Home For My Soul

131|My turn Scolded

“A-what are you doing here?” tanyanya nervous. He immediately stood up from his bed.

“For the size of a loser, your room may as well.” I look around me. Unlike my guess, the room was pretty neat for men. Everything was in place, just a messy table with books strewn about.

“I didn't touch your girlfriend, why did you come here?” he asked again, trying to talk normally. I could hear the fear in his voice.

“Who told you to do it?” I also stopped talking.

“Whole what?” He laughed nervously. “Do not talk carelessly.”

“Amarilis is not your type. Don't waste my time. Who told you to approach him?” I glanced at my bodyguard, so he gave me the envelope he had been holding. “Sama as you did to my woman. I will also spread your past if you are not honest.”

He was wrong if he thought only he could figure out the shameful thing Amarylis had hidden from everyone. I can also reply to the same thing. My woman is just ashamed of her old body. Instead, this man had committed a crime by deceiving many people.

No need to threaten much, he also admitted. I had expected all of this to have something to do with him, but upon hearing his name, I admit I was shocked. He's willing to risk his family's good name for me. What have I done until she loves me?

Could it be that something happened to their family company that they needed me? No. gabe. Thats impossible. I've checked everything and there's no blame in their business. Then of the many other more successful men in this country, why did he choose me?

Not to mention Amarilis' former friends, adding work only. Two short years why do we have to face such a weird romance problem? We just want to go to college, then go back to our country to work there. We have no interest in finding a new boyfriend.

But Nora I'll take care of it later. He doesn't know I already know how he feels about me. I'd better wait for his next plan so he thinks Amarylis is still keeping his secret. If he comes alone and confesses his feelings, then I can act.

“Make sure your colleagues take good care of Amaryllis as long as I'm not around. Keep a distance as he performs outside activities and instantly executes anyone who approaches him. No need to wait until he is attacked. I don't want anyone to touch it one bit.”

We were in a special car for them. The car I rented while we were here. Much more practical than buying a car just to use for three years. We will soon arrive at the building where we live.

“Good, Sir. What about my colleague's request in Indonesia?” tanyakanya.

“He is free to do whatever he wants as long as we are here.”

Graduation was getting closer, I started packing the clothes I would need. My family only stayed two nights because Matt had to get back to college. He was busy working on his script. What good news, because I can be with Amaryllis again.

Just one thing I forgot. A person who appears at the door without first telling him he is coming. Amarylis looked at her face through the CCTV screen and was suspicious because I told her to hide in the room while I was welcoming guests.

“Hai, Theo!” He opened his arms wide, intending to embrace me. But he took hold of the air, for I avoided him. “Why are you still shy? No one will protest seeing us cuddle.”

“Why can you be here?” I asked, not to mince words.

“Gue wants to handle surprises. Hows it? Lo happy I came here?” he said cheerfully. He glanced towards the lobby. “This place is very quiet. It's worth choosing to stay here.”

“Come back to hotel. I'll catch up after finishing up some affairs.” I saw a taxi waiting in front.

“Then, I say goodbye to the taxi driver. I just want to.” He turned around, intending to approach his ride.

“Gue will follow,”. “Lo back to hotel first.”

“Why are you so cold with me? I mean well want to go to the hotel with lo.” He put on a clear face, but I was not full.

I waited until he got to the cab and made sure he wouldn't come back, and then I went into the lobby. Very inconvenient. Why didn't Mama tell me she was coming too? I really hate surprises like this. I hope no other surprises await.

I rubbed my chest, calming my heart. Instead of waiting in her room, she was here. But I can't scold him, seeing him ready to explode at any moment. I approached the elevator and waited for the door to open.

“A very beautiful woman.” Amaryllis stood by my side. “From her clothes, bags, and shoes, she is definitely not an ordinary woman. Meet where?”

“We talk inside.” I cleared my throat slowly.

“We're talking now,” his insistence. “Who was that woman? Why is he so happy to see you? Wear the hugs of everything. You dodge too, he remains flirtatious.”

I just kept quiet, didn't give any answers. The door opened, I rushed in. Amaryllis followed me with eyes that kept piercing me sharply. I really was fucking. After a few days of complaining about her closeness to another man, she chose to come today to show herself.

“She is my fiancee.” I was prepared to wait for Amaryllis' reaction.

We sat together on the front sofa. Since she did not respond, I turned to her. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. Okay. I have to be ready for his anger.

“When is the plan you will tell me about him?” ask him calmly.

“ Never will be. I never thought he existed.” I lifted both my shoulders.

“If you don't want to marry the woman of your mother's choice, why did you put an engagement ring on her finger?”

“Gue doesn't install anything. It was a declaration between two parents only. Therefore, our engagement is not smelled media.”

Unlike my engagement to Chika, Papa and Mama did not announce in front of the press, only between the two parents. I didn't even attend. Suddenly the family was diligently invited to the house or eat together at the restaurant, according to Matt's report.

He who suffered the most had to participate in our parents' second scenario. I was here when they got closer to each other. I know the woman, because we sometimes meet at events held by both families, the daughter of one of Papa's business partners.

“Why didn't you honestly say that from the start? We agreed there was no secret, Theo.”

“My wife candidates are only one. Lo person. Grandma's inheritance ring I never asked for back, because I'm only going to marry lo.”

“So, you want us to get married before we go home, because of her?”

“Because Mama would never approve my choice. So, I have to marry you before they force me to marry another woman.”

“I don't like the idea, Theo. You shouldn't be against your parents.”

“Gue knew you would say this, so I kept the engagement a secret. I don't want to hear any pessimistic words from you. Believe me the same. Everything will be fine.”

“How will everything be okay? You will be at the hotel for two nights with your family and fiancee.” He stood up and immediately entered his room.

We've been joking since we woke up this morning. Because of that woman, I had to leave without Amarylis's smile. He didn't come out of his room, so I went to see him. But whatever I say, he's not persuaded.

“Lo don't do this. I always take care of myself.” I stood in the doorway, unwilling to interrupt, watching him lie on my back. “Until the day after.”

Mom hugged me as soon as she saw me coming. Papa shook my hand, while Matt smiled ignorantly. He must have guessed Amarylis' response to Venny's arrival. I didn't calm down thinking my woman was heartbroken.

We agreed that only the family came, and there were other families who had no ties with us. What did Mama plan to do with all this?
