BLESSINGS OF LOVE
The Beginning of New Day Jealousy

"Bro, tonight we're having dinner together, I'd like to celebrate Aliong's cell-free. You should come, dad. Don't refuse, "take Wildan to Jimmy.

"Can anyone join?" ask Jimmy.

"Biasalah, me, Danu, you, then Aliong and his sister Asiaw" replied Wildan.

"Oh, where's the resto?" ask Jimmy again.

"Later afternoon I was told, now I still need to. All of us discuss the work at the restaurant later," said Wildan while closing the conversation with Jimmy.

After hanging up the phone from Wildan, Jimmy seemed to think of something.

"Aliong was a civil engineering scholar, maybe not if invited to join this company?" thought Jimmy.

There was a desire for Jimmy to invite Aliong to join, but on the other hand there was also a sense of rejection.

At least Aliong's ex-convict, the case used to eat project money.

Jimmy's office deals with the project, isn't it a very easy thing for Aliong to get back caught up in the project's affairs.

But Jimmy put his thoughts aside, there was still a lot of work to be done.

Soraya is on campus, as usual must be accompanied by two friends, Oti and Otang.

"Have not cried anymore, sure there must be a way to charge the children. You are still working here, your career is also still wide open on this campus," Oti gave encouragement to Soraya.

While sweeping her tears with the tissue paper, Soraya listened to the spirit and support of her two best friends.

"Calm down, we will always accompany you. That's why you now have to be eager to become rector. Yesterday it was ogah-ogahan," Otang said with his gentle style.

"Okay, hopefully the opportunity for the competency exam to be rector is still open for me" Soraya said with hope.

"Eehhh, there's the widow's mistress. Turns out the lady widow has already entered teaching?" who else if not Ira who always felt rivaled by Soraya.

"So mouth, don't talk recklessly" Oti scolds Ira.

"Well, it's true, Soraya's mother is now a widow. When a husband is dead, he cannot be called a widow" Anes Ira's henchmen spoke.

"To my knowledge a widowed status lecturer can still teach at this campus. There was no law against widows not being able to become teachers" Soraya began to get upset and replied to the two men's words.

"Oh, yes, widows can teach. Just a widow, her husband died with his affair," Ira again insinuated Soraya.

"Hmmm, it is. My husband is handsome, so he has a lot of infidelity. About who died, it was his destiny" Soraya said again.

"It's just information, Soraya's husband died also many of his inheritance, really. So she is not a poor widow of course," Otang also adds to the atmosphere of being hot.

"Right, rather than anyone being a lecturer. Uh, her husband is unemployed, if one day her husband dies there is only a debt not an inheritance," Oti strongly insinuated to Ira.

"Let's unemployed, but my husband's son is a rich man, at least there is still a legacy from his parents," Ira began to be provoked by his emotions.

"Alamak, let my guy say this is a badcong guy. But I work dong. Price is for men, although my work salary is small but I have my own sweat money," Otang also began to release his sharp satire speech.

"Are you fighting a storm with me? huh!!!" shout Ira.

"Sorry, it's not the same level of noise. Who was Soraya first? If that mouth was polite, we would also be polite," Oti came forward to Ira while shaking his waist.

"Here, patience, Ira. Come on, let's just get out, don't care about their business, "Anes immediately pulled Ira's hand out of the room.

After Ira and Anes left the room, the three friends who called themselves Triple O laughed together.

"Oh my God, forgive me. I never want to be arrogant and hurt others" Soraya said.

"The habit of two people, ninyinyir always. Not just us, but almost everyone always does," Oti inflamed if he remembered Ira's behavior.

"Hahahah, bucket. That's why I'm the worst with those two guys. I want to occasionally pull the lips of both," said Otang who still looks furious.

"You too Otang, said I have a lot of inheritance. Already know I was crying about the cost of the children, hahahaha," Soraya laughed amusedly.

"Let's let it heat his heart. Let him fire a beard, people never want to lose and never mess up," said Otang with an angry tone irritated.

"That's it, let it go. Later will also one day be hit by his own stone," said Soraya trying to muffle the frustration of his two friends.

Elsewhere, Fuad is contacting one of his old friends who can repair damaged electronics.

"Mr, can you fix a phone that has fallen into the river?" ask Fuad.

