TELL LAURA I LOVE HER
AUGUST'S FIRST VISIT TO LAURA'S ORPHANAGE

FROM SEDAYU ~ JOGJAKARTA, YANKTIE SAID GOODBYE READING

This morning Laura returned to the Kopo Bandung area, where her boutique is located. He has promised with Mr. Witri to complete the design ordered by his future wife Ubby. This time Mr. Witri came with his mother because Mr. Ruben or commonly called Ubby could not accompany. Ubby's sister is busy completing her work so that when the wedding time she is no longer a burden.

“Fix like this Yes Brother, broken color white,” Laura re-affirms orders kak Witri. Laura also separated out which ingredients the graceful woman chose.

“Surely this one, Brother, will not change? If I'm sure I will lagsung separatin,” Laura again ensure the choice of materials that Witri choose.

“Iya, Brother take that one,” replied Witri confidently.

Laura is happy that her foster sister will propose a girl who is very suitable with Ubby's sister.

‘Matching pairs,’ Inner Laura.

Laura remembers that Steve's first wife did not fit in and disliked Clara's mother. And the journey between the two is not long, because brother Steve and brother Steffy both do not want to give up.

Finally at the wedding of the third year Steve and Steffy's brother separated, fortunately there are no children. Two years later Steve's brother remarried to his gentle mother Ningrum and Clara's dear mother. They now live in Semarang with their three children.

Sis Dipta's soul mate is also soft and can invite anyone cheerful with a joke laugh. It has been seven years since Dipta and Uni Franda got married, and they still have no children. But the couple never looked sad or blamed each other. They remain harmonious.

Last night, Clara told me on the phone that Kak Dipta was the one who could not have children. Indeed, since last week, Laura and Mami Clara often chat at night by phone. Since long time mami suggested that Dipta and Franda raise children only. It has been almost two years they intend like that but have not been realized.

Mami Clara hopes that by reuniting with Laura, their hopes of adopting a child can occur. Because last week the union Franda and Dipta had invited Clara's mother to accompany them to come to the orphanage led by their youngest brother.

Laura was the second child in her family, but her sister died a few months before she was born. Until he became the firstborn. But in Clara's family, she is the youngest child with three older brothers.

“Lunch outside yok,” invite Witri to Laura.

“Bby Brother, where to eat?” Laura did not reject the invitation.

“I again want salad and ice cream, how about if we eat pizza only, let's settle to eat salad there?” ask Witri.

“Oke Kak, we walk by ourselves, Kak, because after lunch I want to directly shop for parlour needs and go straight home to Cimahi,” without objection Laura took her bag and mobile phone. He said goodbye to his employees after giving orders for Witri's order.

“Kak, thank you yes. Because my sister so meet again with mom Cla (Clara ).” Laura said on their lunch break.

“When we spoke by phone several times, but did not know you are Ubby's adoptive sister who several times he told me,” Witri also did not expect to be a bridge for Laura and her future husband's family.

“So Ubby ever tell you about me?”  Laura doesn't believe this news.

“Teteh, guests from Jakarta have arrived,” Nengsih reported to Laura that there will be four people from Jakarta who want to give compensation to the orphanage.

“Be told to wait in the living room, provide drinks and snacks yes. I'll be out soon, ” Laura replied. He immediately tidied up his work files, not wanting the sketches he made to fly if they weren't straightened up before he left.

In the living room, Laura saw four adult men chatting awaiting her arrival. At the table besides drinking that Nengsih had prepared, there was a pack of cigarettes and matches. He must strictly forbid guests not to smoke. But if it is only placed on the table, it does not matter.

“Sorry to wait,” Laura sends greetings introductions by apologizing.

“I am Laura, who leads this cottage.” The girl introduced herself politely.

‘The leader of his cottage is very young, can he manage the cottage well?’ so were the thoughts of the four established men who came by then. They looked at workmanship based on the appearance of Laura's age.

“I'm Tortoise, it's Revelation, It's Septian and it's August. We from the motor community, want to give a little rizky that we have. Coincidentally we are currently surveying first, because the plan is we will come with members about one month away.” One of the four men introduced themselves and expressed the intentions of those who were the survey team of a motorcycle community.

“I personally and we as the manager of the home, in principle do not refuse the helping hand of donors. Only we strongly reject donations used as promos. Not arrogant, we just do not want after for the promo and then this home will be the target of other donor promos. Because usually similar organizations do not want to lose, and will participate in making larger donations with more vigorous promos. Then it will not run out, even though the windfall is coming, but we do not want the home to be promo material.” Laura gave the foundation principles she led.

Furthermore discussed also the provision of not smoking in all lines in the environment of the foundation, and when the implementation of the visit and how much the group estimates will be present. They exchanged numbers that could be contacted.

Laura gave a mobile number that was indeed specific to the foundation. The number is different from the number for the button. Especially the numbers for private. Indeed all three have different numbers so as not to be confused if the same. Usually the phone with the foundation number is held by Nengsih or employees who are picketing. That number is on the foundation's business card.

“If at this time, we want to make a personal donation, is there an account number we can know?” septian asked before they left.

“The phone number for donation and account number is in the business card,” reply Laura politely.

“So the phone number you gave me wasn't your personal number?” curious Revelation asked, he did not want if the idle chat private turned out not Laura who holds the number.

“Not, I did not give you a personal mobile number for the affairs of the foundation,” Laura replied firmly, making August, Revelation and Septian take a view. The three of them certainly had the same intention, looking for opportunities to approach Laura. Wicak already married, then had no intention of it.
