"Mwehehe..you why Nobu? It seems like a lot of burden," asked Kenta amusedly. "Well, my burden is.you ask me. Understood?" replied Nobu fiercely.
"Hey.casual man. I'm not mocking you. So, what's up?"
"I'm good. Just a little wound, doesn't mean it kills me, does it?"
"But you look like you have a bruise. Who beat you up?"
"The drunk."
"Ehem," someone behind Kenta and Nobu suddenly. "I'm not paying you to talk, okay?" makoto Pak Terang. "Sorry, Sir! We went back to work" Nobu and Kenta said. After receiving an apology, Makoto left their room. "Good.we're in trouble now. Yeah, right?" kenta whispered.
Kenta and Nobu returned to work as usual days. Not felt, lunch time began to approach and sway the mind. And when the time comes, Kenta and Nobu go to the tavern. "What about your job, Nobu? Can you do it?" ask Kenta curiously. "Yes.lumayanlah. Although you have to endure pain occasionally," replied Nobu lazily.
"Then...how is your cat? Does he have a condition like yours?"
"No. Instead, it's better than ever."
"really? Unfortunately you are Nobu. Haha.I hope you get well soon."
"Thank you for the false hope, Kenta."
"Hey.i mean it. Hehe..."
They went back to lunch and rushed back to the office.
At the office, Nobu works while occasionally going to the bathroom. The goal, to replace the bandage and urinate as well as large. A day of work, making Nobu feel tired faster than usual. He decided to go to the kitchen to make coffee and have a snack. When he was at the kitchen door, he accidentally ran into someone.
"Eh.sorry, Miss. Go ahead first," said Nobu. The woman just smiled in response to the words Nobu said. The woman also passed Nobu without saying a word. Feeling a bit awkward, Nobu rushed to do the activities he wanted. He made coffee while taking a little snack in the jar.
...****************...
"Consideration! Today is a special day, where you will do overtime for the benefit of the company. For that, please cooperate, especially for Nobu, Kenta, Mino, Hiro, Daisuke--" said Pak Makoto, "and the administration. Also, I will introduce new employees. His name is Himawari Sora."
"Thank you for the introduction, Mr. Makoto," said Himawari.
The employees sat back in their respective booths after notification. The opportunity was used by Kenta to whisper to Nobu over his frustration. "Look at the old man, he told us to overtime Nobu. That's a very annoying thing. Errr.." said Kenta annoyed. "Here you go, let's just say it's our bonus. I guess.." Nobu responded.
After the short conversation, Himawari unexpectedly came to Nobu's room. "Hi Nobu.we meet again. Introduce, I'm Himawari" Himawari said. "Yep.i-iya. What the hell are you here for?" asked Nobu awkwardly.
"I came here to hand over the files on January 3rd."
"Ah. Thanks, Himawari. That's very kind of you. And now?"
"Um..Who are you going home with tonight? Can we be together?"
"Together.eh, I-I went home with Kenta. Is that good?"
"L-yes..."
The conversation was finally over, Himawari left it. Nobu returns to his job and gathers the files Himawari gave him.
...****************...
"So..where is Himawari's place? It's close to here, isn't it?" ask Kenta. "Yes.not far from here. How's yours?" ask Himawari again.
"Same, it's just that in front of the fork there I'm gonna turn."
"If I were still straight again. Are you Nobu too?"
"Eh.um, i-yeah. I'm still straight again" replied Nobu."
"Ah.ok. Almost there. Careful y'all. Daaa.." said Kenta.
"Dada.you're also Kenta. Thank you, yes" Himawari said quite loudly. Oddly, Nobu and Himawari walked together without speaking. They continued to walk slowly to the point that the silence felt somewhat sinister. Because of this atmosphere, Nobu took the initiative to reveal something to Himawari.
"I. I. have a cat named Julian, domestic male," said Nobu. Feeling that his words were not related, Nobu returned to silence without paying attention to Himawari. The same thing was done by Himawari, namely silence without a word. It continued until it passed the front gate of Himawari's house. "I've arrived Nobu. This is my home, hehe." Himawari chuckled.
"Ah.ltya. Good night to you Himawari. Have a good rest," accompaniment Nobu. Like the previous reaction, Himawari just smiled and left. However, that expression was what Nobu awaited so that he quickly went home. Now, he was alone heading towards his house with dim lights all the way. Before long, Nobu began to think about Julian's condition at home.
Until a while passed, Nobu arrived at the front of the house. He rushes in and searches for Julian's whereabouts in every room. "Hello Julian.I'm home! Did you miss me, bro?" ask Nobu. "Miaow.meong...mauw..rrrr...meow.." replied Julian sumringah in response to Nobu. They embraced like friends who had not met for a long time.
"I miss you Julian. I'm sorry, I came home late because the boss gave me a bunch of errands."
"Meow..fm..meow...meow...grrr..."
"Yes.iya.iya. Are you hungry? Want to eat again?"
"Maung.maung..young...meow....rrr.r..."
"Okay, I'll get you ready."
Nobu immediately took off his office clothes with a T-shirt and shorts.
Then, make prepared dishes, water, and wet food for Julian. "How does Julian feel? It's delicious, isn't it?" asked Nobu while stroking his head. Seeing Julian eat it voraciously, Nobu took a deep breath and let out a long sigh. In fact, he even thought about finding another new job. But he does not know yet what job is suitable for him.
"I actually feel sorry for you. To eat, you have to wait for me. I wanted to quit that job, but I didn't know the alternative. Look, I don't seem to have any talent. I guess.." Nobu lamented. Julian did not respond too much to Nobu, he only focused on his food. Until the meal runs out, Julian sleeps leaving Nobu awake alone.
About...what should I do? thought Nobu. Because his body was quite tired, Nobu finally fell asleep following Julian. That night was truly a confusing night for Nobu's life. On the one hand he still needs money, one side Julian. He can't choose one, more important, between the two.
Moreover, in addition to his injuries due to the beating event yesterday. The pain is many times the must he face tonight. All he knew was that he had to survive for his survival. I just hope there will be a bright day tomorrow. In addition, for Julian also as a source of happiness to both.
