5. Responsibility

“Grandma, I’m sorry we destroyed  grandma’s merchandise just now.  Yes, this guy who is break it, he said he wants responsibility  .” Damian gaped, pointing  towards his own face.

“How is it just me?  Aren’t you, too?”  avoid Damian

***Meyyis***

“It’s okay.  This Hari, grandma’s sustenance is being reduced.  It’s just like that.”  Pohan’s grandmother  laughed lightly at her words. The woman is big-spirited.  Although he is  currently lacking, he does not worry about the  events that happened, even though  it makes him lose hundreds of thousands of  rupiah.

“It can’t be like that, Grandma.  Damian will pay.” Damian pointed  at himself.

“Yes, Nek.  Karena he’s already destroyed one basket of fresh  Grandma oranges.”  Jihan turned to look at Damian after such a speech, meaning that the man  would strengthen his remarks.

“She’s right, Grandma.  Why well grandma trade tomorrow?” said Damian.

“He’s right, Nek.  He’ll pay for it, if Jihan pays it, Nek.”  Grandma tree laughed at Jihan’s babble.

“It’s nothing.  Biar I pay, you owe it to me,”  Damian said.  Hear said Damian, Jihan glared and Grandma Pohon laughed wider and wider revealing his toothless teeth, watching the two of them argue with each other.

“I’ve been, I have, have you guys eaten?  Grandma is already cooked,” said Grandma Pohan.

 “I’ve eaten, Jihan who hasn’t eaten yet,” said Damian.

“Baiklah then, you can also eat again.” Grandma Pohan take a bowl of rice, some equipment eat simple, the side dishes are vegetables and fried tempeh, not to forget the chili paste, typical of Indonesia which is very delicious.

“This is what grandma has, do you guys like it?”  ask Grandma Pohan.

“This is more than enough.  I feel that Jihan also only eats with chili sauce, even if the younger siblings are not full, Jihan has to endure hunger,” said Jihan. Damian swallowed his saliva very hard.  He couldn’t believe  that the girl  was suffering enough.  During this time, Damian often even  ignored food, just because he was lazy to eat. However, there are others who, even to eat, it is very difficult.

Damian turned to look at Jihan, looking at him very longly.  “Why looking at me, don’t you have to  feel sorry for me.  That look of pity that you showed, actually insulted me, as if torn my body apart.” Damian changed his gaze in  the other direction.

“Who is also the one who is sorry for  you?”  Damian Dodges.  Seeing that the two were still in a tailspin, GrandmA Pohan laughed louder again.

“I just remembered, are you the one who just wanted to buy Grandma merchandise?”   Grandma Pohan asked.

“yes, right. Why, grandma just give that raw apple?  Padahal it can  still be sold even at half the price.” Damian asked, while chewing  on his food.

“Grandma can’t bear it, it’s not worth eating.  Usually,  such unripe or rotten fruit, is purchased for fodder. If you only buy one kilograms, it is impossible  for fodder,” grandma  Pohan said.

“Thire, the  merchant next door sells kilograms, albeit at a low price.” Damian told the incident he had experienced.

“Broadcast it.  Such a fruit  , actually, if it is in depot, is also the most discarded orgiven  away.”   Pohan’s grandmother  is indeed a big-hearted  woman.  Even though he was in trouble, he still did honestly.

Batin Damian screamed, all this  time he never found someone with a  good heart.  Is it a matter of how much old grandmother who is in trouble can still be willing to give something to others?

“This is very good,” Demian said.

“Really?  it’s good then.  Spend, let’s spend it,” She said.  They eats with gusto. Damian was moved, to the point of being anxious to cry. His lifetime, only eating alone or with clients, if there is someone who wants to accompany him to eat, there is a certain purpose.  Ia just live with Adrian the assistant.

Damian let his cell phone that kept ringing in his pants pocket.  If he takes out the mobile phone that costs tens of millions of  rupiah, it is likely that Jihan will suspect that he is not as handsome as he seems.  After the food ran out, Damian gave a few bills  of one hundred thousand rupiah that were still new.   Pohan’s grandmother  didn’t want to accept it, but  Damian just left it behind.

“Wait  young man, it’s too much.” Damian did not heed the  words of the grandmother, he walked out of the house.  Jihan followed afterwards.

“Come on, I’ll take you home. It’s past  dusk.  Transportation must have been rare.  As for the taxi fare, I still have it,”  Damian persuaded.

The man wanted to take Jihan home, but Jihan refused.  “You don’t have to,  just keep your money.  We parted here only.  HI owe you, can it be considered paid off? Is it paid off?  If it is paid off with you, then we have no relationship anymore.  HI owe grandma, let me and grandma’s business.”      Jihan’s words at length, made  Damian speechless.  Damian couldn’t say any more, the woman took public  transport and left him.

After the woman left, she contacted Adrian.  Just a few seconds, Adrian had already received his call.

“Halo how, Tuan?  Apa you found something?”  asked Adrian, the assistant who always appeared formal, in an expensive suit with  climactic hair.  The designation is indeed the typical style of an assistant.

“Belum, I haven’t found that clerk you told me about. This is already ten years ago.  It is possible that he had moved, because he was not in the neighborhood.  It’s also possible that it’s gone.  I have a new assignment for you,”  Damian said.

“What task, Tuan?” Adrian listened carefully to the task he  had to carry out.

“I know a girl, try to help that girl.” Damian clearly, ordered Adrian to help Jihan, but Adrian became clueless, because for the first time, Damian was dealing with a woman.  The man is actually the most anti to the creature whose name is a woman.

 “Maksud, sir?” Because Adrian was still asking, Damian didn’t want to go into more detail on the phone.

“I’m going home tonight, I’ll tell you everything,”  Damian said.

“Where do you have to pick up, Tuan?”  Adrian asked.

“Idon’t know, I just take a taxi,”  Damian concluded, stopping his call.  Adrian gaped to hear that the boss didn’t want to be picked up.  Real of history he became Damian’s assistant, this was the first time  the man did not want to be picked up by him.  I think Damian is very spoiled.  Wishful of ordering a taxi by himself, even being in a radius of kilometers just asked Adrian to pick him up.

 Adrian chose not to care about the aftermath, but he turned on the GPS to monitor his boss.

Adrian smiled when on his cell phone, the GPS of the boss’s cell phone was already near the luxurious mansion.  “Pelayan please prepare dinner for Tuan Damian,”  Adrian ordered to the   household assistant,  because  the chef had already returned home.

“Fine, Mr. Adrian.  I’m ready for it.”  Sang, the household assistant, was immediately responsive, cooking for his employer.  Even though he is not a chef who usually cooks, but the household assistant is also no less delicious when cooking.

Damian had already arrived in front of his house.  He paid the taxi fare after the taxi driver mentioned the figures on the meter.

“Welcome home, Tuan.”  The security guard opened the door of the luxurious house.  The classic European-style luxury house, combined with the modern style, is indeed enough to amaze the eyes who have never witnessed it.  Large pillars are characteristic with a triangular roof.  The house is three-story. The  area is also enough for a large family, because it is  wider than   the football field  .  The house was indeed designed by Damian’s parents for their families and descendants to live in. However, Damian   still feels at home single.  Meanwhile, the families choose their own homes, in order to be able  to plan the company’s struggle  neatly.
