"How was the first day of work at the office?"
Just when Cheryl got home, she was confronted with a question from Janu. Not usually the man is already at home and relax in the living room while smoking a cigarette.
"Well, good!" The answer.
Cheryl approached Janu and sat down in front of the man. "You're home early?" tanyakanya.
Janu smiled as if mocking Cheryl's question. The man raised his injured arm. "You remember this? I can't get into the office."
Cheryl felt as if Janu was regrowing her guilt. Because of him, Janu has not been able to work.
"Have you started dating in the office?" Janu Ejek.
Cheryl looked at the man. "You think I work for it?"
"Oh, no? I guess you're happy to announce to the other employees that you're the financial director's girlfriend there." Janu starts teasing his wife.
"What's your goal in writing my single status so that I'm free to date in the office?" asked Cheryl in a annoyed tone.
"Aren't you glad I gave you freedom?" reply Janu.
"I'd rather you divorce."
"Haha ... If it is, I don't want to."
It doesn't seem that easy to ask for a divorce from Janu. Cheryl will focus on finding the document while working on raising money.
"By the way ... It turns out that the president of Atmajaya Sentosa is a woman, huh? I salute him for bringing the company to be as big as it is now. It motivates me that a woman can also have a successful career."
Cheryl's words just now unknowingly made Janu's old wounds come back. He clenched his hand holding anger against the side he suspected was the slaughter of his family.
"Quick get out of here! Your body stinks!" expel Janu. Suddenly the man turned fiercely on Cheryl.
"What the hell? You stink! The smoking job continues!" refute Cheryl.
"Go or do I kiss?" menacam Janu's.
Cheryl is disgusted by Janu's attitude towards her. He chose to get out of there.
"Basic freak!" his gerrick.

"Master, I've re-schedule your activities during illness. Meetings with some potential investors could be postponed as early as next month."
Finn brought a pile of work from the office that Janu needed to sign. While his boss was sick, he handled the CEO's duties at the company.
"Are the two wands that almost killed Cheryl healthy again? I can't wait to beat them up" Janu said.
Instead of talking about work, he asked something else.
"I don't know, Sir. I'll ask Thor later, he's on duty to guard there."
"If you're healthy, let me know!"
"You should also pay attention to your own health, sir. How do you beat them with a wounded hand?"
"I still have two legs that are enough to crush their bodies" Janu said in a fiery tone.
Instantly Janu looks feigned limp. "I'm going to take a week off" he said.
The condition of the wound on his hand is solely for reasons not to go to work temporarily. He also used the same excuse to make Cheryl feel sorry for him.
Drrt ... Drrt ....
Finn picked up his phone. The call from Silvia went to her number. "Master, Mrs Silvia called," she said.
Janu is actually very lazy to take care of the woman. "Give me!" Janu's orders.
He received the phone Finn gave him. "Hello?" sapana.
"Oh, my second son can finally be contacted as well. Why is your departure so long, dear?"
Silvia's voice from the other end of the phone sounded melodious and meek. However, the voice was like torture when it was heard by Janu.
"I'm preparing for Mommy's return. I've managed to get into Atmajaya Sentosa's company through the hands of others" Janu said. Every time he listened to her talk, he was hypnotized.
"That's smart, Janu. Mommy's proud of you. Unfortunately, Daddy Damian here seems a little troubled because he was left behind by you. How about you come back here soon?"
Janu. Such a request would definitely end up bothering him. However, every time he intended to refute, the pain of the lash on his back seemed to come back hot.
"Well, next week I'll be home" Janu said.
"Thank you, honey. You are a child we can count on."
Janu turns off the phone and returns it to Finn. He rubbed his face rough feeling back the heavy burden he had to bear.
"Are you sure you're going home?" ask Finn worried.
"Do I have a choice?" janu's tone was like a person in despair.
Finn felt sorry for his boss. Although he does not know exactly what kind of hard life he lived, but from the scars all over Janu's body has explained everything. Silvia and Damian are cruel parents.
"I've always imagined you could live in peace in a secluded place that is peaceful and untouched by evil people. You have to live happily there with the people you love" Finn said.
Janu chuckles to hear Finn suddenly becoming poetic. "Maybe I have to kill a lot of people to make it happen" he said.
"You can resist if you don't like something, sir."
"I knew. I really want to do it. But, I don't think I can yet with Silvia."
Janu felt both his body and mind were still controlled by the woman.
