80

I am surprised. It's been a long time since I saw Pipe. But why does he want to meet me?
 “What invitation and when? Honestly, I'm really busy here because I have to open a new production house."
 "You don't have to know exactly when, but you are just invited to come."
 “Oh, okay then, okay? I'll tell Ferdinand first."
 I also hung up the phone. Why did Pipe look for me for me to come there huh?
 I've already told Ferdinand about Pipe's invitation. But both Ferdinand and I are still very busy. I took care of opening my second production house.
 For one month I took care of everything. Assisted by Irene and Ilona. I have also accepted ten new employees. They are skilled at knitting. I also did training for two weeks at a production house to see their ability to make knitted products.
 Today is the opening of my second production house. Wow, this is indeed an unexpected achievement. I can have two production houses at once. Even though this second production house is the result of a collaboration between me and Mrs. Anne. But she said that the production house is in my name and I am the leader here.
 Even though I'm the leader here, it's not as big as Mrs. Anne. But I also just try to do my best.
 I deliberately made the first day of opening a meal for all employees. Today Ferdinand and my two children cannot accompany me because they are busy. But they have fully supported me because I managed to have two production houses.
 Seeing my employees happy makes me happy too. Because I also can't give a bonus at the moment because I'm too focused on preparing to open the second production house.
 But if there are a lot of sales then I will give them a bonus as usual.
 I just remembered about Pipe's invitation. I have to come there immediately. Because all my business is also finished.
 "Mom, I want to live in a dormitory," said Edwin.
 I am surprised. Why suddenly he wants to live in a dorm? "Why?"
 “I saw my friend living in a comfortable dormitory. So just go to school close by."
 Indeed, I know that Edwin's school has a dormitory too. “Are you sure you want to live in a dorm?”
 “Why, Edwin? Don't you like staying at home? You can meet mom and dad at home every day. Go wherever you want. If you live in a dorm you won't be able to leave. You will be the same as in prison. I heard from a friend of mine who lives in a hostel that he wants to go home but because his parents are out of town, he is forced to stay in a hostel."
 Elvia apparently didn't know that Edwin lived in the dormitory.
 “I want to live there. It's not that I don't want to hang out with Mom and Dad. But I just want more time to study. I can also go home once every two weeks.”
 Edwin seemed convinced to just stay in the dormitory.
 "Okay. Let's talk to your father later, okay?" I replied.
 "But please convince Dad so that I can stay in the dorm, Mom."
 Edwin's request was quite heavy. Indeed, I free my children's wishes. But this time it was quite heavy.
 "Yes, Edwin."
 In the evening you gather together in the family room. I told Ferdinand about Edwin's desire to live in the hostel.
 "So Edwin wants to live in the dormitory?"
 "Yes, Dad. I want to be in a hostel.”
 Edwin's face was full of hope that his father would comply with his request.
 "If you're sure, that's fine. When do you want to enter the dorm?” Ferdinand asked
 “Edwin, why do you want to leave me alone?”
 Elvia interrupted. She really doesn't want her brother to go to the dormitory.
 "If I'm not at home, you can play as much as you like without anyone bothering you," answered Edwin.
 It wasn't just Elvia who didn't want Edwin to have to live in the dormitory, but neither did I. But I also didn't want to discourage Edwin even though he wanted to go to the dormitory.
 “Tomorrow, Dad. Because next week it's exam time. So I want to prepare myself for that. In the dormitory at night there is still a teacher accompanying us," answered Edwin.
"Well that's that then. But I think you have to prepare a lot of things. You need to buy clothes and other things," said Ferdinand.
 "Never mind, Dad. I have a lot of clothes in my wardrobe. There is also a bed and study table. So I don't need many things to prepare apart from uniforms and books."
 Edwin apparently had thought about that. I've never been to the dormitory at their school. Because I also have no desire to send them to school.
 "Well, you can prepare yourself tonight, okay?"
 Ferdinand did not refuse and immediately agreed with Edwin's decision.
 I followed Edwin's steps to his room to help him prepare to enter the dormitory.
 "Edwin, are you sure about entering the dormitory?" I asked.
 "Yes, ma'am. Don't you agree?” asked Edwin.
 “It's not like that, darling. I'm just reassuring you. Later you will be far from your father and mother. So you have to prepare yourself to live independently.”
 “Yes, ma'am. Don't worry. I can also carry a cell phone. I'll contact you later."
 Edwin now looks more mature. Even in elementary school in fourth grade, he was ready to live independently in a dormitory.
 "Okay then, Edwin."
 I didn't feel like my tears were falling. Even though I've tried to hold back as much as possible. Finally, I hugged Edwin. I can indeed meet him at any time in the dormitory, but not being in the same house makes me quite sad.
 “Don't cry, mom! If you cry, it makes it hard for me to move on," said Edwin.
 I let go of Edwin's hug. “I'm sorry Mom, Edwin. But what is clear is that I fully support you."
 Different from my separation from Elvin, when Edwin was about to leave this house, I really couldn't bear it. But it can't be helped, this is also for Edwin's good.
 Indeed, if you go to and from school properly, the bus is quite far. So Edwjn made the trip a break and in the evening he could study with his teacher again.
 *
 The next day I took Edwin and Elvia to school. Because I will convey to Edwin's teacher about Edwin's desire to enter the dormitory.
 It didn't take long for Edwin to have a room with his friend. He had already put away his luggage, which was only one backpack. Meanwhile, if you are a woman, you will definitely have one more suitcase for your belongings.
 It's true that the boundaries between men and women are different, but that's the beauty of the difference.
 I hugged Edwin again. In one month I will meet Edwin. Because Edwin said he would go home after his exam was over.
 I went home with Ferdinand. Later Elvia will come home but not Edwin. Hopefully, Edwin will always be healthy in the dormitory.
 Every day I also have to go back and forth to my first and second production houses because my first production house is still running. I don't want it if my production house has done a service to me. If it wasn't possible, I wouldn't be able to open my two production houses.
 I asked Irene to be in production house two while Ilona was in production house one.
 I also can't stay at home because I have to move instead of just staying at home. Moreover, I also thought about Edwin, who was already living in the dormitory.
 Even though there is still Elvia, to be honest, it is different. Elvia's attitude, which usually invites Edwin to fight, is also lonely.
 *
Today I plan to go to the Black Moon pack because I have also prepared to meet Pipe. I also invited Elvia to meet Pipe.
 “Welcome, Agatha. I haven't seen you in a long time."
 Pipe welcomed my arrival with a bright smile.
 “Well, I'm sorry because I was busy before and we just got here.”
 "It is okay. The important thing is that you want to come today, I'm happy," answered Pipe.
 "So what exactly is it that you invited me to come to your house for?" I asked. I've been curious too but only found out today.
 "Well, actually there is something I want to tell you, Agatha. I hope you don't mind. This is a message from Sahira. You haven't forgotten Sahira, have you? You are asked to go to Red Moon Pack immediately.”
 I raised my eyebrows. “Why should I go there? I already feel uncomfortable there. There's been a lot of regional spillovers there. I do not want."
 I refused Sahira's invitation. I really don't want to go there anymore. When I go there there is always bloodshed.
 “But you have to go there, Agatha.”
 Pipe seemed to force me. But I don't want to either. Ferdinand, who was at my father's house, certainly didn't know about this. He will definitely refuse if I am asked to go there again.
