Shanum Hanania
Chapter 14

Shanum ate his food in silence. He glanced at his masters who seemed to be talking casually while finishing their meals. But he did not have the courage to enter into the conversation of his employer. Because, he was allowed to eat in one dining table the same has made Shanum feel bad, because he really understands where the position is

"Sir Shan, where is his real brother from?" selfi asked at the beginning of the conversation when he saw Shanum was silent, "Sister Shan..." Selfi called out to Shanum again when he saw that there was no reaction from Shanum

"Ah yes, sorry. You're asking me something?" ask Shanum

"I asked where Brother Shan came from"

"Oh, I'm from Bogor, West Java"

"Wow, then why do you choose to work in Jakarta, is not it also in Bogor to open many job vacancies?" tanya Selfi looked enthusiastic

"I just want to get some experience" Shanum said

"Don't you still have a family?"

"Selfi.." Arga recalled when he heard his sister's question that sounded a little presumptuous

"Ah sorry I was too presumptuous, Brother Shan does not need to answer" said Selfi was not happy when he realized his question was too presumptuous

"It's okay" Shanum said

"Mmm Hann, your salary for this month has been transferred to your account. You can check later" said Arga

"Thank you Mommy"

Dinner is over. Everyone has returned to their rooms. Shanum was washing the dishes for their dinner. When he finished, he immediately returned to his room.

"Hello Assalamu'alaikum Buk"

"Wa'alaikum Salam nak"

"Mmm, I transferred the money to Mom's account, did you enter Buk?" ask Shanum

"It's kid, but it's big, where did you get it, son?"

"Mom take it easy, I've got a job now, I'm staying with the money for Dimas and Kiyara's school"

"But... But you're working right, son?" buk Siti said softly, she was afraid to hurt Shanum's feelings

Shanum chuckled at his mother's question, "Mother take it easy. Now Brother works as a housekeeper at the friend's house. The money is halal Buk" Shanum said convincingly

"Thank God then. You must remember to always take care of yourself, son"

"Yes Buk"

"Yes, then I'll hang up the phone. I'll cook dinner first. Assalamu'alaikum"

"Wa'alaikum Salam"

After the call was interrupted, Shanum put his phone back on the bed. There was some relief in his chest after hearing his mother had already received the money to pay for his sister's school. Although in his heart a little asked where Arga got his account number. But when he remembered that Arga must have taken his application file from the company where he worked yesterday, now a few questions in Shanum's mind found answers

"But why Mr. Rapi is so creepy, while his son is too annoying" the monologue Shanum remembered the difference in Attitude between Mr. Rapi and Arga "If only I could live like them, being in the same house as a big family, and living the day beautifully like a selfi. What I'm talking about, what should I be grateful for" Shanum tapped his head to dispel the bad thoughts
