I gasped, she not only snapped but also stood up suddenly and shook my hand, quite sick.
After standing up, he rubbed his shoulders, like he was throwing dust from his shoulders. Just where I held it.
"Hey, why shut up! what's that smell in your hand?" ask her again in the same way as before. Jerk me.
At first I didn't understand what he meant, so I kept quiet. But after he said my hand, I immediately kissed my hand.
"Oh, this is bay onion sir!" answer me slowly.
"Why does it smell like onions, what are you doing?" ask again with an annoyed look more than before.
"I cut onions in the kitchen!" I answered nervously.
"Ck. what part of the kitchen is lacking waiters until you have to go to the kitchen. Call Mr. Ranu, I need to talk to him!" he looked very angry at the kitchen.
I approached her to explain but she stayed away.
"Stay there, just talk from there! I don't like the smell of onions!" it was clear that she and I were standing right at my place.
"Sorry sir, it's not so. I'm just confused what to do? so I want to cook for you!" answer me frankly.
I really don't want the kitchen to get in trouble because of me. It is better for him to be angry and cursing at me than for him to scold Ranu sir, if that happens then Ranu sir will also be angry at Mela and Yuni. I didn't want that to happen, they were already very scared when I approached them and was in the kitchen this morning.
"Did you think I'd love your cooking? what are you cooking for me for?" ask her again and this time I choose to shut up and lower my face.
"If you don't have another job, just clean this room, or clean the room. Don't touch the onions, I don't like it!" said again.
I nodded my head quickly.
"Okay sir!" answer me quickly.
"Wash your hands until the smell of onions is gone, just come here again!" his orders again.
I immediately nodded again and walked out of his study. I went to the guest toilet and washed my hands with a lot of soap several times. But the smell of these onions really does not want to disappear.
"It still smells, how about it?" I muttered after coming out of the bathroom.
"Try asking Ranu sir!" I muttered while looking for Mr. Ranu.
I look for Mr. Ranu towards the kitchen, if usually at home I also like to help my mother peel and cut onions that will be used for fried onions on rice while selling my mother. But usually I would wait for the smell to go away on its own after some time, after washing my hands with soap. But if Samuel wants the smell to go away, I don't know what to do.
While in the kitchen I did not find Mr. Ranu there, there was only Mela and Yuni who behaved very differently like the rice earlier. They spoke while bowing their heads and did not dare to look at me. Like his sir Ranu had scolded them.
They also said that they do not know where Mr. Ranu is, because the two of them have been in the kitchen since. Right too, how did they know. I then walked towards the park, and I happened to see Mr. Ranu standing under a tree while calling someone.
I became curious, I walked slowly and approached her without making a sound.
"I can't go home, yes I know this is an important moment for Adinda, but I've taken time off when you're sick. can't be Mom!" said Mr. Ranu like being at odds with someone because his face looks anxious.
"Sir Ranu..!" call me because I'm close enough to her.
"Miss Naira, how can I help you?" ask her while smiling.
I was quite surprised by the change in his expression which I felt was quite fast.
"Em, look sir. Do you know how to get rid of the smell of onions on your hands?" ask me while raising my hands and showing it to Ranu sir.
"Oh, with Lemon miss. Balur with lemon water, freshly washed with soapy water!" clearly while smiling.
I also developed my smile.
"Well, Mr. Ranu, thank you very much!" I said to Ranu sir.
I turned around, but only a few steps I walked. Ranu sir called me back.
"Miss Naira!" call him and I stop my steps and turn to face him.
"Yes, Ranu sir. What's up?" ask me politely.
"Miss Naira, I'm sorry miss but.. did you hear what I said on the phone earlier?" ask her a little doubt.
"Sorry Mr. Ranu, I accidentally heard it. Is there anything I can help you with?" ask me to offer help.
Mr. Ranu looked doubtful, but he walked forward and approached me.
"Can I ask for your help Miss Naira?" asked Ranu a little doubt.
I smiled, I knew I wouldn't be able to do much in this house. But there is no harm if I listen first what Mr. Ranu wants to say, who knows I can help him.
"Look, Miss, my daughter's going to graduation tomorrow. My wife and son want me there. But I asked for a leave of absence a few days ago because my wife was sick. Miss, can I ask for help miss. I would love to attend when my daughter is at graduation...!" mr. Ranu looks so sad. He can't even continue his words.
"I can't leave my duty, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said this..!"
I know Mr. Ranu really wants to be present in the important moments of his son, I am the same. It is a priceless happiness if the person we love is present in our special moment.
"Sir Ranu, I'll ask Samuel for your permission!" slowly say.
I don't know, too, the courage from which I can speak so confidently. But I really just want Mr. Ranu's son to feel that his father cares about him very much, because it's the reality.
"Is that really Miss Naira? thank you, miss, thank you so much!" he said very happy.
I just smiled and walked into the house, I looked for lemon in the kitchen and rubbed my hands with lemon juice and rinsed it again with soapy water and clean water.
And it turned out to be true, the smell of the bringer instantly disappeared.
"Well, one problem has been resolved, now another one, how should I ask permission for Mr. Ranu?" I asked, muttering at Samuel's doorstep.
