6. News From Mama

Khalid was still sitting on his chair, trying to open the email from his cell phone. He deliberately didn't bring his laptop to avoid Wildan suspicion about him. Khalid is truly enjoying life as a human being along with ordinary people. He did not show anyone who he really was.

"Sir not to the office again today?"

Message from Defandra. Khalid shook his head. Even though he knew Defandra couldn't see him, he still typed in an answer while shaking his head.

"Not. You handle everything first. I've enjoyed my life here. Everyone was really nice. He really doesn't bother me explaining who I really am. "

Defandra sighs. He was saddened by the fate of himself being a single rotten single because he was too obedient to Khalid. A stubborn and arbitrary boss.

"But the big lady went to the office earlier, sir."

"What is wrong?"

"Madame looking for sir. He said the old master was getting worse. Ask to get a daughter-in-law immediately. "

Khalid chuckled irritably. He knows that his mother is just looking for an excuse so that he will accept the arranged marriage his mother has arranged with a girl who knows no one.

"What nonsense, Mama. Are you sure if I get married, Papa will get better soon? '

"I don't know, sir. Anyway, I'm tired of explaining to the madam, who always asks and looks for information. "

"Just watch out if you leak my secret. Tell Mama that I already have a target girl. A good girl who will make Mama proud and happy. "

Defandra nods. Whether it's true or not, Khalid's sentence is true, he still hopes that his boss will really become a normal human being willing to work in his office.

"You can talk to the big madam yourself, sir. Don't tell me to lie. "

"Who told you to lie. I really found a good girl. "

"Alright alright, I believe Master will definitely find a good girl. You are a mature man who is handsome and well-established. It's easy to find a girl according to your criteria. "

"Hey, now my appearance and looks no longer show an established man. You forgot what I was wearing? Motor matic. That's just really old. Could it be that you deliberately bought me a battered motorcycle so that I wouldn't sell? "

"It's hard to talk to rich people. "

"You asked me to buy a good one, you said, you made the master fight over a girl, it was my turn to buy the one who needed it, instead you accused me of wanting to make you not sell well."

"Never mind. I will still be here to be who I am today. I will check how that girl views me if I become a poor boy. "

Defandra only read Khalid's message. He smiled to himself. His hand wanted to type the answer sentence, but had not yet had time to touch the keyboard, a face appeared in front of him.

"So your job is just to play with your cell phone and smile to yourself, Dra? No wonder you didn't find Khalid quickly. Hurry up and you go out and tell Khalid that he has to come home soon because Mama has found a good girl who will be his wife. " Defandra gasped. He had no idea that Nancy the Big Mistress had entered the room since earlier and was observing her activities. Defandra immediately stood up and lowered his body to salute his master.

"Luckily it's just a message." Murmured Defandra.

"What does it mean?'

"No. . . no, madam. "

"So you mind if I tell you to convey my message to my son?"

"Mom. . . it's not that, Madame. "

"Now get out! Find my son until you can. Today too he must come to the main house and meet me and his papa. "

"Yes, Madame." Defandra is still standing where he was, making Nancy even more angry. She immediately stepped closer and then pulled Defanfra's hand.

"Hurry up and go now! I can't wait to see you who stand like a statue. "

"Is it okay if my mistress stays?"

"Who am I that you worry about me? Have you forgotten who I am? "

"Mom. . . I don't mean that, madam. I'm just afraid to say it's rude. That is all."

"Go!" Nancy weakened. She didn't want to prolong the problem. Dizziness started attacking her.

"Yes, Madame." Defandra immediately left Nancy who was still trying to defend her body.

Arriving at the car park, Defandra immediately entered. He messaged Khalid to meet him at their secret place.

Khalid immediately left the room. He wanted so badly to avoid Defandra if only he hadn't heard that Nancy the Mama was looking for him and asked him to meet him at the main house.

It was still morning, but the rented house was very quiet. Wildan has been selling since eight o'clock.

"If only I could avoid it." Khalid muttered as he got on his motorbike and started immediately. He moved his matic slowly, especially when he passed Dzi's house. The new girl who made him curious.

"Want to go to work, Brother?" Asked Dzi who was sweeping the courtyard of the mosque. Khalid stopped his motorbike then took off his helmet and smiled

"I'm unemployed now, sister."

Dzi was stunned to hear Khalid's answer. She regretted having asked about work to a man she just met. Too sorry about his sentence, Dzi looked down. Khalid who saw the Dzi only smiled

"You do not work or study?"

Khalid changes the conversation to get rid of the guilt of the girl. was successful. Dzi's face, which was initially gloomy, has now become happy.

"I went to college in the afternoon. God willing, leave immediately when sweeping it over. "

"Where do you go to college?"

"At UNOC."

"Wow, that's great. UNOC is the University of Smart People. Rarely can they enter there, you know. If not a smart person who can enter UNOC "

"Ah, just normal, Brother. It just so happened that when the exam could work. Finally passed the selection. "

"You're always humble."

"Not being humble. But just lucky "

"Well then, I will go first, assalamualaikum "

"Waalaikum salam warahmatullahi wabarokatuh"

Khalid smiled then continued his journey to his secret place, while the Dzi who had been sweeping and cleaning the courtyard of the mosque immediately continued his work.

"don't you work? Why is it still busy at this hour in the mosque? "A male voice surprised Dzi who was putting trash in the trash can.

"Eh, Mr Salim. Already here, sir? "

"Yes. Incidentally, Arka helped me. My son who has just returned from Cairo. Arka picks up trash at the housing complex and I pick it up here. We'll meet in the car later "

"Arka came home, Mr Salim? Is the lecture finished? "

"Not yet,. He just missed the family. "

"O, I think it's finished."

"Just waiting for the final exam, he said. Instead of being there unemployed, he chose to go home to help you pick up trash from the housing complex to complex. "

"That's great, Arka. College student but want to pick up trash. "

Salim laughed at Dzi's words.

"You are also a student but also want to become a mosque leader."

"If this is a different story, Mr Salim. I'm only helping Mr Soleh. "

"Yes, the same, Dzi. The point is that you both want to sacrifice to become a force where many people don't want to do it and even tend to avoid it. "

"They avoid it because they don't know what it feels like to be devoted to the environment. If they found out, they would definitely scramble to do it. "

Salim smiled at Dzi's opinion. The girl in front of him was different from the other girls. He has a simple appearance and is gentle with anyone.

"Whatever it is, I just salute you, Dzi. So far, You have been struggling alone to support your life. It's rare for a girl like you. "

"Don't praise him too much." Reject Dzi with a blushing face.

"Ha ha ha, good girls never like it when people praise them," a man stopped the conversation between Salim and Dzi. They turned their heads, towards the source of the sound.
