Donna looked at Sari, Ida, and Bik Abih. The three Household Assistants faced Donna. Donna decided to rest first at home until her feelings of regret that she regretted separating from Araf were gone. Donna lightly massaged her forehead. She felt dizzy again because these three household members simultaneously asked to stop working. Even though all three of them feel at home working yearly at home.
"Madam." Sari scolds Donna.
"What's your reason for wanting to stop working with me? You want a raise?" Donna looked at the three household members, "If they ask for a raise in salary, I will grant it."
"It's not about salary, Madam." Bik Abih replied, "I am old, I want to spend the rest of my life in the village."
Donna gawked at Bik Abih's words, Bik Abih observed her from top to bottom. 'Bik Abih's feeling is not old,' his heart whispered, 'Bik Abih is only 45 years old. How can you spend the rest of your life in the village, when you're still 45 years old.'
"If it was me, Madame," Sari is now speaking, "I want to marry Duda Brondong whom I met on Instagram a few months ago."
'Oh gosh!' Donna gasped again hearing this, 'How is it that Sari, who is still married, wants to be with Duda Brondong? Where does the widower know from Instagram too?'
"It's me," Ida said, "I want to open an online shop in the village, madam. Now is the era of online shops."
Donna pursed her lips. 'How did Ida open an online shop in her remote village in Gunung Kidul?' asked his heart, 'Where is there any WiFi supporting the Online Store anyway? There are no counters that sell pulses only. Ida has to take an ojek out of her village to the sub-district to buy pulses.'
"Plisss madam!" The whining of the three ARTs were very compact by putting on a hopeful face like Upin Ipin hoping for Opah.
Donna sighed, the feeling that these three household members could not stand at home because there was no Araf. Araf Tuan is kind to them, and all the ART in this house. Araf didn't hesitate to step in to wash the dishes, for example, Sari forgot to soak the dishes she used to eat in warm water.
Why are you washing dishes like that? Yes, for the sake of Donna, who is a perfectionist, everything must be sterile. Dishes used to eat must be soaked in warm water for ten minutes, then soaped, rinsed, then soaked again in warm water. So that plate becomes sterile right?
The only one who understands Donna's 'BREAKING' is Araf. Because Araf knows Donna more than 16 years.
Well, Donna's 'KNOWN' character from Raden Ayu Andini is her mother. It makes Raden Sastrodijoyo dizzy, who is low profile and a little slack. For example, when Raden Sastrodijoyo wanted to sit on the floor of his front porch, Rahmat his assistant, first wiped the floor, then on a super clean mat. Raden Sastrodijoyo became annoyed, right? He wants to stick his low profile ass on the floor that has been trampled on by the human feet of the occupants of his house, how come the floor is wiped clean and then on the mat.
Luckily, Araf is more steadfast than Raden Sastrodijoyo with Donna's attitude, which is three times the same as Raden Ayu Andini. Araf did not feel dizzy or annoyed with Donna's attitude.
Back to Donna, she can't force these three ART to keep working with her.
"Odoy!!!" Donna called out to Odoy, "Odoy!!!" She shouted again in a louder voice.
Ida, Sari, and Bik Abih scrunched up their faces, wanting to hear Donna's screams.
"Yes, madam!" Odoy said no less screaming. It wasn't long before Odoy appeared to Donna, "Odoy is ready to accept an assignment from Madam." Odoy immediately behaved like a soldier who was ready to accept an assignment from his commander.
"Get my wallet from my desk. Hurry up, Doy."
"Ready madam." Odoy hurried away, not long after returning with this super expensive Leather Wallet, placed on the table in front of Donna.
"Thanks Doy." Donna thanked him, "Doy, has Kasep picked up Nita, Dido, or Tami from their school?"
"It's been a while, madam. Now on the way come back here."
"Well, you quickly cook for the four of us Lunch."
"Cook madam?" Odoy gasps hearing this.
"What did you hear? Cook or not?"
"Yes, cook, madam."
"Yes, there Cook."
"So I cook this, madam?" Odoy scratched his head, all his life he can only cook Instant Noodles. Suddenly Donna told him to cook lunch for Donna and her three Master's children.
"Yes Odo! It's time to cook. So that my children will not starve when they arrive at this house."
Odoy pouted, then staggered to the kitchen. His brain is thinking what to cook? If Araf didn't have to think about it, he could just cook this for Donna and their three children.
Donna opened her wallet, took out some money, and distributed it to Sari, Ida, and Bik Abih.
"That's my severance pay. I'm sorry to taste, because you suddenly asked to stop working."
"Mama!" heard Donna's three children's voices, "Mama, We're home!"
"Come here, dear!" Donna said, pleased to hear the voices of her three children, "Mama's in the Living Room!" was told where He was at the moment.
It wasn't long before the three sweet children arrived. Everyone immediately took turns kissing the top of Donna's hand, then sat down on the sofa.
"Oh?" Nita was surprised to see the three household members, "Mbak Sari, Kak Ida, and Bik Abih what are you doing with Mama?"
"They asked to stop working." Donna said.
"Why so sudden? Where are you together?"
"You don't have to ask why." Donna interrupted, "When are you three going home?" asked the three ART. Still hoping for the three household members to delay returning home, so that he has time to find a replacement for them.
"Now madam!" said Sari, Ida, and Bik Abih in unison.
Donna slapped his forehead, 'Damn me!' His voice was sad to hear the answers of these three household members. The three children looked at them, as if they were saying, 'My children, while we don't have ART.'
"Mom." Nita spoke to Donna, "Look, the house doesn't have ART anymore." Glancing at the three ART.
