The Sign of Love

The Sign of Love
Longs


Junda sat quietly in his great chair in the room, which had no one else but himself and Ane. It's been two days since Ane returned to work, after she took a leave of absence, to take care of Alex's nephew from Junda. The man did allow Ane to take care of his nephew, because he really liked Alex and also loved the Dion family.


 


He has little hope that Ane will stick with Dion when he is on leave and not return to his office. Considering the man has been widowed long enough. Had it happened Junda liked it and he sure would have given Dion a good position for him, if Ane wanted to work in Dion's company.


 


When she finds out that Ane is back in her office, Junda calls her to find her information about Relina's whereabouts. He now looks at Ane with a sharp eye, unblinking looking at the girl, whether she will behave like Danu, by hiding Reina's whereabouts or she will be honest with him.


 


“So you decided to go back to work here?” junda said starting the conversation. She is not close to this woman because her work is not directly related to her, but she interrogates Ane for her heart, fights for Relina, until she loses her curiosity.


 


For several days he took care of his own needs without an assistant, until he was overwhelmed. After that he was determined to bring Relina along as soon as possible. He tried to persuade the girl, but to no avail, and he grew frustrated when Relina's phone was completely out of touch.


 


“Meanour?” ask Ane wonder.


 


“I think you accepted Dion's offer. He has a good offer, but you're back here, why?”


 


Ane thought earlier, that she had not asked Junda for permission as her boss. There was a sense of worry that he would get treated like Relina, fired in a disrespectful manner.


 


“Sorry Sir, earlier ... because I want to try to start a career from below.”


 


“What's wrong with getting a good position, if anyone gives you a chance? Isn't that an opportunity? Not everyone can get it, right?”


 


“Do you not get angry if I receive an offer from Mr Dion?”


 


“Why be angry? He is my brother, if you work with him he will be more happy because he can often meet you!”


 


Hearing Junda's words, Ane was stunned as she scrunched her forehead, then thinned her lips into a straight line. He was thinking was it true that Junda said, that Dion would rather cooperate with him?


 


On the other hand, Ane suspects that she will only be used, to be the nanny of her son Alex. The more Ane thinks, the more she feels that it doesn't matter if she's used to being Alex's nanny, as long as she stays paid and can keep a career there, why not?


 


‘’Ah ... everything will be fine, right?’


 


“Good sir, I will think about it again.”


 


“You know where Relina is?” ask Junda after Ane finishes talking.


 


‘Nah, Relina ... Oh so all this because of him? Relief ... Look, Mr Junda is looking for you!’


 


“He works in Jakarta Pak.”


 


Junda finally told Ane what he had been trying to find Relina lately, he also said that he could not contact her mobile number, while Ane also does not have her new number because Relina does intend to avoid everything.


 


‘Now I just know why Relina does not like this man it turns out like this person is happy to find because of the inner’ Ane.


 


Ane knows everything that went through between Junda and Relina before her phone died. Relina told her many times, but Ane did not know what caused her to now pay more attention to Relina and look for her.


 


“Sorry, Mr. .. during these few days I also could not contact Relina, the last time she said, she wanted to go home to her hometown.”


 


“What? go back to the village, where? You're one village, right?” Junda pokes Ane with all her curiosity.


 


Ane answered as if about her hometown and Relina. He figured that Junda wouldn't look for him until he got there. There are still many other women who are prettier and sexier than Relina and can be owned by men like Junda.


 


‘Atau, don't-don't ... Oh my God .. that birthmark ... Could it be that Mr Junda knows?’


 


 


Or maybe he will see the extent of the truth of the word, ‘when the soul mate will not go where’ as most people often say.


 


Junda did not understand that it turned out that Relina had a hometown far enough away, so in doubt. He thought while leaning his body and shaking his head.


 


‘Do I have to follow him there?’ batin Junda while rubbing his face with his palm.


 


“Well go back to your room and think again about Dion's offer, baby if you miss it, he can put you in a better position.”


 


Ane nodded respectfully before leaving and she tried to contact Renita, to ask for Relina's new mobile number, as well as call her mother.


 


Junda began to organize his strategy and plan to find Relina to his hometown. He is grateful that Ane would give him an explanation, unlike his uncle Danu, who did not give Relina an address, as well as other information that Relina would run a coffee shop business as well.


 


*****


 


Relina was relaxing in her new coffee shop. The place was laid out with simple yet interesting ornaments. He cooperated with two of his men, who were chosen by his aunt very well.


 


Relina deliberately painted the shop in orange so that it would show the attention of people passing by, as well as make a banner, showing the name of the coffee shop and with a very striking writing.


 


Already some people become customers in the morning and evening in their stores. It's just not so crowded, they are more unemployed because they are not too busy serving buyers. Inj is a business trip that will definitely be experienced by everyone who starts his new venture.


 


While waiting for customers to arrive, Relina looked through the contents of the phone and opened her gallery. He has a new number and of course no one has contacted him except his mother, Royan or his father. He has not sent any news to his Uncle, because he is worried that Junda will look for him and Danu will give him his new mobile number.


 


He accidentally saw a picture of himself in his photo gallery. It was a photo when he took the time to take a photo in the gala dinner with Junda. She had a very rare experience, where she wore elegant and glamorous designs, expensive jewelry, was in the midst of important people and was in a very luxurious room.


 


He left the jewelry to his mother, when he was about to leave for Martapura. As soon as Renita saw the jewelry, the woman said, and her mother's words were always ringing in her ears.


 


“Reli .. why do you keep the jewelry, even though you reject the person? This is something inappropriate.”


 


“I took it because he said he wanted to throw it away. Honey, right, Mom?”


 


“If you do reject him, you should leave it with what he will do, want to throw it away or not it is up to him, unless you accept his feelings, then you deserve to keep his jewelry.”


 


“What feeling does Mom mean? She has no feelings for me, she even pisses me off every day.”


 


“Could be, she's a person who doesn't know how to express feelings and doesn't know how to love someone. You think he always forced his will when in fact he was afraid of losing you. Why did he give you this jewelry? Maybe she wants you to wear it!”


 


When he closed his phone, his heart suddenly felt pain. This feeling was more powerful than before when he suddenly remembered Junda. His heart was hot and tight, rising to his chest, head, and hands and feet and limping from the pain that gradually spread throughout his joints. It feels painful every time you imagine Junda's face. He feels very guilty. Even if the man hurt her, she shouldn't have done so.


 


Is this miss? (Othor who misses)


 


Longing like a tree in a vast vacuum, he could grow but there was nothing around him other than emptiness and silence. Missing is like a cry in the middle of the night from someone who can only say ‘I need you’


 


Missing is like a traveler who walks and returns only to return because all he has in his memory is home. The miss is like a withered and fallen foliage touching the ground then saying, ‘I am tired’


 


While in the other hemisphere, there is someone who is sticking a mobile phone in the ear, while preparing a car and inserting a large bag into it.
