Sorry your Husband I Borrowed

Sorry your Husband I Borrowed
Anger


Monday is a busy day. Schedule in my office, full. Starting from the morning apple to the office tasks, it is waiting.


But, I was forced to choose to be absent, because Fira suddenly had a fever. I also asked for permission from the Head of Tourism Promotion Section in the section where my office works.


"Sister, permission yes. I didn't go in. My daughter, suddenly has a fever. I have to take her to the doctor, sister," I said, chatting to Kak Mona.


"Oh. How many years is your child?" ask Kak Mona, Head of Tourism Promotion.


"Two years, brother," I said.


"If after finishing from the doctor, can you enter?" ask again.


"God willing, my brother, do it" I promised him.


But, I can't possibly feel like leaving Fira in a fever, even though I've taken her to the doctor.


"This is my father's order. Don't let you break it" he said cynically.


That leader is like a god. He must obey all his commands.


In order not to prolong the problem, I'll do what Kak Mona said. Whether I can or not go to the office is business. All that matters is that I take my son. For me, family business, number one.


"Mas, I'm not in the office. Take Fira to the doctor first, this morning," I said to Mas Arga.


"OKAY. But what is your office business. You've only been on staff for a week. The wear period is absent all. Your leader will be angry, how?" ask Mas Arga.


"Udah. Safe, really. I've got permission from my Kabid." I said to convince Mas Arga.


"Yes already then" said Mas Arga, passing away leaving me and Fira both in the room.


Fira is hot. I am worried about his condition.


He did not want to eat and did not want to drink milk. I'm really worried about it.


"You, where. This hour has not yet entered the office. You are working."


Confused I could chat like that. I looked at the profile picture of the sender of the chat.


"Huh. Oh gosh. This is the boss's number. Hmmmm. He changed the number. Didn't I have Mona's permission? How is this the answer!?"


"I've got permission from Mona, sir. Tourism Promotion Kabid," I said replying to her chat.


"Your boss, me or Mona?!" ketus answer.


"My son is sick, sir. I had permission earlier with Brother Mona, ask permission to take the child to the doctor," I replied with a tone of annoyance mixed emotions.


"Sister Mona why is evil as me huh. Not that I told you, ask permission to take Fira to the doctor. How is there such a man!" I was full of emotion in my chest. It hurts me so much. I didn't go to the office, but there was a reason.

"Sister. I told you the same brother. Ask permission if I'm on holiday, want to take my son to the doctor. He's got a fever, brother. The heat is very high, 37 degrees Celsius." I explained at length to Mona.


Want me claws and hairpins him, it feels.


"If you have finished your business to the doctor, you can enter the office. The task I gave you yesterday must be completed today. Tomorrow we'll have a meeting with the governor" the fierce boss ordered.


For my safety, I also agreed to what he ordered.


"Yes. Well, sir, I'll work on it" I replied.


In my heart, "I think," said I. If only I could answer that. I'll definitely tell him that.


If I wasn't his staff, I would have fought him. "Patience......Winona.sabar yes. Your pain got a fierce boss like a lion!" I said trying to calm myself.


"Don't be late. 14.00 Hours wib. I wait!" strict orders.


"Yes, sir" I answered briefly.


I don't want to be trapped in this situation. Between work and family. Equally important. But I'm more of a family priority.


***


Before he escaped as an officer. I don't have a maid. Fira I take care of myself. Because I already have activities in the office, so I hired a maid.


Bismillah. Finally got a maid. His name is Bik Minah. Once there is Bik Minah at home, Fira is safe if left to the office. The milk, the bottle. God, I feel guilty for my son. Feeling like a cruel mother, a child, left to work all day at the office. But, whatever I can do, I was given a chance, passed the CPNS test.

"Bik Minah's. Titip Fira yes." I said sadly.


"Yes Buk. Hope the work in the office is smooth," said Bik Minah comforted me.


"Thank you Bik" I said.


"Yes, I've been to the office for a while Bik, tipped Fira. Later I give more money Bik, make Bibik buy food," I promised him.


I try to give her my best. Although my own salary is mediocre. I just want my son to take care of her when I'm not home.


Although only a month Bik Minah work at home. But, I consider him to be like his own family.


If I'm sick, or Fira is sick, she's very patient in taking care of him. In fact, Fira treated Bik Minah already like her own biological child.


Fira is also very spoiled as Bik Minah.

"Why didn't you tell me you were on holiday?" ask him firmly.


"Sorry sir, I explained through a chat on whatsapp" I obviously tried to defend myself.


"Now I ask. Your leader, me or Mona. Why you only let him. Here you are my staff," he snapped.


"Yes Allah. Sir. Fire me if indeed the father can not accept my reason why I am off today. I'm not walking sir. I took my young son to the doctor. He has a fever sir" I said at length and my eyes were glazed over.


"Why the hell did I get such a fierce leader like him" I protested inwardly, as I felt depressed today.


"Can be quiet. Remember. You're still a new staff here. Don't fight me" he snapped as he kicked the desk in front of him.


"Yes, Sir. I'm sorry sir" I said in a hurry to apologize to him.


After I apologized, he kicked me out of his room.


"I want you to finish the task I gave you yesterday. I'll wait until it's over. Do it right now!" orders again.


I swear I'm afraid to see him angry like that. But, it's my fault. Why I answered what he was protesting.


"It's all because of Mona. If he had given my permission, to that fierce boss. This incident will not exist. May Allah repay Mona. In fact, I told him, ask permission not to enter. It turned out to be severe like this, the risk I did not enter.(***)
