WHAT ABOUT ME?
51

In accordance with Ida's prediction, bu Tari arrived at 2 pm with her husband by driving a car from Jakarta.

I immediately ran out to open the gate to welcome my master's daughter.

Seen grandmother Ida out of the house approaching the car that was just parked in front of her house, she welcomed her daughter-in-law with a happy cry while I helped the driver to bring down his luggage.

"mom, is this the suitcase directly put in the room? " ask me while pushing the suitcase into the house

"yes, just put it directly into the room, later on in the cardboard you put in the kitchen, son" he said sounding very smooth.

I nodded immediately carrying his suitcase to the room that was provided.

finished lowering the luggage, I immediately made a drink for my master's son.

Four cups of warm tea were ready on the tray, with my heart full of heart I led it to the living room.

"please drink, sir... "

"thank you Jasmin"

I nodded "same mom.. "

I went to get out of there, but Miss Tari asked me to sit down with them.

"while Jasmin, sit down first.we chat first, aunt often heard the mother's story about you, but have never seen you directly" prevent it, he said, so did my grandmother Ida who asked me to sit down.

"what's wrong mom? " i'm a little tense, afraid that during my work here I'm too troublesome grandma Ida.

"don't be so tense, aunt just want to ask you aja. oh yes, your school is less than one year huh? "

"yes ma'am, right"

"the plan after this you want to continue where?, said mom, you go to school majoring in fashion? "

"maybe I don't go on anymore, ma'am, I just want to work so I can help my mom"

"sadly, said the mother, your design sketch is good, dear if not developed. how about you later join aunty to Jakarta, to take care of the aunt boutique there? " the bargain sounds tantalizing.

to be honest, I really wanted to take the opportunity, because, said Grandma Ida, in addition to the boutique, Miss Tari also has her own convection, but if I agree to it, it means that I will leave mother and Jefri. still one area I often go home because I miss, what if I go to Jakarta, if I can always go home, it will be very difficult especially if I work full time there.

"you think well first, we will not force, only we really like your personality is very kind and friendly.

if you please you can tell mom to tell us if you agree, later for transportation, we will help" continued Mr. Rizal, husband of Bu Tari

"later Jasmin think first ma'am, sir, because there is a mother and sister Jasmin at home so Jasmin has to negotiate everything with them, especially this is still a long time" I replied.

mom Dari smiled at me "mom didn't choose you to stay with her... "

After a little talk, I resigned myself, because later in the afternoon I will return to the village.

while waiting for Grandma Ida and her son to finish eating, I chose to pack the clothes I would bring home later in the afternoon.

my bedroom door was knocked from the outside, Grandma Ida called me asking me to come out for a while.

"yes grandma? "

"Later you go home let it be between drivers, yes, it's too late, grandma is worried about you"

"no need to granny, it's too troublesome grandmother and family, Jasmin will take the angkot only, usually at three in the afternoon there is still passing" I refuse.

"have not refused, grandma and Dance worry about your safety, you are a woman, not good to walk alone especially the afternoon.

grandma is waiting in front of you"

"yes Grandma, thank you so much"

"yes the same... "

***

I'm on my way 30 minutes, coming home soon.

the car stopped in the courtyard of the house, I immediately went down and thanked Mr. Budi for taking me home.

Previously I had invited him to stop by but he refused because it was late afternoon, he was worried stray if the house was too dark.

some neighbors who knew I was coming home in between cars. Luxury also ran. approached me and intercepted me who was about to enter the house.

"eh Jasmin, wait a minute" said Ms. Lek Gani, my neighbor

"what's wrong, mother, looking for me? "

"no. but that's who, why the tumben came home in between luxury cars, don't tell me that you - "he squinted his eyes while pointing at me, some mothers also look very curious about the truth.

"oh that was yes.that's Budi sir, the driver is Bu Tari son of grandmother Ida bu Lek" I replied.

some of my neighbors already know if I go to school while working, so they are no strangers to my employer's name.

"don't lie to you! " he just doesn't believe

"no Lek ma'am, it's really my employer's son's driver"

"oh so yeah. yeah already there in then"

after that, I continued my steps to enter the house, not forgetting to say hello first before calling mother.

I saw my mother in the kitchen with Jefri, I immediately approached them and hugged her tightly.

"astaga kak, who do you think you were. he said to come home tomorrow, why did he come home today? "

"yes, Grandma Ida says I can go home, so I'm going home, I'm very upset with mom"

"what up? in the same liam? " ask mom. indeed several times Liam drove me home when school holidays, he said he missed with mom so come with me home and the afternoon will return to the city

"not ma'am, Liam has returned home.was home among the drivers bu Tari his son Nek Ida. Geez ma'am, the car is very good! " my screams are stirring.

"loh cook, why are you not surprised anyway? "

"the name is also a luxury car mom, where the wonder of the car engine! " excite me.

this afternoon I spilled all my yearning out to my mother and Jefri. I also told mom that Miss Tari made an interesting offer, and I said that all the decisions were in my hands, mom wanted me to choose a path that would suit my own heart.

Next morning.

Today my three best friends and I plan to walk around the park.

For a long time we did not gather and share stories, certainly a lot that we will discuss later.

I was ready with the best clothes I gave from Grandma Ida last month. Long white tunic with a skirt and a cream-colored hijab looks very beautiful, she said, don't forget not a sash of giving bu Tari I also wear.

mother went into the room, she smiled when she saw me

"how's mom? " ask me while turning my body.

"mother's son is very beautiful, this dress is very suitable for you.

geez, mother until not realized if the daughter of the mother has become a very beautiful teenage girl" said the mother full of admiration.

I smiled very sweetly, then hugged mom very tightly "boy who used to dong! " excite me.

mom broke off ksmi's hug and told me my friend's friend had arrived.

"then your friend's friend is waiting for you outside" said the mother then passed out.

I immediately grabbed the helmet on the table and took it out to approach my friend.

Arriving on the terrace, I saw three motorcycles, but there should only be two because we were going to leave in a piggy bank.

but my gaze shifted to someone who was sitting next to Rania, he smiled strangely as I stared at him without anyone knowing.
