"Sir, the bus is coming!" yelled Jagat as he waved at Kinanti who was buying some snacks for them on the way.
The girl immediately paid for the snacks before running small while dragging her suitcase.
"Quick, Ma'am!" yell at the Jagat once again.
"Brewle! The bus isn't going anywhere either!" yang Kinanti replied to the word Jagat.
Now they are in the Bus Terminal and will leave for Jakarta. Yesterday Callista called Kinanti and asked the two to spend the weekend there. The girl also told them to stay with her, as it was impossible to stay at Anya and Axton's house, which had only one room.
After making sure their luggage was safe in the trunk, Kinanti and Jagat got into the bus and secured themselves there.
Callista who knew that they would travel long distances using the bus had forced to buy airline tickets to shorten the time, but Kinanti refused. He reasoned to want to enjoy this trip, because they have not traveled far by bus.
After the passengers boarded, the bus left shortly after.
"Mbak Anya must be surprised," said Jagat while smiling amusedly imagining how surprised the look of the Brother knowing they came there without telling him.

It has been almost half an hour Axton arrived back to the apartment, but did not get out of the car. The man was closing his eyes while occasionally banging his head against the back of the chair.
A phone call from Bi Rahmi who reported that Anya had realized made her heart hesitant. Should he come down from there and meet Anya? What if the woman suddenly screamed hysterically at him?
What answer would he give Bi Rahmi if the middle-aged woman asked why Anya reacted so?
Drrt.. Drrt..
Drrt.. Drrt..
Axton's phone is back.
Axton opened his eyes and looked at the phone screen.
The man snorted angrily at the sight of a name on the phone screen. The name of someone he doesn't want to meet first for now.
Who else if not Hana? This is the fifth time Hana has tried to call. Not to forget, he has also sent a short message to his phone many times.
Axton knows, Hana will not stop before Axton responds, so, although reluctant Axton finally picked up Hana's phone call.
"Darling, why wasn't my message read? Why isn't my phone picking up? Why ignore me?" ask Hana streak. It was obvious from his tone that he was upset.
"I'm busy." Axton answered briefly.
"I know your schedule, honey. Today you're coming home to my apartment, right?" ask Hana again.
"Not knowing." Axton answered coldly. I don't know why hearing Hana's voice is so sweet in her ears.
"What doesn't know? Anyway, you should go home. Vi*****sec*** just released the latest lingerie, I bought it and wanted to show it to you," said Hana, her voice turned more sensual.
"I don't know."
Hearing Axton's flat tone of voice then made Hana scream in anger. The woman felt as if Axton had been showing it some time, when they should have been able to return to how they used to after knowing Anya's depravity.
"Don't mention the girl's name." Axton warns Hana, as the woman blames Anya for Axton's current attitude towards her.
"Why really? Isn't that all true?" ask Hana.
"Are you really having an affair with her ex-boyfriend?" Axton had no idea that the woman was now smiling triumphantly.
Hannah doesn't want to stop. He was trying to provoke Axton. "I told you she's not a good girl. You should divorce her– immediately"
"Shut up!" Axton rebukes Hana.
Hana shook for a moment, surprised by Axton's attitude that even rebuked her.
"Hey, jal***that's the one who betrayed behind you, why did I get the gum!" Hana half yelled. He is heartbroken to hear Axton yell at him, only for the unlucky woman who has ruined his dream of becoming the daughter-in-law of the Caldwell family.
"Shut up, Hana! For now I don't want to hear anything from you!" siss Axton.
Before hanging up the phone Axton again said coldly to Hana, "if it wasn't for you, Anya wouldn't be like this!" then slammed his phone into the back seat.
"Bang***! Bang***!" as strong as his man's might hit his wheel while cursing violently!

"Alhamdulillah," muttered Bi Rahmi full of relief when she saw the thermometer in her hand showing the number 36.4°c.
"I want to sleep in the lower room, Bi," Anya asked in a weak voice. The girl's lips and fingertips were no longer turning blue.
"Don't, ma'am, just stay here, not even under the room, ma'am." Bi Rahmi held back Anya who tried to get out of bed. The middle-aged woman forced Anya to remain lying down.
After making sure Anya was back lying down, Bi Rahmi then rushed to get a bowl of porridge in the kitchen and fed Anya.

Amsterdam, Dutch.
Maxim changed his sleeping position again. He turned his back to his wife while hugging his roll, but again his eyes were not also closed.
He was already very sleepy, but his brain could not stop thinking.
Theresa opened her eyes again, seeing the husband who was now sitting leaning on the head of the bed.
"Why else, Pa? Can't really sleep?" ask Theresa. The woman yawned, this was the third time she woke up from her sleep.
Maxim nodded, saying that his feelings were extremely agitated. At first he thought about both his son and daughter-in-law all night to make him unable to close his eyes.
The man's heart was more and more unsettled when none of them answered his phone call, when it should have been in the morning.
"Busy, Pa, surely Callista has left for the office and Axton is filming. Anya is also not the person who will take her phone everywhere" said Theresa, calming the husband.
"Would Papa go back to sleep, they'd call back. Or we can call them later."
Maxim approved the wife's words. True, they must be busy with their respective activities. He should not think of bad things, which will only add to the burden of his mind.
Theresa helps Maxim break down and envelop her husband. The woman tied her hands to the man's arm and prepared to go back to sleep.
"Ma?" call Maxim. Theresa looked at the husband's face, a sign that he was responding to his call.
"Do you still not like Anya?" ask the man.
Theresa stopped her activities. "Why suddenly ask like that?" the woman asked back.
"No. I just want to see your togetherness the way it used to be. Seeing your attitude towards Anya all this time changed, made me regret my decision to marry them a little." Maxim said at length.
Theresa took off her hand link and sat down. His brown Netra glanced at Maxim at a glance before turning him the other way.
Theresa was aware of her attitude all along to Anya. He did not want the girl to be his daughter-in-law. Back when Maxim expressed his intention to find Anya and would marry the girl to Axton, Theresa was against him.
He knows his family owes a lot to the Handoko family, but that does not mean Maxim can arbitrarily decide what steps are taken to repay their kindness.
Axton is his proud son. Since long ago, Theresa was the one who always set how the lives of her two children should run, especially Axton who she hoped could be the successor to the Caldwell family company later.
But the hope must be dashed immediately when Axton loudly refused and instead threw the responsibility on the sister, then chose to plunge into the world of entertainment.
Therefore, at least he wants Axton to have a wife from the right family according to him.
And Anya was no longer the special girl in her eyes after the departure of Sigit and Ratna. She was just an ordinary orphan girl. She has no achievements whatsoever in school after living with Miss Rastini. His relationship with the Eagle was never even okay. She is not a girl who works in an office. Too many things make Anya look very inappropriate with Axton in Theresa's eyes.
However, he must give up again when Maxim reviewed the sacrifice of Anya five years ago on their son, Axton. That's what makes Theresa so hate Anya. He suspects Anya deliberately did that to lock Axton in order to restore his life as it used to be. Girls who are initially accustomed to living with a treasure are not impossible to miss these things.
But his heart was a little shaky when Anya confidently invited him to have a conversation two days before his departure from Indonesia. The woman even cried when Anya returned the Dream Cathcer her gift years ago. He never thought Anya would keep it for so long.
Theresa exhaled once. "I slept first huh, Pa?" without waiting for the husband's response, Theresa threw herself down, turned her back and closed her eyes.
Maxim smile. He knew very well the wife did not completely hate Anya.
