Time allows 07:00, Arion and Karina walk side by side towards the dining table. There was already waiting for Satya, Riska, Li, Elina, and Gerry.
Those who were originally seated immediately stood up and bowed to greet Karina and Arion. Karina and Arion nodded in response.
Riska looked dumbfounded looking at Karina who was staring at her with probing eyes.
"Ha-helo Sister. Good mornin. I am Riska the wife of Kak Satya. Please guide him," said Riska nervously.
Riska introduces herself again fearing Karina forgets who she is.
"Oh. Hello," Karina replied, indifferently.
Karina sat down followed by Arion and his five subordinates.
Riska felt awkward with Karina's indifferent answer. Fortunately, he was told by Satya that Karina was.
They eat quietly. After breakfast, Satya resigned himself first to take Riska to school and then continued to the casino.
Gerry, Li, and Elina Karina order to go to the casino, helping Satya with her duties. Darwis has not been able to return to the casino with his condition still deteriorating.
Arion wants Karina to accompany him to Jaya Grub branch company. Yes, the Wijaya family company has changed its name to Jaya Grub.
Unfortunately Karina refused on the grounds of a meeting about the plan to move the capital. Finally Arion left alone to the branch company.
Stay Karina alone in this residence along with the servants. Karina stepped into the garden to refresh her mind for a moment before the online meeting.
It looks like the waiter is cleaning the leaves scattered on the ground. The servant bowed respectfully to Karina. Karina simply nodded, sitting on one of the park benches.
"Ah autumn," murmured Karina closed her eyes with a still troubled feeling.
When are you gonna wake up?
Karina opened her eyes, staring at the bright blue sky. Karina's eyes widened then smiled wryly as she looked at the illusion she had created involuntarily. Enji and Joya are smiling wide without burden.
Ah forget. I can't drag on in grief! I still have a lot of responsibilities to take care of!
Karina rubbed her face violently. Seeing time then stand up, walk into the house.
Karina headed for her room which moved to the first floor. Sit at the study table, turn on the laptop for the meeting.
Karina grabbed the file next to the laptop. Reread the meeting this time.
At exactly 09:30, the meeting began. The capital's location plan is 30 percent ready. There are still two months to complete the plan. In the fourth month targeted to have started the planned construction completed within two years.
The meeting only lasted for an hour. The short and dense talk managed to summarize the time.
After the meeting, Karina took a short break. Drink and eat snacks from the kitchen.
Next Karina checked the development of Tirta Garden. It's true Karina's prediction. Just a week open, Tirta Garden has been visited by many visitors both from domestic and international.
Karina smiled faintly at the profit generated from Tirta Garden. Karina then intends to look around the stock market. He had not bought shares for long.
"Eh? What the fuck?"
Karina is surprised to make the stock price of the company alm. Grandpa Bram crawled down. Karina immediately contacted Arion, as the company was under the control of Jaya Grub company.
"Assalamualaikum, Ar," said Karina.
"Waalaikumsalam, darling. What's up?"sahut Arion whose tone was very calm.
"none. Just curious about the declining share price of BWJ Company. Don't you know yet?"karina answered with her eyes focused on the diagram showing a red arrow moving down slowly.
"Oh that problem. I already know. Hah ... just a small matter, dear. There's nothing to worry about. I'll take care of it soon. Sorry to worry you."
"Oh. All right then. I'm just curious. You still in the company?"ask Karina.
"Yes. There's a little obstacle here. I'll be home for lunch. I'm sorry I couldn't keep you company" said Arion.
"Well! My husband since your company changed your name, you've been getting busy, haven't you?"karina Goda.
"What matters is that my time with you doesn't change, right? My dear, if I may choose I will take you to live in the countryside without having to be distracted by all things urban and corporate. Unfortunately it's hard not even possible."
Karina gasped at Arion's wishes. Honestly, he was tired of all the endless work. Karina breathed a rough sigh.
"That will come true someday" Karina said.
"Yes by the time we had half a dozen children. I will wait for that moment to arrive" replied Arion accompanied by a crispy ruckus.
"Hm. All right, I gotta get back to work. I closed yes. The spirit is always my husband, love you. Assalamualaikum," said Karina.
"Waalaikumsalam Darling. Love you too, my wife" Arion replied.
Karina smiled.
Karina is back to focusing on the laptop screen. No stock caught his attention. The share price of BWJ Company is not going down or up. Karina doesn't take a headache.
Half of her work has been handled by Sasha, Aleza, Lila, and Raina. Lila and Raina are still working.
They feel embarrassed if they apply for leave due to old pregnancy even though Karina herself who is pregnant is old soon giving birth and carrying two children remain to work in the company without significant difficulties.
Ah recalls less than a month longer the two children again, Karina remembered with baby equipment that had not been prepared even though Mary almost every day reminded.
The room has not been prepared. Karina smiled shyly as she rubbed her stomach. From here Karina will prepare everything.
Karina checked her schedule. There was no more meeting. Karina. Uh No.
The company is in order, what about the mafia, cafes, restaurants, and casinos? Karina grunts.
Looking at a time that almost shows 12:00. Karina's phone rang, message notification.
Karina clucked bitterly after reading the message. Arion can't come home for lunch. The problem is not finished.
Yes okay. He's in a lot of trouble.
Karina's bedroom door was knocked from the outside. Since this room was actually not her usual room, Karina had to open the door manually.
The butler looked down respectfully at Karina.
"What's wrong?"asked Karina flat.
"Miss, it's lunch time. You gonna eat in the dining room or what?"ask the butler with great politeness.
"I'm going to the dining room. Go awayl. I'll catch up" replied Karina.
Karina went back into the room, picked up her bag and cell phone and stepped out of the room towards the dining table.