"God willing, can there be such a thing?" asked his friend who was called Buluk, I don't know what reason the person was called that.

"There are bro, this is just a long submerged, about two or three days submerged," Fuad said.

"There are two months submerged also I can reason, only a lot of data is lost" said Buluk.

"I just need the data bro, not the phone" Fuad said.

"Hmmm, I'll see the stuff first. I am reasonable and try to get out the data," said Buluk again.

"Tomorrow I bring two cell phones and a laptop" Fuad said, half laughing.

"God, the PR is a lot, boss. Yes, ready, just bring it here tomorrow".

"Okay, I'll be at your place tomorrow".

"Eh, Boss Fuad, it's like working on a nice pizza".

"Hahahah, you Buluk. Okay, I'll bring you pizza tomorrow".

"Well, that's dong. Stomach full smooth work boss".

Fuad laughed at Buluk's words from across the phone.

Late in the afternoon when Fuad was sleeping on the sofa in his living room, there was a scream from the front of the house.

Apparently people sent packages, and it turned out to be a package shipment from Soraya who came.

This morning Soraya chose super express delivery, quite expensive shipping cost. But for the sake of the desire to immediately solve the problem, then any price will definitely be paid.

Fuad immediately took a bath all ablution, and then performed the Ashar prayer. In his prayer after prayer, always his wife's name called begged forgiveness for all sins during his life.

After neatly dressed in a polo shirt and blue jeans, he drove his car to a pizza restaurant.

One box of pizza jumbo size is already in his hands, then with his car drove to Buluk's house.

"Hahahah, nah.mantap. Here's where the goods are," Buluk said when receiving a box of pizza from Fuad.

"I try well, because submerged goods are easy. Only for sure I will try to open all the data in these three electronic items," Buluk said again while shaking his head to look at the three devices.

"Sip, I'll wait. But I'm gonna be out of town for a while. So later if you have any info, you just send it to my email. Here's his email address" Fuad said, writing down his personal email address.

"And this is money to buy coffee," Fuad added while pinning several pieces of paper money into the pocket of Buluk's shirt.

"Each commander, I'll do it immediately!".

While on the same day at noon today, precisely in the city of Jakarta at Margo's Tower, there was a middle-aged husband and wife talking with her daughter.

The middle-aged couple was Sumargo Handoyo with his wife Ivanna.

In the nineteen-eighties, a man named Sumargo Handoyo married a foreign woman of American origin.

They are college friends, because Sumargo Handoyo is a graduate of one of the famous Universities in Sam's uncle's country.

The American woman finally joined Sumargo Handoyo to Indonesia and lived in Semarang City.

They have a son named Louis Orlando Handoyo.

Sumargo Handoyo is a smart and hardworking man, he set up a PVC pipe factory for building purposes and also pioneered the manufacture of aluminum frame.

At the age of ten years of marriage, his wife died because of being shot by robbers who would ransack their home.

Louis Orlando Handoyo ended up living with his parents Sumargo Handoyo, while Sumargo Handoyo himself went to Jakarta to open a new business there, while relieving his grief.

There was a call from one of his old friends to open property business opportunities in Jakarta, establishing apartments and high-rise buildings for offices.

Sumargo Handoyo was interested and began to pursue the business, while the factory business in Semarang also continued to run because he already had reliable and trustworthy employees.

One time he was invited to join to establish a private university, then he was also interested and invested a considerable capital there.

When the inauguration of the private university building, he met a woman who was one of the foreign lecturers at the university.

The woman will teach at the faculty of English literature, when invited to meet Sumargo Handoyo felt shocked because the name of the woman was like a Russian.

"I am Ivanna Romanov, originally from Russia, but I grew up in the UK because my father was an attache of the Russian embassy there. Then I married an Indonesian who came from Denpasar Bali. Only we were forced to separate because my ex-husband was a drunkard" Ivanna said when she met Sumargo Handoyo.

Sumargo Handoyo also told her life story, and eventually the two became close ever since.

Ivanna had a daughter named Komang Ayu Stevanya or called Stevie.

Sumargo Handoyo eventually married Ivanna Romanov and lived in Jakarta.

From his marriage they were blessed with a child named Kristal Yelena Handoyo.

