8 To 4: The Mayor's Contract Wife

Ajeng Choices

While returning to his room, Ajeng saw a medicine lying on his room table.

“Have you slept, Jeng?” alvin asked who suddenly went into his room.

Ajeng hurriedly stored his medicine into his pants pocket. “Ka Alvin? What's up?”

“The medicine has been drunk?”

“Already. What medicine is that, by the way? I'm not sick of anything?”

“Vitamin only so you can rest comfortably. It must be a hard day for you.”

“Heeem.”

“Do you know who that man is?” alvin asked while standing in front of Ajeng's glass window.

“Men? You mean Ka Alvin, Mas Wira?”

Alvin nodded.

“He's just an ordinary mayor, naive and stupid. Even so, but he is a sincere person devoted to his citizens.”

“How about you? Does he also consider you more important than them?”

“Kok Ka Alvin nanyanya that is?”

“You should have said from the beginning that you are not a random girl. You are a respectable woman worthy of her worship. But he instead let you digerjain job lowly employee and go both with other guys.”

“Ka, Ka Alvin calm down first. Mas Wira ngelakuin it because of forced.”

“So you already know that he is no more than a coward?!” cerocos Alvin. “Whatever the reason, Brother does not want you to lower your self-esteem only for rich guys he.”

“Ka –“

“Jeng, brother knows we have no relationship that you can call close as a family. Brother is not your brother either. But sister is not willing if our family is trampled and lowly rich lowly he.”

“Ka –“

“It's night, you'd better take a break.”

**************

Ajeng never thought that Alvin who had been considered as his closest family turned out to also oppose his contract relationship with Wira. Seeing what Alvin said to him earlier and the sedative that Alvin prepared for him, Ajeng was sure that his second brother had maxut and other goals.

Pretending to sleep. But when the atmosphere began to quiet, Ajeng changed his nightgown with a white shirt hanging in the wardrobe and then sneaked quietly into the room Wira. He wakes the Hero and forces him to come out secretly from the mansion, where Alvin stopped.

After successfully escaping the observation of the officers who were on guard, Ajeng took Wira into his car.

“Au!..” Whirring Wira while trying to step on the gas pedal.

“Mas Wira why?” whispered Ajeng.

“Ngga papa.”

“Moving!” teh Ajeng who immediately got out of the car and moved to the steering chair in place of Wira.

“You –?“

“Udah game!”

Ajeng started his car and then drove it fast before anyone managed to stop or catch him.

**************

After Ajeng came out of the room of Wira, a guard passed the information to Alvin.

“They tried to escape, Sir.”

Alvin just smiled from behind the curtain while observing the behavior of the two men while trying to turn on his car and escape.

“What should we pursue, Pal?”

Alvin raised his hand a sign of refusal.

“So you prefer him over us?” muttered Alvin while smiling in front of the glass window.

*************

Wira still does not believe that Ajeng can drive a car beyond the skills of a professional racer. He even willingly admitted that the girl drove a car much better than him and his other drivers.

“Why?” tanya Ajeng when he saw the eyes of Wira wide and just kept on being fixed on him.

“I didn't think that you weren't just good at speaking foreign languages and sports. But you are also very good at driving.” Puji Wira sincerely. “By the way where are we going?”

“Rome.”

“But why use the show sneak and get away rich gini everything? Isn't Alvin your brother and has helped us a lot?”

“She must be planning to bring me home quietly before morning. He has prepared everything.”

“Max you?”

“She gave me a choice and I've made a choice.” Ajeng was sure his guess was right. Alvin must have let her choose between staying or leaving because her brother accidentally left Wira's car keys hanging in his place.

“Our journey is still long and you must be tired because you have not rested all day. I'll call Abdi to find a driver for us.”

Chirp.... Ajeng suddenly stepped on his brakes because he saw a cat that suddenly flashed.

Surprised, Wira's phone fell to the floor of the car. Ajeng is forced to help the hero find him. When bending over, the new Wira realized that there was a blood stain on Ajeng's back.

“Jengs! You bleeding?”

Ajeng back to look up. “What blood?”

“Your back.”

Ajeng felt pain in his back. But because he could not feel and see it clearly, Ajeng was forced to let and hold it. Meanwhile, Wira started looking around for her p3k box in the drawer. “Mirgin car!”

Ajeng pulled the car over at the request of Wira. “Mas Wira wants to do it anyway. We must hurry to go far from here.”

“Alvin must have appeared if it intends to pursue us.” Tukas Wira while busy looking for wound medicine and plaster in his p3k box. “Open your shirt!”

“What?!”

“Where would you like to be treated if not opened, Jeng?”

Ajeng is forced to unbutton his shirt and let Wira see his naked back. The man cleaned Ajeng's wounds and applied them with wound medicine and then covered them with plaster.

“The wound is quite wide and there are many bruises also here.” Said Wira trying to hide her heart that was pounding fast seeing the smooth back Ajeng blocked bra straps. “Is there a wound anywhere else?”

Ajeng closed his shirt again, shaking his head. “I don't know. Maybe just a little bruising.”

“Other times, don't self-assert as before. If there are bad people like them, run! Don't even volunteer!”

“Continue doing Mas Wira getting beaten up all out with them?”

“Jeng, they're my business. So you don't have to worry. Your only job is to be the mayor's wife working for the citizens from eight to four in the afternoon, not fighting against rancid bastards like them. Know?!”

Ajeng shook his head and turned his car back on to continue the journey.

“If something happens to Mas Wira, does Mas Wira think I can calm down?” muttered Ajeng lirih.

“I can take care of them and all the risks, Jeng. But if you're okay, I won't be able to feel my guilt. After all, right now you are my wife and your safety is my responsibility.” Obviously Wira is long.

“If I did not add that clause in our contract letter, would Mas Wira ever do the same?”

“Sure. I will not let the people around me get hurt because of me. Moreover that person is you.”

And suddenly the reply of the Hero made Ajeng think back to his brother's cliche question.

(What about you? Does he think you are more important than him?)

“Ahead there is a junction. Take a turn to the left! Tonight we will stay and rest there first. Tomorrow morning we continue our journey.”
