Erica's Secret

Erica's Secret
Take Mom to Jakarta



Erica has arrived at her home in Sukabumi. Small and very beautiful housing. The environment looks comfortable. But something's not right there. Messy stuff. And everything looks fucked.


Erica immediately looked for where her mother was.


"Mother.mom.." call Erica. Unexpectedly, he saw mother crying in the corner of the house. He slumped his face and his shoulders swayed.


"Mother.." call Erica.


Mother raised her face. And saw his beloved daughter in front of him.


"Erica, Son..You here?" ask me I don't believe


"Yes, Mom, it's Erica..."


Mom immediately rushed into Erica's arms. It feels weak and helpless..


"Sorry, Mom, yes, son...It's got Erica worried... I really didn't think you'd come here this fast."


"Feeling Erica is not good, Mom, since yesterday I cried. And brother asked to transfer the money immediately. Erica's not worried, Mom. Mom, I'm so happy, I'm going with Erica to Jakarta. Erica lives somewhere and that's enough if you live there."


"But how's this house, Erica? This house is the legacy of the Father..."


"Mother just relax. I'll take care of this house and I'll make sure it's safe" said Jonathan, who was suddenly in talks with Mom and Erica


"Who are you..."


"Ah yes, Mom, this is Erica's boyfriend. Name's Jonathan. Erica's here with Jonathan, Mom..."


Mother nodded. Seeing Jonathan's good looks, Mom immediately gasped. .


"I'm Jonathan, Mom. Erica's boyfriend.."


"I'm Erica's mother."


"So, this house is a mess because..."


"That's someone coming to collect Erica's brother's debt. I don't know if Erica's brother has debts and the collectors come to ruffle the house..."


Jonathan nodded in understanding.


"I think you better come with Erica to Jakarta with me. So Erica can calm down and not worry because mom is far from Erica. Erica's house has several rooms, ma'am. So don't worry..."


They were chatting together. Mother had already begun to calm down from her anxiety. I agreed to come with Erica to Jakarta and would pack her things.


As Erica waited, Eshan came in a hurry. He saw Erica with a tall man with her. And it turns out Erica came in a fancy car parked in front of the house.


"You're coming, Erica" said Eshan.


"Yes, Bang." Erica replied coldly. He did not expect that his brother would cause such a thing.


"Then you? You who?" ask Eshan.


"I? I'm Erica's boyfriend." Jonathan replied with a smile. He saw her brother Erica was very different from Erica. Seeing the problem he caused, it felt like he wanted to punch his brother in the face.


"About? Bang, last night Erica transferred Brother. Erica thinks it's money for Mom. Apparently what? Mom doesn't take the money. Brother's money, right? And these? This house is a mess. Debt collection is coming and what are you doing?" Erica immediately spurted Eshan with this and that talk. Makes Eshan uncomfortable being lectured like that by his own sister.


"That's my big brother for making money, Erica!"


"With what? Motor racing bets? Bang, if you want to get that money work! Not betting!"


"Shut up! Working in Jakarta makes you a pretentious yes!"


"If the money I send is used to bet continuously, I better not send money to you anymore!"


"Oh so you want to be arrogant huh? Work in Jakarta, have a girlfriend and now what? Don't want to send money here again? How rich is your girlfriend? Never mind that car in front of the house is a rental car!" reply Eshan..


"Just talk to brother!"


Seeing the two brothers fighting with their mouths, Jonathan wanted to mediate. Honestly, Jonathan doesn't really like Eshan's style of speech that much.


"Erica, I'd better help you talk to your brother, yeah." said Jonathan quieted down Erica's emotions.


"You who? You're an outsider, you have no right to interfere with our family affairs!" eshan says he refuses with a clash that leaves Jonathan's pride hurt. He would remember this until Eshan knelt down to ask for money from him.


"Is that so? But I have something that can solve my brother's problem" Jonathan said.


"Most also borrowed money.


" Oh yeah?"


Jonathan took out his wallet and pulled a wad of money out of his wallet. Seeing the money issued by Jonathan, making Eshan forget himself from the words he just said.


Jonathan didn't just give it away. He gave the conditions to Eshan.


"I'll give you this money. Consider it a down payment. But, stay away from Erica and Mom. If anything happens to them, brother will confront me."


"Yes, yes! Agree." replied Eshan quickly. Jonathan smiled smirked. If Erica's brother is in the Baron's barn, then she's gone. Unfortunately, this is not a baron.


Jonathan gave the money to Eshan. And Eshan accepted it with pleasure. While Erica was disgusted with her Brother who behaved like that.


"After I'm ready, we go straight to Jakarta, baby." said Jonathan.


"Yes, honey.."


Twenty minutes later, I was ready with my suitcase. Erica helped mom with her briefcase.


"Mom, I brought the important thing, didn't I, Mom? The letters?"


"Yes, I brought everything... I only bring the important ones. Mother's clothes don't carry much...."


"It's okay, ma'am, we can buy clothes in Jakarta."


Jonathan stood up from his seat and helped Mom lift her suitcase into the car. They got into the car one by one. That same afternoon, Erica, Jonathan and Mother left for Jakarta without saying goodbye to Eshan.
