Ken sat at the Cafe table, waiting for the arrival of the Wolf. It has been almost 15 minutes he waited but the awaited has not come.
"Hey, are you coming or not?" a message from Ken was sent.
"Sorry Ken, I'll be late" Jessica replied.
"How much longer do I have to wait for you?" Ken took a deep breath trying to hold back his sense of regret.
"in 15 minutes I'll be there." Jessica gave her certainty.
If it wasn't for that Spoiled Girl, I wouldn't have waited long, like this.
Jessica rushes to get the keys to her bike and breaks the traffic. He didn't think Ken would wait for him. All he knows is that Ken's not the one who likes to wait like this.
"Where is that guy?" Jessica rolled her eyes, looking for Ken in every corner of the room.
"I'm sorry, Mom, I made an appointment with Mr. Ken" Jessica told a waiter.
"Let me take it." The waiter walked in front of Jessica towards a special room.
"Please come in, Mr. Ken is waiting for you." The waiter opened the door and bowed his head respectfully, then left Jessica who had entered the room.
"What do you want to talk about?" Jessica sat down and spoke directly to the main point.
"Drink first, I'll say it after you drink." Ken looked at Jessica with a warm look.
The female wolf is still the female Wolf, it will not change apparently.
Jessica opened the mineral water bottle and drank it up to half.
"Say!" Jessica looked at Ken with her sharp gaze.
"All right, I just wanted to offer you a job. Yes, even if you want to," said Ken with a bit of hesitation.
"What job?" Jessica started to talk casually.
"Bodyguard as well as the personal driver of Mr. Aldy's brother." Ken hopes Jessica won't be scolding him now.
Accept the Wolf, please, don't complicate my work.
Jessica thought for a moment. Mr. Aldy is not a random person, so he also does not want to carelessly accept this job and his sister, no one knows what his sister is like. He has never spoken publicly about his family.
"Explain what his duties are?" jessica asked Ken for an explanation.
"Simple, take Kamila to campus and protect her from danger" Ken explained, smiling.
So her sister's name is Kamila, okay sweet name. Inner Jessica.
"One more thing, you can stay at Mr. Aldy's house." Ken swallowed his own saliva, afraid that Jessica would misunderstand him.
Yeah, I need money to stay alive and I need a proper shelter, too. But, what about my students' children as well as Master's? Do I have to take them off. Inner Jessica.
All this time Jessica spent her time in the martial arts scene, pouring her abilities there. The salary received was not much, but he was happy with the activity. At least, he could forget all the problems of his life when he was there.
"How, Jess?" ask Ken seriously.
"I think you have a certain reason why you chose me for this job" Jessica said. Given that Ken is very thorough in doing his work, let alone this is a direct relationship with his Young Master.
"Because only you are qualified to be Kamila's Bodyguard and..." Ken wanted to continue speaking but was immediately stopped by Jessica's words.
"You know what I'm like, so just tell me straight to the point!" jessica said because she did not want to long convoluted about the reason.
"Tomorrow I'll send you to meet Aldy and Kamila. And you can pack your things from now on." A sense of relief flowed throughout Ken's body. Although Jessica did not tell if she accepted Ken's offer, Ken quite understood Jessica's style of language that might be difficult for others to understand.
Jessica did not answer anything, but Ken could see there was a slight smile line on her lips.
Just a little smile makes you look different, Female Wolf.
Jessica let Ken look at her like that, although she honestly wanted to take the garfu and gouge out Ken's eyeballs.
...________...
Ken drives his car to the Company, smiling at first glance when he remembers Jessica's annoyed face.
"What, why are you looking at me like that?" jessica asked with a sharp look.
"No, I'm not staring at you. I just stared at the rampaging Female Wolf, " Ken replied and laughed with satisfaction at Jessica's red face in anger.
All right, I'm gonna let you laugh now, because you've given me a job that's gonna change my life. Inner Jessica.
Jessica did not answer Ken's words, she enjoyed the food in front of her, not caring about Ken's warm gaze.
Ken's car has entered the parking area, he got out of the car while carrying some important files that must be signed Aldy and also Information about Jessica that he had summarized before.
Ken's cheerful face instantly changed after entering the company, his face looked cold and his eyes were extremely sharp and deadly.
"Hi, Bro," Ken said to Aldy and sat down next to him, Ken placed the important files on Aldy's desk and handed him some sheets of paper containing complete information about Jessica.
"Read on! if you don't agree, I'll look for another." Ken berated himself until Aldy disagreed with his choice.
"You know him?" Aldy glanced at Ken at a glance then looked back at the few sheets of paper in his hand.
"Me and him used to be in college" Ken replied honestly.
"You tell me, my eyes are lazy to read." Aldy put the papers on the table. He started laughing when he saw Ken's annoyed face.
"Khemm..." Ken took a deep breath and muffled his sense of unease.
"He was the only child of a harmonious family but it all ended when his Mother and Father died in an accident." The tightness approached Ken, he took a breath and continued the story.
"She was taken care of by her Uncle and Aunt, but the two of them had no good intentions. They're just after Jessica's estate, they're forcing Jessica to sell the house and the car for living costs." Ken was silent for a moment.
"At that time, Jessica was still in a state of slump, so she did whatever her Uncle and Aunt asked her to do without the slightest suspicion. They treated Jessica well until she turned 18. After that, everything changed, they dumped Jessica and didn't even recognize her as their niece" Ken explained.
