Promises From the Past

Mual

A few hours earlier....

Ryan's point of view....

When Ryan did the usual night activity until the count of 479 push-ups, the alarm sound of Rea's location sounded outside the watch zone.

As a bodyguard with the responsibility to always ensure Rea's safety, Ryan couldn't possibly heed that alarm.

So Ryan rushed out and started following Rea from behind, remembering the incident that made Rea shocked at noon. Of course he considers that at this time his employer just wants to find fresh air to improve the atmosphere.

But who would have thought, if Rea entered a special place for adults 18+, a night Club called After Night and still Ryan was still monitoring so that nothing bad happened to his employer.

And sure enough, from a distance Ryan a bartender gave Rea a glass of colored drink, suspicion began to appear in his mind. Where it is almost impossible for foreigners to offer a drink for free.

Thinks....'It seemed that the man knew that Rea was in a confused state, so he tried to take advantage of the situation and make a commercial profit.'

For a former member of the military, there is no such thing as thinking to strangers, everything certainly has a reason, so Ryan must think critically with all the worst possible things that will happen.

'Maybe, the man planned bad things with the drink he gave, I can't let my guard down.' Ryan thought somewhere.

'Maybe I should stop Rea before she drinks it.'

But just a few steps forward, one woman came over to Rea, and it also made Ryan stop.

A conversation between Rea and the minimalist-clad woman looks pretty familiar, but for two weeks of her job as the bodyguard who looks after Rea, she has never seen the woman.

There was nothing suspicious about Rea, but because the sound of music was loud enough to make Ryan did not hear words from the two of them.

After the woman left, Rea again enjoyed the drink in one gulp, but another glass came the same as the previous order.

Seeing Rea's condition that was like he was not himself, Ryan immediately asked him to stop drinking. Do not know if drinking orange juice like yellow orange it contains alcohol is quite high.

Obviously, because Rea is not strong enough to drink something with a high enough alcohol content.

Ryan immediately showed his anger towards the Bartender. The bartender's face was confused, as he did not feel that he had done anything wrong.

"I'm sorry sir, I don't know what you're talking about." He looked at Ryan strangely.

Ryan was also confused to understand the words of the bartender, only the words 'I don't know' had shown that he did not know.

Immediately from behind the suit Ryan pulled out a huge dictionary of 100 billion Indonesian English translations.

Stringing up a few words from the dictionary, Ryan tried to speak...

"You, you.you mi. mixed alcohol in this drink." Answer Ryan.

"yes it is like that."

Ryan's head shook his head indistinctly, the bartender was bewildered for a human who came to the Night Club and was angered by the alcoholic drink.

When Ryan wanted to take Rea out, the bartender called back.

"Mister, This lady has not paid for her order yet."

"What ?."

"Hmmm money, money." Speak with signal.

For that word Ryan understands... Without hesitation and care about the price, Ryan took out the hundred dollars he put on the table.

Not to forget, Ryan took the purchase receipt, because it became a guarantee that the money was returned after Rea realized later.

*******

Ryan carried Rea on his back to get out of the Club.

It was not difficult for Ryan to carry one or two people with one hand, especially Rea was not an overweight woman, even if it had to be compared to a 50 kg sack of rice, maybe both are almost the same.

"Just because of one person, it can make you like this." Ryan said he was offending Rea.

"I don't want to go home, I ... Mut*ah... It's so nauseous."

"Miss, wait, wait..." Ryan panicked

But all too late when Rea could not resist the nausea that reached the end of the throat.(.Hoeeeekkkkk)

"Geez, oh...."

Rea calmed down again, leaning his body on Ryan's back.

"Why is my life always not okay." Rea complained.

"Please don't tell me about life for now, I feel uncomfortable with my shirt."

"People think that everything I want is easy, but the truth is that I never get anything like my own."

Ryan didn't really know what life Rea had, seeing the wealth of a descendant in the Mavendra family made anyone envious.

But now, seeing as Rea is so moody about her own life, Ryan realizes what she has, even though she is the daughter of an Indonesian conglomerate, or education that supports a bright future, it does not make Rea happy.

"Miss, every human being has his own portion in life, problems must exist, no matter how well we avoid problems, it will come without excuse, but I'm sure everything will be fine."

"What are you talking about...."

"I'm sorry I gave you wise words."

"My head is dizzy, my stomach is nauseous.... I. I want to mut*ah."

"Miss wait."

(Hoekkkkkk)

When compared with the journey of Ryan's life is a kara, without relatives and abandoned by the community. When taken care of by the government and entered into the military academy became one of gratitude.

Despite being heavy with any form of harsh training, Ryan no longer needed to starve and sleep in a hut without a blanket.

Until he decides to quit, and get back into society, things don't change for the better. The life of the people was even harder than the military training the Soldiers went through.

Every human being is forced to follow the will of the majority, they cannot resist, because if that happens, they will be eliminated.

In Rea's drunken condition, Ryan couldn't possibly take her back to the dorm. Where Rea did not stop babbling so sneaking in without being caught by the dorm guard was impossible.

So Ryan looks for the cheapest hotel to let Rea rest. No one will ask why he brought a drunk woman into the hotel.

Receptionists only perform the task of providing check in and check out services for customers.

After Ryan got the room right away he took Rea in and put her on the bed.

"Although this is the cheapest, but still, one night equals one week of my salary." Ryan complained to see the rest in the wallet which is only a few sheets.

Forget about it, because for her now was a self-cleaning where the unpleasant aroma of her master's stomach contents that came out forcibly made anyone feel dizzy.

And just as Ryan was intending to go to the bathroom, Rea's hand stopped him.

"Don't go...." Rea

Hesitating for Ryan to look back...."Miss I have to clean up, it's uncomfortable."

"You've been gone a long time, and then come to make me fall in love, but why .... Everything's like this."

"Huh ?." Hearing Rea's words was out of sync with her answer.

Ryan turned his head because he felt there was something strange about Rea's answer, and it was true. If at this time, he was still in a state of unconsciousness, feeling stupid for hoping for anything else from a woman who was drunk.
