PHD (21)



Aurel goes to the police station to meet his father. It wasn't actually a prisoner's clock, but the police on duty that night felt sorry for Aurel, so the policeman let Aurel talk. But it was not Aditya who was taken out, but Aurel who was brought into the cell. Aurel stands in front of the cell where Aditya is being held. Aurel saw that inside the cell, there were some prisoners.


"Why are you here all those nights, baby?" ask Aditya.


"Pa, why did Papa transfer the company and all of Papa's property to Uncle Edi. You know, Uncle Edi wanted to take all of Papa's property?" ask Aurel.


"Papa didn't do that, honey. Papa also does not know why it can be so," said Aditya.


"So they fooled Papa. Papa rest assured then, Aurel will try to take the paper and report it to the police. Aurel came home first, Papa take care of health," said Aurel. Then he went home.

"Yes, Bi," Aurel replied obediently.


"It's there!" olivia.


Fariz stared at Aurel's departure with a smile. Fariz was enchanted by Aurel's beauty, unknowingly Fariz muttered.


"Pretty."


"Thank you" replied Olivia. He thought Fariz was praising him.


Fariz smiled amusedly at the misunderstood Olivia. Fariz, a nineteen-year-old who had just enrolled in a private university. Initially Fariz attended college in Malang, because Fariz was a smart student, eventually he got a scholarship to study in Jakarta. Having no place to live, Fariz's parents leave Fariz to Olivia.


"Tante, can Fariz see the backyard?" ask Fariz.


"By dong, baby. You just rest at home, Auntie has a lunch appointment with om at the office. If you want to eat, you ask Aurel to make it" said Olivia.


"Yes, Tan."


Olivia left in a black sedan. Fariz goes to the kitchen to find Aurel. Fariz wants to meet Aurel.


Aurel finished brewing the tea and turned around about to take it to the living room, but Fariz who suddenly came, made Aurel startled and hit Fariz's body.


*bruk.


Aurel crashed into Fariz and the tea he was carrying, fell down and the tea water splashed the chest of Fariz's field.


"Ouch! it's hot, it's hot" said Fariz flicking the black shirt he wore.


"I'm sorry, I didn't intentionally. Sorry ...." Aurel picked up a washcloth and wiped Fariz's shirt.


Fariz looked at Aurel's face, who was seriously wiping off Fariz's wet clothes, spilled with tea water. Aurel raised his face and their eyes clashed. Fariz was mesmerized staring at both her beautiful eyes and thin lips in natural pink. Aurel felt uneasy with Fariz's gaze, he retreated and apologized again.


Aurel moved all her belongings, to the room she used to store Aditya's belongings. Aurel would sleep with the items piled up in the room, while the former Triana room he occupied would be used by Fariz.

The Lanzi house.


Sunday is the day Tri used to work out, with five-year-old Daren and Lanzi. But today, from the moment she woke up, Triana kept vomiting. Lanzi takes Triana to the doctor but Triana doesn't want to.


"Darling, didn't you hear me? I said, let's go to the doctor!" lanzi.


"No, Mom. Don't force me!" triana said slightly snapping at Lanzi.


"I'm just worried about you, because you keep throwing up" replied Lanzi who was upset that Triana was yelling at him. Lanzi left Triana in the room, Lanzi went for a morning run on her own without Triana and Daren.


***


The Aditya house.


Aurel finished cleaning up the room for Fariz, as he was about to get out of the room, Fariz confronted him in the middle of the door. Aurel looked at Fariz in annoyance.


"Why is all your homework done?" ask Fariz.


"Because there are no helpers" Aurel replied briefly. Aurel was about to get out but Fariz held him back instead.


"Great jutek. Acquaintance dong, I'm Fariz. Your name is Aurel, right?" ask Fariz.


"If you know, why ask? Move aside! I have a lot of work" Aurel said, pushing Fariz's body away from the door.


"I like fierce girls" Fariz said with a smile.


"I don't care!" Aurel left the house. Aurel used to shop on Sundays. Aurel shopping needs kitchen for a week.


Since Aditya was imprisoned and sentenced to ten years in prison, Edi, his uncle took over all of Aditya's wealth. Olivia fired Bi Onah for always helping Aurel. Aurel becomes a maid in her own home. Aurel tried to find the power of attorney that his uncle had once shown, but for two years, Aurel did not find it.


Aurel can only surrender and be patient waiting for his father to come out of prison and take back their home. Aurel does not care about the company and the other treasures, but the house they occupy is a house full of memories of Felicia, Aurel's mother. Aurel will hold out for the house.


Aurel went to the modern market on his old bicycle. On the way, he runs into Lanzi. Lanzi knew the passing girl and called out to her.


"Aurel," call Lanzi.


Aurel stopped his bike and looked back and smiled.


"Om" said Aurel. Aurel approached Lanzi. They greeted each other and asked for news. Aurel hid her condition at home. Aurel was worried that Lanzi would tell Triana.


After a long conversation, Aurel said goodbye to Lanzi and Lanzi continued to run the next morning. From a distance there were Lanzi's neighbors who saw him, he misunderstood Lanzi and Aurel. The neighbor photographed Lanzi talking to Aurel earlier. The woman of Triana's age lives next to Leonard's house.


"Hem, Miss Triana is so proud to have a devoted husband. Faithful what? Loyal times like that. Seduce young girl of teen years. It must be because I'm bored with the ones at home. It's a pity that the girl is invisible" muttered the neighboring woman Lanzi while looking at a photo of Lanzi and Aurel. Aurel only looks at the back, his face is not visible in the photo. The woman continued her move towards the same modern market, with which Aurel was heading.
