NOT PERPETRATORS
Whose house?


Work hours are over. I'll get my work desk straight away. I turned off the computer, then packed my things into a bag. When I finished, I went home.


"Imania!" exclaim secretary Ve.


"Yes, Brother?"


Secretary Ve handed me a cardboard package.


"What's this?" I asked while accepting it.


"Your working uniform. Starting tomorrow, put this on, huh? I gave you a dozen office uniforms. So ... You don't worry about not having time to wash, do you?"


"Well, this is a lot, brother?"


"Yes, already. Let's go!" Secretary Ve walked out of the office.


Let's gohome? Whatdoes thatmean?


Secretary Ve turned to look at me. "Why shut up? Comeing! I'll drive you!"


"You're gonna take me home? Then all right," I replied gladly. So I don't have to wait for Fania to pick me up. He must be sleeping.


I got into Ve's secretarial car. In the car, Ve's secretary kept me talking.


"Imania, Dimas told me a lot about you. He said you have a son?"


"Yes, that's right. His name is Arka—Kenan Arka Sebastian. He'll be three years old soon" I explained.


"Imania, are you sure about your relationship with Dimas?"


"Yes, I'm sure!" steady answers.


"What do you think of Mr Wibowo?"


"I think he must be a very wise man. The proof, he can handle the company very well," said I argue.


"Imania, are you sure Mr. Wibowo and his family will accept you?"


I was silent for a moment. Thinking for a moment. Could they possibly accept me?


"As time goes by, they will definitely accept me" I replied optimistically.


"I am overwhelmed by your belief. I hope so, too," said secretary Ve flat.


"Didn't you trust me?" I asked the secretary Ve.


Secretary Ve let out a rough sigh. "The love that Dimas gave you is beyond doubt. He's trying to give you everything he can."


I looked at the secretary Ve who was driving his car.


"Imania .. someday a greater ordeal is bound to come. At times like that, all you have to think about is the happiness of the people you care about. So you can't be selfish. Is there anything more meaningful than being willing and sincere?"


"What do you mean, Brother Ve?"


"I mean .. You have to be prepared for the consequences. If you are ready to fight, then fight. But someone must have been hurt. There are often fights that can hurt both."


I'm trying to digest Ve's secretary words properly.


"However, if one day you decide to withdraw from the war. Then you also have to be prepared for the consequences, which is to lose the victory" he continued.


Secretary Ve does look cute in attitude. But the more I got here, I saw the mature and attentive side of Ve's secretary. There was no doubt why Dimas was so close to him. In fact, I who just knew him also felt comfortable when he was at his side.


"Sister? I am not a person who gives up easily. I will get through everything well. You just wait, how about it!"


As I was observing the streets, I realized that I was not on the road to my parents' house.


"Sister? Where are you taking me?" much worry.


"I'm going to kidnap you! Ha-ha ...!"


"Sister? I'm going home?" I look like I'm whining like a kid.


But not for long the car stopped in front of a house that was quite magnificent.


"Whose house is this?" many confused.


"Come down!"


I stared at the secretary Ve's face for a moment. Although Ve's secretary looks enigmatic, but I don't think. I trust her. I got out of the car too. The secretary of Ve.


Is this his house? But ... why did he bring me here?


Secretary Ve opened the gate of the house. We also entered. This house looks comfortable. Quite large and magnificent. Secretary Ve opened the door.


Inside the house, Ve's secretary took me around every room.


"This house is so good!" my comment.


Secretary Ve just smiled to see the mimic of my face which is still very impressed with the decoration of this house. There is a swimming pool in the backyard.


"Sister? Why is your house so quiet?"


Again the secretary Ve did not answer. He only smelled a smile as I looked and said amazed at the luxurious classic design of this house. The nuance is comfortable too.


"Sister? Do you live alone in this house?" I sit on a very soft sofa.


The secretary Ve came closer to me. He opened his bag, then took something out of it. He handed me a file.


"Here, there's something to sign!" secretary Ve said while giving me the ballpoint pen.


I received the file and signed it.


"Is there any other file that needs my signature again?" I asked after signing the letter.


"Not yet!" replied the secretary Ve while smiling.


I also handed the file into the hands of the secretary Ve back.


"Don't you want to read it first?"


I also got the file back.


"Home Ownership Certificate?" I read it back. "Home Ownership Certificate!"


"Sister Ve? This what?" I said surprised.


"Didn't you read it?"


I still don't understand. This it? This ....


"Sister Ve? You're kidding me, right?"


"I'm not kidding, honey. From now on, this house is officially yours!" he said while smiling.
