Awaited Call

"This kid hasn't even gotten out of bed. Hey, wake up!"

Byur!

The small and comfortable bed was instantly wet, as if it had been hit by local rain that had fallen from above due to the splash of water from his mother's bucket who was irritated to see that the child had not woken up from his sleep and was still engrossed in the dreamland full of lies.

Javas, the old bachelor who had not yet been called to work, jumped out of bed with a wet face and clothes, his mother glaring at him with one hand on her hip and the other holding an empty bucket.

"Shit! Huh? Oh, Mom...mmm"Javas said as he rubbed his drenched face and stared intently at his mother who didn't flinch at constant glare.

"Javas, you're an adult, instead of getting smarter, you're getting even more confused, God, why do I have a child like this!"

His mother continued to speak as if spitting out the contents of her head and any suppressed feelings, while pointing at her only son, who now only looked at his mother with a sad face, unable to accept it but also unable to deny it.

"Yeah, yeah I know, you won't need to explain myself when I'm old. Besides, I'm not working because I don't want to, but because no one has accepted my CV "Javas got up from his seat and walked towards the door.

"Where are you going, What are you up to?!" His mother quickly drew his clothes, forbidding him to leave in front of him. "I'm curious, where did you get the pendant necklace with the diamond? I've been asking since yesterday, but you have yet to respond!" Her mother paused for a moment, her eyes suspiciously glaring. "You didn't steal something, right ?"

"Of course not! Do you think I'm that kind of person?" Javas snatched his mother's hand, ruffled her hair, and looked back with annoyance "Mom accused me of stealing?! Please return the necklace if you don't want it. If I sell it can be used as business capital."

"Ouch!"

Javas winced in pain as one slap landed on his shoulder, remembering the pain he felt when his mother's hand hit him with all his strength. "You must respond truthfully!" his mother inquired again.

"Ah That is all! Don't worry, I got the pendant in a good way!"

Don't call him a rebellious child who is good at lying; he's not lying, he's just covering up the truth that his mother will never believe, he can't claim that the locket he won was a prize for winning the competition.

What kind of competition, after all, merits a diamond pendant as a prize?

As a result, he is too lazy to explain something that is difficult to explain, it would be better if he just gave a grid, telling the important thing, if the pendant I got was in good.

Is it acceptable to kiss women as a result of winning competitions and receiving prizes? My mother will undoubtedly strike me.

"Where are you going?" his mother inquired once more as she noticed Javas walking.

"I'm hungry; is breakfast ready?" Javas grinned as he scratched his itchy scalp.

"Take a shower first, this child It's filthy to wake up and eat, only to discover that your drool is still stuck "replied the mother, disgustedly looking at the corner of her child's lips.

"Oh yeah, chatty!"

"Wait, what did you say?" Javas grinned stupidly once more, making his mother even more irritated to see him.

Javas didn't move to take a shower because the two of them were still staring at each other until the sound of an incoming phone call from a cell phone ringing broke the silence.

Javas answered the nameless call with a frown full of questions. "Hello..."

"Good morning, It's Health Food Company and I'd like to speak with Mr. Javas."

When he heard a woman's friendly greeting, his brow furrowed in confusion. "Good morning, my name is Javas, what's the matter ?"

"Mr. Javas my manager has read the CV you sent to our company, he is interested and wants to meet with you tomorrow for a job interview, will you be able to attend?"

Wow.... Even though he doesn't know if it's true that he sent a job application letter to this company due to the large number of CV sent, he's relieved that, finally, one of the many applications he submitted worked.

Javas enthusiastically nodded without thinking, causing his mother, who was standing next to him, to look perplexed.

"Yes, I can!" exclaimed Javas excitedly.

"Okay, then, tomorrow at ten o'clock, we'll wait for his arrival and You are immediately meet with the manager, thank you."

"Thank you so much!"

Pip!

When the connection was severed, Javas' smile bloomed like a flower. He immediately hugged his mother tightly and thanked her in his heart.

"Why do you hang up the phone immediately happy?" asked the mother, her face puzzled in her child's tight embrace, her brow furrowed at her child's smile.

"I was invited to an interview for a position with the company!"

"What! Are you serious?!"

Javas nodded and hugged his mother even tighter. "That's fantastic... When do you plan to attend the interview?"

"Tomorrow, I meet the manager of company."

"Thank God, I'm relieved to hear that. Tomorrow, you must get up early, dress neatly, and don't be late!" Javas nodded in response to the mother's response.

His mother released him from the hug and smiled at her son. "Come on, shower, and then have breakfast."

Mother walked out after she finished advising Javas, living together is difficult, and raising a child alone after her husband's departure is difficult, Javas is like a hope that she always prays for to be given health, a lot of age, and sustenance, now slowly God began to grant her prayers, her hopes began to be fulfilled through her son, only one wish, that he could see Javas marry and live happily with the woman he loves.

"I still don't understand why Laras has to be Pak Rafan's secretary ? she's still new, how come her can get a secretary position right away, that's not fair!"

Celine expresses her dissatisfaction with several employees on the sidelines of work. Seeing Laras pass in front of her with a happy smile standing next to her boss makes Celine feel like she's on fire with jealousy, she doesn't like to see the injustice she feels when she sees Laras.

"I'm also perplexed as to how Mr. Reno and Mr. Rafan appointed her as secretary."

"That's really simple, stay quiet like a snake, maybe She's teasing Mr. Rafan and Mr. Reno this time," Celine snarled.

"Ssst... There's someone there, shut up."

When Rafan and Laras passed their table, the atmosphere became quiet again. Celine could only remain silent while staring cynically at Laras, as if he was skinning the woman with her gaze.
