“Mother, did you get the money?” haifa asked as she put on a slightly ugly makeup similar to the one she had worn on Lintani earlier.
“Haifa! What the hell are you doing? You're so ridiculous, son!” said Rauja as soon as he saw the face and behavior of his son.
“Mother, I should have been the one in that car, and not Lin, how unlucky I am!”
“What did you say? Look, I've taken everything from Lin, even this luxury apartment card!” Rauja said as she put together a messy and overwhelming amount of money from inside her bag.
“Really?” Haifa smiled in anguish, taking the apartment card from her mother's hand. He had better plans and still maintained his reputation as an artist without having to damage his pride in front of Askelan.
Lintani really does not know if the man she serves is the number one man in Hill City, the only person who can conquer the highest peak of Harrad family power in just one night, where he had been framed by some of his own brothers.
Such a situation quickly turned around, he who should not be in a state of hugging the woman of the night, but, it looked so fresh even, could put some bandits into prison and make the mastermind of the trapping die instantly in his hands.
While Haifa was still thinking about the plan, the car that Askelan was driving was moving in one direction, towards The Southampton Hotel. The girl continues to follow while telling Askelan who it is to Rauja, including all her plans. She will change into a woman who has served with all her heart.
Meanwhile, Lintani is crying in a taxi that takes her to the outskirts of town and then turns into a winding street, she knows the place. A small village near the beach that became a nest of exiles, people who had been imprisoned, or former mafia people. In this place, illegal immigrants are usually.
“Do you really want to stay in a place like this?” ask Simon, the taxi driver who delivered it with a high enough payment. Lintani took a little of the money she had given Rauja just to survive in exile.
“Ya!” Lintani answered still with tears.
“Will I show you a place where you can live a quiet life, and you become a better human being, instead of being more evil.”
“I don't know what to do, I've been destroyed and have no one. My family just dumped me!” Lintani was still crying while hugging the small bag, the only one of hers that was returned when she came out of prison.
“Alright, come with me!”
The taxi driver took Lintani to a different place, even further away from the place, through a narrower road and many trees. Then they stopped at a small restaurant on the side of the road.
“Down!” The taxi driver asks Lintani to follow him.
“Where, this?”
“This is a safer place than your destination. Comeing! I'll introduce you to, Yesa.”
Workers will usually stop by just unwind or fill their stomachs. The place was not crowded, only the atmosphere was so familiar that between customers and restaurant owners almost like relatives.
Lintani is reunited with Yesa, a friendly curly-haired fat woman. He only lived a kara and the food stall was his only source of income. Eventually it was there that Lintani lived and worked to help and earn a salary from Yesa.
In her heart she was so grateful to have met someone like Simon. He promised that if he had the money, he would meet and give the taxi driver a gift of thanks.
Yesa simply gave Lintani a job as a waiter and cleaned dirty glasses or dishes. In addition, other work is done alone and a servant who has been working longer.
All the work that is charged to Lintani can be done well, so Yesa is not too difficult to teach him about how to be friendly. The girl is already adept at doing it because, her experience of being a money-making clown for the Lux family.
“I was lucky to meet you Lin, if I had a child like you I would marry you to a rich man so that your life would be happy,” said Yesa when she saw Lintani's work that was so perfect from day to day. Even his job became easier thanks to Lintani's presence with him.
“Auntie, just think of me as your son but to me the wealth of a person does not guarantee his happiness is perfect.”
“ya like that all this time I know but it turns out most people are wrong after all proof that poor people do not live well if they can not meet their needs.”
“ya aunt right but still wealth is not everything.”
Lintani could say so because of her experience when it comes to pretending to be poor among socialites, being a beggar by comforting the rich. This proves that the rich people still need themselves as entertainers.
He was there to dance or to be a clown so they could laugh. So the little boy who later became an adult in the prison also thought if the wealth they had could not guarantee them happiness.
But something happened a few weeks later, Yesa did not come to her food store, which was only a few meters away from her home. The fat woman was always lying in bed because of the pain.
Since Yesa was sick, then a man who was also fat came and claimed to be the son of Yesa. He had never come because Yesa hated him, he was not a filial son and was often angry with his mother.
One day, Lintani feels uneasy because Yesa's son often complains about her work and is rude to her. When there was a customer he did not hesitate to yell and humiliate Lintani, until all the customers who were mostly men followed him.
He was determined to leave because he did not feel at home working there because he was more tired of facing people like him than washing a glass full of one bucket. Yesa handed the little restaurant to her son. So, Lintani would not be willing if he had to continue being a rude employee like Aunt Yesa's son. That man is worse than Luxor.
‘Ah, two more days I got my salary and I will be leaving soon from there’ thought Lintani while washing dirty glasses.
“Hai, Lin, whatever your job is, you wash like a snail!” snapped at the fat man, without looking at the customer who came in a neat suit and was riding a black Bantley when he came.