Aldy just silently listened to what Ken said, Ken took a deep breath again.
"Jessica has been active in the field of martial arts since her parents were alive, even until now she spends all her time teaching there."
"After being dumped by his Uncle and Aunt, he stayed in a contract belonging to our martial arts teacher. He was carrying only one precious object that might no longer exist, right now," Ken replied and took another breath.
"A necklace with diamonds and gold, maybe Jessica has sold it to survive in this city" continued Ken.
Short of coming to Aldy's chest when he heard all the information about Jessica.
It turns out there are still a lot of people out there who suffer more than me, like Jessica. Inner Aldy
"When did you know him?" aldy asked with eyes glaring at Ken. Aldy and Ken have been close since childhood, but Ken never told her about Jessica.
"Since he broke my hand." Ken laughed with a shy smile.
"You remember, when I came home with a broken hand and I reasoned I had a minor accident." Ken reminds Aldy of what happened 7 years ago.
Aldy laughed after remembering it,
for the first time he saw Ken moaning in pain.
"So that was Jessica?" ask Aldy not to believe it. For a moment he forgot the tightness that was on his chest earlier.
"I'm wrong." Ken stroked the back of his neck and smiled faintly.
"What did you do to him, until he broke your hand?" Aldy glanced at Ken as if to say "Bad kid."
"My friends say she's a Female Wolf. No one dared to approach him and they challenged me. If I succeed don't make Jessica angry or upset. They'll spend me for a month." Ken smiled faintly as he ended his words.
"What are you doing?" ask Aldy curious. He still wants to know how close Ken is to his sister's Bodyguard candidate.
"I just bothered him a little when I finished training, I blocked his way home. He gave me a warning, I thought he was just kidding and it turns out he really broke my hand." Ken was very embarrassed to remember the events of those few years.
"Basic fool!" aldy said to Ken and they laughed together.
...-----------...
After returning from the cafe. Jessica pulled a suitcase in front of her closet and packed and tidied up all the things she was going to carry. Instantly his gaze was glued to a small box neatly stored in the closet drawer. Jessica grabbed the box.
"Dad... Mom, look at your daughter is big now," Jessica said, staring fixedly at a necklace covered in diamonds, a necklace given by her mother as her birthday gift, precisely their parting gift.
Jessica put the necklace in the small box, then put the small box into her suitcase.
Jessica breathed a sigh of relief after all her stuff had already gone inside the suitcase. He walked towards his small bed, a bed that was only enough for himself.
"Mother.I miss you." Jessica continued to repeat those words until she dissolved into her sleep and dreams.
..._____________...
In a very spacious luxury room that is only inhabited by one person, Aldy.
The man leaned his head against his study chair, staring fixedly at a photo located right next to his computer.
"Mother, Aldy and Kamila are now grown, and I'm healing there. We miss Mom" Aldy said.
A clear grain fell from his eyes, the man did not sigh, letting all the sadness he and Kamila had felt all along out.
After Aldy's father's departure, his mother was subjected to mental stress that had to be dealt with quickly. If not, it can be fatal.
For a long time the middle-aged woman had undergone special treatment in the State of S, almost 5 years he had left his two favorite children, letting them pass every exam without a mother beside them.
"Mother.I now realize, there are many people out there who suffer more than me. The exam they were facing was much heavier with what I was facing right now, even they had nowhere to lean." Aldy was reminded of the information he got from Ken about Jessica's life.
Although not yet seen Jessica directly Aldy is sure that the woman is a tough woman and has a heart that is as strong as a rock.
Tok....
Kamila knocked on the door, but there was no reply from the owner.
"Sister." Kamila shouted in annoyance as the door was locked from the inside.
"Sister Aldy, Ila wants to talk." Kamila was still shouting while banging on the door even louder.
"Sister... Did you hear me?" Kamila was screaming.
No answer from the owner of the room, Kamila dragged her feet away from Aldy's room. He abandoned his intention to plead with Aldy to let him out this weekend, to attend a massive downtown bazaar.
"What else does the girl want to say" muttered Aldy who just came out of the bathroom. He walked to the door and opened it, but he found no one in front of his room.
What more do you want, Miss Manja. Don't ask me any more strange things, I've been so dizzy because of the requests you've made lately.
Aldy dropped himself on a soft mattress while staring at the ceiling of his room, his body felt very tired and tired.
It didn't take long, he was already asleep in his sleep.
...______...
Cool air entered through the cracks of Jessica's bedroom window, making the woman wake up.
"In the morning, the sun has not yet appeared." Jessica stared out the window, pulling the blanket over her face. Because of the weekend, Jessica thought she wanted to continue her sleep.
Jessica's phone vibrated indicating a new message.
"Prepare yourself, I'll come pick you up at 07:00!" a message from Ken.
Spontaneous Jessica got out of bed, grabbed a towel and went into the bathroom.
Jessica had almost forgotten that important thing. Today, he will meet a very important person, more precisely, today he will knit his new destiny.
After finishing with the ritual bath, the,
Jessica opened the closet and picked up the suit she was going to wear to start her new life. He stared at his own reflection in the glass and fixed the ties of his slightly slanted hair.
"Perfect" said Jessica.
A smile on Jessica's pretty face, imagining a decent life could make Jessica smile like this.
Yeah, God. I hope happiness will be on my side this time.
