The Childish And The Beast
#8 Is Not Without Enigma
The red finally graced the writing of the date on the calendar. Adira can breathe for at least half a day. He wanted to leave early in the morning, so he was facilitated even though there was still half a day left to run the project before the deadline.
Half a day, he was eager to take a visit to his mother's house.
GUK! GUK!
“Hai, Ebony,” Adira bends herself in front of a dog, “You're getting bigger.”
Minimalist house with bright green highlights. Makes it look prominent even in the middle of large houses. In line with the hobby of the mother who likes green fresh plants.
Plants are dominated by various types of foliage, really bring nostalgia for Adira.
This is not the place where he was born. The mother still carried the remains of the house, even though it was not hers. Take care of it until it spreads. It was as if the mother intended to move her memories.
“High breakfast, not yet?” this mother invited her firstborn child in.
“Not yet, mother. Just later. Dira here until noon kok.”
This young woman no longer wants to make her child grasped too tightly. This figure always let his children fly as freely as possible. He also knew that Adira preferred to spend her time playing with her sister.
The mother's instincts are never a doubt, Adira really wants to pay for the sister's wait for her visit.
“Aaak!” this sister looks very happy.
“Halo, Nata,” Adira stroking the youngest's thin hair, “Kakak buy this.”
“Wueeaa!” he slowly grabbed the prize.
Simple and beautiful. Such a small doll might be able to provide immense happiness.
“Iii kaantour ghimanya?”
“How curious what is in the office sister?”
This little sister is trying to show her upset expression, “Gyak by?”
“By kok,” memory after memory is dug up again by Adira's brain system, “Hmm..
“Eapa? What?”
“There's a new OB boy in sister's office. He's a free soul, no, maybe he's just stupid. So stupid he got off guard and almost made a missing sister partnership.”
“Rus? Erus?”
“Keep..., yes because brother partnership is not a problem, brother just let him work. When my brother said he was acting up again. Tell her she's younger, hold her brother's hand. He also asked permission to call with his sister as well. Weird.”
“Ciii eee!”
“What?”
“Hehehehe.”
Downstream the sound of crowded vehicles on the streets of the complex. Not teasing a pinch of sweet moments by both ratna. Let alone the noise of the wanderer outside the house, the clockwork right between them is not caught.
Finally sprain the meal time at noon. Even for an ascetic virgin like Adira need time to estimate the body.
“Nata is asleep right?” this mother brought a large bowl full of clear fruits.
“Already,” Adira tagging dishes and various partners, “Nata hard to sleep yes at night?”
“Custom. Yesterday he had a chance to watch a horror movie.”
Adira with the mother laughed a little considering the behavior of the youngest child.
“Well, come. Ate. There is no reason not to eat, right?” mom pulled both ends of her lips as sweet as she could.
Adira's raised shoulder realized he did not want to refuse. It had been a very long time since the last time she had tasted the cooking of the woman before her.
“In the office there is a problem?” mother also has a great curiosity for her child.
Adira finished her mouth that was still chewing, “There was a problem, but no papa kok.”
“Good,” the mother plays her spoon and fork, “If there is any reason, remember mother loh. Here and there, mother must also help kok.”
“Iya bun's. Thank you.”
...◇ ◈ ◇ ◈ ◇ ◈ ◇ ◈ ◇ ...
Four months of struggle. Their efforts are nearing their deadline.
One of the rooms still lights up even though it's tomorrow. Even if you only have a few minutes of work on a new day. These people soon did not need to busy their fingers from various designs in all dimensional numbers.
“We've done it for now,” Adira can finally see the blemish where all the effort is enough. He knows, all these people also have to face clients with fit conditions, “Yang want to go home please.”
“Remember! Ten o'clock, all are here!” Daffa reminded with eyes that never sleepy.
“Good...,” limp has cornered their work spirit.
Their dim eyes still had to go a long way for the word to end. Like the schedule they have prepared. This four-man team chose to run away and take advantage of the remaining time. So that the word tired can be revoked immediately.
Adira, of course, will not disperse him quickly. As much as he tried enough, there were still less things.
“Bu, you are not taking a break?”
Those brown eyes are still busy with bright curtains that blend with the keyboard, “You go first. I'm still waiting for my driver.”
“Then let me drive you home.”
“No need.”
“But you must be tired.”
Finally Adira's view was sidetracked, “You're just as tired as I am. It is quite dangerous to drive alone in the current situation, you want to make it more dangerous?”
Daffa could not answer, however much he did not like silence.
“Just go home first. Be careful on the road.”
Daffa's mouth shut with his defeat persuaded the superior. Adira's assertive personality is unshakeable.
“Please rest while you have time, Ms. Adira,” Daffa small bowed her head.
“Iya. You also,” his eyes back shifted when Adira has made sure that his secretary out of the room.
A few minutes Adira passed with the glare of the quiet gathering room lights. It's almost Pancarona's entrance. Despite being so soundproofed from the room managed to eliminate all that bustling behind it.
Up to Adira's arm from the table, for a moment he felt nothing more could be equipped.
“Hm?” Adira realizes the sound of incoming messages.
Behind it was a message from the driver. Car bearer obtained from Adira's money was stalled on the road.
The driver's remorse changed nothing.
The time on the walls of this room indicates the time of departure of all members in each head of the family. Metropolitan city streets full of economic buildings have no reason to be deserted. It's not anyone's driver's fault.
Stretch out that tense upper body. Adira is thinking of finding the wind or something that makes her seem rested.
‘Maybe I went to the coffee shop across all the waiting..’.
A steady purpose. He stood with an innate that was no less steady.
Really time is not wrong, the current designated number is working time for people. Various pleasantries but friendly greetings were thrown to the number one figure in Pancarona.
The continued shock shakes inside Adira's sling bag again bothered her. He thought, it was just his driver who often felt bad for his boss.
Adira did not like to hear the shakes of the call and piled up a lot of notifications. He chose to lift it.
Silently for a moment, a number he did not know appeared on the front screen.
Adira lifts it up and brings it closer to the ear, “Ya?”
[“Morning mom. Right this is with Adira's mother from Pancarona?”]
“True. Who am I talking to?”
[“I Diva, party Business Development bank Taruna.”]
Adira captures the situation, they have something that needs to be informed.
[“Begini, mom. We have an impromptu timeline that needs to be met by noon. Is it possible to present the mother's team design this morning?”]
Adira's steps no longer stopped, but were already glued to the floor. His surprise brought the sleepy self to hope that this was just a nightmare.
