Droplets of Night Creatures

86. Aruna's jealousy

After a week in the Mental Hospital and declared cured, Shofia was allowed to go home with various records.

Shofia's lawyer Lucas arrives to pick up Shofia's personal assistant, Aida.

When looking at Shofia's much better condition, Lucas and Aida seem to smile happily. But when he saw the wounds on Shofia's face and part of her arm, both of them looked sad.

" Don't look at me with such a rich pity. I don't like to be pitied...!" shofia said loudly to make Aida tremble in fear.

" We don't pity you Madam" Lucas said boldly to the point of Shofia snorting in annoyance.

" Where do I keep my expensive clothes Aida. Do I have to go home wearing patient clothes ?. Or you deliberately let everyone know if I've been a patient of Mental Hospital...?!" shofia asked angryly.

" I'm sorry, i.. this is Madam..," said Aida nervously and handed a paper bag containing branded clothes from a famous boutique.

Shofia greeted the paperbag quickly then glanced at its contents. A smile appeared on his lips as he looked at the clothes that suited his taste.

" It's good. Right with the condition of my skin that has a lot of scars. You're smart to choose Aida." Shofia praised to make Aida breathe a sigh of relief.

Then Lucas and Aida came out of the room to give Shofia a chance to change clothes. Ten minutes later, Shofia opened the door and let the two of them into the room.

" I still feel uncomfortable with the wounds on my skin. Do you have anything to cover my face Aida...?" ask Shofia.

" I only have this Madam..," said Aida while removing the scarf wrapped around her neck.

" Mmm, I think it's better, '" said Shofia while observing Aida's cloth for a moment.

" Want I help Mrs...?" tanya Aida offered herself.

" Can. Try not to show my face." said Shofia.

" Good Mistress..," said Aida.

Then Aida began to fold her scarf and put it on Shofia's face. The two ends of the scarf are tied in such a way behind the head. Afterwards hesitantly Aida faced Shofia and asked.

" Is this like enough Madam...?" ask Aida scared.

" Ok gapapa..," said Shofia.

After making sure Shofia is ready, Lucas and Aida take Shofia out of the Mental Hospital.

While on her way home, Shofia asks her lawyer to take care of her departure from the country.

" Why do you want to leave the country Madam, you are still under the supervision of a doctor...?" ask Lucas.

" I want plastic surgery..," Shofia said quickly.

" My Advice is that you should postpone the trip until the doctor says you're cured Mrs..," Lucas said.

" I can't wait too long, Lucas. My face and body are the most important assets in my life. How can you prevent me from fixing everything...?!" ask Shofia riled.

" But Madame..," Lucas' speech is interrupted as Aida cuts quickly.

" Please take care of Mr. Lucas. I will accompany the Lady there. Maybe you don't understand how important this is for Mrs Shofia. For women like us skin health is the main capital and a beautiful face is a bonus." said Aida.

Shofia looked to look at Aida and smiled happily because she had the support.

" It turns out you understand me better than Lucas does" Shofia said with a smile.

" I understand how you feel because I'm the Lady's woman" said Aida humbled to make Shofia laugh.

" good. I do need someone who understands all about me and my needs" Shofia said in her laughter.

Hearing Shofia and Aida's words made Lucas nod. He promised to take care of all that Shofia needed as long as she was treated abroad.

That makes the Kautsar happy not to be a bitch. He felt the way to get the heart of Aruna will soon bear sweet fruit. It only took a little while for Aruna to see her sincerity.

That night the Kautsar had just performed the Isya prayer in the musholla. Then he approached Aruna who was sitting in the middle room while doing her college work.

" Today I got a bonus from Run's office. Yes, you hold it," said Kautsar, handing Aruna a brown envelope with money.

" Bonuses from the office, why do you think you can get a bonus...?" aruna asked as she opened the envelope and counted the contents.

" I would have said if I managed to make a company dapetin a big project. That's why I got a bonus..," said Kautsar while taking banana chips in a jar that is beside Aruna.

" This is a lot of tsar. This is for yourself or divided by your friends again...?" ask Aruna.

" That makes me Run. My friend also got his own bonus from the office..," said Kautsar.

" What's her name...?" ask Aruna.

" Reyhan..," said Kautsar quickly.

" Rinya...?" tanya Aruna tried to remember.

" yes. You will have known him the other day,." said Kautsar.

" O that Reyhan, yes I'd love to. Then this is a bonus from the project that you discussed with Reyhan and Mrs Shofia is Tsar...?" ask Aruna.

" True..," said Kautsar while peeping Aruna's cheek quickly.

" I don't want to hold it. You're the one who holds it and abisin himself" Aruna said as she placed the envelope with the money in the palm of the Kautsar.

" Why Run, why...?" ask Kautsar not understand.

" Gapap. Just buy something out of that money. Make me want the same incident when you were trapped in his house at that time..," said Aruna reluctantly.

" Geez that's what's being discussed. But this is purely the result of my hard work, my dear. I get this money for work instead of doing something that's not really the same as him" Kautsar said.

" Yes I know. But I don't want to accept it because it's not comfortable..," said Aruna.

" What a difference. This money is just paper that can be bought. It won't do either. If shopping for vegetables or clothes with this money keeps the goods changed that...?" ask Kautsar confused.

" That's not the point Kautsar !. You don't know either. I don't want to shop for something or use something that's originally related to Shofia, you know...!" said Aruna loudly while staring at the Kautsar.

For a moment the two fell silent while staring at each other.

" You're jealous of Aruna...?" ask Kautsar carefully.

" Y...!" sahut Aruna while looking up to make Kautsar smile.

" But your attitude is that you are jealous of Aruna." said Kautsar.

" What the hell are you. Don't ge er ya..," said Aruna while throwing a sofa pad at the Kautsar until Kautsar laughed.

Seeing the Kautsar continue to laugh made Aruna upset and then rose from her seat and went to the room. But Aruna's steps came to a halt when the Kautsar blocked his hand.

" I like to be jealous of you Aruna" Kautsar said, looking at Aruna's eyes gently.

" Ck, I'm not jealous...!" argue Aruna again.

" Gapapa if you don't want to tell me," Kautsar said as he pulled Aruna into his arms.

Aruna smiled silently. Indeed, there is more Aruna worried than the jealousy that Kautsar said earlier. Aruna feels that something big will force her to meet Shofia again.
