Lovers Payment

Scandals

The eyelids frowned in the sunlight that entered through the glass window. Naina can't remember how she ended up falling asleep on the floor so scared of her last night.

Ting! Ting!

The sound of cell phone notifications teased him, he immediately looked for the flat object that turned out to be covered in a blanket on his mattress.

Quickly he shifted and read the incoming message, one from Andre. One more daily local news notification.

He prefers to read the latest news today, there it is written.

(Three o'clock in the morning, week 12 June 20××, found a body of a woman with the initials "N" in the rebuilding area on Jl. Cipto Gang's. Thorny. The victim is thought to have been killed using a blunt object, ..).

Naina covered her mouth with a palm, unable to continue reading. The same initials with his name made him shudder in horror.

The redevelopment location is not far from here, how can he calmly live his day again? Naina bit her lips, fear enveloped.

'What could be last night's shadow?' inner Naina fretted.

Soon he opened a message from Andre, which turned out there were also many missed calls from him.

[Naina, are you asleep?]

[Don't stay up late, get some rest.]

[Naina, are you okay? I read on the news there was a murder in your neighborhood.]

Tong Ting!

Naina's house bell suddenly rang, the girl inched backwards, covering the entire body with a blanket. 'Who?' the batteries.

"What if the killer? It's still six in the morning, where could there be a guest this early?" mumbling Naina alone.

Tong!

The bell rang again, Naina did not dare to move. His entire body trembled, his breathing increasingly hunting. How'this? Oh gosh! Inner Naina screamed.

Brak! Brak!

Door broke. He seems to be getting impatient. The girl tried to find Andre's number, but as her hands continued to tremble, the flat object dropped to the floor on the side of the bed.

The screen broke and died. Naina snorted in annoyance, why should it be at a time like this? Bati's fidgeting.

Suddenly silent, no more pounding on the door, Naina sighed, trying to stay calm.

Nah! Nah!

Naina jumped, now the window is tapped. Samar, he heard someone calling him.

"Yes! Naina!"

"You're inside?"

"Andre!" exclaim Naina while breaking the curtains.

The panicked face of Andre appeared, the man looked dull, but a second later it turned to relief as the girl he was looking for finally appeared.

Previously Naina did not think if it was Andre, she was too scared and confined by her own imagination. This makes him unable to think clearly.

As soon as Naina opened the door, Andre walked in and sat in the living room. A glass of water was served which was immediately drunk by the man.

"You scared me" Naina spoke.

"You can't be contacted, I'm afraid something's going on."

"Sorry, since I just woke up, didn't know you were texting and calling before" Naina said.

"Thank God you're okay."

You know about the murders near here?" ask Naina.

"That sounds terrible."

"Be careful, you'd better move on, Nai."

"Moved? I can't, Ndre. This is the house I bought with my own sweat. Many memories here" said Naina, looking lethargic.

Andre was speechless, looking at the face of the girl he was secretly starting to like. Looks beautiful even without make up.

"You haven't had breakfast, have you? Let's eat outside," asked Andre to try to shift the girl's worries.

"All right, I'll take a shower first. Can you wait on the front porch?"

"certain."

Andre stepped out, sitting on the terrace chair with his head against the wall. He sighed, feeling tired from not being able to sleep well last night.

Before long Naina was ready, her face looked fresher than before. The girl smiled, making Andre flower.

Cars drove through the densely packed city streets, they chose Asian's Food's restaurant for breakfast.The place where they met again after a long time.

After breakfast, Andre invites Naina to play to his family's office, as well as work. He's been promising his mother to help here for a week.

Naina asks permission to go around looking at the atmosphere while Andre is working. He wanted to see a rooftop that he said had lots of plants and flowers.

However, when the elevator door opened, the girl was shocked. He forgot that Abbas was Andre's brother. Of course his sister works here.

"Not in, brother?" abbas asked with a thin grin.

Sis?" ask Naina gawking.

"Now is the road with my brother, or do I want to call 'Honey'? You don't forget, right" Abbas's hiss was full of emphasis.

Naina feels awkward, but if she does not enter it is the same as showing that she lost, reluctantly the girl steps in.

The elevator goes up, Abbas keeps his eyes on Naina until it makes her feel uncomfortable. To be honest, the girl regretted knowing Abbas who was a bit of a jerk.

"Don't you miss me, brother?" abbas asked to start his habit. Seductively.

"You!"

"Shhh! Brother Naina, dear. Here there is a cctv loh," said Abbas groaning mischievously.

Naina immediately removed Abbas's index finger from her lips, disgusted and upset. The girl was astonished, how could one descendant but be so opposite.

Her brother was so polite and kind, while her younger brother looked a jerk and a gnarly. Naina shifted closer to the iron wall, keeping a safe distance from the rancid.

The elevator stopped on the sixth floor and opened. Abbas stepped out and smiled, teasing Naina, the girl grieved and immediately closed the door.

Arriving at the rooftop, Naina immediately stepped towards one of the benches there. Lonely and cold. The perfect combination to calm the mind that is in a state of anxiety.

There is no one on top of this, as working hours are still going on. It will be very crowded during the break. Thought Naina.

Lots of kinds of flowers planted, there are orchids, red roses, white and yellow. There are also camellias, which are beautiful. Naina recalled the time when her late mother taught her to spell her name as a child.

At that time Naina was only four years old, talking was still a mess, but the mother taught her painstakingly.

"Naina Princess Camelia, let's try to follow the mother" said the mother at the time

"Na-na Pu-te-li Ca-ma-ia."

Naina smiled to herself remembering the memories with her mother, even she was never scolded at that time. His mother laughed and was happy.

Suddenly Naina felt goosebumps, as if a pair of eyes were watching her. The girl turned towards the entrance as fast as lightning.

"Who's in there!?" exclaim Naina was-was.

Silent. There's no one.
