You're My Antidote

You're My Antidote
Felt Small


It was only fitting that his senior-Lura could not find the documents the King requested. Because what the King is looking for is old documents.


With a frown, Rani carries the map in her arms.


"Sorry sir, this is the document you asked for." he handed it over after being let in. "If you may know, why did you ask for this document?"


As the King's secretary, he has a right to know, no, what his superior is doing?


"No. Not very urgent. You just put it on the table."


Rani placed the map she brought before the King with her forehead folded deep.


If it is not urgent, for what the King is angry and urgent will fire Lura if until the document is not met.


"Want me to order lunch, sir?" bargain Rani later, remembering what her senior said earlier.


Only then did the King raise a gaze from the documents towards him.


"Mbak Lura said you haven't had lunch yet" explained Rani to the King who looked at him questioningly. "It just so happens that I haven't had lunch either" he added because the King was still silent and didn't respond.


"Can. You just order what you want to eat. Just think of it."


Rani smiled and nodded. Get out of the king's room to sit at his own desk. Right in front of the King's office.


Although the King said he could order what he wanted, but his boss was a picky person, so he could not choose. Fortunately he memorized all the foods he liked as well as the ones the King disliked. So it was not too difficult for her to choose their lunch menu.


No wait for long, the food he ordered came in warm conditions. After moving it to the plate, he took the food into the King's room with a tray full of lunch.


Although Raja often acts annoying, but Rani knows Raja is the type of person who better not eat than eat alone. Because his boss does not like solitude.


"Why different? what are you eating?" the superior stared at the plate the man was holding and compared it to the contents in his bowl.


"Father didn't like smoothies for lunch, so I ordered sweet sour shrimp and veggies." Rani stared at the Smoothies Bowl she was holding. The food consists of pieces of several variants of fruit, granola and honey.


"Why do you eat that? I'll ask you to order the same."


Rani clucked in heart. Why is his boss today more chatty. Though usually if you don't like it, the King will only say 'Replace!' and if you like it will just eat in silence without any protest.


"I'm not too hungry to eat rice yet, sir" he replied, not wanting to argue. "At the same time the bride-to-be is prohibited from eating too much carbo, fearing that later the dress will not fit." Rani quipped on the status of those who will soon give up the single period.


He handed a glass of water to the King who suddenly choked at his words.


In Rani's heart laughed. It's funny to see the king misbehaving this way.


***


Because it is still on leave, Rani immediately went home after finishing lunch.


While he was in the elevator to get off, his phone rang. The name of Mother Latitude was listed as a caller that immediately made her rush to lift.


"Hello ma'am, Assalamu'alaikum."


"Waalaikumsalam, dear." Lintang's mother softly replied as usual. "Mom hear you're on vacation today?"


"It just so happens that mom this afternoon has to control the hospital, but you're playing golf with Rafi. You can accompany mom for control?"


It is impossible for him to refuse, for that instead of carrying his motorcycle towards the orphanage, he actually drove towards the King's house. Where Ibu Lintang is waiting to go to the hospital.


"Well, you've established the hijab, Ran?" asked Lintang's mother as soon as she got off the motorcycle and greeted him.


"God willing, mom. Pray for istiqomah."


"Definitely darling. I'm glad to see it. I'm also grateful that I didn't choose a candidate for a mother's child."


There was nothing Rani could say but to reply with a smile. "We're leaving now, ma'am?"


"Yes, the doctor is waiting. But not to worry, the doctor is still a relative with us. Granddaughter-in-law of his oldest brother father."


Rani just nodded. Because it is told without knowing the person he will not remember when he meets later.


It didn't take long to get to the hospital. And sure enough, without having to go through the queue, Ibu Lintang was immediately called to enter the practice room of a general practitioner named Kaina.


"Know, Ran. This beautiful doctor's name is Kaina, she's also still a newlywed, you know."


The beautiful woman laughed with a blush. "Oma could have."


Rani shakes the hand of a woman who seems to be her age. "Rani" he said introducing himself who was answered the same thing by Kaina. The person looks fun and easily gets along with new people. It was proven not long ago to be a family member, but it was as familiar as that with the mother of Lintang who was only a cousin or whatever he called it.


"So this is the future brother of the King, oma? beautiful." praise Kaina looks sincere with sparkling eyes. That woman looks more beautiful than him.


Doctor Kaina directly examined the wound of Ms. Latang when it fell last week. Because Kaina's doctor's patients in front are still a lot so they can't talk too long.


"Don't come, did Kaina, at the wedding of King and Rani? Greetings to Abhimanyu too, tell him to play at home. Don't keep busy in the hospital."


Doctor Kaina laughed and said what Lintang's mother wanted. Kaina's doctor also escorted them to the door of the practice room.


"All right, to the boutique, Ran? let's try to get the dress fitted or not on you."


"Dear, ma'am?" tanyanya's confused. Because he was never once invited to measure whether it was rent or buy. Although for the Shandika family class, Rani sure a thousand percent definitely buy.


"Yes. Mom's been ordering Maira's size for a long time. You guys seem one size. So now we just take care of it. There's still time if someone wants to change."


Rani can only resignedly follow Ibu Lintang to a boutique that is quite famous. Not only the wedding design and the dresses in the boutiques are good. But the brand that is marketed has also rivaled the import product.


And Rani just found out if it also belonged to one of the relatives of the King's family.


Don't know how to. The King's family were all top-class people. And himself...


Rani took a deep breath before entering the boutique. He felt smaller with his small self.
