The clock on the wall showed four in the afternoon. Aini, who was sleeping on the couch in Lia's house, woke up when she heard the sound of the door opening and closing. His still blurry eyes couldn't catch who was coming, but he was very sure that this person was Lia herself. The girl who had just arrived lay down on the floor, right beside Aini and took a deep breath like she had just had a long day. Though, he was only outside for a few hours. Aini, who was starting to realize, looked at her best friend with squinted eyes, not because she was thinking but because her eyes still couldn't open completely. The sleepiness inside him didn't go away, so he couldn't really look at Lia. His friend seemed to be aware because he raised his head, also looked at Aini who was still lying on the couch. A smile appeared on Lia's lips when she saw Aini who was so calm. “Already up?” she asked. His hand rubbed Aini's head by itself, making the child smile broadly. “Where do you want to have dinne
“Have you got a drink?” Hearing the sound of the door opening and then closing, Lia looked up from the cellphone she was playing with. When he looked at Aini, his eyes widened. It's hard for Aini to give a smile to her best friend, knowing that she really doesn't want to see her sad again. Lia herself did not know what to say. The fake expression he was showing, he couldn't just let it go. He felt like he wanted to ask what happened to Aini, but just from that expression, it was certain that Aini didn't want to talk about it. With that, Lia decided to smile and pretend. Surely Aini doesn't want to bother Lia, that's why she is acting like now. While watching Aini put down her groceries, Lia swallowed the pain for herself and gave the latest information to Arjuna. According to Lia, the man deserved to hear this. He himself said that he wanted to protect Aini, so he had to know what happened to that girl. While occasionally glancing at Aini, Lia sent messages carefully, not wanting he
“Just like this.” Lia, who was helping Aini, looked at her best friend. Because of orders from Leo, he wanted Aini to dress up more for lunch that day. The girl didn't know where she would be invited to have lunch, but she would rather not create a commotion between the two of them. “Is that enough?” Now trying to be certain, staring at his reflection from the glass in Lia's house. "Yes, believe me. Besides, why do you have to listen to Leo? It's obvious that he did it purposely to say that he is more powerful.”Without being told, Aini already knew. Even he was fully aware of Leo's intentions. Even so, to reject what the man said was not as easy as he expected. Indeed, position is not everything for Aini, but Leo's position is even related to his father. He will find another way that won't hurt both parties, plus he can get freedom. Imagining it all is what keeps Aini excited to continue her life. Before he left, he had to escape from this bondage first. Lia, who realized Aini's e
“Lia, I'll go first, okay?” Aini, who was ready, put on her apprentice clothes and the bag slung over her shoulder, said goodbye to her best friend. Lia who was getting ready, nodded her head. “Be careful on the road, if there is anything directly tell me!” replied Lia who had difficulty wearing her clothes. Aini only replied with a nod of her head, as if she wanted to say that she understood the situation. If possible, Aini will stop by Dave's house tonight to pick up his things, he can't keep borrowing Lia's while living with him. Even so, if that was completely impossible, Aini decided to go shopping, not wanting to continue to bother her best friend. During her stay these two nights, Aini still felt like a burden. Being on his way to his office only makes Aini's mind roam everywhere. There were so many things he was thinking about at one time that his head hurt. He hasn't told his friend about yesterday's incident, it is not his intention to make him worry about the problems th
Aini's legs continued to twitch unsteadily. He looked around with a sense of fear, while his eyes kept looking around. Now he is sitting with Leo. For the opportunity given by Dave, Aini will accompany him that morning to meet the client's wife. Just waiting for the woman to come only makes Aini feel like her heart will be improper. Of course, Leo was fully aware of Aini who kept moving her legs because she felt uncomfortable. Leo's feeling of dissatisfaction made him stop Ain many times, only to find her repeating the same thing over and over again. Because of that, Leo finally let Ain be like that, slightly threatening him to act sweet when he was in front of his client's wife. Hearing this threat made Aini silent, she had absolutely no intention of damaging her image. “There he is.” Leo, who saw a woman, looking so elegant when walking, immediately stood up and pulled Aini with him, so he would stand up too. “What should I talk about?” asked Aini who whispered to Leo, feeling a
I don't know how many hours Aini has been waiting for Leo. This isn't the first time he's been late when he said he wanted to meet. This made Aini feel frustrated, but she tried to hold it in. Leo has important activities, considering his family must have forced him to learn about the company faster. As long as Aini meets Leo recently, he will surely continue to complain about how tired he is of being forced to study and only study, reducing his time to be with Aini. The girl who is so innocent and kind-hearted certainly doesn't see anything out of the ordinary, so she continues to accept all these complaints, even though at the same time she also wants to complain about something. He always kept the bitterness in his heart silent, he swallowed it himself and received all the complaints from Leo too. Perhaps, people would say that Aini was too stupid to be taken advantage of by Leo, but Aini felt that there were times when people were like that too. Aini is also often like that with
Being in Dave's car made the atmosphere feel very awkward. In fact, usually Dave always joked when they were driving alone, but this time both of them just kept quiet. After Aini finished meeting with Clarity, Dave immediately called her and said to come to the house, take her things. At first, Aini did not understand what the man meant, but finally Aini understood what he meant. Who knows how long, Aini will continue to live with Lia. That way, she had to have her clothes and belongings left in Dave's apartment. Aini wasn't ready to go there or see what was inside, it's just that she couldn't refuse the offer. If he did, he might not get another chance like this. Therefore, even though the feelings inside his heart told him not to do it, he ended up doing it anyway. The journey wasn't that far, but the awkwardness between them made it all the more awkward. Every time Aini wanted to say something, she immediately discouraged it. The same goes for Dave, every time he opens his mouth
“Today, everything I treat!” shouted Lia who was holding a glass of cold juice. The smile on his lips was so wide that it felt a little creepy. “Don't eat too much, you'll get a stomach ache,” warned Aini who saw Lia's orders that had piled up. "Why? Tonight we eat all you can eat, all you can eat! As… a sign of Aini's struggle against men who like to cheat!”Lia's style of talking like a drunken person made Aini chuckle. It's true, when Aini almost melted away last night from Dave, suddenly Lia came and knocked on Dave's car window. Of course, the sound that sounded loud in the car managed to surprise them both. Knowing that Dave couldn't do anything, he immediately opened the lock and let Aini out. The expression of annoyance and anger was clearly printed when Aini walked out and took her suitcase. Initially, Dave wanted to help, but was immediately stopped by Lia. "What do you want? Help? You don't have to pretend to be a hero, I'm disgusted by that!” Lia exclaimed plainly. Lia'
