My Office Boy's
20. The Arrival of Guests

" I'm sorry.sini, I'm medicine." persuaded Kalia while helping Surya stand up. Kalia still felt guilty but also wanted to laugh seeing Surya's expression of confusion as well as pain.

" It's okay. Akang wants to pray at dawn." said Surya while walking limp to the bathroom.

Kalia scratched her non-itchy head. He feels guilty.

After the dawn prayer, they sit on the terrace while enjoying fried cassava and warm tea served by Bu Ati. The atmosphere of the morning was so peaceful and calm. Even the usual nausea attacks Kalia when the morning comes, when it goes somewhere.

After eating a few pieces of cassava, Surya then helped his father make a baglog in kubung. Kalia is with Surya and his father. He just found out that it turns out Mr. Asep has more than 10 connections. Some of them are ready to harvest, but the price of oyster mushrooms is not as high as usual. So the rupiah obtained was not as much as usual.

During the day Kalia and Surya say goodbye. Before going home, they plan to take a Kalia car that has been repaired in the workshop owned by the Surya brothers.

When he returned home, Kalia brought her beautiful car back and Surya used his favorite motorcycle.

Arriving home, Kalia lays her body on the bed. His body was sick when he did nothing. This pregnancy was exhausting, she thought.

Suddenly as Kalia was lying down comfortably, her phone rang. Mama Rani called him. He then pressed the green button on the screen.

" Help, Mah.."

" Waalaikumsalam's. Lia..healthy neng?" ask Mama softly.

" Thank God be healthy, Ma. My mom is healthy too, right?"

" Yes, you're healthy, just lonely at home, there's no you."

" Mm..Mamaa.don't say that, Lia so sad." Kalia's eyes glazed.

" Lia will pick up Mama, yes, so I can play here."

" Yes oruh, later tell me if Lia wants to pick up so Mama can be ready."

Mama was silent for a while as if hesitating to continue the conversation.

" Ehm..Li's. This morning your friends came to the house." said Mama.

" Mama was angry with them because of the incident that hit you the other day. Mama regrets their attitude. Amel and Ira cried, Mama could not bear to see it. Yes, we have the same Mama tea forgiven, they until the cry kejer that." explained Mama then heard sigh. Kalia was silent.

" Are you afraid this isn't tea?" Ask Mama because Kalia didn't respond to anything.

" What about Mah, how?"

" Yes..Mama said to them, it's your destiny. It all happened, what else. Only Mamah gave them the same warning to not do such things again. Let's ah they're offended too and it's wrong they did anyway."

" Mama keep telling them that now Lia is married to Surya? Mama tell you what Surya's job is?"

" They had asked how you are, yes Mama said if you are pregnant and have married Surya. But Mama didn't tell me about Surya's work anyway. It doesn't matter either Mama Maharaguin said to them. The important thing is that Surya's work is halal, can't be stolen, can't be helped."

Kalia breathed a sigh of relief, thank God that Ira and Amel did not know about Surya's work. Kalia wasn't ready when her two best friends found out.

" So they want to see you soon, want to congratulate you directly."

Kalia was silent, she was actually lazy to meet her two best friends. The anger in his heart had not fully recovered. Moreover, Kalia was also lazy to introduce Surya to Amel and Ira.

" If Mama said it's good for you to meet, I'm sorry about your meeting. But if they feel they bring bad influence again, do not mix too familiar. Naturally. Just maintain a good relationship." advice Mama Rani.

" Yeah or yes.mama want to get ready first ah. There is a complex arisan soon at the house of Bu RT. Greetings to Surya. Sayin, when Mama played there rowdy. Ask how to make a bonsai. Hehe.."

" Yes Ma.later Lia same surya kang."

" Eh.had called akang geuning now mah yaa.good oruh. Who get along well.don't get angry continue the same Surya tea, pity miss hangers." Mama Rani giggles.

" Yes yes..Mama hang up the phone. Assalamualaikum".

" Waalaikumsalam." replied Kalia.

Finished calling, Kalia was stunned. What should he do if his best friend is really coming to this house. It seems like she has to slightly change Surya's appearance to be more fashionable and not shy. Understandably, these two friends of Kalia do have a high taste about the opposite sex. If they find out that Surya is just an office boy, surely Kalia will feel ashamed to face her two best friends.

Not long ago, there was an incoming message on Kalia's mobile phone. From Ira.

Liaaaa, crazy you ya wedlock not legal temen yourself. I want Amel to meet you very much. Can ya? Pleases.

Kalia read the message over and over, her head throbbing. He was confused as to what to reply..

You know what my wedding background is because of. I don't think I can invite a lot of people to attend my wedding. I feel ashamed.

Ira is typing...

Don't talk about it, Li. I feel so guilty. Sorry me and Amel.

Hemm..can we meet? I want to say congratulations to you and your husband.

Kalia is confused, Ira and Amel are really coming. Should he reject it. But Mama's words continue to ring in the ear that Kalia must be able to forgive her two best friends and assume that the incident she experienced the other day is part of the destiny that Kalia must live.

Come, I'll send you the address. When will the plan come? ask Kalia curiously.

Could this afternoon not? we are free again.

Kalia was startled.she did not expect that her two best friends would come that fast while she had not prepared anything yet.

Calm down, we are not long because after from your house, I want to go straight home to Jakarta. There's a family event.

Kalia thought for a long time, then typed..

Yes already.lu come here.

Anyone else want you to eat? let me buy it. I don't want to say I'm upset if his mother's cravings are not obedient..

Another message from Amel.

No, you two have come. No need to bring anything. Kalia retaliated

Okay, wait for us yeah darl. See u

Kalia finally thought of inviting them today. The sooner they meet, the sooner Kalia's problem is solved. He did not want to be continuously interrogated by his two friends about the continuation of his life after the fate of that night.

Kalia sent her home address to Ira. And immediately look for Surya to set a strategy when his two best friends come to meet them.
