...24. The Aunty Sarah's House...
Argha could not close his eyes at all because of thoughts about his decision a few hours ago at Planet Cafe.
Yep.
A few hours ago Argha had just agreed to the ridiculous wedding requested by his beloved sister, Gista. It was solely Argha did just to keep Gista close by while making Gista happy.
Gista expressed emphatically that her happiness was to see the woman who had grown up smiling happily and her adoptive sister marrying the man she deserved according to Gista's version. And that decent guy was himself, Gista's own older brother.
As a form of gratitude to the woman named Sarah for caring for and loving Gista, Argha was asked to return the favor by Gista by marrying Elmeera.
Silly indeed...
But Argha had no other choice. Splitting up for years with Gista left Argha unable to think clearly. Moreover, the shadow of the accident a dozen years ago caused guilt in Argha's chest.
If only at that time he did not ask his parents for a vacation out of town, surely the accident would not happen. He and Gista will not be orphans and his family will be happy.
But all has happened, because of his request for a vacation... Gista who is very small does not know who his parents are and has never felt the affection of his parents must be separated forever with his parents.
Unlike the very Argha that was big enough, Argha had many happy days with both parents. That's the biggest reason Argha wants to always make Gista happy.
"Can I survive a silly marriage with a haughty bint-bearing woman like Elmeera?" Argha muttered softly as he stared at the ceiling of his room.
Argha is worried, on the one hand besides Gista asking her to marry Elmeera Gista also asks her to never let go of Elmeera. Elmeera planned a farewell before the wedding.
"Araghhh! This is absolutely insane.If behind Aunt Sarah there were no Bramantya family to protect her, I would have let Gista go with Aunt Sarah. Then, I'll easily find Gista back. But this is nothing, the Bramantya family so go along to prepare for the departure of Aunt Sarah." Marbled Argha rubbed his face violently.
Argha who was annoyed with his own fate finally fell asleep long ago as well.
...***...
Argha who felt very sleepy because he could not sleep well last night, this morning he had to go to the office with a feeling of laziness that thrashed.
Had there been no problem concerning him even the matter threatened him getting entangled in the legal process, Argha would have chosen to work today. Not to mention Argha's promise to Gista who will visit Aunt Sarah's house to talk about the problem yesterday.
Today is going to be a really shitty day for Argha....
"Gha... How is the office problem? What's the development?" Arsen asked as Argha had just walked out of his room.
"It's unclear.all the charges point to me. Yesterday the secretary of the finance director told me that this morning the director wanted to talk to me."
"Secretary of finance director?" Gimana Arsen and answered a nod of the head by Argha.
"Don't my conjecture as human is true?" Arsen asked again looking at his best friend questioningly.
"Let's see.we prove it later after I meet the bald guy."
"Eh but... After you get married to Elmeera and get 1M money, will you pay the company money?" Tanya Arsen who last night had become a friend confided Argha about the game Gista.
"No. I just want to dredge it money cocky woman. later I donate anyway if I love to the company, then, isn't it going to make everyone suspicious of their own assumptions? in the usual staff like me can get 1M money to replace it all? Where'd you try."
"Good.we follow the mafia's game your family's company."
"Hmmm, I will reveal everything and I will not forgive." Answer Argha calmly.
"It's important you always have to be careful.I'll monitor everything from afar." Arsen patted his best friend's shoulder in encouragement.
"Thank.. I'm leaving first..." Argha. While Arsen today has to take care of something that concerns the Argha problem in the company. So Arsen chose to make a sick permit from a letter from his doctor acquaintance.
...***...
Argha drove his Vespanya motorcycle back to exit the RMJ Group company where he currently works as one of the finance staff.
Riding his own motorbike in the middle of the crowded streets of the capital city with the atmosphere of twilight makes Argha's brain more work. In addition to thinking about what he will talk about with Aunt Sarah later, Argha also thought about meeting with Mr. Amir this morning, the man who served as finance director.
Mr. Amir, the thick-bodied man that Argha knew as a cousin of his late father, invited Argha to make a deal.
Mr. Amir promised to free Argha from the case that was happening to him at this time, as long as Argha would cooperate with him to bring down the director of Production by manipulating the spending report of the part of production that is fully Argha hold.
But this morning, Argha was not able to give an answer on the grounds of not wanting to rush into a decision because everything has a big risk to itself.
Argha did not want to misstep, he had to discuss everything first with Arsen and Papa from Arsen who was a confidant of papa and Argha's grandfather.
It did not feel that the motorbike Argha was driving had entered the elite housing complex in the capital. Argha's heart suddenly beat like a man who would meet his future mother-in-law for the first time.
Taking off the helmet he was wearing then smoothed out his appearance, Argha inhaled a deep breath of air before knocking on the door.
Tok
Tok
Tok
Chequek.
"Sore bik." Sapa Argha on the housekeeper at Aunt Sarah's house.
"Sore. please enter the den." Said Ira who happened to open the door. Bik Ira had met Argha several times, so he had already memorized it.
"You want to meet non Gista?"
"No. I want to meet Aunt Sarah bik." Answer Argha.
"Wanna see mom?"
"Yes, there's something important I want to talk to him about."
"Well, I call Sarah's mother first den. den Argha please sit.."
"Thank you, bik..."
Not long after Ira's bik left, a housekeeper younger than Ira's bik came carrying a tray containing a cup of warm tea for Argha.
"Please drink it... Said Ira, Sarah's mother was still in the shower... Aden, please wait a minute..."
"Yes bik. thank you." Argha said kindly. Argha tried to smile with a heart that actually rumbled violently.
"Argha...." Argha who was drinking tea was suddenly aghast to hear his name being suddenly called by someone.
