When You Think Wrong

When You Think Wrong
Asking Adi to Go Home Quickly


I put on a stiff smile towards Tomi who was sitting in front of me. Since the buyer is king, then I must be friendly to every buyer who comes to my store, whoever it is including the Tok cat that I hate


"Can we help Tom?, maybe if my employees don't find the item you're looking for, I'll look for it myself"


Tomi still silently looked at Dinda's face, the face she had missed for a dozen years


I threw my face away a little because Tomi kept looking at me. And worse yet why my heart is still beating so fast.


"Aseem!" I growled in my heart at myself


"Tom?, hey, how come you're dumb?"


Tom smiled so sweetly. The smile that I used to love so much, the smile that always made me miss, the smile that was able to melt my heart when I was angry with him


Back I cursed in my heart to see his sweet smile, because I did not want to look nervous I immediately stood up, walked towards the drink cooler, took two bottles of drink, then put it on the table


"Drink Tom"


"Thank you"


I immediately opened the bottle of tea, sipped it uncomfortable because I was not thirsty, I did it because I was nervous there was Tomi in front of me


"If you want to talk about personal issues, I'm not here, this is where I sell"


Tomi took a deep breath, then grabbed the bottle of drink, not opened it but just rotated it around


I'm sure he's just as nervous as I am. Ahh, Tomi if you knew.


"Is there time to see my sister?"


I put down the bottle I've been holding since


I smiled faintly at her words


"Please mention between us is not that anymore. You just call me a name like I did you"


Tomi shakes. Ah, it turns out he's still stubborn


"Sister can't deck, brother will keep calling adek"


Back I smiled blandly


"Just tell me what you want, what to buy, let me get it myself"


"So don't want to apologize from the scene"


I lay my back on the back of the chair, looking at Tomi who kept staring at my face


"We talk outside then, it's time for me to do it"


Tomi's eyes sparkled


"Seriously deck, when?"


"Depart, I find time first, today I am busy. Maybe tomorrow, maybe next week"


"Sister wait"


I smiled again blankly at her hopeful tone


Tomi then stood up, looking at our employees who were still busy because the store was crowded


"Sir, where was my order?"


Because my employees are serving other buyers, I'm the handle


"This is what you mean?"


Tom looked at the plastic I was holding. He's nodding.


"How many decks?"


I saw the code


"Thirty thousand"


Tomi immediately pulled out a wallet and gave me fifty thousand and I gave him change


"Thank you for shopping at our store" I said


Tomi smiled, before leaving she spoke to me again


"Sister wait"


I was silent not responding. Then Tomi walked out, I kept staring at her back that was getting away


...****************...


Time off I immediately go to the other store, so that I immediately parked the motorbike and immediately entered


I see the store is still crowded, Reni the cashier to the point of being overwhelmed by the many lines that line up to pay


"Have anyone rested yet?" ask me with a loud voice that makes the buyers who queue and who wait for their goods turn towards me


"I've ma'am" appoint three of our employees.


"If so change, let's take three more meal breaks, mothers or fathers who are still waiting for their goods sought by our employees, please be patient" said my friend


They nod their heads. I approached a middle-aged mother


"Have a mother been prepared yet?"


"It's mom, but not everything"


I nodded


"Whose mother's stuff?"


An employee approached us while lifting a sack of wheat flour and putting it near the mother


"I'm mom"


"This is mom's grocery note paper so that mom will look for it, you eat first"


"But ma'am?"


"No buts, eat there!"


"Thank you ma'am"


"Before a moment ma'am, I will take mother's order" I said passing from before him


"Who is Ren?, the new employee?" ask a buyer when paying for Reni


"About, that's our boss"


"Ohhh, how do you want him to intervene directly?"


"Ah, that's normal. Dinda's mother is rich. Sometimes our employees are embarrassed if he intervenes"


The buyers in line nodded their heads hearing Reni's reply


"But how rarely does it appear in Ren's shop?"


"He worked in an office, he rarely went to the store, often father. But this is father again gone"


I brought a soft drink cardboard and put it near the flour sack, then went back inside looking for other stuff


After all my employees ate and went back to work, I sat in the chair my husband used to occupy


I immediately opened the laptop looking at reports of incoming goods and stock.


I saw Reni was not counting the payments, so I called her


"Ren, here you are!"


Reni approached


"Sit down!"


Reni sat in front of me


"Have you ever asked for money?"


Reni was silent, I stared intently at her who was getting restless


"That means ever, when?" broke up because he was silent


"Mom, almost every week"


I shut up, looked back at the laptop screen


"Stock the goods are still a lot, when the sales come in?"


"Usually monday ma'am, because tomorrow's week, the whole sales holiday"


I nodded my head


"Ren, from now on, every father wants to ask for money, you have to report first to mom, if you're angry you call mom, let mom come directly to the store, understand?"


"Keep buk"


"Good, if you're as conspiring as the father, I don't hesitate to fire you"


"Good buk, I recite what mother said" replied Reni afraid


"Yes, back to work!"


Then I went around the store, saw the stock of goods, even I went into the storage area of goods to see how many more items in the warehouse


I pulled out my phone again, hoping that my husband's number was active


Immediately I dialed it, hooked up, but it was not lifted back


"Bad!" infuriated me


With emotion I opened the short message app, typing the message


If it's still alive, the caller gets picked up!!! 😡😡


Sent and instantly tick blue. That means he's active. Soon I'll call him again.


At that time Adi was carrying his son outside, and who was holding his mother Yesa.


Yesa quickly ran to the terrace


"Dinda called pa!"


Adi's face stiffened and he quickly gave the child he was carrying to Yesa.


"You go in there, you don't want Dinda to hear our son's voice"


Yesa immediately entered and looked from inside as her husband chatted with his wife


"Yes buk?"


"Where huh?, from the phone was not active, the active turn is not lifted, in WA just read it"


"Anu buk, father again in this factory, again focus on seeing plastic goods, about what goods are suitable for us to take from this factory"


I was silent, the emotions that had piled up since this morning seemed to be mounting to hear the reason


"When are you home?"


"But do not know when, because mumpung in the capital so I want to go around a lot of factories"


I was breathing rough. I immediately sat down, took a bottle of drink and downed it as my chest grew hot to hear Adi's voice


"You go home quickly. This morning the salesman came to the store, he was hooked. Crazy you Adi, the bill period is over two hundred million???!"


"Where are you going to the store money, huh?, you start messing with me, remember Adi, just a little bit you cheat, finish your history!"


Adi's face gasped at the anger of his wife. He forgot to call the salesman so he wouldn't charge because he wasn't there


Now that everything is known to Dinda, of course Dinda will be angry.


"Anu buk, that's uhmm, adduhhh...."


"There's no noise, there's no ah uh uh uh, you go home quickly, we get this thing done. I want to know where the money is going. Not a little money Adi, nyampe bengek also you will not get the money in a day!!!"


"Yes, I'll be home"


Immediately I disconnected the call, putting the phone roughly on the table


The second store employee who saw the anger of their boss for the first time glanced at each other and looked down in fear
