THE WOMAN (END)
•56
"So please latte it for table 24!" one of the baristas pushed a tray with two cups of latte on the table in front of me.
I smiled as I picked up the tray and immediately took it to the customer.
A very tiring day, there is not even time to think about anything else than delivering orders until they arrive at the customer's table.
Middle busy, working suddenly Mr. Ivan out of his work room.he seemed to be in a hurry while continuing to glance at his watch.
"Your bonuses have been stored on the table. Please take care of them!" mr. Ivan's orders to Ikhsan.
I stared strangely at his hasty departure.Will he return to the office? could it be that she met Sandy? my thinking.
Mr. Ivan seemed to turn his head towards me for a moment, making Ikhsan and Metta also come to look at me. I turned my face as I walked towards the pentri.
Ikhsan walked over to all of us, who were gathering at the pentri.
"Friends thank you very much for today.you guys work very hard.we close at 4 pm. and your bonus you can take later after the work is done." he explained.
All the workers applauded and cheered at the bonus they would get from their Boss.

I walked casually towards the employee locker room while releasing the Apron on my body. Today was really very tiring.but also very pleasant.how not, how not, seeing customers smiling happily has become a happiness for the waiters in this store.
"HUH! tired of it," Aisyah leaned lazily in the doorway. I looked up and smiled at him.
"There is no job that does not drain the ice!" pecker
"Yes, but today it's super tired really.Is it possible because the store is still new? or am I surprised, this is my first job?" muttered.
"Rather than you mengedumel Gak clear, we better go home now!" take me while picking up the sling bag that I keep clothes rack.
"Eh, fuck brother! don't leave ice!!!" the girl ran while taking off her apron violently and then pulled her bag immediately.
I saw several other employees in line in front of Mr. Ivan's room.Ikhsan looked busy with a bunch of brown envelopes in his hand.
"Don't fight! gotta orderly!" he joked to other officers. Me and Aisyah waited for our turn in the back.
"Sister, I'm curious about the same attitude of Mr Ivan to big brother? what the hell is it? you know each other, right?" whispered
"No, we don't know!" elakku
"Relatedly? but it looks like Mr. Ivan is still watching out for Alis!" obviously still can't believe it.
"Maybe it's because I'm older than you, that's why he keeps thinking of me." Selorohku.
"Then anyway? I thought you were ex-girlfriends!" chirps.
I turned to wonder at the girl.maybe he concluded such a thing against me and Mr. Ivan.but indeed this Mr. Ivan is very disturbing,his constant stare at me made others even more suspicious.
"But to be honest, Ivan sir is very good! He opened a branch of this shop in several places, just to help us young people to have a job.he also always gives bonuses to all workers!" brightest.
"You know where it came from? you're working together now, Ivan?" I'm not sure.
"That's my brother among young people, Mr. Ivan is very famous.his father is a famous doctor.he is also from the elite.his generous attitude that makes him famous" he said
"Hey! you two? want to take no bonus? if you don't. Let me share with each other?" goda Ikhsan looked at the two of us who were busy chatting.
"God! don't fuck around!" Aisyah ran ahead of me and immediately grabbed the brown envelope in Ikhsan's hand.
Today's work ended very well even though we looked exhausted, but we were immediately tired of being replaced after seeing the contents of the bonus that Mr. Ivan gave to all his employees.
I'm even surprised to find out that Mr. Ivan split us 1 million in cash the first day. Is that how good he is? or is this just a tactic to bind employees so they don't run away easily?
I walked limply into the public transport. Having previously parted ways with Aisyah and Ikhsan Karna they were different directions from me.
I opened my phone in doubt, hoping that there would be a message tucked 'from her' but unfortunately, all that is just a pseudo-expectation now'. why hasn't Sandy been texting me all day? is he very busy? or maybe he's sick? I frowned anxiously at the thought that he was really sick and would not tell me. Do I need to call Hasan's doctor to make sure? inner wondering.
I shook my head softly in disapproving of my ego's advice just now.It could be that Doctor Hasan thinks if I'm overdoing it. Obviously I'm not working for him.
"Armgh!" Grit slowly.
Without me noticing some of the passengers in the car were noticing my strange behavior. I threw a wry smile at them Because of the shame.

Tonight I just finished tidying up all my clothes. A woman who's a mother, doesn't have a tired dictionary. Like any heavy work out there, she will still be a mother who also has responsibilities that are no less heavy in the house.
Sometimes I lyric Andi who is busy drawing.
"And again there's PR?" tanyaku prank
"Yes ma, the PR is drawing!" obviously, focus on that picture.
I went to the living room, sitting in front of the lit TV, but somehow my mind still wandered far away. Even so I keep trying to focus and forget the restlessness of my heart about Sandy mas.
YEP! maybe my anxiety is just a momentary feeling that if I close my eyes, it will just evaporate.
I'm not the kind of woman who can decide what I want. I had to think again and again to decide what I should do. Moreover, I remember very well the message from Bu Ayu who asked me to stay away from her nephew. But, what about Sandy's feelings that she told me yesterday? should I just ignore it? isn't that too evil?
"Ma" Andi exclaimed as she walked out of the room.
I was surprised for a moment, and looked at him.
"Udah finished dear PR?" tanyaku later.
Andi smiled, hiding the picture book behind her body.
"Udah" he answered
"Mom see Andi what picture?" I stretched out my curious hand.
Andi then took out her picture book slowly. Presented the book until it looks the work he drew.
Instantly my heart throbbed pain. Even Andi seemed to feel the same way as what I was feeling right now. Miss her.