Karina's eyes narrowed at her lunch menu.
There was a whole head that Karina guessed was the head of a goat. There are some big eyeballs, fish eyeballs. One more menu that Karina does not know the name and what it is made of.
"What's this?"ask Karina wonder.
"This is the lunch menu for today, Miss," replied the butler.
"This is pacha, this one is sauteed tuna, and this one is haggis," explained the butler introducing the menu served on the table.
Karina shook her head slowly looking at the menus. Karina felt it was foreign and strange.
"Rian made the menu list?"ask Karina.
The butler nodded. The butler himself was already sweating coldly.
"Fuck you, Rian!"gerutu Karina, upset with Rian who brought home a strange menu.
The waiters emptied the dining table from the lunch menu. The kitchen section went straight to work making steaks for Karina.
Waiting for her lunch to finish, Karina took out a tablet to check the course of her cafe and restaurant.
Some go up and down. But the overall turnover keeps growing. Cafes and restaurants whose turnover rose managed to cover whose turnover decreased even more.
Karina turned her head towards the living room when she heard the sound of footsteps entering the house. Karina's forehead shriveled thinly to find Riska who had returned home from school. Time is still showing at 12:20.
"You truant?"ask Karina directly.
Riska who was about to go upstairs gasped softly, surprised. Riska turned around and looked at Karina with a tense face. Riska forgot that Karina was in this residence.
Fearfully Riska stepped up, closing in on Karina.
"Why cheek?"asked Karina again after seeing a plaster wound on Riska's cheek.
As Karina remembered that face this morning was fine. Riska reflexes holding her plastered cheek.
"You fighting or what?"
Karina's tone turned cold. Riska moved her hand in protest.
"We were attacked on our way home, brother," Riska replied.
Riska called us because she came home with a driver and two bodyguards assigned to deliver and pick up Riska.
"Groaned?"
Riska nodded.
"But Big Brother need not worry. I was only lightly injured and also I did not truant, Brother. Saturday we go home at 12:05" Riska said.
"Hm. I know," said Karina Flat.
Karina looked at Riska fixedly.
"What weapon did you use? What wounds are they?"karina asked coldly but Riska felt a warmth there.
"It's just a bullet wound, brother. After marriage, Satya gave me a gun as a defensive weapon" Riska replied, touching her cheek and then putting her backpack on the chair.
Riska took the gun she had stored in the bag. Riska then gave it to Karina.
Karina didn't take it, just looked.
"Oh this type, you're a good fit to use it. Save it," said Karina.
Riska immediately put the gun back.
"Open that plaster!"tell Karina.
"Ah? But Kak …."
Riska doubts.
"For a woman a wound on the face is a disaster. If you're a general who lives in the days of the kingdom, the wound on the face is a matter of pride. But now it is a reproach, an insult, and an insecurity. Even if you were an honorable princess, you would still be sneered at with that wound" Karina said.
Karina drank the orange juice served earlier. Riska holds the plaster's doubt. Grimacing when opening it slowly.
Karina's eyes turned cold again. The wound on Riska's right cheek is quite deep and long. Red patches are visible around the wound. Riska held onto her sore cheek.
"Get me a medicine box!"
"Sit next to me" said Karina coldly.
Riska sat down with fear. The waiter thrust the medicine box at Karina. Before treating Riska, Karina first cleans both hands. Karina cleans Riska's wound first.
Once clean, Karina took something from inside her bag. A colored box, Karina opened the box.
Some syringes that have been filled with light blue liquid. Karina took one and injected it into Riska's arm. Riska grimaced softly as the needle pierced her skin.
"What is Brother?"ask Riska curiously.
"Antibiotics" Karina answered briefly.
Karina took something back from her bag. A white jade colored bottle complete with a war emblem and a rose on Karina's body took.
Karina opened the bottle. The scent of lavender penetrates Riska's sense of smell.
It's a medicinal cream. When applied topically, Riska feels a cool and fresh sensation that repels the pain.
"Use this cream three times a day. In three days the wound will be gone, your face will be smooth again" said Karina.
"Really Brother?"
Riska's eyes sparkled. Karina nodded.
"Thank you very much, Brother!"riska said happily, standing up and bowing respectfully to Karina.
Back along the way home after he was attacked, Riska pensively pensive with her injured face, even if healed would definitely leave a mark. But now Riska doesn't have to worry about her injuries anymore.
"Go get ready, after lunch we will go to the casino" Karina said.
"Casino? Okay brother!"
Riska quickly grabbed the medicine bottle and bag, running towards the room to prepare. Karina shook her head slowly, smiling slightly.
Karina immediately ate her lunch of beef steak after the menu was served in front of her.
"Ah bring here the menu list that Rian compiled," said Karina after finishing eating.
"Good, Miss."
The butler immediately picked it up and handed it to Karina.
"When was this book compiled?"ask Karina.
"About three months ago, Miss," replied the butler.
It turns out that strange and unique menu is only served twice a month, namely in the first and third weeks.
Riska came down wearing jeans, a t-shirt, and a hat. Her hair was tied up. Riska looks beautiful and cute.
"Uncle, what's the lunch menu today?"ask Riska.
The butler answered.
"The eyes of the tuna fish? Seriously?"
The butler nodded. Karina raised one eyebrow looking at Riska's eyes which again sparkled happily. Riska immediately headed for the kitchen, returning with a plate filled with sauteed tuna eyes complete with warm rice.
"Who ate the menu?"ask Karina.
The pen that Karina was holding, was placed on the table.
"Mr Satya and Mrs Joya, Miss. Mr. Satya and Darwis ate it a little" replied the butler.
Karina sighed, returning the menu book.
Let it be, Inner Karina.
