Tangled Yarn Shackles
Surprising news!

Day after day had passed, it did not feel like a week had passed. Everything was going on as usual and Anne began to adjust to the office environment. He began to blend in with some other employees because every break he always came to the cafeteria company with Risa. There Anne began to introduce Risa with several office employees. Om Rudi let that be, he gave Anne space to adapt to her employees and of course an exception for male employees.

"An, today we will be overtime" said Risa after standing up from her chair.

"Veasy? Why do I have to be late, Mom?" anne asked as she looked at Risa who was walking towards the glass closet where important files were stored.

After passing the first day of work, Anne decided to call Risa and Pras in a more formal language. At first they both objected. However, after hearing the explanation from Anne, they did not protest anymore. Calling 'sir' and 'mother' makes it easier for Anne to communicate.

"Yes, at the end of the month Mr. Rudi often overtime. Pras and I also had to come overtime to help Mr. Rudi prepare the office financial statements. Not too long kok overtime," said Risa after returning to her seat.

The sound of the phone on Risa's desk stopped the conversation between the two. Risa is still talking to the caller who is none other than Rudi. Anne knew about it, because Risa mentioned her husband's name several times.

"An, you were told by Mr. Rudi to help check the report in his room. At once bring the report on the yellow map, yes," said Risa after the call was interrupted.

"Okay, ma'am" said Anne, standing from her seat. He retrieved the file according to the one mentioned by Risa.

After knocking on the door several times, Anne entered the room. He immediately sat on the chair that was across the desk, not forgetting he handed over the file mentioned by Risa earlier.

"Pi, today's overtime, huh?" anne asked without looking at her husband.

"Yes, we have to overtime, dear," replied Rudi, opening the file carried by Anne, "why? Are you tired?" asked Rudi after looking at Anne.

"It's not me who's tired, but I'm worried about Papi's health" Anne said, this time staring at the serious face.

Both corners of the lips were drawn inward when they heard the little attention of the wife. There was a sense of warmth running through the heart as Anne worried about her condition. Perhaps, Anne had already started to have the same taste as him. I thought about Rudi.

"Darling, can you make Papi some black coffee?" ask Om Rudi after decades of focusing on his report, "You guys bring Papi's favorite beans that are already available in the pantry," continued Om Rudi.

After hearing orders from Rudi, Anne immediately went out of the room to the pantry to prepare a request from her superior. A few minutes later, Anne had returned with a tray of coffee and peanuts from Rudi's request.

"Pi, don't eat nuts too much! Remember that! Papi is old!" anne said after putting the jar of beans on the right side of the husband.

"Not eaten yet, dear!" raudi protested as he looked at Anne who had just sat on the chair.

"I just want to remind you, because everything that is excessive is not good!" anne said without looking at her husband's face.

Hearing that, made Rudi smile again. Both returned to focus on their respective work without any discussion about peanuts and others.

...💠💠💠💠...

At eight o'clock Anne arrived at the apartment. He threw himself on the sofa in the living room to stretch the stiff body muscles. Just a few hours of overtime made Anne feel tired. Shortly after, he reached into the bag by his side after hearing his phone ring.

"Yes, Papi is not here! Papi's at home instead of having to go back and forth!" anne said as she massaged her nose, "don't overtime too late, Pi! Take care of your health, Pi!" he said before the call was interrupted.

Anne immediately got up from the living room, she swung a step towards the room to clean herself up before taking a break. Tonight he had to sleep alone in this room, it felt a bit different because Anne was used to sleeping in the warm embrace of her husband.

"It's been a long week of work!" anne grumbled while massaging her shoulders wrapped in white bathrobe.

Anne had just come out of the bathroom after flushing her body with a warm shower. His body felt more relaxed than before. He immediately picked up the pajamas stored in the cupboard before going up to the bed.

"It's not good to be alone here! Usually there is talk. Uh, now it feels lonely," grumbled Anne after laying down on the soft bed.

Time just keeps passing by. Anne still could not sleep even though the time indicator almost reached the number twelve. He felt lonely and empty in the spacious room alone. There was no warm caress that he was used to feeling. This may be called longing.

"Duh! I have to do this again!" gerutu Anne while sitting leaning on the headboard of the bed.

He grabbed the phone that had just been placed on the nightstand.

Anne opened her cell phone gallery. The finger was directed to touch the folder containing old photos of his family. The thin lips just puffed up while staring at loved ones who were already calm in nature. Every now and then the tear drops just so wet the cheeks.

"Pa, Ma, Anne actually misses! Can't we just meet through a dream?" muttered Anne with a view that can not be separated from the cellphone screen that displays old family photos when she was a child.

"Anne will try to live better, Ma." Anne smiled bitterly after saying that, "Anne will definitely fight for the ideals that Papa once dreamed of!" he murmured again as he rubbed the wet cheek.

Anne was back in bed when the memory of her brain replayed the memories of the past. Anne spent this quiet night reminiscing about a wonderful moment with her late father.

Time goes on non-stop. The dark sky began to turn bright as the sun began to appear on the eastern horizon. The timer was already at number six, but Anne was still curled up behind a thick blanket that warmed the body. The sound of the alarm many times was not able to wake her deep sleep.

The phone has been ringing for a half hour. There have been more than ten unanswered calls because Anne is still busy wandering in the dreamland.

A few minutes later, Anne opened her eyes after hearing her phone ring again. He grabbed the phone on the nightstand to see who had contacted him several times.

"Become?" Anne distanced her face after finding out who had contacted her, she quickly shifted the green icon to connect the call.

Anne was stunned from her current place when she heard the news delivered by Dara. He immediately got out of bed and went to the bathroom to clean up as soon as possible.

"OK, Dar! In a moment, I will be going to the main house! Tell bi Una or bi Sari to wait for my arrival" Anne said before deciding on a call with Dara. He looks panicked after hearing the news about Rudi who was just delivered by Dara.