Now Ivanna Handoyo, once her calling has become the chairman of the Foundation which houses several social institutions and one of them is the University where Soraya teaches.

Because they had children who loved to cook, Ivanna finally planned to establish a College of Tourism and Hospitality.

Including later there will be foreign language faculty also in the place.

"So mama's plan, the literature faculty will now be moved to a new place. His name will be changed to the faculty of English and later there will be several additional foreign language faculties such as French, German and of course Russian," Ivanna told her husband and son.

"So the Department of Tourism and Hospitality, also a foreign language in a new place later?" ask Stevie.

"Yes, like that, and my mother has received her permission from the Minister of Education directly," replied Ms. Ivanna proudly.

"It's him, who has a ministerial friend who's different," Stevie teases his mother.

Ivanna's mother was smiling to hear her child teasing her.

"We have not yet obtained the appropriate construction experts and architects to erect the High School building. Since yesterday some proposals entered but not pleased in the heart and also engineers who present such a pretentious person," said Sumargo Handoyo her husband.

"Surely Stevie had a friend, well, her brother-in-law was an architect. And it's close to Kristy" Stevie said.

"Kristy, have a close friend?" Ivanna's mother was shocked.

"Yes, even Stevie knows from her sister-in-law. His brother died yesterday. That's the loh, which sank in the river in Palembang" Stevie continued.

"Oh my God, what a pity. It must be that his wife and son are very sad, "Ivanna's mother seems to be sympathetic.

"His wife if not wrong is one of the lecturers at the mama campus. He's an English teacher, his name's forgotten. Anybody who just got back got an S3 scholarship in New Zealand," Stevie replied.

"Oh, yes, mama knows. If it's not wrong, it's Soraya. Hmmm, he's a very smart lecturer, mama was impressed by his teaching method," apparently Soraya has been famous to the level of higher-ups.

"Where's your husband, Stevie? try calling here!" the Order of Mr. Sumargo Handoyo.

"Andre, baby, papa called you" Stevie told her husband.

"Okay, I'll be there for a minute. This is something I have to sign first, I will go to papa's place soon" said Andre Stevie's husband.

Stevie is married to one of her father's employees. They used to date secretly, because Andre was afraid of being fired if he was caught loving a subsidiary company owner.

But it turns out that secretly Mr. Sumargo Handoyo has put his heart to Andre's performance, even has a plan to match with Stevie.

It was the way, when the two were reunited, they finally admitted that they had been dating for a long time.

So it did not take long, Andre and Stevie soon married by Sumargo Handoyo.

And of course, his position which was originally only a manager, is now a vice president.

Stevie returns to his father's room and says Andre will be there soon because there is still a little work.

Shortly after Andre correctly followed, he entered the room while apologizing to his in-laws for not being able to attend immediately when he was just called.

"Andre, do you know the location of your land that will be used as a tourism and hospitality campus?"ask Mr. Sumargo Handoyo.

"Oh, of course you know. But until now there has been no architect who can give a qualified presentation," replied Andre.

"Look, Stevie has a friend whose sister is an architect. You find out how that guy performs? stevie said his company name was CV. Advanced Mandiri. The guy's name is Jimmy. Try to find out how the person and the company are," ordered Mr. Sumargo Handoyo.

"Why should such detail I look for architects. Isn't it just a construction company and an architect, if it's not suitable to stay we just decide the contract of work," replied Andre while feeling surprised.

"The problem is that the man is trying to get close to Kristy. Papa doesn't want to go twice".

"Your sister's love, it's been seven years since it happened. Until now he had never tried to open his heart. Just heard he was close to a man again, so papa wanted to know how that person was," Sumargo Handoyo showed a face full of regret if he remembered the incident of the man who had hurt his son.

"Oh, ready. This is another story, not just a job contract. I will immediately deploy the men to find out" said Andre, winking to his wife.

"Mama, Oom Jimmy gave us some money. Three hundred thousand each for one week" Maya tells her mother when she gets picked up after school.

"Wow, a lot. What are you guys doing that kind of money for?" Soraya was shocked to hear that.

"Said Oom Jimmy, from today onwards who gave the pocket money was Oom Jimmy. But once a week, it's three hundred thousand for a week," Mega also relayed to her mother.

"Yes, but there's a lot of money for what you hold that much money for" Soraya seemed to disagree.

