CEO Replacement

Only Clever

It was breakfast time, everyone gathered at the dinner table. All noticed Emi's bandaged hands while picking up the spoon from the middle of the table. Only Kevin is not curious because he knows what causes it and he himself also put the bandage.

"What's your hand, son?" ask Mother Mila worried.

Bima glanced at Emi who was sitting in front of him. Bima did not think that Emi's palm had to be bandaged because of the scratches of roses overnight.

"Oh, it's just a small wound, Bun."

"Small wounds but why should they be bandaged? Let's tell mom why."

"Last night I walked around this villa and saw a rose, I wanted to pick a stalk, uh. Maybe tangakianga is not willing if I pick the flowers," Emi replied not to tell what really happened.

"Are you sure it was just a small wound?"

"Yes, Bun."

"Please, Bun. The wound was trying to get me cleaned up and I gave you medicine last night" Kevin said.

"You also put up the bandages?" ask Mother Mila further.

"Yes, Bun. Two or three days will also be dry but do not know the wound in his heart. Haha..."

"What do you mean, Vin?"

"No, Bun. Just kidding doang. Anyway, mom don't have to worry. As long as there's Kevin he'll be fine" Kevin said.

"Yes, Bun. Mother of energy, Kevin the best doctor Emi," added Justin.

"Yes, Bun. I'm his best doctor, Emi. Aye, mi?"

Kevin poked his hand around Emi's neck and raised both eyebrows grinning. Kevin also glanced at Bima who was silent.

"Yes, Bun. I'm fine, really. Mother do not have to worry let alone this is just a small wound," reassured mother Mila if the wound in her hand does not hurt and as bad as her mother might think.

Bima sat quietly without participating in the conversation of the people at the dining table. He only needed to finish his breakfast and after everything was done he could go for a walk enjoying the peak atmosphere.

Bima was not worried because she knew that Emi would not tell her what was really going on. All this time every time Bima ignored and left him on the road never Emi complained to Mother Mila. That's why Bima did not hesitate and thought twice every time he ignored Emi.

If Mother Mila does not know how Bima's attitude towards Emi, then the other case with Kevin. Kevin knows how Bima treats Emi.

..........

Mother Mila invites all her children to go around and take a walk, spending time with her three children. Bima followed them from behind. Emi was so enthusiastic about running here and there and down the vast tea plantation.

Mother Mila smiled to see the figure of the girl who was so cheerful that ran to the middle of the garden and let her enjoy her vacation.

Feeling uncomfortable with the bandage so much wrapped around Kevin in his palm, Emi opened it and just threw away the bandage. He noticed his scar that was not very deep.

Emi stretched her hands out like a movie scene, waiting for a prince to hug her from behind but that was just a silly thought of Emi. He resumed his journey until a little further away from the rest but was still visible.

Puk!

Emi tripped over a twig and fell. His hand that was scratched suddenly felt so painful, Emi felt that something was stuck in there.

Sure enough, when Emi raised her hand she saw shards of dried snail shell stuck on her scratched hand. Emi did not move when she saw blood filling her palm.

Having a cheerful nature but phobia to blood, that's Emi. There's no one around him. He sat still not knowing what to do. Really Emi was trembling to see her hands getting full of blood especially the snail shell did not dare he pull out.

Asik with the surrounding scenery makes three men and a woman unaware of the existence of Emi who was sitting limp covered with tea trees.

"Sister, Bim?"

"Emm?"

"She's beautiful and adorable, isn't she?"

"If you're still living in a parlor and you haven't been adopted by your mother, maybe I'll date her. Hehe..."

Kevin chuckles saying that to Bima. He shifted his phone screen and showed Bima random pictures of Emi.

"Kevin?"

"Yes, brother?"

"You shouldn't say such a thing. The three of you were raised by your mother and also loved like your own child. Don't make a mistake just because of something stupid like what you said just now."

"I'm just smart, brother. I also know what to do and what not to do. I've known Emi since she was very young. I've even wiped his old toothpaste first. I've taken it like my own sister."

"Good then."

"I'll take care of Emi and won't let anyone hurt her. When he was a child he was very quiet and moody, not willing to join the other orphanage children. But I managed to make it what it is today. He became brave, cheerful and strong. I managed to do it with the other orphanage kids, including Justin."

Kevin recounted a small part of their time while still in the parlour. Stabbing Emi, yelling at her and making her angry is the way she does it with the orphanage children so that Emi wants to talk and open up.

Unfortunately, the habit was brought by Kevin until now they have grown up and are in the Suntama family.

Bima listened to everything told by Kevin but he considered everything ordinary. Bima knows that the life of children in the orphanage is not easy but all of them have their own way.

Both of them looked towards Emi but did not see her again. Mother Mila and Justin just kept going for a walk while talking about something that seemed quite serious.

"Emi don't look sister, Bim."

Bima and Kevin simultaneously circulated his gaze looking for Emi's whereabouts that were no longer visible. Without informing Mom Mila and Justin, the two retreat to find Emi.

The area of the tea plantation is quite extensive makes Bima and Kevin quite overwhelmed, especially today there are no tea pickers. If only there were tea pickers then it would be very easy to find Emi by asking them.

Bima and Kevin must find Emi before Madam realizes it and worries him. Mother Mila loved Emi very much, the girl occupied the highest level from between Justin and Kevin.

In his place, Emi still survived and did not dare to step. His face was already pale and his mouth was clenched ever since he saw the blood in his hands.

"Emi! You-"

Emi turned to the voice that called her name. He raised his bloody hand to show.

"Why can you bleed like this?" holding Emi's wrist. "Come on," he asked Emi.

Emi looked at her trembling legs, she was not strong standing up. Emi's phobia of blood is huge.

"Let's go up," asked Emi to go up to his back.

The young man ran carrying Emi to return to the villa and treat her injuries.

"Kevin?"

Bima's call was ignored by Kevin, he continued to run carrying Emi on his back. Bima felt something happen to Emi, she caught up with Bima from behind to confirm it.

Arriving at the villa, Kevin lowers Emi and pulls the chair on the terrace for Emi to sit on.

"Wait a minute" said Kevin running deep.

Shortly afterwards, Bima also arrived and her eyes were immediately fixed on Emi's bloody hand. Spontaneous Bima holding Emi's wrist, he was also in pain to see the snail shell stuck in the palm of Emi's hand.

Kevin ran out carrying warm water in the basin to clean the blood in Emi's hands.

"Surge, brother."

Kevin took over Emi's hand that Bima was holding and started to purge her blood.
