You guys why? Don't be weird ah. Stand right” sergeant Johan

Johan pushed the two men's eels with the tips of his fingers until his head looked up.

“Ha ha ha ha. Min, Sis. You are why. Mas Johan will not like you to treat once Anto” who has finished securing a vehicle approaching the three of them.

“Iya Mas, sorry Mas” Parmin and Siswo still do not dare to look at Johan's face.

“Have put your bath tool first, will soon follow to mess we make fried rice rame-rame and coffee until morning” Anto command. The two garden workers leave Anto and Johan.

“Why are they acting so strange to me To?” Johan was intrigued by the actions of two of his neighbors' garden workers in the village.

“All the workers here have heard the news Mas” said Johan.

“What news? Told you I'd come to mess? What's special?” Johan was curious.

“News that Mr. Hartanata will marry his son” said Anto.

“Oh, deservedly madam Hartanata and sister Leyna not seen at home, may be looking for wedding trinkets” thought Anto in heart.

“Almost every morning Mr. Hartanata visits this plantation and asks here and there about the tradition of marriage to local workers. Understand this the first time he will marry his daughter” Anto explained.

“Wah means if you follow the tradition, there will be no obstacle later if Leyna wants me to marry. Don't have to jump over her brother” Johan thought.

“He wants to immediately fondle grandchildren he said. Even this morning he did not return home or to the office as usual, he took lunch here” continued Anto.

“Oh yes. Until how? When is the wedding To?” ask Johan.

“Quickly, if the brides are willing”, Anto said.

“You're this weird To. You mean the wedding is ready, but the bride hasn't been spoken to?” Johan astonishment.

They went to mess foreman. Anto took off the bag from his carrier hastily requested by Mr. Murti the head of the household Mess. Mr. Murti put a backpack in the room and served two glasses of bitter coffee favorite Anto at the guest table.

“Still Pak” said Anto.

Mr. Murti nodded to Anto and bowed to Johan then returned to his room.

“How to talk Mas.” Anto continued to smile meaningfully.

Johan tilted his head and widened his eyes waiting for the continuation of Anto's explanation.

“The bride-to-be once entered the house immediately locked herself in the room. While the groom chose to sleep in the foreman mess to coffee with the workers. Is it not a headache Mr Hartanata?” Johan was still tilting his head forward, then a wobbly look left right.

There is only himself Anto and Mr. Murti in mess foreman.

“Ha ha ha ha.. Mas. You are indeed a lucky man to marry the daughter of Mr. Hartanata” continued Anto.

“Prrfh” Johan to spray bitter coffee that he wants to drink.

“Do not joke To!” Johan widened his eyes.

Anto stood up, bent down and continued.

“No Mr. Johan, I am serious, please forgive me if you do not deign” Anto laughs proudly his cousin can easily enter into the family of Mr. Hartanata.
