Bray's phone injected a thought that consumed my energy. Like Mama, Bray was blatantly disappointed by the decision to revoke the report. They both won't accept Maudy's release from the law. What Maudy did was too sadistic. They said my wounds would cause lifelong disability. He must be punished and not deserve forgiveness. Bray believes Maudy asked to be released not because he was sorry, but because he did not want to account for his actions legally.
Worrying bothers me. Although mama and Bray respect my grandmother's decision and still support my mentality to rise up but I feel this decision is tantamount to betraying the efforts of those who have defended me desperately. This decision hurts the sense of justice. The wound on my face was still wet and painful. So too with my heart. While Maudy was able to laugh freely enjoy the comfort of life that he used to feel. He did not feel any prolonged pain at all and did not care about my pain. Is that fair? Moreover, there is a possibility that I will have to undergo plastic surgery to restore my face as usual.
Aesthetic surgery would likely be my last resort. Right now what I have in mind is trying to discipline following the advice of doctor Natasha so that my wounds heal quickly and can return to normal activities. I took the good side of this incident. Perhaps this is how God asked me to rest and reflect. Maybe yesterday I fell asleep with the praise of the person who said I was beautiful so God gave a warning that proves that beauty is not eternal. Beauty is a gift of God that can be taken by Him at any time and in unexpected ways.
"Sister, look for grandma. Why are you eating there?"
The fussy Fifi suddenly appeared. I think because he was not allowed to participate in the conversation, he went home with Mr. Rodi. Turns out he lingered at the store. Maybe since then he was busy watching Korean drama series relying on wifi shop that can be accessed for free.
"So embarrassed to eat seen people. Brother's face is still like a kuntilanak."
Fifi smiled broadly revealing her rabbit teeth. He pulled the chair right in front of me.
"Listen-heard the bad guy was gonna pay 3 billion for his sister's medical expenses huh?" ask Fifi while whispering. He stretched his neck to get closer to me.
"You're nagging, huh?"
Fifi responded to my words with a naughty smile. ABG this one his thoughts are a bit different from mine. If he starts kepo means there is a certain intent that should be suspected.
"That's a lot of tuh. Plastic surgery, right? She has plastic surgery in Korea. Fifi knows a good clinic subscription artists. Fifi is following. Before the operation we took a walk to Jeju island, continue photos of hanbok clothes in Gyeongbukgung palace and streets to gangnam district."
I bengong. With ease Fifi mentioned the name of tourist destinations in Korea that I do not understand and there was never any desire to visit it. I don't think about plastic surgery because it's the last alternative. Unlike Fifi who since at the clinic doctor Natasha had asked about the possibility of plastic surgery. He thought too far until he had planned plastic surgery as well as a walk in Korea.
"Son doesn't know Jeju Island yet, right?"
I'm nagging. I have never heard the name of the island. The name of the island that is often called the people of my village is the island of Obi, Morotai island, Bacan island, Tidore island and Ternate island. My knowledge is only that. Where have I ever found out about the world's tourist attractions. Local travel is not in my mind.
"Sister mah kudet. Jeju Island was the filming location for the popular Korean drama Our Blues."
Ow. Fifi was very enthusiastic to Jeju Island. It turned out that she was influenced by the Korean drama she was watching. My sister Fifi is a big fan of Korean dramas. Mama often complains because the child is too often asking for money to buy a quota. In addition, if you have seen Fifi do not want to be disturbed. Fifi stayed at home for hours staring at the device for the sake of her favorite Korean drama series. If it has not been finished, he is usually still curious. So, she was very enthusiastic about suggesting I have plastic surgery in Korea. Turns out there's a blatant mode sniffed.
"So, I don't want plastic surgery."
A change of face operation? Scrap bone skull? Hiy. Just hearing it I was horrified. It is also hard to imagine how it feels to have bones scraped. Wonder. There are people who are sick enough to be beautiful.
The culture attached to Korean drama seems to have begun to occupy the heads of most connoisseurs of Korean drama, including Fifi. More and more people are obsessed with plastic surgery to be beautiful. Though in the religion of Islam as far as I can not change something from the original form that has been created by Allah SWT, either add or reduce it to look beautiful. Plastic surgery is only allowed for health reasons or repairing damaged ones to return to their original form.
"If you don't want plastic surgery, that's okay. But we still use the money to make a trip to Korea." Fifi smiled flirtatiously as she blinked one eye.
"No ah. Scratchy." I pushed my five right fingers in front of Fifi's face but she dodged and smiled at me.
"Yes, I don't get it" he said as he stuck out his tongue.
"Some of what grandma asks for reimbursement of the cost of treatment that much if not for plastic surgery. The criminal is in jail. Fifi hates the same people are clearly wrong but whining does not want to be punished. If I meet Fifi, he'll return his face claws. He thinks the rich can do as well as scratch people's faces until they're broken."
I was stunned to hear Fifi's serious comment. The long negotiations contained a trap. I don't know where the calculation is until grandma can decide on that many numbers. Maybe at first the grandmother was just upset to challenge Mayta to think long and then step back and choose to follow the legal procedures that apply. But his prestige and love for his beloved son was too great. The number 3 billion is a self-esteem gamble that must be supported by Mayta for the freedom of his son. Money is not a problem. Maudy can't be miserable in a cell or in jail. Not just for the good name of the family, but because the spoiled child refused to be legally responsible despite being proven guilty.
"Yes already. Then we think about what the money is doing. Big brother came back to the meeting room earlier. Let's get the problem over quickly and we can rest in peace at home." Fifi swung both her hands forward to throw me out to solve our problem as soon as possible
I returned to the room when they had agreed to the contents of the agreement made by the notary. Just waiting for me to sign then everything is considered finished.
There is doubt that covers my heart when I want to etch a signature on the revocation letter of the case file. All eyes are looking at me. I looked up and looked at the mother who shook her head in disapproval. Being concerned that this matter would continue later on mama might bring up my mistake of signing this letter.
Then I turned to the right where Grandma had looked tired. I looked at the eyes of the grandmother whose lens color had faded. If I refuse to sign this letter, he will be ashamed. It's getting stifled. Mayta's grandmother and mother had agreed to the terms of the agreement. I have to accept and accept all the consequences.
I scratched the signature on the file not for money. I honestly still need time to think about this decision. Bray's entry was late. Sorry I didn't involve him in this decision before. At least he knows more about the character of Maudy and his family. Despite all my worries, this is the outcome of the negotiations. I hope good for the future.
This matter must end peacefully. After knowing my family background, maybe Maudy would think a thousand times if she wanted to deal with me. He should have been content to vent anger by making my face so this way. I am aware that I have been much harmed in this case; accused without evidence and persecuted. 3 Billion dollars is not worth the pain of the wounds I felt in a long time.
During the video conference, Maudy and her family apologized. I saw the girl bowing during the online meeting. But all through my vision there was no remorse in his eyes. His face was flat with no expression. He only apologized in cold, unfriendly short sentences.
"Sorry! I won't repeat that deed again."
The apology is really just a formality of completing the terms of the agreement in order to be free from the law. Bray's right. Maudy never regretted her evil deeds to me. After the video conference ended he would laugh with satisfaction at his victory. While I still have to feel the pain of injury, embarrassment and loss of normal activities. Grandma's right. This decision hurts the sense of justice, but maybe I will get a lot of rewards and spaciousness if I sincerely forgive. I will learn to forgive sincerely. Let God determine his karma.
