Resi's Meeting with Fiva
Saturday has arrived. Resi remembered having responded to Vera promising her to immediately inform him of his appointment on Sunday.
'Tilililing tililing' Vera's phone rang.
"Hello Vera. Tomorrow I can meet you at the place you have mentioned. What time did you ask me to get there?" said Resi.
"O Resi, previously I was very grateful to you for being willing to fulfill my request. At 9 in the morning you come to that place, "said by Vera.
"Okay, okay. See you the next day" said Resi before hanging up the phone.
Sunday arrived, at exactly 09.00 Resi arrived at the restaurant in the city of Annecy. So far, he has never been late for any event and is always on time, because for him being on time will train him to be disciplined. He even instilled this principle when he was still a child.
Vera did not come to the town of Annecy alone, but was accompanied by Fiva. Suddenly, Resi was surprised and surprised to see Vera bringing a woman she didn't recognize, she wondered why Vera had brought other people to the meeting between the two.
"Hello Resi" greeted by Vera four steps before sitting on a chair waving.
"Hi Vera" greeted back by Resi.
"Meet her, Fiva, the person I told you about, she accompanied me in Paris," said Vera.
"oh I see. Hi Fiva, introduce me to Resi and I'm Vera's new friend," said Resi while holding out his hand to invite Fiva to shake hands.
"I'm Fiva, nice to meet you Resi," said Fiva while shaking Resi's hand. 'turns out this guy is handsome and looks cool too' Fiva muttered to herself while still shaking Resi's hand.
"Let's order food and then eat together, and we can continue chatting casually," said Vera.
Resi called the food delivery waiter, and the food delivery service handed out a book on the dining table containing information on food and drink menus. The three of them were both busy choosing their own favorite food menu. Resi, who is a devout Muslim, tries to avoid ordering food made from meat, because he does not yet know whether the meat is slaughtered with a prayer recited or not, because of this, Resi only orders food with a variety of side dishes of vegetables and fish. Resi also did the same thing by Fiva, because Fiva is a devout Muslim, so she also doesn't order meat-based food. After the waiter delivers the food that has been cooked, they immediately devour each other's
food. I asked you to come here just to introduce you to Fiva. It's important for me to tell and report to my friends for everyone I know in Paris, as well as to add friends" Vera said while they were enjoying their respective meals.
"I agree with what you do. For safety's sake, it's important to introduce new people to those closest to us, said Resi.
"That's right, we just chat casually while eating" Vera replied with a smile.
"Fiva, in what way did you come to Paris with Vera?" asked by Resi.
"In terms of the work that brought me to this country. Actually it wasn't planned, but this was all intentional, I and Vera were summoned to come to this country for our own business, "Fiva answered.
"How long have you lived in Paris? Did you also stay the first time Vera was here?" continued to be asked by Resi.
"I first came here a year before Vera was here, not sure how long I have to stay here. Sometimes after a few months, I go back to Indonesia and settle there temporarily, then for a few weeks then I have to return to Paris," explained Fiva.
"Resi, Fiva" Vera called so that Fiva and Resi looked in front of her, "I hope from our chat this morning, we can establish more intimacy between the three of us" he continued the conversation.
Resi and Fiva responded to Vera's words by nodding their heads and smiling warmly. After they were satisfied chatting, the three of them split up and headed back to their respective lodging houses because it was noon and they had to rest. Arriving at the inn, Resi called his mother to just ask how he was.
"hello mom, how are you mom now?" greeted and asked by Resi to his mother.
"Hey Resi. Good news mother, how are you from yourself?" replied and asked back by Mrs. Lia.
"I'm fine too mom. Because it's a holiday now and there are no tasks to complete, so I took the time to call mom" Resi answered clearly.
"Take care of your health, son, I love you very much. Come home later to be in mother's arms in good condition, every time mother always prays for the best to be with you" said Mrs. Lia in a voice that sounded like it was holding back tears of longing for her child who was starting to be unstoppable.
"Okay mom, I will always take care of myself for mom and dad" replied Resi. "I'll end the call, mom, I want to rest first, and I'll call mom tonight so I can talk to dad too, assalamu'alaikum," said Resi.
"Okay son, wa'alaikumsalam warahmatullahi wabarakatuh" replied by Mrs. Lia.
Sure enough, tears of longing dripped from Mrs. Lia's eyes, a mother always hopes for the best for her child, moreover Resi is the only child that Mrs. Lia has. In fact, no mother is willing to let her child go away from her side, memories of being with her child are something that is considered special, but ready or not, parents will be left by their children to pick up their destiny and start building their own lives.
Day after day passed, Mrs. Lia lived without laughing and talking with Resi which created a noisy atmosphere at home. Mrs. Lia took a photo of Resi which was displayed in a frame from the collection cupboard, she couldn't stop looking at Resi's cute face when she was little, remembering that Resi used to be a crybaby and cry easily. Satisfied looking at childhood photos, until Mrs. Lia fell asleep sitting on the living room sofa while hugging Resi's childhood photo frame. Mr. Beni, who had just returned from a celebration, saw Mrs. Lia sleeping soundly on the sofa, so he picked up his wife and carried her to the bedroom. Mr. Beni is well-built and strong even though he is old because he regularly exercises, the proof is that he is still strong enough to carry his body Miss Lia. After that, Mr. Beni headed to his office, completing office work that was still a little piled up. Just like his son, instead of delaying time, he prefers to carry out and solve things or problems early rather than late. Even though on weekends he is still busy taking care of office work which sometimes remains unfinished, he does not forget to make time for his wife. Truly a husband and father who loves and cares for his wife and children, so that he becomes the best idol for his only son. Resi's attitude or behavior also decreased from his father's attitude or behavior.
