Intan Pov.
I fell silent after hearing Mrs Tutik's words. Sometimes, those words are true. My high trauma when I love a man makes it so difficult to open my heart. So that he was so concerned with me when there was a strange in my attitude.
"Sorry, Intan will keep his distance."
"It's not because I don't like it. But, this is for Intan's own sake. Not because of the trauma, but because of Intan's work as well. I am afraid, when you both hang expectations, all are destroyed instantly just because of Intan's work. It's very hard to accept a woman with a profession like yours."
"Yes, Mom. Intan just wants to have a best friend, that's all."
"Yes, it's just... A grown man and woman, so rarely can be good friends." he replied at the end of the story.
I just nodded in lethargy, because what He said was almost true. I have to keep the feeling, so as not to get deeper into him. Moreover, it was indeed so comfortable when it was next to him.
Miss Tutik left me, and asked me to sleep as usual. And after Maghrib, he'll wake me up.
I saw that HP from earlier was untouched. And I opened one by one the messages that were in it.
"Hotel Andalasia, 21:00, room 209. An Mr. Rafles."
Either you should be grateful or you should be sad. I'm getting comfortable when I don't do that again for a week. But, finances are running low at the moment. Especially Dad, whose heart medication is dropped once a week. And one of the messages was from Ricki.
" Daddy's medicine is running out soon. Can you make it up to him? And... I've been calling your name lately" he said via Wa.
"Aaaarrrgh! Why, when I want to stop, is there anything that requires me to go on." I grumbled, with long hair.
I lay my body on the bed, and melt the eyes of the dark night.
Troy Pov.
I'm leaving, but not coming home. I keep going to a place that used to be a place to hang out for people like Intan. Not wanting to put Intan into their group, but I want to know, how to redeem Intan from Madamnya.
"They came alone, and asked madam Lola to orbit herself on each subscription. But, they would be so hard to get out of that world."
"It's hard, at least it can. There must be a way." replied Troy.
"You have to make a lot of money for him. Moreover, classmate Intan. Madam Lola will lose so much if Intan leaves."
I nodded, as if my spirit was driven to work and collect as much money as I needed.
"Somehow the hell does he have to be? He wears a lot of people. It ruined his future. Why don't you look for someone else, at least better than him."
"I know, he's not good. I know he's broken and can't be fixed. But, I know him." I answered by chugging the drink on my desk.
"Yes, it's up to you. There are so many risks when you are with him. The existing image, will not be lost easily even if you are married. You have to take care of your heart, and keep him from getting tempted back."
My best friend, is one of Madam Lola. He opened his group and walked in his own community. Although still in the care of Madam Lola, so that He knows very well about Intan.
This heart seems to be racing, and so eager to fight for Intan to be mine. I don't care, no matter what the past is, how bad it is.
