Bridal Tears And Chameleon Family
Chapter 12 The Capital
Afternoon in the housing where Rina lives is a typical afternoon that is often found in soap operas from the 90s to 2000s. The atmosphere of the traffic remains controlled, there is no sound of vehicle horns, young people running around the housing to maintain fitness, and, children play with a deafening voice and are occasionally seen passing food vendors offering their wares. The path of the second year Rina occupied this house, no mean events were horrendous around happening. Even the peak event of seven dozen runs without a single stir happening. For many people who live in urban areas, maybe they will be willing to scramble for empty lots in this housing. The hustle and bustle of the office and the streets they go through every day must be balanced with a quiet home situation like this. To hell with the familiarity between neighbors, as long as it can still be resolved with a polite smile then it is already considered as familiarity between neighbors.
Rina's face wrinkled as she exited the house towards the water hose. He was not focused, still thinking with Helnina's message that yesterday he read from Toni's laptop. Slowly Rina stalled the hose so as not to interlock and then prepared to water the plants. While watering the plants, Rina's mind focused on Helnina's message. A message that has a revised subject is unlikely to have so many typos and capital letter placements that it should not. Rina who used to be a freelancer for Mr. Barkah used to check the project documents was very disturbed. Lina felt something was wrong. Not to mention Toni's clothes were so neat at the meeting yesterday. It felt like he went back to Toni's study and checked back on Helnina's message.
Lina looked long at the bride's tear plant that had started to shady and irregular. It is not pleasing to the eye because the spines and leaves are uneven. On the side near the pole canopy conditions tendrils and leaves are very dense while on the opposite side close to the wall is not much covered with tendrils and leaves. Rina finished her activities watering the plants and then went inside the house to pick up the crop scissors. The chameleon family noticed the already invisible Rina. Watchfully they came out of the pile of tendrils and leaves under the roof of the canopy to look for the remaining water from the flush.
Carefully, Rina chose a vine that could be cut so that the shape of the plant becomes more pleasing to the outside. The result of the piece of Rina put it under, making the ground slowly turn green and pink. Rina continued cutting the tendril and finally saw a family of chameleons emerge from the top of the tendril. Three chameleons are close to each other with one chameleon smaller than the other two. Lina smiled at the sight. The chameleon eggs that he had found had successfully hatched and grown into small chameleons. At first glance Rina thought about the gender of this little chameleon, male or female like Elijah. Lina also remembered her moment with Lisa in her engagement first. The plant that Lisa refers to as the plant that replaced her to cry this time became like a small picture of her family today. Already have momongan, a rather messy family condition and need to be addressed as soon as possible to keep looking good. Rina kept quiet while holding onto the crop scissors. It was once again thought of taking a photo of a message from Helnina and finding out what it meant. Lina would not be able to calm down if she did not know what the truth was. Relax, Lina arranged her breathing to steady herself before taking the best course of action for her and her family.

Rina who rushed over while carrying the sofa shifted the doormat in front of the door leaving her initial position. Rina remained silent. He saw a silvery object emerge from the doormat protection. Lina took the key hidden there and then noticed the same brand of key as the door house. Rina opens the door to Toni's office and turns on Toni's laptop. Password request appears from laptop. Rina was speechless, trying to remember what used to be Toni's keywords. Steadily Rina typed it and succeeded. The Internet is connected and Rina starts opening Toni's emails. Still saved an email from Helnina and soon Rina took a picture of the contents of the message. Rina dropped out of the browser after deleting her search history. Lina looked around, still in the previous position then Rina came out and locked Toni's work room as if nothing had happened.

Rina sat at her desk, waiting for the photo she had taken to be sent on her laptop. The photo was sent and Rina started to notice it with a fellow. Rina began to retype the contents of the message from Helnina to make her check more freely. The mistake after mistake Helnina made was also imitated by Rina. Imitating such a wrong type of thing actually made Rina upset. He is paid to make mistakes, not to repeat them. This was forced to do because Rina only had photos. Lina copied the results of her work and then tried to correct the mistake. The message obtained by Rina this time did not show any strange. Lina fell silent, thinking what should be done with these mistakes. Rina looked back at the results of her first copy. Rina thought of one possible way she could then collect the misplaced capital letters in each word and each line. The longer, the more Lina gawked in disbelief. The capital letter that was successfully compiled by Rina turned out to contain Helnina and Toni's invitation to meet at a hotel.
