Early in the morning right in front of Keyla's house was parked a shiny white car. From the car, a middle-aged woman came down with a branded bag in her hand. That woman is Monica, Keyla's stepmother. That day he accidentally came to meet Keyla because there was something important that he wanted to convey to Keyla.
Tok to tok.
Keyla who was combing her hair in front of the mirror to get ready for work, stopped her activities. He heard a knock on the door from outside.
"Who came this early? Is Cindy here yet? Why did it come so fast?" keyla asked in confusion and put her comb on the bed and then went ahead to see who had come.
Keyla opened the door without first checking who was coming to his house. When he opened the door, he was surprised to see that his mother was right in front of him.
"Mama? Do you know where Keyla lives?" asked Keyla who was still surprised.
"Have you forgotten how to be polite with your parents until you didn't let Mama into the house?" satirical Monica who felt unappreciated by Keyla.
"Sorry, Ma. Keyla didn't mean that. Come on in, Ma," take Keyla to her stepmother.
Monica went inside and looked at Keyla's house. Of course in that house there was no such luxurious furniture in their house. How to want a lot of luxury furniture, the house alone feels very narrow for Monica, especially if added with a lot of goods. Let alone fancy furniture, TV alone does not exist.
"So, you're willing to leave home to occupy a house this small, Key?" sat down while sitting on the sofa.
"Ma, the house is small, but Keyla's heart feels spacious and comfortable living here" Keyla replied honestly.
"Now you can say that, but look at it later. You won't feel at home in a house this narrow," said Monica who made Keyla sigh heavily.
"Yes, Ma. It's still morning. Key did not argue. Oh yeah, so where do you know Key lives here?" keyla asked to shift their discussion.
"From Hendry," Monica answered honestly.
"Mama still communicates with him a lot? Still hoping Keyla will marry him? Yes, Ma?" ask Keyla.
"He's the best choice for you!" said Monica.
"But Key is married, Ma. Key is married. Please Mama stop our matchmaking! Until whenever Key will not want to marry the same man who likes to play women like Hendry. Key is not, Ma!" push Keyla down.
Monica stood up straight from her seat. He was upset to hear Keyla's rejection.
"Do you know? Papa you are now falling ill at the thought of his near-bankrupt company! No more new projects in your Papa company. Your father got sick from it. And actually Mama's just here to tell you about it" Monica said.
Keyla was shocked and sad to hear that her father was sick. He stood up and approached his mother.
"What pain does it hurt, Ma? Has Papa been sick for a long time? Why doesn't Keyla know?" asked Keyla worriedly.
"You think for yourself how do Mama ngabarin you if you change hp number! We also do not know where you live after getting married to the courier," Monica replied still with her scathing words.
"Key's sorry, Ma. So, is Papa being treated at home? Or in the hospital? What pain does Papa have, Ma?" ask Keyla again.
"Your father is being treated at home. If you want to know what your father is sick, just come home alone! You remember the way home, right?" syndicated Monica.
Keyla. It feels heavy to want to go back to his home, especially when Shaka is not there. But he was also very worried about his father.
"Later Key will come home, Ma," Keyla replied slowly.
"Goodoo. If you still remember the services of parents, go home and see your father. Mama came home first" said Monica and left Keyla.
What kind of life is Keyla living now? Does she want to be like those mothers? Everywhere wear such a negligee. Hahhh, may Keyla quickly wake up and return home soon. Bump Monica in your heart and get in the car and leave the place.

Meanwhile at a company in another city, the man Keyla is looking for today officially replaces his father managing the company. It was Arshaka Mahendra. The only son of Arif Mahendra and Juwita.
Arshaka or often called Arsha by his family has long been asked by his father to continue his family company. But he continued to refuse because he felt no interest at all with the business world. Though all this time he was also involved in helping his father, only he did not want to be bound forever in the business world that he thought was boring.
Arshaka prefers the automotive world. He used to love changing cars that cost fantastic. Initially the father agreed that Arshaka really wanted to pursue the automotive world and expand their business in that field. But alas, Arshaka refused. He did not want to do business, but became a car racer. Of course, his desire was strongly opposed by his father. In addition, Arshaka used to be very wasteful and often squandered money just to modify the car or buy a new car. That is why the father decided to act decisively to his son. Arshaka leaves home and begins his new life as a courier.
The first person to help Arshaka get a job was Bang John. Someone he accidentally helped when Bang John's motorbike was damaged in the middle of the road. From there they knew each other until finally Arshaka was offered to work as a delivery courier goods by Bang John.
Tok to tok.
Arshaka's office door is knocked. Then Nicko entered with some files in his hand.
"Welcome back, Mr. Arshaka Mahendra," Nicko said with a smile.
"Don't do much ado! What the hell are you here for?" asked Arshaka who was lazy to respond to the behavior of his assistant.
Nicko also gave some files to Arshaka. He put it on the desk.
"That's some paperwork you have to sign. There's also some material for today's meeting, sir. I sent a soft copy via email" replied Nicko.
"I've only been working one day, you've given me this much work" Arshaka lamented. But his hand still took the documents there and read them.
"Why is he still here? Is there anything else?" ask Arshaka who saw Nicko not moving in his place.
"There really is, sir. This is Miss Keyla's problem, not the company's" Nicko said.
"Tell me what's going on?!" asked Arshaka who was immediately serious when he heard the name of his wife called.
"So morning I got a report that Miss Keyla's mother came to the house to see Miss Keyla. But I don't know what they're talking about. He only came for a short while and went home alone without Miss Keyla," replied Nicko according to the information he got.
"Tumben once the woman was looking for Keyla. There must be something he wants. Anyhow does she know Keyla lives there?"
"That's also I don't know, sir. But I'll keep an eye on Miss Keyla."
"Yes. Keep an eye on my wife! Don't let him do anything! I'm sure this must have something to do with Hendry. Keyla's mother must know Hendry's address to the house."
"Miss Keyla's mother means Master's in-law, right?" ask Nicko suddenly.
"Don't interfere!" ketus Arshaka's. "Have gone back to your room! Don't forget to keep an eye on Keyla."
"Okay, sir," said Nicko, laughing. Then he came out of the room.
Arshaka leaned back and looked back at Keyla's photo on her phone. She is convinced that Keyla and Hendry's stepmother have plans to bring Keyla back to her home.
"Prophey yes, Key. In a moment, I'll definitely get you."
Seriate...
