I'm Not a Cheap Woman

Zionel Cracking

Zionel really can't be banned, the man just took his drink from Alex's hands. He drank the drink again until he was really drunk.

"You're responsible for Lex, you're the one who took me to that nightclub. You made me see that woman." Zionel began to rumble. "He always comes here, here, here, in my room there's always his face. I don't know Lex at all. It's all your fault, Lex."

Alex chuckled amusedly, he could already guess what was going on with Zionel. "All right, I was wrong. I'll take responsibility, so what do you want to do now?"

Zionel let go of his laughter. "Of course you have to take her, I want to make sure what keeps me thinking about her." she said in a drunken voice.

"OK I'll do Mr. Zio, tomorrow we meet him." replied Alex. "It's time for you to sleep now."

"I don't want to close my eyes, Lex, the woman came as I closed my eyes. He's like a ghost, he keeps walking, running, smiling, he's really a ghost."

"Stevani, the beautiful woman, Mr. Zio, is not a ghost."

"Yes yes yes.The woman is indeed beautiful, but she is not a good woman either. A woman like that is not my equal, Lex, but why does she keep bothering me."

Alex could only laugh at Zionel's rapprochement, he immediately helped the man up on his bed.

"Tell him don't come bothering me anymore, if he keeps bothering me, you're the one I'm gonna fire Lex for" Zionel said.

Alex sighed and shook his head. "It's the first time you've kept thinking about a woman Mr. Zio, but I'm not sure you can be with her. President Ma'am will die standing if she finds out her favorite son likes a nightclub working girl. What a poor man." he muttered as he stepped out of Zionel.

Stevani went to the hospital again after returning home from work, he came home late because the number of nightclub guests was not as usual. But no matter how many guests came, he still did not get a solution to his problem. As hard as he tried to accompany them to drink, he still could not do it.

Stevani moved his feet faster towards Zaline's room, slowly opening the door of his sister's room so that no one would be bothered by her arrival. He looked at Yoyoh who was asleep on the sofa. He approached the woman and covered her.

"Sorry mom, I came home late. Bu Yoyoh must be very tired of looking after Zaline. Thank you so much for helping me." Stevani murmured.

He moved from there and approached Zaline who was still asleep as well. He smiled and pulled the blanket higher.

"Smart girl, thank you for staying afloat. I hope you're really ready for your operation tomorrow." whispered Stevani.

Stevani also moved from there, he was tired, his eyes were slipping because he had not slept. He slowly walked out of the room and sat down in the front seat of the room. His eyes slowly dimmed and finally fell asleep in such a sitting position.

Stevani sobbed in his sleep, he had nightmares about Zaline.

"There's no way doc, Zaline's okay, right? You said Zaline would be fine after surgery. No. gabe... Zaline don't leave sister. Brother can't live without you Zaline."

"No...Zalines... Brother please wake up... Zalene..."

"Miss.nona.." a nurse patted him on the shoulder. "Miss wake..."

"Kaline... Where's Zaline?" stevani asked after opening her eyes.

"Miss Zaline is in her room, you seem to be dreaming" the nurse replied.

"Oh my God, I'm sorry, sister."

"It's okay, miss." replied the nurse again and left Stevani.

Stevani sighed, she leaned her head against the wall.

"God, why is the dream scary" Stevani thought.

He immediately went back into the room, staring at the wall clock that was there.

"I've only slept for half an hour, but the dream is real" Stevani thought again.

He approached Zaline, looked at her sister's face and clasped her hands.

"What would I do without you, Zaline? I can't live, I can't survive. Brother please never leave brother." he said as he sobbed.

"Sister.." said Zaline.

Zaline shook her head and looked at Stevani. "Sister crying?"

"Ah no dear, just now sister yawned." Stevani replied lying.

"Why don't you just sleep? Brother just came home? Was last night's work a lot?"

"Sister came home half an hour ago, but brother was late because the club guests were so crowded."

"It must be tiring to be a big brother, I'm sorry Zaline."

"You're starting again, beautiful lady. Doesn't brother always come home late if it's crowded, so this is common baby. Bu Yoyoh is so tired, you don't dare wake him."

"Bu Yoyoh said today he will not go home because he has brought a change of clothes, so just let him sleep longer. But the truth is we've troubled him, Zaline has her own courage here."

"You're right, honey, we've already bothered him. But if we talk about it again, he will be angry and sad. He wants us to think of him as our mother."

Zaline nodded. "We're lucky to have Miss Yoyoh. There's something I want to say to you, but you have to promise not to dump me by returning me to them."

Stevani was surprised by his sister's words. "Whatchu mean? Them? You mean yourfamily? Do you want to tell your sister who you really are?"

"Please promise me, sister." replied Zaline.

Stevani nodded her head. "I promise, I won't make you go back to your family if they're mean to you."

Zaline shook her head. "My family's good, they love me so much."

"If they're good, why don't you want them to know where you are Zaline. Actually what happened 5 years ago, tell Zaline's sister." pinta Stevani.

Zaline's face looked very sad, she had to say everything before she had the surgery. Because he did not want to regret if later he could not survive the operation. Seeing the sadness on Zaline's face, Stevani was very worried.

"Don't tell me baby if you're not ready. You can say it when you get back to health. You have to be calm before the surgery, you don't want to think about something that makes you sad" Stevani said.

"I don't want to regret that I won't be able to wake up" Zaline replied.

Stevani woke up from her seat. "If you say that again, then don't ever see big brother again Zaline. Better brother die before anything happens to you. You said as if you did not want to be with your sister anymore" he said as he sobbed.

Bu Yoyoh woke up after hearing the commotion. "What's the matter?" abugn.

Stevani and Zaline stared at Ms. Yoyoh at the same time. Bu Yoyoh went from there to approach them. The middle-aged woman looked at Stevani who was crying.

"What's up with Vani? Why?" ask Yoyoh again.

"I don't want to talk to you anymore Zaline" Stevani said as she ran outside.

"Neng.." call Miss Yoyoh.

"Sister.." call Zaline sad.

Bu Yoyoh looked at Zaline. "What's up with Zaline? Why does Neng Vani look so sad?"

"It's Zaline ma'am's fault, ma'am please talk to sister. Say Zaline's sorry, Zaline won't talk like that again. Please mom.." pinta Zaline crying.

"Oh Allah. Neng Zaline calm down, yes, I'll talk to Neng Vani."

Zaline nodded her head. Bu Yoyoh immediately left Zaline to speak to Stevani.
