A Soul On Paper

J.D.A.K CHAPTER 75.

"Hey, what's going on? Why are you crying?" asked Beno who was already standing in the doorway.

Reni jumped upon hearing Beno's voice, immediately she wiped her tears to remove any trace of her crying.

"For Sir," Reni lowered her gaze.

Beno approached Reni and sat down before her. "What's going on? Why is it raining so early in the morning? Did Elkan scold you?"

Reni looked up until their eyes met each other, seconds later Reni turned her gaze in the other direction.

"Sorry sir, my eyes were twinkling. No one is angry, the people in this house are very good" Reni said without looking at Beno.

"Oh, I thought Elkan was scolding you."

Reni shook her head, suddenly her tears flowed back until Beno even knitted his brows in confusion. Beno is curious because since last night the girl always looks moody.

"Are you a soap opera player?" ask Beno.

"No sir, I'm a nurse." Reni said.

"Sadly, you should be an artist. Your talent in acting is very good." Beno chirped.

"What do you mean, sir?" Reni looked at Beno as she knitted her brows.

"It's clear you're acting in front of me. Are you used to lying like this?" Beno's gaze was so sharp that it made Reni's guts shrink.

"Sorry sir, I'll excuse you first." Reni was about to leave, but Beno swiftly held her back.

"Sit down!" Beno's loud voice made Reni tremble.

Reni could not resist, she sat back down while bending her face withstanding the fear.

"I'm not a statue, I'm a human like you. If I talk again please be heard, don't play hazy!"

"Sorry sir, I'm-"

"Don't keep apologizing! Better tell me what happened to you!" emphatically Beno with little emphasis.

Reni nodded without knowing what to say. Should he be honest with Beno? But it's impossible, Beno is nobody to him. There's no way he's telling Beno his personal problems.

"Why remain silent? Do I have to force you to make your mouth make a sound?" Beno drew closer, Reni rounded her eyes perfectly.

What does it mean Beno's gonna kiss her? Ah, it's impossible. Reni patted her forehead to make Beno confused.

"Hey weird girl, what's wrong with you?" Beno was more confused to see Reni's behavior. Is that girl insane? Beno thought in his heart.

Reni still refuses to tell stories. "Sir, can I go now?"

"No, I'll let you go first!" snapped Beno with his sharp gaze.

"Sir, I'm working for Mr. Elkan and Ms. Yuna. Why did you set me up?" lamented Reni a little annoyed.

"Huh, what kind of question is that? Me and Elkan are brothers, so my workers are my workers, too." Beno said.

"Different sir, do not be equated!" Reni was really upset that Beno just kept pushing her.

Beno's words immediately made Reni speech silent a thousand languages. Is this the true nature of the rich? Use the weaknesses of others to suppress them. Reni bowed lethargic while swallowing her cries.

Seeing Reni that way, Beno also felt pity. He didn't mean to make Reni wronged, he just wanted the girl to tell him the problem. Who knows Beno could help him. Beno knew the girl had a wound in her heart, Beno had the least heart to see a woman's cry.

"Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you sad, I was upset because you were too stubborn. I want to help you, if you have a problem tell me! I'm not as bad as you think, trust me!"

With trembling hands, Beno ventured to rub Reni's head, he realized his words had already offended the girl. Reni spilled her tears until she fell to the floor.

"Sstt... Don't cry! I can at least see a woman crying in front of me." Beno distraught himself for not understanding how to calm the girl.

"Hiks... Hix... Bad father," isak Reni while brushed off the hand of Beno who is still playing on his head.

"No, I'm not a bad guy. You misunderstood me, I just wanted to help you overcome your difficulties. But you're so stubborn, is your head made of cement?"

Beno regained his senses and hurried to silence his own mouth. "Gosh, what did I just say? You stupid Beno, he must be getting mad at you." Beno's inner self cursed his stupidity.

"That's right, you are evil. You think I'm a foundation made of cement?" isak Reni increasingly becomes the mouth of Beno who does not have a brake.

"That's not what I meant, but-" Beno did not dare to continue. "Oh, stop crying! Yuna told you to come down for breakfast." Beno added.

Beno stood up and approached the box of his two nephews. After seeing the twins and kissing them, Beno left the room. For a long time he can be stressed if he continues to argue with Reni.

Down there, Elkan was still sitting with Yuna while watching the television broadcast. The two had just discussed the name they wanted to give to the twins.

After arguing for quite a while, Elkan and Yuna finally agreed on the name Edgar Adelio Bramasta for their son and Elga Adelia Bramasta for their daughter.

"Don't forget the online meeting after lunch! I go first," exclaimed Beno with a cold and gluttonous face that made Elkan and Yuna frown at each other.

"What's wrong with your brother?" yuna asked confusedly.

"So, that feeling before you go up is normal. Or maybe-don't-"

"Don't let her fight with Reni." Yuna and Elkan continued together.

"Can't you?" Again, the two spoke together.

The two throw one another a look. Confused, of course yes. But it doesn't make sense that if Beno and Reni get into a fight, they just get to know each other. What ingredients triggered their quarrel? Elkan and Yuna shrugged each other with pursed lips.

In the middle of the journey, Beno's eyes accidentally caught a pair of teenagers who were passing at a crossroads. Beno frowned, it was like he knew the two teenagers before.

Yeah, no more wrong. Beno remembers having just met the two, their sister Reni who had chatted with Beno yesterday afternoon. Why are they both standing at the bus stop? Isn't this school hours? Did they skip?

Beno pulled the car right in front of them, then opened the left front windshield. "Amit, Sari, come in!"

Amit and Sari threw eyes at each other, at first they were confused by the stranger who stopped before them. Moreover, telling them to get into a car as luxurious as that. A few seconds later the two remembered the figure of the man who came with his brother yesterday. Amit and Sari smiled at Beno.

"Come, comein!" take Beno again.

Without thinking, Amit and Sari got into the car and sat in the back seat. Perhaps her brother had told her what had happened to her master. Beno drove up his car and pulled over in front of a park.

Seriate...