"From my mother, every day our pockets are only fifteen thousand. Sometimes it's not enough, so we like not to snack eventually," Maya protests to her mother.

"Listen, you guys were delivered to school in the morning, picked up in the afternoon. If you can't pick up, sometimes pick up Oom Jimmy or take a paid taxi at home. Fifteen thousand a day is not enough. Supplies also brought from home, indeed what are you snacking again?" Soraya started to sewot.

"Sometimes want to snack on meatballs or siomay. I like to get bored if I bring provisions from the house," Mega also complains.

"How many meatballs, at most five thousand. There are still remains too, right," Soraya said.

"There are other snacks, sometimes we also want to buy hair accessories or funny stationery. There are many kinds of models today," complained Maya as well.

"Okay, you got three hundred grand. Half leave it to mama to save," Soraya swore to her two girls.

"Well, this is money from Oom Jimmy, too. Time we can't use" Maya and Mega protest.

"Listen, now papa's gone. You have to save money on expenses, because your salary will not be enough to finance all of us," Soraya began to talk.

"You got your pocket money from your uncle. Try to set the money, save some for your future. Not for the money mama later, for you guys too".

Both of them immediately fell silent, they remembered that now the conditions and situation had changed.

Their father is no longer there, they used to be able to ask for additional snacks from Mario. Now it will no longer be able to, although Oom Jimmy is good but maybe their uncle will also not be able to give forever.

"One day Oom Jimmy will get married and have children. Of course there will be other responsibilities, there will be other responsibilities that your uncle must do".

"Okay, mama's not gonna take your money from Oom Jimmy. But mama asked so, you're all grown. Tube yourself in school, do not all use wastefully".

"Particularly you, Maya. Try not to go along with other girls who are rich kids. It is not impossible to play with them, but a little glazed that we are not equal to them. So learn to be wise in getting along," Soraya advised at length the two girls.

Arriving at home the two girls whispered in their room.

"How much do you want Maya?"ask Mega.

"I don't know. I was upset again, had been the ambition to buy a contemporary bag that was five hundred thousand. But mama must be angry" Maya lamented.

"I will spend one hundred and fifty thousand tomorrow. Can in school cooperatives can be nabung. We just kumpulin Kak Maya money, right also said mama, papa already no later we fall poor," said Mega reminded his brother.

"Yes too yeah, later kayak in the movies. The three of us are starving, because your salary money is not enough," Maya also got carried away.

"Eatya mumpung Oom Jimmy is not married and can still give us money. We better keep some of it in the school cooperative. Who knows, it might help if you really have a hard time" Mega suggested again for both of them.

"Yes, tomorrow we can save half of it. Let me just not have a cool bag, the important thing is still school, can still eat. And one day can help mom," said Maya.

Then the two sisters hugged each other, while shedding tears. They did not know that her mother had been peeping and listening to the two. Now Soraya so join tears while feeling happy because both girls can think mature and wise.

By nightfall, Jimmy was still in the office finishing the pending work.

Marsela had been home since then, and some of her staff had almost all gone home with just her and two more.

"Sir Jimmy, this is my drawing and this is his mockup design" said one of the staff who was seen keeping his job but had brought his jacket.

"You're going home, right? It's tomorrow again his presentation to me" said Jimmy.

"I'm also happy, sir. My wife just called me to buy medicine for my son" said another man.

"Okay, it's seven o'clock in the evening. You guys go home first. Thank you well," Jimmy said with a smile to the two.

Soon the two staffs came home, to their respective motorcycles.

Agus, the owner of the shop next door, has started to enter the office room. He had already started to lift dirty glasses from the employee's desk while cleaning the table one by one.

"Boss, haven't come home yet?" ask Jimmy.

But Jimmy didn't say it, because he looked serious about his job.

Suddenly his phone rang, there was a chat message coming in from Wildan.

"Bro, we've got Big Beauty Resto, we've met there. I've been with Aliong and Asiaw".

That's a message from Wildan, and of course Jimmy feels weak and lazy if he has to go there. Not because the cooking was bad, but honestly he was feeling embarrassed and guilty to Kristy.

Wanting to refuse is certainly not good, because Wildan will give him a job.

Inevitably Jimmy agreed to the invitation from Wildan.

