Replacement Liver Driver

Chapter 38. Bad Karma for Astika

Rama's legs limp to see Abi's corpse lying stiff in the morgue. He stared at the body of the brother who had been burnt by the fire that devoured his body. Rama's chest felt so tight, but tears would not flow from the net.

"Sir, patience, huh? It's Abi's way this way." Pradha took Rama into a hug while gently rubbing the lover's back.

"I am now alone in this world, Dha. No parents or brothers." Rama smiled bitterly remembering the solitude that would bind him.

"Sister, there's still me and Nakastra. Brother, don't be like this. Let's continue living together." Pradha releases a hug then encapsulates Rama's face.

Rama also stared intensely at the bead of the lover's eyes. He immediately realized that he had a responsibility to the woman before him. He should make Pradha and her baby happy.

Rama took Pradha into his arms. "Yes, Dha. Sorry for worrying you. Let's take care of Abi's body!"

***

That day one city was shocked with news of Abi's death. Astika sits languidly in front of a glass screen while looking at the news that broadcasts about the deadly accident that claimed the life of the lover.

"It's just a dream, isn't it? We just met. It can't be this way, it can't be!" astika shouted while holding her head and shook her head in frustration.

"This news IS A LIE!" The woman grabbed the ashtray on the table, then threw it at the TV.

Astika's cry broke instantly. Her chest of kempis held tightness in the chest. Tears continued to flow along with sobbing sobs.

The only reason Astika to stay strong in life is now gone forever. He cried as much as he hit the chest, hoping that the tightness that squeezed him was slightly reduced.

When Astika was busy wallowing in grief, she suddenly felt her stomach was very nauseous. Astika immediately ran to the bathroom. He spewed out his entire stomach.

"Gosh, what am I?" Astika wiped away the cold sweat that was now flooding her forehead.

Shortly after, he again released a clear liquid that tasted very bitter on the tongue. After her stomach was drained, Astika drooped lethargic on the bathroom floor. The woman leaned against the cold wall of the bathroom.

"That's a big deal, God. What did I eat wrong, anyway?"

Astika closed her eyes while recalling all the food that had entered her stomach. He has a history of torturous stomach disease. So, the woman thought she was eating wrong and made her stomach acid rise.

Astika again gathered strength and walked unsteadily out of the bathroom while resting on the wall. He finally arrived at his room with great difficulty. He laid his body on the bed, and began to close his eyes.

However, a second later the female net opened wide again. Astika just remembered that she did not menstruate for two months. The eyes of the beautiful woman were perfectly rounded. Astika immediately grabbed the wallet, then walked out of the house.

"I have to make sure of all this. Hopefully it's just stress!" Astika slammed the door and walked quickly to a pharmacy near her home.

The woman bought several pregnancy detection devices of various sizes and prices. He immediately returned home and dipped one by one the tool into urine that had been accommodated in a small glass.

Astika again sat down in a doldrums. She stared at the pregnancy hormone detector on the floor. All of them show line two.

"This device is definitely wrong! It can't be like this! This must be all wrong!" shouts Astika frustrated.

After trying to accept the fact that she is pregnant, Astika again has to accept her bad karma. This time the video Pradha had recorded when she finished making love with Abi was widely spread on social networks.

Astika's body shivered in the corner of the room. The woman continued to bite her thumb fingernails while muttering indistinctly. His body swayed forward and back in a curled up position.

"That's not me. That woman is not me. They've edited that video because they hate me." The words came out of Astika's lips repeatedly.

Somehow, Astika remembered Pradha. He suspected that Pradha was the one who spread the video. He thinks the cousin has to account for everything.

Astika immediately grabbed the key of the motorbike, and forwarded it to split the streets of Denpasar which is still quiet. Even a tinge of orange sun had not yet appeared in the vast sky.

Fifteen minutes later, Astika arrives in front of Pradha's house. He pressed the bell like an infidelity man. Feeling Pradha ignore her, the woman screams her cousin's name repeatedly.

Astika pressed the bell again, and continued shouting. Even the woman shook the iron fence causing a noise. This led one of Pradha's neighbors to leave the house and approach her.

"Geek, what's wrong with you?" ask a middle-aged woman named Santi.

"I am nyari Pradha! You know where this crazy woman is right now?" ask Astika with a high tone of speech.

The middle-aged woman frowned. He looked at Astika from toe to head with a dislike look. Actually he was very disturbed because of Astika.

"Nak Pradha is in the hospital. Every night, he would sleep there to be always close to his son."

Without saying thank you or excuse me, Astika passed by leaving Santi. That made Santi shake. The lips of the middle-aged woman were unceasingly nagging because of Astika's attitude.

"I'll beat you up, Dha! How dare you spread that video!"

Astika kept turning the gas lever of her motor until she reached the hospital. Arriving at the health service, he immediately sought Pradha's whereabouts. The woman walked quickly down the hospital corridor.

Until Astika finally saw Pradha who had just come out of the hospital cafeteria. He half ran over to Pradha, then grabbed Astika's hair roughly.

"Basic bitch! How dare you spread the video to the public! I'll teach you a lesson!" Astika keeps pulling Pradha's hair.

"Before Tika! You why?" Pradha continued to rebel and pulled Astika's wrist to escape the grip of the cousin's hand.

The woman took Pradha to a hospital lobby that began to bustle with several patients. He pushes Pradha's rough slender body to the ground. The mother of the Nakastra was hissing because it held the pain on the scalp.

Slowly Pradha got up from the floor and stared intently at Astika who was starting to craze. Astika circulated the views to all those in the hospital lobby. They looked at Astika and Pradha while frowning and whispering to each other.

"See this woman! Do you know him? She is Pradha Ratnamaya, a former actress who cheated on her with her sister-in-law!" Astika shouted while pointing at Pradha's face.

"This woman now wants revenge on me for exposing her affair to the public! He edited the video and replaced it with my face, then spread the footage to social media!" accuse Astika.

"Tika, stop!" exclaim Pradha while clenching her teeth.

"What's? You don't accept me exposing your adultery?" Astika smiled slantingly and then walked over to Pradha.

The woman looked at Pradha with a slanted smile. Not to forget Astika folded her arms in front of her chest. Pradha also narrowed her eyes trying to channel her dislike to Astika through a sharp gaze.

"You've been exposed to karma, haven't you? Your baby was born deformed because of your bad deeds!"

Pradha's blood seemed to boil hearing Astika's words. He doesn't accept Nakastra being called a cripple. In reality, the condition of the son is getting better by the day.

"Then it's not a handicapped child! I think your brain is defective, Tik!" Pradha's jaws hardened, his hands clenched beside the body.

"You, dare!" Astika began to float her arms into the air, and prepared to land them on Pradha's smooth cheeks.

However, Pradha manages to capture Astika's arm. He stared at the cousin. A sarcastic smile trrukor on the lips of the beautiful woman.

"You want to deny reality? You wimps!"