"Then?" Donna looked at Nita, suspicious of something.
"What if Nita, Dido, and Tami live with Papa." Nita suggested that he and his two younger siblings live with Araf, "There is Uncle Ranto and Bik Asih. So we are safe being taken care of by Papa."
"Agree!!" said Dido and Tami agreed with Nita's suggestion.
Then with Nita, looking at Donna with a look like Puppies expecting something from their mother.
Donna slapped his forehead again, became excited to hear the suggestion of these three children,
"Can not!" Donna spoke while glaring at her three children in exasperation, "Mama won custody of you, so you live with Mama. Period, don't use a comma, it's over!" he said firmly.
Nita, Dido, Tami pursed their lips, looking annoyed to hear Donna's words.
Odoy then came, approached Donna.
"Madam."
"What is it?" Donna turned her eyes to Odoy, but because she hadn't wiped her glaring eyes, she looked at Odoy glaringly.
"Oh my God!" Odoy fell to his knees seeing Donna's eyes bulging, "Sorry madam, Odoy just wanted to report."
"Why are you scared to see me?" Donna hasn't realized why Odoy stumbled, his eyes are still glaring with exasperation.
"Um, madam." Odoy slowly pointed at Donna's eyes, "Madam is glaring." He continued to tell because Donna looked surprised at his words.
TUING-TUING
Donna gasped at this, rushed over to the Wall-mounted Mirror above the LCD Television Desk, and looked at herself.
JLEB..
"Good grief!" He was surprised to see himself who was still glaring, then chuckled, "No wonder Odoy is afraid to see me." His chuckle just realized why Odoy fell on his knees in surprise to see him. Then his eyes immediately returned with a smile, then to Odoy, "What report do you want? Have you cooked yet as I told you to?"
"So, madam," Odoy was relieved that Donna was no longer glaring at him, "There's Mr. Some Hands."
TUING-TUING
Donna was surprised to hear this, she looked at Odoy, asking for an explanation as to who the 'Mr. SOME HAND' was.
"That's it Madam." Odoy understood that Donna asked for an explanation, "That handsome gentleman who Madam calls Handsome Man. So, I asked Non Nita, what does Handsome Man mean? Non Nita said Mr. Some Hand. Hand means Hand, Some means several. So I call Mr. Handsome Man, because it is easier than calling Mr. Handsome Man* (*reads like an Indonesian, right. Han somee man)."
TUING-TUING
Donna pursed her lips, then looked at Nita, who looked aghast at Odoy's words.
"Nita!"
"Yes Mom?"
"How come you explain that to Odoy? Handsome means Handsome, not Multiple Hands? Why is your English so badass?"
"Finally," Nita slightly scratched her forehead, "That's it." He was confused to find the right answer that he did not like Donna had a man other than Araf in this House. Especially when the man came, his attitude was friendly to Donna, and Donna looked happy. Even though Donna had not divorced from Araf yesterday.
"What's the end?"
"After all," Dido interrupted, "That's Om, keep coming to Mama." He was the one who answered Donna, "Loh, Dido is telling the truth, Mama!" He said when Donna gasped in surprise, "He that's a friendly attitude towards Mama, and Mama is very happy. Luckily Papa didn't know that. If you knew, Papa would have been on a hiatus for that Om, because Mama is Papa's wife."
JLEB..
Donna flinched at this, realizing she had made a mistake. A few months before she sued Araf for divorce, she met Edoardo in Paris, when Tanidy Boutique became one of the Winter Show Fashion Icons there. Edoardo is as handsome as Araf, but has a million charms to conquer women who are loyal to Donna's husband. Moreover, he saw that Donna had a desire to show off. Such a woman is easy to ensnare.
At first Donna did not respond, because she had always been loyal to Araf. But Edoardo did not give up. Now this is also the reason Donna quickly divorced from Araf, because without realizing it fell into the trap of Edoardo's charm.
"Apparently," Nita said while looking at Donna, "Mama divorced Papa for another reason. Mama cheated on that Few Hands Man."
JLEB..
Donna gasped in surprise hearing this, she looked at Nita, then sighed,
"That's enough." She didn't want to talk about Edoardo further to his children, "You guys wash up quickly, change clothes, then eat lunch that Odoy made." She gave instructions to his three children, "Then you." Then the three household members looked at them, "If you really want to go home now, it's better to pack up. Later after packing, meet me in the family room." Then stood up, rushed into the Living Room to meet the Master Handsome Edoardo.
Nita, Dido, and Tami looked at each other, then sighed together.
"Non Nita." Sari approached Nita, "Let's take a peek." He invited Nita to peek at Donna and Edoardo.
"What for?" asked Nita with an annoyed face, "Nita wants to punch that person. People's Household Destroyer." Edoardo cursed.
"Well, Non, we'll take a peek, so if Mr. Some of the Hands wants to be intimate with Madam, we'll disturb it."
"Well," Odoy interrupted quickly, "Don't do that, Non." He prevented Nita from following this naughty Sarah Sari. "Later Madam is angry, Non cries, Non complains to Mr. Araf, then Mr. Araf fights with Madam. Mr. Araf is the most angry when Madam scolds you."
While Donna was in the Living Room, observing Edoardo who was standing facing the photo of Donna and Araf's family. Appeared by Donna, Edoardo is as charming as Hugh Jackman. His macho cute idol plays Wolverine in The X-Men Movie. Moreover, all this time Edoardo had pushed him to show his own abilities, unlike Araf who controlled him.
Edoardo saw Araf's figure in the photo looking annoyed, 'It's a good thing you've been divorced by Donna. Otherwise, you are a hindrance to me using Donna for my Master's sake."
