Chapter 137 The Desireful Meeting


"If you are not at home, you can stop immediately later" said Rico.


"Are you sure, Clara?" jhony asked doubtfully.


"Yes, are you sure?" ask Yuni too.


"Yes, but I'll be looking for another job. If I get better, I stop" replied Clara.


This time he had already thought about it, he had to work immediately as many depended on him. Rico had also allowed him to stop at any time, so it didn't matter what it was like to try.


"You're gonna start today?" ask Rico.


"Tomorrow yes, today I will visit my sister after coming from here" replied Clara.


"Then is there a job for me, I can't possibly let him be here alone?" ask Jhony.


"You can learn to be a bartender or if being a waitress like Clara doesn't matter either" Rico replied.


"All right, I'll try. Thank you, Bang Rico" said Jhony.


After informing about the working hours, basic salary and others they immediately say goodbye. They part ways with Yuni, as Clara and Jhony still want to stop by Cindy's house. Their journey is quite far, because Cindy's house and where they are in a different city although still neighboring. After traveling for about an hour they finally arrived.


"It's 9 and a half hours, I hope Cindy hasn't slept. Hurry up and tell her to get out without the others knowing, I just want to meet brother. It's too risky if my husband and his family know where I am,"


Without waiting for Clara to repeat it, Jhony called Cindy.


"Hello Jhony, tumben once you call," said Cindy.


"Cindy come out for a while and let no one else know, I'm now in front of your house. Remember, don't let others know,"


Jhony instantly turned off her phone, while Cindy still felt confused. He was still trying to digest Jhony's words just now, a lot of questions in his head. But he still followed Jhony's direction earlier, he came out slowly so as not to cause a voice that attracted the attention of other family members.


Clara and Jhony waited patiently, their eyes not out of the door of Bima's house. They purposely stopped by the side of the road so that no one would know. After seeing Cindy who was carrying Jhony's crackle waving her hand.


"Jhon, why are you here? Why should I hide and not just go in?" ask Cindy who doesn't know where Clara is.


For whatever sake Clara was very happy to hear her brother's voice, after almost a year of separation now they can meet again. A pair of siblings who have always been together in joy and sorrow, always supporting each other are now reunited. Clara immediately burst into Cindy's longing embrace, leaving Cindy very surprised.


"Sister, I miss you so much" said Clara, not taking off her arms.


"Is this really you, Clara? I'm not dreaming, am I?"


Cindy immediately pinched Clara, making her scream in pain. Then they laughed together. Cindy kisses Clara, she misses her.


"Sorry yes we can not for long, later we continue on the phone. Please brother keep this meeting a secret and assume never to meet me, I promise you a story later,"


Cindy is still confused by Clara's words, but she complies. Surely what happened was not a simple thing, he knew Clara would not act rashly. Almost a year he disappeared, a time that is not short but his sister is able to live alone, Clara is really a strong woman.


"Actually I also miss my nephew, sister's stomach is also big huh. We'll go for a walk sometime, I miss being together first,"


Clara stroked Cindy's enlarged belly, her pregnancy already entering its fifth month. Because this second pregnancy made her stomach bigger than the first pregnancy.


"I want to tell you a lot too, Clara. Your number has been dormant for a long time, so I can only swallow my own problems,"


"Why don't you call me, Cindy?"


"I didn't think of Jhon, everything that happened shocked me. Especially when Clara disappeared, I felt really sad,"


Cindy lowered her head, obviously if she had too much trouble.


"Sorry, brother, I've worried you. Later Brother will understand if I have told you. I've given birth to a son Kak, he's currently in the care of his father and mother in the village,"


Clara remembers her son who missed her so much. A handsome and adorable little baby, the encouragement of his life all this time. Cindy was surprised by her sister's words.


"What, so you've given birth? Then you go pregnant huh? Then does Juan know?"


So many questions that Cindy asked, it turns out many events that Clara experienced during their separation. His life is so heavy, he salutes Clara can survive so far.


"Clara let's hurry, fearing that someone will come out" Jhony said.


"Let's tell me something, brother, here's a little bit for my nephew. Pray for my good fortune, God willing, I will give again,"


Clara gave Cindy a wad of money, knowing her brother was struggling economically. Cindy looked at the money, she could not believe her sister gave her that much money.


"Clara, this is a lot. You also need money, especially now that you have children, you should not just keep it,"


Cindy felt bad accepting it, Clara struggling herself was certainly harder for her to raise money. She still has a husband who supports her, so every month there is certainly income even though sometimes it is not enough. But Clara refuses, forcing Cindy to accept.


"So don't worry, tomorrow me and Jhony have started work. I also still have a stash of money, so please don't refuse ya. I have to leave immediately before Kak Bima's family is suspicious" said Clara.


They told Cindy to go inside the house immediately, after making sure everything was safe they rushed home. Sadness soon ran through Clara's body, whether she had to live secretly like this. Although the incident was a long time ago, but fear still enveloped Clara's heart.


Jhony continues to ride a motorcycle through the crowded city of Surabaya. The atmosphere was inversely proportional to Clara's lonely heart. But the girl felt grateful because she was no longer alone, there was Jhony who always accompanied her. He knew Jhony would always protect him, just like old times.


"Jhon we stop eating first yes, if we have to eat at home sir Iman again. Tomorrow we just look for costs so as not to bother them," said Clara.


Jhony according to what Clara said, the girl was already on her own steps. Eleven o'clock in the evening they just arrived home.


"I'm sorry, we're home until last night, we stopped by your brother's house. God willing, tomorrow we also start working" said Clara when Mr. Iman opened the door.


"It's okay, son, thank God if you get a job. Where do you work, son?"


Clara and Jhony looked at each other, confused to answer. He was afraid Mr. Iman would misunderstand his work.