"Good, I'm ahead well, there's a promise with Boss Wildan" Jimmy said.

"Okay boss, bay de wei, how tangled is that face?" Agus looked at Jimmy strangely.

Jimmy just glanced at Agus as he said, "Hmmm, drop off the office well, the right key".

Agus just gave his two thumbs up to Jimmy.

Jimmy's car and Wildan's car turned out to come together, Aliong immediately went down when he saw Jimmy's figure.

"Bro, I'm sorry. I just got free, so I just found out Mario's calm," Aliong said, hugging Jimmy.

"Yes, it's okay Ko Aliong. Congratulations, you are free. Forgive Bang Mario if you used to have a wrong with Koko," said Jimmy.

"You are a good man, I lost him so much" said Aliong, hitting his chest with a fist sign he was sad.

"Thank you, even though Bang Mario is no more. But we're still friends, right" Jimmy told Aliong.

"Jim, you I've considered a sister too. Mario's brother is my brother too" Aliong patted Jimmy on the shoulder.

"Come, come on in. We continue inside, "take Wildan to the two.

Jimmy stepped towards the door of the restaurant, and from behind the glass there is a figure Kristy who is always friendly greeting and serving every visitor assisted by his employees.

"Welcome Mr. Wildan, amazingly, finally came too. Thank you for visiting our restaurant" Kristy said when she saw Wildan enter her dining room.

"How's Kristy doing, I brought a friend. This is Koko Jefri and this is Koko Bobby's sister, but it's usually called Koko Aliong and Koko Asiaw" Wildan introduced his two friends.

"It's nice to meet Koko Aliong and Koko Asiaw. Come on, come on in. We have prepared a special table for Mr. Wildan and his friends" Kristy said with a friendly smile.

But when he saw there was also the figure of Jimmy behind Wildan and his two friends, then Kristy threw her face and immediately drove Wildan to the table that had been provided.

Kristy started showing the menu, then explained the mainstay menu of the day.

Wildan started ordering, and Kristy took note of it, and then Aliong and Asiaw treated the same. While recording orders Aliong and Asiaw, suddenly Danu just came to follow.

Again Kristy greeted him and immediately asked what to order, and then took notes.

When it was Jimmy's turn, Kristy called Oci.

"Oci, please this is just one more thing I haven't had time to record. I need to go to the kitchen all of a sudden" Kristy told Oci.

"Sorry, Mr. Wildan, Mr. Danu and Koko-koko. I just remember having to go to the kitchen, so the last order will be the same Oci. Please wait, well" Kristy took a break from the table without looking at Jimmy.

Aliong silently watched Kristy's attitude towards Jimmy, and she grinned and seemed to understand something between the two.

Jimmy ordered the food and was recorded by Oci, and they were all asked to wait for his order to come.

"Gue suspected, I think there is a story between our single brother and the owner of this restaurant?" Aliong tried to shoot Jimmy.

And Jimmy looked surprised, then pretended to smile even though he looked very awkward.

"What story?" timpal Jimmy's.

"Yes, I feel weird too. We're all saluted one-on-one, uh, he's not. We're asked one-on-one, he's also lost. Come on, what's up?" wildan Goda.

"Here you go, come on, let's talk about work. It's been tonight, too," Jimmy kept trying to switch the conversation.

"If you like it, apply immediately. Don't make girls upset, be pouted," seduce Asiaw too.

"Yes, get married quickly. I think it fits, you used to build this restaurant, right. I think the construction is done, this guy does not also propose. So there's this angry guy, hahahaha," Danu also teases Jimmy.

Of course Jimmy couldn't say anything, he just smiled because he didn't know what to answer.

Wildan begins a conversation about a job he's about to share with Jimmy's company in part.

And he also asked Jimmy to be willing to put Aliong into his company.

But it seems that Jimmy is not concentrating on Wildan's conversation, because right now with a sharp narrowed eye is watching Kristy who is having a friendly conversation with Admiral Samsul.

Somehow his feelings suddenly boiled at the familiarity of the two.

Wildan immediately stopped talking, and all started to glance at Jimmy who had been staring at Kristy with a man in TNI uniform.

All of his friends were holding back laughter at the sight of Jimmy while raising eyebrows. Finally it was discovered that Jimmy was burning jealous fire to see Kristy and the man.
